It is needless to say that he satisfaction of all conceraed. He briefly addressed the audience, explaining the cause of the gathering, and expressing himself pleased that so many shodid be present to do honor to the young lady and the occasion. The Westfield choir, 'which I may say is excellent, then sang "Raise the Flag," asong specially writ- ten for the occasion. During the re- tnainder of the ceremony the choir sang a patriotic song after each speech I may add here, once for all, that the singing was, perhaps, the most interest- ing part of the ceremony. Miss Jose- phine Buchanan then read her essay - the one that had won the flag; it was a very neat composition, and was well re- ceived. The Rev. Mr Swan then spoke very briefly in praise of the essay, of the occasion; and of patriotism ; he 'Is a very pleasing speaker. Inspector Robb gave George's Cross was the original flag,and that in 1606 St.Andrew's Cross was ad- ded, and that finally, in 1707, the flag assumed it present form, when the Cross of St. Patrick was interwoven with the other two ; he said that he had been a full private in the volunteers during the Fenian raid of 1866, The Rev. Mr Cameron spoke of the necessity of teaching Canadian and British his- tory more thoroughly in our schools, so that our children might know why they were prond of the old flag; he also ex- pressed himself as highly pleased with the patriotism displayed in the essay, and in the present aseembly. Ho was followed by Rev. Mr Campbell, Blyth, who, in very forcible terms, urged the necessity of duty -duty to our country under all and every circumstance ; he is also a very pleasing speaker, and was much appreciated by the audience. - Ex -reeve Johnston, of NA awanosh, de- scribed very graphically the excitement caused by the news of the Fenian inva- sion, and how all, Roman Catholics as well as Protestants, shouldered their muskets in defence of their common country. The teacher, Mr 3. C. Reid, then delivered a good address on pa- triotism. Ile was followed by- Dr. Mc- Laughlin, of Auburn, who spoke very 41beptably oh patriotism, on duty to our country, and of the higher duty to our heavenly king; he was glad to see the old flag wave over our country, but was pleased that while there were military men present, he sew no "red cutts."- Mr Kerr, one of the trustees, expressed his pleasure that so many had come to honor the school, which in future would occupy an honored place on the map of the Province. Mr Mitchell, of the Star gave a history of the celebration; he said that loyalty to the old flag had been described as mere sentiment, yet all our actions are the result of sentiment; had lived on the other aide, but preferred Canada to any country. The last speak- er was Mr Ratcliffe, of Goderich, who likened himself to the man who nailed his prayer to the foot of the bed, and who every morning pointed to it, saying "them's my sentiments;" he agreed en- tirely with all that the other speakers had said. Totes of thanks brought the proceedings to a close, butnot before a young lady had photographed it from several points of view.

PARTING Serowe% -Rev Mr Scott gave his parting sermon on Sunday evening last to a large congregation. Many went away for want of room. The Rev gentleman, taking bis text from Matthew, tie seventh chapter and 24th and 3 following verses, gave a very impressive and instuctive dia- dOurse pleading earnestly with his hearers to accept Christ as the rock on which to build their hopes for time and eternity.

Decoration day was celebrated here on Friday evening last. The Orangemen,Oddfellows and Foresters joined in a grand proCession in front of the town hall.

Atter which they separated, each Order followed by large crowds aur - rounded the graves of their departed brethren, until each grave was de- corated with flowers, while many a silent tear moistened the eyes of mothers, wives, sinters and daughters. After which they again formed in a circle and the closing ceremony was given by the brethren. They then formed into line, the Foresters in front, Oddfellows Bs the centre and Orangemen in the rear. The band played very suitable music, they then returned to town and separated, each going in a body to its own hall.

