The ilustrations are models of clear- ness, the letter press shows good work and the deacriptivo matter of persons, the couutry, itsetiivate and resources, such as should awaken an interest in a region of unlimited natural attractions and unbounded undeveloped agricultural and miner- al wealth.

J. !Iighton, for Chas, Boecklh & Son, Toronto, who has been on a ttvo weeks trip through Brant, Oxford, Elgin, Kent and Essex counties, told a reporter op Saturday that the fall wheat crop • would be immense. Wheat and barley are being harvested, and the hay is about all in. As Mr. Migh- ton was raised on a farm his opinion may he taken as reliable. Ho, THERE !—Willilims, Greene & Rome, shirt and collar makers, of Berlin, visited Guelph the other day to ascertain what prospect there is to locate a - branch of their busi- ness there. They find that the scarcity of labor in Berlin is detri- mental to their extending their business there and they must, to meet their orders, have increased facilities to do so. In reference to this or any other manufacturing concern we might call the attention of the proprietors or projectors to the advantages of Clinton. as a manufacturing and distributing ,point. We have oue of the prettiest and healthiest inland towns in Can- ada. lar enough from the lake, twelve miles distant, to escape im• mediate contact with rude northwest winds; and yet near enough to get the benefit of those bracing breezes after they have been tempered by a twelve guile overland trip. In educational facilities. we have our excellent .lfodel School and a Collegiate Institute, both of which have attained a very high character for exceptionally good work. In religio-social matters our town has tho reputation of a deservelly high standard. In the mere worldly eucial relations of live we have a town hall of fair seating capacity wherein the sons •of Thespis do often sportively display themselves for the recreation of those whose in- clinations are that way. The ad- jacent country is peopled with well - to do farmers who can supply .ten times the population with tho pro - duets of field, dairy, farmyard and orchard, from first hands, and thus ensure that freshness and whole- someness of supplies for the table which is one of the chief factors in making life worth living, And all these at, prices much below city rates, Our merchants are noted for their shrewdness in buying, which enables them to sell their large and varied etucks at surprisingly low prices. All this tends to show a minimum in cast of living with a maximum of educational, religious and social advantages, that would attract • and retain cheap labor in this town. A considerable quantity of labor such as would be required in a shirt and Dollar factory is in- digenous to the locality, while the climatic and social conditions we have referred to would draw here any possible amount of labor that would bo required. Families con- taining young men and women would prefer living here to living cooped up in a city. The railway facilities of Clinton are markedly superior to those of moat towns of this size. Take it all in all menu - 111 INUS THEIR DIOLAItS.—The Kincardine Review has this interest- ing piece of information :—Some. body .dropped his or her teeth at the garden party Tuesday evening.

STAMPEDE.—On the afternoon of Thursday the bus horses of the Commercial were standing in front of the :hotel. Wilson the tin man was driving past with a heaped load of bagged wool. One of.the big packages rolled of "forninet" the bus team. Tbo bus • teats objected to having the wool pulled over their eyes and started lake ward at a swinging gait. Long before they reached Goderich they were stopped and returned to their peaceful avoca- tion. GREEK MEETS GREEK.—Mr. A. Bishop, the sitting M. P. for South Huron, was in town Thursday and Ftiday'ivorning. Ho' looks happy though the prospect that he "must go" looms up in the not distant future. When in town he met a possible future opponent in the person of Deputy Reeve John Bea- com of Goderich towbship. Mr. Bishop was free to admit that if the representatlnn of South Huron depended on pedestrian speed, Mr. Beacom would distance him. Mr. Bishop evidently agrees with tlhati( powerful controller of Reform opigl ion, the Goderich Grit organ, theft he is an "old stick", but we mum*, also that Mr. Bishop is inclined i< the belief that au "old stick" whe taken is band by Scotebnlen can d as good execution as a green shille- lagh in the hands of the party of the other part. It is a great pity that Mr. Bishop was not a Tory "old stick." t. next Sunday morning. 1♦IRS. JOHN \\rmSE61AN is visiting friends in Perth county. LApK KENNEDY has put up a 11asome new sigu. MRs.

