FORRESTBRS.—The following officers of Court Benruiller, No. 86, C. O. F. were installed iuto office last Monday evening, viz:—C. R., W. Fisher; V. C. R., James Regan; R. Sec., T. Gledhilll; F. Sec., J. Gledhill; Treas., T. Gin; Chap., W. Good; S., W. J. Breen; J., W. Fuller; S. B., W. Oler; J. B., J Stevens. Tit kto onlip NOTES.—Mr. Wm. Straughan is hav- ing a neat house built in the suburbs of the village, on his farm lately pur- chased from Mr Thos Gledhill; when completed it will add to the appearance �f the place. The 24th will be celebrat- ed by a picnic and dancing at the Hal- low. With few exceptions, fall wheat fields look well, spring crops also pre- sent a good appearance, but the re- cent rains have done considerable damage to fields not thoroughly drain- ed; it would pay farmers to drain their lands, even it they had to borrow to do it; there is nothing looks more , dis- couraging or disheartening than to see fields all spotted on account of not being properly drained, after all the expense of cultivating and seeding. The farmers are now busy either fencing or preparing their land for roots; the straight rail fence seems to be the favorite in this neighborhood. The Sons of Temperance purpose hav- ing a social on the evening of the 24th. Mr Archie Devear, formerly of Sea - forth, is visiting friends here, we are glad to see his cheerful countenance again. Mr. Robert Nelson is visiting his mother, Mrs Hobson. The many friends of Mr. Wm. Vanston are glad to know that he is able to be around again after his prolonged illness. Miss Lizzie Gledhill has returned from a month's visit to relatives at Stratford. Mrs Henry Fisher has been very ill for some days. Russian Relief.

Irvine preached here last Sunday evening to a good- sized cengregation, on;the moral con- dition of children and how they should be treated by the Christian church. We understand the Kippen Quarterly Board has petitioned the Goderich District meeting to place this appoint - on the Bayfield Mission. Hensel' circuit has taken the same action with Lake View; the idea is to get a young man on Bayfield mission and give Zurich, Lake View, and Drysdale preaching every Sunday, this seems very desiable.

Monday evening the same gentleman lectured to a large .and appereciative audience on the "phonograph," giving much practical information on that wonderful invention, and drawing great moral truths and useful lessons from its wonderful construction. ' SAD ACCIDENT.—A very sad accident occurred in Cliff & Fosters furniture factory, on Friday last, by which Wm Barber, son of Sam Barber, met his death. He was only twelve years of age, but being very trustworthy and manly for his years, was allowed to act as fireman, when his father, the regu- lar engineer, was ill. He was alone at the time in the engine room, but from appearances must have been caught by the leg in the belt of the drive wheel, and drawn into the wheel, one leg being torn from the body and the skull fractured. Death must have been instantaneous. Great grief is felt throughout the entire community over the sad ending of a promising youth, and everyone expresses sincere sympathy for the bereaved family. May God comfort and sustain them, for no one else can. Ashfield NOTES.—Mr E. Andrew, 12th con, who has very ill, is now convalescent. Mr Thos Helen, 13th con, has been very ill and still.continues poorly, at one time the Dr held out no hope for his recovery.

