GREAT INFLUX OF AMERICANs-THE
ROssIN HOTEL-AMERICAN BELLIES
THE FOURTH OF JULY-FAIR
WEATHER. ETC, ETC.
TORONTO, July 3, 1871.

TORONTO, July 8, 1871.
The influx of Americans was never be-
fore SO great as now, every boat and car
brings it's full quota from Niagara Falls
and the West. 1t would really seem as
though our people intended to take Can.
ada by storm.
A busy scene is to be witnessed at the
Rossin House, piles of baggage, multi
tudes of fair girls, stately DANES and well
dressed gentlemen, fill up each available
space in this grand Hotel, one of the
largest and best in North America. Con-
spicuous among the guests 1 notice an
unusual number of Southerners, more
than has been seen here since 1868. But
most prominent of all are our fair and
lovely American bellies. They are the
observed of ALI observers, and, of course,
they make it gay and brilliant wherever
they go. Our American ladies make their
visit here for double purpose. Sight
seeing, and all that. sort of thing, is well
enough, but, in the main, they come here
to get their summer outfits, gloves, per-
fumery, end toilet articles, which are
purchased at about one half the cost which
would be paid for the same on our side OF
the line. Mr.. John Kay, corner of King
and Young streets, like A. T. Stewart, in
New York, fits the ladies out with COM
plete outfit from head to foot, in detail
takes the measure, and makes up the en-
tire outfit in the shortest possible space OF
time-truly very important item for the
ladies, and fact worth knowing. The
glorious Fourth will be handsomely cele
brated here tomorrow by the American
residents of Toronto. The weather is
perfectly splendid. Dominion Day was
very handsomely celebrated here. AL
passed off quietly, without accident.

Won Put No Flowers Oh WY Papa's
Grave.
POEM BY c. L. L HoLMGs.

TAT the Academy of Music, New York, Decor
alton Day.l
With sable-draped banners, and slow, measured
tread,
The fower-laden ranks pass the gates Of the
dead;
And seeking each mound where comrades form
rests,
Leave tear believed garlanls to bloom on his
breast.
Ended at last is the labor of love
Once more through the gateway the saddened
lines move
A wailing of anguish, sobbing of grief
Falls low on the ear of the battle-scarred chief
Close crouched by the portals, a sunny-haired
child
Besought him in accents with grief rendered
Wild
Oh, cir he was good, and they say he died brave,
Why why did you pass by my dear papa's
grave?
1 know he was poor, but as kind and as true
As ever marched into the battle with you
His grave is so humble, no stone marks the spot,
You may not have seen it. Oh, say you did not
For my poor heart will break if you knew he was
| there,
And thought him too .lowly your offerings to
| share.
He didn't die lowly-he poured his hearts blood
In rich crimson streams, from the top-crowEipg
| sod
OF the breastworks which stood in the front of the
fight
And died shouting, Coward for God and the
right"
Der all his dead comrades your bright garlands
wave,
But you haven't put one on my papa's grave.
If mamma were here-but she lies by his side,
Her wearied heart broke when our dear paps
died
" Battalion file left countermarch!" cried the
| chief,
This young orphan'd maid hath full cause for he,
| grief
Then up In his arms, from the hot dusty street,
He lifted the maiden. while in through the gate
The long line repasses, and many an eye
Pays fresh tribute of tears to the lone orphanf
! sigh.
"This way it is-here, sir-right under the tree
They lie close together, with just room for me.
"Halt Cover with roses each lowly green mound
A love pure as this makes these graves hallowec
Il ground.
"Oh thank you, kind sir neer can repay
The kindness you've shown little Daisy to-day;
But I'll pray for you here, each day while live,
IT'S all that poor soldiers orphan can give.
1 shall see papa soon, and dear mamma, too
: 1 dreamed so last night, and know twill come
true;
And they will both bless you, know, when
say
How you folded your arms ground their dear ont
to-day
How you cheered her sad heart, and soothed it tx
n rest,
And hushed its wild throbs on your strong, noble
breast:
And when the kind angels shall ,call you to come
Well welcome you there to our beautiful home,
Where death never comes, his black banners t
wave,
And the beautiful flowers ne'er weep DER grave

