The Fall Business Campaign is just being entered upon, the armor is burnished, the ship is trimmed, the decks cleared and parties wait the result with some anxiety and would fain peer into the future. If coming events always cast their shadows before, and if the b always d in di i with the shadow we may look forward with confidence to a rushing fall trade. Itis true that there are scveral rather dark looking clouds hovering around the mercantile hori- "son, but they are rapidly shifting and will doubtless be of short duration. The whole- sale, headlong failures in New York have come at' an awkward time and in ugly pro- 'portions ; but ten fo one this crisis will fol. low the usual adage: "The hotter war the sooner peace," They will have a general Jubilee of suspensions and then settle down to their work. The banking house of Jay, Cooke, & Co., New York, set the example by closing its doors on the 17th inst. This suspension within the two following days was followed by twenty-two business firms of note and some three or four Banks, until the word "suspension" became the almost universal battle ciy throughout the entire 'business section of that great city ; suspen- gions increased until by noon on the 20th when Wall street became a perfect financial Pandemonium : the roaring of the "lulls" . and the grinning of the bears" rendered the day hideous, and cast completely into the shade all similar excitements since the © famous '57. The maddencd, furious specu- . Iators both "bulls" and " bears," had to Le forced from the Btock Exchange and the "doors locked. "The attention of the Executive (being di~ . rected to the financial delirium of Wall St., which was rapidly affecting the entire busi- 'mess of the city and as rapidly extending "to other cities, President Grant and Richard- son, the Secretary of the Treasury, hastened "to New York with a view to restoring order, Mf possible creating confidence at the busi- ness ¢ .

In passing up the line between the 8th and 9th concessions we came to the fine property of the worthy Reave of the township, W. 8. Sex- ton, Xsq. This property contains one thousand acres all in one block, the greater part of which is cleared; there may Le about 300 acres still unger bush, a large portion of which is timbered with as fine hard- wood as one could wish tosce.

This water by a little trou- ble 1s conducted by pipes fo the house and made to do duty in a va- rioty of ways. Ilere it is pouring its never ceasing crystal stream from a spout for the use of the house; there it is running bright and clear for the use of the stock, and again it is conducted into tho diary for cool ing the milk and other purposes; and when used passes out by other pipes and is carried away in one continu- ous stream. It required consider- able ingenuity and no little expense to bring this property into its pre- sent complete state; but the enter prising owner did with this as he does with all his other business, first making it right and then going ahead. Everything here is now complete and can bo driven with little cost or labor ; a large quantity of first class butter is being hurried out covery week.

S-- South Ontario Exhibition for 1873. The above exhibition was held on Whitby on Wednesday and Thurs- day the 17tb aud 18th inst. Through the generosity of the rail. way Company trains run at half fare from Port Perry and the interme- diate stations during the show. On Thursday morning wein com- mon with many others, sought our way .to the County Town. A very large number embarked atPortPerry but the number was vastly increased as we passed from station to station. At Prince Albert a large number came aboard; Manchester gave its quoto and as we passed -along the extensive accommodation provided came all to be required. The wind was just right for giving those in the open cars a proper dose and as we saw thom battered and pelted with charcoal, soot and ashes, it brought to our mind a prediction in the Big Book which says: Snares, fire and brimstone, furious storms on the wicked he shall rain." Barring the "pmnares" the yest of the prediction was fulfilled to the very letter (the Commissioner of Private Works was taking it.) After a splended run the iron horse whistled 500 of us good morning at the Whitby the Sta- tion. The morning was charming and this uniformly tidy town look- ed unusually spry, the multitudes of strangers hurrying hither and thith- er.

Carmichael, of Brock, showed in the single driving class but was barred from competing as he did mot put in an appearance on the first day. His is a handsome] stopping animal. Mr. Wm. Heard's 8 year old filly took prize in the Saddle or Car- riage class. The show of Cattle was very su- perior, some of the finest anfmals in the province being present. There were more Durhams shown than all the other breeds taken together. It was worth going all the way were it only to see the two herds of Short- Horns, that owned by Miller and that owned by Birrell & Johnston; there are some 17 or 18 head in each herd. The show of Sheep was very fine, about 120 in all. . Togs were either precious scarce, or we could not find them all. The Floral IIall was highly cre- ditablo to the good taste and indus- try of the fair exhibitors. In enter- ing the Tall to the right thedisplay of Berlin wool work was liberal and very fino. The Fine Arts department was examined with great interest but no part of it so much admired as that occupied by tho works of Miss BE. Hodgins; her works were uni- versally admired, and they deserve it. The portraits of Major Hodgins aud his two danghters Jons of them tho artiste herself] taken by this talented young artiste would do credit to the pencil oi our best pro fessional artists, The likenesses were very striking, especially that of the Major--we are not familiar with the appearance of the young ladies.-- Her other works were very fine in- deed. Miss IMurnden's "Windsor Castle" is a superior drawing for an amateur, : The show of Fruit was most abun- dant and very good. In the more useful department of Blankets, Quilts, Coverlets, Rag Works, and all sorts of Sewing and making up garments, the display was superior. There was a liberal show of Car- riages. Mr. O'Donovan's factory fully sustained its well merited ro- putation by sweeping off first prizes in all the classes, of Oshawa Carriage Factory, showed some fine carriages.

Mr. Bambridge As the marketing season advances the members of the Port Perry Corn Exchangé are rapidly mustering for business. The members so far in attendance are Messrs. Currie, Gor- don, Ross, Shaw, and Worthington. Everything promises the largest, most active and prosperous market ever seen in this locality, for all kinds of grain and other farm pro- duce. The business done frow "is chiefly in Barley, and of that large quanti- ties aro coming in daily. Thou. saads of bushels have been brought in here each day on an average dur- ing the past week, at prices varying from $1.05 to 90c per bushel. Of conrse every kind of grain and other produce meet with a ready and pro- fitable market. A considerable quantity of wheat with a fair pro- portion of Oats and Hay daily find their way to our market. The large: ly increased storage capacity here together with the facilities for for- warding afforded by the railway, ensures accommodatioo for all grain that may be offered. Since our last the price of Barley has fluctulated very mnch prices varying no loss than 16c. on the bushel. The Money crisis in the States is accountable for this fluctua tion, but one thing is certain that the highest cent which the market will allow will always be given at Port Perry for grain and all other produce. A Puzzle. A paragraph has been going tho rounds of the Toronto daily press of the 23rd inst. to the effect that Mr. Fowler had been at Port Perry on that day consulting with some of the prominent men of the village respect- ing the construction of the projected ,Bow- manville and Georgian Bay Railway, pro- posing to bring said road by Port Perry, Ip order to evaporate the scheme a meeting is te be held here on Friday evening.

The moro the better, wherever our facilities are equal to those of outsiders we are glad to meet them in a fair field of compe- tion, and if they carvoff tho prizes it serves us right for allowing them to beat us. But there undoubtedly are more than one department in which our more southern friends have greater facilities than we have in the North Riding. However we ex pact to see this a grand show at Ux- ridge at this time. : The North Brock Agricultural Society's Show will be held at Can- nington on Thursday 2nd inst.-- This will be the first show held b this society and every effort will doubtless be put fourth to make it completely successful.
