VAUGHAN AGRICULTURAL SOCIETY. "1 The Autumn Exhibition of the Vaug- han Agricultural Society opened on Tues- day and Wednesday last, in the village of a Burwick, but with scarcely as much eclat as it would have done had the weather been more favourable than it was. All the articles to be exhibited, with the ex« ception of the live stock, should, accord- ing to the rules, have been on the ground by ten o’clock, but owing to the severe snow storm which prevailed all Wednesday morning, exhlbitors were somewhat tardy, and consequently, when We arrived on the grounds, about eleven, we only found a few waggons and agri- cultural implements scattered about, while inside the tent a quantity of vege- tables, grains and ladies’ work was in place. Articles were continually arri- ving, however, and by two o’clock the aspect of the exhibition was greatly changed. By ten o’clock to-morrow morning, the society having relaxed the stringency of their rules in consequence of the inclement state of the weather, it is expected that a great many more arti- cles will be added, and the the exhibition will be something like one might expect from the number of eateries that the Treasurer has received. Nearly 1000 ‘ entries have been made against about 800 last year; and it is expected that about 200 more will be made. The number of visitors present on the first day was of course small, but as Wednesday is the day of the show a large crowd is expect- ed, for in addition to the attractions of ' the exhibition itself, a ladies equestrian contest will come 0E. The site of the fair is an ample piece of ground to the south of the village, around which are a number of neat new pens for sheep and swine, and in the centre is a very large tent in which the articles are exhibited. The carriages and implements are exhi- bited outside. and the cattle will be perâ€" mitted to ramble about the field. Am... a...“ nu m In Implements the display is very large and varied, and shows that the manufacture of farming machinery and implements recei- ‘ ves a great deal of attention is this section ‘ of the country. The most extensive exhibi- tor is the well-known manufacturer of the village, Mr. John Abel], who shows three grain crnshers with rollers of different lengths, and an agitator for regulating the feed; a Ball’s Ohio combined reaper and mower; :1 Weeds self-raker; a Dodge’s c0mhined reaper and mower, self-raker ; a. Dodge’s Cauaga Chief, junior, mowing ma- chine ; a. straw cutter, for hand power; one for eiiher horse or hand power, and one for horse power only ; five very fine cast beam and steel landside ploughs, one with a stub: ble attachment that can be operated without moving the hand from the handle of the plough; a. ten horse power threshing ma.- chine in which the straw carrier can be made to deposit the straw either to the right or left of the machine as well as in the rear; a. clover thresher, and a clod crusher. Mr. John Brown, of Burwick, exhibits two straw cutters, Qummiug’s patent, with mime ' - s hi self ' » ree difi'erentlengths. He also exhibits a cast beam plough with steel landside, and an attachment for removing stubble from the coulter. Another article exhibited by him is ltous’ patent plough, in which the mould board can be swung to either side of the beam with the greatest fa- cility, and then held in place by means of a. 'hook. He also shows a. grain crusher, erJno. Burkholder, of Burwick, exhibits a couple of steelvtoothed horserakes, on one of which the driver may ride while it is in operation. Mr. John Elliott, of Burwick exhibits an iron cultivator, Clark’s patent. By means of a crooked axle, an arch over the top of the implement, and a lever which is held firmly in notches in the arch, the teeth can be raised and lowered at will. Mr. Elliott also exhibits a commnn 'wooden harrow. Mr. Peter Mallaby, of Weston, exhibits what he calls a. twelve-bull iron seed barrow, which can be drawn from either end. ’ Eight “bulls” can be attached together, or two can be used alone. Mr. Jas. Coulter, of Weston, exhibits three cast beam and steel mould board ploughs; one of which has astubble attachment. Mr. Henry Frank, of Vaughan, exhibits a v_e_ry Brett}: wgoéen beam plough. ‘ Josefih Hall, of Oshéwaiexhibits a Wood’s reaper, self-raker; also, the Farmers Favorite Grain Drill, with n_in§ drills.“ 7 Messrs. Adams, Wiesner 8500., of Brant- ford, exhibit the Empire grain drill \vithlen drills. Messrs. Patterson 8a Bro., of Patterson, exhibit a straw cutter, and two fanning mills. Messrs. A. 8; W. Wilson, of Richmond Hi1_1I exhibits a @ngle pctiop fanning“ mill. The display of light buggies is really very fine. Without any exception they are of elegant design. and in some cases the finish is exquisite, while strength has not been sa- crificed to anything of less importance. One of the finest amongst them in all particu- lars, was that exhibited by Mr. Richard H. Lewis, of Brampton and Streetsville. It is finished and fitted up in a manner to reflect credit on Mr. Lewis’ taste. Along with his buggy, he exhibits a. turbine wheel churn, the only churn on exhibition, which is some- what surprising as these artECles generally occupy a very large portion of the space de- voted to manufactures at such exhibitions as this. iibixon Bros., of Toronto, exhibit a single and a. double seated bugg , and a single seated {op bugg . ' nur ., ,1 Ja‘xiners gfiéxttleworth, of Weston, and Mr. Elltott, of Burwick, also exhibit a single sealed buggyfiach.‘ 47H;~/ Four strongly made,and at the same time handsome looking lumber Waggons were ex- hibited by persons whose names we could not ascertain. Mr. James Shuttlewortli, of Weston, and Mr. James Cullum, of Richview, each ex- hibit a market Waggon. but neither of the vehicles calls for special commendation. In the harness department the display is more than half as large as it was at the Pro- vincial Exhibition. The workmanship and material are on the whole very good, but to a great extent finish is lackinc. .. - -v on I A, .-_.. A-.L:1\:I..

