T. HOLMES, Agent. We are pleased to be able to inform onr readers that tho Hon. Dr. Tupper will pay a visit to Ingersoll on o» about tho IWi of June, on which occasion ho will deliver nn address to tho Youug Men’s Liberal Con­ servative Association. The arrangements arc not yet fully completed, but we believe it is tho intention to accord to tho Hon. Gentleman a public reception, and in order that the large number who have expressed a wish to bear him may have an opportun­ ity of doing so, it is intended that his ad­ dress, weather permitting, shall be deliver- ed in the open air. This is ns it should be, for there area large number of Indies and gentlemen in this vicinity, of both political parties, who would like to hear the till .’Died statesman and who would necessarily be deburred from doing so if it was not deliv- cred out of doors, as wc have no bailor building large enough to accommodate the very large audience that may naturally be expected. Dr. Tupper was not able to be present at the grand Conservative demon­ stration of tho Sonth Riding of Oxford, last summer, und al that time promised to visit us at the earliest opportunity. He visit- Loudon with the Hon. Sir John Mcdonald aud other leaders of the party, ou the 12tb of June, and Dr. Tupper, who has been asked to honor us with a visit, has prom­ ised to comply with that request ou his re­ turn from the demonstration at London. Whether or not Sir John or any of the other gentlemen will be with him hero is uncertuiti, but if they could make it con­ venient to do so, we nre certain they would be accorded a hearty welcome, und it they could be induced to deliver ad­ dresses they would have as large and in­ terested audience as could be gathered iu any other constituency iu Western Ontario. The arrangements arc tn the bauds of the Young Men's Liberal Conservative Associ­ ation and as an inaugdrai effort wo are sure they will lenvo no stone unturned to make it a grand success. Young men from the outlying parts of the Riding are invited to co-operate with the lugorsoll Association, and any who nre desirous of doing so tthi requested to communicate with tho president or secretary of tho As­ sociation at once. The time is short but we are sure that when tho final arrange’ meats as to time, etc., are completed and announced we shall haveeis largo a gather­ ing ae we bad last year and that it will prove a repetition of that grand demcn- stratiou. The able speeches delivered by the Hon. Dr. Tupper in tho House of Com­ mons the last fuw sessions liars endeared the man to tho populace and they will frieze upon nn opportunity of .v earing aad going him with avidity. So heartily averse have the people of this old Rcfoim constituency betomo to the tnisnumed party al present in power that they are ready to sink their old allcgiunco to the name “ Reform '* which has been prosti­ tuted to tho basest purposes, and aie pie- pared to take up aud support the men who, through patriotism to the country, are willing, and have the capacity, to give them good measures. The ball which was set rolling last summer, was accelerated iu its motion by the South Oxford demonstra­ tion, and the young hten of the Riding are trot willing to stand idly by but will give it a good push forward in its progress thia season and we feel convinced that the cause will be taken up throughout the length and breadth of the Dominion until tba men who have acquired power under false pretence* are driven from their places and better placed there to occupy them. Some donbls having existed in the minds of mnniCipal officers with regard to the mode of compiling the voters' Lists Act of last session, which extends the Act to Mun­ icipal elections, the fidlowing letter was ad­ dressed to the Attorney-General, by the clerk ot a western township To the Attorney-General : ) A pamphlet copy of nn Act to extend the Voters'Lists Act of 1876 to municipal elec­ tions, and utherwise to amend tho said Act, has l>een seut me through the post office,which means that I should, in making out thevoters' list this year, follow it.I find some difficulty in following its pro­ visions, and therefore take the liberty of writ- BlV00’ ’CC*U8 ^°Ur 031,13 oa ll,c Sec. 4. The alphabctl&’.l list, &c., shall hereafter lie in three parts, according to Sche­ dule A to this Act.The fit st part is to contain the names of all legal voters entitled to rote in the mtniicipnl- ity, at both municipal elections nnd electionsfor members ot tho Legislative Assembly. Tho second part is to contain the mines of all other persons, etc., entitle.! to vote in the municipality at municipal elections only. To my knowledge, what constitutes a legalqualification for a voter is assessed value ot real prop -rty of at least ?2i)0, or SI00 income and upwards as for tho House of Assembly,or $100 aud upwards for municipal elections, and who the olh>r pereont referred to in the second part can lie I cannot sec, and the-cforeparts one and two must be a dupli­ cate of each other. Or is it intended that tho second juirt shall con­tain only the nimei of all persons assessed at $100 and upwards, but not as high os $200 ? The third part is to contain the names ofall other male persons, etc., entitled to votein the municipality at elections for members of the Legislative Assembly only.Who the other male persons can bo that are not included in No*. I aud 2 I do not see. and this list must be therefore a copy of theother two, excepting only the names of voters entitled to vote forcounoillor, distinguished by being assessed only for less than $209 and not below $100 real property.Sec. 9. Amended Act.