The Presbyterians, of Gorrie, failed
to extend a call to a, minister at the
meeting of the Presbytery in Harris -
ton, on Tuesday. It was also decided,
at the request of the bulk of his con-

fine clear voice, and sings with feeling.
The altars were beautifully decorated
with flowers and lighted tapers. Rev.
Father West delivered an excellent
address on the Resur rection.
The annual educational services in
the Methodist Church were conducted
last Sunday by Rev. William Smythe,
of Clinton, whose sermons proved him
to be one of the most able and eloquent
preachers in the Conference. This was

and those who heard him were very
favorably impressed. The offerings for
the Educational Society were in advance

The adjourned vestry meeting of St.
Paul's church was held in the school
room, on Monday evening, the Rector
in the chair. The churchwardens' fin-
ancial report was read and adopted,
showing a balance of over $200 in hand;
by a vote of the vestry, the wardens
were instructed to pay off a note of
$250 now due, and the motion author-
izing them to borrow that amount,
was rescinded; by voluntary subscrip-
tion, the balance was then raised. In
announcing that the amount required
had been raised, Mr Fairlie expressed
his sincere thanks to the vestry and
congregation in the way they had
supported him, and hoped that the
next vestry meeting they would be
able to wipe out the balance of float-
ing debt; amounting-tcrabout-$3ft A
hearty vote of thanks was tendered to
the wardens, the •auditors, the choir
and those who assisted the choir dur-
ing the past year. The wardens and
sidesmen were appointed a finance
committee to look after the envelope
system.
Anniversary Services.
The anniversary services of Ontario St.
Methodist Church Sabbath School, held
last Sunday and Monday, were much more
successful than even the most hopeful had
looked for. In the morning Rev. Jos Edge
preached a good sermon from Isaiah 4th,
2-4, "The Branch of the Lord."
In the afternoon the church was filled
with the scholars of the school and their
friends. The children, led by Mr Oakes,
rang several pieces as only children oan,
whilst several well-known hymns were
sting heartily by all present. Mr Tiplady,
the Superintendent, spoke briefly of the
progress of the school, and then Rev. A.
Stewart gave an excellent address to (let)
the children and young people; (2nd) the
teachers and workers, and (Brd) the parents.
To each of these he addressed brief words
of counsel and cheer. As one of his illus.
trations he told of the old Scotch woman
who had lost her memory, and forgot every-
thing said to her almost- immediately. - To
test the value of early instruction, her pas-
tor npon one occasion commenced to repeat
the 23rd Psalm, and she, after being thus
started, recited it all through. She re-
membered what she had learned in her
youth, thongh the memory of old age was
blank. Rev Mr Edge based Lis address
npon the words •'[1. sower went forth to
sow,t' and illustrated his remarks with
packages of different kinds of seeds, which
he used in drawing many answers from the
children. The seed he compared to God's
word. Both were God's gifts, in both was
life, in both was variety, both must be pro-
perly used, and both produced great re-
sults. The servile was a very enjoyable
one. He also preached in the evening to a
full house, his sermon being an excellent
one on "There remaineth a rest to the peo-
ple of God.
The church on Monday evening was
packad full, the chair being occupied by the
Superintendent, Mr D. Tiplady, when the
following program was rendered :- The
Secretary's report showed the number on
roll to be 260, with an averige attendance
of 196. Recitations were iven by Delia
Finch, Walter Armstrong, Stanley Bear,

generous response of $101.20. •

The following resolution speaks for
itself, and requires no further comment,
than to say that tile subject of it has
earned and well •deserves the, recogoi.
Oen that is here_given him :-
Moved by J. W. Shaw, seconded by
J. 0, Stevenson, that.the Clinton OM-
leglate Institute Ward, desires to re.
cord its sense of loss at the retirement
therefrom of Robert Coats, Esq„ and
its high estimate ef his valuable ser-
vices, on behalf of the school under its
charge and on behalf of the cause of
education. Understanding and appre-
_ elating the great heneate of higher ed-
ucation, he has brought to the service
of the board, in past years, an intelli-
gence, wisdom and discretion to which
• may be traced a fair share of the credit
for the present efficiency of the Clin-
ton Collegiate Institute. Mr Coats
was a member of the Board under
whose direction the Grammar School
was instituted and opened in Clinton
in the year 1866, and he has been for a
large part of the time since then, up to
the tirriebf his retirement, at the end
of the past year, a member of the seve-
ral Boards having charge of the school.
The Board expresses the hope that,
though Mr Coats has retired from act-
ive duty as a member, the school, whose
affairs he has so long assisted to ad-
minister, may for many years still con-
tinue to receive. in an inofficial capa-
city, the advantage of his ripe experi-
ence and enlightened counsel.

