To the Editor of the Huron Expositor. DEAR SIR :-We have had beautiful weather here for the last two months. The crop has been harvested in first- .0ifiss order, and the farmers are now i busily engaged threshing. Th yield is eery good this year, eepecially i wheat and. oats. Potatoes are a fair Crop, but not BO good as they were Rota:year cesingtto the dry weath,er. Vegetables of all kinds are a splendid crop- Mr. c. B. Dablea is now busily engaged with his new steam thresher. He, has engaged D.. -Campbell, of Tiger Hills, to manage the thresher, and George Smart, of Cyprus Valley, to ,r me the engiue. The price of threshing here is, oats 4. and wheat 5c. per bushel. The roads are very good here at present, and one can drive over the prairie any- where. Wild ducks are very plentiful on the Cyprus River and lakes. The Indians shot a large elk a few days ago a short distance from here. They brougbt it to town, and we had the pleasure of eating elk meat, which we purchased from the noble red, men. It tastes very much like beef, in fact an inexperienced person could not tell it from beef. Mr. Willis, of the Norquay House, purchased the head and horns, which roake a really beautiful orna- ment. They were the largest I ever BaW. - . . eh Norquay Civic Holiday was held on the 15th of September. Duck sbootipg Was all the game through the day and dancing at night. Sides were chosen in the morning for the shooting match and the question was who would pay for the supper; the losingside, of course. Well, now, I am not going to tell you which side I was on, because- I had to hell) to foot the bill at night. However, we had a very good time. Many a duck and chicken came to an untimely death that day by the un- merciful hand of the determined sports- man. After they all had gathered in, about seven o'clock, in the evening, dinner was served by mine host and hostess of the Norquay House, where each did ample justice to the inner man. After they bad finished here, they departed with their ladies to the dancing hall opposite on the same street, where they tripped the light fantastic tee until the wee area' hours. Messrs. Watts, Fetch at Co. are still trucking4n saw logs and cutting them as -fast as they carte in, and yet they 'cannot keep up the supply of lumber. .Town lots are selling from $35 to $60 at present. Several houses are now on the way to be ready for winter. Good sand can be got within a few minutes walk from here, but lime is worth 50c. per bushel. Carpenters are scarce here at present, and people are anxious to get their building done before the cold weather sets in. Everybody appears to be bnsy and have all they can do. Some are flowing, others threshing, and more drawing logs to the mills to get a little lumber to fix up their build- ings for winter. Yours, &c., JACOB DIRRL, JR. NORQEAY, September 21, 1881. a business with daily expenses of $800. There are enterprising lumber firms at Mudge flay, Providence Bay, Lonely Bay, Spanish River, Blind River, Thessalon, and elsewhere. Hoping you will excuse this intrusion on your space, I am, yours in progress, LOUIS N. TRIBileDEATJ, -Rydal Bank P. O.• September 80, 1881. immonimmir • Perth Items. Fullarton fall show will be held at that village on October 13sh. -Mr. George Frame, of Downie, threshed from twenty acres sown, 615 bushels of fhll wheat. Ten acres of it was Gipsy and ten -Seneca. -Mr. Grant, a Strathroy merchant, arrived in St. Mary's the other morn- ing, having come all the way, a -die- tame of 40 Miles, on his bicycle in five hours and a half. -The sale of stock at Eden •fterm, Josiah Murphy's, Logan, last week did not realize well, many of the ani- mals advertised were not sold. . Few buyers were present. ' a -The cheese maker at Squire's fac- tory in Logan, Mr. T. Stacey, has taken two first and two second prizes at both the Toronto and Provincial Exhibitions. Mr. Stacey understandsehis businese. -The ladies of St. Ma's canvassed the town for money and clothing to send to the Michigan sufferer% Their -efforts procured $150 in cash and two large boxes of clothing. - Mr. J. G. Tremain, of Listowel, had the misfortune to lose eleven Valu- able sheep last week, the whole of them being killed in one night, it is supposed, by a wild cat. ---Knox church, in St. Mary's, will celebrate its anniversary on Sabbath next. Rev. R. J. Laidlaw; of Hamil- ton, will preach on Sabbath and deliver a lecture at the tea -meeting on Monday evening. -On the last day of the Mitchell fair, Mr. Martin Baird, of Fullartoe, had his pocket picked of $175. The money was not missed until he had nearly reached home, when he returned to town to look for it, but without suc- cess, as he had no idea who committed the theft. - Mr. Houston, cheese maker at Fule larton factory, received. two first prizes at the Provincial for white cheeses. One worth $15, being ist prize for three white cheeses, made daring August, and the other worth $35, being lst prize on five white cheeses made at different times, said times decided upon by the Association, -Another wife -beater, Richard Mc- Carroll, is heard of at Stratford Police Court. He got 20- days in gaol. Also strange to say a woman named Abigail Emmons figured before the same court on a charge of assaulting and wounding her husband. The result was the in- fliction of a fine of $10 or 20 days in jail. -The friends of 'Mr. IL W. Currie, formerly of Mitchell, now of Rapid City, Manitoba, will be pleased to learn that he is prospering in the Northwest.' Mr. Currie is a candidate for the