Saturday, Sept’r 26th, 1885. The Central Exhibition. The central exhibition, under the auspices of the South Victoria Agricul- tural ..0cicty, was held in Lindsay on Tuesday. \\’ednesday and Thursday of this week ; and as the weather was fa- vorable, though the second day was un- pleasautly cold and windy, an immense crowd was present. According to the secretary's books the entries this year were about 2,700, being some 400 more than in 1884; and, therefore, it is prob- able that the exhibits were more numer- ous this season than last, though the difference was not sufficient to strike those who visited the two shows. The chief improvement we noticed was in poultry, there being many more coops there than there were last year, though they were not so numerous as in 1883. There were plenty of horses of all kllldi except thorough-breds, which are rather scarce in this locality, and the heavy draUght animals, the carriage teams and the trottcrs attracted much uttcir tion and were greatly admired, especial ly the. latter, without which an agricul- tural show would, in these first days, be likely to prove a failure. Of the stalls devoted to cattle about a dozen were occupied by the polled Angus bulls, cows and heifers from Boyd & Co.’s Big Island farm, respecting the merits of which there appears to be a wide divergence of opinion. The Durham, Devon and Ayrshire breeds were all fairly represented, and amongst the lat- ter was a milch cow only two years old. and not much over three feet high. which her owner said would fill a pail twice a day. The sheep and pigs were not particularly numerous; indeed we. have seen nearly or quite as many at township shows; but the occupants of some of the pens were very fine animals possessing great personal attractions and unimpeachablc pedigrees. In the spacious hull there was the usual bewildering display of the hun- dreds of articles that have to be shown under cover; the exhibits being so nu- merous that we suspect that the increase of entries over last year must have been nearly all for the “ indoor department," as it is called. During the afternoon of Wednesday the building was so crowded that it was a tight squeeze to get either in or out, and acquaintances who met had to exchange greetings by signals, as the noise of the rival pianos and organs, which were being played to their fullest capacity, made conversation impossible to persons with ordinary lungs. Under the shed on the west side of the agricultural hall was a row of beau- tifully finished carriages from the dif- ferent Lindsay factories, and a. dozen or more of almost equally beautiful wagons were arranged on the open ground, where there was also it grand display of agricultural implements of various kinds. One of these was a bind- er, which was driven by a steam engine. and, being fed with the necessary raw material, turned out artistically bound sheaves at a great rate. Scattered over the ground were several booths for the sole of refreshments, and two or three showmen find tents erected, in which were to be seen various wonders of na- ture and art. During part of each day the Lindsay brass band was present. and enlivened the proceedings with various musical selections. Taken as a whole, this year's central exhibition was about equal to its pro- decessors, being, as far as we could. lIIlDSPl‘I’ 'II if: JACKSON, ARRISTERS, SOLICITORS, the. 0f- fice, William street, Lindsay.

His style is clear. forcible and iattractire, and as a Sample of it we give the following extract from the in- troduction to his new work 'â€" " There is something in the very name of Protection that. ought to make wurkiugmen cautious of accepting any- thiiig presented to them under it. The protection of the masses has in all times been the pretence of tyrannyâ€"the plea i of monarchy. of aristocracy, of special ’ privilege of every kind. The slave own- .ers justified slavery as protecting thel lslaves. British misrule in Ireland isl upheld on the ground that it is for the l l protection of the Irish. But whether under a monarch]. or under a republic, there never has; been an instance in the history of the world in which the pro- 1 tection of the labouring masses has not l meant their oppression. The protec- l tion which those who have got the law making power into their hands have given to labor has, at best. always been the protection that man gives to cattle. IIe protects them that he may use and eat them. There runs through Protectionist professions of concern for labour a tone of condescending patronage more insult- ing to men who feel the true dignity of labour than frankly expressed contempt could bcâ€"zin assumption that pauperism is the natural condition of labour. to I I l l y l l i l l l , $25 went for expenses. l which it must everywhere fall unless bencvolently protected. It is never in- timated that. the land-owner or the cap- italist needs Protection. They, it is always assumed, could take care of themselves. It is only the poor, help~ less workingman who must be provided with employment lest he should starve. What is labour that it should so need protection ? Is not labour the creator of capital. the producer of all wealth? Is it not the men who labour who feed and clothe all other orders of men ? Is it not true, as has been said, that the three great orders of society are “ workingmcn, beggarmcu, and thieves?" How, then, does it come that \vorkingmcn alone should need Protection ? When the first man eiiuie upon the earth, who was there to pro- tect him or to provide him with employ- ment ? Yet he manang to get a living and raise a famin ? I When WP- considcr that labour is the producer of all Wealth, is it not evident that the impoverishment and depend ence of labour are abnormal conditions resulting from restrictions and usurpa- tions, and that instead of acCepting Protection, what labour should demand is freedom ? That those who advocate any extension of freedom choose to go no further than suits their own special purpose is no reason why freedom should be distrusted. For years it was held that the assertion of our Declaration of Independence that all men are created equal and endowed by their Creator with inalienable rights, applied only to white men and to more political rights. But this in no wise vitintcd the principle. And So, that freedom of trade has been advocated by those who have no sympathy with labour should not preju- dice us against it. The road to the industrial as to the political emancipa- tion of the masses must be that of freedom." Somerville Council Meeting.

