BUSH FIRE. -F sr•'tTte past foul' or five days things have been pretty lively on Ford block. The latterpart of June Fred Ford was burning off a new piece of land, and when done the fires all went out as he thought, and nothing more was thought of it until last Thursday, when fire began to show it- self, and a breeze arising, began to spread; every thing was so dry it had run some distance before it was seen and checked. Friday inorning hardly a smoke was to be seen, so Fred be- gan to draw in his oats, when about 10 a.m., a south east wind sprang up and as he was coming out for a load was surprised to see the filed ablaze and run- ing towards the barn, and had al- ready run half -way across the meadow next the bush; he and Will Jenkins were not long in getting a few furrows run across in front of the fire and about a dozen neighbors who saw the fire and ran to help, had alivelyfight for about an hour;to keep it from crossing over the furrow. They succeeded in stop- ping itan d it was well there was so many on the spot almost immediately, for had the fire got into the next field, which was only stubble, it would have been next to impossible to stop it and the straw stack and bare would certain- ly have gone, and with the wind blow- ing to the north west as it was, the house and the stubble fields over the road could not not have escaped:in fact there is no telling where it might have gone, it might have taken the whole side of the township and even made it hot for lake Huron. Since then it bas been watched day and night, and has gained ground only in the bush, the rain Tuesday has checked it, but if fire will stay in the ground six weeks as it did before, the place may not be free until winter. The fire has covered be- tween 30 and 40 acres of bush besides the meadow, and also burnt seven or eight rods of patent fence of Fred's, and eight or ten rods for Jack Ford. Varna.

The doctor has been an act- ive member of the Methodist church„ also of several other societies in town, and will be much missed when he takes his departure. The good wishes of his many friends will follow him to his new position. CIVIC HOLIDAY.—Last Friday being. our civic holiday, a few picnic parties betook themselves to the lake side, at Bayfield, while a goodly number took advantage of the cheap railway rates. The lacrosse matches kept a great many at home, consequently a very large crowd of people were present at the recreation grounds, and all wit- nessed the best games of lacrosse ever played in Seaforth, notwithstanding the home teams suffered defeat. Two matches were played : Mitchell vs. Seaforth Juniors, which resulted in 3 goals to 1 in favor of the visitors; Ex- celsiors, of Brampton, vs. Beavers, of this place, which terminated in the Beavers being downed by 4 goals to 2. The latter was a very fine exhibition game of lacrosse. • CHURCH.—A congregational meeting was held in the Presbyterian church, on Monday evening last, for the pur- pose of considering the extending of a call to the Rev. Mr Guthrie, as a per- manent assistant- to the pastor of the church, Rev. A. D. McDonald. It was decided to submit the question to a vote by ballot of the whole congrega- tion. Mr Guthrie has indeed become popular among the people of Seaforth, and all will be glad to retain him as a citizen. He has received a unanimous call to Walkerton, in fact is wanted in other places as well, but if the people of Seaforth decide that he should re- main here, we believe that Mr Guthrie is willing to accede to their wishes. RUNAWAY.—What might have been a fatal runaway accident happened on Main street, on Saturday morning last. Mr Samuel Dickson, jr., his sister, Miss Ida, and a young laly visitor, were driving a team of horses attached to a phaeton, and when near the Royal Hotel the tongue of the rig fell from the neckyoke, which caused the horses to'become unmanageable andrun away. They ran as far as Richardson's corner, when the front wheels of the phaeton were brought in contact with a street crossing, nearthesidewallr,,_•wbere.it.is. high up from the road, giving the peo- ple . is the vehicle.a. very sudden- jerk, so much so that Miss Dickson was thrown out. The horses here broke away and went down the street at no slow rate of speed. Fortunately no damage was done beyond the breaking of the fore part of the phaeton; it was, however,.a•nat•row escape •frons injury to those immediately concerned.

W. telegraph office, Weston, is spending her vacation at the pr rental home here.

The fall woke him up. Accrr. T—Mr. W. J. McBrien, of base lin , narrowly escaped a serious 'accident on Saturday.

"They linger where the pebble-paven shore Under the quiok, faint kisses of the sea Trembles and sparkles as with ecstaoy." It is only a very few years since the first summer tourist made the discov- ery that Bayfield was suitably situated for a resort, and from that day till this the number of visitors has increased at a rate which fairly astonishes those who have watched the progress of our fame. So great have been the strides in popular opinion, that notwithstand- ing the vast improvements which have been made for the accommodation of visitors, much is yet to be done before we can entertain, in. a suitable manner, the ever increasing crowd of resorters. Those who have stopped at the hotels this summer have spoken in the high- est terms of the obliging and courteous treatment they have received, but there are many more who prefer taking a cottage for the summer, and it is these for whom we have yet to provide. Bay- field contains numerous excellent sites for cottages, especially along the bank of the lake and river, where "the whole day long delicious breezes blow," and where broad beach of the lake and the wildly picturesque scenery along the cedar -fringed waters of the river, form such entrancing retreats' for those who are admirers of the beautiful.
