The people of Canada are heartily tired of iariff taxation, and eager for tariff • . reform. • s ' The Montreal Witness states that "if the 'United States removes its war tariff, Cana- ' da could.,nct keep up protection for a year." -,r True es gospel. Hon. Mr Mowat is not quite asradical in some of his reforms as we would like to see him, but all the same he has been a good man at the head of affairs, and has kept the province free from the taint of corruption or eitravaance, Hon. Ur Calmat, anticipating a victory in Vatidreuil last week, had ordered a eumptuous repast to be served in grand style at one of the ohief Montreal hotels, but the election went the wrong way for r Cuimet, and the supper was untouched, d, Frankland, of Toronto, is moving to tbe old country, because, he says, "the catte trade is killed and he can't make a livi g at it," Yet Ald. Frankland is the man who. told the people of West Huron that "the English market was the beet market for the farmers." Great Britain's imports from Canada show a falling off of 81 per cent. for the month of March, and 53 per cent. for "the quarter ending March 31, as com- pared with the skme period last year, all the boasts about the English mar - et to the contrary, notwithstanding. s , MolifilWitness, which is right on the same, states that the Liberal victory in Vaudreuil, last week, was a victory for reform, and not for Separate Schools, s some of the papers try to make out, Mr Harwood, the Liberal, increased his vote right among the Protestants, which would herdly be the case had the issue been •a religions one.

The farm oontains 117 sores, and was purchased, by Alr Lewts McDonald for $6,000. Mr MoDonald owns the adjoin - g farm. The Ronald works, Brussels, shipped on.

Kemp has purchased the resi- dence at present occupied by Mr J. M. Best, Seaforth, from Mr Angus MoDermid ard the Scarlett property adjoining it on Gode- rich street. He purchased the MoDermid property few $1,000, and the Soarlett pro- perty for 1,250. Mr James Bell, of the 18th concession of MoKillop, now mourns the great loss of his son George. He was working for Mr Oliver Harris, Mitchell road, Fullarton, and on Monday suddenly dropped dead. He was in the prime of manhood, being just 24 years of age. The Seaforth Sun says :—We are this week called upon to chronicle the death of Mies Mary Anderson, which sad event oc- curred at her home in this town, on Tues- day. The deceased lady had been in deli- cate health during the past ten years, hav- ing suffered much from an abscess. She was a consistent member of the Presbyte- rian church, and death was a happy release to her sufferings upon this earth. A terrifio rainstorm passed over Gorrie Wednesday night. Between 12 and 1 o'clock the mill -dam gave way before the heavy strain of water. The piers, gates and superstructure were carried off, and an immense gap was washed out of the em- ba.nkment. The escaping water soon filled the river bed below the dam, and Main street bridge was apparently lifted squarely from its foundation and carried bodily down stream. The loss to Mr Dane, owner of the mill, will scarcely be less than 82000, and several months' time will be required to repair the damage. The municipality also loses heavily in the destruction or the bridge. One day last week tha family of Mr Wm. Kydd, of the 4th concession of Usborne, narrowly escaped fatal results by poison- ing. Some time ago Mrs Kydd purchased a quantity of what she supposed to be ginger, and taking same home plaoed it in the cupboard for future purposes. A few days ago she had occasion to bake some gin- ger -bread, and used some of the supposed ginger. The bread was baked and apparent ly all right, and the family partook freely thereof, but were soon all siok and vomi- ting. A doctor was at once summoned, and on examination it was found that helli bore had been used in the bread instead of ginger.

