Mr. Clarke would not be without the TntrE$, and;says it read each week with much interest, Such letters and enclosures' make the editor smile, but remittances from those of our readere who are years behind would cause a "great big stnerk:' All do their best, The date- on the label of your paper shows the date to which your subscription. is paid, so you Deed not wait until you receive a request through the snails. Like most other businesses .t requires money to run it, and the more en- couragement given in a substantial way, as above, the easier will it be for us to "get up" a good local paper. Baseball The game of ball on Friday last be- tween a number of the band and, apicked team • of . Exeter, was keenly contested. Owing to the pito hour at which the game was called only five innings:wee% played. The band boys led off in a pleasing way givine evidence of viototy being on their side. They batted the ball vigorously and in field work acquitted ;themselves very creditably, the pitcher putting the balls in such an' artistic way as to prevent the "Unknowns" getting many bases , for a time. Finally the "Unknowns" got warmed up, andbecoming acquainted with the pitcher's way of placing the balls, commenced to score more to their satis- faction, making six home bases in the fifth inning. Some., good batting was done by players of beith sides. Following is the score by innings 12345 "Musical Nine" 3 0 0 '1 3-7 "Unknowns" 21 11 6-11 isblessed. ed. .honey at home.

He is a beautiful roan gelding and will mature to 16 hands, His gait is perfect; even uniform, long and steady with the far-reaching stride of his sire, and excellent qualities. ` He is as lever headed as an old campaigner.

Exeter people are especially pleased to see this horse making such a good showing; and wo compliment Mr. .Ilawkshaw on bong the possessor of such horse -flesh. Leaving out of sight the drought, has there been in the recollection of the "oldest inhabitant" more beautiful weather than this section of Ontario has experienced for the past fortnight?

Merchants report an exceptionally good day, the best for many months ; and are a unit in accepting the lively business on the market as a cause. The ruling prices were $1.00 and 51.02 ; and these figures have been paid ever since. Farmers from near Seaforth, St. Marys and Parkhill were noticed on our streets, and all seemed favorably impressed with the affability and straight -forwardness of the buyers. A -Hibbert farmer said, that last week he went to his accustomed mar- ket, which is Seaforth, with the impres- sion that he was going to get the price quoted in the market reports of, the local papers ; but instead, got four cents less. He came to Exeter next day and received four cents more than in Seaforth. Sever- al instances of the same and worse treat- ment conicl be given. Farmers ale; not slow to discover the best market.
