All our tere miuieters are assisting us, and the pros.; ere- pects are cheering. The Germans are lee-, going to support us, and also the Roman ity, Catholics, ) be The report of Committee appointed to saes levy on the different . municipalities, the making a total amount of $520, was re- -ote ceived and adapted, with the underuld standing that each vice-president will do for- hie best to raise the amount mentioned, and more, if possible. The Chairman Lust asked the vice- presidents to organize at be once, ftald get the money asked, as it !s if would be required very soon. Let there add he no delay, and also see that ° those kid- petitions are at once proceeded, with, in fact, let us all work—every man, Woman Z it and child, for all have.a duty to perform, am- ancl let us go on in the fear of God, with much prayer, relying for our success in the God of Heaven.

Let an tar* out of an - the felt love the by t: of t s then, do all we can. He thanked the audienee for his position as President of rom the Association, and called. on the ladies ing to work as they did in Larabton, where ms- the ladies were thanked for the chief part of the work. Not less than ten counties have taken steps to vote on the bill. Let us not be behind, but press on to victory. Mr. James Somerville suggested that a delegate be sent to the Prohibitory League for aid, and. he felt sue they would lend us a helping hand. Jas. Thompson moved, seconded, by G. G. Efohnes, that this Convention fully recognize the influence of the ladies of our emanty, inclwould most respectfully urge our mothers and sisters to extend a helping hand in this cause and ask them to form organizationsernongst themselves. —Carried.

Yours diabolically, BEELZEBUB. Huron Notes. A squirrel hunt between Manchester And Donnybrook sportsmen came off at Donnybrook on Thursday of last week. —.Messrs. Petty, of Henson, have .erected a large weigh scales for the benefit of the growing village and neighborhood. —Mr. F. Wineberg, of the Second Con- cession, East Wawanosh, has sold his farm of 50 actes to Mi. John Armstrong for $1,900 cash. —The barn belonging to Mr. J. Tuck- er, Lot 1, Con. 5, Morris, caught .fire on Saturday, Oct. 21st, and was totally de- stroyed with its entire contents. Loss, $1,000 ; insurance, $250. ' —The porkpacking establishment being erected by the Messrs. Petty at Hensall is nearly completed. The enterpriee speaks well for the perseverance and business tact of the energetic proprietors. —A suit of clothes, boots, &c., were found by some boys, last week, above Vanstone's mill dam, Brussels. So far, no owner has made his appearance, and foul play is suspected. —The Port Albert mills have been sold to Mr. W. Mahaffy, of Granton, for $5,985, being something over $500 less than they were sold for at auction a few weeks ago. —On Saturday, Oct. 21st, as Mrs. .Church, of Colborne, was driving out of one of her fields, some colts belonging to Mr. Harris, one of them a very valuable animal, was killed by dashing against a: hemlock limb. —Mr. Walter Smith, Jr. formerly of Brussels, has purchased the blacksmith stand and business recently carried on by Mr. Thomas Campbell, of Fordwich, arid will prosecute the trade in all its branches. —William Sparks, of Bayfield, was drowned in Lake Huron on Oct. 14th. He felleinto the water when endeavoring to step from a small boat into the schoon- er, Nemises. A heavy sea running at the time made it impossible to rescue him. —W. Cooper alias W. Middleton was •examined before J. McGarva and A. S. Fisher, Justices of the Peace, Clintimeon the change of stealing a horse from Aaron Earnest, London road. and after hearing • considerable evidence, he was committed to Goderich to stand his trial. - —During last week the Harbor Mills shipped 24 carloads of flour, 6 caneof bran and. 2 cars of feed. They received -during the week 5,000 bushels of wheat from Bayfield, and 4,000 bushels were -bought on the market. —The only .child of Mr. W. Grigg, jr., Exeter, was nearly drowned last week. It appears that the child was playing near a tub of water, and fell in. Before its mother reached and took it from its perilous position, life was nearly extinct. —Mr. Wm. Young, of Colborne, has given $10 to be competed. for by school -children in a spelling match, to be held in the Colborne township hall at 2 o'clock non Saturday, Dec. 23rd. There will be three prizes of $5, $3 and. $2 respectively and the words will be given from the common spelling book. L—Rev. Mr. Ryan, of the Episcopal Church, Exeter, has succeeded in secur- ing sufficient funds to warrant him in pro- ceeding with the erection of A fine church immediately. The building, which is to be 30x40 feet and will cost $900, will be paid for on oonipletion. —Mr. T. J. Moorehouse, of Goderich, recently purchased from Buntin, Gillies 4 -Cc., Hamilton'a car load of wrapping paper. This lot consisted of 12 tons or 1,800 reams and is the largest purchase ever made in !Western Ontario, and is certainly creditable to the enterprising spirit of Mr. Moorehouse. - all this hu- to happen, within three months. —A young man, residing in a certain township in the County. of Huron, fell in love with a young lady, and as a pledge of his affections, presented her with a ring. It irks an appropriate gift, as the sequel proved. It represented- his love for her, it had no end; it represented her love for him, it had no beginning. In the course of time her affection waned, and as he re- sided in her father's house she had a favorable opportunity of returning the ring He sleeps in an upper &amber, he re- tired one night without a light; on awak- ening in the morning he found .the ring suspended from the ceiling; the truth dawned upon his mind and attendant circumstances confirmed the alienation of her heart from him. He smashed that ring and is now open for proposals. —The Brussels Post says: "On Mon- -day evening last week, David.son Adams and his wife arrived from Seaforth, and put up at Laird's temperance hotel. About o'clock in the evening Mrs. Adams had occasion to go down street, but had no 'sooner left the hotel when she was seized by some per -sons at present unknown, and •draitged into the stable of the hotel, and ravished by two men. She finally escap- ed to the hotel and informed her husband, who at once had Wm. Fitzpatrick ar- rested on a warrant, and Win. Taylor on suspicion. The case'twas tried before Messrs. Harris and Armstrong, but as the woman could not identify the accused owing to the darkness at the time cif the perpetration of the outrage it was dis- missed. Manitoba Notes: [FROM THE FREE PRESS.] Lieut. -Governor Laird and party arn rived at Winnipeg on the 25th October and proceeded immediately to Fort Pelly. • —The appointment of Mr. 4il1s as Minister of the Interior is s most popular one here. The press and the public cor- dially endorse it. It is announced that the next allot- ment (5f the 1,400,000 acres of land to the half-breeds will commence on the 30th inst., and proceed with all due dilligence. Each claimant gets 240 in- stead of 190 acres. —The fall exhibition of the West Marquette Agricultural Society was held at Portage la Prairie, on Thursday 12th October. The show was held on Mr. C. Mair's premises, about half -way between the east and west ends. It was shortly before noon ere exhibits were in, place, and ready for the judges' inspec- tion. • There was not a very large attendance, and tie entries numbered 246. —It is stated that the large boat con- taining the provisions for Mr. McPhillips' surveying party now working north of Gimli was blown out in the lake during a recent storm, and after considerable difficulty was found, but while the ves- sel was being brought to shore it had to be abandoned, owing to the violence of the storm. It was afterwards found a few miles north of where the party were camped, with the provisions water- , soaked. —From Mr. Doupe we learn that Mr. Beatty, D.L.S., is making -good progress with the Colonization Road to the Ice- landic settlement. From Gimli south- wards across Willow Creek 'ever five mile have been already -.completed and over fifteen miles surveyed and located. The- roacl is cut out twenty feet wide, and ten or twelve feet of clear level track made; and, considering the difficult country through which the first few miles passed, is admirably selected and the work very well done. —The South Hastings Teachers' As- sociation, at its last meeting, adopted a series of resolutions in favor of the es- tablishment of an institute in each in- spectoral district, with facilities for do- ing the work of a model or training school, and asking that all candidates for certificates be required to furnish proof of at least six months' con- tinuous attendance at either a Normal School, or one of these district trainieg schools. • —A remarkable thunder storm passed over Wingham and surrounding country last Friday night. It was very calm at the time, there being no wind or rain, only a heavy fall of soft snow, which fell to the depth of three or four inches and loaded the telegraph wires so that they broke in four or five places in a distance •-of six miles. —Mr. Geo. II. Moffatt,of Morrisbank, recently brought home a young Durham bull (Young Lord Strathallan the Second) and a yearling heifer, both taken from the herd of Mr. Wm. Whitelaw, a well- known breeder of Paisley Block, near Guelph. This sort of enterprise is worthy of imitation. On 1\Ionday following Mr. Moffatt sold to Mr. T. Govenlock a fat ) heifer and three plump pigs for the hand- some some of .$100. It pays to breed good stock. —Considerable excitement was caused in Wingham one night last week from in- formation given by one of the citizens, to the effect that he had overheard a con- versation between two unknown men, planning a scheme to set fire to some of the hotels, during the excitement conse- quent upon which they could commit other depredations. A number of- the inhabitants were on the Qui Wye all night, but nothing of the kind occurred, and the story is now thought to be a canard. —The Wingham Times says (and we endorse it, every word): "Nearly twenty years ago women could be seen in the logging fields of Wawanosh and Morris, engaged in the delightful and. romantic occupation of picking up chips and start- ing the heaps. They were none the less ladies, however, and many of them are in affluent circumstances to -day. They were no useless dolls of fashion, but wo- men of refined feelings, sound sense and energy, capable of acting the perfect lady in every sense when their work was done. No wonder, with such aids, that those townships so marvellously grew and pros- pered. —Richard Blatchford,owner of the first Hensallite baby is a lucky man. No, we are wrong, Mrs. Blatchford is a lucky— we were just going to say man—but we mean woman. So great was the enthusi- asm of Mr. James Petty on the advent of the first baby into Hensall that he made himself the donor of $b towards it. As an inducement to the Hensallites and others to - migrate to Henson, he offers $10 for the next, $15 for the next, and $420 for the third. Ah! easy to see he knows nothing about it. There will surely be quarrelling for third positions. But • BIRTHS. ARMSTRONtt. —In Brussels, on the 15th ult., the wife of Mr. Robt. Armstrong, of a son.
