Week.There is n good deal of misapprehension abroad regarding the survey now in progress of a canal from Hungry bay to lake Champlain, many believing it is the preliminary to actual work.The U.S.congress authorized the appointing of a commission to report on the practicability of improved waterways between the Western States and the seaboard, which, after making a preliminary report, was authorized to go to the exponse of surveys of every practicable route sufficiently full to base estimates of cost upon.This summer surveys are in progress for a canal on the States side between lakes Erle and Ontario and between lake Ontario and the Hudson river, and between lake St Francis and lake Champlain, The first named canal will probably be built, as the Welland is not deep enough for the largest sized propellers now in use on the western lakes.Whether a canal will be built from lake Ontario or the St Lawrence is extremely doubtful, owing to the enormous cost.If one ls built, the state of New York will throw its immense influence on the side of an improved waterway \u201cmember of royalty, being best known from Oswego, along the route of the existing Erie canal.That the route from Hungry bay will be considered is improbable, because the greater part of it would be in Canada.An : all American route is desired by our neighbors, and that consideration will outweigh the lower cost of the Champlain route.Canada would not contribute a dollar to such a canal, for ite design is to divert trade from Montreal.The election of the Hon.John Dryden\u2019s opponent for South Ontario has been set aside for bribery, so that the minister of agriculture has a chance of regaining his seat, which would be a great victory for Hardy.\"The exposures in the courts of how the late election was conducted show most unscrupulous means were used to defeat Mr Dryden, As the day of the plebiscite draws near the interest deepens, and, on the whole, the prospect for prohibition brightens.It is now conceded that all the provinces except British Columbia and Quebec will give overwhelming majorities on the right side.The two provinces named arc doubtful.The population of British Columbia is so small that its voice one way or the other would have little weight, but it is of the last consequence that Quebec give her voice for prohibition.As the polls open on the 20th there remains only a fortnight for work.Let temperance men sce to it that they put in the best work of their lives in the few days that remain.An issue surpassing any political question is before the people, and it will be a shame if it is not decided for the highest good of the country.On Saturday morning a fire started at New Westminster, and before the conflagration had exhaustéd itaclt the business part of the town was in ashes.There was not a store left and the three chief churches were destroyed.A furious gale of wind was the cause of the fire assuming such proportions.\u2018The loss is placed at over two million dollars.Three lives were lost.The man who caused the fire has confessed.Tho tendency of wheat for the past few days is upward, owing to the supply at Liverpool not being equal to the demand.It is so low, Géc at Chicago, that there is room for a rise.Oats and peas, which were tending downwards, are stronger owing to the improvement in wheat.Cheeseis held at last week's quotations in face of small declines at Liverpool.Butter is firm and as the weather grows cooler may be expected to improve.To aid in marketing the immense stock of hay, the railways have been asked to reduce their rates to Boston and New York, and are likely to do so.Whether, in face of the $4 duty per ton, any businces can be done in those cities even with à special rate for hay is doubtful.Large quantities of what a PT is termed shipping hay, that Is our ordinary clover and timothy, are now going tu Iiritain, where its cheapuoess is inducing a large consumption.Progress is being made slowly in set- thing the terms of peace between the States and Spain.The Phillipines are going to be the most diMcult item In the agreement, and It looks as If the islands will have either to be relin- qulshed to the insurgents or conquered anew by the Americans, It is undeniable that the insurgents of Cuba are dissatisfied with matters as they stand, and that very little would cause them to assail the U.8.troops.One of most wanton of assassinations took place at Geneva, Switzerland, oun Saturday afternoon.The Empress ol Austria had completed a brief visit to that city and was on her way to the wharf to take steamboat for the French side of the lake.She was walking, attended only by a maid of honor and a man servant, when a fellow stepped out quickly from behind & tree and drove a stiletto into her back.The Empress fell, rose again, walked on, then sank insensible, and was carried on the steamboat, which was close by.A hurried examination showed she had been mortally wounded, when she was conveyed back to the hotel she had left a few minutes before.Here she recovered consclous- ness, and asked what had happencd her, relasping into a swoon, in which she died.A post-mortem showed she had died from internal bleeding.The assassin was seized on the spot by two cabmen.He gloried in what he had done, exclaiming \u2018I did it,\" \u201cshe must be dead.