It comes fully up to what we last week promised it would. There 'are moral les- sons to be learned from this exhibition, 'which no parent can afford to allow go by, without giving his children the advantage of. It will be exhib- ited again to -night, when we hope to see another good. tutnout. /&. Wamsley's singing is, alone, - worth double the adinission. As will be seen by advertisement, elsewhere; Mr, Cavanagh has opened out a bakery, confec- tionary, etc., 'm the building formerly occupied as Carmichael's. Hotel. Besides- 'the articles nec- cessarily included in his business, Mr. C., at this season of the year, keeps ice cream, and most de- lightful summer beverages. His enterprise de- serves patronage, and. we are sure that his very tasty shop and good quality of stock, will secure it for him THE Bazaar held by the ladies of the Wesleyan Methodist Church, on Tuesday last, was quite successful. The display of fancy and other arti- cles was, as regards quantity and quality, exceed- ingly creditable, and quite tempting in appear- ance. The attendance of visitors and purchasers during the day ,was very large, the store being thronged from an early till a late hour. We have not learned the amount realized, but presume it must be something handsome. CHURCH OPENING.—The Catholic church Seaforth will be opened for Divine service, Sundey 17th .inst., with imposing ceremonie His Lordship Bishop Walsh will officiate on t occasion, and. will, be assisted by a number of di mgmshed clergymen, amongst whom there Wi be some able speakers.

AMIDE NT.—As Mr. Dougall McColl (2nd con., Hay) was returning home on the oth inst., after a two weeks' absence froni his family, hada very narrow esca.pe of being seriously inj ured, —in fact, he was placed in such a position that he was pro- videntially saved from an untimely end. It seema Mr. McColl was coming home on the Lon- don stage, and got off a mile and a half septh of Rodgerville. and was proceeding along tile side line which passes his own place, when 2e was overtaken by a neighbour, Mr. Richard Caste who asked him into his waggon to ride, and ts Mc. Coll was getting into the waggon, his foot slip- ped, which threw Min inside the front wheel, and ni this wedged position, the horses heppened to advarice a little, the wheel making halt a revolu- tion, which dragged the unfortunate man to the ground. It was some time before he was able to rise to go.home, and on examination, his injury consisted of three broken ribs. He is improving fast, but will not be able to do any work this hamest. . HAYING has been commenced by most of the Ian:Tiers in this vicinity. The rain has damag- ed a considerable quantity of it. THE " TwELFTII."—The "12th" passed off very. quietly here, the lodge in this place having gone to Leecheville. PANORAMA. —The citizens of Ainleyville have been feasting etheir appetites for the Fine Arts, for the last few evenings, by visiting Verey's pa- norama. This is about the best exhibition of the kind we have ever seen. The transparent paintings of the Holy Land, being partioularly fine. Ten Nights in a Bar .Room is also a fine lot of paintings, Better singing than Mr. Walms- 14.'8 we have rarely heard.. His rendering of the "Little Barefoot" being particularly line.

