By the well directed efforts Of the officers, directors and commit• tees combined with centrality of position and the favor= of the etc wants the Huron Central Exhibit tion in Clinton last week was u pronounced success. The various departments presented exhibits that would be cousi.lared creditable any• where, while in actual viz., horse's, cattle, carriages, organs and others we might challenge Glia world ivitlt a fair chance of success. The entries were very numerous and the attendance largo -probably ' 5000 people were presout. The first day saw everything in place. On entering the rink hall the visitor was first structs with the inviting appearance of Calbick and Reith's furniture parlur in which luxurious. ly upholstered specimens of their wares Seemed to say "rest thyself:" Next in order to catch the eye was a miniature fountain, the basin or font of which was a striking imita- tion of marble and was the haudi- work of Jos. Chambora of S. D.tvis hardware house. In various direc- tions as the eyoa w;,uderrd Che building over were to be Bean marvelous specimens of feminine taste and industry, with which the fiord exhibit Seemed jealously to vie iu "'Any instances. The fine arts exhibited at the end had been nicely arranged by Ur. Foster and contained some meritorious pieces, while others were more ambitious than artistic. There was an ezoell- ant display of fruit, as 'alyo voge- tables, Jos. Allanson as astral being the autocrat in the latter line. • A pleasing exhibit that gave an idea of the progress of the couutty in the manufacture of hardware goods was that of R. AI. Racey. It was a happy thought of Mr. It. to place conspicuously before the, public various samples in irom,ongery in unfinished and finish& d state. The best in every line was to be soon and all of Canadian manufacture. Whatever the cause that has made the change there was not an import- ed article amongst• the lot. It is all advantage to our manufacturers to - thus have their best goods. placed before the consuming public :by the retail merchant. An examination of them -has a tendeucy to create a demand for the best which is always -most profitable to the consumer and most satisfactory io the manufacturer: As an illustration of the class of goods exhibited by Mr. Racey we may, mention that on' some one asking if a highly polished hand saw was of Canadian make, and get Ling the reply that it was made by R. H. Smith & Co., St. Catharines, he seemed quite surprised thereat and still more so when a master ,builder--piwent stated that these saws were superior to any other iWtde, being better ground and fin'- ished, and -that his employees would not have any other. All manufac- turers should roe that some local dealer have their beat goods brought before the public at these exhli• tions. It would unquestionably create -an enquiry for a better class of goods than is usually obtainable. The public have no correct idea of the better class of goods that is made. Among the other exhibits by Mr. Racey wero coach colors and ready-made paints from W.:Johnson & Co., Montreal ; window shades front Hess & Anderson, Toronto; }corse shoes, out nails, brads and tacks from the Montreal Rolling Mills Co.; rope from A. W. XlorriS & Bro., Montreal ; brushes from Aleakir. & Son, Hamilton ; horse nails from the I•Iorse Nail Co., Alont'real; improved fifth wheel, springs, ,stops, Axles etc Grum the Dundas Drop Forgiug'Co,,Dundas, and pressed horse shoes in different stages of manufacture: The glitter- ing steel and dead surface irou' in this exhibit WAR brought out in nice relief by its artistic' arrangement and much onhanced by a crimson background. On the „othor side of the building was a very fine exhibit of stoves and other hardware by Harland Bros. This firm also exhibited a wood furnace of their. own make and invention. The Sample seemed to attract much attention and they made several Sales. This season their sales of this furnace haveho far been ten to ono last season. It is highly recommended by those who have put them in. Their embossed stove pipe presont- ed a vary handsome -appearance and wits much admired. Detlor & Co, exhibited it case of .fancy dry goods, Jackson Bros., clothing, J. C. Stevensou upholster- ed furniture, W. Doherty & Co., organs, and G. A.
