One poor fellow came down on Tuesday who was suffering from a se- vere out in his thigh. He aud a,nother man were chopping together when the axe in his companions hand slipped and gave him a, very painful wound. -Whilot working in the bush a few days ago,'Mr. George Simpson, of Mc- Gillivray, met with a severe accident. He was chopping on a tree which was lying acmes another, when the end fle-w up, striking hirn on the back of the head, knoeking him down a,ud the log came down on his shoulders.

The prepar- ations were complete and the minister and contracting parties were present.

The deputation consisted of Measrs. Hen- drie, Oster, E. Martin, Mulock, Thomp- son, Ramsay, Hoclgius, Itingaraill and others. The Government promised that the views of the deputation should receive careful consideration. -One day last week the little of Rev. Mr. Goldie, of Watford, while playing, fell into a. water cistern. Mrs. Goldie missed the - little one at play, and at once went in search. Looking into the cistern, and observing the water bubbles, she unhesitatingly plunged in arid found her child almost gone. . By rutibing and turning she partially restored the little one, and was just able to lift her up out of the ciatern. She theu found herself in a sad fix, being unable to get oat. The child, however, succeeded in bringing out the neighbors, who, by placiug high stool in the cistern released her. -The committee appoieted to inves- tigate the oharges eruelty against the matron of the Hervey Institute in Montreal have preseoted their report. They fiad that the charges of applying mustard plasters to refractory children is sestained ; but they acquit the ma- tron of inteutionaA enmity. They find that the cbarge of °wafering unruly children in a dark furnace and base- ment room: is also sustained ; but as this process was not attended by danger to those thilts disciplined -a point on which they were evidently ittee impotent to judge -they endorse the action of the Ladies'ICon3mittee, which in turn endorsed the conduct of the matron.. No wonder! the "'report is "almost uni- versally condenarted." - The lest regular monthly New Hamburg clattle fair was au uuqualified s-uccess. There were a large number of cattle buyers from all parte present by whom three or four cartel:Efts of cat- tle were flicked.' up at good prices.

This will furnish an inorease to the bill for damages which the county will have against the Iron Bridge Company. -Wingham had a narrow escape from a disastrous fire on Tuesday of last week. At about 2 o'clock p. m. on that day a fite was discovered in a lath and plaster wall at the new banking house of C. Tait Scott, Esq., and it was with some difficulty it could be quenched. he fire originated from ft stovepipe pa sing through the wall, and it see s in one part the lath touched the thimble through which the pipe passed. Being a very cold day, a large fire wee kept up, the lath ignited, and a great excitement was the conse- quence. Thria only damage done was the knocking down of a lot of plaster to get at the flames, which were soon ex- tinguished withafew pails of water. -A few days ago a farmer from Goderich township, returning home from Clinton, placed hiepipe, which he had just been smoking, in his pocket, tucked the buffalo robe around him, and jogged along, for some time uncon- scious of the fact that 'the fire which he bad unthinkingly left in the pipe, was slowly increasing in volume. When near Holmesville he began to think he had a touch of rheumatism at the base of his spinal curium' n, and the pain thereof increased so much that he could not stand it, and, jumping to his feet, be was astonished to find the seat cif his pants all in flames. The fire was quickly put oat, but he was so badly burned on the hip that it has been with extreme difficulty that he has since got about. -At the annual meeting of the MoIesworth Cheese and Butter Manu- facturing Company there was a large representation of shareholders and patrons, and all _seemed well pleased with the way in which the business has been carried on for the past year.

Three of the old Board of Directors were retitleoted for the present year. The following are the Directors for tlip current year : H. Cummings, H. Coghlin, H. Cunning- ham, J. Brisbin and W. H. McKee. The new Board. has re-engaged W. Wood as their cheesemaker. -Some time ago Mr. R. M. Racey, of Clinton, traded off an old safe which he had in his office to a man in St. Thomas for a new one. When the new safe arrived, the old one was placed in Mr. Racey's storehouse, and remained there some time. A few days ago it was shipped to St. Thomas to a party who had purchased it. On being de- livered to the new owner, it was found that one of the drawers would not open, but the proprietor was determined to have the use of that drawer if he had to "bust" it open. After a little work the compartment was opened and in it was found a bundle of doeuments, in- cluding a "last will and testament," and a variety of papers, that had been, stored there by people for safe keeping. Besides this was a most ancient look- ing bullseye watch, an old fashioned seal, a silver dollar, a jewel case con- taining a handsome gold ring set with pearls and inscribed on the inside "Mizpah." It seems that Mr. Racey had placed these articles in the -safe, and forgetting about them permitted it to be sent to the St. Thomas man without removing them. The articles have all been returned, but , had they not fallen into honest hands their °weer might have been given considerable trouble. ISMR111111111111111•11111111=1 Good Oats for Seed. Last seaten I got Some seed oats of the WHITE RUSSIAN variety from Messrs. Laidlaw dr. Fairley and Wm. Rehill, Seedarnen of Seaforth. I got so much per bushel for sowing, threshing and delivering the product of this Beed in the Seaforth market. The seed was procured from Rochester, in the State of New York. It was very clean and free from noxious weeds. The straw makes fine feed and stood well up. Part of the field *as low, arid although the crop was very heavy the grain stood well up. The crop is now all threshed and taken to market, and yielded nearly 70 bushels per acre. I showed it sample of them at the Seaforth show last fall, and took the first prize for white oats. I consider them one of the very beat varieties of white oats I have seen. A short time ago I saw a statement in THE EXPOSIEOR to the effect that somewhere 700 bushels ()floats had been threshed "in the short epaee of, three hours." Wheu cleaned my oats turned out 740 bushels, and the whole was threshed in three hours by Messrs. Hinchley Brothers of Hallett. I have no hesitation in recommend- ing these oats to farmers generally as an:excellent and profitable variety for seed. JOHN MCMILLAN, Reeve of Hul- let. . Local Notices.
