The parade extended through the principal streets to the amusement of the citizens and delight of the juTeniles. The general sports commenced shortly alter noon on the agricultural grounds, the brass band adding very materially to the attractions they did their part well and richly earned the numerous eulogies of the people.

BAZAAB AND OONGEBT The annnal bazaar, under the auspices of tli* L. A. S. of tbe Methodist church, was held in ooe of Haskett's new stores. The stock of articles was not nearly so large as on some former occasions, but a ready sale was effected for most of what was offered, and the results correspondingly satisfactory. THE CONCEBT was held in Haskett's Hall, which was filled by a respectable audience. In the absence of Dr. Sproule, M. P., his oontinued parlia- mentary duties necessitating his absence. Bey. Mr. Casson took the chair, when a lengthy proKramme of a superier order was entered upon and maintained throughout with marked ability, while the attention and ezeellent order was the subject of general mentidn. The choir gare the opeoing piece of first ' and second parts very creditably. Misses Ayers Christoe, Flesherton. sang well and showed good voice culture. • Committed to the Deep " he has a grand bass voice, and won thtf applause of the audi- «nce. Miss Hopkins, of i^lesherton, is a re- citer of rare ability, and an excellent rieader she gave one of each. Mrs. Fox, ef Toronto, appeared twiee and was eneored both times. She has an exoeUent and-well trained voice, and handles her guitar to perfection. Her rendering of "The Cuckoo" brot' down the house completely and justly so. Misses Biohardson, of Flesherton. and Misses Borke Ayera gave very appropriate and well rendered selections. Mrs. Geo. Armstrong's ittstmmeotal was very fine, few beng sufiici- ently up in mnsie to be able to fully appreci- ate her skilful renderings. Mr. James has a grand yoioe, and gave his selection creditably Mrs. Tnmble Mr, Brown gave "I Heard a Voice," which was one of the pieces of the evening. We never heard Mrs. T. do so well, tbo' iFhe alwHy.^d-MS well, and is highly sp, p; eciated. Mr, Aa^ttrson enthused the audi- ence with "The Mardh of the Cameron Men" iis none else e»i do.

The Standabd is not a sectarian paper, and its course in fu* ture (as long as we have control of it) will be as in the past, no respecter of sects. As regards the frequent men- tion of doings in connection with the Methodist church for some time past we have no apology to offer. There has been eartra-ordinary doings owing to ebureh building daring the past year, and as a matter of course, there was necessarily more frequent men- tion than of other churched. Had it been another denomination which was engaged in building, or other import- ant doings, they would certainly have had a eimilar prominence at our hands; and besides, there are often items of more or less importance in connection with other churches which we are utterly ignorant of until they are past and out of date, and doubtless others that we never know, which, if reported to us from time to time (as we have repeatedly requested) we would gladly receive, and cheerfully publish them, but how in the name of common sense are we to publish what we don't know. In conclusion we would say that we have always attended all tbe entertain- won by Mark- ments we conld in our vicinity, even when the managers say by their ac- tions â€" we don't want you or your re- port â€" as in the one in question for. when the customery courtesies to the press is not extended, in the shape of a complimentary ticket, it is conclu- sive evidence that our presence or services are not required. iky jifMi ear MiV, dU^At JJ^^^^STwiUtfQ «!• hort*** •* y S^Sy^ cor M W. fl.