county of Brandon at the coming election for the Legislature of that country, and has a most favourable chance of being elected. -A. young man named William De- war who has been for some time in the employ of Hess Bros., Listowel, was surprised the other day while busy with his paint brush, by a visit from his father who had been absent many years in Australia and was supposed by his children to be dead, The father had accumulated a fortune in Australia and had returned to Ontario for his children, a daughter and the young man above mentioned. Such a romance in real life does not occur eve*, -day. -Mr. John Kelly, Jr., Shakespeare, was the heaviest man altogether in Leicester sheep at the- Provincial Ex- hibition. He had the finest lot on the ground. They are what they cadl Border Leicesters, in contradistinction to Bakewell and Yorkshire Leicesters. The Border and Yorkshire Leicesters' are about the same size, and there is but very little difference in the two. Mr. Kelly,h as a large flock of Border sheep, which he has imported from James Nelvin, of Midlothian, Scotland. He took first on shearling ram, second on ram lamb, first and second on breed- ing ewes, first for best bred Canadian, and diploma for best pen of Sheep, whether imported or not. -On Tuesday evening last week as a farmer said to be from the township of Howick was leaving Listowel, after having disposed of a load of grain, two young men, both strangers, asked him for a ride a short distance and took seats beside him in the waggon. One of them pretended to want change for a ten dollar bill, and the unsuspecting farmer ready to accommodate the stranger, took out his pocket book for the purpose. One of the parties taking advantage of the opportunity seized the pocket book and made his escape in company with his mate. The consta- bles could not find these parties when they went on their trail some time afterwards. It is supposed that they were some of the gang that plied their trades next day at the fair. 1114.011111=111111M1 Algoma and _Maalitorilin. Mn. EDITOR, -DEAR SM. -Seeing the ignorance and prejudice which prevails in many parts of settled Ontario, and knowing that your paper has a large circulation, I beg to trouble your read- -tars with a few items of interest. In a few years we are sure of two lines of railway. One built - by the Syndicate and the other will be built by private individuals. Work is now going forward_ on the railway from Spanish River to • Alpma Mills, a distance of sixty nailes. Several surveyors are engaged surveying new townships. They as a rule report the soil good, and free from rolling stone. Every where in the district crops are pod. Yesterday I saw citrons, potatoes, tomatoes and grain fresh and peen. Algoma is just now deservedly attracting outside at- tention. When the Manitoulin exhibits were sent to the Exhibition, those in charge of them were asked if that place was not in British Columbia, while others thought it wee in the North- west. Such ignorance! When will people know that Manitoulin is an island in Lake Huron, and that it is the largest island in fresh water; that it has eight flourishing villages; that it has twelve townships; that it is ninety-five miles long by forty • in width; that it has a population of ten thousand whites, with a large Indian trade and population ; that it has abundance of. good land, good water, and fifty-two lakes; that grain, grass, roots and vegetables grow well there. When the mass of the people realize this fact, they will enquire and find. out that it is only one hundred and ten miles from Owen Sound, and that it is a part of Algoma, District. Let it be known that Algoma is ite large as the rest of Ontario ; that it has a popula- tion of twenty thousand.; that it ex- tends from French River on the east to the head of Lake Superior on the west; • that it has the most locations, and the richest mines in Canada; that it has the best fisheries in Canada; that the timber 'limits are almost inexhaustible; that the tie and post trade is simply enor- mous; that we have good fertile lands, in manylocases free froin stone; and such persons will be surprised. The settlers are making great progress. Large clearings are yearly made, build- ings are being put up, school sections are formed and supported, churches are 'built, and every effort is being put forth to make Algoma, as it will be, one of the fairest parts of Canada's proud Dominion. We are happy to say that our district is thus far settled with a brave, sober, industrious, -and better than all, -in- telligent people, many of whom have had experience in a new country. We assert that the settlers here have made more substantial progress in five years, than the first settlers of Huron or Bruce did in ten. When Algoma gets the railway its increase in wealth, comfort and population will be greatly enhanced. A few years ago one small steamer did the carrying trade of the entire district. Now five large sbaamers of the Collingwood Line, a portion of the Beatty Line, besides tugs and schooners are busily employed in the steadily increasing traffic. Our lumber operations are simply enormous. The Tag HURON EXPOSITOR, and Mammon. The negro minstrel doesn't;• he has only one master.