Oficitet, On Friday last the Parkhill cricket club visited town and hacl a game with the home team. \Vickets were pitched shortly after 11 o'clock, when the visit, ore took the Willow, Exeter having won tho toss, and elected to take the field, J. Elliot and C. McDonell did the bowl- ing for Exeter, which proved very ef- fective, no one of the batters obtaining more than 3 runs, Parkhill's scorefor the inning only amounting to 15 runs. W. E. Harding and I. R. Carling then faced the Parkhill trundlers, Begg and Ross, and ran up 15, when Carling was 'deem bowled by I3egg, having ran up his nine very nicely. Batter after bat- ter then joined the old stand-by, Mr. Harding, who wasplaying good cricket, and having his form greatly admired' by the visitors. Re was unfortunately run out after making the score of the day, viz : 31. With this exception and J. Elliot's 14, no one .obtained double -fig- ures. The inning closed with the good score of 83 runs. Parkhill's 2nd inning showed greater want of practice than even ,:the 1st, they being all disposed of for 13 runs ; thus leaving the home team 54 runs ahead, with an inning to spare. Below is the score :- maxima. first Inning.

A meeting of the: Board of Trade was held in the town hall last evg The t t- teudance was not as good as it should have, been, though themeeting was an animated one: • While gettiug out of a buggy the other day lJis. iiem.p's dress caught on the seat and she was tluown face downward to the grouod, but fortunately escaped with a black. eye. Mr. Caleb Heywood is improving the Luxton property, by erecting a new fence around the promises. The style is ' now and of his own idea and makes a substan- tial and attractive fence. Word has been received from the Edu- cational Department that all those who were passed provisionally at the recent entrance examinations, have been allowed by the Department.

Messrs. Wood & fiallentyne shipped two loads of export cattle from Exeter to Montreal on Monday. Judges pronounce the shipment one of the hest Trade for some time .-14Fr, John Willis shipped a load of prime cattle on Monday ; and Mr. Jas. Oke a load on Thursday last. The Sabbath school of the James-st Methodist church picniced in Pickard's grove yesterday afternoon. They formed into classes at the church and marched to the grounds, where all kinds of games and amusemeuts were indulged in. At a meeting of the Board of Health on Monday evening a motion to have •the owners of premises which are in a poor sanitary state, as reported by the inspec- tor, served with notices, to compel such persons to fill up cesspools and remove outhouses, and have all night sod proper- ly attended to in future, was uuanimously passed. A Dunlop Correspondent writes :-G- A. Hyndman, one of the rising merchants of Canada's Devonshire coming City of Exeter, gave relatives here a visit last week. G. A's pretty Texan pony, which he drove about with, was the cause of much admiration amongst all who saw it From a field of 20 acres, Mr. Jacob Ruby, of the 13th concession, Hay, thresh- ed 524 bushels of wheat. The wheat' is of the white variety and will make excellent. seed. The idea that the wheat crop in this section was going to be short this year will now be entirely expelled. Miss Tillie White and Mrs JP Ross and child, who were on their way to St. John, INT. B., were aboard the train whose ex- press coach was totally destroyed and one of its occupants killed, by an explosion, when a short distance from Quebec. They sustained no injury, neither was any of their baggage destroyed. They arrived at St. John Monday evg. after experiencing several annoying delays, and speak in poor terms of the G. T. R. by which route went. Some idea of the loss the county will sustain this year by the destruction of the fruit crop may be gathered from the ex- tensive business'tiansacted last year by two persons alone, Messrs. Cantelon and Steep, of Clinton, who shipped 33,000. barrels of fruit from Huron alone and paid out altogether, for barrels, fruit, &c., some $55,000. As there were other buyers be- sides these persons, it will show that the loss is enormous. Messrs. Cantelon & Steep left for Lambton county on Monday, where the apple crop is good, and will immediately proceed to buy and ship. Division Court Inspector, J, Dickey; Esq., of Toronto, paid the 5th division, here a visit on Wednesday last. This was is first visit in fifteen years ; and after carefully examining the books of the clerk, Thos. Trivitt, Esq,, and those of the bailiff, Johu Gill, Esq., he made expres- sions of being pleased with the manner in which all books and papers had been kept, and complemented these officers in the highest terms, He went so far as to say that cleaner or betterkept record, files and books could not be found anywhere. This speaks well for the'eflioiency of the officers cf the 5th division court and we join their many friends in extending com plimenti. In this balmy month of roses, of soda water and typhoid baccili, the average young lady ariseth after supper andsaitb "What, lo, where shall I get me a youth who will buy the ice cream ?" And lo, on the corner she seeth one of the foolish, a gilded -haired blond. of the tribe of Blow - it -in, with ,seventy-five kopecks m bis pocket and azi intellectual look set in his forehead. And straightway' they hie; to the place of the frozen cream and the vanilla flavoring. And they devour not only one plate of each but many. And that yonng man goeth home sad, with a heavy heart, and standeth off his evaslier- woman fora season, and that young lady betaketh herself to a room and the cramps tie her in large, wavy bow -knots for the space of six hours, and her parents sigh as they make her engulf herself with brandy and fusel oil to untangle the kinks in her larnyx and cause the machinery of her in- terior to move' with a less irritatidg " and malice aforethought motion. • Brussels vs. Exeter, The game at ,Seaforth yesterday be- tween the Brussels and Exeter baseball teams, for $100 a side and the cham- pionship of Huron, was well attended, the quota from Exeter being very large. The day was all that could be desired, and a good game web witnessed, some sharp playing being dens by both teams The grounds being rather small a few balls wereknocked over the fence by the Brussels playera. Nine innings were played, the score resulting in favor of 'f3russeis by 10 to 14, 'I`hs utmost good feeling prevailed, and tho boys speak Well of the impartiality of the umpire, Mt,', Alex Murdoch, Of Goderieh, as also of the treatment accorded thein by the citizens of ;S'saforth, Both teams did their best) 'Brussels in the 8r'd inning mak leg Ave. Where wail tire )Polios?

