Mee John Knox, just south of Wrox- eter, made his second annual call on the GAZETTE yesterday, with as fine a basket of Northern Spies and Yellow Bellflowers as we ever saw. He has sold nearly 100 barrels of apples from his orchard last season, yet did not for- get to save some of the choicest for "ye local." Mr. and Mrs. Henry Perkins celebrat- ed the thirtieth anniversary of their wedding at their home in this village, on the 6th inst., a number of their fam- ily connections being present and en- joying a very pleasant evening. Per- haps no ones in this section are held higher in the public esteem than our: genial p ostmaster, and his excellent lady. It is to be hoped they will live to celebrate, at least, their golden wedding. At the Howick Council meeting yes- terday (Wednesday) the letting of the township printing was finally accom- plished. It will be remembered th st last year the GAZETTE was given no opportunity to tender, and the contract was given to the Vidette, at $85, not in- cluding the assessment schedules, which would swell the amount the township paid up to $94.50. This year the work was let by tender, and at the February meeting the GAZETTE offered to do the work, assessors schedules and all, for $49, while the Vidette tender was $55. Through a misunderstanding on the part of some of the councillors, these tenders were thrown out, and new ones called for, and opened at -yesterday's meeting. The GAZETTE tender again was $49, the same as at the February meeting ; but the Vidette tender bad dropped to the sum -of $38.75, $1625 lower. than one<month.ago, and_over<.$53,, less than the printing cost the town- ship last year. ' At theta figures, of course, the JGs1ZETTE "wasn't in it," so the contract was awarded to the Vtdette. Wroxeter. An enthusiastic public meeting was -held-in this. village It Saturday even-. inti at which an organization was ef- fected foe the purpose of establishing a Spring Stallion Show here. Another meeting is called for next Saturday evening at which it is expected that.ar- rangements will be completed, A large sum has been collected and the show is likely to be a success.. Very pleasant gathering of ?Masons and their families 'occurred at their beautiful lodge rooms on Monday even- ing last. After partaking Of an excel- lent slipper, in which oysters formed a prominent feature, an enjoyable time was, spent in social' conversation, listen- ing to the fine program, etc. The brethren of the "mystic tie" • are adepts in entertaining their guests, and it is no wonder that Forest Lodge is making such large and. .desirable increases in membership of late._ Mr. Hugh Thompson has just re- turned from a. visit with ..relatives and friends at Galt. Messrs. H. and O. Smith have bought the old sash and door factory and will shortly commence operations.

But diose who elegant buggies for the spring I were present were much benefited by the hints and suggestions. The princi- pal attraction of the meeting was, Mr. Wm.

On the evening of Thursday a concert was given the program of which was contributed to by the pupils of the -school here singing patriotic song. The Orchestra of Wing - ham also helped. While Mr. Houston gave a very instructive lecture on "Aes- thetic Treatment of English," which was listened to with untiring patience for over an hour. Mr. Jno.

[Two weeks' Budget.] Our burg has been quite lively this week on account of some of the inhab- itants changing their place of abode. Mr. Perkins has left the village and moved into Mr. Hackney's, on the Rob- inson homestead, 1-, miles from here. Mr. R. Lane has bought Mr. Perkins' house and moved into it. Mrs. Jeffrey has _moved into the house which Mr. Lane just left. Mr. -Fraser has taken possession of Mrs. Jeffrey's farm for a term of years. Mr. Mulvey, who has been absent from this neighborhood for the last five years have returned to the farm again. One of the inhabitants in close prox- imity to our burg was taking a good deal more than his- -share of. the road the other night in trying to make his way home. What a pity that men with grey hairs make such a show of them- selves. • - Our village has had quite a famine for ' d lately. Some of the inhabitants Mired to put off the evil,d ay as long as Editor Gazette :—I am not a. Patron, but as stated in a former letter, I sym- pathise with their efforts to better the farmers' position, and correct some of the many impositions of combines and monopolists.. Discussion, so cordially extended to us by the Press, if high- minded, and free from acrimony, is one of the most beneficial and helpful means of education. One man's study be- comes the property of many, and turns atteution often to matters of taaterial import, which - would otherwise be left without examination or inspection. My only object -in writing a previous letter on this question was to inspect and give my views, which I trust I did in a gentlemanly way, at least such was my intention. Iu my letter a few weeks ago I gave expression to my objections to the system the New Twine factory was organized, which has called forth a sneering and acrimonious rejoinder from a Patron. I would rather he had en- tered into a sensible criticism of the subject, instead of trying to squelch me with sneers. However I still think and feel that every reasonable farmer will agree with me, that the plan of the Patrons in tak- ing shares, or in other words becoming manufacturers, is wrong. Nor do I think the Charter under which the Society was first organized, permits them to be- come manufacturers. They -have shares now in Salt and Twine. Then • there are left the Flour, Meal, Spice, and Plaster Mills. besides Canning factories Implement factories, Wholesale Seeds - man &c., that are taking large profits from us poor farmers. If we connect them all with Joint Stock Companies, such as the Twine Co., I am afraid we will soon get tired of handing out cash, and become bewildered with the multi- tude of investments we are interested in. Instead.. I say that united and con- tinued- agitation, and making griev- ances known, through Farmers' Insti- tutes and other organizations cannot be ignored. and will have remedial legisla- tion from the government compatible with the general good. A word or. two to conclude in answer to Patron :—I did not say in a former letter that best Manilla Twine would be reduced to 6c. or to any certain fig - are, but that in consequence of the re- moval of one-half the duty, and thereby break g the Twine Combine,. would in sail probability bo sold very lo* the com- ing season, and possibly, below the cost of manufacture..- So much the better I say, but we that -have no shares will get ear theme , as cheaply as shareholders, who Willi ike cteiRi _we,nt all the credit for reilileiug lie irtee 1►1it they will have- to- share, the credit of .the'reduction with Mowat and Foster. ' Then again, he forgot to answer my "cheek ,criticism,' that ;`such a, contin- genari cv'miglit se . when speaking of a pOssfb e collapse of the factory. The best of busine_as men sometimes err, and the farmers: are not infallible in business matters. Hoping Mr. Editor that Twine will be down to -6C.', 1 leave the subject. A FARMER. Have. You? What 2.

The inhabitants of this vicinity have' been very much excited during the past week over the death of Mrs. P.

The sad part of it is that she died alone,without a,friend or attendant to close her eyes at the last moment.