I'lc iNic--It is hard to tell when this form of entertain- ment tjist came into popular favor, but there is extant an account of a distinguished pic-nic which took place in the early part of the seven- teenth century, upon time birthday of Charles, Prince of \Vales, after- wards Charles I. of England. Main- wariug, in a letter to the Earl of Arundel, bearing elate November 22, 1G18, alludes to this pic-nic, and says : "Tho prince his birthday has been solemnized here by 11 few marquises and lords whi found themselves hero ; and supply the want of lords) kuig and squires were admitted to a c. sultation, wherein it was resol that such a number should meet Gamigos, aiul britt;/ eueell ?ilOfl hie dish of )meat.

Sir Geooe Young's invention bore away tle boll ; but that was four huge brawny pies, piping hot, bitted and harnas''- ed with ropes of sarsiges, all tied a monstrous bng•pudding.,. UrsET.—A—wagon load of young folks were returning from the Methodist picnic Thursday last. Near the bridge at the south of the town•thoy attempted to pass Perdue's portable engine which -was en the road and the horses became frigh- tened so that they drew the rig off the main part of the roadway and upset it into the ditch. A young man named Watson was cut about the eye and several others were more or less injured, but none seriously. THE EXPOSITOR was shown oats grown in Tuckersmith, the stalks of which measured six feet seven inches in length. J. T. H ARLAND, wife and chil- dren, of Clinton, were visiting at H.

REV. J. C. FARTHING, B.A., Item tor of New St. Paul's, Woodstock q delivered two very interesting ser- mons in St. Paul's church, Clinton, last Sunday. In the morning his text was taken from S. Mark, 10th chapter and part of the 21st verse : "Then Jesus, beholding him loved him, and said auto him, one thing thou lackest : go thy way cell what- soever thou hast, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven ; and come "take up the cross and follow me." The rev. gentlemen has a clear, distinct de- livery. I -Ie dwelt upon tho neces- sity of earnestness iu any under- taking; how earnest mon wore in their determination to accumulate wealth ; how earnest in their busi- ness life from early morn till late at night ; how earnest for worldly pleasures; how earnest that their particular political party should be victorious at the close of the poll. It was quite proper to be earnest in our business and to provide for infirmity and those dear to us, but what.about our earnestness toward God'? He would to God that the busy men and women of to -day would turn their earnestness iu a spiritual direction. The most im- portant of all the commandments, first, was Faith. In the evening the text was taken from Psalm 23, 1st verse :—"The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want." There were good congregations at both services. Mr. Farthing made,a very favorable im- pression on his hearers hare, and they would be pleased to hear him preach should he ever visit Clinton again. MR. HARRY CANTELON was home over Sunday on one of his semi - occasional visits. The gentleman is now in his fifth year with the one firm, Armstrong Bros,, of Guelph, and during that time has boon al- most constantly on the road.

His thigh and arm were badly broken. - His leg was amputated near the thigh ,joint and the doctors think the broken arm will also have to be taken off. They have small hopes of Iris recon. ery. —The house of Mr. Dugald Walker, 7th con., Aldtrorough, had a narrow escape from being des, troyed by fire a few days ago. The cause of the tire was for a time a mystery. It was noticed, however, that a new tin pail was placed on a bench beside the building, with its bottom turned towards it, focussing the sun's rays on the spot where the tiro began, and after experiulenting on their hands, all were perfectly satisfied that the pail was the cause bf the fire. —The el,leat son of Mr. Alex. Young, who resides in Gray county, aged 15 years, was drawing wood out of the bush. He wee noticed by a young man .named Hammond to bring out a small road, pile it 'on the roadway, and then return, pre sumably to bring out enough to stake up a load for town. As he did not come out for some time search was madeand theyoung man's body was found lying on the ground with one of the front wheels of the waggon standing on his throat. He had evidently been dead an hour when discovered. It could be seen that the young man had been sitting on the load of short wood and that while icoming down a slight in- cline the front tier fell forward, carrying him with it, with the result ae above.
