EXTENDIG HIS OPERATIONS —We clip
the followihg frOm a Cincinnatti paper of a
Feeeflt datO : ", Cards are out announcing
the marriage of Miss Frances Hobelm,an, the
handsome tlaugbter of Mr. and Mrs. Chas.
P. Hobelman, of Avondale, and Dr. Edward
G.1143Caesey,on June 1003, at 9 a.' m., at St.
Xavier Uhorch. They are both well known
in St. Xavier parish, the doctor being a
member of ,the Elks Knights of Columbus
and nurnereus other societies." The pros-
pective bride -groom mentioned here was a
resident of Be'lgrave, in this county, and left
there some years ago to seek his fortune in
the United States, and where be has won
both . fame and fortune. His many old
friends in this section will join with THE
EXPOSITOR in wishing him every semen in

DIED IN Mheirrone.—Word has been re-
ceived her of the death of Mr. Thomas Hor-
ton, son of Mr. John Horton, who now re-
sides near Heaney, Manitoba but who
formerly resided in- Tuckeramith', near Ohii-
elhure. Mr. Horrot died in Brandon, n
the 15th of June. He had an attack of ty-
phoid fever, froth -which he was reooveriog
when he took a relapse and the disease
proved fatal. He waa 35 years of age and
was a well -doing man, who ,vas deservedly
esteemed by all who knew him. He- had
been with friends in this vicinity for a year,
and only returned to Manitoba in March
last. He leaves a widow but nu children.
He was a brother of Mrs. Hugh Chesney, of
Egmondville. Many of his old friends in
this part of Huron will deeply regret to
learn of -hie death, and will extend their
aincereet sympathy to the bereaved widow
and relatives.

ABOUT Does.—Mr. Wm. Adams, the col-
lector, was round the other day oollecting
the dog tax and distributing tage. He had
80 en his list. but of this number several
have been poiaoned since the list was made
out, Mrs. John Dorsey had a magnificent
St. Bernard poisoned a few days ago, and
Mr. Alex. Scott, ar, also had an old favorite
destroyed in the same way. If the poison is
set out for. the purpose of destroying theee
animals, it is a deteetable way of taking re-
venge on a neighbor or fellow citizenn If a
dog, on acoeurit Of its bad habits ie a nuis-
ance in a neighborhood it ahoulde certainly,
be put out of the way, brit there are, eurely,
more humane and kindly methods of getting
rid of the nuisance than by endangering.
valuable or harmless animale that may be
favorites everywhere and highly prized by
their owners. There are many other waye
of getting rid of a dangerous dog or one that
may be e nuisance, or of compelling the
owner to get rid of it, that would not be an-
noying to innocent and unoffending citizens.

NEWSPAPER RELICS.—Mrs. F. Gales has
shosen no two oopies of the old Toronto Pa-
triots one number of which is dated July
8th, 1861, and the other March 12th, 1862.
They are addressed to the late Thomas Ad -
entre; Mrs. Gales' father, who was a eubscrib-
er to the paper, and with whom it was a
great favorite. The Patriot was the organ
of the Orange Order of those days, and was
ublished from the old Leader office and by
r. Beaty, who ewer the chief editor and
publisher of both papers. It was strongly
Conservative in politics. In 1861 an election
was en for the Parliament of Canada, which
was then oomposed of what are now known
as the Provinces of Ontario and Quebec'.
Judging from the columns of the Patriot
politics were as hot then as they are now.
and elthough they did- not seem to have any
Gamey investigations, the charges of , brib•
ery and corruption were bandied about just
as glibly as they are now, and in one of the•
1)111)(34 we notice the report of a trial of a
libel ;suit entered by George Brown, who
was then leader of the Upper Canada Re-
formers and editor of the Globe, against Mr.
BeatY, the editor of the Leader, the op-
posing political organ. Mr. Beaty, through
the Leader, accused Mr. Brown of having
" lefe New York with his creditors in the
luroh.1" The election addresses of sev
eral bf the candidates are publiahed in
the 1361 issue, and among others is that of
Wm. Ryerson, (Rev. Dr. Ryerson) to the
eleotoirs nf the West Riding of the county of
Brant. This is a sonaewhae spirited clocu-
ment, as may be judged from the following :
He says : " Aadong as I am a Canadian
and' have a Canadian heart in my body
and United Empire; blood in my veins, I
will eever look to 'Washington, any more
than to Paris or P km, for the removal of
our Sooial evils o the security of our
political liberties, t ough I ever look to -
Washington with f elings of Food will and.
eow etpecially with ,;feelings ef pity." Hey
also seys : " I will not ask any man for hia
vote, : Every man phat votes for me muet
feel that he presents a free will offering,
not ae a favor or benefit to me, but as a
duty to his county end country." This ad -
nice needed as much now as it was then,
or -perhaps more. In those days there was
open noting and the voting continued for
two days and the eleotione were nob held
simuleaneously as noW, but were strung out
for weeks. Attorney General Macdonald
was elected for Kingeton by a majority of
231 over his opponenh, Hon. Oliver Mowat,
vehereupon the Pattiot remarks : " The
interloper has been , sent about his busi-
ness. Kingston has! rejected the 'Chancel-
lor -expectant by a decisive vote. The
emourit of money apent by Mr. Mowat
and his friends was beyond all precedent.
Bub even five hunOred pound subscrip-
tions evere not suffidient to upset Mr.
MacdOnald." Mr. Mowat, however, seems
o have been running for another constitu-
ency aa well as Kingston, for We notice he

