What a poserwas this. for the magis- trate ?--Charlotte could not give baek Thomas his money as she had none, but expressed her willingneSs to marry him, but Thomas would . net do diito with Charlotte, hence, technically Charlotte was free, inasmuch as she was willing to coniplete her contract of marriage. Still the Magistrate ruled that she must refund the money, and as she had not .got it he must sieze her trunk, sending the constable for the same, accordinly ; 'sut when it came it was a trunk only 'the contents not being in it' In this case the next order was that -Charlotte ay oue dollar a nionth till Thomas - is pt id the amount which caused the •action, and Thomas pay the costs of the \court amounting to $4.70. The probelities of Charlotte's monthly payments are not the brightest, at the time of going I to press, so likely Thomas' infatuation will cost him in all about $15. ! P. S. Thomas is, perhaps, on the shady ,side of fifty, and Charlotte on the sunny side of eighteen. • • The members of the Seaferth Pres - 1)3 terian_Sabbath School to the number cifSOIlle two hundred had a plesant pic-* nit in Payne's groVe yesterday.

VERY RIGHT. -The New Era' de- seryes the thanks of 'those int -rested • in either Clinton or Seaforth, • for the very outspoken manner in. which it has come down ou the Gorlerich papers for their misquotations of the naarket prices ranging in those two -villages. The Couniy seat . papers. better try "writing up" their town in Some oilier way than this, if they want it to take. The fact that Clinton and Seaforth al- ways pay more than Goderish for pro- duce, is. too well known by the farmers of this County -for such a disreputasole movement as the one the New Era has callerl in question, to avail them Any - t mg. I • tieRead H. Smith's advertisement. • THE New Era says: Last year Fthe amount rived by the Grand Trank for exports from Clinton station was over $50,000 and $14,000 for imports, •which together with about $10,000 for passenger traffic, makes. a total of re- ceipts for 1868 of 74,000 and this Year the business is expected to exceed. by considerable that of last year, owi.4 to the great amount of produce to. be mov- ed. to market. In order to meet the demand for cars eo move westernpro- duce, the Grand Trunk is setting its• house in order, and no complaint can be made her at present for the, want of accommodation to move the present crop. On Tuesday night we observed forty empty cars lying idle at the sta- tion, and we are told that no room could be spared for additional cars, that the Company were anxious tq send on, ar d all alone the line empty ones were crowded along the sidings. IN many places we hear that the crops are not turning out so well as wcas an- ticiprted. We hear hal, there are cases of fall Wheat not , yielding more than thirtecn bushels, though of course there are othersgoing over thirty. It appears that the rust injured the crop very much. On the the whole however we are *inclined to , believe that Fall • wheat will average oVer twenty bushels in this county. • Pease will be generally an inferior crop. Oats will be very heavy but the last rains kroeked it dowu badly tied it is to he feared that a good deal will rot in -consequence. Spring Wheat is not an average crop taking the midge into acccuu.sts. Barley • is likely • considera,bly over the usual crop Potatoes give strong ind'..cations of rotting, but the yield is heavy. .

Casey a hearing be- fore passing this judgement. -His handling of the subject was truly .mas- terly ;he did not follow the plan of many lecturers by filling his speech with a number of stale jokes but pres- ented it in a new aspect by showing the financial injeries that Intemper- ance was -inflicting on the public. A number of clergyman were present and Mr. Ha,stie being called on tosaya few words, remarked thatit would be a vain attemPt-for him or any person present to tny- to improve the lecture and that the best plan was for all present to think of the facts brought.. before them: by Mr. Casey. • He moved a vote of thanks to thei lecturer second ed by Rev.
