The Council of Agricultural and Arts Association of Ontario, in accordance with the scheme of annual examinations in subjects having a direct bearing upon practical agriculture, have issued their second circular on this subject. The subjects embraced in the examination wrll consist of:â€" lstâ€"Different kinds of soils; their properties; variations in their composi- tion, texture and condition ; essential difiercnces between good and poor soils Substances found in plants, and sources whence they are obtained. Exhaustion ofland; causes; how prevented; best modes of restoring exhausted lands. Necessity for manure, production and waste of farm‘yard manure ; use of arti- ficial inanures ; lime, salt,gypsum, bone dust. and mineral superphosphates as mauures. 2nd-â€"â€"Tillage Operations 5â€"Ploughâ€" ing, harrowing, rolling, etc., respective advantages and disadvantages, of deip and shallow, tall and spring ploughing; subsoiling; fallowing; drainage. where necessary and how done ; effects of thorough tillage on lands; limes and methods of sowing; after cultivation; harvesting. 3rdâ€"â€"â€"The crops which each kind of sorl is best adapted to produce; succesâ€" sion or rotation of crops; importance and necessity of rotation; rotation suit- able to different soil and climates in Ontario; good courses of cropping; bad courses of cropping. 4th» Live Stockâ€"Best kinds of stock for various farms and localities; summer and winter management ; economy of good management, general rules for guidance in breeding; conditions and circumstances favorable to cattle farm- ing, sheep farming, dairy farming and mixed husbandry. 5th~Food-Chemical elements and compounds found in the most important kinds of feed and fodder, which can be successfully grown in Ontario; different materials necessary for growth. mainten- ance of heat, and laying on flesh; feed- ing and fattening of animals. Together with the properties and uses of different artificial manures; the culti- vation of roots, green fodder, drainage, exhausted lands. Breeding of animals: Horses, cattle, sheep, swine; food and feeding; disease of crops, orchards, forestry and entomology. With this array of subjects it will be an easy task to obtain a certificate with the present Agricultural education of farmers' sons. Indeed, it is doubtful, if any who intend to apply for these certificates will ever put their knowledge into practice on the farm. 1 'A LiEcAL POINT. The Brockton Corporation refused to; pay Mr Robins. of Toranto, his claim for auditing and posting the books of the corporation, and appealed against the verdict obtained by Robins to a higher court, upon the plea of no con,- tract under seal.

Trustee Election. The nominations for two School Trust ltees to fill the places of Mr Robt Marsh and Mr I. Crosby were made on Wednsc- day week, five candidates being placed in the field,viz.,the two old Trustees Messrs lrosby and Marsh, and three new men. Dr Wilson, C Mason, and William H Glass. Messrs Glass and Mason exâ€" pressed their intention of not running. The contest. therefore. rested between the three remaining men. The election took place yesterday before Mr John 11 Sanderson, Returning Ofiieer, More interest was apparent than in the Muniâ€" cipal election for the more reason that the election for School Trustees was by open vole. At the close of the poll the vote stood: Marsh................ 62 Wilson.......... . 58 Cronby.......... 57 Without wishing or desiring to cast any reflection on the two gentlemen who have obtained the majority of votes. we cannot but express our regret at. the de~ feat of such a good man as Crosby. No man on the Board of Trustees is better posted is the work necessary to a School Trustee. From what we can understand, the cause of his defeat arises from the action taken in removing the High School to its present position, thereby incurring increased traction. Apart from every thing else it is very gratiâ€" fying to see an interest taken in school matters by the ratepayers. An im- provement, however. might be made in the mode of conducting the election by altering the law so that. school elections might be held on the same time as Municipal, and the vote taken by ballot, thereby saving trouble and expense. Woodbridge J ottmgs (Iron our own Correspondent) It was very quiet here on Christmas Dav.

Roe was married in Toronto on Wednesday evening at seven o’clOEk. I wish them the compli» merits of the season. Tire other one was Mr. Wm. Ewart, of Kansas' city, second son of the late James Ewart, spending his Christmas with his mother and friends iii this part, hiiVinx the misfortune to bury his wife a short time ago. [also noticed on Christmas Day a stranger viewing the streets and recidciices of our village, and conversing with nearly every one. I made it my business to meet him. and find out who he was.

