DISTRICT MATTERS.
PROFESSIONAL. -As will be seen by
card iu, another column, a law partner-
ship has been .formed between Mr. P.
S. Carroll, of this town, and Mr. W. B.
Dickson, of Brussels. Each member'of
the firm still continues to do business
in his own town. But in case of Mr.
Carroll .having at any time to be ab-
sent himself from the Seaforth office
the business of that office will be con-
cluded ;daring his absence ; by Mr.
Dickson. Both gentlemen are too well
known to most of our readers, both
professionally and personally, to require
any commendation from us:, suffice it to
say, they will make a strong team, and
we wish them, success.
ABOIT Eads. -Mr,, Robert Charters, of
of the Mill road, Tuokersmith, recently
found an egg layed by one of his hens
which measured 9i inches the one way
and 71 the other. His neighbor, Mr.
John Cameron, not being able to beat -
this egg for size goes i,.l the other a rtreme
and has left with us an egg which is as
round as a marble and measures barely
three inches in cireuinference. It is not
a hen's egg, however, but is the product
of a tame turtle owned by Mr. Hugh
McCartney, of the Brumfield cheese
factory, and Mr. Cameron has instruct-
ed us to say that if any of our readers
wish to go into the turtle raisingbusiness
they can have this egg for hatching pur-
poses on application at THE EXPOSITOR
office.
A WELL MERITED TRIBUTE.. At a
recent meeting of the members of the
Seaforth Fire Brigade, it was nnani-
mously resolved to present Mr. Robert
Laidlaw,the Treasurer and Secretary of
the . Brigade, with a purse of $25; in
recognition of his long and efficient
services to the Brigade in his official
capacity. The present was accom-
panied by a moat complimentary
worded vote of thanks. Mr. Laidlaw
has filled those important positions
moat acceptably for about seven. years,
_and this act of the brigade, was bat a
fitting and graceful acknowledgement
of faithful services. Himself and Mrs.
Laidlaw left for Kansas on Tuesday,
and we sincerely hope the trip will have
the desired effect of improving his
health.
THE Carie Heamea.-The civic holi-
day on Monday last was observed in the
usual way. The stores and other busi-
ness places were all closed, and every
person who could left town. and the
streets were -completely deserted, and a
horse or vehicle to hire could not
be had in the afternoon for love or
money., • The various excursions were
well patronized, seventy having gone to ,
Toronto, sixty to London, and one hun-
dred and sixty-five to Goderioh, while a
great many went by private conveyances
to Bayfield and other places and we
have no doubt all enjoyed themselves
and returned to the cares of life on the`.
following morning strengthened and
improved both. mentally and physically
by their day's relaxation. In these days
Of business bustle and push and hurry
to become rich, there is far too much
work and too little recreation.' If the
business men would close up their
shops., and leave business behind, de -
wife at least one half day each' week to
relaxation and pleasure, they would be
jastt as heavy in purse and a great
deaf heavier physioially at the end of
ten years than by keeping ceaslessiy in
the old tread mill. Who will set the
example ?
T.UE GOOD TEMPLARS' ENTERTAINMENT.
-As usual the entertainment given by
the Good'emplars in Cardno's hall on
Tuesday evening last was a success in
every way. As a rule theentertain-
ments given by the Good Templars -of
this town are very I interesting, but we
think this one outstripped ail former
efforts. Mr. John Beattie occupied the
chair in his usual affable and pleasing
manner. Mr. J. H. Flagg., of Mitchell,
and. Rev. Mr. McCoy, of Egmondville,
delivered short addresses. A couple of
instrumental selections by Messrs. J.
A. Wilson, J E. Kent and Miss Ewing
were well received, as was also a quar-
tette by Mr. and Mrs. Pyper, Mr. Kent
and Miss. Thompson. Lientenant Ban-
ton, of the Salvation Army, gave a read-
ing in good. style. Mr. M. Tillman, the
local Dutoli orator, gave one of his in
struetive and comical addresses.; Messrs.
Geo. B. Scott and F. Tillman fairly
brought down.. the hoose with , their
COMIC songs and speeches, being encored
again and again. Miss Williams presid-
ed at the piano, and deserves credit for
-the manner in which she performed her
part of the programme. The proceeds
of this entertainment go towards assist-
ing in the passage of the Scott Act.
B.ETuRNED.-Mr. Robert Gavenldck,
of McKillop, accompanied by Mr. Wm.
Govenlook, returned home from !Mani-
toba on Wednesday. Oar readeris will
be glad to learn that Mr. Govenlook has
promisedto give his impressions of the
Northwest as viewed` from a practical
farmer's stand point, through the col-
umna of THE EXPOSITOR. He went to
the Northwest for the benefit of his
health and we are pleased that his oat-
.• ing, has had a beneficial result, although.
he had a; somewhat rough experience
on the homeward journey, and he has
to thank his skill as a swimmer,acquir-
ed in early life,that he is not in the bot -
tem of Thunder Bay as food for the
fishes instead of gladdening the hearts of
his friends by recounting his adventures
and exploits by land and sea. SVben he
arrived at Port Arthur it was very dark
and raining heavily, and as himself and
his nephew werepassing hurriedly along
the wharf in quest of their baggage, Mr.