The display of onions is very small, but the samples of that vegetable that are shown are_ver3: go_od. _ - . . n “flea/bunches of celery shows are of rat/1191: a‘poor qggflity. Only fimr cafliflmxier were on exhibition, and those were rather stunted in growth. The display of potatoes was large, and embraced some fine samples ofa great many dili‘ereut varieties. Among them were a, few baskets of excellent Garnet Chillis, peach blows and flukes, and one basket of the new seedlingâ€"the Gleason variety. It is said that nineteen bushels of this sort of potato have been raised from one peek of seed, and thus far they have been entirely free from rot. The duxshplz‘t-y of cabbage was very good. We notice several very large solid heads of winter cabbage, besides a few excellent heads ofpickliug‘cabbage. ‘ .7- _-A._ r in squaghes the. display was very poor. Only two table squashes, and one moderately largefield squgsh, were on exhibition. 3 dozen aAud h’alf very fine citrans were exhibited. fa‘AIZé‘rflewwasapretty large display of field radishes, but only a. couple of bunches of garden radishes. .... .. ~ A , _,,,_‘H *0) b“‘qa;;a;;ga;y'3f was very small and poor, and the same may be said of the beets. 7... . 1- 1 ,1‘._,“_.:.‘.. an Luv”, p0... _..- _.V. There was a large di-éplay of turnips. The Swedes were particularly large sized; some of them weighing over thirty pounds; and the White Globe turnips were as fine roots as we could desire to see. “u va... v”--- There were onlvyvtihfen pumpkins on exhl- bition,, and the display of tomatoes was also exceedingly 5195111 and far from excellent. I a 4 â€"»w In both field carrots, and mangle wurzel, there was a very extensive and excellent display. ... . . . u .7 7 kn“ ladies department there is a. very large and varied Qisplav. We first noticed some very pretty speci- mens of hair wreaths. There was also a large display of worsted and Berlin wool work, but on the whole it is rather below the mark, There were a couple of pair of slipper patterns worked rather prettily; and the article in the shape of the Prince of Wales’ feather, surrounded by a wreath, composed of the rose, shamrock and thistle is a very creditable specimen of work and far superior to the other articles of that classification that surrounded it. Two rag mats were rather pretty specimens of that ; kind of work. In counterpanes there were exhibited two rather brilliant woven ones, and some pretty white ones. Beside the latter there is a great variety of knitted ar- articles. There are also several tolerany pretty specimens of braiding, and a child’s dress is exhibited, the front of which is very elaborately and beautifully embroidered. A large assortment of gentlemen's shirts, the Work of fair fingers, next attracts attention. In most Of them the work is far superior to the material in which it is executed. There is one of the shirts, however, the front of which is embroidered in an extremely beau- tiful manner, and the texture of the material is quite in keeping. Messrs. Gooderham & Worts exhibits a case of millinery, &c., in which there were some charming bonnets, and brilliant trimmings for the same. Dif- ferent parties exhlbited home-made blankets. which looked exceedingly comfortable ; and the proprietors of the Woodbridge Woollen Mills, Mr. Wallace, of Burwick, and Roe Bros, of that place, exhibited several rolls l each of colored and white flannel. Mr. H. Armstead, of Burwick, exhibited an assortment of plum and colored photo- graphs, of cabinet. sxze, some of which were pretty fair. and others‘but indifferent. Tn , A,“ "u. u-.l...’...â€" Blanch Arnold. fier pencils drawmgs of “ a head,” and “the Young Cavalier,” are really finely executed, and in the latter, the l shading is done evidently with great care ‘ and attention. Another of her pictures, re- presenting a. shepherdess standing watching her sheep that are grazing on the side of the hill, is worthy of special notice as exhibit- ing her correctness in drawing the forms of animals and her skill in treating foilage. Her “Italian Girl,” in water colors, is a rather good specimen of this description of drawing; but the nose is defective, and the curve by which the neck joins the shoul- der is rather hard and unnatural. Her “ Chassaur 7’ possesses the requisite life, but many of the outlines are rather hard, and in some points as much care has evidently not been bestowed on the shading as in some of her other picturesâ€"Abridged from Globe. The prize list will appear