W. -Findlay- son, of Detroit, an old Clinton boy, pays this compliment to the NEw NEw ERA is one of my most welcome visitors, and I am pleas- ed to see that it keeps to the front as one of the all alive up to the times sheets of our country.' IT WAS LIP LOYALTY.—A Clintonian 40.w in Chicago, gives the following to shoWs how quickly some men can change their allegiance :—" I believe 'there are to -day five Tories to one Grit in Chicago. I will cite one case of Ca- nadian loyalty (?). A Tory from Cana- da arrived in Chicago one day—next day he applied for his first neturaliza- tion papers." NoTgs.---Mr Burrows, of Detroit, cousin of Mr Thos. Stevenson, died this week; he forMerly resided at Hen- fryn, where he owned a saw mill. Mr R. Ransford has improved Materially his property on Huron St, by the erec- tion of a lattice fence and in other ways, Mr John Stephenson has now a large and commodious building for his pump business and is occupying the same. The Clinton Marble WOrke have put on the road a fine delivery waggon. There were only three appeals against assessment, and at the Court of Revi- sion on Thursday night, all these were dismissed. Regular meeting of Coun- cil next Monday. Mu Jas Turnbull, of Toronto, is visiting in town. Mr T. Jackson, jr., left MI a trip to the old country, on Monday. The members of Huron Star Lodge, I. 0.0. T., pur- pose visiting the dleaforth lodge on Wednesday evening next. We are much pleased to state that Mrs Jas. Werry has about recovered her wont- ed health; she has been under the care of Miss Clara Call, a professional and efficient nurse. Mr R. A.' McVean, representing the Lcindon Advertiser, passed through here on Saturday; he succeeded in increasing the list of sub- scribers at this place; the Advertiser is a clean and newiey morning paper, and there is no r-itanon why it should not receive a liberal support along the L. H. (t B. Mr R. Taylor, jr., for some time past shorthand clerk in the office of W. Doherty 80 Co, has gone to Stratford, Iris place here being taken by Mr J. P. Doherty. Mrs Duncan, who returned from her daughter's in Michigan, about a month since, has been confined to her room nearly all the time since, and is at present laid up. We are sorry to hear of the ser- ious illness of Mr Geo Grantham, sec- tion foreman on the L. H. & B.; he has been laid up for several weeks and is seemingly no better. Several days since Mr Will Shipley had the mis- fortune to inflict a severe cut in the calf of his leg, although the wound was stitched up at the time, it had to be opened up again; he is now getting along, however, as well as could be expected. Mr Will H. Webb, who has been residing in New York for some time, has returned here, and is now employed with Harland Bros. Mrs Reid, who has been residing in Hullett, has moved back to town to reside. A new barn, of liberal dimensions, is be- ing erected on the farm of Mr W. Robinson, Huron road, Goderich town- ship; the foundation was built by Mr Thos. Walker, and the framework will be done by Mr Mains. Mr Geo Con- nell last week sold two good drivers at paying prices. The infant son of Mr Walter Coats, of Wingham, died suddenly on Sunday night. On Tues- day next Clinton will lose a most ex- cellent young lady, by the marriage of Miss Maggie Paisley, (eldest daughter of W. J. Paisley) to Mr Robt. G. Duns - more, a well known Huronian, who expects to make New York his future home. Miss Mary Agnew has return- ed from Buffalo on account of the ser- ious illness of her mother, who, we are glad to hear, is improving. A certain gentleman took a couple of ladies out driving the other night, and although, the roads were muddy they could not deny they love(d) it: Miss McIntyre, of Vassa, Mich. who has been visiting her brother, Mr James McIntyre, for the last three months, left for home this week. Mrs John Foster, who has been visiting at Wingham for several days, is home again. Mr Tisdale, of Brantford, manufacturer of livery stable fittings, was up here this week, the guest of 1Vir Kennedy, whose stable is furnished throughout with these handsome equipments. "Mrs Hunt, sr., celebrated her 81st birthday. one day last week; she is active and vigor- ous for one who has passed so many milestones. Mrs Calbick, who has been bedfast for months, was able to et up and dress herself on Tuesday. Mayor Doherty has got a beautiful bay window added to his residence on Rattenbury avenue, it is certainly a piece of the best workmanship that has been done in the county, and re- flects credit on the designer and build- er, Mr S. S. Cooper. We are request- ed- to- say that _the- Salvation -Army -I kindly thanks the timely advice given by a friend in last issue, concerning the open air meeting hela on the Queen's birthday before the hotels, wishing to say in addition that the proprietors are quite willing that the open air meetings should be held there. Rev Mr Uzell, (nesbyterian)from near Sarnia, was this week visiting his cousin, Mrs Joy. Mr Bla,ckall has sold his splendid driver to Messrs Polley and Hicks, of Goderich for a goad figure. Dr Turnbull is away from town for a few days, his practise in the meantime being looked after by Dr. Gibson. The Brethren purpose • holding religious exercises here for it week about the 23rd inst. Mrs Samue 1 Brown is away visiting her relatives at Salem. The insurance companies allowed Mr John Sheppard $200 for the three small buildings destroyed by fire and $180 for the injnry to the hotel building; this was not a very exorbitant allowance. Mrs Oliver, and daughter, (mother to Miss Jessie Oliver, Clinton) who