I’ugsloy elected l T- LOng 3â€" 'rrii: IVILI 01‘ inrxurnnancl. In thinking over the title ofthis essay, eel to six pages of foolscap in dealing with it. even in my simple way. "Tire Evils of Intemperance” is a subject < which, if ably recorded would fillla page . the length of which would cover this fair Dominion from the Atlantic to the Pacific. We will first look at this great evil as effecting the man who drinks 2 the poor diunkard himself. We meet a poor, miserable wreck of humanity, with shakâ€" ing limbs, which ofttinies refuse to perform their office. and have their owner lying on the street, or in the ditch; with blood-shot bytes from which uleams no ray of that intellect with which a kind Creator furnished him ; corrstitution ruined, character gene. family disgreCsd. nothing before him in this life but poverty. misery and dis- tress. And what are his prospects for another life '? that which never ends. When we read in God's word that stern decree. “No drunk-rd shall inherit the kingdom of heaven,” we find in that fiat :- sad anSWCl‘ to the question. Poor lost brother. for we cannot hide the fact that he is still our brother. May a loving Saviour call so loudly at the stronglyâ€" barred door of your heart, that through its hardened recesses the invitation may be heard.“Come unto me all ye that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest." Then think of the drunkard's family. Think of the wife whom he took from her parents’ home. and vowed to love and cherish till death ; tlrink of her in many cares toiling at the hardest kinds of labor for a scanty pittance, whereâ€" wrth to furnish food for her helpless family. while he, who should by the laws of nature be the "breadâ€"winner.” is ever on the watch to snatch what he can. (either by force or stratagent.) in order that his craving may be satisfied. Oh i think ofthe drunkard's wife. of the ill- words, curses and blows which are her portion,and which must fall with dcadli er farcewhcrr she thinks ofiiic different life she hoped for when she placed her hand in his and promised to be faithful till death. Poor heartâ€"broken sister ! may a pitiful Father help you to hear your L'ricrous burden through this life. and fit you for a brighter borne above, where 'Thc Evils of Internpcrancc" can never blight. and where you need not hang your head in shame as the drunkard’s wife. Let us now think of the drunkard's children. poor children whose home is the drunkard’s hcurc. Compare the home of happy children, that heaven of childhood, where the loving smiles and tender sympathies of a gentle mother soothe all their little troubles, and the firm counsel and helpful hand of a proud father is ever held out to them to preâ€" pare thrm for filling places of honor and usefulness in their path of lifc; compare this home. 1 repeat, with the so called home of the drunkard’s children. See them illâ€"clad, illâ€"fed. uncaied for mites of huinanitv, shunned and scorned by other children, hearing the loud whis- per. “Their father was drunk again last night and beat their mother ” See them when they can no longer hear the taunts and jeers on the streets, slink (id to this “burlesque” on the "Sweetest word in our lnnguatze.” See them creep softly in for fear that father is drunk again, and steal to their comfortless pallet, suppcrlcss, alas l glad to thus escape the blows and kicks ofa. drunken father. Poor little ones for whom Jesus died ; happy for you when in childhood you are called home by the same loving: voice, which many years ago spoke in tender accents the words, "Suffer the little children and forbid them not to come unto me for of such is the king- dam of heaven.” And now a word or two on this "Evil" as regards the country at large. Tire ablest Judges of Great Britain. our own and other countries, stale boldly the fact that nine out of every ten crimes are committed by persons who are inâ€" toxicated. The greatest physicians of our day assert that the habit of intoxiâ€" cation ruins body and mind. Then, in regards to financial facts. We have it on the best authority that in Great Britain alone, the sun of one hundred millions of pounds is spent annually on beer, wines and spirits, and we call on all intelligent people to con - firm the fact that ninetyâ€"nine per cent. of this money would have done as much good and infinitely less harm, if it had been thrown into the depths of the sea Had we space we might quote statinâ€" tics as regards jails, poorvlrouses, asyâ€" lums, &c , which would still further show this giant “evil” in all its hideousâ€" ness ; but we are limited to certain bounds, and must close. We might mention that in a paper of toâ€"day. we saw a statement made by the Archbishop of York. England. His Grace said that, if he had half of the amount spent upon intoxicating drink in the United Kingdom, he could buy with it half the rents in We are glad that England is aroused on this question. We rejoice that the United States is lifting up her voice. and crying shame on the accursed traflic. It brings still greater joy to our heart to know that our own Canada is stirred from ocean to ocean. and that this beâ€" loved Ontario. "Our own, our native is sending County after County to swell the triumphant army of noble men. who work for the restoration of the fallen, and that the "Infidel" quesâ€" tion of Cain is being answered by the voice ofthousands of christian to-day. “I am my brother’s keeper,” and we cannot shirk this responsibility. or lescape the consequences of refusing to honor and obey the Divine Command. “Thou shalt love thy neighbor as'thy- self.” Exostsroa. m No Harm In It.