A GOOD SIGN.—Owing to the in- crease in the nureber of pupils at the Public Sehool, it has been found nec- essary to make an addition of some ,kind to the seating capacity of the school. ,Mr. Cooper, of Clinton, has examined. the- Thillffiriul'erurpose- pntting on another story. This would ntitke a fine looking building worthy of the phwe, and we are very sorry to hear that some would advocate another extension; which must of necessity make a queer looking spec- tacle. come to Ingham during thulast tw weeks to hear the Evangelists. MrTre- vat, of Teeswater, was in ' town on Monday. UNION SERVICES.—The religious un- • ion services conducted by Messrs Cross- iey and Hunter are still increasing in Interest. On Thursday evening of last week Mr Crossley gave a song sermon, taking for his text Isaiah 35, 10, "And the ransomed of the Lord shall return and.come to Zion with songs and ever- lasting joy upon their heads; they shall obtain joy and gladness, and sorrow and sighing shall flee away." While listening to his soul stirring discourse, many hearts were uplifted to God for the outpouring of his Holy Spirit.— During the sermon he sang several pieces, which had great effect upon the audience. On Friday evening his ser- mon was for young men and women, with useful lessons for fathers and mo- thers, as to who should be their guests and occupy seats in their parlors. Mr Hunter read the lesson and explained it, with wonderful power; he is a great exhorter, and pleads so earnestly for all to accept Christ as their Saviour. The service was conducted in the Pres- byterian church, on Sabbath morning, by Rev Mr Hunter. His first lesson was the 126th Psalm, after reading it he offered up one of the most fervent prayers we ever listened to, as the Spirit of God seemed to be falling like dew from heaven, and resting upon the congregation. His second lesson was part of Luke 22nd, and here he showed the seven downward steps of Peter, 1st in the 45th verse, "He found them sleeping," instead of watching; 2nd, in the 50th verse, the resistance offered; 3rd, the 54th verse, "And Peter follow- ed afar off," as many are doing to -day; 4th, in the 55th verse, "Peter sat down among them," in bad company; 5th, in the 57th verse, "And he denied him, saying, woman, I know him not," the fear of man; 6th, the 58th verse, "And Peter said, man, I am not," man's weakness when trusting in self; 7th, the 60th verse, "And Peter said, man, I know not what thou sayest," falsely pleading ignotance. His text was tak- en from Luke 23, 21, "But they cried, saying, crucify him, crucify him !" From this he showed the tender sym- pathy of Christ, that even while nailed to the cross, he pleaded with his Father to forgive them. While he thus spoke _ina,Lehecl_ tears of joy, and some from anguieli-Orirtrol;atud-, when -the -gather.=. ing in of the redeemed shall meet, we believe that some will take him by the hand and remind him of that sermon in Wingham. Rev Mr Crossley occu- pied the pulpit in the Methodist church, on Sabbath morning, taking his text from 1st John 4, 18, "But perfect love casteth outlear." He spoke very plain and described Christian perfection so clearly that the audience was delighted with the emotion. • On Monday morn- ing we frequently heard this remark, "Were you at the Methodist church yesterday morning?" trthe answer was no, "Well you missed it;" or "Were you at thePresbyterian church yesterday morning?" and if the reply was yes, "My, but wasn't it something grand?" The meeting in the town hall, at 4 p.m., on Sunday,was certainly an evidence of how the addresses were appreciated the previous Sunday. The hall was crowded with eager listeners. Mr Crossley, before commencing his address sang "Papa, come this way.",,„ The words upon which his discourser was founded were "Abhor that which is evil, cleave to that which is good." His loving words of kindness fell upon the audience with convincing power. Mr Hunter's subject was the dark val- ley—international raildeay, which he described as the liquor traffic, showing the sin and misery which is the direct outcome of intemperance. In the evening service was conducted in the Presbyterian church, the place being so crowded that seats were placed be- hind the pulpit, and doubtless some could not get in. Mr Hunter read part of the 5th chapter of Matthe*, and, with his usual tact, showed forth many beautiful lessons therefrom. Mr Cross- ley preached a most interesting and instructive sermon. Taking .different passages of Scripture, he showed many sins into which man had fallen. When speaking of the liquor business, he proved that men lacked wisdom, to tamper with strong drink, and claimed that the Bible said so. He said that they would sing the "Red, White and Blue," which was very appropriate, as they give their white money, took red wine, and got the bluee for nothing. Monday evening Mr Hunter read the lesson from Luke 14. He pleaded with the audience to give up making such excuses, and come right out for Christ. Mr Crossley and Prof. Scott sang as a duet, "Thinking of home," with won- derful effect on the audience. Mr Crossley preached a very powerful ser- mon, referring to many passages of Scripture, while he described man in his different stages of life. The Bible reading in the Baptist church, on Tuesday at 4 p.m., was well attended and was instructive. Tuesday evening Blyth WEDDING BELLS.—On Wednesday morning, at her father's residence near Walton, Miss Bella Moore, who has many friends here, was united in mar- riage to Dr Kermickle, of Ripley. A number of guests from Blyth attended the wedding. Best wishes attend them. THE C. 0. 0. F.—The entertainment under the management of the C. 0. 0. F., on Friday evening, was fairly well attended. Prof Meeke sustained the reputation which preceded him, "The Baren and The Creeds of the Bells" were particularly well z ended by him, and as a humorist in "Samantha in- terveiwing the boss mason," he was exceedingly funny. Our popular comic, Mr Floody, sang a couple of songs, which as usual were greeted with rounds of applause. The mouth organ band gave a few selections, and the singing of the National Anthem brought to a close a very enjoyable evening. rEs.---Mass-was....celakrated. in St Michaels on Sunday a.m., Rev Father McGee officiated.

