Says the Goderich Signal :— The criminal statistics of the county of Huron for the past few montbs(if collection of ciphers can be said to con- stitute "statistics") may well be made the subject of a newspaper paragraph. Since the 7th of September last, that is, during it period of uearly six months there has not been it single person charged with crime within the bonnds of this large coanty. There are a few inmates in the count:, Ratan but they are all, without exception, confined either for insanity or for vagrancy. These facts indicate a condition which is probably without precedent in the history of the county, and are a coin- tnetiterv upon the gradual bet sore ion proVeinent in the inerals of the people, 11 svould perhaps not be too much to say that we have in Huron county ono of the most orderly stud peaceable cotn. munities itt the world.