—In municipalitiea divided into polling snh-division*, the Clerk, Wore poll opens shall deliver to Deputy Re­turning officer a copy according to Schedule B, 39 Vie, cap 5, of the first and second parts of the proper list of voter*, etc. But not ac­cording to Schedule A, amended ActFrom this it would appear that the Clerk is to deliver a list compiled from the first andsecond parts (and which milst contain everyname in the first part), and tho original voters' list under amended Act. The Clerk is not directed under amendedAct to have the first second, and third parts printed, and copies distributed and certified to by the judge, as directed iu 39 Vie., cap11. sec. 8. Schedule B, 39 Vic., cap. 5, referred to in sec. Oof the amended Att, is quite differentfrom schedule of forms No. 1, 39 Vic., cap. 11,and amended Act. schedule A. Please direct me whether I shall furnishthe judge with copies only nf the first part,or with three copies each of the three part* under amended Act and whether I should have 200 copies of each of the three partsprinted and distributed a* directed in 39 Vic.,cap 11. Being most anxious to prepare correct listsof voters, as directed by the statute, I trustwill be my sufficient apology for intrusion. To this letter tho Attorney-General, by his deputy, sent the following reply : — reply From the ArroRXEY-osxsnAL. In reply to yours of 17th inst to the At­ torney -General, 1 beg tossy that in townships the second jart of the voters’ list will containthe names of persons assessed for real property D> the amount of $100, and not to the amount of $200. In cities and towns the only part ofthe voters’ list which will contain any namesis the first ; the third in townships and the second and third in cities and towns will have written upon them sinlply the wort! “none.”I'pon appeal, the judge may afterwards insert iu tho second aud third parts the names ofpersons disqualified from voting r.t electionsfor the Assembly or Council, as the case may be. Section 9 of the Voters' List Act of lastsession defines what the clerk shall do in the event of a municipal election b'ing held. He is, in making out the copy of the voters’ listto be used by deputy returning officers, to use paper ruled in the Corm and with the headings shown in schedule “B,” 39 Vic., cap 5. Mostof the columns will be left blank, to lie filledup by the deputy returning officer at the poll­ ing.The first second and third parts are notprinted seperately, but on the sahie sheet, and taken tiigcther make up the voter's list for themunicipality, to be used both for rafliamcn-tary and municipal elections. Of course the list in its new shape, contain ing three part*, still requires to bo printed,revised and certified in the wanner prescribed by 39 Vic., cap 11. WAR NEW S! A Turkish Honllor Blown to Atow> The following details nre received of the destruction ot a Turkish monitor by tor­ pedoes :—Two young Russian engineer offi. cers attempted to reach the monitor early in the evening with torpedoes, but were discovered and driven Lack by n heavy fire. At three o'clock in the morning they re­ turned in two skiffs carrying a chain of small torpedoes filled with dynamite. No lookout being kept aboard tho monitor, they securely lodged the chain ncrosn her bows, and on their return they discharged the whois series of torpedoes by means of an electric battery. Tho vessel immediate­ ly disappeared. ANOTHER ACCOUNT. A Bucharest correspondent gives another aCdoimt of the destruction of tbo Turkishmonitor; a3 follows •—A small detachment of Bussinn soldiers left the northern shore of the D inube, in o number of small boats. Tne night'being very dark, they managed to surround the monitor before being di * covered. When finally observed by the snniucs on board they were challenged. The Major replied in Turkish, “Friert lsi” Tim Turks, not satisfied, commenced firing in the direction of Matchiu, not knowing where tho boats came from. Tho shots flow wide. During the firing several Russian soldiers plunged into the water And swam silently to tho vessel, and placed a torpedo iu close contact with her bottom. After it had been securely fastened the men returned to tho neighboring shore. The monitor was blown into the air and all on board perished.