\u201d\u201d Brought before a magistrate he declared he had been | The firet locates the route, the second born in Paris in 1873, but was of Italian parentage, and had served in the Italian army.Since the age of 13 he had been an Anarchist, and said he knew his crime would do no good to his cause, except as an example to crowned heads.He had come to Geneva with the design of killing the Duke of Orleans, but finding he had left determined to stab the Empress of Austria, whom he learned vas at one of the hotels.He had dogged her steps for two days before he got a chance of reaching her.If all Anarchists did their duty as | have done mine,\u201d he said, \u2018\u201c\u2018bourgevis society would soon disappear.\u2019 The wretched man is one of the numerous class in Kurope who are living in destitution and who think to better themselves by destroying their rulers.The Empress was 61 years of age and a most inoffensive for her eccentric love of hunting, she at one time regularly following the hounds in Ireland each autumn.She was a splendid horsewoman and a fearless rider, The political atmosphere of Europe is decidedly uncertain, and it ia impossible to predict what a day may bring forth.The outbreak of Moslem fanaticism in the island of Crete reopens the vexed question which nearly caused a European war, and did plunge Greece aud Turkey into a deplorable contest.The British authorities at Candia, entrusted with carrying out the agreement of the Powers, had appointed Christians to oficial positions.This roused the fanaticism of the Mussulmans,who assailed the Bri- | SEE Another item of the treaty, recognizes Britain's sway over Egypt, which te of vital consequence, seeing France disputes it.The claims of France to Egypt and the upper Nile country may cowe to a head at once should it prove to be true that on Kitchener's arrival at Khartourn he learned a French party had taken possession of Fashods, & town on the White Nile, 400 miles south west of Khartoum.As the British claim the whole country between lake Victoria and the Nile valley, the possibility of a collision is apparent.The Czar's proposal of a general disarmament has proved a damper to French expectations of assistance from him in a war with Germany, and itv is percelved If a conference is held France will be required to agree to give up all claims to Alsace-Lorraine &s & necessary preliminary to Germany\u2019s reducing its army.The Russian alliance is not as popular today in Paris as it was a year ago.ORMSTOWN Last week D.McEwen, who lives west of Ormstown, was knocked down by his 2-year old bull.The beast was punching him while down, with a horn on either side of the prostrate man.His little son succeeded in beating the bull off with a pitchfork.Mr McEwen escaped with slight bruises.In general, potatoes are a light crop in this section, altho' some fields are excellent, The U.S.canal survey party reached here today (Wednesday).Their first line passed this village a few yards cast of the grist mill, It is Intended to strike lake St Francis about 4 miles west of Valleyfield.The surveying party ls divided into 3 gangs.takes levels and stakes out its position, and the third, consisting of 33 men, drills the soil and takes soundings of depth of rivers, &c.The waterway will be 200 feet wide, by 30 feet deep.The main width of land taken will be 300 feet.The head en- gincers ave staying here today.On Saturday while Peter Finlayson was harnessing his horse, the beast kicked him on the forchead, causing a bad cut across the brow.He is recovering, A deputation from Christ church, Franklin, waited on the Rev.Mr Strong with regard to his taking that congregation under his charge.À satisfactory arrangement was made, and Mr Strong will include Franklin under his care on 1st October.This will be a great addition to his labors, but the new rector of St James\u2019 is energetic and vigorous.HOWICK The U.S.and Canadian: goverments have been discussing the feasibility of cutting a canal from lake St Francis to lake Champlain, to connect the great lakes with the Atlantic seaboard via the St Lawrence.Enginvers are at present surveying the route th rough this district.The line passes tl rough the farms of Alex.MacGregor, Mrs Carmichael, James Peddie, and Wm, Robertson.The canal proposed Is to be 300 feet wide with roadways on either side.The possibility (altho a remote onc) of such a cut being made through their farms is not by any means welcome news to the farmers, Four weeks ago a middle-aged man and a young girl arrived here from Vermont, and alter staying a few days in Howick secured employment with Mr John Templeton.Shortly alter tish consul and killed some score of | their arrival a notice appeared in the sallors left to guard his residence.A .