dinned from M s. Cull he lot on Main
Street on which' Strong & Fairley's store
now Stands. 1 110W tilt 1S out, however,
that although the property- was pur-
chased, the ba,ig in was not finally closed,
and before closii g it Mr. Cull decided not
to sell. The store has 'ow been leased
to Mr. William Allen w to will take pos-
ession when the presen occupants re-
move to their new pre ises. Had Mr.
Laidlaw secured the pro erty, he inten
ed to erect on it a fine buck store, but is
matters now are it is Ji ely the prese
building will remain as i is for sometime.
It is a pity that.a law c uld not be put

SQUARE TIMBER. -We, notice that ad-

for tenders for the conveyance of all the
square timber noW lying along the
Southern. Extension of the Wellington,
Grey and Bruce Railwatt to the Grand
Trunk. This timber his: been awaiting
shipMent all summer, and as it is fast go-
ing to destruction, and the owners see no
prospect oftthe Southern Extension. being
opened, they have resolved to have it re-
moved and shipped by the Grand Trunk,
before it is completely Alined.
THE CROPS. --The gri.n crops in this
vicinity are now mostly fit for haavest._
Fall wheat, Which is now all safely
housed, is a fair crop. Spring wheat will
turn, out well, and barley is fully as good
as last year. There has not been as
heavy a crop of oats for -years as will be
harvested this season. e The straw is •
-long and. thick on the gromid, and the
heads large a,nd, full. Root crops are ;
suffering much for want of rain, but
promise well so far. Upon the whole,
a most satisfactory harvest will this year
be reaped in this vicinity„ and the only
complaint the farmers have is the dry
pastures and the dilatorinees of the

visit to that town, which Will take place
on Thursday, the 20th inst. The follow-
ing rather amusing parti elan respect-
ing the preparations being made we glean
from the Signal of this week: At a meet-
ing of the citizens it was resolved to ask
the town Council for a grAt of $750 to
cover the celebration expe ses ; a recep-
tion committee was appointed, and it was
resolved that Hi a• Excellency should he
met on: his arrival by. the_ ems timPeom-
nate; i the citizens and a guardof honor
and escorted to the Square, where he
would be presented with a adress, and
that after luncheon a recep ion should be
held, a visit paid to the sal Works, and a
ball held in the evening, the tickets to
which ate to be plaeed at each. M.
C. Cameron, M. P., placedhisspacious
house and beautiful grounds at the dis-
posal of 'the citizens, and offered either
-to entertain the Governor there or to
hand the place over to the pitizens and
allow them to do the honors., The Com-
mittee, appointed to make all the neces-
sarry arrangements, had gon actively to
work and accomplished much towards
the end in view, when a 4amper was
thrown eiver proceedings by tie action of
the Town Council, which me on Friday
evening - On their assembling, a protest,
,
covering three pages of foolscap, was
handed in from C. Crabb, thr telling le-
gal proceedings should any money be ap-
propriated for the reception of His Excel-
lency. He further volunteered some sug-
estions at to the manner in which Bee
Excellency should be received and con-
cluded by recommending that 100 should
be granted. Whether the Co ncil were
intimidated by Mr, Crabb's threat or
were sifted with a sudden desire for econ-
omy, they agreed to grant' only the
sum of $300. Iminediately I after the
'Connell adjourned the Geller Commit-
tee met, and feeling that the C uncil had
not done right in granting BO small an
amount, to the wishes of the
citizens as expressed at the pub,lic meet-
ing, a motion that the Committee be dis-
solved was carried, and so - the matter
ended. On Monday, the Council again
met, and seeing the feeling of dissatis-
faction among the 'citizens, increased -the
grant to $500 and invited the Citizen*,