papers, illustrative of the sentiments of the
times, but space will not permit. We no-
tice in the market reports that in the Tor-
onto market fall wheat was quoted at $1.04
to $1.09 per bushel ; spring wheat 75 to 81'

four-page sheet, nicely printed and contain-

on each page. It was vigorously and ably
conducted and wielded a powerful influence
in its day.

him unless he underwenb an operation. He

BI -CENTENARY OF JOHN WESLEY'S BIRTH.
—Next Sunday, June 28th, will be the
200th anniversary of the birth of John
Wesley, an event which has greatly affected
the religious life, not only of England, but
of the Christian werld. The Methodist
church, which had ite origin under Ged, in
hie labors, has spread and grown, unbil, in
every Christian land, and in most heathen
lands also, it is bearing its witness to a
definite conversiort, a personal assurance of
salvation and a- life of zeal and holiness.
In every 'Methodist' church in the Confer-
ence' special nommemorative and thanks -
eying eervioes are ordered to be held. Ac-
cordingly such services will be held next
Sunday, in the Methodist ohurob, Seaforth,
and a cordial invitation 'is given by the pas-
tor and the Methodist people to loin with
them in the services of praise and conserve -
tion. —Co et.
DEATH OF LEO. DORSEY.—We deeply re-
gret this week being called on to record the
death of Mr. Matthew Leo Dorsey, third
son of Mrs John Dorsey, of Seaforth. . He
was a bright, promising young man of 23
years of age. He passed away ab the resi-
denoe of hie mother here, on Tuesday last,
after an illness of about six weeks. He had
never been, very robust, but his pluok and
perseverance enabled him to overcome diffi-
culties which would daunt) many stronger
youths, and it was hoped by his friends that
he would ultimately outgrow -the defects of
a weak constitution. But this was not to
be. He learned the jewelry business here
.with Mr. J.F. Daly,and after completing hie
term he spent a year in Toronto perfecting
himeelf in his Wiriness. He had only re-
turned from Toronto a few days when he
was attacked by,the illness which did its
fatal *ark all too soon. Leo, as he was
familiarly called, was a universal favorite
with every person who knew him. His
genial end obliging manner, coupled with a
most kindly disposition, endeared hirh to all
with whom he oame in contact and his early
demise will be deeply regretted by many
and the sincerest sympathy will be extended
to the sadly bereaved mother and members of
the family. The funeral services were held
in St. James' church on Thursdey forenoon
and were largely attended, and the remains
were interred in the family plot in St.
Oolumban cemetery beside those - of hie
father and brother.

THE FARMERS' ExOURSION.—The farmers
were not so fortunate thia year in the mat-
ter of weather for their excursion as they
have been in past yeara. The weather on
Saturday morning was gloomy and not
promising, and .it did nob improve during
the day, as rain fell most of the time from
early in the morning until late in the even-
ing. We doubt not, however, that the
rain will have done more good to the farm-
er's orops than lit did harm to the excursion -
hits. Bub, notwithstanding the drawback
of weather, the excursion wait largely pat-
ronized. Theregular train was not suffi-
cient to accommodate those who wished to
avail themselves of its advanteges, and a
special had to be run from Clinton, and both
trains were well laden. The Grand Trunk
authorities, however, are to be congratu-
lated ov the excellent acconemode,tion they
provided and the very efficient arrange-
ments made for the accommodation and
comfortable transport of the people. Guelph
was reached in good time and most of the
excursionists left at once for the Experi-
mental Farm, where they were most hos-
pitably entertained and attended to by the
authorities there. The operations at the
farm and college seem to be a never ending
source of interest to the farming visitors,
and to mese the time passed all too quickly
until going honie hour arrived. The new
buildinge being ereoted and equipped were
an additional seuree of interest this year,
and they were thoroughly examined by a
great many. The run home wee made in
good time and most of the excursionists,
who returned on Saturday evening, would
reach their home before Sunday morning,
although we fear some of them may have
been too sleepy and tired to attend church.
A goodly number took advantage of the
stop -over privilege and remained with
friends in Guelph and vicinity and at other
pointe along the route until the following
Monday. Although the crowd was large it
would have been much larger had the weath-
er been more favorable as many were de-
terred from going by the unpromising
weather indications about starting time.
There were 210 tickets sold at Seaforth
station and 40 at Goderioh. We have not
been able to get the figures from the other
stations.