¢ity papers offering a reward of $50 detachment of British soldiers, 45 in | oF information concerning & married | man who had lefthis wife with à young number, withstood the mob, and are reported to have acted with great bravery.After a trying ordeal of several hours they were able to reach a place of safety, carrying their wounded with them, One report declares the British consul was lung into the flames of his dwelliug, with the exclamation, \u201cNow let the English help him.\u2019 Then they fell on the Cretan Christians, and there are two reports, one that they killed 400, another 800.Everywhere the cry of \u2018\u2018Down with the English\u2019! resounded.A British man-of-war, which was lying in the harbor, shelled the Mahometan position, without much result, for before the insurrection was subdued, every Christian had either fled from the town of Candia or was dead, while their property had been either stolen | or burned, The Turkish officer in command was Edhem Pasha, the general who so distinguished himself in the war with Greece, He affirms he could do nothing with the mob, altho he had 4000 soldiers at his command.The Cretan Christians are furious and haveassembled in thousands, thirsting for the blood of the Mahomctans, and are with difficulty restrained.British, Italian, and French troops are being hurried to the spot, and the vexed Eastern question is again to the\u2019 front.While this old sore has been reopened, It is gratifying to learn that Britain has effected a settlement with Rusgla about the difficulties in China.The obnoxious Russian minister at Pekin has been removed and Russia has agreed to the British proposals as to the respective spheres of the two countries in China.On the back of this comes the announcement of a treaty with Germany about disputed boundaries in Africa.Germany hae formaily given up champloning the Transvaal and agreed to England's buying from Portugal Delagoa bay, which gives a much nceded outlet to ber vast territories in.South Africa, and completely isolates Kruger, 1 girl.The man and girl at Templeton\u2019s were described to the U.S.authorities, who sent à sheriff on to identify them, and who, with Bailiff Delisle and T.Gebbie, J.P., arrested them.They admitted having been married in Burlington.His name is given as Edwin J.Harrington, and he has a wife living.The girl's name is Woods, and her age 13 or 14 years.They waived extradition on the advice of the J.P., and left for the States.CHATEAUGUAY EXHIBITION 1 have received the following corrections to be made in the prize list, published in last week's Gleaner: Mr Robt Robertson of North Georgetown claims 2nd prize for an aged Ayrshire bull, Me John Boyd being 3rd.Mr Geo.Stewart on the Tamworth pigs has a 3rd for spring boar and a 20d for spring sow.Mr James Steel had entered An Ayr- shite bull calf, and showed him in the yearling class and got 2nd prize.Mr Chas.Metcalf got 2nd on honey in the comb and Mrs RR.Robertson 3rd.Miss J.B.Edwards got 1st on maple sugar, instead of maple syrup,and 1st for plum jam, 2nd on sweet pickles,3rd og red currant jelly, and 2nd on horse blanket.Mr Rowland Ness has produced a list of the prizes he was awarded on poultry, and everybody will have to do the same, next week, if they wish to be paid for such prizes, for nothing can be made of the judges\u2019 book.Here follows the liat: 1st on barred Plymouth Rock chicks; 2nd do do do old; 1st on Laced Wyandotts, old: 3rd do do chicks; 3rd on Brown Leghorns, oid; 2nd on Pekin Ducks, old; 1st Rouen Ducks, old.Mr Wm.Barrington says he was awarded lst prize on Bantam chickens and 3rd prize old Bantams.The prizes awarded on fancy articles having to be revised cannot be got ready this week, but it will be publish- od as s00n as possible.NAP.MALLETTE, Sec.-treas.Ste Martine, 13th Sept.VALLEYFIELD Thursday night, about 8 o'clock, a storm struck lake St Francis, and for & short time vessels oa the lake were tossed about like chips.A tow of barges, owned by the Prescott elevator c0\u2019y., were driven on the shoals west of the long point.Two of the boats were $0 hard aground that it was feared they would have to be lightened, but with the ald of two powerful tug boats they were pulled off and floated little the worse of the mishap.This is the advantage of iron vessels.Had any of the ordinary wooden barges gone on the same shoals, the cargo would have been almost a total loss.Loyal Palmerston lodge, Manchester unity, attended the Protestant cemetery in a body on Saturday,and decorated the graves of deceased members.Bishop Fmard, attended by members of his clergy and a large gathering of parishioners, on Sunday afternoon, visited and consecrated the new church on Grand Island.A procession was formed at the cathedral, and the large body marched to the new church where the ceremony was performed.Rev.Mr Beatt of Rockburn occu- pled the pulpit of the Presbyterian church on Sunday.At the evening service he gave an interesting and convincing discourse upon the proposed plebiscite.The R.