The village ot Walters Falls present- ad an animated appearance on Friday last, the occasion being the first spring •Hhow ol the Central Agricultural So- ciety. The weather was dehghtlul and the attendance good, quite a number of the prominent farmers of the surrounding townships being pre- sent. There were a large number of duimals entered lor competition, and the character of the stock generally (ras good. A few complaints were heard about the judging, but on the whole we, believe these gentlemen tried to do their duty. The directors of the (Jeiitral Agricultural Society are to be congratulated on the success ol their first spring show. The pop- ular and obliging secretary, Mr. G. B. Hulmes, also deserves great credit for the systematic and business-like way in which he performed his duties. His efforts oil behalf of the society have been untiring, and the success with which hit* efforts wiere crowned, must have been a source of great satisfac- tion.

McCabe's store, around a stove pipe and was at Once «xtuigaiahed, or supposed to be ex- ^gmshed. However, early Tues- day morning, fire was again discoyered m the store and soon the whole place was in flames, and completely destroyed along with the empty brick store ad- jouung on the west side. Some of the contents, but very little, was saved. The buildings burned were owned by Mr. Wait, and we have not heard wheth- er it was insored cr not. Mr. McCabe, we hear, had #3,000 on his stock, which will pretty weU cover the loss. It was only by the strenuous efforts of the villagers that other buildings in the vicinity were sayed,â€" Grey Keyiew. Worthy of Commendation. That Mr. J. E. Marsh conducts a re- spectable and woU regulated hotel goes without saying, but he does not stop there he puts his enterprising spirit and commendable taste into practice by adorning his outside premises with a handsome and well kept lawn, dotted with plants and flowers and enclosed by a neat fence: Of course Mrs. Marsh justly comes in for a good share of cred- it in those matters. Then Mr. M. has purchased a two-acre park lot and is having it made level and smooth, erect- ed a substantial fence and planted between thirty and forty maple trees around it the past week. This we pre- sume is intended for a pleasure ground which is very much needed. We hope such taste may become contagious among our well-to-do citizens who are able to thus improve and beautify our prosperous village. s A Ballway Horror. seven o'clock last as the through Sunday express About "lorniuiir 'Hindered along at the rate of 25 miles y nour on the main line ot the Grand "ink about two miles west of Hamil- foS A *°^^'^® jumped the track comT ^^ several cars, making a mpiete wreck and OBhering flome ^T ^°^^ '^^' eternity.

Now that the Irot, dry weather has come, the danger from fire is greatly increased. Our village has fortunately been very ftee from anything like disastrous fires, bat there' have been seyeral small ones during the past, and the want of proper means to cope wiih the flames has been felt. Now, other villages, not as large as ours, are turning their attention to this matter, and I think our "town fathers*^ should take the matter iuto their serious consideration. As regRrdiog the way in which this shall be done, they are the best judges; but if nothing more can be done' a couple of dozen stout buckets, an iron hook fitted with a chain and a long rope, a few pikes and a couple of lad- ders could be obtained and kept in some central place and would be of great service in event of a fire. Other villages have this and why not ours. "A stitch in time saves nine," and fome means of fira protection may be the means of saving much property if nothing more.
