Should the tine weather of the present week continue, allowing formers in llii.i distiict to tiiiish up their harveKt, the directors of the Eaut Giey exhiiiition confidently look forward to one of the btst exhibitions, on Thursday and Fri- ilay (if next week, that has ever been held in ihifl county. The season is very backward this year and the exhibition somewhat earlier than on former years, liut with «oi>d weather everything slmuld work nicely. There will bo a lacrosse match on the afternoon of the first day, between Shulburne and Markdale clubs, which will, no doubt, attract a large crowd, and the tine prizes for speeding will bring out .^omu good horses and con seijUfUtly make a good afternoon's sport on the second day. The track is in piitne condition for sport antl pleasure, and will be i,uite a surprise to those who knew it in its old condition.
