A FARMER'S VOICE.
A young Canadian farmer, erne has
cast his lot in the prosperous county of
Ilurou, has• been reading a Dakota
paper and has formed an opinion of
that country. One would almost think
that he had been reading the puffing
Mid blowing and asinine stall of a Sea -
forth piper rather than the Red River
Valley Record. Our sensibe farmer
friend says :—
To the Editor o/ The Nems -Record.
DEAR SIR,—Some are wondering
what is the cause of so much wind in
this vicinity at present. Let. me tell
them. It seems as though a person in
Dakota captured a -blizzard and divided
it into Many parts. Having clone up
the section, in paper and labelled each
paper the "Red sliver Record" he sent
them to niauy of the people in this
section. When the papers, were open-
ed the blow was noticed. I was not
aware that blizzards were made of
aper, but these papers were blow
from one end to the other. According
to it, the sun never shone •'bn such a
grand and glorious locality as Red
River Valley. It says one man went
there with nothing but a pony and a
jack-knife, and is now very wealthy.
He must have been hard up when he
went there when he had not even a
pocket to put his knife in. He 'must
have gone out on his pony and began
trading with his knife and must have
got boot every time. Many other in-
stances are given of those who went
there with nothing but something in-
significant, and are now independently
rich, d\vuing large tracts of land and
twiny horses .and cattle. -If these
things be true it is no wonder so many
are leaving Dakota, They have no
chance to spend money there and niust
spend it solnewhere.so they come to
Canada. Well, I am not going to
Dakota yet as 1 cannot afford to buy a
balloon for that is one thing that will
soon be needed if the Red River Record
blows Dakota much higher. Now
when a very fresh wind is blowing you
may conclude that the man in Mayville,
Dakota, -has captured another blizzard.
Yours &c.,
A HURON FARMER.
CELEBRATING THE 24•TL1.
Editor News•Record.
(a,S1R,—What is this town going to do
on the 24th inst.? I see Exeter is
having -Athletic games, &fc , or what
they call a farmers pie,nio. Can we do
nothing? Are we Tess loyal than they ?
Dungannon., too, is having Caledonian
games and horse races. Goderich s
falling into line with an entirely new
departure. When in the round town
lately I !earned that Mayor Butler has
been for some time arranging for the
public execution of three useless and
very meddlesome citizens—flat earth
Scuith, Mother Carey and a fat, toothless,
owl,faoed North street horse trader.
The usefulness of the • first, and •laet. be.
i g entirely gone, I was led to be
lieve that this arrangement was com-
pleted and ready to be advertised, but
as the notorious lady got a hint caber
impending fate and lett town, her de,
parture may cause a change. But the
Mayor says the boys must have a good
day's sport. Consesueptlyothgriar'ries_
not so notorious, but deserving of such
a fate, are. plenty in Goderich. One of
which, a tall, thin, cadaverous spec-
tacled lady, a prominent member of the
U. C. W. T., who attends to every-
body's business but her own, has been
selected and will surely suffer. The
only drawback' to this excellent pro,
gramme of sports in the circular city
is the want of a first class marksman,the
lady being so attenuated and thin,it will
take the, very best to be successful.
The Mayor being very humane and un•
willing to see her stiffer unnecessarily,
must have h first class rifleman. If
there are any crack shots in our Gun
Club or the Huron R. A., let them
apply to Mayor Butler at onoe"and I
think they will be engaged. Boys,
here's your chance to win distinction
for our town. There is just one possible
drawback, I am told, to this longed for
,programme. The last mentioned lady,
probably divining her fate, with the ,
A COWARDLY STATEMEXT.
Editor Newr'R'ecord.
DEAR SIR,—As an humble member
of the great Conservative Party, per.
mit ale to thank you fur your manly and
straight challenge to the editor of the
New Era in the matter of Gore's charges
against M. C. Cameron. The editor of
the New Era Must certainly have known
that his grave charges were untruthful,
else he would have attempted at least
to have made out a case ere this.
Surely a month was enough time to
prove a serious accusation against a
large and respectable body of men. As
a lowly member of the Conservative
Party I am sure there would not he
any difficulty in securing 81,000 and
place it along with the $500 you have
already offered for the proof. I am
indeed pained to know that Mr.
