We are pleased: to learn from the Clinton News Record, that Mr. A. M. Todd, the junior proprietor of that jour- nal is convalescent,after a three months' illness. An excursion to Owen Sound or Tor- onto is talked of. If the former place is selected and a ball match arranged be- tween the Owen Sound and Unions it should draw out a large crowd. Some of the Societies of Gorrie and Wroxeter should take the matter up. The smaller boys are practising foot- ball regularly these evenings, but the Gorrie Foot Ball club gives no evidences of existence. There are teams all around us which would like to try con- clusions with the boys, and they might get on some good matches yet this sea- san with a little effort. Cherries are now in the market and the crop seems to be a very large one. In many cases the cherry appears to have been attacked by some -insect or blight, which has prevented the full de- velopment of the fruit and caused a tendency to rot et_ the root of the stem almost immediately after being picked. Mr. Wm. Evans is building a large bank barn addition to his already large barn room. The raising occurred on last Thursday evening. Messrs. Chas. Mitchell and Thos. Dane were captains, the latter winning after an exciting con- test. Gorrie and Wroxeter were well were represented, there being large numbers from both villages present. For threemonths ending June 14th there were 71 convictions made by the county magistrates ; 17 of these were by goderich magistrates 18 by Seaforth ; 18 by Clinton 7 by Brussels ; 9 by Manchester, and the rest scattered over the county. There were nine violations of License Act, the fines for which amount to $210 ; there was one fine also of $100 imposed for illicit distilling ; the fines collected over the sums mentioned .amounted to $71.50. The Foresters have decided to go ahead with the building of a fine brick hall in this village. Plans and specifica- tions have been prepared and tenders are asked for by advertisement in ano- ther column. The building will be placed upon the lot purchased by the Court next to Sharpin's tailor -shop, on Main St. It will be two stories in height, the upper being used. as. a hall while the lower will be fitted up for -use as a store: The erection of the building is, we ufiderstand,to be pushed as rapid- ly as possible.

During the months of May and June, 278 books were changed in the Gorrie Mechanician Institute. There has been an increase of six members during that time. The Superintendent, Dr. S. P. May,will call to inspect the library in a few days. A large amount of brick was delivered at the new Methodist Church last Tues- day by a "bee." Mr. Blow has the brick -work of the building well under way and is pushing it along as rapidly as possible, so that the walls will soon be seen above the maples which sur- round the grounds. Last Friday during the - severe rain' storm, Mr. Jas. Weir's barn, on the- C line, Turnberry, was struck by light- ning and consumed, along with its con- tenteeamong which were several vehicles. T'he'building wasinsured in the Howick Mutual for $600, and there was also an insurance in the same company upon contents. The excursion trains to Manitoba this week carried away quite a number of Gorrieites, amorg the number being Messrs. Jas. Leech, Jno Keine, -jr., Alex. King, Chas. Donley and Wm. Oliphant, jr., and Mrs. Jno. Stinson and Mrs. Eli Seymour, the former going to visit her daughter, and the latter to join her hus- band, who went to the Northwest a few months ago. The following poetical appeal won for its author, the editor of the Rocky Mountain Cent,the prize of '$1.000 offer- ed for the best appeal poem to newspa- per subscribers to pay up their subscrip- tions. Lives of poor men oft remind us Honest men won't stand a chance. The more we work there grows behind us Bigger patches on sus pants. On our pants once new and glossy. Now are stripes of different hue. All because subscribers linger And won't pay us what is due. Then let all be up and doing; Send your mite, however small, Or, when the snows of winter strike us, We shall have no pants at all. A terrific .rainstorm accompanied by heavy thunder and lightning, passed over this section last Friday. Rain fell in sheets which obstructed the vision like a fog. It was not of long duration, however, and passed quickly away leav- ing the atmosphere much cooler. A very heavy wind prevailed during the storm. Lightning struck in several places in this vicinity, the nearest. point being in Mr. Alex. Strong's hayfield where a hay -cock was set on fire by an electric -bolt. The residence of Ifr.Cor- bett, on the 9th . con., was also struck, but fortunately, no serious damage was done, . Rev. and Mrs. Brownlee were absent in Harriston on Tuesday, attending at the marriage of her sister, Miss Rebecca C. Hamlep, to Mr. Jno. S. Plaskett, lec- turer in Toronto University. The cere- mony was performed in St. George's Church, by Rev. C. E. Belt. The bride, who was beautifully arrayed in white cashmere, was attended by -- two of her sisters as bridesmaids while the groom was supported by Mr. Cheyne, of Wood- stock. After the ceremony the wedding party sat down to dinner in the fine ar- bor of the bride's father, Mr. Alex.Ham- ley. The wedding presents were numer- ous and valuable. In the afternoon the happy couple took the G. T. R. for Toronto, where they will remain a few days before starting to spend their honeymoouin Muskuko, Fordwich. A grand Masonic entertainment will be given here on the esening of the 28th, on the occasion of the opening of their fine new hall.
