House RIDING A Wwwl?:I.,-Mr Dave Crawford is the owner of a clever horse. On Monday evening while in the village here it mounted the wheel of a buggy, but as there were no pad- dies for its feet it could not ride well, and the buggy was turned over in or- der to get it off the wheel. There was not much damage done to either the horse or buggy. PREACHING. -Mr Thos. Nott preach- ed on the street corner on Sunday ev- ening after the church services. Some people think his preaching would take better if he did not find so much fault with the other denominations. He should spend his strength calling sin- ners to repentance. Go out into the lanes and bye -ways and invite there to come in, and let those who believe they are serving the Lord alone. NOTES. -The election passed off very quietly here on Tuesday; there was a very small vote polled, Mr McMillan did not get quite his usual majority. Miss Jennie McKenzie is, we regret to say, laid up, and requires the services of a doctor and nurse; Mrs A. Good- win, of Clinton, is attending her. On Thursday a goodly number obeyed the order of the Mayor and observed the holiday going to Bayfield, and many more went in the spirit only, as the body could not get. Your readers will please not forget to come to this place on the 1st to the picnic and also the festival. There are not many weeping over the fall of the Tupper party; how are the mighty fallen; there are some noble men amongst the slain. From another correspondent NOTES. -The Good Template wish to announce to all absent members that they have started a contest which promises to be a success; come one, come all and take part in it. Miss A. Crisp has been on the sick list since attending the Grand Lodge at Toronto. PRESENTATION. -Rev, Mr Millson has taken a very active part in looking after the spiritual welfare of the young men connected with the Londesboro church, and the young men showed their appreciation of his labors on Sat- urday evening by presenting him with a beautiful gold watch and chain, the watch bearing a suitable inscription, and accompanied by the following ad- dress:-"'" Rev. W. E. P. MILLSON.-DEAR BRO. IN CIIRrsT.—AB you are so shortly to remove to a new field of labor for the Master, we as mem- bers of the Young Men's Mutual we, Association of Londesboro, feel that we cannot allow yon to depart from amongst ue without in some tangible way expressing our apprecia- tion of your labors on this appointment, and for the friendly interest shown by you on our behalf, and we would ask you to accept the accompanying watch and chain, not so much for its intrinsic value, but as a slight token of the love and esteem in which you are held by us, and as we have, during the short term of your stay amongst us, ever found iq you a kind, faithful adviser, devoted not onlyto our interests, but to the interests of the church of your choice. Wo trust and pray that although we must part that God's blessing may ever rest upon you, and that His presence with you each day may cause your pathway to grow brighter and brighter, until when called by our heaven- ly Father it will end in the perfect day of His favor, and that our friendship began in time will continue throughout eternity is the de- sire of us all. Signed in behalf of the Y. M M. P. A. JAB WOODMAN, Chairman of Committee; Trios. MILLER, Vice Pres. of Society; GEO. E. WILLIAMS, Secretary. Mr Millson was completely taken by surprise, but expressed his hearty thanks for the gift. What he had done was simply to promote the spirit- ual welfare of the young men, and if he had succeeded in so doing, he felt amply repaid therefor. was all that could be desired. The lad- ies done their part in their usual good nat.nred way. The program consisted of songs; recitations, and instrumental music. One solo, worthy of mention as an old and pathetic one, Over the Hills to the Poor House, rendered by Mr E.O. Potter, was much appreciated. •The chairman, though evidently feel- ing a little out of place, cracked the joke with the young people, that the longest way round was the sweetest way home. Proceeds amounted to about $23. NOTES.- On Friday evening,June 19, Zion Sunday school held their picnic in Mr D. Cox's grove. Elections over, work has commenced again.

There was a threshing machine in the barn, belonging to Isaac Brownlee, a new binder, and other implements, etc , all of which were destroyed.

Nores,-A number of�young people frohere attended the Harlot* picnic, and report having had a good time. The jubilee, held under the ems - pious of the Ladies' ,Aid of this place, we are sorry to say, was poorly at- tended, owing, no doubt, to so many other like gatherings that are being held at this time; an excellent supply of good things was provided by the ladies none of which, we are pleased to say,went to waste; as the words of our Saviour, when he said "The poor ye have always with you," are as true to- day as when uttered, eighteen hundred years ago; Rev Mr Bond, of Seaforth gave a very profitable address, as did also Rev Mr Fair, our esteemed pastor, and those who failed to attend missed a pleasant time. Mies Mary McCully and sister have been visiting friends in Blanshard this week.

Concern- ing his departure from London the Free Press says :-"That Rev Walter Rigsby is popular with the congrega- tion of Colborne street Methodist church -and deservedly so -was amply attested by the large gathering which packed the capacious lecture room last evening, to bid farewell to their retir- ing pastor. Rev Mr Rigsoy has labored successfully and well at Colborne street for two years past, and during that period has endeared himself to all those who have the welfare' of the church at heart. Addresses, highly eulogi=tic cf T'.sv Mr Rigsby, were de- livered by Revs E. B. Lancely and B. Clement and Mr Wm. Bowman, But the most interesting feature of the evening came when Dr Swan stepped forward, and, on behalf of the congre- gation, read an address and presented him with a purse of $50. Miss Maud Rigsby, who has been indefatigable in Sunday school and other departments of church work, was presented with a magnificent bouquet by the young la- dies of the congregation, and Master Ted Rigsby received a picture of his Sunday school class at the hands of his dlasemates.