& O.Nav.coy's steamer Columbian transferred her passengers here Monday night to the Canada Atlantic railway.Latterly the str Bohemian has been taking the passengers from the other boats at Coteau, and running the rapids.COVEY HILL.Havelock has at last organized for the prohibition plebiscite.Two committee meetings were held during the past week, at which considerable business has been transacted.Public meetings have been arranged for in different parts of the township.A good committee has been appointed, with J.W.Curran, chairman, and C.W.Potter secretary.LAGUERRE Alex.Cooper, who had charge of the butter factory at Aubrey\u2019s corners, Dundee, was buried here (his native place) on Tuesday with masonic honors.This was the first time a Masonic ceremony was witnessed in our church yard.About 30 masons took part.Although not feeling well on Sunday, the 4th inst., he attended a masoanic funcral at Fort Covington and on Monday worked in the factory until the afternoon, when he became #0 ill that he sent for a doctor who decided his trouble was appendicitis, and he should go to an hospital in Montreal.He went Tuesday morning and underwent an operation, but it was too late: he died on Saturday.No less than + scholars from our school are attending the French school In St Anlcet village, with a view of learning French which both they and others may understand when they talk it, Rev A.FE.Halpenny of Montreal addressed the congregation in the Presbyterian church on Sept.6th, on Sabbath school work.Rev D.Stewart and Rev Dr Me- Donald of Dundee exchanged pulpits on Sabbath.ORMSTOWN PARISH COUNCIL Met on 6th Sept.; all members present except Couns Graham, McGerrigle, and McNeil, The

says it learns with pleasure that Alex.Clark, with his two brothers, has arrived safely at Dawson.Mr Clark wrote they had secured a claim, full of promise, but which could only be worked to advantage next winter, as it is situated in a low place between two mountains and water prevents them working now.In the meantime they continue to prospect more than a hundred miles from Dawson in order to take up other claims if they are fortunate enough to discover any that will be worth the trouble.The three are in good health and full of courage and hope.Mr Bergeron held a meeting at the church door at Beanharnois oa Sunday, and intends following it up by holding similar meetings in the other pariehes, taking St Etienne next Sunday.His speech at Beauharnois was a strong arraignment of the financial policy of the government, with a few kicks over the Manitoba school question.*Mr Brossoit, Q.C.is returning off- cor for Beaubarnois county for the plebiscite.ee HUNTINGDON FAIR The lookout on Wednesday \u2018waa blue enough, for the heaviest and steadiest rala since spring was falling, and it was seen, no matter how the weather should change for the better, the roads for the fair were going to be bad.After falling for 20 hours, the clouds began to lift, and Thursday morning dawend brightly, though decidedly cool.Clay roads were heavy and all were muddy so that many at a distance, who intended visiting the fair, changed their minds.The bad roads 8lso had thelr effect on the entries com- Ing forward.The secretary had taken in 3145 entries, being 600 more than last year, but many animals and articles entered were kept at home owing to the muddy roads.They were not missed, for the show was a good one, and there were no empty stalis or shelves.The general opinion was, that it was the best that has been held, and in horses and Ayrshires it certainly was ahead of Sherbrooke and Quebec.It was an even show, no department being lacking, and all contaln- Ing new features.Taken as an indication of the state of the district, it showed our farmers areadvancing and that in every branch of their industry there is gratifying improvement.The attendance of visitors on the first day was the smallest for some time, but that on the second day was large.The distinctive features of the Hun- tingdon fair used to be Clydesdale horses, it is now Ayrshire cattle.The perseverance shown by a large number of our farmers in improving this breed goes to prove they find it well adapted for their needs.Easily kept and giving a large flow of milk it suits a section where there is no large range of pasture and where they are often short.It proves how many are into purchred Ayrshires that altho\u2019 three of the most prominent owners of Ayrshire herds did not exhibit\u2014Cot- tingham, Ness, and Wylie\u2014there were enough animals to fill the sheds and make a display that surprised those who visited the fair for the first time.A noticeable change has come over the type of Ayrshire favored.There was a time when the small neat Ayrshire was the rule, and in illustration of this we may recall the herd Peter Gardiner of Dundee onceentered.That family of Ayrshires is now not seen, and the animals exhibited were all of à fair size, and many of them might be called heavy.A roomy Ayrshire with large teats is a desirable cow and that type our breeders are plainly striving to realize.The bulls, both aged and young, were a splendid lot and there were cows that would have held their own anywhere.Durhams continue to decrease and only two or three now hold registered herds, altho the Durham strain is still common in the grade cattle of