Pro-:iso.—The annual picnic of the afetho-
dist Sabbath School took place in Mr. Picl(ard'e
grove on the banks of the Sable River, on
Friday last, and it was no "dry affair" either,
as several can testify. The proprietors of the
boats on the river kindly gave them to annvey
the children and others to and from the picnic
grounds. On Tuh•eday our Presbyterian friends
held a picnic in connection with their Sab-
bath Soirees at the Dame grounds and `spent
a very enjoyable time in boating, and other
sports, to say nothing of the rich delicacies
which Were pro`.vided.
RUNAWAY AND ACCIDENT.— On Sunday
morning last, as Mr. John Stanlake and his
mother were:driving down the Londou Road
on their way to Crediton, the horse which lir.
S. was driving became frightened at the sight
of a bog which had just risen from a mud
hole onithe road side. The eternal jumped so
suddeuly to the side of the road that the buggy
was upset and its occupants precipitated to the
ground. Mr. Stanlake retained his hold ou the
Buss and was dragged a considerable distance
before the frightened steed was stopped. Mr.
Stanlake was not severely injured, but Mrs.
Stanlake had her shoulder knocked out of
joint, and a small bone in her arm broken.
Sheris doing as well as can be expected. The
buggy was completely wrecked.
A Goon BUILnsNO. We have been shown
the plane of Mr. Carling's new store which
were drawn by Mr. E. S. Howatd, of Exeter,
and which reflect great credit upon his skill as
a draughtsman. The stores are to be two
stories high, with a very handsome front, re-
sembling in many respects Mr. Samwell's block,
yet in many . aye unlike any other building in
town. The cellar will be aired by means of
a small window underneath the large ones.
This is an improvement on the grates, wh'eh
allow snow to melt and run in the collar.}In one
of the stores will be kept dry goods and;doots
and shoes, and in the other. !igners, groceries,
hardware, deo. Mr. W. Howard has been
awarded the contract for the brickwork, when
finished, the building will bo a credit toExeter,
which will then be able to boast the finest
stores of any town of its sire in Canada.

To the Editor of the Times'
Dt.tit Sta,—Permit me thtongh your
valuable journal to give a brief sketch
c,f my visit throutth the Eastern Town-
ships. When I arrived at Osgood
Station, in the County of Carlton, i
was met by my friend A. J. Baker,b sq.,
M. 7P. P., wiio drove tate to his rest
dance in the village of 1Vetdalf, a dis-
tance of ten utiles. After a good hearty
shake hands with the family we took a
walk over his farm, which is certainly
a credit to the owner—well fenced,
good outbuildi kgs and farming utensils
all in first-class order. 1 then proceed.
ed to Alex. McDatnell's, Jame* rde-
Donell's, Duncan ' IfIoDonell'e, Sen.,
Allan McDnpellis and Duncan Me-
Donell's, jun, farrlrs,all of which bate a
beitutiful appearance and drops looking
delightful. On the following day Mr.
Baker kinly took his horse and buggy
and we drove for four day! over his
cotletituency, and having had an inter-
view with many of the most prominent
men in our travela.I feel ooufident that
kr, Morgan wonkl he nowhere should
another neatest take tilnce. We drove
through the townenips of Osgood,Rns-
sol, Clarence, Wincleetrter, Cambridge,
Gloucester and a port'i'on of Napanee.
Those townships when 1 left that sec-
tion of the country thirtyeif.ht years
ago were a dense swamp, which could
be bonght for twenty-five cents pea
awe. but has now become a fire set-
tled country, with a nntnber of thrit--
ing villages. On the whole, everything
has a better appearance than 1 antici-
pated. Tbe city of Ottawa las made
vastimprovetterrts; so much that ionly
reeounized one street and the Clrandi-
ere Falls For miles outside the city
there are beautiful ornate residences
and pleasure grounds. 1 also visited
the.rnins of the city of l n11', and from
appearance the buildings that were son-
sutned by fire, they were merely small
wooden houses put up for the workmen,
as it is a great manufacturing place,
and they require a great many men.
rt is mostly rebuilt with about the
came class of building@ as was there
first. I spent four weeks arn'ongst my
connections and friends and was warm-
ly received. I bade than till farewell,
many of whom 1 never Piped to see
again in this uncertain world, and left
for borne in the west, the garden of
Canada—Exeter its central point. And
now, Mr. Editor, this ands my trip,
hoping I have not intruded too much
on your valuable space.

sect has appeared in Woodham which
bids fair to rival the already famous
potato bug. They perform, like the
