Mrs Air - am, late of New Cobourg, but former ly of Hullett, is negotiating for pro- perty here, and has taken up her residence in Clinton in the meantime. SEOULD NOT BE.—A drive be- tween Clinton and Goderich shows a large number of fields in which the presence of mustard is strikingly pre- , Talent. In fact some fields, supposed to contain grain, seem to contain nothing but mustard, and the farm- ers in whose fields this weed is grow- ing should do something to prevent its spread to the annoyance of others. A CONVENIENCE.—U. S. Council Chilton requests The Star to announce that he bus effected arrangements by which branches of his consular agency will be established at Clinton 'and Wingham, whereby shippers will be enabled to make their entries at these pointe, the local agents (who will be announced latter on) reporting to the head office here.

SLIGHTLY ASTRAY.—The Exeter Times says ;—Iu the election of 1886 West Huron gave 337 majority for the Mowat candidate ; East Huron, 443 ; South Huron 507—a total of 1,287. In the last election West Huron gave 112 ; East Huron 170 ; South Huron, 158—a majority of 430, ff,•�, reducing the former majority by 827, t." • or by two thirds. [East Huron gave 334 more than the Times gave it credit ci%• for.] SuDDFr DEATH.—Mr Edwin T. Coates, publisher of the Musical Her- ald, and Choir Master of McCaul St. Methodist Church, Toronto, was kill - a%' ed on Saturday by being thrown from his horse at the corner of Church and ^s' F,..w,:• Queen streets.