Little of the real move­ ments nre permitted to reach the public, though tho critical nature ot tho situation is perfectly understood in journalistic and diplomatic quarters. The bolder tone of the ministerial utterances is tho only indi­ cation that the public nt large have of the vitally important negotiations and resolu­ tions betwixt the cabinet* of England. Au­ stria, Russia and Turkey. The war is the theme on every tongue. Iu the theatres and other public places every allusion to Gladstone and tho peace policy is received with derision. The ominous reticence and irresistible advance of tho Russians in Asia while tho Danuba army lias been at a stand-still has thrown the while na­ tion into a frenzy of indignation and alarm. THE CZAR IS DEXOCXCEtf on all hands ns a hypocrite and dospoiler and it is held that his purpose iu crippling English domination, while the presefva- ti<m of tho vannted Christian rights in Turkey, is the excuse. Gront meetings called to nrgo a vigorous policv on Dis­ raeli. Even the pcace-at-any-price Brit­ons admit that tho Government Cannot mnch longer idly look on, permitting Russia to seize the nnntsn 'ntonwAY. to India under the pretext of christian­ izing the Turks. Though Disraeli has been stronglv in favor of resisting tho Russian adv nice, ho has deferred to the wishes of thb Queen and the wife of Prince Alfred.

Mr, Brown took out of his nocke'.-book aten-dollat uota and banded it to Mrs. BroWn, saying I “ Hero my dear, nre ten dollars toward the twenty I promised you,’’ Mr*. Brown handed it to Mis. Andrews tbo milliner saying 1 That pays for my new bonnet." Mrs. Andrews raid to Mr. Jordan as she banded him the note. “That will pay for your work on my counter." Mi. Jordan banded it to Mr. Hadley, ths Hour feed and lumber merchant, re­ questing his lumber bill. Mr. Hadky gave tho n jte back t* Mr. Brown, saying : “ That pays ten dollars on board.” . Mr. Brown passed to his wife, with the .remark that that paid her the twenty dol­ lars he hod promised. She in turn passed it to Mr. Black, to settle her bread nnd pastrv account, who bunded it to Mr. Hid-ky wishing credit for that amount on his flour bill ho again returning it to Mr. Brawn with tho remark that it settled for one month’s board. Whereupon Brown pnt it back into his pocket-book, exclaiming that “ ho never thought a ten dollar bill would go so far.” Thus a ten dollar bank-note was made to pay ninety dollars indebtedness inside of five minutes.

MAY >0; 1*77. There is a great difference of opinion among dairymen in regard to the time wbok esws should bd' tamed to graen. Many contend that *11 kinds of stock should be k*pt off pasture grounds during Spring ttutR there is a good growth of grass. In other words the herbage must have ob- JVUcd web a start that the stock will net tie able io ski it down short during the sea- eon, nud thus they believe a supply is more folly insured. Another phn, practiced by many, is to stock hnve the .full rtnof pastures soot^ni the snow is off the ground, al- wing it to pick, on the old grass aud eat ,f the early vsgetation aa soon as it springs ..% The cliief reason urged for thia latter urso is, that the change from liny to f - •ltBlri:feeding should be as gradual as issibte, in order that the stock may be pt in good health; that if cows in Spring 3 turned suddenly from dry food upon txuriant pasturage, the change is very lia- ' j to produce serious troubles—excessive louring—bloating and other disorders i.at impair health, ofleu for a considerable tngth of tima, and even if they do no^ zcad to the total loss of the animal, they nuBfttho loss of her milk for longer or ..Sorter periods.’ Now a middle course, between the two b ' aus named, we think is to be preferred • nd will give the best results. In the first dace, it may be remarked, pasture lands rill bo hindered in jfroductiveness by al- I jwiug stock to roam over tho fields early fn Spring before the ground is settled, nnd wbileitis eoft and easily trodden. Tho •‘poaching of the land," by the frequent tread of catllo, destroys the grass in places while'the surface is rendered uneven or filled with boles made by tho feet of cattle. Again, when tho frost is coming out of the ground, it is often rendered so loose in tex­ ture that tho roots of grass arc easily pull­ ed out and cows feeding the old herbage not unfrequently injure the turf by pulling tip gross by the roots. It will be advisa­ ble llien not to turn slock upon pastures until the ground is fully settled, and is not in condition to bo injured by the feet of cat­ tle. Nothing is gained-by allowing pos­ tures to get a tall growth of grass before turning stock upon them, because they tramp the herbage down in places, and by neglecting to feed other portions down, it soon becomes hard and wooden, and will not bo eaten. Grass is sweotest aud gives the best re­ sults in milk when it is eaten off at regular intervals, and is not allowed to get a largo growth. In this way tho product is greater while, She exhaustion is less than it is where tufts of grass arc allowed to mature and go to seed. Cows ought not to be turned at fence from hay to pasture, sinco a sudden cbange'of this kind will bo apt to affect their health. A better way is to give them the run of pastures for an hour ot two at first, and so allow them gradual­ ly, from day to doy, to become accustomed to the change of food, and they should be fed from time to time with hny after they have been turned to pasture altogether. Cows will frequently eat greedily of bay when they have been out to pasture for a considerable length of time, and rations of hay will be found useful in correcting a ten- tleuey to looseness of tho bowels or scour­ ing- , . &Some dairymen aro in tho habit of giv­ ing salt to animals at certain intervals of time, but the better way is to keep it con­ stantly before them or within their reach so they can take it daily or at will. Na­ ture regulates the quantity of salt needed much bette? than it can be done by por­ tioning it out at intervals, and if the ani­ mal always has it within reach there is no danger ofbver-fecding and the milk w.ll show less variation in character. An im­ portant poiut to be observed in tho man­ agement of milch-stcck is to keep them in a healthy, thrifty condition, and if cowscn turning to grass, are inclined to lose -flesh nnd run down weak and thin, they should be fed ratims of ground grain and thus kept up to tlio xnaxium of health and strength.—yennont Farmer. Eoglbh Farm-Yard;. Perhaps the first object in'an English barn­ yard to arrest the attention of an American observer would be the appearance of the stack -barton. ~ Every hay-stack is neatly raked and pulled by hand, ro as to present a firm front to the weather ; the bottom is bov. eled out with a hay knife to the extent of three or four feet, and the top surmounted hy a tapering and picturesque covering of haulm sufficient to withstand the heaviest rain-storm and effectually resist the inclemencies of win­ ter. The grain stacks (English agricultural­ ists seldom preserve their produce in covered barns, as is the custom here) are, for the most port, constructed on an elevated staddle, supported at ths four angles by hewn stone pil­ lars, surmounted by caps of the same material but of xaueb greater diameter, *0 as to pre­ vent rata and other vermin, t’ at -annot pro- gress in an inverted position, 'rem getting ir. to tho mow.

