People who ohooso to buy from hawkers, instead of from responsible business men, deserve but little pity if they come out at the "small end of the horn." There are few of aur merchants in any line of business who aro making too great profits, and it is absurd to suppose that the door -step merch- ant can offer any better value than the legi- timate trade. The undersigned begs to announce to the people of Exeter and surrounding villages that he has sold out hie baking bnsinese to Mr. E. Bossenberger, late of Loudon, who will continue the business in all its branches. I would also tender my hearty thanks to all my customers for their very liberal patron- age while in business here, and bespeak a continuance of the same to my successor. J, R. EVANS. An item is going the rounds of the press warning people to look out for 51 bills which have been raised to 52, by tearing the 52 mark off the corner of 52 bilis and neatly pasting them over the corners of the 51 bilis. We, fail, however, to see where there is any- thing gained by the device, as the e2 bill from which the figures would be taken would he destroyed and the person would only have a 52 instead of a 52 and a 51 after he had raised the 51 to a 52. An entertainment mediae cream social was given under the auspices of the Exeter Divi. sion, Sons of Temperance, in their hall, on Monday evening last. A very pleasant (time was spent, the only thing detracting from the enjoyment of those present, being the intense,heat, but after the ice cream was serv- ed, the people appeared to he cooler. The following persons took part in the pro- gramme and each performed their part in a manner alike satisfactory to the audience and creditable to themselves :—Miss E Pick- 00 Mr.Il.Roe as 1M, Pick- ard, and Roberts, each;r 11QP.

Cut the Thistles Anyone who drives into the country jest now will be impressed with the fact that the law 2egarding the cutting of Canadian :'this - ties is very imperfectly enforced. This is the fault of farmers, thistle inspectors and township councils. What is the use of hav- ing a law if it is not carried out 2 The Le. gielature has done all it eau, It remains for those interested to parry out its inten- times. The greatest sooprge of the Canadian farmer to -day is the Canada" thistle.

Mr. Samuel Gable, of Kilmana, kith., formerly of this place, has sold his reeidauoe on Fried -street, to Mr. Cook, of Zurich, who intends moviug to oar thriving little village. Harvestrug is now in full blast, and times are somewhat dull in town. Farmers all seam well pleased with. the exaelleut crops, and aro welling to pay high wages, but men are scarce. We owe hearty thauks to the man- ager of the Temple of Industry for the excellent manner in which he superintended the repairing of side walks on the Stephen side. Pity we hadn't hie equal on the Hay side. There ie some talk among . the young people of taking in the exour- sion to Port Stanley on the 7th of August, andz'they think it would be a good idea for Dashwood to celebrate the day as a civic holiday. Several of our citizens were pres- ent at the inauguration services of the city of Stratford on the 22nd fust. They say they )rad a splendid time, but there were some sleepy heads next day, especially "Biscuits" and the driver. Mr. N. Fried has let the contract for putting rollers in the Dashwood mill, to Mr. E. P. Ellie, of Stratford, We believe we are aoiug so have a No. one mill, for he is putting in 8 sots of rollers. Millwrights are ex pected to commence work this week. The mill will have a oapacity of 60 barrels per day, and 'this promises a good demand for wheat this fall and winter.

As Mr. Jacob Hodgson, Lake Road, Bosangnet, was about to leave his residence with horse and buggy, the horse started rather suddenly and ran away, dumping Mr. H. in a local drain four feet deep a few rods from the house, breaking one arm and cut- ting his fans severely, smashing the buggy. Rey. G. I3. Taylor, lately of Bay- field, was robbed wbtle traveling ou an Erie traiu at four o'clock on Wed- nesday meriting last, between Lu$al o and Morrowsburg, of a gold watch and $185 in cash. Tno whole affair is a mystery, as no one was near him.' So far as we can learn no clue has been obtained to the missing property. As the gentleman was on his way to the old country the lose may mug him some iucouvenienoe. Capt. McKay and James McDou- ald, of Bayfield, while engaged two years ago fishing dtecovered a wreck and found it was the American barge Iowa, with the crew in .the rigging, which had been four daye drifting about the lake and had lost the tap- twin's wife and two children. 'They rescued the crew and cared for them until they were taken away in Ameri- can tug to Detroit. The American Government recently sent them a cheque for $20 and gold medal eaoh for their trouble. Dr. Williams of Clinton had occa- sion io go out into Goderioh township the other day, and thought he would visit some friends who wero camped along the Maitland, so he drove his horse into the water and allowed the animal to walk down stream, think - Ing it was shallow all along. All at once it struck a plane where the wat- er is about ten feet deep, and, as its legs were not that long it had to swim the buggy, partly submerged, floating along. The doctor bravely kept his iseat, although under the water, and n a few minutes dry land was reach- ed, when he dried his clothing. Our readers will remember of the unfortunate death of Mrs. T'homab Trick who fell down the steps leading into a cellar and was almost instant - killed. To quiet the unpleasant rum- ors which buey tongues have been circulating, the body was brought back from Ingersoll, where it . had been interred, and an inquest held last Friday by Dr. Worthington, of Clinton, Dr. Williams poiforming the post mortem examinatiou. The body was identified by Rev. Mr. Clark, of Ohesley, brother of the deceased, and' Mrs. Wigginton who prepared it for burial. Dr. 'Milburn testified to finding no fracture of the skull or spinal cord but the ligament at the back of the skull conuectiag with the ovine wee broken, and this would produoa cb, In big opinion, a fall snob .sa tlta'i ootid to have taken place would be euf3loisut to oaueo death is this way. Mr. Trick aadVut son Levi teati- fied to finding the body in the cellar ou the alarm ;liven by Charlotte Per- due; they took it up and raid it on the sendinbed,g for Dr. Worthington, t n ht to n but lite wee apparentiy dietiuct from the firat. ;lir. Trick recounted the mute of the previr us day, which were only of the most ordinary character, and without the retnotoat grounds on which to base the rumors.

The jury after, consideration, re- turned a verdict of accidental death. A peculiar accident happened on the farm of Mr. Miller, 3rd con. of Hullott, a few days eines. The °owe were being driven up from the pee- turo, and to hurry them along a stone was thrown at them, which struok a cow on the leg, breaking it, and ne- cessitating her being killed. Tho Riel trial opened Tuesday, at ten. Little time was consumed iist1/4 selecting a jury, as no challenges were made. Mr. Osier opened for the Crown, followed by Messrs. Fitz- patrick, Greenshields and 0. Roin: son. It is understood that the"t e: fence will be that Riel while incl . mal coudition of mind, worked strong: ly for simply constitutional agitation only, and gave way at the last, when his mind became deranged. Father Andre, from Duck Lake, will be pros- • ent ne a witness for the defence. The trial will likely be abort. It may be finishedthis week, but will probably take teu days. It is Surprising how quickly Han- ington's Quinine Wino and Iron, acting through the blood, removes alk Pimples and Blotches and produces a clear, healthy skin.
