There is no statement of the Liberal
press that has been so strongly, combatted
by their opponents as that relating to the
exodus to the United States. Time after
time, the '111iniaterial press, in the face of
the most potent facets to the contrary,
have declared that no unusual emigration
to the United States has been taking place,
and one of the strongest in arguing thus.
has been the London Free Press. In of -
der to show how they contradict them-
selves, we clip the following front a long
article in its 111enday's edition, which
evidently escaped the eye of the editor :—
" On account of the quality of the soil
in Northern Dakota the attention of Ca-
nadian immigration was drawn in that
direction, and the result is that it is being
settled principally with that class, and
they are as good as ever settled in any
country,"
A NEW 111A11(..
71,Soine time last week the Post Office
Inspector wrote to the postmaster here,
notifying him that a closed bag would be
daily received from the mall clerk on the
L. L. & IL which. was to be forwarded to
Seaforth, by .the first train in the morning,
the people there thus getting their mail
matter a few hours earlier, it not laying
over, as had been the ease previously, un-
til the noon train, Of course, under this
order, there would be no advantage to
People in Clinton, therefore the postmas-
ter here asked the inspecter to allow hint
to make up the mail, instead of the clerk
on the train, which request was acceded
to, thus giving us another mail to Sea -
forth .every day, A mail will also be
despatched front Seaforth. to Clinton by
the night train. Although this involves
more work for Mr. Fair, he was willing
to undertake the same in alb interests or
the people here, who, by his eflbrt, now
have three mails a day eftich way to Lon-
don, lIamilton and Toronto, and two to
Goderich, Seaforth anti Stratford.
Here is a statement which knocks all
LoNngsnono.

WHERS CHARITY IS NEEDED.
To the Editor of the Clinton New Rret.
Dzut Sul, —I would like to ask, when ito
much is being done in tbs cause of charity,
if it would not be an apt of Christian charity
to attend to that destitute, senseless child
named Henry. Last Sumlapevening she was
on the streets, wholly destitute and. unpro-
tected—the prey of any vile -minded one.
She has wandered our etreets, for some time,
as a constant, annoyance, and I, for one
among many, would be glad if our town coun-
cil would take this matter up.
A Cols:saws Resosin.
CLINTON SCHOOL.
To eke Editor of Ore elintou Nett? Zra.
S111,—A letter appeared in the Record, by
an annonymous writer, who has not 'the pour.
ago to sign his own name, charging the mem-
bers of the Cliuton School Board with parti-
ality and unfairness in their conduct towards
the teachers. With this however, I have got
nothing to do, more than to observe that most
certainly trustees are the' best judges of the
amount to be paid to, and the merits of the
respective teachers. But as the writer evi-
dentlfpoints at the engagement of Miss Hattie
1?oxtou, I am compelled, in the interests of
justice, to inform the ratepayers of Clinton,
through your paper, that in this instance the
trustees.have made a wise selection, and se-
cured an efficient teacher, Miss Foxfon has
taught in School Section No, 4, Hullett, for
the7 past four years„ daring which time she
has, by her uniform kindness and. attention,
te• her duties, gained the love of the children
and the respect and esteem. of the parents, se
much so that the trustees felt justified in
giving bor increase of salary each year.
And 1, who have been a trustee in the sect*
for 18 years, do certify -that durinA. that long
term we have not had ao•aneCeSettil a, teacher,
and there is not one person connected with
the school who does not regret that private
matters have caused her to resign, and the
ladies of the section are now (unknown to
Miss Foxton) taking measures to present her
with a handsome testinionial when leaving, ----
I by no moans wish to interfere with Clinton
School matters, but, Sir, I feel that when the
above facts are 'made known through your
'paper, the ratepayers will see that by engag-
ing Miss Foxton, as teacher• in the pu'blio
sehool, the trustees have acted in their best
interests for which they merit their coral,
deuce and future support, . '•
