FILIT The annual meeting of the Scarboro Agricultural Society, was held at VVo- burn, on Friday, the 12th inst. Scar- boro has usually had the luck of rainy weather {or its exhibitions, but this year, as well as last, the weather was dry and comfortable. Last Friday opened out clear and bright in the morning, but towards noon the sky became overcast with fleecy, seudding clouds, which, as the day advanced,‘ entirely obscured the sun, and this, with a keen wind blowing, kept wraps and overcoats in demand, and the visitors in motion. By noon there was a fair number of visitors on the ground, and for the next few hours they came pouring in, until they con- siderably exceeded the number of former years; at least so it was said by those who ought to know. There was an un- usually large number of entries in almost allthe departments. The judges were on the ground early, and entered at once upon their work. ‘ HORSES. ) In this dcpartmennt the exhibition was much above the the average. The difi'erent classes of horses were well represented, both as to numbers and quality. Of Imported; SBllions there “Em Serum! urnstfiflceuu speulmeus. As we looked on these animals prancing and pawing within the ~.riug, we could hear some of the sturdy yeomanry of Scar- boro draw comparison between the dis- play of horses there and at -London rcâ€" ceutly, and of course not to the disad- ‘vantage of Scarboro, Among the ex- hibitors in this class were Messrs. Chaney, (Toronto), Hall, Burrowes, Lawrie and Morrison, of Soarboro. To the mere visitor the number of young handsome animals on the ground, pre- sented perhaps, the most attractive fen-5 ture in the show of horses. The broodg mares, though generally large and well bred, were for the most part wretchedly thin in flesh. Mr. Lawrie’s splendid pair of imported mares formed a con- spicuous exception. The chief exhib- itors in this class were Messrs. James \Veir, Lawrie and Crawford, of Scarboro, Mr. Miller, of Markham, and Mr Doherty,of' Scarboro, were so far as we know the only exhibitors of drought horses. In the “general purpose” class, Messrs. ‘Vhiteside and Patterson, of Scarboro, and Wm, Millikan, of Markham, showed teams of fine pro- portions and action. Mr. Wakefield, of Vaughan, and Mr. Meek, of Markham, Were the successful exhibitors of bugg ' horses. CATTLE. The exhibiton of Durhams and Ayrâ€" shires was very good. The number of entries was above the average. Mr. Miller, of Markham, and Messrs. Law- rie and Wheeler, of Scarboro, were the chief exhibitors. The animals were all in excellent condition, but none that we saw bloated and over~fcd, as cattle are sometimes seen to be at these fairs. In sheep. of which there was not a large number of' entries, Mr. Lemon, of Thornhill, and Messrs. \Vheeler and J. {‘3}. Thomson, of Scarboro, were the sueeessi‘ulexhibitors, Of large hogs, Mr. Meltriek, of Vaughan, showed some very fine animals; of the small breed some good animals were on exhibition by Messrs. S. Rennie and Adam Bell, of Scarboro. ‘ Scarboro Township Fair. SUBSCRIPTIONS RECEIVED IMPLEMENTS, ETC. In this department the display was rather meagre in quantity, in quality very good. Mr. Brown, of Stouffville, and Mr. Wales, of Markham, had some stylish and finely finished rigs on the ground. Messrs. Allison and Forfar, of Sam-bore, exhibited in heavier ma- teiial. The most umque aswell as one of of the most attractive article in this cle- partment-‘was avTorontoMower, which, in THE HERALD. THURSDAY, OCT. 18, 1877. NE W ADVERTISEMENTS simplicity, ease of movement, and light.- ness of' draught, seems to excel nearly the Whole race of mowers. This machine attracted, and that deservedly, a large share of attraction. There were also on the ground, seeders, barrows, etc., which, no doubt, were all excellent articles. ‘ UNDER THE TENT. ‘ This tent does duty for a hall. Have not the peeple of Scarboro enough of spirit and enterprize to build a large l hall, which could be used for exhibition'l and municipal purposes 7 Is the rickety, tumbleâ€"down hall over the horse shed at \Veburn, the only hall, the only place of that kind in Scarboro ? This tent, once it was opened, was a centre of attraction to a large number of visitors. Here the fowls, roots, fruit, and all kinds of ladies’ work were on exhibition. There was, however, such lamentable want of room that few things could be seen to advantage. There was often, too, such a jam, that it was impossibleto go in or out with comfort. The display of fruit and roots was simply admirable, and both the quantity and the quality were ahead of former years. If any one wants a convincing proof of the fertility of Canadian soil, and the skill of the Canadian farmer, let him 001119 to the Scarboro Fair, and he will see there illustrations of both, which willgive him the most eminent satis- faction. But we must not claim too much for Scaraboro. We nearly forgot that the Scarboro fair is open to the world. We do not pretend to speak of the1 ladies’ work. Like themselves, a man may worship it, and still not compre- hend it. Fearfully and wonderfully made many things seemed to be. The use of many we could not' even conjec- ture; but they were beautiful to be- hold, and,‘without doubt, could we only have seen it, utility was combined With beauty. Were a proof" needed that the ladies of Scarboro are as expert in the useful as in the decorative and orna- mental, it could be had in the long row of leaves which challenng inspection and competed for the prize, and in the rolls of butter which looked so rich and tempting. Mrs. James G. Thomson gained the Holderness and the Society 'prizes for bread. Mrs. McGowan, Mrs. Ross, and the Misses Malcolm and ‘ Palmer, were the successful competitors ‘in butter. The display in this article , was truly excel‘ent. Altogether, the fair was a splendid success, and as: pleasing: to all as such affairs can be where all can’t come out best. ‘ Vaughan Township Council On Tuesday last, the 3th inst, ‘he above Council met at the usual place and hour.

