J .¢ H,rrl:s. Tcttlnewety, On Friday last (24th) as two young gentlemen, of Blyth, were driving down plain street, in Exeter, their horse took fright at a passing bicycle, and turning sharply to one side turned the buggy com- pletely upside down and threw the ocou- pants outon their heads. The young men were not injured, but the buggy was con- siderably broken. The horse freed itself and galloped but a short distance before being caught. The Frost, The weather last week was unusually cold for the time of the year, the nights being exceptionally so, Each morning people interested iu grains, fruits and vegetables, arose early and anxiously ex- •.amined their fields and gardens. 1 erten- ettely the frost did but little damage, the vegetables and spring grains faring worst, the fruit escaping injury. Any damage •done has been, in the greater part,retrieved by the recent rains, and unsatisfactory rvesults are not anticipated lest the low temperature returns. Since the above was put in type we have had another visitation .of the frost, and on 'Tuesday night every thing'perishable was cut down, the young 'fruit being killed entirely. Personal.

Men's and Boys Ready Made Suits at less than regular wholesale prices at the Big Bankrupt Store' The various streets throughout the town are beginning to look quite cheerful and verdant Quite a number of citizens have improved their premises and cleaned up generally. Twenty.fourth passed by and the celebea- tion too, with very few drunks being recorded. A couple:of extreme cases were taken in hand by the police and the offend- ers made serve a term in the "cooler" for their obstreperousness. Prints, Cbambrays, Mullins, Embroider res and Parasols, all away down in price at the Big Bankrupt Store. Last week Mr. Ford's horse at Wood- ham ran away, and upsetting the ve- hicle precipitated Mr. Ford onto the road, dislocating an arm and breaking several ribs. Mr. John Carrick, who has for several years acted as editor and reporter of the Chatham Banner, will leave iu a few weeks to fill a position on the Hand ton Times about, to be made vacant:" Mr. Carrick is an old Exeterite. • It was reported that the contract for the conveyance of Her Majeety's mails between Exeter and St.Marys had been awarded.. The report is unfounded, the department not having as yet decided among the various routes tendered for in this service. Mr. Wm. Howard has completed the brickwork of what will be a very hand- some residence, on Main -street. 12r. Howey's residence is progressing rapidly. To take a walk along the various streets, it is surprising to notice the large number of new brick residences that are being built.

Those interested in the organization of a cricket club in Exeter, met in the.. town hall last evening and elected officers. There is a large and good membership and it is expected that ere long, Exeter will be able to produce a team second to none in the West.' Particulars with officers elected, will be given next week. Base -hall is popular here this season A good team ' has been chosen, and with little, yet diligent, practice, the members will do themselves and the club generally, great credit. The match on the 24th was demonstrative of what they can do. Each man handled himself with that alacrity and correctness which are val- uable in the make-up of a base -ball team. Highest price for Butter and Eggs at the Big Bankrupt Store, and 50 cent tea for 25 cents, The other day a horse driven by Mrs. Wm. Batman, of Usborne, who was ac- companied by a Miss Cooper, ran away ; and going through a couple of fences smashed the rig considerably. The occu- pants of the buggy were but slightly in- jured, having been thrown out before the first fence was reached" Mr. John Atkinson is home from Chicago. He metwith an accident a short time before leaving. While engaged at a circular saw one of the employees in Balkwill & Co's furniture factory, was busy bringing in timber ; and while pass- ing Mr. Atkinson, an end of the stick struck his arm, and knocking his hand against the saw three fingers were severed. Ye now carries the hand in a sling. See our new Dress Goods they are the cheapest and prettiest in town, Richard Picker cl. - :The fishing season has opened at the lake, snd some good catches are being made. Exeter is daily visited by the fish vendors, many of whom, wo notice, are offerug for sale, white fish the size of small herring. The fish are doubtless of last year's fry, and to catch and offer thetas for sale is against the rules of the fisheries department. Our friends at the lake had better beware. A violation of the law in this respect is punishable with severe penalty. For a first class suit of clothes at the right price and a perfect fit try Richard Pickard, Another swindle presents itself, design- ed to catch unsuspecting ladies. ,A sharp• er advertises for ladies to address envelopes at their homes, the advertiser offering to furnish stationery and postage and pay one cent for each envelope addressed.

On Friday last, John Vail, of London, came to Exeter . to spend Her Majesty's Birthday and take in the sports. He had not boenin town long before' he began quarreling with another Londonfte, against whom he had a grn;lge.