Miss Moffat was in Clinton on Saturday. The new band enlivened the town on Friday evening for the first time, they have made splendid progress and are engaged to furnish music at Exeter on the 24th; we have no doubt they will do this side of the county credit. A number of our citizens attended the meetings of Hunter & Crossely in Wingham, on Sunday. Dr Shaw, of ye olden time in Blyth, and Mr Geo McTaggart, of Clinton, spent Sunday in town. House cleaning is the order of the day. Miss F. Floody has been seriously ill for several clays, with inflammation of the bowels, but we are pleased to learn that she is improving. ACGIDENT.—An_ accident _happene to a young son of Mr Thos Noble one day last week, whereby he had a mir- aculous escape from instant death. His father was picking stones, using a team and waggon, the child was play- ing about the wagon when the horses moved, catching laim under the wheel and almost crushing the life out of him. RUNAWAY.—On Friday last Mr Hugh McDairmid had the misfortune to break his buggy. It seems that he left the horse standing while he shut the gate, and the animal, seeing he was free, took a waltz along the road, at a faster gait than it is in the habit of going. He was unable to keep on the road, and struck some posts, causing him to get free from the buggy. The buggy and harness were broken, but not to such an Axtent as to render them in- capable '•if being repaired, but the horse escaped without injury. Chiselhurst.

Mr Wm Nicholson, of Gode- rich township, has moved into the house formerly occupied by the late Rev Geo Jameison. Our excuse for selling Boy's Clothing is that we think that it's just a little better for the children than can be found in any other store. It is you who must teach us whether it is or is not. We firmly believe in one thing, and it is that it is better to give people who buy from us the very best service we can, even though we make but little profit. The profit will be sure to come a little later on in tbe shape of an in- creased trade, and we confi- dently affirm, judging from the sale of our Boy'sClothing,that it is a little better Made, a lit- tle better toned up and finisb- ed, a little better quality, and a gooddeal cheaper than our neighbors are showing; hence the increasing demand for our Boy's Suits, Waistell, of McGillivray township,* has spent the last six weeks in jig charged with bigamy, was tried hefo His Honor Judge Toms, Wedpead last Richard had been married; 1849, to one Susannah Cook,'"Yela still living, and on March 19, 1 a second ceremony perfoxep. b Mr Clement, at that time' et minister at Exeter, to Ann Cohlei of McGillivray.

Seaforth. FOOTBALL.—A Western Association football match was played at Galt, on Saturday, between the Hurons of Seaforth, and Galt. A very large crowd of enthusiastic spectators wit- nessed one of the best games of the season. From start to finish the play was close and, exciting; brilliant runs, combinations and hard checking being the order of the day. Both teams played ball from strut to finish and there was every chance to play ball good. There was only a very slight wind during the first half, which freshened up a little after half time. The Seaforth team was considerably weakened by the loss. of Smith, their best forward, but for all that played a good hard game. Galt players were not in the best of trim, but the game put up would make an eye witness wonder 'what kind of game they put up when they are in shape. Galt was the winner, the score standing 2 to 0. The next game will be played in Sea - forth, on Saturday, 21st. East Wawanosh. Kippen. NOTES.—The R. T. T. held an open lodge last Tuesday evening, in their hall.
