Tien VALUE OF' VILLAGE LOTS IN SEA.-
FORTIL—A-few days ago a vacant, build-
ing lot, situatecl on -a back street, was sold
for the handsome sum of $350. This
does not look as if the people of our go- '

railway rumors which are floating about.

SUNDAY SCHOOL Pro-Nwe —The an-
nual pimnic of the Preebyterian Sunday
School was held on Monday last, in Mr.
James Beattie's grove: About 150 child-
ren, with their teachers and a number of
parents andfriends, were present. Every-
thing passed -off pleasantly, and all pres-
ent enjoyed. the occasion heartily.
EXAMINATION OF TFACHERS.—The ex-
amination of teachers before the County
Board commenced at Goderich, on Tiles -
day morning last. The examination will
probably terminate to -night, but it will
be some days before the papers can be
examined and certificates issued, so that
teachers will have to bear suspense for a
time ere they learn their fates. About
90 candidates presented themselves for
examination. On Monday quite a num-
ber from this vicinity left by the after-.
noon train.
• INCREASED TELEGRAPH FACILITIES. -,—
The Montreal Telegraph Company have
just ncompleted stringing an _additional
wire from Sarnia via London and Strat-
ford to Goderich, bringing all intermedi-
ate offices into direct aminection, olijiat
ing a great deal of repeating at Toronto
and Stratford. This will relieve the
main line from Goderich via Hamilton
to Toronto of a large amount of local and
western business, and materially increase
their facilities for doing business prompt-
ly in all directions. New offices have,
been opened, at Zurich, Gerrie-, Aed
Farm Point. The latter place'sitilated
a few miles from Goderich, bids, fair
under Mr. Wright's management to be-
come one of the most attractive slimmer'
resorts in the Dominion.
THE CROPS.—The hay crop in this lo-
cality ie now nearly all gathered in, and
is considered to be -a fair average crop._
The yield is not so good as was at one
time anticipated, but it has been saved.
in splendid condition. Some farmers
have already commenced to cut their
barley, and we hear of others who intend
conmaencing fall wheat harvest in the
early part of next week. Barley is a good
crop, and fall wheat picked up wonder-
', fully since the spring, and taken general-
ly will be an as yield. The early
sown oats and peas are good.; but what
was later sown and did not h -ave a good
,start before the dry season came on will
be very short, and of rather inferior
quality. Potatoes seem to be a good
crop and, notwithstanding the prevalence
of the bug, which las been bravely
fought by our farmers, a good yield may
be expected. Turnips, however, are a
failure. Many farmers who have sown a
considerable width will not have suffici-
ent to feed one -cow dining the winter.
On account of the failure of turnips,
and the probability Of straw beim., very
short in many quarters, we do notPdoubt
but before next spring there will not be
much fodder to dispose cif. Spring wheat
is a good crop and will yield well°
•A FAITHFUL PUBLIC SERVANT. ---We
notice by the minutes of the 'last regular
meetiog of the Hay Township Council,
that Mr. William Wilson resigned his of-
fice as Clerk of that municipality. Mr.
• Wilson has filled_ this position with etedit
• to himselt and profit to the municipality
for the long period of fourteen years and
• a half. He is, we believe, entitled to
claira the distinction of being the third
oldest township Clerk in the Province.
The cause of Mr. Wilson's resignation,--:
family afflictions, —will bring him the
heartfelt sympathy of every person who
-enjoys the pleasure of his acquaintance.
Within a very short period of time, we
• -think a little over a year, Mt. Wilson
las lost, by death, two sons and one
eclaughter. This :sad affliction hts so
*borne npon and depressed him, that he
felt it would be too great a strain upon
him to longer continue his public duties:

died iron t the effects df poison. The
cows had , teen running on the Common,
and on the morning in question returned
as usual te their owner's gate to be milk-
ed. After milking them, Mr. Brewer
gave each a pailful of water. The

to allowthem to ea.ss int, the yard One •
of the cows fell • dead heforg she got

shortly afterward. A poet -mortem ex-
• amination of one of the animals was
made by Ma D. M, liVaught, veterinary-
• surgeon, who found unmistakable evi-
dence of poison in the. itornach. Whether
the cows had • eaten of • some poisonorte
weed, or whether the mison had been
given by some design jog villains, is yet a
mystery. A circumstan ce 'against the
former supposition is that the poisoned an-
imals were constantly in c ompany with
others, and it is almost inwossible that
they could be poisoned accid entally and
the other animals, feeding with them es-
,cspe. uninjured. The sympathy of the
public, gen rally, is with Mr. Brewer, in
this, to hirr, semous loss, and it is to be
hoped that, if he sustained it through de-
sign, the p rpetrators may be discovered
and suitably punished.