The marches played by the bands were well executed and appreci- ated by the spectators. The dogs attracted attention. There wore some 15 in number, and each was led by a boy in character costume. There fol- lowed two tall executioners for non winners at dog race who wore appropri- ately attired and who lilted their parts :well. Last but.not least in the pro- cession was the platform wagon, on which the Mugville Negro Mutation Horne was illustrated bypractical scenes. There were several darkies composing the gathering and all seemed to enjoy themselves and did so in cuioh a manner as to raise much outhiissasm among the spectators. The procession was not long but was good, and atter being mar- shalled through ,the principal streets was halted at the town hall, where the reeve, Dr. Rollins, delivered a terse and eloquent address of welcome. : The bands then marched to the base- ball grounds, followed by a goodly por- tion of the crowd; and after getting matters in shape a -game of base ball was played between the Clinton and Exeter clubs.The: game, was a walk- away on the part of Exetor, 'and there being no sport in witnessing. such, the crowd soon dispersed. The Exetor boys played well and soon told that the Clin- ton club was no match for them, The Clintonites have no battery and they are ' muffy" in the field.

Portraits Flee. —�— A Chicago firm are issuing thousands of plausible circulars offering an enlarged portrait free, to advertise their business in the respective localities. A large num- ber of these circulars wore received at the Exeter Post Office last week for citi- zens ofthP town., An exchange in comment• ing on the circular, so accurately describes our views on it that we cannot do better than quote from it as follows : "This looks pretty and reads smooth on paper, but the fact that the Co. make the same offer to a score or more of people in the same place suggest that there is an Africa'. lathe woodpile. After you have sent in your order and photo you receive. another circular from the company, containing cuts of what appear to be very handsome and costly frames. The necessity of framing your portrait, and the great advantage of ordering your frame from the Co. is referr- ed to in a plausible style that is very apt to accomplish the object desired. The prices of the frames range from $15 to $20. When the portrait arrives, which may not happen for several months after giving yoar order, it on first appearance looks all right, but on close examination the portrait will be found to be a cheap crayon daub, and the frame a gilded delusion. People who expect solnethiuiefor nothing generally get left, and it is a safe rule to have no - kind' thing to do with all such schemes of this —�-- The First Act a Failure. At alate'meetiug of the Board of Trade, the first question which the council chose, for the purpose of enacting and Mermen business circles, was that of endeavoring to get the merchants to discontinue 'the purchashing of butter and eggs ; and a deputation was appointed to interview the yarious dealers. The interviews have taken place, but with little success -some of the merchants agreeing not to handle the produce while a greater number will not consent to abandon the trade. In a small place like Exeter it is hard to deter- mine whether the proposition as advanced by those who have the matter in hand, would work. The merchants here, depend principally on country patronage, and while the handling of the butter and eggs. is considered little work, they realize a small profit on the goods given in trade as. well as on batter and eggs when disposed of to shippers. As far as Exeter is con corned, we feel certain that the farmers can do as well with their produce -or nearly so -as with 'the cash. The "coin - petition between the merchants is keen and all will vie with one another as to giving the highest prices and the best possible value in return.. We have a cash market for these articles, and if farmers think they can do better by disposing of their produce there they are at liberty to do so ; and if they choose to go direct to the merchants, why, allow them to do so. - o Postal Changes. There have been some very important changes made in thepostal regulations which do not appear tohe generally known or understood and wetake this opportunity of bringing them to the notice of our readers, The most important change is that of increasing the letter weight from a half canto to one ounce and making the registration charge uniformly five cents instead of 2 cents for domestic and 5 cents for foreign. The charge for drop letters is one cent as before in all places except in cities for dilivery by letter carriers. Book Post to the U. S. is ono cent for every two ounces, instead of four oz's. A very important change has been made in the regulationconcerning domestic Book Post, Printed matter and packages of seeds, cuttings, bulbs, roots orgrafts and patterns, or samples aro still carried for one cent per four ounces, while on book or newspaper manuscript, printers', proof sheets, whether corrected or not, maps, prints, drawings, engravings, litho- graphs, photographs, sheet music, either printed or written, documents partly printed or written, not being lettere, such as deeds, insurance policies or other docu- ments of a like nature, • the rate of postage is one cent for each two oz's or fraction of two oz's. Thei a is an initial prepayment of 5 cents en legal matter and of 2 cents on samples addressed to the U, S. Parcels may be sent by post to Groat Britain, the rate being $5 cents per pound, or fraction of a pound. The rate of postage an letters to New South Wales, Tasmania, Vietoria, and Queensland, and also to New Zealand, via San Francisco, has been reduced to 12 cents.
