1f there be one 1endancy of the -publicmind more to be regreted than another it is that morbid, vicious for pmient mental nutriment, acious appetite for the ex- the marvelous without much of the humbug may be mixed 'with the -rubbish they so greedly swallow. Bt like every other evil propensity could not exist un less it were fed and the misfortune is * that thereis in our midstand in all communities a certain class who in order to secure a supposed personal advantage will outrage every feel- ing of decency and moralty and pan- 'der to this morbid appitite of those whose inclinations ought to be cur- bed instead of being fostered and epcouraged. : There is, in some localities an almost continuous stream i . sickening, filthy details of crime in every form from the street 'corner row up--or rather down--through all the calendar of crime, robbery, outrage and murder, until the minds of that very portion of the community from whom all such communications ought to be carefully concealed--the youthful and inexperienced--become famil- iarized, nay, thoroughly educated in all the details of the most revolting crimes, and such familiarity is far on the road to commission. 'We are led into these remarks by an unfortunate mal-adventure which transpired in this locality on the Tuesday night of last week. A number of foolish, thoughtless and, if the charge laid against them be true-- i wicked youths fell in with a young girl, a tures which would do credit to any stranger in the locality, and according to town or city in the province. The information lodged by her father with T. C. Forman, Eeq., abused her in the most shame- |). already raised and: the 'num- ful manner. The magistrate at once issued warrants for the arrest of the parties com- plained of.

'We attended and took a full report of the trial for the first two days but from the na- ture of the evidence and other circumstances we did not procced further, and as#or the evidence we did take we would mot insult our readers with it.

N.O. E.D. Agricultural Society. The annual Show of the above Society was held on the Uxbridge Show Grounds on Tuesday and Wednesday of last week. The earlier part of tho first day looked suspicious but as the day advanced the weather brightened up and the latter portion of the first and all the second day was most magnificent. In passing along towards Ux bridge on the morning of the second day it was easy to perceive from the rush of vehicles of every descrip- tion that that was to be a big day at the show, On arriving at the. village the streets exhibited one mass of active life gliding hither and thither.-- Already the generous stable accom- modation was protty well packed and parities were rushing around secking accommodation for their liorses. The village of Uxbridge is one of those active growing centres which-give character to this rapidly advancing province. One has only to cast a retrospective glance at the Uxbrige of four years ago in order to realiz¢ something of the gigantic stridvs she has made on her onward march ; the Uxbridge of that day { bears little or no comparison with that of the present. The small wooden buildings of that day have given place to handseme brick strue- large number of splendid brick ber still going up are indicative of the prosperous future of this excel- its foundations deep and wide and pressing on towards a prominent position among the towns of Canada. The large number of superior busi- superior hotel accommodation few if any town in the Provivce can ap- proach to it. . The new Show Grounds are con- venient to the village and in a good loeation,and when brought into pro- per condition will prove to be ex- cellent grounds. The shed is by no means large enough but it is the in- tention of the enterprising proprie. tor to add to its size very materially before next show. er; in the province were present and had some splendid animals on the ground; but they were 'very far from gotting it all their own way; in the chief part of the show--the 2|real stock animals--the thorough bred aged Bull and Milch Cow, Mr. Joseph Moffat, of Reach, carried off the first jprize for each. It would be a difficult matter, in fact we do not believe that there is a better bull in the Dominion than Mr. Mof- fat's imported thorough-bred bull " Statesman" ; ho is 4 years old and his stock are the best that can be seed. Mr. Moffat's imported thorough bred "Dolly" is a choice animal, she would be hard to beat. Tis thorough-bred bull Calf took the 1st was sold to W. S. Sexton, Esq., at a handsome figure. Mr. Moffatt may be regarded as one of our most successful and skilled breeders and his stock is sought after by our best and most careful farmers. His Dar- ham cattle took five prizes at this show. Mr. James Graham showed some excellent Durham Cattle, he tuok three prizes for his Durhams. Mr. Brabazon showed a noble 2 year old Durham Bull--he weighs 2,000 .1bs. T. Coates' 1 year old Durham Bull is a good animal, it took a first prize. In the class Sheep there were some fine specimens. Mr. James Graham showed some beauties.-- He took six prizes on his sheep and three of them were 1st prizes. Mr. Pascoe is a succossful sheep breeder; he took four prizes on his sheep. The show of Pigs was not large, but it was good. Mr. Stilwell was the principal exhibitor. He showed an excellent Boar which took the 1st prize and Mr. McMillan bought it before it left the ground. The Port Perry Brass Baud did themselves credit, and afforded much pleasure to the throng by their abundant supply of choice music. The Officers. Directors and all concerned have much cause for con- gratulating the socioty on the splen- did success which attended the show. There were close on 1,300 entries-- $540 were taken at the gate and the Concert cleared between $70 and $80. pt A Ap Agricultural Show, The North Brock Agricultural Society held their first show at Can- nington, on Thursday 2nd inst.-- This was decidedly one of the finest days of the.season, bright and plea- sant. On arriving at Cannington we were pleased to find the village & ded with exhibitors and others from all parts of Brock and neigh- boring townships.