— Goclerich Sirca. —An interesting case was tried at Ate Wellington assizes on Saturday, in which the painful spectacle was pre- sented of a mother and a son engaged in a public contest for possession of the only property to which she laid any claim after having provided liberally for all the rest of her family, and prom- ised to do the same for the son with who'll she was,having the litigatine. A great many years ago the mother, one Mrs. Marshall, who was the plaintiff, purchased, after the death of her hue - band, a farm in the township of Pilk- ington, and there settled down with her four sone. .To the first two of the latter, to get married, she gave $2,000 each on the occasion of.their leaving the parental roof to begin lite in a home of their own, and whey the third one took a wife to himself she gave- him a farm adjoining the land yhieh she retained as her (mai homestead. The plaintiff was the only son she then had living with her, and it alleged that at the time the third son was married, she told the plaintiff to remain with her ainLwork the farm she occupied and it would be Lis. At any rate the plaintiff stayed with her, and he and the brother elieving on the next lot worked the farm as one down to the time this dispute arose, a period of about twelve years. During this time the proceeds of the farm claimed by the mother were de- posited in the bank by the defendant in his own name, and at the time this, action was brought he is said to have accumulated about five thousand' dol- lars in that way. Last spring the de- fendant married hitt cousin, and then a quarrel took place, in consequence of which the mother went away from her home leaving the defendant in posees- sion. Thereupon the defendant claimed tbe farm as his 'under the agreement which he asserted his mother had made with him at the time, twelve years ago, which has already been referred to; and,. the object of the present action was to eject him. Several witnesses were called who testified to having heard the mother say the farm was to be the defendant's, and that she intended hav- ing writings drawn to convey it to him,_ bult it was not shown that she intended it should become hiS until she died. On the contrary, the defendant's father- in-law, the plaintiff's brother, who was called for the defence, said that that was his understanding of her intention. The defendant contended that he was either entitled to the farm, together with what he had made on it during the twelve years, or, like his brothers, to a dot of $2,000 with interest thereon for the twelve years, and $200 a year as wages for the same period.. Although the defendant was only nine years of age at the time his mother moved upon the farm, his counsel argued that by virtue of his length of possession he had at least as good a title to it as the plain- tiff. His lordship gave indolent in favour of the plaintiff, and in doing so said he did not believe the mother had. intended to do such a foolish thing as to give her children all her property while she herself was alive. \\4k. Life of Garfuelda - The Guelph Herald says: We have just examined advance sheets of the "Life of Garfield" from the World Pub- lishing Co's Office, Guelph. It con- tains about 700 pages, beautifully printed on good paper and profusely illustrated with some thirty engravings, including steel plate of Gen. Garfield and Arthur, this is the only authentic work published, endorsed by the family and relatives of Gen. Garlleld. Read the following endorsement from B. H. Hindsdale, of Hiram , College, Ohio, the most intimate friend that General Garfield had: beg -leave to say that I regard this book as a most valuable one and well worthy of a.general circulation. -This work is being issued by the World Publishing Company in connec- tion with the largest priblishing house in the United States, and neither labor nor expense has been spared to make the work all that it should be. Several cheap imitations are on the market, be sure you see the Life of Garfield that you buy is written by James D. McCabe, the great American Historian, author of Pictorial History of the World, Path- ways to the Holy Laud, History U. Se &c., itc. Also be sure the work you buy is nine inches long and sixl inches wide. About 700 pages and profusely illustrated. The cheap catch -penny editions that are being( advertised do not compare with them in any way,buy only the best. Religion vs. Burnt Cor . Some of the people who were at the minstrel entertainment the other night felt disappointed after the Show was over, and stated that it was a "sell," that it was "coarse," and that it was a "fraud." For our own part, we would say that it was little better or little worse than other 'minstrel shows we have seen. Bones was at one end of the troupe in all his glory, Tambo was at the other, and Mr. Interlocutor oc- cupied the place of honor in the centre. The 'orchestra was good, and so was the sentimental singing. The comic) sing- ing, parodies, puns, and plays of wit were to "tickle the ears of the ground- lings"-and they tickled. If any one goes to a "nigger show'' With the idea of receiving spiritual good, the chances are that his hopes will be doomed to dis- appointment; and if there were any who neglected the Friday evening meet- ing for the purpose of seeing the burnt cork exhibitors, and were then disap- pointed in their exchange of location, they had themselves to blame. Min- strel troupes are minstrel troupes, and do not pretend to do the work of teach- ers' meetings, prayer meetings and such like • gatherings. Their trade lies in burlesquing everything -even religion - and if any really pions soul happens to be in the audience to take offence at their travesties on men, manners, cus- toms or creeds, the really pious soul is alone responsible, for it had no busines Local Notices.
