The roots, were vary large and of good quality. Mrs. Millnor allowed u. large number of fancy articles, and the diiferont classes of ladies' work were well represented, such 'vsqnilts,rnats, mutton, ete., being very numerous. There were also several well made shirts. The show of fruit was very good. There was 9. [ largo army of baskets and tubs of butter of excellent quality. The grain was very good, we noticed particularly a bag of very fine green peas. T he potatoes wore very lurgn and clean, as were; the roots generally, Mr N B Allin, of Melanc- thors, showed two very nice coverlids. wove, home made, which took finrt prizes at Whitby Pickering nnl Bowmrusvillo. 8quashes in; d pumpkins were wellrepresen- The inside show was in James: L.

Turkeys and ducks were well represented. Mr F F Teeple had a very handsome buggy of his own mnuu- lecture, on eshilriiion, and which reflects ‘great credit on the maker. Many of those who saw it thought it almost ahead of the country. Mr mu. Marshall had on oshibi. tion a buggy, cutter. sawing machine, plows, turnip cutter, two mowers, Bulky rake, harness and seed drill, which he has for sale. Messrs. J. & U.

Our intentions , may be of the best. It was an old divine who said that "hell is paved with good in- tontious." In the present day ignorance will not justify us.

The slow way in not only the surest, but tho quickest way, and whether we will or no, we must sooner orl later adapt ourselvts to ii, and it may as well he sooner. I have no doubt that Moses, before ho ran away from Egypt, would have liked well if he could then have delivered the children of Israel, but he went away into the wilderness and spent what We would call the best forty years of his life earning his bread and butter and doing numbing for the cause of which ho was after- wards to be tho champion. But the set time came and Moses moved. Is it to be though that that forty years of doing nothing was lost to Moses or to the Israel. Aes? The doing nothing was likely the ivory best thing he could have dune, both for himself and them. He did his duty in his business of a shepherd, he earned his bread and butter, and in so doing was doubtless serving his Master in the most ed'vetive way.

Law is a. good thing, but there may be.too much of it, and it may be taken as an ax- iom, that wherever legislation is calculated t to lessen men’s self dependence, wuchlegis- lotion would be better avoided. In a. popu- , larly governed country, such as our legisla- 1 tion cannot go ahead of public opinion, or I ifit attempt to do so, law will more or less . be brought into disrepute. To make laws, l especially social laws--worisalrle, there must be a. very huge preponderance of ', public opinion in their favor, and on the L other linnd, if there is such a pvepouder. , anon, there will he small need for legisla- tion in it seem] point of view. The great fact to be uccertuincd. is that Christianity and morality depend on sentiment and not on law, and the industrial and economical ‘ prosperity of a people really hinges on l these more than perhaps manv of us are , apt to imagine.

The lecture was especially prepared for those who are preparing to become 2nd class teachers, and was a highly interest- ing and very 11scful lecture for those for whom it was designed, and who formed " least two-thirds ofhis audience. From the facility with which the doctor used the l biaekboavd and crayon it was asserted that i he would have made an excellent and en- thuniastic educator.