have been residing for some time ,near New York, move to Seaforth to reside this week. When Mr J. A Giffin left Clin- ton Collegiatefor that of St. Catharines, he expected to receive a salary of $1000 a year; the fact that he is receiving $1100 is none the less acceptable because it was unexpected. A large number of export cattle—about 100—were deliv- ered here for Messrs Hearn and:Smith, on Wednesday; there were some very good animals among them, a couple of steers belonging to Mr White, ofT. uck- ersmith, going over 1500 each. Mrs David:Welsh, of Sanilac, Mich., is vis- iting here, as is also Mr Peter Cole, an old resident of the town. Mr Thomas Clarke left town this week to avoid service of a summons for being drunk and disorderly; Tom has a good trade bat is his own worst enenoy. Mr R6 Dousling is not improving in health. It is reported here that Mr M. C. Cam- cron has taken out a writ claiming $5000 damages, against Mr Jonathan Miller, one of the wealthy residents of Goderich, who is said to have been in- strumental in circulating the Gore statements. BUSINESS CHANGES. — Mr. J. W. Emmerton, barber, has disposed of his stock and business to Mr. Evans, (who was burned out) and purposes studying dentistry with Mr Agnew. Mr Arthur Couch has entered into partnership With Mr Jas. A. Ford, butcher, and the business will henceforth be carried on under the title of Ford & Couch; • they will mike a strong team. CYCLE SPOKES.—Mr. J. W. Lang- ford will sport a pneumatic in Goder- • ich, having purchased a Brantford ' from Cooper & Co., before leaving here. Messrs. James Noble, and T. H. Moore, of Tuckersmith, have pur- chased Brantford Safeties. The track at Exeter on the 21th, was very heavy for racing, however the Brantford pneumatic showed its superiority by getting first place. HORSES.—Mr. Thos. Tipling has been here for several days buying horses for the Grand Trunk Freight stables, ,Detroit, and pu2chased four fine heavy draught geldings, which were shipped Wednesdy. Tom is an expert in L.hprefiesh, his long experience while a resident here in business, and also in, company with Mr. Geo. Cox, and other well-known buyers, not alone making him familiar with all the points of a good horse, but giving him the most accurate knowledge of the very best stock raisers in this section. HOME AGAIN.—On Saturday even- ing Mr and Mrs A. H. Manning return- ed from Florida, and were welcomed • home by a few intimate friends who knew of their coming. Mr Manning has improved- considerably during his absence, being able to move about with a good deal of freedom, and feels . much better also, but is yet far from being fully restored to health. He is in good spirits and meeting so many of his old friends since his return, the cordial greetings given him show the • deep hold that he has on the affections Of the people. EVANGELISTS. --Messrs Crossley and Hunter, the well known evangelists, dropped off at Clinton for a short tine on Monday, on their way down from Wingharn'where for four weeks they have been holding special services. A number of old friends were pleased to ineet---thern. They highly com-pliment- • ed the Wingham correspondent of the NEW ERA for the very excellent and accurate reports of the meetings that i he had furnished. They leave n a few days on a trip to the old country and return early in the fall to continue with renewed energy the work they are engaged in. PROPERTY CHANGE. — Mr David Tiplady has bought from Mr. Alex. Watt, his property on the base line, just north of town, consisting of 18 acres, with house and outbuildings, for the sum of $2,500; this is an excel- lent property and the price paid is quite reasonable. Its sale means that Mr Watt, who has resided on it for years, will not return, but will reside in Tuckersmith, we are sorry to lose him from this neighborhood, as he is a sterling good fellow. Mr Tiplady has • sold his farm of 65 acres, on the base „ line to Mr W. Tiplady and sons, for the sum of $5,000. This is a seemingly good price, but there are not many farms anywhere, that are in better condition, everything being literally in -fir st-class condition. COWS AT LARGE. — A good many • people are of the opinion, and properly iso, that cows should not be allowed to • run at large during the summer mon ths, but there being no by-law to prevent it, they can roam at their own sweet will. People who cultivate gardens • are at the mercy of breechy bovines, and no matter how careful they may . be themselves, are almost sure to find • their work and property destroyed in a single night. Cows at large are a nuisance, and there is not a sound rea- son why it should be allowed. If the Spinal cord of some members of the council was only a little firmer, a by- law dealing with the matter would be introduced and passed at the next meeting of council. Toon Him IN.—Considerable amuse- ment was created here on the 24th, over a foot race. It appears that a youth in town' named Cassles, who was under the influence of liquor, or pretended to be, stumped Mr. Polly, of VItoderich, a well-known sport, to a hundred yard foot race, Mr Polly re- • ed 17 offering to bet he could get a Goderich man who could out -run Cassles; the money was posted, and Mr. John Knox was the man chosen, brit he was too slow for the boy. Mr P, not being satisfied put up another five and had the race over, -but again the Clinton ma nwon. Mr Harry Read •remarked in the evening that he would like to run Cassles for: $10 a side, the naoney Was promptly put up, and Wed- rieaday evening was selected for the tace, but the former hacked out .ARM WEATH.
