GRAND EXCURSION - The proprietors of the KALOOLAH have made arrangements for an
excursion to Detroit on Wednesday next, the 4th of July. It is pretty generally known that the fourth of July is to the Americans what the Queen's birthday is to the British, namely, `The National Holiday', because the National Independence dates from that day. Brother Jonathan goes into the spirit of the thing with his whole heart and soul, and a "12th of July" in an American city, such as Detroit or Buffalo, is a sight well-worth seeing. Messrs. VanEvery and Rumball, wishing to give the country folks a fair chance, of availing themselves of this excellent opportunity of seeing Jonathan "in all his glory", have issued their Bills early; and as the KALOOLAH will leave Goderich on the previous evening, thus afford an opportunity of witnessing the commencement and whole proceedings of the day, at Detroit, a very large turnout from both Town and country may be expected. For particulars, see advertisement.
