We wish the boys, who have done so well, every success in their future life. WEDD1NG.—The, home of License Inspector W. J. Paisley, Mary Street, was the scene of a happy gathering on Tuesday afternoon, to participate in the marriage of his eldest daughter Maggie, to Mr Robert J. Dunsmore, now of New York. The ceremony was performed by Rev. A. Stewart; Miss Minnie Cantelon acted as brides- maid, and Mr. Chas. Carnochan, of Tuckersmith, as groomsman. After a 'wedding dinner the party left for their future home. The bride was one of the 'most highly esteemed young ladies in town. EXPLANATION.—In last week's NEW ERA was an advertisement asking for a 'farm to purchase. Several replies have been received, and some of the writers evidently assume that it is the editor who wishes to invest. It is scar- cely necessary to say that we have not wealth enough in the first place, and we have no special desire to go farm- ing in the second, but we just want to sayto all who send in replies, that their letters will be forwarded to the party for whom the advertisement was inserted, so that replies will not be expected from this office.

DASTARDLY ACT. —On Saturday night as Mr Palterman, of Stapleton, was walking home from Seaforth, along the railroad, he noticed a light on the track at about the bridge below Stapleton, which he thought was some roan lighting his pipe, On getting a little closer to the bridge he hard some pounding noise, and got down on his knees to see what was ahead and thought he could see two men stand- ing on the track, not seeing a lantern he was afraid to go any further, and thinking there was danger ahead he concluded to go back and stop the night train, which he knew would come along very soon. He had with him a 'lantern that he had bought in Seaforth, and also a colored handker- chief, and going back he lit the lantern and wrapped the handkerchief around , it, and this flagged the train. Telling of his suspicions, the train hands came up and found several large boulders Local Sporting Notes, [Will memb er13 of the various clubs Weave had d in at any time items of news for publication.] Through the kindness of ,Mr Norman McL. Fair, the President of that well- known association, the Victoria Club, a 'handsome bat has been offered to the player who at the end of the season has the best batting average. There is every prospect of our cricket club taking a tour of a week's duration this summer. The route has not been yet been decided upon. Through the untiring efforts of Clin- ton's veteran cricketer, Jas. Howson, jr., a splendid crease has been prepared in the park, where nightly the boys put in hard practise. The first of the Association Lacrosse matches will take place on the Recrea- tion Park, here, on Wednesday after- noon, when the Hurons, of Goderich, and the Dauntless, of Clinton, face the ball.

FOOTBALL AT SEAFORTH.—Fully 500 people gathered on the Recreation Park on Monday afternoon, to witness an exhibition football match between the Hurons, of Seaforth. and the De- troits, of Detroit, and the lovers of that good old game witnessed one of the fastest games ever played there. In the first half each team scored three goals, but the last half neither team scored, although a number of good shots were made on both goals. The Hurons put up the prettiest team and combination play, and their men, al- though much lighter, often succeeded in making passes, which called ap- plause from their admirers. It would be out of place to make special mention of any of the players, every man put up a good game. Among the Detroit team were a number of Canadians, one, Mr. Fred ,Corbett, formerly of Clinton. The visitors left on' the- ete-ning-L•ain• for home, they were in hard luck on this trip, as they were defeated in Galt, on Saturday.

Mr Robt Gauley has taken a situation in a store at Brussels; he is a steady, industrious and reliable young man. Mr and Miss Lougheed, of Park- hill, were this week the guests of Miss Macmurchie. On Sunday four young ladies walked to Goderich: it is to be hoped they were not "footsore and weary" after their journey. Mrs Des- mond and family left on Tuesday for Cleveland.