For people who are asking themselve the gnestion, Where shall we go for the holidays? we have a word of help. Perhaps they do not know that fifty miles from London, on the shore of Lake Huron, there is a lovely spot called Bayfield, where rest and health and quiet are to be found. Nature has here been most lavish, and people who know ,say there fs no scenery superior to it in Canada. A pretty river winds for miles between high wooded banks, and widens as it meets the lake. The village is scattered and old, with many grassy walks and lovely drives. English people say it reminds them more of an English village than any other they have seen' in Canada. Boating, bathing, fishing, driving, picnics, eta., are here to be indulged in to the heart's content. The artist will here find enchanting subject for brush and pencil. The air is pure, the malaria is unknown; and those who come for a month or two say they feel the benefit all the year. Then, what is an important consider- ation to many, board and lodging rates are low, being only from $3 to $5 a week. Americans say if it were on their side of the line they mead soon boom the place as a summer resort. This place has been known but few years peat as a resort; and each year, as it be- comes more recognized as such, match larger are the numbers that gather bore to spend thein vacation. The hotels have been repe.pered for guests. J. E. Swarts' "River Hotel"ia so well known we need say but little of it. E. Elliott has considerablyimproved the appear- anee and convenience of "The Albion-" The "Commereial" has received a gen- eral brightening up, and the proprietor, R. 13ailey, purposes erecting a hand- some verandah, which will add greatly to the appearance of the house. Mrs Sohn rerginioe bas leased the Queen's Hotel And is prepared to accommodate a good number of beerders, Mise Mary Simpson is prepared to take beardetsfor the summer, Goderich Township. AcciDENT.-On Saturday int while Mathew Sheppard was loading gravel in the pit 01 Wm Wise, the bank gave way falling against his leg and breaking it ' below the knee. Mr Peter Cole, who last week had a eery severe wound inflicted in his arta by a gun explosion, 'hi doing as well as could be expected although his arm la very painful. Some ot our farmers have com- menced cutting their clover, which will be very light indeed they are looking forward for a heavy second crop. Rev Robinson preached at Cole'e appointment last Sabbath. Mr Robinson is just entering the rninis• try, may be meet with SIMMS, Mr Harrivaell, while coming from broke bis bicycle which will keep him St home forsome time, The early part of the first passed off very quietly iii Hensel', very few taking advantage of cheap fares to neighboring to elle, but quite a num- ber getting off the station here, but in the afternoon ati was bustle and excitement. Practice games of 402t - ball -were -pleyed,--preparatioas-wer nude by the Ladies' Aid Society of the Presbyterian church here for a strawberry and ice cream social, w hich was held during the evening and was well attendee as these sociale under the auspices of the Ladies' Aid always are. The proceeds amounted to $62. During the afternoon also the Ep- worth League entertained the mem- bers of Mr. Casson's Saturday class to a picnic in Mr.McTaggaree grove just east of the village,wlaere the time wins spent in swinging, croquet, fbotball, races and various other amusements, as their tastes -inclined, after which they eat down to a sumptuous repast prepared by the Epworth League. In the evening a farewell and reception service was held in the church. A farewell for Revs. J. S. Cook, Ph. B., and H. N. Casson and a reception for Revs, H. I. Fair and McGee. Short addresses were given by each of the reverend gentlemen above named ,also by the chairman, Rev, El. Irvine, and on behalf of the circuit by Messrs. J. C. Stoneman and C. Myers. On Thursday Rev. J. S. Cook, Ph. B., who for the last .three years hasbee pastor of the Methodist church here, left with bis wife for Ripley, their new field of labor,to which they were appointed by the late session of the Guelph conference held in Berlin: During the past three years Mr. Cook bas by his earnestness, zeal and abil- ity in presenting the truth and also by bis free, hearty and social nature, greatly endeared himself to the people of the Hensel circuit. During his pastorate, the fine parsonage in Hen- sall has been built; the church re- paired ; the congregation and mem. bership greatly increased, the church funds ae well as the minister's stipend considerably increased. In the hearts of the people as well as on the circuit, Mr. Cook -has built for himself a last- ing monument. But thotigh:Mr.Cook labored ao earnestly and diligently on the circuit he has not, as too many do, forgot self improvement, but haa been enabled to take the degree of Bachelor of Philosophy, which was awarded him last spring, and also is well on in his examination to Bache- lor of Divinity, which by his aptness and stick-to-it-iveness he is euro to win before long. On the same day, Rev. EL N. Casson, Mr. Cook's col- league for the past year, left for his nevi field of labor, Fullerton circuit. During the past year Mr. Casson has proven himselt to be an earnest, in- telligent and aneceseful minister, but chiefly will he be missed by the young people among whom he was an es- pecial favorite, being president of the Epworth League and organizer of the Saturday class.