CREDIT SALEâ€"Last week we print- ed u number of p0sters announcing an auction sale of .‘Ir. Gilbert Anderson's household furniture, &c., on Thursday next, October lst. As Mr. Anderson is going to the old country, it was pub» lislicd as a cash sale; but, in considcra~ tion of the present scarcity of money, he has decided to give six months‘ credit. on all purohases over ten dollars, if payment is secured by approved joint notes. ‘ Aiv ACCEPTABLE PRESENT.â€"â€"Last Monday our old friend, Mr. Win. Powles, of Fenelon, sent us by one of his sons half a bushel or more of splen- did large red apples of the Alexandria variety, and, as we are particularly fond of fruit of all kinds, the present was a very acceptable one. The apples are best for cooking, but the two or three that were eaten as soon as they arrchd were pronounced so good that it reâ€" quired considerable sell denial to save the others to put into pics. A NEW SIDEWALKâ€"Tlie sidewalk which terminates at the post-office is, we are glad to learn, to be continued to the bridge across the locks, and on Fri- day morning Mr. Jacket commenced laying a stone foundation for the cxtcn- sinn, as the ground is rather low. We have been requested to suggest that, before the corporation work is finished for the season, a good substantial cross- in: be built. from the post-office to the other side of the main street, as one is badly needed at that spot, the nearest being a considerable distance further north. A PETRIl-‘ACTION.â€" After a blast had been fired, a few days ago, at the pulp mill, where a water pipe is being sunk, a strange looking petrifaction was found fitted into a receptacle in a mass of rock. It. is cylindrical, about five inch- es long, an inch and a half in diameter at one end and somewhat smaller at the other. Some who have seen it think it is part of a snake or an eel, and nobody can prove that they are wrong. The specimen was unfortunately broken at both ends by the blast, and, as no other fragment could be found, its entire length is a matter of conjecture, and there is neither head nor tail to show that is a portion of what was once it living creature. Tun PULP Minnâ€"Attracted by the sound of dynamite explosions at. the pulp mill the other day, we went down to see what was going on, and found some men at work blasting out it chan- nel or trench in which to bury the iron pipes which convey water from Cameron Lake to the mill. When the pipes, which aggregate about two hundred feet in length, were first put. down, the lake was so bigli that they had to be laid too near the surface, which made a great deal of pumping necessary; but advantage is now being taken of the lowuess of the water to sink them to a depth of about five feet. While at the mill Mr. Burgoyne showed us a Northey steam pump, lately put in. to be used in case of fire. Acouimodious work- shop has also been built on the south side of the mill, and in it is an im- proved grnin-crushcr, which will be driven by steam, and through which all the grain used by the company’s horses is to be paSSed. Cholera Panic in Italy. ROME, Sept. 2l.â€"'I‘lierc is a cholera panic at Palermo. .‘Iany inhabitants have fled to the interior of the Island, where there have been in many villages riots against the new arrivals. The people are beginning in some places to tear up the rails to prevent Palermo travellers from coming. At Trapani a mob of fishermen and artisans burned the railway station yesterday. Reports from Palermo today show a “ distressing state of affairs , 30,000 per- sons have fled from the city. All the shops are closed, the streets are almost deserted, and there i.- great scarcity of food and water. The epidemic is in- creasing with frightful rapidity. Sno- itary officials are attacked by the people every time they attempt to disinfect the houses where disease prevails, and meet with great difficulty in carrying on their work. King Humbert has sent : despatch to Palermo expressing great sympathy for the suffering people. He also rent 8l0.000 to be distributed among them. He places bis Villa Favouritn at the disposal of the sufferers, and exhorts ithe people to show their courage and Calmness during the trying ordeal thro' which they are pas-inc.

