BASEBALL — On the 24th the elin- tou boys went to Exeter and were de- feated in a game by a team composed of Exeter players and some outsiders.

A PR'O IN ENT OnANGEMAN,—Hon. 'Little Local Items. The council will hold its regular meeting next Alonday evening. Mr James Steep has planted a few peanuts, just to see how they will turn out. Mr Patrick Page had a small can- cer removed from one of his lips this week. Mr Clarke, one of the proprietors of the Pickering News, was in town this week.

Coats has gone to Tilson- burg, where he will engage in the jewellery business for himself. Mr W. M. Giffin, of this place, has in his possession a well-preserved copy of a Bible printed in 1629. Just before going to press we learn, with deep regret, of the death of Mrs Peter Cautelon, sr., of this town. Mr Hiram Hill was called away last week by the sudden death of his mother, who resided east of Napanee. Rumor is freely hanlon the name of a young lady who, it is said, will wed a farmer of Hullett in a few days, William Dinsley, grandson of Mr E. Dinsley, who has been ailing for some time, died on Monday ; he was aged 18 years.

Jackson, sr., bas bought out the stock and business of Mr Q. C. Rance, who is going west. SMASHED; --On Friday evening last some one was so thoughtless as to sit down on the window ledge in trout of King's bakery, and push their back through a large pane of glass. They had sense enough left to skip around the corner before the proprietor could get out. COLD.—" From summer's heat to winter's blasts" seems to be the order of the season just at present, the weather for a week past having been decidedly cool and raw, uncomfort- ably so to those who bad left off heavy clothing. The probabilities are fav- orable for warmer weather. The frost of Tuesday nightdidhundreds of del- Lars worth of damage in town. A youth namedfantelon, of Gode- rich township,'wbo a short time ago came to town and ttbderwenta surgical operation, is still here, biit expects to return home at an early date, and be entirely over the effects of his illness. Mr John Carrick, who has for sev- eral years acted as editor and reporter of the Chatham Banner, will leave in a few weeks to fill a position on the Hamilton Times about to be made vacant by the removal of Mr J. D. Clarke, associate editor. Mr Carrick is a clever young man, and was for :some time publisher of the Exeter Reflector. Mrs James Tewsley, formerly a re- sident of Clinton, died at the resi- Mackeneee ]*snivel►, Minister of Cus- tonils,'and one of the leading Orange - inert, of t•he Dominion; passed' up -to Goderich, on Monday, to attend t]ie meeting,of .tbe Grand Lodge, which, was:in Session ere 'this week. This. is the firs* Grand L'odne --meeting Mr Rowell has attended for • a number of y#ara,and it is said°his special object In •attending•this time was to explain the governments action concerning the Jesuit question, and quellethe ;turltw[cnt spirit -Abet is anifeeti tg` itself among .some -of ,the brethren. `*' That he will' succeed in doing this is n foregone conclusion. with those who. have watched sinii.ar actions -iii' the- . past. DICKSON' S BOOKSTORE CONCERNING THE CEMETERY.— We have been requested to remind the owners of cemetery lots that the Committee has been busy trying to improve the Cemetery, and we are glad to say that some lot owners have been aiding thein by levelling and sodding their lots and killing weeds. Still there are many who live in tower and in the neighborhood whose lots are in as 'disorderly state, and the Committee would urge all who have friends interred there to do their duty in looking after the graves, The care- taker will do all that he eau. How ROMANCES DEVELOP.—Some time ago an esteemed minister in this county fell in love with and was mar- ried to a delightful young lady of a neighboring county. Ia the course of time, atter the happy couple had settled down, tLe bride's sister came up to visit her, and captivated the afections of a young man in the county, who shortly afterwards mar- ried her. In the course of time, a brother of the two young ladies who had married Huronites came up to visit them, and while here he fell in love with a sister of the last groom, and a few days since was married to her, Thus, the lives of three couples have been made supremely happy by a string of events that can bardly be termed ordinary. CRICXET—The cricket match on May 24th, between the Paris Juniors and theVictoria Cricket Club, of this town, was rather a disappointment to both clubs. The Paris club was ex- pected on Thursday evening, but as they missed connection were obliged to stay in Stratford over night, and did not arrive here till 10 a.m. on the 24th, and as they had to leave at 2.25 in order to be home that night, there was not very much time for a cricket match, Paris won the toss and sent Clinton to bat. They got a total of 43 runs, 10 of which were made by Koelle. Paris succeeded in getting 54 runs, and bad two wickets to fall when the game was called in order to dence of her father, Mr Adam Cook, 'let them have dinner and catch the Goderich, on Wednesday afternoon, train for home. Although Paris was ahead in the first innings, it was not a very satisfactory victory, as a one inning game is no real test of the merits of a club. of consumption. She was quite a young woman, but hat been in de- clining health for some time, though her death was not anticipated. Her remains will be interred in Clinton cemetery tomorrow (Saturday.) TOURt5TS' GUIDE.—We are in re- eeipt from Wm. Edgar, Gen. Pass. Agent Cr. T. Ry., of a copy of the company's guide to -the-fishing and hunting'. resorts along the lines of the 0. T. Ry, and • their vicinity. The little volume contains much of inter- est to sportsmen, and is ofspecial in- terest to those who wish to spend a holiday in any of the many pleasure resorts' of the Dominion. • Local Church Chimes. Rev R. Craig, of. Dunbarton, an old Huron boy, is visiting friends in this neighborhood. Rev W. L. Newton and wife, of Vittoria, formerly of Clinton, are visiting friends in Goderich. Rev Mr Simpson, of Brucefield,will conduct service in Willis church to- morrow, and Rev Mr Rumball will assist in the sacramental services, on Sunday. Rev Mr Wilson, of Toronto, of "move on" notoriety; spent Tuesday night in town,being on his way to attend the meeting of Orangemen in Goderich. At the meeting of the Stratford District Methodist church, Mr W. E. Treleaven, of this place, passed a sat- isfactory oral examination, and will attend college this year. \VEs1 Hl'RoN•.FAgt11ERS', INBTI- TuTE.-•The next meeting of the West.'

Our stock of carriages were alt sold last year ; so every ono we have this year is .perfectly new.° It will pay intending purchasers not to buy until they see our, line, as we know from long experience that they are tho most DURABLE, STYLISH and CHEAPEST Carriages in Canada. Buy a Princess Baby Carriage RUG and make the Baby happy THE ILLUSTRATED SIGNAL STAR— Such is the title of the Board ot Trade edition that has been issued from the -office of the Goderich Signal, setting forth some of the advantages of Gode- rich as a summer resort. It contains a number of engravings that will give .outsiders who know nothing about the place an altogetner different idea from what it really is. In' many of the engravings a mistake has been made in using what are known as "outlines"; the effect in printing not being nearly as good as if this sly]e of printing had not been adopted. Knox Church and Victoria Street Methodist Church show to much bet- ter advantage than buildings that are really more important. Still, the issue, on the whole, is a creditable specimen of typography, and will doubtless make the attractions of the county town better known than they have been. Externally, the Court House looks: to be a fine building, but the visitor will, find it dull and - desolate generally, `while the Court Room itself is a most dismal and badly. arranged affair. This, of course, has no connection with the publication in question, but is sug- gested by the view of the Court Heuer; presented therein. Goderich has some fine residences, illustrations of which are given, but Clinton has some that are nearly equal to them. li ;-: PAPER Wo have just passed through the customs It very tine, lot of 50OTUBS WANTED PAPER and Decorations CATTLE. --During the past few days a lot of good cattle have been shipped from here McLean and Andreessre w wJames Cart - .:'right.
