The Board of Trade are now endeavoring to get the merchants to allow a few hours in each week for the dspiosal of butter and eggs for cash. They propose tbatWednes- days and Saturdays be appointed market - days and that the merchants refuse to take butter and eggs in trade up till 10 o'clock on these days ; and that if they want the Product, put buyers on the market and pay cash- The merohapts have not yet agreed to this scheme, and it is difficult to say as to whether they shall. It is scarcely prob- able, however. It Costs Nothing. Persons who have a birth to register need not hold back because it costs some- thing and expenses at that time are already heavy enough. What with the doctors, nurses, visiting friends, medicines and luxuries for the patient, telegrams to friends, and other oonearrent expenditures the ave*age man generaily finds his pocket- book nearly enough empty without incur- ring any charge for merely having thedear little tootsie-wootsie's name on the clerk's list of arrivals, unions and depar- tures. A young man tendered the clerk, of a neighboring place, $2 for putting down the particulars about the stranger up at his house; and was surprised to find that no charge was made. Clerks of municipalities have no right to make any charge for these registrations. A Cricket Club.

The chattels sold well, but the real estate was bought in, the highest aotaal bid being v$100, The water for many years had not risen to such a depth in the 'Salable,' as was the: case Friday and Saturday, the result of a three day's incessant clown -pour, Cellars were also filled. Fanners take all your butter and eggs to the lig bankrupt store. They pay more for produce than any other house in town. L. H. Dieksou has purchased a beauti- ful sorrel driving horse, paying for it a good sum. The animal ie. well propor- tioned, is young, is a good driver and bids fair to grow into double the price paid, for him. Mr. McTaggart, the elder, of the London road, Usborne, was last week seized with a. paralytic stroke, rind now lies in a pre. carious condition. One of the blood: vessels ot•his head burst and the blood' clotting causes great pain. A great many cattle from the neighbor- , .ing townships stray into Exeter and are impounded. Farmers should keep a. close watch ontheir cattle and not allow them to get too far from their neighborhood Th'e Clinton New Era, in mentioning the base ball match played here on the lath, between the Clinton and Exeter clubs omits the score, and says some good'play- ing was done by the Clintortions. The score 22 5 in favor of Exeter doesn't suggest very good playing on the part of 'Clinton. At the Seaforth races a three-year old colt belonging to Mr. Geo. Turnbull, of Tuckersmith, formerly of Usborne, won first money, taking three straight heats in the colt race. This colt was sired by "Vole" owned by W. G Bissett, of Exeter. Cheapest parasols in Canada at the Big Bankrupt store. On Monday next the annual meeting of the Liberal Conservative Association of South Huron will bo held in the town hall, Exeter, at one o'clock p. m. All members of the association are respectfully request- ed to attend. The wool season opened some time 'ago, but owing to the cold spell the farmers have delayed shearing. The weather is now becoming warmer and the wool will again be marked. The prices do not range very high and are likely to decline. From 16 to 18, br possibly 19 cents will be the ruling figures. The contract for carrying Her Majesty's mails from Exeter to St. Marys daily, has been awarded to Mr. D. Spicer, of Exeter, the amount of tender being $74.5. Three days in the week Mr. Spicer will have to go via Anderson, • the other three via Metropolitan. We undetstand that he will carry passengers only. A meeting of the Middlesex County Orange Lodge was•held in London, and it was decided where the brethren will cele- brate the 72th of July. In view of the courtesy extended by the brethren from Huron in turning out in suchlarge num- bers at the celebration there last season, the local lodges will return the compliment and come to Exeter this year. Mr. G. H. Holtzman; a reader -of the TIMES, of Elkton, Huroii Co, Mich, writes us under date May 24th :—"Some quick.' work has been done in title locality of late. In the short space of 34 minutes, 30 sec. from the time the first bent was raised till the last rafter was placed, several men here completed the raising of a frame barn 40x60, with five bents. I would like to know of any men in Ontario who can beat this record." Boots and shoes of every kind at your prices at the Big Bankrupt store. The incessant rain of Wednesday, Thursday and Friday and the low tempera- ture, acted moat beneficially on vegetation, and the injurious effects of the front of Tuesday night were to a certain extent counteracted. In truth but little damage is now preeeptible in the fields and orchards; excepting to grapes and straw: - berries. The fall wheat and spring grain have come out all right, and g• asd has had a luxuriant growth, and meadows and pastures never looked better. The 33rd battalion of Huron have been called out for drill this year, at Windsor, and the Exeter company are busy getting things in shape. The Huron battalion did not expect to be