Verey, proprietor of Verey's panorama, half of the profits went to assist in the erection of the new mill in this village. - A reply; to R. McMordie, from the Secretary of the South Huron. Agricultural Society, has been received, and will appear next week. WRO.XETER. • WEATHER.—We are having lots of rain at pres- ent. To -day (Mond -ay) it has rained incessantly, and no prospeets of a change. ZOGRAPHICON.---Verey's Panorama exhibited in ,Gofton's Hall on Thurtclay and Friday evenings, il '-tbe 7th and 8th inst., and fully suetained its re- g putation as one of the- best of iti` kind. Since nt In- ce d - ON Saturday last as Mr. Vnox's omnibu '1 team were standing at the Railway Station plat- form; they became frightened at a passing train, and not being tiaa, started off at full speed'. The only occupant of the carriage at the time was Miss E. Knox, a young girl about 11 or 12 years of age, who, upon seeing the dangerous position in whic4),she- was, reached over the dash board, caught rine lines, 'which had fallen over, and by dint of considerable effort, succeeded in stopping the horses before any- damage was done. Miss Knox's brave conduct, under such trying cir- cumstances, shows her to be possessed of an amomitof coolness and presence of mind, of which but few ladies of more mature years can boast. POTATOES' _PoTATOES ! !— Mr. John Walker, gardener, of Roxburgh, has presented us with a mess of Early Rose potatoes, the largest of the season, some of them,weighing eleven ounces each, M. Soinuel liarris, of this place, has also made ustthe grateful recipient of two fine lots of new potatoes. One of these was a new variety, clesig- natedthe Queen Victoria. Of all the early potatoes upon which it has been our duty to "foreclose," we award in favour of the Queen Victoria. -It is white, dry, and even mealy at this early season. Mr. Harris also informs us that it has proven to be very prolific. Notwithstanding the undeni- able excellencies of the Early Rose. we believe that the Queen Victoria only requires tobeknown to supercede it. We like trying potatoes. SALT MeteareekeTURE.—We are glad to see that our salt deposits are not to remain long undevel- oped. in addition to the well of Drs. Coleman & Gouinrock, whose works are going On vigorous- ly, a compaily has been formed in the village, un- der the title of the Merchants' Salt Company, comprsing some of our best business men, whose names are a guarantee of success, and we under- stand the required amount of stock has already • been subscribed. There has also been some talk of establishing a company to sink a shaft with the view of getting out the salt in bulk. The ex- , peice of such a work woill of course be very great, aud -which, if fuel tinues as 'heap and abundant as it is at pres it is perhaps d.oubt, ful whether the salt could be produced any cheap- er than it. isewith the present system. The time will, no doubt, arrive when shafting will be found more profitable. Base Ball Match. Th&B. B Clubs of Ainleyville and. Seaforth plat -ed a match at Ainl.eyville on Friday last, which resulted in a victory for the Seaforth boys. The game wts well contested as the scoie will show, and every thing passed off well. . The Sea - forth players speak in high terms of the treatment they experienced at the hands of the.Ainleyville players, who, .used them well. The return match will be played on the Seaforth ground, on Friday July 22nd, ''weatherpermitting." SEAFORTH. AINLEyvILLE, RUNS. W. J. Sills, c., 6 J. McMurray, Istb., 6 J. Maloney, p., 4 J. D.

Time of ga.me,—Three hours. Mr. Verey's last visit he has added to his collec- tion a number of scenes on the Mississippi, Ohio, and St. Lawrence river; and also some beautiful oil paintings, making it altogether the best, most interesting and most instructive panorama on exhibition. We must not omit to mention one feature of the exhibition, which has as nerich to do with Mr. Verey's succese as any other part, viz.i Mr. Wamsley's singing. Mr. Wamsley es- tablished hisreputation as a public singer during his previous trip, three or four years ago, and we think all -who have heard him, will agree with us in saying that be sustains it during his present tour. Mr. Verey exhibited his panorama two evenings in Wroxeter, the hall being crowded on both occasions. • ACCEDEls1T. —As a young man, named James Hamilton, was going home from Wroxeter with a waggon and a yoke of oxen, he began- racing with a horse team. which was going in the same direc- tion, when a dallision occurred, Hamilton break- ing his leg, near the ankle. He is under the care of Dr. Sinale. • RED RIVER;—Another letter has been received from Mr. William Small, late of Wroxeter, who with Mr. William Miller, left for the Red River Settlement this spring. They 'attempted to enter the Territory, when they were met by two gigan- tic half-breeds, one of whom utteeed the word ."stop," that apparently being the extent of his knowledge of the language. Another rather good- looking savage, then come up and proceeded to tell them very civily that they could not enter the territory, as he had express orders from