this county.Their place has been largely taken by Holsteins, which keep increasing, and are favorably reported of by those who have tried them as good milkers and easily kept on coarse feed which other breeds would lose flesh on.Dr.Shir- riff, who bought last fall from the herd of Canadians owned by the Hon, Mr Chapais of Quebec, had several entries.The doctor has had the opportunity of comparing them with Jerseys and Ayr- shires in his own stable, and declares the Canadian has good polats neither possess.The grades were remarkably good this year, the cows In particular.One of the judges, Mr Spaulding of Bangor, N.Y., expressed his surprise at meeting so many fine animals.At shows he had been at there were some good and many poor,but here there was a striking uniformity.The Ist prize taker for several years among the cows came second, the judges considering she was getting past her usefulness, while her competitor was in her prime.The three year old cows were a still better class, and gave the judges trouble, a number being nearly even.In sheep it was reported Leicester lambs were not up to the average while the other classes held their own.The lamb bought by David Pringle last year has developed well, and is promising.In Shrops Mr Roy had it pretty much his own way, and his flock is improving in quality.Of swine there was a large display, the Berkshires being the largest class, R.J.McNetl met the fate of many breeders, by being beaten with stock he had sold.The Tamworths are growing more numerous and, if the bacon trade increases, will be still more sought after.It is gratifying to be able to record that the exhibit of horses gas in advance of any for several years.The classes were fuller and there was a palpable improvement in quality, while Dr.Walsh stated they were sounder and more free from defects.To end the ery of favoritism, the directors had done their best to get judges from a distance, and succeeded in obtaining men who did not know to whom the horses belonged.This was plain in the heavy drafts, where anybody could sec the judges were considering each animal on its merits, for they were judged by points.Their first trial was the most severe, when three Clydesdale stalllons of repute were placed agninst each other for the first time \u2014MeGerrigle brothers\u2019 new horse, \u2018\u2018McLaws, Mr Ness's recent importation \u2018\u2018Fullarton,'\u2019 and Mr.McFar- lane's \u2018\u2018Boydston Stamp.\u201d The two first are much of the same style, equal in height and weight, and are undoubtedly two &s fine horses ae ever entered the ring.The third, while of great substance, is lower set.For the sweepstakes Boydston Stamp alone could enter, his competitors, as new comers, having no foals in this section.The teams were of unusual merit, and except in condition there was not much difference between McEwen's and Bell's.The brood mares, both heavy and draft, were excellent, aad it was encouraging to see farmers returning 10 breeding off Clydesdale sires.They have been fooled long enough with swall cheap horses in raising colts which can only be sold at a price that leaves no profit.Even one of the car riage mares bad & Clyde colt by her side The drivers were superior to any heretofore shown on this ground.The new class, best lady driver, induced au interesting competition.The erection of a poultry house gave, for the first time,an opportunity of seeing the entries to advantage,and they were numerous enough to fill the building.A judge, Mr Irving, spoke well of the exhibit, which he said included & number of valuable specimens.The advent of factory-made work has about extinguished the industry of wagon-making and of agricultural implement making in this district.Gali- peau & Henry had a separator of the Brasher pattern and a horsepower, both of excellent workmanship, and Mr Graves had a number of plows.Boyd & Co.had two portable steam engines for farm work, and three stationary engines, all of which were shown in motion.Of the portable engines several have been sold to farmers who use them for threshing, ensilage cutting, grinding moullie, sawing,and running cream-separators, saving much work that does no goodto horses.They are fitted with spark arresters, and are safer to operate than gasoline engines, The lower flat of the large building was not filled.Mr Brady had an exhibit of organs and pianos, which attracted admiring attention, and Mr Levers a large assortment of furniture, including elegant parlor and bedroom sets, Mr Coates of Ormstown exhibited harness of his own handiwork.For the first time in several years there was something like an adequate representation of the dairy industry, there being 42 entries in cheese, and 27 in butter.The judges were well satisfied and declared both cheese and butter would compare with that from the best dairy sections of Canada.The white cheese was superior to the colored, and the chief defect in both was in texture.The butter was surprisingly even, and only a few boxes were open to the charge of being over- salted.The progress made by our creameries surprised and pleased the