Govenlook stepped off and fell into the
water, a distance of about twelve feet
below, It was pitoh dark and he as
muffled up in his overcoat ; bit de: •its
these disadvantages and .regardlea of
the fact that he had not attempt. to
swim for twenty years be >itruo, out
brave y and succeeded in keeping • =-
self float until Mr. Wme Gove f oak
secured a light and got assistance, hen
a rope was thrown to hien and by
'• .lino
of it he managed to reach terra , ma
once More, pretty thoroughly drene e ed,
but none the worse for his adven re.
Had he not been ' a . good ewimme ' he
would certainly have been drowned. He
lost his valise which he was parrying in
his hand when he stepped off the wharf.

OnrTIIART.-We; regret to learn ` om
Port Perry of the death of Mrs. E A.
Nott, lately of this town, which ace red
in that place on the 7th inst.- Mr. ott
was an employee ill THE Exros 'TOR
office for nearly two years, and 1. t a
few weeks ago so as to be near his ife,
who had previously gone to Port P. rry
that she might spend her last days ith
relatives there. She was a y a ng
woman, we might say, just ente' ing
upon life, being only 23 years of - ge,
and had only been married about i wo
years, butthat destroying enemy, on -
m
suption, had early marked her -for. its
prey, and the; disease commence: to
show itself very soon after she bee' o
a wife. She was a kindhearted, rd, u ob-
trusive Christian woman, and dining
her brief reside • ce. here made miny
friends, who will learn with regre of
her=. early departure and extend tai the
bereaved husband the 'sincere* sympa-
thy.
GOOD WORK. - Profiting • by his
Dakota experience, Mr. William . w-
ler, of the ;Huron road, !Tuck.rs-
srnith, this ;year threshed I his en-
tire fall wheat crop in the barn y: rd,
just as it was delivered from the fi(:Id.
He had about forty.five acres, .w ich
will give a yield of about 35 bushel: to
the acre. The whole was peethro gh
Mr. Wm. Mnrray's mammoth at } am
thresher in a little over a day a d a
half. Although -the field Was q`nite
convenient to the threshing ground, !six
teams were kept busily engaged dra ing
the grain from the field to the {mac iine.
By threshing out in this way, Mr. F'' vi-
ler saves the labor and a pens of
housing his grain, which is a Very on-
siderable item,'. and as on this occasion.
he was favored with good weal er,
the waste was not greater th n w Id
have been had the_grain been thre a ed
in the barn. As -an example o the : • od
yield this season, and the rapi ity i ith
which grain can be- threshed I? mo • :rn
machines, we' may state'that when he
wheat of the celebrated Star var' :t
was being threshed the grain ame •a
of the machine 'at the rate oftwo bus v el
in 35 seconds. This is pretty ast
threshing, but of course itwas not kept
up very long.
DEATH OF A CLEVER WOMAN. -The I dy
alluded to in the followingreforo ce
which we take from last week's Galt e -
former, was personally known tom ny
of our readers and was an'aunt to I he
Messrs. Somerville of McKillop. he
Reformer says : " We regret to re ..rd
'the death of Miss Somerville, of H ys-
ville, Ontario,.which occurred at Perth,
Scotland, on the 14th of last month' It
will be remembered that the deoe ` :ed
lady left for Scotland about two mo • hs
ago.? She appears to have been ver + ill
daring the voyage, and scarcely ral ed
on her arrival in her native land. a iss
Somerville was in many respects : iQ e -
markable woman, and the annoa + ce-
ment df her death will be received •P'th,
regret by many throughout the co ty
of Waterloo. Possessed of far • re
than an average amount of shrewd :as
and business ability, she condtoted I •er
large mercantile business at Hays le
with great success, and accumulat:l a
competence. She was possessed of :.en
intelligence, and few even of the ate• er •
sex were better, posted • on public q : es -
Mons or possessed a greater inflaenc`in
the community than. she. In poll +ics
she was a most enthusiastic Lib al,•
and was ever `willing to do anyt
iDg
within her pourer to advance the ca se.
Daring the las three elections in is
constituency the writer had no .Cor s-
pondetrt in the upper end of the riding
whose statements and representations
on things political he found to .be so
accurate and ;reliable as those of iss
Somerville. She 'rendered good ser, 'ce
in every contest, and the Tory requ; red
to be well posted indeed who could lilbld
his own in an argument with her. Pt ; co
be to her ashes" '
THE BICYCLE TOURNAME1�T.-The j : i