Whiteley's bay mare " Limping-Gitus."
The .race was for 'a private bet, mile

won by the mare, with considerable time
to spare. • in the second heat "Miller"
took the lea.t1., and kept his place for the
entire heat, taid pa,ssed- the winning post
amidst the Oheers of his admirers. _ The
third heat, fr the first round. was very
evenly con tea, and excitement ran
higleer, as t ere was supposed to be con-
siderable mo ey at stake, but during the
last round o the course the mare broke,
and ran a j good distance round the
course, los.ing time dreadfully, and allow-
ing the hors to come in considerably
ahead In tie fourth heat, the mare had
a new drive , but aithough she did a
little bettet, it wee of no avail,
"Miller" kept his own, came in first,

CRICKET-- ODERICH VS. SEAFORTH. —
On Saturday ast a match was played be-
• tween the_Se forth and Goderich cricket
clubs -on the 4rounds of the latter. The
game wa,s by o means evenly Contested,
as the Seaforth players were entirely too
heavy a team tfor their Goderich antagon-
ists. Encouraged by the unmerciful
trouncing which they administeredto
the cricketers Of the county to em, we' be -
that the Seaforth boys have challenged
the Stratford club, and it is expected
that a match vi11 shortly come off be-
tween these t o clubs. At the conclu-
eion of the in h, the Goderich club en-
tertained them Seaforth friends to a
supper at the British Exchange where
efter doiug justice to an excellent spread,
a number of , toasts were proposed and
eesponded to.,i •The chair was filled be

The congregation of the 1Juited Pres-

which worships regularly every Sabbath
in their church. at Walton, taking into
consideration their strength and numbers,
• agreed to take up a subscription from the
members of the church, so as to present
Mr. McAlister, who has for some time
conducted the psalmody of the congre-
gation with punctuality and efficiency,
with some tangible recognition of his ser-
vices. As a result of the efforts of the
congregation, or rather of the ladiee of
the congregation, for it was through their
instrumentality that the congregation's
decision was carried into effect, the sum
of 822 was, realized. This amount was
putin the bands of Mr. James Douglas,
Sr., who, one day last week, on behalf
of the subseribers, went to Mr. McAlis-
ter, and in An able and masterly speech
made to him the presentation of the

themselves by trying running, standing
and high j rune e. Considerable amuse-

celebration at Ba -led.
On Friday of last week, thte an iver-
;ri
sary ot the Battle of the Boyne, a um-
ber of the Orangemen belonging t the
South Riding of Huron district assembl-
ed at Baytleld. Although the day; was
intensely hot, and the clouds of !dust
raised by the vehicles anything but
agreeable, the, pleasently located "village
on the beach' was thronged from early
morn till late in the evening, tkith an
eager crowid of pleasure seekers of both
sexes, and, the music of the fifes and
drums resoanded loudly in the adjoining
woods and over the placid waters of
noble old Lake Huron. The mineipal
streets were handsomely decorated with.
arches of evergreens, red blue 'and
orange banners, flags and mottoes. 1
'At about one o'clock, the various lodges
present fell into line and headed by their
respective bands and banners, marched
to a grove iii the eastern, part of the 'vil-
lage, when all formed in procession, and
led by the County Master and conduct-
or s on horseback, raarched through the
principal streets, followed closely by a
large crowd of the initiated. Theprocession
eras, probably, over a quarter of a mile
in length, and comprised the lodges
known ,by the following numbers: 24,
145, 153, 182, 189, 306, 308,