Domestic Manufactures were well represented ; if not very extensive in quantity, everything was in choice quality. The Ladies' Department was cap- ital. In themore useful department of it Miss Kidd, Miss Nichols and Miss M. J. Hodge were the success-- ful competitors. : In the class Implements Mr, Con- boy showed some excellent Buggies and Cutters which were much ad- mired. Mr Oliver of Sunderland showed a beauty of a eutter. Mr. A. Watson of Saintfield show- ed a splendid Wagon which carried off a first prize. "Brown & Patterson's Reapers and Mowers, Straw Cutters. and other implements are justly and almost universally regarded the best of their kind. The Paxton, Tate & Co's Gang Plows were much praised by all who had used them, and they are fast coming into general use. In live stock the show being open to the Dominion secured some of the best animals to be found any where. . In the class Horses there were J. B. Forsyth distanced all in the blood class. Of 25 Single Drivers Mr. D. Carmichel's took the 2nd pre. Bentjoy's imported draught Stallion took the first. He is really | fine animal and his Colts are his recommendation. They looked when showing with othor which will ere Jong be developed to such an extent as will add vastly to the prosperity of the village and the advantage of all tho surrounding community. There are but few localities in the Province "where the beneficent hand of nature has sown her gifts more liberally or offered a better reward to persevering ef- fort. The Cannington Brass Band was discoursing rome choice music.-- This Band has long been held in high and well merited esteem, not by the villagers alone but by the whole of North Ontario and in all other places in which they, are known. The Agricultural Implements were exhibited outside of the shed. Amongst the Implements chiefly noticed and most favorably spoken of were Straw Cutters from Brown & Patterson's works, Whitby; Al- lin's Gang Plows, Beaverton Foun- dry ; Wagons from the works of Mr. Allin, Derryville; wagons from Clift's works, Cannington. Harman & Umphrey's Fanning Mills from their shop at Uxbridge. Blan- chard's Patent Churn was also well spoken of. There was a liberal sup- ply of Plows on show. ' The show of Fowls was unusually fine, Mr. Ross' Brahamas and Silver Spangled Hamburgs were superior birds. On entering the Floral Hall one is surprised at the extent ana qual- ity of the show, il would Lave done credit to a county, the large drill shed was filled with a choice display of just such articles as parties like to see; and the fair ones to whose energy and superior skill the Floral Hall was so much indebted -for its grand display, have done themselves the highest credit, laid the society under an obligation and added another to the many proofs already given of the intelligence and indus- 4ry of the active mothers and fair '| daughters of that prosperous town- ship. : prize and before it left the grounds' HORSES.

The township of Brock Agricultural So- ciety held their annual show at Sunderland, on Tuesday, 7th inst. October |favored them with ond of her finest days--cool, but bright and clean, 4 From nn early hour in {the morning this active village was all astir, and already it was not difficult from appearances to predict that thej show would be a success. The Floral Hall was being rapidly plenished with a generous supply of choice articles and the live stock and implements were rapidly airiving. By nine a. m. the exten- sive stable accommodations if not all the yards, were already taken up and the accom- modations furnished by these two excellent The officers and directors were early at their posts and the energetic Secretary had every- thing in trim for setting on the judges in good time. The large town hall appeared to great advantage, well filled as it was with specimens cf the finest descriptions of arti- cles usually shown on such occasions. While the judges were at work in the Floral Hall the ladies occupied their time in shopping and busy merchants and their clerks were kept flying around. Mr. Wm. Gordon has opened out in his new store in Porritt's block and his extensive stock of choice goods make a capital ay. Mr. J W Parrish is moving his Stove and Tinsmithing also into this block, Mr. C Huckins will also move his business to this fine block so soon as his store is finished. The show in the Floral Hall was highly creditable to the ingenuity and industry of | the numerous exhibitors. The handy work of the ladies is deserving of all praise, and if we are to judge from the generous display of the more comfortable and useful portions of the ladies work we may look out for a somewhat severe winter. The display of Quilts, Coverlets, Blankets and otber winter comforts was grand. We do not remember of having seen as good a show of butter at any other fair as well for quality as quantity, but our space won't permit us to enlarge.-- We cannot, however, pass over the pannel doors and sash of Mr. John Thompson of the Vallentyne Sash and Door Factory. The doors and sashes shown by Mr. Thompson on this occasioa are not only creditable to his skill as a first class workman, but they do credit to the locality in which they are manufactured they are quite good cnongh for the best houses in any of our cities. The show of live stock was good in every department, The township of Brock is rap- idly improving in the matter of stock ; but we are obliged to pass them all over without comment ; we have given all the space we have this week to fairs. We have not yet ascertained the number of entries or the amount collected, but all who took part in the show will agree in stat- ing that it was highly successful, Special Prizes in our next, HORSES.

The Manchester Monthly Fair and Special Butter Show will be held on Tuesday, 14th inst. This thoroughly established. fair has got a reputation which obviates the necessity of our saying anything in its favor. The large number of active buyers who regularly attend this fair is the best of all proof of the necessity and importance of} these fairs and the suitableness of Manchester as an excellent locality for holding such fairs. We need searcely remind farmers that much depends upon them for the improvement as well as the continuance of such fairs. Farmers are the chief benefiters by them and it becomes them to put forth an effort to make these fairs even better in the tuture than they have been in the past by attending themselves and bringing out afl that they have to offer. The good ladies of Reach and sur- rounding townships will doubtless muke the show of butter worthy of | their reputation.
