IIIIRON BOY, ABROAD.----DEAR1 EDITOR, -
THE Exrosrro never wearies in recounting
with pleasure nd ride the , duccesees of
" Huron's son " in distant :parts. The
writer was p ompted to pen • this item
through a rece • t visit to Detroit,' the pleas-
ure derived fro the trip being added to
considerably b co ing in contact with
some from ho e, ho have distinguished
themselves in the beautiful city of the
straits. Notic bly a ong these i we might
first mention D • R. Hislop, son of Mr.
Thomas Hislo , la e of Seaforth, and
brother of Mr. James 'Hislop,' merchant,
Cromarty. The doctor, whose office rooms
are in the Bamlet 'building, near the Gris-
wold House, enjoys a luerative practice, in,
the city. His elegant, red pressed brick
residence, on Grand' river avenge, , affords
him all the comforts modern conveniences
can supply. Hie brother Thomas, at one
time also one of Huron's public school
teachers, is fast making. a name for himself
in the legal profession. - We might also
couple the names of Dr. McLeod And Dr. J.
L. McTaggart, formerly f Chiselhurst,
who, we regret to learn, has been forced to
take a rest indefinitely on account of ill -
health. We also met with familiar faces
but recently removed from eaforth, in the
ersone of Mr. John Robb aid Mr. Charles
Stewart, our late band leader, both of whom
expressed their contentmeneiwit their new
home. We might add many more, but
these are sufficient to represent tie many.-

ing, of ,the Own council was held on Mionday

to have the sum of $3,050' placed to their

resolution to this effect was passed. The
street cormrittas report recommended , ex-
penditures as follows : Sidewalks, $766 ;
gravelling, $506 ; drains, $1,133, making
the total expenditure recommended $2,406.
The report Was amended by reducing Ithe
amount for Sidewalks to $374 and drains to
$372, to be psed mainly in necessary repairs,
the new wotk to be done on the frontage
tax system. i The amount for gravelling was
left as in till) report, thus making the total
1.
estimated e penditure fcr streets this year
$1,252. Th s, of course, will be in addition
to the proposed new granolithie walks.
The report 98 amended was adopted. In

LAYING' OF THE CORNER STONB.-4s-1
previously announced, the services in con-
neotion with the laying of the corner stone
of the new Methodist church, Kippen, were
held on Sabbath, July 2ad. At the MOM-
ing service, the old church was nicely ;
filled. Rev. J. E. Ford, of Parkhill, chair- 1 -
man of the Exeter district, preached an exel
cellent sermon from the words, "Rare i
faith in God." A pleasant surprise to hied
congregatien was the presence of their new
pastor, Rev. T. Long, who took charge efl
the afternoon service. In the evening Rev.
J. E. Ford, by his elegant discourse, again
delighted all who gathered for worship. Al-
though the Weather was unfavorable, large I
congregations assembled for eaoh'service,and
we trust the day will long be remembered ,
by those who heard the word of life, On
Monday, at 5 o'clock p. m., a large tom -
party gathered to witness the solemn °ere.
rnony of laying the corner stone, vvhich was I
conducted by Rev. J. E. Ford. The stow
was laid by MTIL Wm. Ivison and Mre,Joha
Berry, after which an repaired to Thin.

had stared no pains in preparing the
grounds and arranging everything in such
way that all might have an enjoyable time.

beneath the loads of good things provided
by the ladies for satisfying the wants of the
inner man. The addresses of Revs. Jewett
