THE AGRICULTURAL FAIR.
LIST OF THE PREMIUMS AWARDED.

The thirty-first Annual Exhibition of the
Agricultural Society of this county closed
on Friday of last week. The managers are
much pleased with the success of the exhi-
bition. The address delivered on the second
day by Hon. ]. Randolph Tucker, was
splendid one, and gave much encouragement
and hope to farmers. The exhibits in the
Hall were very fine, but not numerous. The
exhibition of stock and machinery has never
been equaled upon those grounds. Most of
the racing was interesting from the earnest
ness of the competition. During the entire
Fair many persons were upon the grounds.
The proceeds Of the exhibition amounted to
$500, and the expenses were $4,000, which
left $1,000 to be applied to the partial liqui-
dation of the old debt The following is a
list of premiums awarded.

GENERAL.

RECENTLY six men were killed by falling
rock on McLeod's contract at Red Sucker
Cave, on the Canadian Pacific Railroad.
A short distance east of the same place
three men were also killed by premature
blast.
A CIRCULAR was recently sent to the
Governors of each of the States and Terri
tories in the Union requesting them to APP
point one delegate-at-large to the National
Cattlemen's Convention to be held in st.
Louis November 18th.
CONSIDERABLE railway property belong
ing to the Grand Trunk Railway at Lind
say, Ont, was destroyed by fire few days
ago. The freight house and shed known as
occupied by the well-known commission
firm, W. d. Matthews & Co., was de-
stroyed.
THE J. W. Ranken Company, large
London firm of East India merchants, went
under because of the Chinese war.
NEWS was lately received by boat that
roughs and whisky sellers were in practical
possession of Michipicoton, on the north
shore of Lake Superior. The detachment
of police sent from Toronto was too small
to cope with the desperadoes, who kept up
reign of terror over the whole district.
THE Governments of Spain and Portugal
lately combined to oppose the right of the
Berlin Conference to deal with the terrific
rial claims of Portugal in the lower Congo
country. Should the conference persist in
discussing the question of her claims in
that country, the Spanish and Portuguese
ENJOYS say that they will withdraw from
that body.
DIR. CARvER'S recent visit with a COM
pany of cowboys to Hamilton, Ont, set all
the small boys to lassoing. The result was
that a small boy named John Cary was
lassoed by his companions and dragged
along the ground some distance, receiving
such injuries that he died soon after.
AT the first of series of meetings in his
behalf, in London recently, the Tichborne
claimant told large and enthusiastic audi
ence that his persection by the Government
arose from the fact that Gladstone's daugh-
ter had married into the Tichborne family.
A resolution was passed by TIE meeting
affirming the claimants rights.
