LATE Moms, --Owing to the ex-
tremely bad state of the roads between
Exeter and Lucaiu during a great
portion of the year, end the late hour
in the afternoon at which the stage
leaves Lumen the southern mail doer
not arrive in Exeter until about 7.80
o'clock p. m. The peouto ,aro caused
considerable annoyance and incon-
venience in the town, and at other
educes along the route. When the
various municipalities ihrough which
the London, Huron
and Bruce passes
grantedbonuses, they did so upset the
supposition that tho slow and tedious
system of coaching the mails would bo
abolished as soon as practicable, and a
good decal of dissatisf'tction was ex-
pressed when the Postmaster General
some time ago, in answer to a question
by lz°, G oea.w.ty, member for Huron,
stated that it was not the intention of
the Government to have the mails car-
ried on the railway at present. If the
avails ever arrived itt the time billed,
ilia people might patiently await the
supreme pleasure of Mr, Huntington ;
but they do not arrive for sumo houre
after ; and hence considerable dissat-
isfaction is felt. We hear that Mr.
D. Johns, the pos'master of the vil-
lage, is taking the matter in handl, and
is preparing a petition representing to
the Government the poietion we are
placed in and requesting them to hand
over the mail contract to the rail-
way company. Mr Johns will have no
trouble iu obtaining signeturee to the
petition,
