TIACUERS.—In addition t those teach-
ers mentioned last week, who will spend
their holidays' here, are the following :—
Mies Pake, of Wingham school; Miss
Doan, of Biyth school, and Miss Holmes,
of Gerrie school.
MASONIC.—The annual assembly of the
Sovereign Great Priory, Knights Templar,
was held in the Masonic Hall,Brockvilie,
on Tuesday, and Mr Joseph Beck, of
Goderich, (de uty-reeve of.Colborne) was
-
elected 'prk r for London district.
ACCrnENT.—Tho other evening, while
\dies Herbison, of Goderich township,was
driving along by Fair's Trill, a sudden
bjolt of the buggy, supposed to be caused
y a low culvert, threw her out, and she
fell down, the horse stumbling also. She
was somewhat cut and bruised, but for,
tunately escaped any more serious injury.
A MUSICAL PREMIER.—We d0 net
know whether Mr Blair, the Premier of
New Brunswick, is preparing a new port-
folio in his cabinet, to be known as the
" Minister of Organs," we, however, ad-
mit the necessity of any government sup-
plying their people with Doherty organs.
One thing we are sure of, and that is,
there has been nearly two car loads of
Doherty. organs shipped him within two
weeks. This augurs well for the musical
taste of Premier Blair.
A PARK. NEEDED.—The uecessity of
having a public park, where people could
resort to in the summer time, becomes
more apparent every day, and we think a
mistake is being made in not securing one
in some way. As the town increases in
size and importance, the value of land
suitable for such a purpose becomes great-
er, and the possibility of securing it less
and, less. Tbere is not at present any
place of this nature. within a reasonable
distance of the town. It nothing can be
done in the pay ora public park,,an eff;rt
should be made to arrange in some way
with the directors of the Agricultural
Society, whereby that property could be
improved and used, while still being re-
tained for show purposes. A few trees.
set out and a little grading, would make
it a pretty place in a very few years.
-- - •PEasoNA-I,s.—Mias Alien Gsiodrich is