A. Sunday Night's Experience
in three Scenes.
SCENE I. -Two young inen,apparent-
ly from the country, enter town in the
best of spirits; after a short drive
around they halt before a pretty resi-
dence, tie their horse securely, and re-
mark on the beauty of the evening.
The stars are shining brightly-, also the
electric lights, and they take their
bearings thus: -"That light over there
is the centre of the town, when we get
to it we can easily find our way out."
They then ring, the door is opened, a
friendly_ greeting,- a merry: peal •of
laughter, and -curtain.
SCENE II. -A few hours later two
young men exit from the same house.
Can it be the same two, or does the
chane in the night make the differ-
ence t The stars no longer shine, they
have become obscured by clouds, rain
is falliyg in torrents, the horse had be-
come uneasy, and broken a shaft of
the cart. Assistance was soon at hand, I
the shaft repaired, when lo, the electric
light had gone out, but a guide was
found, and they were soon on their
gloomy way home.
SCENE III. -Place, on the road in
the vicinity of Kinburn; the morning
light is breaking in the eastern sky,
everything is quiet except the drip, drip
of a heavyrain, when along jogs a
horse drawing a cart and two inmates.
A re they asleep ? No, for one asks the
other how he feels, and the answer is,
"Wet, awful wet. Say, Tom, the next
time we are caught like this, we will
stay all night." "Well, I think we did
that this time, Meh. Well, we had a
nice time there, anyhow."
Medical Association.
The regular quarterly meeting of
the Huron Medical Association met in
tiae Council Chamber,- Clinton,- on
Tuesday, the 18th, when the following
members were present: -Doctors Gra-
ham, Brussels; Smith, McKity and
Bethune, Seaforth; McDonald, Wing -
ham; Ferguson, Blyth; McLaughlin,
Auburn; Amos, Exeter; Taylor, Gode-
rich; Elliott and and Armstrong,
Brucelleld: Irving, St. Mary's; McAsh,
Belgrave; Smith, Mitchell; Stanbury,
Hayfield; Knechtel, Ripley; Shaw and
Gunn, Clinton. In the absence of the
president, Dr. Woods, Dr. Smith, of
Seaforth, took the chair, and in his
opening address he referred to the
great interest manifested in the asso-
ciation by such a large attendance,
and expressed the sorrow of the meet-
ing at the Loss of such an esteemed
member as the late Dr. Worthington,
and the severance of Dr. Elliott from
the association and his removal to
Chicago.
Dr. Ferguson, of Blyth, gave a clini-
cal history of some cases in his prac-
tic; and a discussion followed. Dr.
McLaughlin read a very interesting
paper on Medical Ethics, which pro-
duced a very animated discussion by
all the members.
The Medical Council was the subject
of much debate afterwards, and reso-
lutions drafted expressive of the views
of this meeting to he presented in Par-
liament by the Local member. Dr.
Elliott then gave his valedictory, after
which he was made an honorary mem-
her. The next meeting will be held in
Seaforth in July.
Seaforth.
Wrio DID IT. -On Friday last the To-
ronto papers contained a dispatch pur-
porting to be from Seaforth, and stat-
ing that fire had destroyed Coleman's
salt block, together with eight other
buildings, and giving minute detailes.
As no fire whatever occurred people
are at a loss to understand the object
of sending the false despatch, and a
detective has been at work trying to
find out the perpetrator of the deed.
'It has been learned that the message
went fro London to Toronto. The
night op ator at London receiving the

