Welcome -News.
That the good news of the relief of
Ladysmith on Thursday last was re-
ceived with great rejoicing. in Exeter,
goes without saying. Never was there
a more enthusiastic, outburst of loyalty
and patriotism manifested in the. his-
tory of the town. As soon as the
news was announced crowds began to
amass, flags were hoisted. bunting
stretched, the church bel/s set ringing,
the fire alarm sounded a ncl the whole
town went wild with joy. A half lioli-
day was proclaimed by the Reeve, and
the school was dismissed. At about
three o'clock in the afternoon a guand
procession was formed in front of the
Town Hall and paraded Main street.
The procession was made up of men on
horseback, among whom was a strik-
ing character of a typical representa-
tive of John Bull, in the person of our
much esteemed citizen, Mr. Robert
Leathorn, who sat on his charger with
the grace and elegance of a Duke, and
who added much to the tone of the
concoursent rig containing Dr. Rollins,
Warden of the County; Reeve Bissett

The lecture aod entertainment given
in Gidleys' Opera, House, on Tuesday
evening was not greeted with its large

deserved which was probably due to the
had state of the roads. The Rev. Fore-
ster,.of Toronto. gave his. popular lec-
ture on "King. -William the Third,"
and fully sustained his repetation as a
lecturer. His discourse Was indeed a
model one and the eloqtietice with
which it was given, was interesting in
the extreme. The, quartette selection
by Messrs. Ross, Senior, Poplestone
andlRev. Martin was much appreciated
as was also the solos by Miss E. Beet's,
Miss 1. johns, Miss M. White, and Mr.
Flemming. The drill by the school
boys was good, and on the whole the
evening was very Pleasantly spent.
