These two young men were up the new spinning mule in the woollen for soine time incarcerated in Goderich mills. He brought with him a sntall chest of poolsfor the purpose. When he came to the customs' line he was • stopped and the value of his tool's de- manded, that duties might be.levied. He explained that the tools were all old ones that he had in use and intended to return with them. It made- no differ- ence; the customs authorities said they had orders to collect duties on everly- thing they could lay their hands on, and, as the man's tools were costly ones, they mulcted him in the sum of $6. —On Sunday afternoon six single rigs each containing a lady and gentleman drove op on the market square in Strat- ford in single file. They formed up in line as if to be photographed, and talked animated Ly fora few ramutes, illustra tin g their remarks' by pointing in various di- rections. Filially one of the rigs went off, apparently on scout duty. At this. juncture a gentleman went up and in- formed them that a photographer could not be ‘ got to work in Stratford on Sunday. They treated their in- formant with calm cohtetnpt. On the return of the scout he came into line on the right and pointed in that direction andstwo of the other rigs nodded assent and drove off with him. With cavalry precision the other three swung off in the other direction. It is thought that the . erratic.dozen were from St. Marys and that they Were in search of a minister. reasons : First, it costs nearly as much ternanufacture the milk of 50 cows as it does 500, second, it is seldom that a practical cheese -maker can be had at a salary a private factory could afford to pay ; third, a much mere uniform and suitable article can be made at a public factory where a practical maker is in charge than could possibly be made if the same milk was made up in 20 differ- ent dairies with probably not a single - . corapeteat maker in the whole outfit. The latter is probably the strongest argu- ment in favor of public factories, but the great drawback in this country at the present time ds the sparseness of settlers, thereby making the cost of drawing the milk to the factory expensive ; but this difficulty will be got over in time, as the very thing that is at present a draw- back will be an advantage by-and-by as _ the sparseness of settlers leaves room for the .few settlers to keep much larger herds ofi cows than they could if the country was settled up elose. I would rather conduct a factory patronized by 20 patrons, each having from 20 to to 30 cows each, than I would another patron- , tred by 100 patrons with five to eight CoWs each. Thus sparse settlement will not be a drawback as soon as people are in a position to keep large herds. I have unbounded confidence in the country for dairying; the milk here is of a much better quality; a pound of cheese can be • made out of a pound kss milk than in Ontario; and the same can be said of batter, this being the case, 'and the skill employed equal to Ontario the product must be richer. With these advantages I see no reason for doubting the success of the business in the future." A. Meacoraa. Yinuedosa, July 26. Zurich. A CLEVER STUDENT.—Mr. T. Grant, who teaches in School Section No. 12, Bay, in addition. to the arduous duties connected with his position, has found time to prepare himself for the second clam examination, and we see by the report of the examiners that he has pass- ed very successfully.

Nuccs.—So-netime last - week a fire started in Mr. John Becker's bush, on the Bronson line. On Saturday the wind started the flames, and they swept along towards Dashwood, between the 13th and 14th concessions burning everything in their course. 'Mr. Chas. liolbein had a lot of oats and peas directly in the course of the fire a large part of which was burned in le field. About 2 o'clock Mr. Holbein was haul- ing with two teams when one of the loads, just as it reached the road, burst into flames. The men on it jumped' off, and tried their utrnost to overturn the load, bat were unable to do so, a.nd the horses becoming frightened, set off at full gallop towards Dashwood. They were stopped, however, before they had gone far, and unhitched, but were rather badly burned. Mr. Wm. Wer- ner, of Dashwood, had's. large quantity of wood burned.