Stygall,of Bt.ffalo,(tnother of Mrs A 0 Pat-

at home. She speaks very highly of that
place and it hospitable citizens." Mr W

Mrs Horace Foster has gond on a visit to

&COTT Acv TRIALS —On Saturday
last Mr A Walpier, of Exeter, Mr Walter
Clark, of Crediton and Mr C Willert, of
Dashwood, were brought before Police
Magistrate Williams, of Clinton, for in-
fraction of the Canada Temperance Act,
infortnation being laid by Inspector
Sprague. The first case being Mr A Wal -
pier's, and after his worship hearing all
the evidence, he dismissed the case, be-
cause the information had been laid
against Mr Walpier sr., who had not
been inside the house for months, the son
being the keeper thereof. The second
cage called was that against Mr Willert,
on which .decision was reserved. The
third ca e was Mr Clark's, who plead
guilty and paid the statutory fine of $50
and costs. Mr R H Collins, of Exeter,
prosecuted the eases in the interests of Mr
Sprague, Mr L H Dickson, of Exeter, de-
fendtd Mr Walpier's case. To the charge
laid against Mr Jonathan Miller, of Ben -
miller, by Inspector Paisley, he bas plead
guilty andaid the tine of850 and costar
At Brussels on Tuesday, Mr Deadman,
druggist, was charged with a violation of
the Aet, but ik being pioved that he gave
the liquor away, the ease was dismissed ;
Mr Hargraves, another Brussels druggist,
was charged with selling liquor, but as the
evidence showed that he sold under a
druggist's license ;this case was also dis-
missed. C Dahins,Cranbrook, was proved
guilty of violating the act. and was fined
$50 and costs; Mr Jas Scott, Clinton,
appeared for the prosecution in ell these
eases. Since the first of I1'ebruary, about
49.500 have been levied in fines for viola-
tion of the ,Scott Act in the West Riding.
Mews l' Reynolds and Milne, of town;
on information of Inspector 'Faisley,,'yes.
.terday, plead guilty and were fined.
Ac otion,NT.---Mr Julius, Carson, of the
Grand Union, met with a very painful
accident on 'Tuesday evening. Iu corking
a bottle be *truck the cork with his hand,
)when the .bottle broke, the glauA cutting
au artery, and also, cutting bhp hand hor-
ribly. A doctor grits Immediately sum-
moned, and it was necessary to chloro-
fertlttirsoo in ordet to sew up the wound,
A MATTER OF 11MPOaTAlieB. — We
would nearly as soon be sent to jail as to
dun a man, but when we have hundreds
of dollars on our books, it becomes almost
a matter of "dun" or ,`go to jail." We
want every subscriber who is to arrears
to pay up, and we want it done just as
quickly as poselble. Some people appa-
rently imagine that a paper can be run
without money—that we can steal paper,
etc., and get our employees to work for
nothing. _. Well, we---wouldz.xattlter_ II►ai_
tain an appearance of honesty, if we can-
not do any better, and in order to do this
we want all indebted to us to pay up at
once.
BivaFs.--Wo are sorry to learn of the
illness of the wife of Mr James Thomp-
son, she having just undergone a critical
surgicaL operation, and hope to hear at
once of her being on the road -to recovery.
Mr C Cruickshank, we are pleased to see, +I
has recovered .entirely from his late ill-
ness, It is reported that a case of wife
beating occurred iq the southern portion
of the town, one day last week ; the maim.
guilty of such a thing should be treated '
with the cat of nine tails. • It is rumored
that a pushing and popular young busi-
ness man of town will enter the state of
ma.rimony before another month, has
passed away • it is a noble step to take.
The last number of the War Cry contains
a picture of Dan Moran, the noted, of
Sea'ortb, with a long description of his
life; if the Salvation Army can make a
man of Dan, its labors will certainly not
have been in vain. The piga impounded
hire, and advertised to have been sold
last Saturdry, belonged to a farmer in
Hallett about seven miles from town.
Mr Jobart, the horse dealer, is around
here seeing what he can pick up. A
cablegram was received from Mr James
..Fair, on Saturday, announcing the safe
arrival of the party at Liyerppol, and
stating that they had a very pleasant voy-
age; the message contained only three
words , but each word being part of a pre-
arranged cypher. meant a good many
more. - Since Mr George Swallow has en-
larged his house, and about finished the
work of improvement, he bas got as com-
fortable and commodious a residence as
is found in that part of the town. Mr C
Spooner has been making external im-
provements to the house on Albert street
occupied by Mr Proudf'oot. Mr J C Ed-
monds, agent for the Singer Sewing Ma-
chine Co., bas purchased of Mr Robert-
son the small house on King street, oppo-
site the foundry, paying therefor the sum
of $550 ; Mr Edmonds was married to a
young lady of Hensali, oh Wednesday, and
therefore will occupy the house. Mr W
B Laing, of Buffalo, (son-in-law of Mr T
Jackson) has resigned his position on the
railway there to accept a more lucrative
and responsible office of cashier at Apple-
ton, Wis.; wo ere pleased to learn of his
advancement. Mrs Robinson, of Shef-
field, Eng., (sister of Mrs J Symonds) ar
aived here on Tuesday, and will take up
her residence with her sister. The Brus-
sels Postthus notes a former Clintonian's
mishap :—"Harry Dennis had his right
eye put in mourning, one evening last
week, while playing a game of cricket on
the park." Mr David Erwin has been
laid up for a couple of days with summer
complaint, but is around again. Mr Geo
E Pay has lately • purchased a driving
horse from Mt John Taylor. Mr Ross
(employed with Mr Chidley) has been
confined to the house for a couple of days,
but is all right now. Mr James Rye, of
San Diego, Cal., (son of Mrs Rye, Clin-
ton) was recently married to a Miss Walth-
er, of San Francisco. Drs Worthington
and Wilkie do not look much like farm-
ers, set they have been gathering their
bay crop all the same. Mr Jas Cornish,
of the base lino, was cutting his wheat
crop on the 12th inst. The boring at
Stapleton Salt •well has now reached a
depth of over 1196 feet, the second bed of
salt being reached.- The Mutual Benefit
Society of the OrganFactory now numbers
over 50 members. The fact of Mr Neelin,
editor of the Seaforth San, and Mr Ted-
ford, our Chief of Police, being seen
around the station at the same time, on
Tuesday, may have no significance, but
our readers can draw their own inference.
Mr James Steep this week took 951ba of
clear honey from two hives. A woman
on Huron Street scalded net neighbor's
cat the other day; such an act of cruelty
is barbarous. The families of Messrs.
Davis, Pay, Hodgens and Cunningham,
aro arranging to camp out for a couple of
weeks, on the Maitland—a very pleasant
way of enjoying a holiday. Mr Tipliog
has purchased a Tontine filly of Mr Chris.
Nesbitt, and it, is said to be a particularly
fine beast. Mr J Jarvis, one of the most
respected employees of the Stapleton Salt
Works, leaves in a few days on a well-
earqed holiday, for the old country, via
Allan line. The Oddlellows of town in-
tend to inaugurate a Decoration Day, on
the 27th inst, when they will proceed to
the cemetery, headed by theDoherty band,
and with nppropiiate services, decorate
tbe graves of departed members of their
order. A sister of Mrs D. A. Forrester,
residing at Ornegeville, was married on
Wednesday, to a Mr Ferguson, of that
place. We are pleased to see Mr William
Marten on the street again, even though
he is yet Very weak. Mr Allen, sr., of
Hullett, one of the best informed and most
intelligent men of the township, bas been
spending a couple of w ceks with friends in
town, Most of tbe NEW ERA'S valued
staff of rurN correspondents have appar.
ently been prostrated by the weather, as
we have not heard from them ; we hope
they will recover soon. Mr Geo. Beesley
has been off work for several days on ac-
count of a lame back; it has to be a severe
ailment that will lay George up anytime.
The f.tmily of Mr H C Brewer are rusti-
cating at Bayfield. The base ball club
go to Mitchell to -day, to play off an un-
finished game. Mr Searle has currant
bushes in his garden which stand eleven
feet high ; to be proportionate the cur-
rants thereon should be as large as eggs --
pigeon's. Over 400 tickets were sold at
Clinton on Tuesday last, for Goderich.
A gentleman in town, who has some con-
nection with the News -Record, on return-
ing from the celebration at Goderich, put
his head nut of the car window, and lost
his white plug hat.
