STREET OBSTRUCTION:—MR. EDITOR,
SIR.—We are all looking for light on a
certain by-law, which prohibits ob-
structions on certain streets. I notice
that several of our merchants have
erected steps or. placed planks before
their doors. Now, I want to know if
these gentlemen can do so according to
the by-law ? If they can, I certainly
shall put salt barrels before -my fron-
tage. Yours truly, RATEPAYER.
A TREAT FOR SHOW GOERS.—Our
amusement seekers will be glad to learn
that one of the largest—if' not the largest
—show in the country, will visit ns on.
�i4ednesday, June lat, as Shelby, Pull-
man az. Hamilton's circus and menagerie
will visit Seaforth on that date. It
will comprise a large circus company of
the very best artists ; a full and rare
collection of wild animals, including a
large herd of elephants ; a marine
aquarium ;; a very extensive museum,
and many other attractions. It will
travel by rail, and give one of the larg-
est and most gorgeous of street proves-
sions. The proprietors have the repu-
tation of always dealing fairly by the
public, and keeping all their promises,
and we do not doubt that their pre-
sent show is everything that they claim
for it.
HIGH SCIOOL REPORT.—The official
report of High -School attendance and
grants for 1880, has just been issued by
the Education Department. There are
now 105 schools, or counting off 16 Col-
legiate Institutes, there are 89 High
Schools. Judged by the Government
grants distributed to these in 1880, our
school ranks 28th. In other words,
there were only 27 High Schools en-
titled to a higher grant, while 61 schools
received less, among them many of the
oldest schools in the Province, as Brock,
Ville, Napanee, Dundas, Paris, Windsor
and others. Had not the Galt Col-
legiate Institute received its special
grant of $750, irrespective of everything
but its class, our school would have
• stood several places above it. The re-
port is, no doubt, only a crude standard
of comparison, yet we are glad to see
that our school takes no mean position,
especially when we remember that it
was in operation only two years at the
time of the report.

E LATE AaHER: CoBBNS. We had
bar ly time last week before going to
pre s, to notice the death by drowning
of Mr. Asher Cosens, Son of N. Cosens,
Esq., of Tuckersmith. The young man
had been attending the High School in
this town for several months, preparing
himself for the forthcoming teacher's
examination as he intended writing for
a second class certificate. After school
was dismissed on Thursday of last week,
Mr. Cosens with a number of his fellow
pupils went to the mill pond at Eg-
mondville to have a bathe. The day
was very warm and the water was still
cold. Hewes not an- expert swimmer.
He was only a very short time in the
water when he suddenly disappeared
and never rose alive again. Whether
he took cramps or got beyond
his depth, is not known, and the
real reason of the accident will
probably for ever remain a mystery.
The body was in the water a consider-
able time before it was found although
search for it was immediately com-
menced and diligently prosecuted. At
• length it was found about the middle
of the dam in very deep water, but,
whether it had floated thither or wheth-
er it was found at or near the spot
where it sunk is not definitely known.
Of course when found life was extinct.
The melancholy tidings were at once
conveyed to his home and his father
just arrived on the scene a few minutes
after the remains of his boy were taken
from the water. It was indeed a sad
sight for him, and his feelings can be
more easily imagined than described.
The body was at once conveyed home.
The funeral took place on Saturday and
was very largely attended.; The fellow
pupils of the departed attended the
funeral in a body, and headed by their
teachers marched in procession in front
of the hearse from Mr. Cosen's residence
to Turner's cemetery where the inter-
ment was made. On the following day
the funeral sermon was .preached in
Turners' church by the pastor, and was
listened to by a very large and deeply
affected congregation.
Young Cosens was just 21 years of
age. He had taught school for several
years in what is known as the West
End school house in Tackeramith. He
resigned his situation there last January
and. has since been attending the High
School in this town. He was a genial,,
affable, pleasing young man, and was a
