Strangers and visitors: who put up at our hotels and only pass through the hu-iot-ss portion of the village. where adults most do congregate, will possibly see but few indications of our coming greatness ; but let them take a walk any line evening along the streets on which our dwellings are erected, and they will find that they must take heed t: their steps if they would avoid “Wild- in: on the ri~ing generation.

Where the customers to support thetn are to come from is another question ; but it is one which we have very little doubt \\'ill be answered satisfactorily. The means ofdoing business causes business te be done ; and with larger and better stocks of goods than could be kept in the little wooden buildings swept away by the late lire, there will be greater inducements to the people of the. vicini- ty to purchase, their supplies hch in‘ stead of going further and possibly lar- ing worse. We have always maintained that Fetielon Falls is: fit enough from Lindsay to become. a place of consider~ able importance, and it is progressing onward and upward, though its pro. gress is certainly rather jerky.
