The Evangelists. Owing to the exceedingly hot weather the Rev. Messrs. Crossley and. Hunter will complete their labors in Exeter this week, when they, in company with some friends, will preceed to one or the northern summer resorts to spend the hot weather in recuperation. During their stay here it is estimated that 300 persons will have been converted. On 'Sunday Rev. Mr. Crossley preached a special sermon to the men of Exeter. The congregation was large, and he tendered his hearers some good advice. The evangelists have been heard to say that the male portion of Exeter, with regard to morality, is ahead of any town. they have as yet visited, The young men as a rule are virtuous. This opinion is quite current throughout Ontario but nevertheless Messrs. Crossley and Hunter have the thanks of the men of Exeter for such expressions of good opinion. Next Sunday services in the Main at. Methodist and Presbyterian churches will be dispensed with and union services held in the James st. church.

Mr Sutton made application for 95 per week extra for keep of Samuel Ford, being a total of $30 per month for his keep. Action deferred. A deputation of the Board of Trade, consisting of Messrs. ParkinSon, arigg, Fanner and Archer—Mr Archer spokes- matt—interviewed the council concerning the establiehieg of a cash 'market for butter and eggs. The follawing resolu- tion of the 'Beard of Trade explains the matter:--- "That in the opinion of the council and the merchants assembled, it is desirable that a Cash Market should ba established on certain days of the week, for the sale of butter and eggs and other farm pro- duce ; but that merchants should not be debarreni frorn either paying in eash or trade for preduce delivered at their res- pective stores." The deputation'in accordance with the above, urged that the Council appoint the forenoon of every Wednesday, and Satur- day as the time for holding this market, recommending that the sitaa.tion be in the qicinity of the Town hall. -The, matter in hand was fully and. plainly' explained by the deputation the several members beteg aecorded a chance ta addtess the Council. Summing up the 'different lights in. which the tnatter was put, we find that their object is to establish a cash market fol butter and eggs • and if that works satis- factorily to inclu:de Other branches of pro, duce. The merchantaZwould not be de- barred front purchasing. The deputation were of the opiniot) that something, in the line should be done in order to attract customers who go to aft town e and villages. They requeste geoutiai to establish the naatkat if only to give the scheme it trial.' - Councillors Pickard, Carling mid Mc - Catlin Were' OppOSM to the rettaest on varioup grounds. Mr. Pinkard would not entertain their ideas, but simply eaid he Could and would bity-at the Iiiittrarprices, all butter and eggs that came in ble, way, putetyg.h.etati$00orst,,:ive %Jade: his Ur McCallum' was uppoLtda to tb,frte-cee on the grounds that the town was not sufficiently ripe -for such a departure, and the merchants too dissentive. If they were aIl a unit on the matter of support- ing rightly and encouragiug such a market regularly constituted, he would lend his assistance toward .having one established ; but under the eircuinstances would at present oppose it. Mr. Carling was in part in favor of es- tablishing the market asked for, but would not give his consent to having the town hall used as a Triarket building. , The oilier members of the council were heartily in favor of having a market es- tablished at the town hall, and thought it a step in the right direction. The farmers could come to town early, dispose of their produce for cash and go -to the stores and possibly 'clo better with cash in hand. This side of the question was strongly argued, but after considerable deliberation action was deferred. In the meantime our merchants are paying the highest prices in cash for produce and farmers will find that Exeter is the place to do business. Competition is keen and things generally are booming. Moved by T B Carling, seconded by Mr McCallum that the clerk procure necessary plank for culverts '• also scant. ling for new side -walk avhich is to be erected from Braund's furniture store to the Trivitt Memorial church. The coma • missioner was instructed to repair the culverts requiring same. , Mark Clarke left his boarding house procured for him by the council, and re, quested Mr. Walters to keep him. In this connection Mr Walters waitedupon the Couacil to ascertain what was to be done ; he could not keep him and receive no- thing for bis board. Mr. Walters said that as Mr Clarke desired to remain with him he would agree to furnish him a cer- tain amount of work and pass his wages`to the credit of the council. No actibn tvall taken other than for the constable to eni quire into Ur. Clarlte's ease, and return him to his proper boarding house, The Conntissioner was instructed not to do any private gravelling for persons who might desire it. The Commissioner repotted that he had repaired. Mr. Brovvniug's sidewalk, and at (35 cents was to be charged and col- leeted from him, for half day's work. The Oottneit adjourned to meet on Thursday evg . 27th ;Tune. There is sonic ream' in allovving thistles to nearly complete their growth before plowing them nutlet if the plowing is done without euttieg off the top. The sappy green herbage rots rapidly under the fur- row in June, and being still in connection with the roots helps to rot that also. If the plant fa in flower it hi all the better, as it shows that the root is to some extent exhausted and cannot recover quickly. 13at if the 'plowing is done late in the season, extra care west be taken to sup. mese every vestige 6f green thistle all the summer. Two or three months of entire smothering from air and light will kill thiaaes better than half.liear led cultivation eXtendieg from early spring till late in fall.

The deceased was looking atter their interests when last taken ill ; but being of a thoroughly active and pushing temperament he did not give up uutil to late—his constitution had been over taxed and he was irreparably broken down. He took ill in London, but recovering somewhat was brought to Exeter, and. he still kept getting better.

There are a great many people scatterecl over ehis broad land who seem to have an idea that newspapers are run solely for the fun of the thing, and that an editor can live on air like a chameleon, that material does not cost much, and that they ought to be thankful that the dear people take their paper and remain deadhea.ds. They neyer take a business view of the matter, nor think once, that it osts as much to finish and equip evert it small country office as it does to stock it grocery, and requires as much help, or niore than that required by the average grocer. Who ever heard of a merchant giving people yard of print or a paper of pins just for the fun of having some one Bay he is a good fellow. Did you ever hear of it grocer giving away tea, sugar, coffee or anything else for the Faille 1055031? It requires money to engage in any .kind of business, and the newspapers are no excep- tion. Invested capital might to be so managed as to enable the investor to make a living out of the profits and labors. Under these circumstances to ask a news- paper for a puff and tatty only in thanks, should be balanced by taking Buser, tea, coffee, dry goods, ete., and pay in thanka'. Mr. Jos.