HAHVEST PROf3PFCTt3.—For an all- round crop, we do not know that things ever looked better than they do at present. Haying has already been c:mirenced, and I•lmises to 1• very heavy,; fall wheat has improved generally since the spring and will be ready to cut before long. Other grains all promise well. The frequ- eat rains, followed by fine weather, have been splendid for pastures, which has been luxuriant all the sea- s In. The fruit crop will not be as heavy as at first anticipated but will nevertheless be a good crop. Mies L. Beesley leaves in a few days on a visit to Moosejaw, N. W. T., where she has a brother residing. A Monarch Separator seen moving along the street towards the Foundry reminds us that threshing is not far off. Miens Williams, Plummer and Cruckehank were successful in their examinations at the Normal School Toronto. We are pleased to see that. Mr Will Malloch is now able to be out, look- ing very little worse for his long con- finement. Rev. J. S Fisher, of Arthur, was a caller at the NEw ERA this week, be is looking well and is prospering on his new field of labor. Mr W. Johnston, of Carberry, who bas been visiting relatives here, re- turned to the Northwest last week, being ticketed through by A. 0. Pat- terson. D. C. Moore, of this town, for some time connected with the Salvation Army, has been promoted to the posi- tion of Ensign, with quarters at Woodstock. Mr W. Steep, who some time ago went to Cali4ornia, for his health, has returned to town, and we regret to know that he did not receive all the benefit he had hoped for. Mrs E. Moore, who has been visit- ing at Walkerton for some time, re- turned home this week, she was ac- companied by her daughter Mary, who comes home on a visit. Mrs R. Manning, of Exeter, was the guest of Mrs A. Taylor for sever- al days last week ; Mrs Manning has been in poor health for some time, but we are glad to learn is improving. Mr Robt Matheson, formerly edi- tor of this paper, and more recently Principal of the public schools at Bill- ings, Mont., has returned to Chicago, where he will again enter newspaper work. Next Tuesday, the let of July,twill be observed as a public holiday. There will be no celebration here, but this omission will be more than coun- terbalanced by the celebration that will take place on the 12th. On Saturday evening an old man who had been disturbing the Doherty Band, while it was playing in the open air. was taken to the lock up, and kept there until Sunday morning, when he was set at liberty and sent out of town. Mr Frank Mitchell, of Mitchell & Currie, Sarnia, (an old Clinton boy) was renewing his friendships this week. He looks well and says he manages to get three meals a day and a place to sleep in, which is pretty good these hard times. ONE PHASE OE THLLIR LIFE.—The Methodist ministers on the following circuits in this County, will next Sun- day preach farewell sermons, they having been appointed to new fields of labor ;—Rattenbury St., Clinton, Holmesville, Blyth, Nile, Walton, Varna, Bayfield and Kippen. In the case of Kippen and Nile, the minis-' ters respectively just change Locations. FLING OUT THE BANNERS.—A5 there is likely to be a large crowd here on the 12th of July, everything that will make the town attractive should be done. All who have flags or banners should bring them out. We presume there will be a liberal display of bunting, and the combina- tion of all will do rnuch to make visit- rs feel that they are welcome and carry away a good opinion of the place. FORRESTER vs WOOD.—The credi- tors of the Racey Estate will no doubt be glad to know that they are to be benefitted by the judgment of Justice Rose, just rendered, whereby .Wood Leggatt, of Hamilton, must pay the snm of $791.22, the value of a certain quantity 1)f iron taken by them to cover their. own account with R. M. Racey, and which has been held to be a fraudulent preference, The fol- lowing is the note from legal items in the daily papers: —"Action by the assignee for the benefit of creditors of one Racey. to set aside a transaction between Racey and the defendants, and to recover the value of the iron. The evidence was taken at Goderich, and the case was now argued. Judg- ment for the plaintiff for $791.22 and costs. Manning & Scott for plaintiffs MacKelcan, Gibson Fe Gamsby for defendants. ERI'A1 ').—The party whose name appears in the following letter hes been having a lengthened controversy in the Exeter Times over a lecture delivered by him some time ago :.t Elimville. That there was at least something of amisumlerslcnd- ing is evident from this letter ;— HOME.—Mr Will McTaggart, who has a very good situation in a whole - ale dry goods establishment in Tor- onto, is home for a few days. Mr R. Gibson, who_hasbeen attending Mc. Gill Medical College, Montreal, is home for his vacation. He did very well at his examinations and next year we hope he will be able to add M, D. to his name and not be troub- HURON CENTRAL EXHIBITION.— The Directors met on Wednesday afternoon and completed the revision of the Prize List. It will be issued at once and patrons and exhibitors will be pleased with the discovery that the Work of revision has, been most carefully done, and that large additions have been made to the dif- ferent classes comprising the list. Mr Alex. McKenzie was elected a Director in the place of Mr Gen. E. Pay, whose removal is a great loss to the Board. The dates fixed upon for the annual Exhibition are Wed- nesday, Thursday and Friday, 1st, 2nd and 3rd October. The list of attractions will eclipse all former years and make the Exhibition of 1890 the leading one of the west. A lecture was given in the base- ment of Willis church, last Monday evening, by a student from Toronto University, a native of Bulgaria, or what is called in Scripture, Mace- donia. He gave a short but very interesting account of the religion of his country, which is the Greek church; his conversion to the Pro- testant faith by missionaries from this country, and the habits and cus- toms of his people. Wages are very low, women get only five cents a day, and do a great deal of the hard work The habits and implements of the country are very simple; wheat was cleaned by holding it up to the wind. At the close of the lecture he exhib- ited some articles of clothing, eating utensils and pictures. He spoke of his difficulty in raising means to get an education. eo that he might return to his native country as a missionary. There was a large audience, who ap- preciated his lecture, and gave him a collection of about $14.

The account of the Newa- DEAR S1r.,—Since so much has been said about Mr A. M, Todd's lecture at Elimville, it is only just that your readers should know which is right. The trustees distinctly understood and so announced thatMr Todd would lecture on "Equal Rights." \Vhat his agreement with the Orange Order 1 was we cannot say, but it was distin- ctly stated to the Trustee Board that it would not be alecture on "Orange - ism" but on "Equal Rights" as that question agitates the pubtic; mind at present, and it was an the strength o'f that statement that the church was open to the lecture. Suffice it to say that they and the audience were dis- appointed, for Mr Todd devoted him. tell' almost entirely to Orangeism, and an Orangeman's obligations. Signed on behalf of the Trustees, Tiros.
