All the DIOUA‘IIIHH" was pronounced excellent. and the judi'es had no casy task in arriving' at a de- cisi n. Their award. however, was generally acquiesced in as satisfactory. In awarding the prizes ofthe second-class men. tlIe_jud_reg through an error, first gave. the set-0nd prize to Wm Hood instead of John blorgan. This was caused by the moving- of Morgan’s stake, and of his ploughin at the nortlf instead of the s uth side of the stakes. On examining: into the firmer it. turucd out that Morgan’s ploughing had not been judged at all. and being then too late the matter was allowe'l to stand over until the next day. Three ofthe jud.es remained until Friday morning, and havin : passed over-the plolicrliin; again, rec- tified the mistake, and awarded the second prize to Morgan, as given above. The sewin,’r machine, given with the first prize to second cl ss boys, was presented by the donor, Mr Green, only a. few days bcfo c the ploughing came off, and consequently did not appear in the printed list.

Monday last was observed as a general holiday, in honor of Queen Victoria's 49th birth-day At- carly dawn we were roused froth our slumber by the sons of vulcan, whose exuberant spirits had moved them to fiIe a royal salute, by some dcxterous Inodecfloadiug an anvil. The we Ither was clear and pleasant ; the sun shone out: brilliantly and dried up John Hepburn, East.

The races and games were all conducted with a feeling of good humored emulation, that aiforded much pleasure to all who wit- nesSe'd them. In the evening, Mr. Gaston J. Smith, assisted by Mrs. Stewart, Mr. Conolly and Mr. Atkinson, of Toronto, gave a delightful musical cu tertainment in Dr. Duncumb's Hall. We were glad to see a large and appreciative audience on the As vocalists, Mr Smith and his friends have made a most agreeable impression upon many persons here; and should they again visit our village,at some future time, we feel safe in assuring them occasion. that they will-have a bumper house to greet them.

Bar- nard, and the committee, are entitled to much credit for the excellent arrange- ments made, and the manner in which the whole proceedings of the day were conducted. Everybody appeared to be pleased, and perfectly - satisfied that Richmond Hill is really the place to visit by those who seek fun and rational pleasure on public holidays. NEW DOMINION MONTHLY.

We desire to intimate to the friends of Sabbath Schools in this locality that. the above Society will meet in the Vestry of Richmondhill VVesteyan Methodist. Church, next Monday, at 2 o'clock, P.M. The Subject for consideration will be “The best method of distributing the libraries to the Scholars”. ch hope that there will be a good number of delegates, teachers and friends of the Sabbath School present, and some plan suggested which can be generally adopted the roads, which were, the day before, anything but agreeable to travel on; and‘ soon our‘ village became alive with visitors from a distance, to witness the variety of amusements, as announced in the Committee's programm c. The prizes were fairly won, and in no instance can in preference to the many inconvenient methods by which the libraries in con- ncction with our Sabbath Schools are now distributed. MECHANICS’ INSTITUTE. A special meeting of the Richmond Hill Mechanics’ Institute was held on Friday evening last, for the purpose of electing a president, and the transaction of other business. Mr. G. H. Porter stated that, as he, was about to remove from the neighborhood, it became neces- sary that the members should elect some other person to fill the oflice of presiâ€" dent; Amos Wright, Esq., was unani- mously chosen to preside during the re- mainder of the current. year. The election of Mr. Wright. caused a. vacancy among the vice-presidents, to fill which G. B. Nicol. was duly elected one of the V.P.’s of the institute. The following sub-committees were struck :â€" RE-UNION COMMITTEE: Messrs. H. Hall, sen., Lafi'erty, Nicol, Hood, Geo. A. Barnard. Harrison. LECTURE COMMITTEE: Wright, Tecfy, A. Law, Boyle.

GEN TEEL. .MR. EDITOR.â€"I observe that my communication, which appeared in the Herald of the 15th inst , has roused the ire of bellicose “ Justice,” in Markham. In reading his reply I was forced to smile at his remarks, which were worthy of Pott, the editor of the Eatanswill Independent, as given by Dickens in his “ Pickwick Papers.” I would advise " Justice" before writing another article for the press, to peruse the editorial of the aforeruid editor attentively, so as to enlarge his stock of vituperativc adjec- tives, and to embrace every opportunity of acquiring a thorough knowledge of Billingsgate, as his articlesâ€"to judge by the one with which he has now favoured usâ€"are, like many condiments, nothing without the seasoning. “ Justice ’ if fearfully indignant, be. cause “ Observer ’ has dared to have the presumption to give instructions to country villages" as “Justice” puts it, but to desire that justice should be shown to those who take part in the games and merrymakings of the day we delight to celebrate. It is evident that; “Justice” coincided with the Poet in saying, “ 0 wad some power the giftie gie us, To see Oul‘Suls as ither see us.” No! uol his invocation seems rather to be, “ 0, show us not our hideous selves, The gods we love to worship,” And because “ Observer" has the temerity to hold up the mirror, and let “Justice” and some of his compeers get a look at themselves, from an outside point of view; he is as much enraged as the old lady who said the pedlar’s look- ing-glass “made her look a horrid old never Jacob Peterborough, praying to be re- moved from School Section, No. 8, to School Section, N0. 9; from Archibald fright.” Is it not worthy of remark, that. “ the gentleman on the other side of the to the Treasurer of sum of $50 as a subscription in aid of house" does not. venture to contradict my Cameron and others for agrant of money, . statements, except by the assertion that; sion, but II-lksi'iciftment‘ouusclves by say- titres” apply to Mechanics’ Institutes, tolfiud out who the parties are, that fire “ evarybody” was ‘_‘ well pleased,” pro- bably by everybody, meaning himself and his few friends; for he surely could not have been so deaf as not to hear the murmurs ofdiscontent which arose on the last celebration, not only from the outsiders, but from those of his fellow- villagzers, who were candid enough to admit that any good could come out; of Nazareth. (“an “ Justice’ deny that it was a preconccrted arrangement, avowed before the prizes were competed for at all, that the majority of the large prizes must remain in the village ? And in thc men’s race, when a youngr gentleman. I think from Whitby, showed his superior ity to the others in fair running, was he not diddled out ofthe prize bv some quibble of those disinterested individuals who had the management of the affair: and afterwards laughed at for his defeat. than adding insult to iniurv ? I refrain from mentioning other instancesâ€"err. uno discc omncs. The motto of "Jus- tice” seems to be, “ let justice be done when favorable to us. but not when it is against. us.” Has our critic not. chosen a very unsuitable appellation ? As to the charge 0f“jcalousv." it is almost too trival and unfounded to be noticed.