in our next issue. There was once an awful little girl, who had an awful way of saying “awful” to everything. She lived in an awful house, in an awful street, in an awful village, which was an awful distance from every other aw- ful place. She went to an awful school. where she had an awful teacher, who gave her awful lessons out; of awful books. Every day she was so awful hungry that she ate an awful amount of food, so that she looked awful healthy. Her hat was awful small, and her feet were awful large. She went to an awful Church, and her minister was an awful preacher. When she took an awful walk she climbed awful hills, and when she got; awful tired she sat down under an awful tree to rest herself. In summer she found the weather awful hot, and in winter awful cold. When it didn’t rain there was an awful drought, and when the awful drought was over, there was an awful rain. So that this awful girl was all the time in an awful state, and if she don’t get over saying “awful” about everything, I am afraid she will, by and by, come to an awful end. [We know many who might profit by perusing the foregoing “awful paragraph.” â€"â€"ED. YORK HERALDJ DR.

Meetings are being held, and the gentlemen who are desirous of sacrificing themselves on the altar of their country, are laying their claims to martyrdom before the sovereign people, with a view to making their election sure. We believe that Sir Francis Hincks is meeting with a cordial wel- Northern Mail. . Southern Mail. . Mail for Almira. sure. We believe that Sir Francis Hineks is meeting with a cordial wel- come in his old Riding, and has every assurance of a triumphant victoryâ€"a consummation devoutly wished for by all moderate politicians. Those who are familiar with the Globe's tactics, for the past twenty years, are not suprised to find it violently opposed to Sir Francis Hincks, it being well understood that he is a tower of strength to the present ad- ministration. As a financier, we know that he has not his equal in the Domin- ion ; and as a party leader, he has in past times proved himself morethan a match Win the columns of the’GIoLe. Not content with soundly berating Sir Francis, in the edi- torial columns of his paper, Mr. Brown has instructed Uriah Heep, of Ottawa, to repair to Renfrew and report progress, which is daily telegraphed in his usual untruthful manner. All who know the Globe’s “ Ottawa Correspondent,” are ‘ competent to sift the grain from the 1 lgreat amount of chaif to he found in his reports. There are a few of the old fosâ€" ‘ silized tories who aflth indignation at Sir John A. Macdonald’s taking his old political opponent into the government; they cannot see that this is a progressive age, and that Sir John is determined to keep pace with the times. In this move- ment, the premier has given further proof of his fitness for the exalted position he l holds. Richmond Hilf, May 3, 1869. Such was the experience of one of the world’s great men, as he remembered with gratitude the solace he found in the writings of thc “ poet skilled in harâ€" mony ;” and such were the feelings of all who were privileged to attend the Wes- leyan Sabbath School Concert, given at Thorne Hill, on Wednesday evening, October 20. Everything seemed to cOnâ€" spire to make the entertainment what it proved to beâ€"one of 'the best ever given in Thorne Hill, and one of the best it has been our lot to attend. 'i‘he evening was all that could be desired ; the bright full moon hung lustrous in the sky, while far in the background one might . . . . . . “Watch the Pleiads rising through the mellow shade, Glitter like a swarm of fireflies tangled in a silver braid.” Thus nature, in harmony with the oc- casion, put on its grandest dress, and the the bright world’s “ warbled in their ceaseless march” (at least so we thought) as we wendcd our joyous way over some :four or five miles of beautiful road to be l present at the anniversary. But although we are somewhat given to dreaming and ‘ fancying about things real and otherwise, I especially under such a sky, and on such ‘ an evening, yet nature in all her twilight beauty and rvthmic harmony scarcely prepared us for what awaited us in the church, which, pro tem, was converted into a concert hall for the children. Especially as we believe the loftiest stamp of beauty is in the “ human face divine,” . . . . . . “There’s naught so stockish, hard and full of rage, But music for a time doth change its nature.” H RICHMOND HILL, OCT. 29, 1869.

