D., of Hamilton, visited Exeter this week, and, under the auspices of the Royal Templara of Temperance, preached two sermons on Sunday and lec- tured in the Opera House on, Monday. The rev. gentleman delivered two excellent sermons on Sunday—one in the James -et. and one in the Main-st. church—to crowd- ed congregatione,the members of the Royal Tempters of Temperance mz.rching in a body to each service. The discourses, were practical, eloquent and impressive and beaming with deep and original thought. On Monday evening the lecture on the subject; "The horse we live in," was largely attended. Mr. John Muir, S. 0,, oceupled the chair, the meeting being opened by singing by the Glee Club and. prayer by Rev. Mr Russell. " The House we live in" referred to the body of man, and the speaker clearly showed how liquor affected the house and its entire construc- tion from the kitchen to the parlor, illus- trating bis remarks by lime light views, which eonveyed the meaning more vividly. The lecture is justly celebrated, dealing as it does with this great question in a liberal and rational manner, offering offence to none, but rather by kindly and convincing arguments, winning the sympathy of op- ponents. Mr. Bell is a fine speaker, his oratory being a prominent feature of the lecture. The hall -a:+s ave11 filled and all seer :.:; kitty pleased with the cvening'e euteleziument.

Mr. Russell of Elimville, whom however, filled the bill very creditably. Each gave an address, and although lengthy, were of a very interesting nature, full of interest and knowledge. The choir also aided by interspersing the speeches with choice selections. Onthe whole, this year's anniversary was quite as successful as any former, and the management must feel :gratified.

HAucH,l,i,encltors ELLA E+ . HALLS, J TATs Is MEANT FOR You.—It has been truly said that half the world does not know how the other half lives. Comparitively few of us heve perfect health owing to the im- pure condition of the blood. But we rub along Prom day to day, •with scarcely a thougbt, unless forced to our attention, of the thousands all about us who are suffer- ing from scrofula, salt rheum and ether serious blood disorders, and whose agonies can only be imagined. The marked success of Hood's Sarsaparilla for those troubles, as shown in our adv,rrtieing columns fre- quently, certainly seems to justify urging the vso of this excellent medicine by all who know that their blood is disordered. Every claim in behalf of Hood's Sarsapar- illa is fully backed up by what the medieine hat done and is still doing, and when its proprietors urge its merits and its use upon all who suffer from impure blood, in great of small degrees, they certainly mean to in- clude you, C.