H, Mooney has issued an eight -page paper descriptive of Wing - ham, its growth, prosperity, &c. it is excellently written up, is illustrated, containing biographical sketches of a number of prominent Hien and indus- tries, and gives the following interest- ing sketch of the early history of the town and its present status: The earliest actual settlement within the present limits of the now flourish- ing town of Wingham was dade by John Cornyn and family comprising OP evert largelrd PpeCUlatiVe oharaC, Palle NetbeVieede aPe eeld werl'h ter, aud. it was uotuntil 1873 that the people began to seriously consider in- corporation as a village, (The Fisher Brothers settled at the "Plot," and built the first mill, and we the MC 40$ of concentrating quite an amount of trade, in what is now known as Lower Town, which at one time was in a fair way to become an incorporated village, but at the present time there are only few houses and a handful of people.) In 187Q, through the efforts of a few energetic, clear-sighted citizens, an ex- tension of the G. T. Railway was run into Wingham. Wingham was incorporated as a vil- lage on January 1st, 1874, the popula- tion at that time being slightly in ad- vance of 700. Mr Benjamin Willson was the first Reeve, being elected by acclamation. The next move was to incorporate Wingham as a town, which was done on the 6th of October, 1878, with a population of 2,072. The citizens appreciating Mr. Benj. Willson's:worth as a town ruler, elect- ed him to the office of first Mayor of the town, by acclamation. At the time of Wingham's incorpora tion as a village, 18734, the population was just sufficient to warrant it, (i.e. barely over 700) while at the close of 1876 it had increased to over 2,000, and it is now estimated that it contains at least 3,00, exclusive of Lower Wing - ham. The town has become an im- portant centre of trade, and has one of the largest furniture factories to be found in Ontario, viz., the Gilchrist, Green Co., giving employment to o' e. 100 hands. In addition to the Grand Trunk Rail- way, we have an extension of the Ca- nadian Pacific, The town is pleasantly situated on the Maitland River, the north and south branches uniting here, and providing excellent water power for manufacturing purposes. We have in the town a first-class water works system, a volunteer compa,ny,with Mr. Chas.Williams as captain; a town hall, with a seating capacity of 800; a public park of eight acres, and a half -mile race course; a school with eight teach- ers instructing the young, while :for places of worship we are well supplied, including the Salvation Army. Among the large number of indus- tries, we have flouring mills, furniture factoriee, broom factory, pump facto- ries, foundry, chair factory, tanneries. saw mills, cooper shops, and a salt blcck, giving employment to hun- dreds of men, boys and girls. We also haveoe.Wapapers,_ the Times- and Advance, one chartered and one pri- vate bank, and a Mechanics' Institute, with a library of nearly 2,000 volumes. The town is lighted by electricity, and the merchants and business men are alive and loyal to its best interests. The place was named from Wing- harn, a small town in England. his sons, Thomas,William, Robert and John, (deceased) in the summer of 1858. They built the first house, in the place where the Queen's Hotel now stands, in 1859. It, was a log building, and was called the King William Hotel, being the first public house in the locality. Portions of this structure can now be seen at the rear of the Queen's Hotel, at the corner of Josephine and John streets. Mr. John Cornyn, sr., who died in 1868, originally lived in Mor- nington, Perth county, and came to Turnberry in 1856, settling on lot 4, con. 1 of that township, where he lived until 1858, when he settled within the limits of the town. His sons, William and Thomas are now the earliest set- tlers,who are alive and residents of the town of Wingham. Next after the Cornyns came Edward Foleyland the famous Ed. Farley, who now lives on the outskirts of Lower Wingham, where he first settled. Edward Foley, in the succeeding year (1859) built a frame house, used first as a store, and subsequently as a public house, known as the Commercial. (The building of the above house was superintended by our esteemed townsman, Mr. John Hanna.). A child born in the Foley family was the first born in Wingham. Mr. Foley was accompanied or follow- ed at very short intervals, by Peter and Archibald Fisher, Peter and Thos. Long, Wm. and Robt. Sadler, (deceased) John and Thos. Gtegory, and Thomas Abraham. Following the advent of the above named gentlemen, came others in more or less rapid succession, and although Wingham continued °to grow apace, its growth was not purely • NOTES. Wingham was surveyed in 1&55. Mr. Alex.' Dodds was the first pump maker in town. Thos. Carruthers was the first black- smith in Wingham.