The hospital accommodation is entirely in- adequate. as many applicants had to be sent back to their homes within the past few days for want of room. \VASIIINGTON. Sept. 19th.â€"In order that no precaution shall be neglected to guard against the introduction of smallpox into the United States from Canadian pmts, the treasury depart~ ment has issued special instructions to the commanding officers of all revenue =teamers on the New England coast and the lakes to speuk to all vessels coming from infected ports and to prevent the landing in the United States of all that do not show clean bills of health. Encounter With a Maskiiionge. Mr. J. J. B. Flint, P. M., accom- panied a party to Hay Bay for maski- nougc fishing. While alone yesterday in a small boat. Mr. Flint became fast to a very large fish. Immediately after being struck the fish hurled himself into the air. jumping clear of the water by two or three feet. After playing him for some time, Mr. Flint safely landed him in the boat and threw him- self on the fish, and here the fight oom- menccd. The fiin proved too powerful to be kept in the boat and uobly fought for freedom. Six of the hooks Were fast in the fish’s mouth, and six in Mr. Flint's clothing. By a powerful effort the fiin threw himself clear of the boat, forcing Mr. Flint on the side of the boat (which began rapidly to fill). with one arm in the water. Mr. Flint would have been dragged into the water and the boat upturned, but at this instant the strong copper wire broke, and the fish escaped with the hooks and part of the wire, leaving the remaining six Flint describes the fish as one of the largest he had seen, and says it was far stronger than himself. Had not. the wire broken, Mr. Flint would undoubt- edly have been forced into the water and drowned, us he was so entangled with hooks, line and fish that he could not have escaped. As it was, so cx- haustiug was the fight that he did not get over the effects for hours. Owing to heavy underclothing he escaped laceration by the books, but as General Davies, of the U. S. Army, who was fishing close at hand and witnessed the struggle, said, he was “ badly wrecked," his clothing being very much torn.â€" Bt’ffCUfllG Intelliyenccr. 3-9 A Difficult Problem. Ten hours per day, six days per, week, the seventh devoted to the service of the Almighty, thus it is that three- fourths of the workers in our larger cities and towns are supposed to dis- tribute their time. A hard day’s toil must be followed by a long night's rest, and the wooded mechanic, artisan or laborer finds little time to enjoy those sweets of life which recreation alone can place within his reach. With more grain than the world can consume be- fore the next harvest, with over-produc- tion of sugars and other necessaries of life, with markets overstocked with all kinds of manufactured goods, it does seem hard that the toilcrs must thus plod through their work frotn Monday morning to Saturday night with source an hour of relaxation. How long is this state of things to continue '8 This is 11 question more easily asked than answered. The acreage now under cul- tivntion in the world is, according to population, nearly double that of forty years ago. Steam and machinery have, under the direction of man, Increased the manufacturing power of inankiiid' more than tenfold. And yet society, frotu the banker down to the bod-carri- er, finds it more difficult in these days of high pressure to earn what they re- spectively deem a competence than dial our sires or grand sires. Periods of brisk trade and factories shut down. Is there a remedy for this anomalous con- dition of the world ? There is, but it will be many, many years before selfish man will be brought to realize it. We have on increased acreage under culii- ‘ vation, and an increased power to pro- duce manufactured goods, but human beings have gained nothing thereby. Greed of gain spurs each man in his, special vocation, and over-production is the irrevociilile consequence. The law of exchange is entirely overlooked, and men are at times forced to work beyond 1 the limit of human endurance, and then forced to idle away their time in order that the food or other materials thus is, the hours of labor are now out ofi proportion to the needs of society, and : until these are shortened we cannot ‘ hope to see the products of the factory, field and mine consumed within a na- sonabio period from the time of their production. Short hours of labor, re- duced production, fair wages, and rapid l exchange, would give to the world that prosperity which is even now within its reach; short hours would give to the inechnnio and laborer that leisure which ) humanity and Christianity demand f that they shall have. With short. hours, i the mechanic and laborer would be ; physically, mentally and morally, better men, and the work they perform would , be better done. Reduced production ; would prevent the fluctuations in trade , which are now' crippling commerce and handicapping enterprise. Good wages. while not lessening the fair profits ofé the capitalists, would enable the work- ing classes to live more comfortably ; and nuke an ample provision for mnin- , tennooe in declining years. Rapid ex- change would keep business in a normal , condition and ennble those engaged in , it to follow it with more certainty that _ honesty and industry would bring their i just rewards. -â€"Luutfwi Justice. ‘ l i i 4 l i i l i hooks fast in Mr. Flint’s clothing. M Resenting French Domination. There are symptoms of a break in the ranks of the Out-riu Tories owing to the continued truckling ofthe Ottawa administration to French-Canadian iu- fluences. The Orangcineu of Kingston, at a mass meeting held on Saturday. repudiated connection with any political party. and pledged themselves in future to act unitcdly it: politics to secure their special interests. There have not been wanting other ninuifbstations of dissatisfaction on the part of individuals who have hitherto been strong support- ers of Sir John. The trouble is that there has been so tuuch of this kind of talking and resolving before, which has ended in talk and led up to nothing, that it is very difiicult to believe that the kickers really mean business. The man who “ never will cast another Tory vote as long as he lives" is by no means an infrequent figure in politics. He gen‘ erally remains in this state of mind un- til about three days before election. when he wheels into line and Works like a beaver for his party to make up for lost time. For this reason it is well to receive reports of the intentions of indi. viduals or associations to break with the party on the ground of the Riel rc- priero with some caution. Possibly the rccalcitrauts mean what they say at the time, but in the heat of a campaign temporary irritations are soon forgotten. We would like to we a strong popular movement which would unite the people of Ontario to a man against French dimiinatiou. It will come some day or else the country will be ruined by the blackmailing of the French traffickers in votes. But. We cannot shut our eyes to the fact that hitherto the disposition to put party before country, has induced the people of Ontario to submit tuitier to bc plun- dered, insulted and brow-beaten by im- pudent Frcncluncn, and that both par- ties sccm to vie with each other in thc abject.