judges.Of dairy butter there were only three tubs, and they were passed as choice.The dairy cheese did not recominend itsell to the judges.One reason for the increase in number of entries of butter, was the society's providing a large ice chest.Ice being exhausted in the village and not to be had elsewhere, the soclety was compelled to leave cach exhibitor to provide ice for his own boxes or tubs, which few came prepared to do, and the Allangrove alone was able to derive the full benefit of the box, they drawing the ice from their village factory.Owing to the increase in the number of combined factories, the make of butter for the district is the largest on record.There has not been a great deal of difference in the price of cheese and butter during the season, but there has been the difference to the farmer in choosing which should be made between whey and skim-milk.Several combined factories have been forced of late to change to cheese, owing to their supply of ice being exhausted.Altho the flow of milk has been larger this season than last, it does not look as If it will bring more money, owing to the low quotations which have ruled.Last year the show of fruit was exceedingly meagre.This year it was large and fine, perhaps the best lot of apples ever seen in the building.There was & fair assortment of plums, and a smaller one of grapes.Of pears there were only a few plates.Vegetables were excellent.The bread was good.Mrs Philps regained her old position as first prize taker.She used McDonald & Robb's flour, \u2018\u2018Our best,\u2019 and Miss Edwards, who took 2nd prize, used McDonald & Robb's \u2018\u2018Cascade.\u2019\u2019 There were 25 entries.It is remarkable proof of the quality of the flour of the Valleyfield roller mills that bread made from it should have taken first prizes many years in succession.In domestic manufactures the entries were more numerous than usual and the judges spoke favorably of them.Even to the uninitiated it was plain there were several counterpanes, rugs, and stair carpets of more than average tasteful patterns.The introduction of Shropshire sheep has had a marked effect on the softness and fineness of the texture of many of the exhibits, The rain of Wednesday prevented all the flowers that had been entered from coming forward, yet there was a tolerable display of house-plants.The rich colors of many varieties of coleus could not escape the most careless visitor, and in begonias and canna there were several varieties new to this section.Upstairs was the best assortment of fancy work brought together for several years back.Indeed, there was more delicate sewed work than ever seen here before.There was a 5 o'clock tea table cover that caught the eye of everybody, and on the table below it were many specimens of just as nice work.The conduct of the crowd was exceedingly orderly, and if any unpleasant incident happened we failed to hear of it.There were not many visitors from the States or Montreal, but there were many from Chateaugay county and a respectable contingent from Beauharnois.The receipts at the gate were 0700, against 8745 last year.The prizes awarded amount to 81206.The dining-ball was in charge of the ladies of the Methodist church, who served first-class meals both days.They petted $375, which goes to extinguish a balance of mette debt.Both the reprosontatives for the county of Huntingdon were present.His many frisnds were pleased to find Mr Scriver looking so well.The management of the show refloct- ed credit on the directors, who were assigned as follows: The president, A.Muir, senr., had a general supervision; the vice-president, Malcolm McNaughton, looked after the Durham and Grade cattle; Hugh Cameron, light draft horses; D.A.Macfarlane, Ayrshires; J.D.MacDonald, poultry and outdoorexhibits;Archd.Maclaren, fruit and vegetables: Nicol Campbell, sheep; Andrew Philps, tents and keeping order; M.T.Robb, heavy draft horses; Willimn H.Walker, the red building.The directors had induced a detachment of the Havelock troop to come and give an exhibition of their drill, and at stated hours ten troopers were put through their facings by Captain Barr.The meu are all fine looking young fellows, who bore themselves in asoldier-like way, and were at home in the saddle.The horses were not as well trained as the men, which is unavoidable in a volunteer company, yet the several evolutions were goue through in a way that elicited the praise of old members of the troops of 1839 and \u2018#.The sword exercise was particularly egood.Music was supplied by the Su Al- bane\u2019 band, which is the finest that has visited Huntingdon.Their leader is Fred Bisset, formerly of Hunting- don.Two detectives from the provincial revenue department searched the tents on the fair ground on Thursday morning.Liquor was found in one only\u2014 Blanchet\u2019s.In a tent by the roadside, leading to the grounds,\u201d a small quantity also was got.In giving the prize-list we may say it was checked by the secretary, Mr Maclaren, and may be accepted as correct with the books.HORSES PUREBRED DRAFT Judgen: Alex.McColl,