called out this year, as last year they were among those called, Owing to Col, Goodman being unable to attend lie has appointed L. H. Dickson, of Exeter, commanding officer of the battal- ion, so it is said. Many who drive do not seem to under stand that the law gives the right of way to the pedestrian. A man or woman who is crossing the street et a;reguier crossing is not obliged to look out for the person who is shriving the team, but the driver is to take care not to"jostle or incommode:. a person walking. That is the law and common courtesy as well. How frequent, ly do we see teams draw a at the cross• ing and pedestrians made to pass . around them. The Bi Bankrupt store has secured a' a great deal in dress goods. Over three hundred pieces at oprices that will astonish you. St Marys is to have electric light.

The Ontario laws in this .respect—as in many others—are unjust and clo not eo fer enough. The duty of the village pound keeper is to write and post up three notices' to the effect that he holds impounded vertaiu cattle, desoribing them ; and that within a week or ten days, if they are not redeemed or repleyed they will,be sold by public auction.. This is not suheient. Many farmers do not come into town in two or three weeks ; and at all events, at this season of the year, suspecting' their cattle to be on some side line, they do not look for such notices. In the stall they would be onthe alert. In this respect the .farmers are victims of great injustice. Sufficient notice is not given of the. Ma - pounding, aiid the same may be said of the sale of the. animals. Some other and wider means .of • advertising should' be adopted—say in the newspapers most widely circulated in the neighborhood. lir. Mowat will do well, to have a change made in the law respecting the advertising of stook impounded. A number of seeing pigs for sale. Ap• ply to Wm, Bel kwill, Loudon road, south Messrs Crossley and Hunter the Evan- gelists who have been conducting services in Exeter for the past couple of weeks have thus far seen gratifying results of their labors. Upwards of 175 persons have gone forward and signified their al- legiance to the Master in the determination to pursue a more sacred course. 3 The Methodist ministers have left for Con- fetence which convenes in London this week, but, with the aid ofchurch members generally, the evangelists will continue `their work in Exeter for another week. A meeting of those interested in base- ball was held the other evening. After transacting some minor business the officers for the year were elected as fol- lows: -Hon.• Pres., Isaac Carling ; Pres., B, S. O'Neil ; Vice -Pres., N. D. Hurdon ; Secy-Treas., Jos. Senior ; Com: 1). Tait, R. Eacrett and G. Ander- sen. It was decided that the club should be called the "Exeter B4tse Ball Club.": D. Tait and the Secy. were instructed to collect all sums unpaid and solicit further subscriptions. Arragements are being made with the following clubs as regards matches: Clinton, Mitchell, St. Marys, Ailsa Craitr, Parkhill and Blyth. Monday, Wednesday and Friday evenings are the nights for practice. A • deputation was appointed to wait on the Council, in con- junction with a committee from the cricket club, in reference to recreation grounds. We have received from the publishers a copy of the Goderich Signal Star—a Board of Trade edition. The work comprises 28 pages and contains interestingand descrip- tive facts of the town's resources, and creditable' illustrations of its beauty, its public and private buildings and many of its moreprominent citizens, and is a credit' to the respective totems, the Signal and Star. Goderich is a picturesque town and we are pleased to learn that its in- habitants ase taking steps to make its advantages and grandness known to the outside world ; and we hope that their effortswill be rewarded. Like many other to ins, Goderich liar remained is lethargy too long—hoping for something unpre- cedented to turn up and revive it without any concern to the inhabitants --until they have realized the fact that in order to move out of the common r'ut•extra effort must be made on the part of the citizens generally, A meeting of the council of the Board of Trade was held on Monday ovg as per notice. Several merchants were present, and after exchanging expressions of views re .the butter and egg questiou, it was agreed thata cash market be established in Exeter for the sale of these articles of produce, the merchants reserving the privilege of acceptiug, for cash or trade, all batter and eggs that night be taken to their stores and offered. This question has been settled and now efforts will beput forth to establish a system of "cash for Butter and eggs." Several communi- cations were received from persons desiring locations for manufacturing con- cerns. The secretary of the .hoard of Trade' is in -correspondence with these persons, and as matters in this connection develop, we: will keep our readers posted. The secretary was also instructed to write to the Grand Trunk railway and Express authorities concerning the recent heavy increase in express and freight sates.. Another meeting will be held on Friday evening next. s .49' 9 Special Announcement. We have made arrangements with Dr. B. S.

