The jHiace and quiet of Kabbatb even- ings in Cbesloy have been disturbed very much of late by drunken rowdies. It is not known where they got their whiskey. Probably they suck eggs, fur the antis will resort to any artifice, â€" however moan and base, â€" in order to hurt tho .Scott Act, and |>ceple have l)een known to find something more than vtm Julov inside of egg-shells heforu to-day. A man is pretty low down in the â- oeiui suale when he has to resort to such tricks to defeat the ends of justice. Kvery farmer within a radius of at least Ave miles of Floshcrton should at- tend tho grand Harvest Home Festival, to be hold in the Methodist Church, Flesliertofi, on Wednesday next, Sept. iWth.

A Box for the Printer's Devil. A Hwei't, pious old lady was visiting a fair journalist one day and was very miioh interested in the upparent nuntness and good order of her desk, as well as the many oddities that oinaineiited it, and . coiiiiiuiiited upon it all, adiiiltting she "expected to tiiul a litoiiuy woman's desk all hettor-skolter." 8lie aisc ticed tho journalist frecpiuntly opened 11 drawer and sought for some article in a )h>x that Heeniod to have just what she wanted, niid the old lady's curiosity pr.niipted her to ask what in the world tlmt box was for? "That's my little hell l».x," was the grave answer. "Mercy !" exclaimed the visitor, put- ting on her eye-glasses, "yiuir what'C "Why, niv hell. box ; there is every- thing useful in it from a corkscrew to a cathartic pill," said the journalist, still absorlied in bur work. "IJless my soul T never heard of such ;i box as a -" .Suddenly it dawned upon the hostess that the old lady never heard of th;it article of typographic sigiiiticeiico, and a }>aal of laughter burst from her lips as she answered ; "Voii do not know that a 'liell-box, is A very useful article in a printing office, do you ?" ' "No," said the old lady, sadly, "I have iieard about the printer's devil, but I oavei knuw they had a boa fur him." AnotUer Lie Nailed. From tlui (JrutujeviUc Advertutr. We have received the following letter from Police Magistrate Gray, denying thir statements attributed to him by Tho DutTerin Post in its issue of Sept. 1st. : Editor of The Advertiser. My Dear Sir,â€" I am not in general a reader of The OraiigeviUo Post, therefore not ac(piainted with the news it gives to the public, to any great extent, lint my attention has been drawn by Inspector Anderson - who was present at the time spoken of- to an article in The I'osl rep- resentini; ine as saying I have become thoroughly convinced that the Scott Act is a complete farce. In another place in tlio same artiulo 1 am represented as say- uij} I am convinced (mm my experience that the ini|xisitiuii of high license is the best and only way of rei;ulatiiigtho liquor traftic. I never gave- utterance to such sentiments. Tho Scott Act in the abstract was not the subject uf conversat4<si after the trial of Bennett, as referred toby The Post, but the subject thut formed our conversation was the difHculties I met with in enforcing the Scott .\ct in OufTer- ill, and on that subject T did say witnes- ses are prepared to purjure themselves to defeat the ends of tho 'aw. I did say thut when a case is brought into court I tied it almost impossihie to secure a con- viction, for all the legal talent of the county appears to bo ivriayed against me, and the greater part of those persons who voted for the Scott Act are dead to the enforcement of it. 1 believe the law of 1871^ is the best law ever eiutoted to put down tho vice of inteiiiperiincc when pro- perly enforced ; but iu the enforcement of it how have the otiicers of the law l>een met Viy the lawless creatures who are do- teriiiiiied to sell tliu )ioiaon in the face of all law t Let tho tirubrnnd and Mr. J nil's shops and saw mill answer tlmt question. When Mr. Munro- wsui appointed Police Magistrate and tlied to enforce the .Scott .\et, ho and the Inspector were met by the deadly dviiiimite, live explosions given tO'theni. When I was put into otfico my tiist suiiinioiig wa.n torn into ahreds, the ooiiHtalile abuseil and luisaiilteit, uikI the l,in and nij'selt defied. With such a re- coi'd of dellaiice it is not to lie wondered at that soitH! of the (iovorniiient otticials should siiy to me that Dlitl'erin w,\b the iiiiiHt lawless comity of any in Canada This IS tho statement I made at (iraiul \'»ll(!y respecting the lawles-suess of Duf- fei'iii ; and not as 'The Post has put it : That at (irnnd Valley a few weeks ago, Mr. Gray said that ho was informed by tlie fioveiniiuint Uiat nowhere through- out (liilario wiwt tl.v adiniiiittratioii of the law more disi,'iae<iful and ccuTupt than in tho County of Dutrerin during the Munro regime. There is another false statement made by The Post, whiLh is lus foUuwt : The Ontario (iov^rnuyeiit )« lo->Uy luil<liiig an investigation to aaoortaiu what Fisher did with the fines. Tin, tioveiniiient i* doing iiothiiii; of tho kind. But the fiends in- carnate reiiroseiited by The Post may find out to their cost what the (invernineiit is investigating. I have no wish to be iiiis- representeil, but boldly Kay that the Soott .Vil lia.i no truer friend in the County of Diitt'orin than myself, and I shall stand by it while there is a i>laiik in the ship. Trusting you will liiid roum in Tho Advertiser for this letter, I am, yours truly. Police Magistrate. A Novel Ineeiitive to Speed. Honest John lil.inl* was for seventy years the well-known Governor of a New Enitlaiid State. Governor John had a bro- ther William, perhaps equally honest, though less well-know, who was a sports- man, and somewhat given to tiie oheeriug cup. On one of his shooting excursions William and a boon companion found that their horse did not tnit quite rapidly enough to corro8|>ond with fheir exhilarat- ed notions of the proper speed, and the companion tired a ciMrge of bird shot into ihe animal to encourage him. The horse dashed off, the buggy rocking, hats and parcels flying in all di.ections, and Wil- liam, ruler of the storm, shouted with de- light : "Shoot 'iin ag'iii ! ahotit 'iw a^j'in! He goes adin'ably." Having opened out a lot of Fal!& Winter Goods: Personally selected by myself, I can confidently recowmeud ^^'^' I l^JS *r large assortment of *••â- **<,".','(...!,."
