The score stood, Priceyille 58 runs, Durham 31 runs, and not 11 to nothing as reported in the Globe of Monday last. We had a friendly call on Saturday last from Mr. W. W, Perry, son of Rey.

Mr. P. is in the short hand business in Toronto and is spending part of his holi- days with his wife's friends at Walter's Falls, accompanied by his better half. We had a friendly call from Mr. John Clinton, son of John Clinton, Esq., Osprey township. .John has been a resident of Manitoba for seven years and returned last week to visit bis parents and friends for a few weeks, when he will return to Winnipeg, his home. He speaks in glov\dng terms of the west, and also of the present prospects for a boun- tiful harvest. Gone to Toeonto. â€" Charlie Lavyrence, of W. J. McFarland's mercantile estab- lishment, has accepted a situation in Toronto and left town on Monday last to enter upon his new occupation (book- keeper for his brother). Charlie was one of our most popular young men, as well as esteemed and courteous sales- men, and his departure is one of general regret. We wish him success. The large frame bank barn of Wm. Galbraith, two and a half miles south- east of here on the gravel road was bum â-  ed on Sunday night last together vrith a quantity of old hay. The loss is from five to six hundred dollars. Insurance $300. Mr. Galbraith is on a trip to British Columbia and the place was closed up for the present. It must have been the work of an incendiary. Camping Quaetette.â€" On Monday last Wes. Armstrong, E. K. Richardson and Charlie Sarjeant, of Flesherton, and Willie McFarland, of Markdale, four respectable youths, armed to the teeth with shooting irons, fully equiisped witn fishing tackle and their wagon so heavily laden with camp paraphernalia and provisions that two of the party had to walk, started for the famous Bell's Lake there to spend a week scalping Indians, hunting bears, netting fish, spearing frogs, bagging fowl and mashing mos- quitoes. We hope their expectations may be fully realized and patiently wait for particulars of their exploits. The Outlook, â€" ^The country is suffer- ing severely for want of rain. Hay is well up to, if not altogether, an average crop in this part, but roots and late grain is almost past recovery. We had a brief trip last week through Orange- ville, Mt. Foresb, Palmerston, Drayton, Fergus and Elora and found the crops in much the same state as in the vicinity of Markdale,' viz., fairly promising for an average crop, but in bad need of rain. North of here, however, the state of af- fairs are not so promising as some of our most copious showers failed to reach the northern portion of this connty, and even a few miles north of Markdale the outlook is very discouraging. Sent Up.-â€" J. W. Potter alias Bobert Bruce alias Bobt. Moffatt was np before Justice B. Myles in this village on Satur- day evening last to answer a charge of horse stealing. It appears said Potter had been working as moulder in Moffat Sons' foundry some six days previous to the 12th July, when he got on a drunk and left town the following night. On the 18th morning Moffat ft Sons dis- covered that tiieir horse and hatneas were gone. A search wamni being ia sued, Alf. Moffat and Conatabla NoUo started in search of the stolen property and thief. They fonnd the horse, wbkdi had been sold fur |10 some two milea east of Flesherton. continaing their search they arrived in Dondadk before daylight on Saturday morning and cap- tured their Bnppoaed man in the Qoeen's Hotel. On their arrival in Mai^ale a trial was held and the prisoner eonunit- ted to Owen Sound time to stand his trial aft tlie A«inft, Bfti»Mi inf^y seedy «8e(L';. :;^:. r '^^ We had an interview this week with a preacher and a lawyer as to the chances of their securing the much needed rain the lawyer said he didn't think the parson seemed to have much influence in the, upper courts, while he in turn intimated that the lawyer's in- fluense was confined to the lower regions. EvEBT cabe should be taken during the dry season in handling fire or even in smoking as serious loss may easily result from a little carlessness. Only a few days ago a person casually strolled into Armstrong's mill yard while smok- ing and shortiy after he left, a blaze was seen by one of the employes who prom- ptly quenched it with water. A coal had evidently dropped from his pipe which would have destroyed the whole mill and cheese box factory had it got a few minutes start. TVotice- â€" Any persons calling to settle their indebtedness with the late firm of Turner Cos during my temporary absencb will please pay my brother, Walter Turner, and he will give receipts therefor. A short period longer will be extended to those who have not yet settled before transferr- ing books and accounts to other hands. A. Turner. ' â-  .! Holland Coimcil. The celebration of the "Battle of the Boyne" was more enthusiastic through- out the Dominion this year than usual, while, according to reports, all passed off peaceful and in order The Empire says "The celebration of the bi-centenary yesterday was the greatest revival of Orangeism ever witnessed in Toronto or Canada. The procession yesterday was the larg- est and finest Orange parade that eyer walked the streets of a Canadian city. The lodges were strong, the order pre- served was perfect, the speeches were tolerant and eloquent, the amusements provided excellent. This applies to nearly ever place in Ontario heard from. In Toronto the day broke dull and cloudy, but before the procession was organized the sun was out strong and clear. A finer day could not haye been desired, not only in Toronto, but in the greater portion of Ontario. And there was seen all over Ontario parades of Orangemen in numbers that told of a re-awakemng of interest in the Order. Holland Centre, July 5, '88. Adjourned Court of Revision. Eeeve in the chair.