was the op rator at Seaforth, but here

GAUDENINO Fon, Pnosus.-4fit this
season of the year the economical man
blisters his hands turning the sod in
his backyard and spends 40' on heeds
and fertilizers, Later the weeds and
the sun knock out his ambition, and
he gathers about 990, worth of "gar-
den sass" for his pains.
Too MUCH LA.TITUDE.-Any night
after dark, boys, and even girls, rang -
(ng from seven to fourteen years of
age, can be found upon our streets.
Who is to blame if they fall into bad
company and bad habits? There is
food here for reflection. Parents
should see that their young children at
anv rate, are indoors before night fall.
BIRTHS, MA.ERIAGES AND DEAT1111-.•
There is a good deal of misapprehen-
sion in regard to the registration of
births, marriages and deaths. Births
must be registered by parents within
30 days, marriages by clergymen with-
in 90 days and deaths by the occupiers
of the house in which they occur with-
in ten days.
SET THE DOG ON BIM. —A chap is
travelling through the country trying
to swindle parties with a contract for
wire fences. He offers to give enough
wire to fence a ten -acre field if the
party will sign a contract to take the
agency for the wire. The contract is
where the swindling comes in. If
read closely it turns out to be a pro-
missory note for 8150 after a few
words are erased with acid.
SQUARE THEM. -An exchange has
the following sensible remarks, which
will apply to Clinton. The quiet state
of trade during the past week has set
many people hustling to get the ne-
cessary money to meet their oblige-
tiods. Thereare many people who owe
accounts to different store keepers
whct are well able to pay, and should
do so, and thus allow the struggling
merchant to pass over the dull season
in happiness. For the next few weeks
very little trade can be expected from
the farming community, so that those
in town who can help our merchants
over the drag should do so. There are
none of them too rich to refuse money.
APRIL SNOW. -The light snow in
April, such as that which fell on Fri-
day night and Saturday is often called
the poor farmer's manure. It is the
carbonic acid gas taken in by snow in
its passage through the air that gives it
par tly its manurial value. Such snow
has probably more fertilizing proper-
ties than have the heaviest falls of snow
in midwinter, because warm weather
liberates more ammonia, which is ab-
sorbed by the large porous flakes. A
warm, summer rain takes more of this
ammonia, because in summer there is
more ammonia in the atmosphere.
The amountof this fertilizer brought to
earth by rains and snows is consider-
ble, but it won't do to depend on it too
exclusively. As a shrewd old farmer
remarked when told that April snow
was the poor man's manure, Ile must
• be a mighty poor -farnnerif he has no
other."

ACCIDENT. -Whilst Mr T. Cameron
was engaged in cutting staves at Mc-
Ewens mill, he had the misfortune to
get three of his fingers taken off. We
are pleased to say that he is doing
nicely.
MEETING. -A meeting of the rate
payers was called last Saturday even-
ing to discuss Sewage question. The
question was slightly discussed a,nd the
trustees asked to make an estimate, -
and to call another meeting as soon as
possible.
NOTES. -We notice that several be-
sides those whom we mentioned last
week are beautifying their places by
new fences, shutters &c.; may the
good work go on. The heavy fall of
snow, the end of last week, was a sur-
prise, and not a pleasant one. Mr H.
J. McNaughton is spending a few days
with Mr J. C. Stoneman, previous to
going to Gananoque, where he has
secured a situation as manager of the
watch and jewellry department in
Messrs W . S. Abbott & Co. establish-
ment. Mac's appearance amongst us
has caused more than one fair count-
enance to light up with a smile, but
look out, ye smilers.
Mr Gladstone told a deputation of the
Imperial Federation League on Thursday
that he was heartily in sympathy with the
movement to consolidate the empire. The
Government, he said, did not question the
notion of the colonies in the matter of their
tariffs and general fiscal policy. They were
free to choose between protection, moderate
or immoderate, and free trade --that Was
their own affair; but he could bold ant no
hope that Groat Britain would dyer aban.

To the Editor of the Clinton New Era..
Sin, -It looks very much like a monopoly
where a man gets a chance and doth not
regard the rights of bis fellow man. As a
sample, some of the mill owners on the
banks of tha Maitland, who will not put in
slides and allow the Bab so ascend the river,
•but will set traps and obstacles in the way
of the fish ascending she river, because
they make money by selling the fish.
Wingham has jut as muoh right to fish as
Goderioh, and I triad the members for this
county will send along the inspeotor; these
selfish men oan well afford to pay a few
fines. I understand that the fish are to be
seen at Egmondville, aa the dam on that
branch is gone, showing that fish will go
up the streams if they get a chance.