Mo- sieur Riel to that effect. They, of course, had to turn beck, and when the letter was written they were staying at Pembina. The writer goes on to say, "Father Riehot has gone down from here, Friday morning, (the letter is dated 19th June) on the boat, and we hear there is to be a meeting to -moi row. to discuss the proposels of the Canadian Government, and 1 suppose if it suits the views of his Reverence we will get in next -week," The writer says that their company was.. reinforced on Friday night by the arrival of Mr. Robert Woods, of Wroxeter, and two more Cana- naelians, one from Howick and the other from Collingwood. GRAND ORANGE CELEBRATION. The one -hundred -and -eightieth anniversary of the Battle of the Boyne, was celebrated by the Loyal Orangemen of South Huron, in Seaforth, on Tuesday last. The day previous had been one of continual rain, and the morning of the "twelfth" pronaised little better for. that day. By 10 o'clock, however, the ram subsided; still the roads were necessarily, in a very muddy state, which reduced the attendance from what it otherwise would, in all probabillty, have been very consideiably. As it was, some thirteen lodges were represented, which, together with their friends'made our visitors number at least, one thousand. THE PROCESSION. • On account of the muddy state of the streets, part of the programme providing for a general march through the street; had to be dispensed with ; but about 2 o'clock they mustered at the Odd -Fellows' Hall, formed into procession. and marched to .the market square, each lodge being preceded by the veritable drum . and fife, and headed with its respective banner. The assem- blage was then called to order for THE sPEEmEs. _COUNTY MASTER ,CONNOR, opened by saying that he must apologize for the comparative limit- ed attendance of the Brethren, through the un - unfavorable state of the weather. Still it afford- ed. him pleasure to see present so many Orange- men and other Protestants, whom he knew were., so willing and able to defend and support the rel ligious libetty seeured by William III. To -de- fend the country from the encroachments of the Papacy was the prime object of Orangism, and he believed there was no time since its inception, whenthere was greater need in this direction. Orangism was founded in difficulty, and they had therefore .greater reason for rejoicing to -day, see- ing that now they -were guaranteed the right of demonstration and utterance. Orangism, as everybody knew, dated back to 1690; from that time to the Battle of the Diamond, however,- 1795—it did not prosper, but from then forward up to the present, its success was continually on the increase. The greatest stimulus for °rang - ism was opposition. Such occurrences as the re- cent Fenian Raid, were what would make it thrifty. On these occasions, Orangemen were the first t� he on the field of action, and the lest off it. He believed that, ultimately, every , well of the Protestant faith woad be found in its ranks. . All Orangemen would support the British ceown with their last drop of life -blood, so long as a -;?rotestant monarch sat on the throne. It afforded him pleasure to believe that there was - At, no member of their order that would ever consent to a severance of Britain land her Colonies.

Some of the most contracted feet, in point of width, are particularly free from all risky -disease, and on the other hand, many open ones are as liable to it. The donkey, whose feet are shaped exactly like the contracted horse's heels, is so seldom lame that but few can recall having seen one in that 'd ondition, and, therefore, reas- oning from analogy, one would be led to doubt that this shape of foot renders the horse prone to lameness, At the same time it is quite true that in nayicular disease, .and in inflamations of the feet, the frog withers and contracts, ancl the heels are thereby -drawn together, and here the contrac- tion is a consequence -and not a cause of disease, and certainly cannot be considered as a disease in in itself. Bad shoeing will do nraph to produce inflamation of the feet, from patting the entire weight on the crust; it will also help to bring on navicular disease, and it will produce infested. heels and corns, but cannot waste the frog nor induce that condition of the foot where the sole is arched so high that the frog does not touch the ground when the shoe is off. Such a state of things cau only be brought about by internal dis- ease, and is never the result of mechanical mis- management of the foot, to which what used to be called contraction was generally attributed. All sorts of plans have been suggested for expand- ing the heels, an.d for allowing them to expand, but the real truth is, that so long as the frog is sound and the parts above it allowed the proper amount of pressure to be conununicated to the sole bars and heels of the crust, these litter divis- ions of the foot have no room to contract, and for a certainty they never do.—D. McN. Goderich Council. • The Council met this clay according to appoint- ment. Present, the Reeve, Depy. Reeve and Councillors, Ford and Weston.