Considerable “ calling" was done.â€" more than for many years, and coffee was the principal beverage. The Skating [link was well patronized in the after- noon, and the Firemen’s Concert took the crowd in the evening.

FIRE Corimsr MEETINGâ€"The regular irrerting of the Richmond Hill Fire Brigade was held in the Council Chamber on Friday evening last, and a large number of the members present. Minutes of the previous meeting were read and adopted. The Committee on the Entertainment on New Year's Night reported as follows :â€"-liceeipts 846.25 ; Expenses $26.45 ; Balance on handl $20.80. with some small sums to be collected. The report of the Committee was received rind adopted. This being the first regular meeting of the ycar,the election of officers for the ensuing year I was proceeded with and resulted as follows: Captain, J. H. Sanderson; Lieut, W. I’ugsley ; Sccy., H.

At the conclusion ot’tlre electron short and appropriate speeches were made by the officers It was moved, seconded and carried that a special meeting of the Brigade be held on Friday evening, 9th inst, to settle up the business of 1884 and to pay the men. The meet» ing then adjourned. Paoonssion AND CONCERT.â€"The Entertainment given by the Fire Briâ€" gade on New Year's Night wasa corn~ pletc success. The Brigade met at the Fire Hall for the Torchâ€"light Procession shortly after six o’clock. and headed by the Band, with the Engine, Hose Reel. and Hook & Ladder nicely decorated with wreaths, flags. Chinese lanterns,etc. There were about forty torches in the Company, and as the procession moved along Yonge Street, Sky Rockets, and Roman Candles flew through the air in all directions, and in several places a number of Bengal Lights were set on The sight was agrand one. and the street was crowded with spectators. all along the course of the procession. The Hotels and ,a number of private resi- dences were illuminated in honor of the occasion. After the procession a Con- cert was held in the Temperance Hall, which was filled to the doors, dozens of people having: to stand throughout the entire programme.“ ,Tlie whole enterâ€" tainment was provided by home talent, and was of considerable length, varied, and at times particularly interesting and very amusing. The second part of the programme consisted of the Irish Tutor in three acts, and greatly delighted the audience, the. principal characters being taken by Miss Bertha Wilson, Miss Maggie Keller, and Messrs W. A. Sand- erson, S Agar. and E Snider. Mrs G. Derry acted as accompanist in a pleas- ing manner.

SATISFIEDâ€"The Woodhrldne Coun- cil beng returned 'by acclamation on Nomination Day must be satisfactory to the members, as it tends to show that the ratepayers of the Municipality do not desire a change for the sake ofchange.

New YEAR‘S SERENADE.â€"- The New Year was ushered in, in this village, in the usual interesting manner. At a few minutes to twelve o'clock the Methodist Church bell tolled out the old and rang in the new year, and the Band formed in procession, struck up a lively tune, and marched to the residence of our Reeve elected,l\lr. W‘ H. l’ngslev,where they were invited in and courteously treated. Alter lowing the Reeve’s residence, the boys serenaded the old and new Council, together with most of the prominent citizons, and in nearly leverv place they were invited in to partake of refreshments or made a nice pier-cut in the shape of money, which will, no doubt. ably assist the funds of the Band. and as the boys are at con-- siderable expense and have made no tie-- nmnds lately on the public, they will know how to use the money judiciously. The Serenade was kept Up until 11 am, the receipts amounting to ovar 840 WILL BE PnnLisucn.â€"â€"We learn that it has been decided to publish in, book form a full and complete report. ufl the proceedings of the great Liberal Conservative Convention, and also of the Harquet to the Right Hon.
