that although he slid not believe in any

God that he lived in an age so blessed with
benevolent institutions, and thought that
it was every men's duty to provide for his
family for after his decease not only were
these provisions placing the families in
comfortable circumstances, but very often
the preventatives of misery and woe. He
compared the benevolence of the ancient
°benches under the apostles with the
inatitutions of to-clav, although the ancient
cliurches wore poor they were rioh in Be-
nevolence and prospered. He could show
no better character of benevolence than
Christ himself, for, he became poor that
we might be made rich. He did not think
benevolence without the other graces, se-
cured a soul's eternal welfare, hut that the
other graces were required. in cionemon with
this. He quoted passages from Scripture,
showing that benevolence was essential to
O christian's duty. He believed however
that benevolence should be influenced at
home first, then abroad and that everyone
in this country had abundant means of
doing so, but some are very benevolent 00.

The lecture on Jesuitism, by Rev. joseph

well sustained the reputation of the

being benefited and having their love of

flee column,
JESUITISM TAFFIED OFF.
To the Editor of the Exeter Times
DEA,R SIR: -Rev. Joseph Cook,
not ot Boston, but of Hensel', held
forth to an Elienville audience on
Friday evening last, on "Jesuitism,"
The lecturer kept pretty well in sight
of his text and gave his hearers a very
fair idea of what is already well
known, that Jeauitism is a peouliar
order of missionaries operating under
the sanction of the Romish church;
Lha e these Jesuits are formed into a
sooisty by Ignatius Loyola in 1534 ;
that they did reliant service for their
church among the wild barbarous
Indian tribes of America in softening
their savage inclinations, by teaohing
teaching them civilised customs, and
in many instances winning them oyer
to their renuroh ; that this society
developed eventually into a semi -
political society and became consider-
ed dangerous, and therefore suppress-
ed by several governments in Europe
and finally were suppressed also by
the Pope, but since taken into the
fold of the church. That for their
services the king of Franee gave them
a large tract of land in Quebec) which
of course reverted to the crown on
the suppression of the society, but
that the Jesuits still laid claim to
compensation in lieu of those estates,
etc. All this is very good and nobody
is disposed to quarrel with Mr. Cook
for his kindness for giving gratis all
this useful information but his wise
course would have been to atop there,
and not follow in the footsteps of that
fraud of all frauds -J F. Wictdows-
arid turn an otherwise useful and in-
structive lecture into a caricature and
pantomine show. It would be well
for Mr, Cook to remember that it adds
nothing to his standing
as a minister
of the gospel to resort to the tactics
of a ward politician and descend to
that miserable short sighted policy
of holding up to ridicule such honor-
ed statesmem as Sir John Maocionald,
who has seen more years of devoted
service to his country than Mr. Cook
has seen of life. It is partly excusable
for the publish ere of Grip, who make
more money the funnier their paper,
but when Ministers of the Gospel
carry them within the littered walla of
O church and thereby create merri-
ment and laughter at the expense of
honored age, it eeems to me a sacri-
lege worthy only of the pcslitical !mole-
sters in the political cafe. Mr. Cook
of course dabbled in the constitution-
al aspect of the questiou as well and
as a consequence all the one -hundred
and eighty-eight who supported the
Government wore back -boneless 'poll-
tioians tied .to Rome, devoid et' judg-
ment and worthy only of oblivron
while the thirteen are as usual held
up as fikeubjects to be placed in the
oalendeee of saints. They were men
net stihject to race prejudicee no
poIticut doilging -they in fact are
above reproach and never inspired by
unholy motives -no, no, they did not
know vvhich side their bread was
buttered, not they. Such is the
course pursued by not only Mr. Cook
but nearly all the other orators of the
day who believe that in exciting race
and °reed prejudices they are fulfill-
ing the injunctions of their divine
master. As you Mr. Editor have told
our readers before, nearly all of those
who are attempting to ins,truct the
masses upon this subject are doing so
from a purely one-sided stand point.
They are not capable more than the
rest of us to discuss the bare question
as it is- a purely legal question and
not one of race and creed, but persist
in these foolish tirdes against tbe
Jesuits and against honorable men in
high political places compared to
whom these orators are the weariest
pigmises. Mr. Coole further pointed
out a horrible thing about Jesuits
having three distinct branches -a
wonderful piece of information.
Does he not know that nearly all
societies have the same? If he does
not, and takes the trouble to inquire
he will find out. I shall not further
trespass on your valuable paper but
must say that after the lecture, taffy,
wrapt in tissue paper, was passed
around and all agree in caying that
tha external appearance of it was the
best, for the interior substance proved
revolting not only to the taste but to
the stomach. So the lecture, on the
whole presented a fine glitter of lan-
guage and contained much informa-
tion, but it was marred by those little
digressions that acted like the foreign
sitbstance in the taffy not exactly
wholesome to those who look upon
tine whole question as one for the
courts and not for the pulpit.