sion, after passing through the village,
marched to the grove from which it
started, after which a suitable place was
selected, and the brethren and visitors
gathered around the platform . to listen
to the ADDREssts.
,
W. W. Connors, County Master, first
amended the platform, and before in-
troducing thm speakers made, a few ap-
Eropriate remarks. He said he was
appy to have the pleasure of giving a
hearty welcome to Bayfield,—the best
place in the County,—to the brethren
and visitors Assembled here to -day. He
was also glad to observe in the ranks of
the procession so many brother Orange-
men, and was pleased and giatified. at
the orderly and harmonious manner in
which the celebration had thus far been
conducted, and he trusted and felic.on-
fident that the same harmony would be
maintained to the end. It was now some
thirty years ago since Orangeism first
showed itself in Bayfield, and he was
proud to say that there were still a
chosen few NiTh0 remain true to their
colors. He lOoked forward with pleas-
,
ure from year to year to these celebra-
tions, and he was proud of the privilege
' afforded of mingling with his brethren
!on this day, and every true Orangemen
!should feel that it was a proud privilege
Ito join in the celebration of an anniver-
sary such as that they were met here t
I celebrate to -day. It was a privilege the
:had and it was a privilege they shard I
enjoy. Every' Orangemen should coin
out on the twelfth of July, and show to
the world that he is not a nook and
corner Orangernan.—that he is not
b.shamed of, the glorious profession he
as made. - He was pleased to perceive
that their proceedings had the approval
and presence of so many ladies to-day,1
s he considered that the ladies were M'
teality the back -bone of Oringeism, aud!
he hoped they would continue to encouid
age their husbands and their brothers t
hezealous workers in the great causefo
he promotion
. promotion and maintenance of which
the organization was establiihed andl
maintained. He assured his brethren'
that if they never did. anything to dis-I
grace Orangeisee, it would never disgrace
them. He urged them to be true
to their principles, and true to the teach-
ings of the society to which they lmlong-
ed,—to remember their children at home,
and remember that a pattern and. exam-
ple be set for them, which they may safe-
ly follow hereafter, when those who take
part in the present proceedings are gone,
--an example which, if followed by, those
children, will be beneficial to themselves,
and a credit to the memory of those who
have gone before. The speaker then
alluded to that old Protestant friend
(, s he termed Brother Johnston of Bel-
a st), .who •was now on a visit to, his
b •ethren of this eountry, and who has so
b avely and so manfully fought the bat-
tl s of Protestantism in the British
P rliament, and concluded by saying
tliat, if leaders of the Order in this
country would but stand up and do bat-
tlt for our interests as Brother Johnston
hed done, we could at least make our
en,einies respect us, if we could not make
them fear us.
Rev. Mr. Rennie, of Goderich, was the

neat s ealler. He was glad to congratu-
late th se present upon their apparent
zeal in the cause, as exhibited by the
large numbers Of Orangemen present.
was happy to. say thatthe could. fully
freely sympathize with them, as he
a an Oraugeman himself, mid had
cliinbed up the -various steps of the lad-
der as high as the Scarlet. Being thus
acquainted with the objects and working
of Oe organizatiore he could speak from
personal knowledge of its beneficial and
exalting teachings. He could assure
them that Orangeism was a system of
love and purity. It is a system whieh
is founded upon the Bible, and which can
neter give way or be forgotten. •The
elements -may givo way, but the word of
God will never give way. Although he
was an Orangeman, he denied -that he
was either narrow or cottracted in his
views. •Although he did not believe in
the teachings of the Church of Rome,
yet it would _be contrary to his belief to
say that among the Roman Catholic bocly
there were not good Christiaaas. His
Bible taught him that Christians of all
denominations wouldbe saved; ---that on
the last day they would come from the
North, South, East and West. Some
said that Orangemen ought not to mem-
orialize. the 12th of July, as their doing so
was the cause of creatiug strife and ill '
feeling among Christian denominations.
He be-liened, however, that they should
memorialize his clay. Ere believed the
day would never come when these Colors
whicli he saw floating before him would
be forgotten,—they will be handed down
from generation ' to generation till
Gabriel's here shall blow. • Does not a
wife go and sit -and shed tears of grief on
the grave of her lost husband., and none
seeks to interfere with or molest her? Is
it to provoke her neighbors that she does
this? No, . but in reverence to the
memory of her lost husband. Neither do
Orangemen celebrate the 12t11 of July to
provoke their opponents, but to com-
memorate the beloved memory of Wil-
liam Prince of Orange, who fought so
bravely in behalf of those principles which
, were so dear to -their breasts, and who

gave his life a sacrifice in defence of those

when William fought so braveltr at the
Boyner? No, we cannot forget these
things and allo-w them to be broken under
our feet, consequently we commemerate

breasts of those who think and feel dif-
ferently from what we do, but in honor
of him whose memory is so dear: to us.
At the same time that we do this, we
must feel that we owe all the privileges
which we now enjoy to God. King Wil-
liam looked at it in this light when he
made use of these noble and_ ever memor-
able words : I will be a King to -day;
God will be a King to -morrow; and I
will be a general underllim."

