Another of Tuckerstnith's girls was spirited away by a young Canadian, who has made for her a comfortable home in the United States. On Wed- nesday afternoon of last week, Mr. Robt. Fulton, jr., of Port Townsend, Washington Territory, and son of Mr. Robt. Fulton, formerly of Egmonville, was • married to Miss Tillie eldest daughter of James Sproat, Esq., of Tuckersmith. The interesting cere- mony was performed at the residence of Mr. David Sproat, Egmonville, uncle of the bride, Rev. Joseph McCoy being the officiating clergyman. There was a large representation of the relatives ttnd friends of the contracting parties present, and it is needless to say that the occasion was a joyous and pleasant one. Mr. Fulton has been in Washing- ton Territory for about ten years, and has prospered there, and of course in- tends making that country his perman- ent home. He has done well to come her for a life partner, and although we do not like to see the very pick of our. Canadian giris carried off and made American citizens of in this way, we do not blame Mr. Fulton for his share in the matter, as their are -very few who would not do likewise under similiar circumstances. Mr. and Mrs. Fulton expect to start for Pori Town- send next week, and the good wishes. of numerous friends will follow them, and especially Mrs. Fulton will often be affectionately remembered by many tb whom her kind and amiable dispos- itatiiu had much endeared her.

The children of the different schools took goat iiutereet In the games for which prates were °tend for the winners. Everything was 3n perfect harmony, excepting the four ,young people who went for a boat ride dwrt the river, they glided gloriously down stream :for aconsiderable distance atter turning the boat around to come back, and to their surprise they found they had gone over the rapids and were unable to get up stream. After a long time of vigorous rowing snit straining they were compelled .to land the boat and find their way back to the picnic grounds on foot.

Ward and Mr. Grant, it was rapidly extinguished be- fore any great damage was done. The "Parkhill Gazette" comes out last week with a nice little item to the effect that the statements made in the previous issue of the ExETER ADVO- CATE, about the manner in which the Ailsa Craig band was treated to Park- hill was false, and unauthorized in every particular. Now, after inter- viewing a number of the members of the Ailsa Craig band, your correspon- dent is prepared to state that the lead- er of the Craig band never gave any such information to the editor of the Gazette, and moreover 1 am prepared to furnish the names of fifteen mem- bers of the Craig band who say that the Parkhill people used them in as mean and contemptible a manner as they possibly could, and after the Craig boys won the first prize they tried their utmost to beat them out of it, and undoubtly would have succeed- ed had it not been for Mr.. Althouse, of this place. The'editor of the Gazette wants to remember the people of Craig will tolerate some things,but when any man attempts to play a double game with them as he has been doing of late. will sooner or later find himself in the. soup.