SPRING SHOWS.
Totho Editor of the Exeter Vows
Danes Sra: -I do not make it a yearly
practice of attending the stock fairs in
the sprieg ; but in previous years, having
heard so much concerning the partiality
red unfairness of the judges, thought I
vould this year visit as rneny of the fairs
es might be possible, and judge for my-
self as to the authenticity of the QOM -
plaints. Indeed Mr. Editor one could
scarcely have thought that judges would
so violate their trust in theawarding of
prizes to the different animals -especially
in the horse ring, as to cast laurels upon
aeimals that a child could almost !ewe
told differently. In short, the judging
this year was most ridiculous -possibly
worse than on previous oceasiens-_.and if
continued will tend to cast the spring
fair, which I eontend is a necessity, into
obscurity, inasmach as the owners of
good hoises will be above being trucked
with. The first fair I attended was at
greesall'and of all the judging
this fair led the van. In the aged
draught class there were many good
specimens in the ring; but, providing
the judges had not beeu so partial, it was
easily seen which horse merited the first
ticket. The judge -I think he was from
London -seemingly felt incompetent, or
else was too honest to go against the best
horses, and yet did not wish to offend the
directors, all of whom, or many of wham,
had horses in the ring. He asked for
assistance and two strange men -I think
also froin London -went in or were sent
irr. Matters looked suspicious. It was
not long, howeyer, before the prizes were
awarded and of all the cheering and jeer-
ing from the spectators I never heard the
like. First prize was given to "Macal-
pine"-a very fine horse, second prize was
offered to Mr, Berry, os,411tr of 'Golden
Crown," but refused, and rightfully re-
fused. I do not want to pose beyond
reason, as a judge of horse flesh, but
from what I could see and know, I must
confess that there is no comparison be-
tween "Macalpine" aucl "Golden Crown"
-the latter is in every way the superior •
of the two-a.ncl. the awarding of the first
prize to Macalpine sent a feeling of dis-
gust through my veins, and expressions of
keen disapproval were pictured on the
faces of many of my neighbors. I am
Irish and at the time gave expressions
to my feelings, and offered as a wager
$100 with a gentleman, seemingly a friend
of Mr. , that "Golden Crown '
if placed in a thoroughly impartial field,
would by many odds out.rival "Macal-
pine." He said he did not know but he
would. I at oncecame to the conclusion
that it was the man who got the prize -
not the horse. Mr. Berry did'nt happen
to be a director, nor is he au intimate
friend of one of the speeial judges who
strangely happened to be present from
London. No 1 He leaves all to his
horse which is,quite capable, if justice
is given, to court all the favors necessary.
Mr. Miller has the ticket ; Mr. Berry
has "Golden Crown" -a horse famous
where fame tells, and consequently is
better off. I might say, however, that
if the Hensel' !people wish to make a
permanent thing of the spring show, they
will have to change their ways ; not have
the Board of Directors a host of horsemen,
who, selecting a judge, expect him.
to distribute the prizes as best he or they
can among the horsee of the several di-
rectors. That wont work. The people
are too enlightened and can see through
ranch dodges. I woulcVnt bother showing
a horse in a rinet'conducted in that way
ancl I have hearcl many horsemen say that
it was their last time for Hensel]. show.
It is too bad, sthe young society had a
prosperous future before it, had it con-
duct:d matters as they should have been
conducted. Exeter show was sunilarly
characterized, but not to such au extent
as Brucefield. At the latter show some
ienorant or partial judging wee done.
8%veral horsemen, seeing how matters
were going left their horses in their stalle,
deeming it unnecessary to have thera
come snider such judges.

To the Editor of the Exeter Times
DEAR SIR: -In your paper of the 4th
inst. I flue a mistake in the report of the
meeting of the Ministerial Association of
South Huron held in the Main-st Method-
ist church, Exeter.
The Dominion Government was not
censured any more than every mart who
fn the house voted against the O'Brien
resolution. The following is the reisolu-
tion passed by the Association.
Moved by Rev. J. W. Wilson seconded
by Rev. Jas. S. Henderson, that we, the
Ministerial Association of South Huron
are one with our many brethren through-
out the. Domiuion in protesting 9.geenst
the incorporation and endowment of the
Jesuit Society in one of our provincesand
notwithstanding the recent vote in the
House of Commons, would express our
stcong belief that said Incorporation and
Endowment are not only unconstitunional
but ataolinimical to the best interests of
civil aud religious freedom in this coun-
try, and would urge that all legitimate
means be used to have such obnoxious en,
actinents removed from our statute books.
-Carried unanimously.
Youra,
E. A. Fitea, Sec.