It is said this has been the busiest year with Messrs. Gooderham & Worts in manufacturing whiskey ; the corn from which it is made is allowed to come in free. They claim to have the largest distillery in the world, employing over 500 men. and distilling over two million gallons yearly. I! On Friday, 5th inst, Mr. “’11:.

On Monday evening last, the Yonge' St. S. S. Teachers’ Association held their quarterly Session in the village of Patterson. The meetingr was large and business interesting. ' he Rev. J. “7 McCallumzdelivered an excellent address; land in the absence of the Rev. 1 Campbell, Mr. lumrner, of Newton lrook. gave a very interesting synopsis of the Sunday School Convention held at Guelph. It being the annual meeting, J. P. Rupert, Equ was elected Presiâ€" dent and W. Harrison, Secretary and Treasurer; Rev. Messrs. Manllum, and Campbell, Committee on Topics; The next meeting to be held at Ric-hâ€" For some months a young man named Wice, living on the 3rd of I‘vlarkham, has been acting very strangely, refusing to live at home, and roaming around among the neighbors, sleeping.r in their barns, etc. He appeared to be affected with a wild sort of lunacy, and claimn that the farm of Mr. llellenrkey belongs to him. For the last, f'ew weeks he has been more demonstrative than usual in his efforts to get what he calls his propâ€" ‘erty, and repeatedly chased different members of the family, threatening violence. Nothing could be done with Wice, and it was determined to have (him arrested , but he being an unusually powerful fellow, very few persons cared to take thejob. Last Monday morning word was sent to this village requesting: some one to go out and arrest him, and Captain McConnell, after being duly sworn in, undertook to do so. Wiee, alter he was arrested, went along quietly for a few rods, and made a determined effort to escape, but ere he could get free, the captain had a pair of bracelets on, after which he made no effort to run away. He was taken down to Toronto the same afternoon, and delivered to the Gaoler. His biv'nlher is at present in the Lunatic Asylum, having been sent there some months ago. ~”Thc}Indepeiident Order of ‘Goo‘d ‘ 'I‘emplars in this village. in tchd Celebrat- ing‘ the anniversarv of the Dedication of their new hall on Thursday, Nov. 1st, by giving an excellent Dinner, which Will be served by the ladies of the Temple, from 1.30 to 4- o’clock T).Il').\ At, 4‘ o’clock the Chair will be taken by Peter Pattersnn, Esq, M.

A Lunatic from Markham Township taken to Gaol. The elections in France Show a. de- cided victory for the Republicans, who have elected 314 members, While the Government. (or Conservatives) have only 201. Everything was conducted quietly, LOCAL NEWS‘ The Reunion in connection with the Mechanics’ Institute, which was held on Tuesday evening last, was a decided success. Several excellent readings were given and duly appreciated. A swing band, under the leadership of Mr. A. Spaulding, and accompanied by Miss Rupert, gave some really fine render ings. The Glee Club, accompanied by Miss McCallum, acquitted themselves erediiably, and contributed largely to the pleasure of the evening. A piano solo, by Miss Nicolle, and a piano duett, by Miss Crawford and Miss Nicolls, were well rendered. Mr. A. L. Skeele filled the chair in a very able manner. The receipts amounted to over ten dollars, jwhich, although very fair, should have lbeen a great deal more. Our citizens should give a more lib- eral encouragement to the Institute. We have a very large and well assorted library, which will compare favorably with any north of Toronto. The tickets for membership are now ready for sale, l and we hope to see the list of members largely increased,-douhle that of any former year. The price of a ticket is i only $1 ; books can be changed every l ‘Tnesday evening, and those holding tickets are admitted free to all re-unions A great many of our agricultural friends ‘should avail themselves of the opportun- ity afforded by the long evenings now coming on, fer the improvement of their minds, and the rich intellectual treat to be secured by the small outlay of $‘. Literature of a refined useful and elevating nature, may be found in the library :â€"works on theology, chemistry, geology, botany, history, travels, and all I the standard novels. Many of the latest magazines, periodicals and illustrated papers are also kept on hand 2 in fact nearly every lzind and class of literature, [except light, trashy novels. We trust there will he a large increase ‘ in the membership. As the funds in crease, so will the library be enlzxrged,‘ and these who inVest the money will (le- rive an equal benefit from it. No in stiiutinn can flourish unless well sup- pnrted ; and there are very few, indeed, who cannot afford to lay out a dollar every year in such a manner. “’0 do not know of‘ any better use to which the sum could be put, than in improving: the in- tellect. Those havingr the management of the Institute have her] consiflemble trou'rle in carryi-‘g on the neCesszlry business, and getting: up reâ€"nniens. There will be, doubtless, a few more entertainments at this nature during the coming: winter, when, We hope, they will have, what they certainly deserveâ€"a bumper house. Boat Race between Hamlin ahd Ross. On Monday afternoon last, the long talked of'race between Hanlin and Ross cat/no off Toronto. 0W1» thirty: lthlvuean A .r mam WM- urdagyona“ were disappointed, as the Water-was fironou’need too rough. A very large crowd-gathered around on Monday again, the roof of every build- ing in the vicinity of’ the bay being covered; the wherl‘s aml steamboats were crowded, and the hay near the startingr point, was literally block with small boats. At the signal to start being; given. both men took the Water together. Ross appeared, if anything, to be slightly ahead at first, but was easily distanced by Unnlin, who rested for :1 stroke or two, six times before he came to the turning: point‘ “’hen the point. was rounded. both men pulled for all they were worth, but *lanlin main- tained the lead, and gradually increased it. until at the finish he was nearly three hundred yards ahead. The course WM five miles long. and was covered by Hamlin in about; 38 minutes.‘ The race was not against time, as was apparent by the many stops the winner mode. illoss admits that his defeat was in all ‘ respects a Fair one. Over some $30,â€" ‘ 000 changed hands in Toronto over the lmce. A great deal of betting: was also 1done in Montreal and St. John. Han» lin is now claimed to he the champion rower of the world.