As a precau­ tionary measure against possible contingencies it is customary for some one, lantern in hand to examine all the cattle‘before retiring, and though the isolation of their quarters’involves an extra walk of a hundred yards or so, the drawback is more than counter balanced by the benifit derived in a sapitary point of viow.

A correspondent inquires concerning “the probable demand for white cheese, and Abethcr prices are likely to be better for white than for colored cheese.” There is always a limited foreign demand for white cheese to supply certain markets, like that at Manchester, where white cheese is preferred to colored, but the larger part of the cheese demanded for export requires to be colored. We do not learn that the demand for white cheese ia increasing in the English markets, though it is raid to be slowly gaining for our home consumption. At this writing, May 14th, we see no prospect of any larger quan­ tity of white cheese being in demand than last year, and it will bo remembered that, during the latter part of the season, there was a surplus of white cheese which was slow of sale, and at lower rates than colored chccss of the same texture and quality. White cheese often brings a better price than colored, when the make of the former is light and not sufficient to supply the foreign demand. In such cases we hare known in. stances where shippers have contracted with certain well-known factories for the manufac­ ture of white cheese at higher rates than the best (Quotations for colored. This fact has led many to suppose that white cheese is the most marketable and commands the best prices. The limited call for white cheese for export­ ation, renders it unrafc for factories, in any considerable number, to enter upon its manu­ facture, unless special contracts be made with shippers and dealers for its production. Colored cheese for exportis always in demand, if of good quality,, and may be regarded as the standard for cheese in our export trade ; hence for the general market it will always be safe to run the make on this style. Wc have no means of knowing the number of factories that will engage in the production of white cheese and therefore can give no information as to the comparative prices likely to rule be­ tween colored and white cheese ; but without some special order from dealers, we should hardly expect to get any Letter rates by mak­ ing white cheese than colored. Some factorymen hold the opinion that color in cheese should be done away with, and that the American factories by a united effort in abandoning the use of annatto, could so influ­ ence the taste of foreign consumers that there would soon be no demand for colored cheese ; and such a combination has been proposed. The scheme is wholly iuipractiblc and all at­ tempts of this kind, even though the desired combination be made, would only end in put­ ting apretn.um on colored cheese and give the English or Canadian manufacturers another advantage in the markets, which they would not be slow to improve. Wc should be glad to see the coloring of cheese abandoned because it is a useless ex­ pense to our dairymen, and adds nothing to the quality of cheese, but wc do not lelieve dairymen are called upon to dictate to cornu mers what they shall or shall not have. It the taste of our consume ri is for colored cheese and if they will insist that color makes cheese more attractive and helps to give it a better relish, even though it be simplj a matter of the imagination, |wc say supply the article demamded so long as there is nothing in it harmful to health. Perhaps the time will come when colored cheese will not be wanted, but from the present outlook it will not bo during the lifetime of this generation of cheese makers.— Hural Sew Varker. ■<V A XT3 '1 7 A number «f GOOD AGKVTri¥¥ JklN 1 1L-U ,t jtKHj por mouth, to aril in theProvlncea our Improve.I Lrttrr Copying Kook,\ l.'M'l'kl warranteJ to copy all lettcra on dry/k uL ltliJ paiwr perfectly without u»o ofPress, Bru»h, or Waler.

