The fishing season is at hand. "'What
did you catch yesterday ?" asked au urchin,
with a pole and oyster can, to another boy.
"Just what you'll catch when yoa go home,"

and the convention slowly and solemnly ad-
journed without a debate.
The secretary of the London Swimming
Club makes the following suggestion : "To
bathe before retiring to rest, after the heat
and bustle of the day, would be a sure means
of.induoing sleep—the happy, peaceful sleep
of a child that would be an antidote to the
most of itis that flesh is air to, not forgetting
lunacy which is induced by want of sleep."
In pruning trees it is advisable to out the
branches off close to the base, as otherwise
now shoots will grow, and farther trimming
will be required next year. Every out should
be made smoothly. with a sbarp saw, and in
selecting the branches to be lopped off an eye
should be had to the form of the tree when
the work is done.

The state at' the district was con—
sidered extremely satisfactory, and
the union recently effected is working
more smoothly than its most tannest
advocates expected. Extensive re-
vivals were reported from several of
the circuits, and the district reports

This is the kind of weather to make a good

boy, and recently of Winnipeg, who
was one of the Canadiancontingeit
in Egypt—having been among the
first to volunteer in the Manitoba
quote, under the lamented dol.
Kennedy, has returned and gave us a
call on Friday last. He was taken
ill on the return voyage, and had to
remain for some weeks 'in hospital
at 'Queenstown, where he says he
received the greatest care. He is,
loud in praise of the skill and atten—
tion of Dr. Johnston, the Medical
chief of the institution, whose kind -
nese he can never forget. He says.
the Canadian' contingent on the Nile
was well treated hi every respect, and
the conduct of the men was good iu a
general way. He says the soldiers
sent oui to Egypt were the flower of
the English army, and the officers
gentlemen of the first rank, and who
did not disdain to take a hand in the
roughest work of the campaign, Mr.
Pratt' did not hear of the death of his
beloved chief, Cot Kennedy, till he
arrived at Ottawa; and as he had
intended to go with him from that
place to the 'Northwest to civilize
the half-breeds, the disappointment is
all the sadder. 'Notwithstanding' his
roughing it among the Nile cataracta
and his recent illness, Mr. Pratt is by
no means a mummy, but rugged and
healthy, and thinks himself good for
half a dozen half-breed rebels yet.—

(Mr. Pratt is also a former resideut
of Exeter, having kept hotel here
some years ago. He intends giving
Exeter a visit before he returns to hie
home in M'anitoba.)