Holmes would stigmatise and slander
so manyeople and crawl away from
supposedlypsincere statements without
backing them up with any proof what-
ever when challenged to do so. I had
long been a reader of the New Era and
placed some confidence in its state-
ments, but hereafter I must conscien-
tiously sock other and straight proof
before I can place confidence in any
accusations that paper may make
against the Conservative Party. Yon
have proven the New Era to be unre-
liable and its accusations have been
proven to be cowardly. You deserve
the thanks of the Party.
Yours faithfully,
ANTI -HUMBUG.
THE HORSE WITII 'I'[IE BLUE EYE.
To Ihe•Editor of the News -Record, Clinton,
Sfe,—Kincardine claims as one of her
citizens a horse -dealer of sleek face,
keen eye and gentle disposition. Gode-
rich also recognizes as one of' her citizens,
a man who claims tobe ahorse dealer, hut.
unlike the Kincardine man has adult
eye, is of large proportions, very cors
pulent and what bogie might call loud,
mouthed. 1Iowev4, it has never been
said that he in any way resembles a
mule, except in kicking propensities,
and then only when "The Squar Deal"
don't suit him. A sort of brotherly
feeling appears to have existed between
these two worthies until a few days ago,
when it was blown to atoms as suddenly
as if a bombshell hal exploded between
them and all through a horse which,
like the girl in the song, had "eyes•5f
blue." The facts as given to me are as
follows:—The Kincardine man wanted
a horse and asked the Goderich man to
purchase and send him one. 'J'he Gode-
rich man having a horse as above de-
scribed thought he would "fill the bill"
and at once forwarded him to his friend,
but when the horse was handed over to
the Kincardine man the "blue eye" was
at once detected and thinking that his
t
corpulence of Goderich had actually
tried to beat him he betook himself to
this town on the next train. The meet•
ing here bas been described to me as
follows:—After mutual greetings the
sleek faced geutleman oast a keen
glance at his corpulence and remarked
quietly: "Fine horse that you sent. mel"
"Wall, about as fine a horse as I have
swapped for years, I reckon 1" answered
his corpulence. "Yes, if he hadn't blue
eyes," cooly replied the sleek faced
fellow. "Blue eyed horse," rejoined his
corpulence with a broad smile , "who
ever heard of a blue eyed horse 7"
"Now look right here," continued the
sleek faced man, "I don't want you to
take me for either Dan McDougall or
Jack Adams or Dan McGillicuddy, if you
have been fool enough to have a blue
eyed horse passed on you don't think for
a moment that such an animal can be
put on to me." His corpulence raged
and fumed, but the sleek man cooly
,said : "I'll keep Blue Eye if you wish,
but only at what he is worth." The
offer was accepted. 'L'he sleek faced
man then smiled and addressing his
corpulence said somewhat as follows :—
"Old Man, let me give you a word of
advice. I've known you for a long
time, but have never considered you a
judge of hoss-flesh. You thought you
were and in consequence have dropped
quite a little pile. Quit the business
while you have something left. Your
eyesight never was good for examining
horses and as some hayseed has put a
blue eyed critter on you it must be fail-
ing. Again, I say, go out of the busi-
ness. If you simply wish to make a
living go into politics or law—neither
business requires a "great head," but if
you want to make money go into hogs.
Hoes are high and if you buy low and re•
fuse the blue,eyed ones you must make
money If you prefer politics form an
alliance with .John Sheehan and remain
here. Ifyou think law is your fort, en.
•gage .Jas. Breckenridge and remove to
• P.aisley.for._practice.... Rut.. Akio -old yog_
go into hogs, secure the services of Geo.
Abbot and start business at Duggan's
corners. You could run a sheepskin
business in connection and I have no
doubt that old W. G. will take them
off your hands at a fair advance for the
sake of old times. "Adieu, old man,
farewell old sprinter," said the sleek
faced man, as he again . smiled and
jumped into the bus whilea young law
clerk, who was present, remarked :
"That's the meanest man o►1 top of
earth." My iuforrhant states that hie
cospulenoe Must have decided to go in-
to the hog and sheepskin business, as he
was seen consulting with old W. G. next
day.
Yours, &c.,