EPPS’ COCOA.â€"GRATEFL'L AND COM- Fomme.~“ By a thorough knowledge of the natural laws which govern the opera- tions oi'digestion and nutritlon, and by, a careful application of the fine properties of well-selected cocoa, Mr. Epps has provided our breakfast tables with a delicately flav- ored beverage, which may save us many heavy doctors’ bills. It is by the judicious use of such articles of diet that a. constituâ€" tion may he gradually built up until strong enough to resist every tendency to disease. Hundreds of subtle maladies are floating around us ready to attack wherever there is a weak point. We may escape many a fatal shaft by keeping ourselves well fortified with pure blood and-properly nourished t'rame.”-~ Civil Service Gazette. .Sold only in packets labelledâ€""JAMES Errs & 00., Hommophathic Chemists, 48, Threadneedle Street, and 170, Piccadilly.

HELEN QUATERMAINE; “I shall call for you again the day after to morrow,’ he observed, as they were driving home ; ‘so be ready for an- other cxcursion. ~We will take the northern road next time, and I mll show you the country beyond Highgate. But to this Helen objected. I “ If I go out again with you this week,” she said, it really must be to visit my little girls; I V cannot neglect lthem any longer.” “ I mongrth I explained that the drive is too long,” he answered, rather peevifhlyt “ But there is the rail, Maurice, and the walk from the station along those leafy lanes will be charming. Why do you raise so many Objections ‘2” she asked, when she saw from his lowering brow that the plan displeased him. “Because you are-too fond of re-- minding: me of thOSe children. It is neither kind or wise Helen.” “Explain yuurself,” she exclaimed, her Heart beginning to beat faster, and her suspicions to revive; “Why do you speak in this strange manner? Agnes and Effie Graham were solemnly bequeathed to my care. I cannot for- get lliis, ifyou do, nor will I be false to the promise I freely, willingly gave Margaret Cameron” “ Very well, Helen ; if you persist in thinking that they have a claim on you, so let it be, but do not force the subject on me, because it irritates me more than I can express.” “Whj should it do so ?" she per. sistcd. “ It is true that ifI married lshould expect a certain part of the sum papa would give me to be set' aside for their maintenance; but this would not interfere with you, as I wouldbe quite willing to let you, deduct an equivalent. From my allowance for dress, and so on.” “ Am I a niggard, that you say this ?" he demanded, angry, and hurt. “Is there anything this earth contains that I should, not be glad and proud to be- stow an my Helen ?” “ They Viai‘cd a few minutes before anything elre was said. It was painf’uf, indeed, to cxpwss a doubt of him just. 38 he had addressed her so affectionately. “ You must please to remember." he said at last. “ that 1 have never believed :hc tale told to you about them.

" Helen, my dearest and best, 6011’!) your too romantic ideas of right and wrong induce you to condemn tootharshly the course I have taken. No one can reasonably blame me for referring that woman to the lawyers. I told her that if she could prove that I was not cntitled‘_ to Mr. Munro’s property, I would give 7“ it up. It was legally mine.” “ Was it yours in the sight of God ?" Helen sorrowfully demanded. Helen sank batik in the carriage; and drew her veil over her face, too miserable to protest or argue. In her heart she felt that Margaret Cameron had made no false assvrtions, and that Mr; Dunlop’s unwillingness to make restitution had led him to refuse to search into the truth or falsity of her story.