There has been considerable interest mani- fisted of late, in this breed of swine, many having gained the impression that they arc hardier than some of the thorough-breds. The following, written for the Indiana Farmer by J. C. Comstock, although evidently not a disinterested account, may throw some li^ht on the diaracteristiw of the breed : These hogs, it is said, originated in New Jersey where they aro tltu leading brecl, and have been for several years. They aro de­ scended from European stock, some thirty years ago, The characteristics of the improved Jersey Reds are os follows : A good coat of fine red hair, with’an occasional fleck of black, broad faces, short snouts, thin pendent ean, good shoulders with large hams, brood back, ar.d good middle pieces, the whole supported by good substantial legs, seldom showing lameness, and tb<y arc able to arise aud walk with perfect ease when well fatted ; they are apparently mange proof, fatten readily at any •ge> >’«t with age attain heavy weights. Good breeders make them net from 300 to -ICO pounds at 8 to 10 months old, some have reached 800 to 1,000 pounds. The above qualities coupled with remark­ able strength of constitution, making them almoat disease proof, and susceptible of con­ stant improvement under the most ordinary treatment, will, undoubtedly make them, at no distant day, the most popular herd of swine in our country.

Ad*«rU«er, Town Papera, and also English Darned Shane, lot 27, con. 2, township of Derohan, was in tho city of London on Monday looking for a couple of men, who, at 1 a. m. tho same morning, burglarized his ign, and carried off eleven fleeces of wool. At tho hour named tho inmates of the farmhouse heard a uoise. os of some one moving around the premises. Tho proprietor accordingly arose, and had his suspicions coufirtned by observing two men entering n light waggon, which had been hitched up near by, and driving off. Not a second was lost in preparation to follow them, it being at oneo discovered that they had carried off tho fleeces mentioned. Knowing tho road they took, Mr. Shane hitched up, and with others gave chase, driving so rapidly as at times to have the fugitives in sight. When at Nileslown the burglars were lost sight of, and have rot since been discovered. A fire broke out in tho rear of Mr. Shrap- nell’s residence, about 5 o'clock on the evening of the Queen's Birthday, and but for its timely discovery the entire building would certainly have been destroyed. As it was, the kitchen, and much of tho house, was badly damaged. On the alarm being given, the Hook and Ladder Company wero almost immediately on the spot, and with buckets kept tbo fire from spreading, until the arrival of the steamer, which was put in readiness and threw water within eight minutes from the time the first alarm was given, and with the stream of water which they poured upon tho building, the fire was soon put out, and tho building still stands u another monument to the worth and value of tho steamer and the efficiency of onr fire brigade. Most of tho furniture was removed from the house, but in a more or less damaged condition. Tbo loss, by damage to building aud furniture, is fully covered by insurance.

Mr. Johnson who had tbo management of the affair, deserves great credit for th* very able manner in which ho conducted it, and tho ladies and gentleman who so ably assisted in the per- formanco of the pieces are also to be con­ gratulated upon tho very effective manner in which they rcu-lered their parts. In addition to the published programme, Mr. Freeland, Supt. of the Y. M. C. A., of Lon- don, with Mrs. and Miss Freeland, Miss Trotman and Mr. C. Freeland also took part in tho proceeding", and sang several pieces with good effect, their sweet melo­ dious voices anl perfect renditiou being highly appreciated by tho audience. There were over 530 people in attendance, being one of tlio largest audiences ever gathered iu the Hall, and we understand that a good sum was added to tho funds of the Association. The pieces sung were all of the old school, and with the setting ot the costumes of a hundred years ngo, worn by the performers, bad a very pleasing ef- feet. Tho instrumental music by Misses Phillips, McEwen, Elliott and Barratt, was particularly fine—especially the piano sola of Mias Barratt, "Home Sweet Home” with variations. Tho lugersoll band also took part, and rendered several piece* in a very creditable manner. The success which attended this concert, wo hope may induce those who took part in it Io give ns a repitition, or situriliar entertainment, at no distant day. BaUej’* Carriage Workl.

Buyers aud sellers wees at first slow in coining to terms, and it was not till Mr. Brady, auctioneer, appeared on thcsieue that any transactions were made. He offered his services and several lots were put under the hammer. This new departure resulted in the sale of most of the above lots, and was so satisfactory that he was induced to offer his services on future occasions.
