The public will be pleased to see by the posters and by an advertisement elsewhere in this issue that the heirs of the Crandell estate are throwing a large portion of that valuable property on the market and that the same will be offered for sale by auction at the Town Hall in Port Perry, on Saturday the 8th day of May next. In u town like Port Perry, whero every foot of available property is eagerly sought after and where people are more anxious to buy than to sell, such an opportunity as the present of securing valuable lots suitable for al!, will be regarded with much favor and parties will be pleased that so desirable an opportunity is thus presented, such an op- portunity as may npever again be offered the immigrant course cannot our country by from locating ily pour their lation rm rerroees ~ Spring Show. i The Reach, Port Perry and Scu- 4 gog Agricultural Society held their Spring show for 1880 at Manchester on Tuesday, 27th inst, the roads were unfavorable and the weather about as cold as December, but still he show may be sot down as u suc- coss in all the chief features of such shows. A large and intelli- gent gathering of people from Reach and the surrounding municipalities had turned out to witness the ex- hibition and belp to make the show a success. Oue of the principal de- signs of such shows is to create and foster a laudable rivalry in the securing of and exhibiting superi- or stock animals and thus encourag- ing and facilitating the rearing of such stock as are always found to be most profitable and advantageous not only to the breeder but to the country at large. The encourage- mont of an enlightened competition in the manufacture of agricultural machines and implements is another prime motive for the maintenance and encourngement of such shows and in these main features the show of Tuesday last may be regarded as a decided success and most credit- able to all concerned. In the matter of machines and implements we certainly had the best display ever seen in this sectiou of country as well for the extent of the show as for the superiority of the articles shown, the very best implements and machines to bo found in the Dominion, aye, or out of it were exhibited here. In the department of machines we have the Brown & Patterson Manufacturing Coy o:cupying the foremost place in the froot rank.

It is the very thing for the purpose and is not expensive. The show of stock animals was no less encouraging and satisfactory than that of machines and implements; and no better proof could be given of the vitality of out township thau the very superior exhibition of really first-class stock borses and cattle. In the class blood stallions, Elliott's Bymen was regarded with much favor, he never be- foro showed as well as he does now, he is a perfect picture and just such a picture as firmers should secure stock from. In the heavy dianght, Dumfriesshire Jock was & universal favorite, aud he certainly deserved atl the praise given him ; nothing in the impor fed draught stallious could ap- proach him, The Canadian draught stallions were well represented. In the general purpose stallions there was a goed show. Amongst the six entries for saddle and carriage stallions we were not a little sur- prised that Aurora Chief did not carry off the first prize as he is doubtless the Lest horse 1n the pack ; of course all judges go ou points and give their decision according ly and outsiders have no right to complaim but we are very much mistaken if the stock of the Chief do not distance that of eithe of the other horses. The general purpose teams were beauties, ill have to go far to find a tewn lice one wi that of Mr. Wm. Coates' which cairied off the first prize. The show of. single drivers was really grand, some 14 horses all of which ove would suppose deserved a first prize. It was | generally expected that Mr. B. McQuay's | handsome driver would bave come out with the red ticket but the judges ordered it other- | wise, of course Judges occupy a position off which outsiders know nothing. | In the class Gen.

Mr. A. Earchinan's 2 year old Durham milch cow carried off the first prize and she deserved it Mr, Wm. Real showed some beauties in the grade class, which carried ull | before them. As might be expected Manchester was in its thorough business trim and everything went lively. There are but few places in the Province where business is conducted as il able and those who have proved their value by using them are enthusiastic in their praise, ¢ Mr. Hall,of Port Perry, showed the Maxwell Reaper. This machine looks well but it is little known in this locality. Green, Bros & Co, Waterford. Ont, had one of their Royal Reapers on the ground but it was not entered for competition. This isad 1 hin and poss- esses many points of superiority, the applica. tion of the power is simple and eftuctive working to great advantage.

Our dear Grit cotems appear to have en- tered on a crusade against Canada and are doing their best to belittle it in every pos- sil le way. Not even a tramp can leave our borders to seek an asylum with brother Jonathan but the howl is raised of a general stampede from Canada to the United States. The other day no fewer gan three hunded of the intelligent and enterprising iuhabis tants of the Eastern States passed through Montreal on their way to the great North- West, Canada's fu ure home for miliions ut earth's best and bravest sons. There were twelve first-class cars on the regular train, and it was found pecessury to desp ich a special of sixteen cars afterwards. There were over four humidred pieces of bonded baggage. The passcugors were all of the better cluss und take capital with then.

The case was conclided lust week as will be seen from the following taken from the Star, The night editor of the Montreal Gazette has no very exalted opinion of the veracity of the police force of that city, and that Joe lost his ruit. At the session of the Court of Quuen's Beach Charles E Roche, night editor of the Gazette, testified that the information reecived from the sergeants of police was worthless, that he had been deceived several times by them§ and under no circumstances would be be- lieve their statements unless supported by other testimony.