The Ministerial Association of S. Arron met in the slain St. methodist church., Exeter. at its regular monthly meeting last Monday. Thele, was a good attendance or members. After the minutes of the last meeting were read the Rev. II. T. Crossley was introduced to •the Association and asked to sit as a corresponding member. Tho Revs. Martin and Motlennel wore appointed delegates to the Anti -Jesuit' conven- tion to beheld in Toronto next week. inose delegates were instrueted to obtain some pro- minent speaker to lecture in this neighborhood,. The Rov. Mr, Bridgeman then read a paper setting forth some of -the erominent features of the ohristianity of thepresent cdtty, 'special- ly'mentioning conformity to worldly amuse- ments and the zeal shown in revival efforts An interesting discussion followed in which the Position that ministers should .take with regard to amusements was well discussed. The. members not taking by any means, a puritani- eel position. A profitable time was also spent discussing the benefifbf special services. The dilferent•ohurches all admitted both by practice and theory, their benefit, but differed as to the method ot conducting them. It was unanim- ously felt that mere excitement should be en- tirely discarded. Revs. E.A. Fear and I, H.

Sin. —May I ask the attention of the very few Methodi.•.t ministers in this colony who sympathi o with the Irish Home Rule moven . t to the fo lowing extract from a paper published lately by one of their brethren in Ireland, the Bev Thomas Pear - sun, Lurgan :—"Irish Methodists do not regard Home Rule as a question of party politics, but as a change in the constitution. The Home Rule of the future must be judged by the Home Rule ot the present. Mr. Gladstone's testimony to Home Rule boycotting is 'The Breed of boycotting, like every other creed, requires a sanction, and the sanction of boycotting, that stands in the rear of boycotting, and by which alone boycotting can be made thoroughly effective, is the murder which is not de- nounced,' This testimony is one. The essence of boycotting is intolerance, result- ing in lawlessness and crime. Its mid- night crimes and murders are many, and not all the vigilance of the Government can in eve ry case shield its victims. It is said that the natural privilege of self-govern- ment belongs to all true manhood. But Ireland has self-goyernment at present. She takes her full share m the government of the United Kingdom. What Home Rulers propose to do is to give up self- government And this proposal is made in the name of liberty, true manhood, and patriotism. Tt is said that there are Metho- dists, men of reading, intelligence, and piety, who are in favour of National Govern- ment. Men of reading, intelligence, - and piety infavour of a government based on Sabbath desecration, intolerance and crime ! This is impossible. No true Liberal, no true Christian, no true Methodiet could be in favour of such a Government. If there are men calling themselves Methodists in favour of this kind of government in Irb- laud:or elsewhere they .should seriously consider their position and cease . to dis- grace a Church, the character of which has li;therto been without a stain."
