ACCIDENT.—On Tuesday last, while a couple
of men in Mr. Verity's touudry were working
at some . belts on .. the second floor, a large
sledge' weighing fifteen pounds, fell through
an opening in the floor near hy, str'king Mr,
Frank Sanders, who was working there, on
the bank, and knocking him dawn. He was
unable to move for some time, but finally re-
sumed work. It is lucky that he was not
atruuk on the head, as such a blow there could
not have failed to kill him.
TAE PARLOR Coxcsnx.—One of these popu-
lar entertainments was given hi aid of the ex-
tension fund of the Methodist Church in Mrs.
W. H. Verity's parlor, on Friday evening last,
The parlor was well filed with au appreciative

flounced the pleasing intelligence that the pro-
ceeds amounted to over 531. Wo understand
that another entertainment of the kind will
shortly be held at the residence of some other

A HEAVY Loss.—On Friday Iast,at the Birk -
ton fair, Bissett Bross., of the Exeter livery,
suet with a heavy loss in the death of a hand-
some cbesnut mare, one of a matched team
which were known for their beauty iu all the
country round. They had been hired to soap
peddlers to go to the fair. Early on Friday
morning they let the team out iu the Kirkton
fair gronnd,whel e a wire was stretched around
the horse ring. In galloping around the ling,
the came to the wire, and which it is supposed
they did not see. The mare stumbled against
it and turned a complete somersault, alighting
in such a way that one of its legs was broken
below the knee. Efforts were made to set the
ler, but they were unavailing, and the poor
beast had to be shot. The peddlera paid for
the borse, but money cannot repiaee.the team
which was broken up. It was one of the pret-
tiest teams to be seen in a day's travel.
MANITOBA PnonooTIONa.—On Saturday last,
Capt. Jas. Howard ceded in the Tam office to
show us specimens of wheat grown iu Manito-
ba which he procured when visiting that Pro-
vince a few weeks ago. The spring wheat,
which took first prize at Wiunipeg—a sample
of wbicli he kad v'ith him, --cannot in our
opinion be excelled in this older province. The
next best sample was grown on the farm of
Mr. W. H. Trott, formerly of Exeter. The
kernels were plump and hard, and ought to
make first-class flour. The yield of this cereal
is much greater than in Ontario. Mr. Howard
also had with him a prairie rose planted in its
native soil, just as taken from the prairie. It
is a small shrub about a foot in height. The
soil is a heavy, rather stinky loam, which, we
are told is about a toot and a half deep. The
Captain has formed a very high opinion of the
capacity et the province, and will give his ex.
perienoe to the readers of Tem Terns.