DANBY-The funeral of Mrs.. Roxy
Croft was largely attended at the church,
at Dandy a Corners on Wednesday, June
21st. She was 80 years of age, and was
the mother of large family, being known
as kind neighbor, and woman OF ex-
cellent virtues. Rev. Mr.. Learned OF
Tinmouth, delivered fitting and appro'
pirate discourse from Revelations 22:l2.
Some of our schools are having va
cation of four weeks. Is not this good
plan, especially where the term is six
teen weeks in length. There are four dis
tricts in town with SO few scholars as to
be unable to maintain school this season.
Would not the town system if adopted
remedy this defect Yes, most effectu-
ally.
Moving machine agents are quite
plenty here, Mr.. A. S. Baker being agent
for the Sprague; Mr.. %. r. Hadwin for
the Wood Mr.. P. Holton for the Meadow
King, and Mr.. I. w. Kelly for the Buck
eve. All these machines are used in
town, but the Wood machine is used most
extensively. The Meadow King, al
though new machine, met with good
sale last year. The Sprague Mower is
just being introduced this season. AS
the haying season is at hand, farmers
should look about and examine the various
machines now offered for trial. A trial
of these various machines is to take place
at Dandy some day this week or next
We understand the Granite State mower,
another new and untried machine in this
section, will be on trial, as the agent is
now in town, and seeking an introduction
for the machine.
The Independent Ball at Bonds
Hotel, on Tuesday evening was com.
plete success, one of the largest COM
panies being present that has assembled
here for some time. There were no indi.
cation of drunkenness or rowdyism mani
tested, which is so common on occasions OF
this kind. Good music was furnished,
an excellent supper was provided, and all
enjoyed good time.
The Directors of the Staples Gilt
Edge Cheese Factory, have shipped 80 Of
their cheese directly to London, Eng
This is something never done from thii
town before, and is an experiment which
it is hoped will prove successful. By
avoiding the middle Men," large profit
for the cheese may be realized. Thii
cheese was made expressly for the ship
ping trade, and seven.eighths of the
amount, at the market price in New Yorl
is paid in advance, SO that the experiment
is not hazardous one.

REPORT OF THE BOARD OF EXAMINATION

awe. as members of the Board OF
Examiners of Castleton Seminary for the
annual examination for the year 1871, do
herewith submit the following report:
While we would express our great
qualification with all the exercises which 1t
has been our privilege to attend there
are a few special features which we have
noticed with particular pleasure.
There has been no attempt at parade,
but an honest, open showing of the terms
work.
The pupils have manifested hearty
interest in the subjects presented, and an
independence of expression, combined
with great modesty of bearing, which has
been especially pleasing.
The teachers have happily succeeded in
bringing their pupils into living sympathy
with themselves in the work pursued.
While we are pleased with the evidences
of proficiency in what are generally term
ed the more substantial branches of study,
we would not omit favorable mention of
the exercises in music and English COM
position, which have contributed to enliven
the examination as we'll as have mani
tested thorough training Of the teachers
in those departments. The specimens of
drawing and painting which adorn the
walls of the school room, nave evinced by
their merit the skill and labor given TO
this interesting branch of education.
And, generally, we are gratifed to say
that we are satisfied that the course of in
struction given in this time honored insti-
tuition, is such as is calculated to promote
and to lay the broad foundation for gen.
erous culture and refinement"
SIDNEY CRAWFORD Board of Ex-
D. r. sArDRLr2, animation.
Rev. Mr.. Holmes, of Benson, was pre-
sent during the first part of the examina-
ton, and could not be with the other mem
bers of the Board when they made up
their report He forwarded his report,
but it was not received in time to be en-
bodied with the above. He says 81 was
pleased at the homelike appearance of the
house and discipline. The order struck
me as quite perfect and well administered.
A kind severity is not possible to all edu-
Gators and disciplinarians, find. 1t was
conspicuous and pleasing feature in your
government. There appeared to be no
compromise with the evil or sluggish
doors. I was glad to see the motto "Why"
made practical in all recitations. The in.
terest in the recitation was conspicuous.
There was no appearance of skim coat
examination in anything, and was glad
to see the responsibility so completely
thrown upon the pupil. The beautiful
medium between too much intimacy and
too great distance between teacher and
scholar was marked. There seemed no
want of sympathy on the part of teach
ers.
In brief, thoroughness, willingness,
readiness and modest assurance were in
general apparent"

seem. The tables--were spread under the
trees in the ample grounds. The children
numbered sixty-were dressed in white,
and after rambling about, and singing,
were served with refreshments The Rec
tor, the Rev. DR.. Tucker, the choir of the

Chinese lanterns. hanging baskets Of

THE FOURTH AT WEsToN.-The an
niversary of our Nations Independence
was celebrated in the genuine old fashion
ed manner at Weston. The sunrise and
sunset salute were fred. A procession
was formed and marched to grove where
the exercises took place. An opening ad-
dress was delivered by J. G. Fem, Esq,
President of the day. Prayer was offered
by Rev. S. F. eastman, and Declaration
of Independence read by M. O. Edmunds,
NJ. D. The event of the day was the able
an interesting grafton by Hon. David E.
Nicholson of Rutland. 1t was an address
of great force, drawing out the full
power and pathos of the speaker, in his
own peculiar style, giving in rapid and
eloquent terms the main features of the
great struggle for American liberty and
concluding with a fitting and touching
allusion to the honored sons of Weston
and the "reminiscences of the people of the
town with whom he was familiar from
the fact of his former residence among
them. The grafton was we'll received by
all present, and gained additional laurels
for the distinguished gentleman who is
already so widely known. After the
Grafton dinner was served and the regular
toasts offered, and volunteer speeches
made, which was pleasing feature of the
day as the revival of good old custom.
ALI passed off pleasantly and in good
order, not case of intoxication or q
ripple to disturb the harmony of the
occasion, and was in wide contrast with
the scenes enacted in some of our larger
towns.