The building itself was tastefully (not extravagantly) decorated with evergreens â€"wreaths interwoven with hawthorn ber- ries encircled the chandelier and side- lamps, beautifully illustrating how the same sun that gives elasticity to youth, also ripens old‘ age. Rich vines of the same material were, like some precocious children of ambition, climbing the pillars of the gallery, as ill-content until they ‘ reached its summit. All combined to add i to the interest of the audience, which ‘ was large, and composed of all agesâ€" most indeed were young, but here and there you could discover some who bore the . . . . e . “ Searingr finger-marks of time That link the present to the past.” But the platform was the chief attrac- tion; the front of it was occupied by ' Miss Reid, who presided at the instruâ€" ment, supported on the right by the superintendent of the school, Mr. Purkiss. Behind them on graduated seats extend- ing over the communion rails and pulpit were seated the children, numbering, about 120, The sight was highly enter- taining ,' their white dresses, sparkling eyes and happy faces, led one to think of other robes," nobler seats and sweeter songs than are alloted to us on earth. crouch: HAâ€"‘H After the usual “ welcome ” was sung in full chorus by lhe school, prayer was offered by Mr. Carson. We do not wish to particularisc or draw comparisons ; the pieces were, not only appropriate, but were all executed with a skill and pathos that could only result from careful train- ing. Thev were all met by a hearty ap- preciation onvjthe part of the large audi- ence, animiny were “ enchored.” When the programme was completed, the “Bridge” was loudly called for by the audience, and given by Miss Reid, with such sweetness and power as seemed for the moment to link your spirit with that 3 of the author while he is yet in- spired to pen the “immortal poem.” Short addresses were delivered by the Revds. Jno. Bredin, and W. W. Carson. Mr. Bredin pronounced the benediction, and the audience retired, satisfied that, singing sacred songs was not an unimpor- ‘ tant part of Sabbath School tuition. And that for no other reason than because music stands above all the utilities of sound, because it appeals to the senti- ments of man; because It is soul claiming kindred with soul, that man has loved it first among the spiritual possessions of the world, and-\has sought in its voice a response to his longings for the good and fair. menu ttic ’ets, the results of the Concert? amount hi all to about forty-five dollars, which will be appropriated to Sabbath School purposes.â€"-Com. We are in receipt of the “ Prospectus Number” of the Peoples’ Journal, to be published every Saturday, at Hamilton, by John Maclean & 00. It will advocate the encouragement of home industry, and the “filling up of the country with “a manufacturing population, whose re- “quirements would secure for our farmers, “ on the spot, a home market of which “they could not be deprived.” Judging by the ability displayed in the number before us, and the neat mechanical ar- rangement of the sheet. we have reason to believe that the People’s Journal will be a success. The subject which it pur- ports to advocate is one in which every Canadian is deeply interested; and, as the manufacturing interest of this country i has never had fair play in the hands of the Canadian press, we are rejoiced to see that the time has arrived when the public will hear "the claims of native in- dustrv, as opposed to Free Trade and the encouragement of foreign labor. We confess we sympathise with the Journal’s view of this great commercial question, and will be glad to peruse his arguments from time to time. We shall occasionally give extracts from it, in order that our readers may hear what can be said in favor of the policy to be advocated by those who favor encouragement of the manufacturing interest; and commence with the first instalment. copied from the number now before us : “ It is with the material and economical side of affairs rather than the political, that the People’s Journal proposes chiefly to deal. Considerations of the former class must largely determine the settlement of our rela- tions towards both Great Britain and the United States; hence the importance of thorough discussion and understanding of the same; and, hence. too, we venture to addâ€"the need of ajournal specially devoted to just such a discussion. We claim to be entering upon a. comparatively unoccupied and too much neglected field; it Wlll be for the public to say whether we acquit ourselves worthin in its cultivation. After all that the general newspaper press of the country does, or can be expected to doâ€"the manu- facturing interests of thevDominion are still of importance sufficient to require a special medium of their own for reaching the pub. lic earâ€"a journal to perform were it no more than the humble task of collecting and for some time preserving in readily attain able and convenient form. the best of what is said from week to week on questions of industrial economy. What policy shall best tend to make Canada a completelyâ€"equipped and self-sustaining nation, and give full and‘ varied employment to the people ?â€"this is‘ the question to which The People‘s Journal will chiefly address itself.” N THE PEOPLE’S JOURNAL.” We copy the following from the Aurora Banner; these are views that are pretty generally entertained throughout the country, and apply to every county in the Province :â€" “ We would distinctly state that the re- marks we are about to make are not. caused by and have no special reference to the case of Appleton vs. Lepper. which lately occu- pied the law courts 'in Toronto. --- ,1 l 1‘. ‘,____,.... "141‘ r We have always thought, in common with, we believe; a majority of the intelligent por- tion of the public, that the system of ap- pointing magistrates in the country is fraught With evil.