After a few remarks from Mr. Robert
Gordon, of Goderich, County Director',
and the passage Of votes of thanks to the
speakers and others, the proceedines ter-
minated by giving three cheers i'or the
Queen, and three for the County Master.
The proceedings throtighout the day
were conducted in a most orderly man-
ner, and beforesundown all the lodges
had dispersed to their respective homes.
During the entire day we did not notice
a single individual intoxicated, which
was certainly a pleasing and commend-
able featare, especially in so large an as-
semblage.
The Celebration at Myth.
On Friday a large assemblage of the
Orangemen of the North Riding of
Huron, took place at Blyth. Fifteen
lodges were represented. The 'number
of spectators present was also very large.
--indeed so large a crowd of people was
never before in the village at one time,
-The streets were beautifully decorated
with arches of evergreens, and other
ornaments. Flags were • flying from
many of the business places and private
houses. A grand procession took place
in which the various lodges present took
part, after which suitable and able ad-
dresses were delivered. The proceedings
throughout were most orderly and pleas-
ant and creditable to theee svho took
part in them.

bents, and in the ;extremely short time
of 30 minutes the feet of all th.e posts.

and the rafters on, all in the bet style,
and the captains arrived on tena firma
almost at the, same moraent, 17/4 a,
sound of an iron instrument was heard
dirting the erection of the buildin

To the Editor of the 11147'071 Expoaiton
DEAR SIR, —Through -the EXPOSITOR
-wish to draw the attention of the Town-
ship Council to a public nuisance on the
North Road, near the village of Seaforth,
namely, Mr. W. Scott Robertson's
piggery. I am informed that the Town-
ship Council are a board of health, or if
not, it is their duty to appoint one to in-
spect all such places, and if they find
them a public nuisance it is their duty to
have them removed. The travelling pub-
lic complain most grievously of it, and if
their voice is allowable; they pronounce
it a public rinisatice. I ant info/Tiled by
•a medical doctor that if the said piggezy
is not speedily removed it will cause a
pestilence in that locality. It is evident
to all that we have a sufficiency of dis-
eases which wee are heir to, some of whieh, -
PO doubt, we\\ are the cause ourselves,
without having an additional one intro-
, duced. We have . a demonstration of
Inlet this piggery as a nuisance. It; not only
ie affects man, but the beasts which run at -
e"' large and drink of the whey that escapes
frona the piggery and run on to the road
side, are poisoned and die, and their dead
1')•
' e bodies are now lying in a Sate of putre-
action and are making an additiolal
nuieance. I consider it an insult to the
tra.velling community, as well as to these
living in the immediate -vicinity, who
have to snuff the horrible stench both
ay and night. Hoping that the re-
sponsible parties will attend to the mat-
ter immediately. I remain, yours, &c.,
A RATEPAYER.
-McKillop, July 15,1872. -
—A workman named. Ewing, employed
at one of the drilling machines at the
Ontario Car Works, London, very nar-
rowly escaped a horrible death on Friday.
While attending to his duties his sleeve
became entangled in some portion of the
machinery, and he was being steadily
drawn into the jaws of death when a fel-
low -workman who saw his perilous posi-
tion; bad the presence of mind to throw
0ir the belt and stop the machine. = Ew-
ing sustains a bad cut on the arm, and.
several acratches and. bruises.
—Mr. John Carling has resigned his
seat in the Local Legislature. At a meet-
ing of his friends in London, on- Monday
evening last. he was unanimously nomin-
ated as the _Ministerial candidate for the
Dominion Pemba:emit. Ile will probably
be elected without opposition. Who his
successor in the Local will be has not yet
been made public.
— Mr. Elliott, a saloon keeper in To -
relit°, took a bottle of soda water in his
hand last Saturday mornmg, for the pur-
pose of "opening it, when it burst, scat-
tering the fragments in every direction.
one of the pieces struck- him in the left
nostril, cutting it very severely, another
piece struck him on the right hand be-
tween the thumb and first finger, inflict-
ing a dangerous wound.
— A small boy, nine years of age, was
convicted of larceny in Brantforda few
days ago, and was sentenced to five years-
imprisonnaent in the Reformatory at-
Penetanguishine, where he has been con-
veyed.
— A young Englishman, on Monday
afternoon last, swam from the foot of