The result was that both were far worse battered than either Sullivan or Eilrain was in the recent brutal prize fight in the southern states, Both are badly cut' about the head and. face.

We publish the following rules for' the guidance of the public : 1, If you ask for mail, and are told there is none, say there ought to be ; then go, home, and Send the rest of the family ab different tunes during the day, 2. Don't bring your letters to the office until the mail closes, then curse the 'postmaster' for not opening the bag and putting your letters in it: 3. When you want a stamp on your letter, tell the postmaster to pub it an. If he don't do it, thrash him ' ; in case you put it' on yourself, hold it in your mouth enough to remove the mucilage;' it will then stop ou until it is dry, '4. If you have a box, staid and drum ou it until the postmaster hands out your nitlil ; it makes hit. feel good, especially when he is waiting on 'somebody else. 5.

RICHARD PIO ARD, Base Ball Tips, .A. game of base ball was played here on Saturday last between the "Irish Nine" of Lucan and the "Exeter Base Ball Team." The game was called at 3 o'clock. Exeter won easily by a score of 21 to 7, with one inning to spare. The playing on the part of Exeter was excep tionally good, while Lucan handled themselves creditably.' The difference in the score is accounted for by the excel- lence of the Exeter team. The double plays from Elliot to Eacrebt, thence to Anderson; and from.B+lliot to Eacrett, thence to McDonald were brilliant and brought forth rounds of applause. The fly catch of McDonell was the play of the day, being a difficult one, and his agility was admired by all. -Geo. An- derson while playing first 'base, had his hand badly cut in trying to capture a low and difficult ball. He was placed in the field, Carling taking first base, which the lattercreditablyfilled, Thos. Oke made the best hit of the season but being a foul availed but little. Bissett of the Lucan team handled the stick with much' force; there being to his creditahome run and two"two-baggers." The Lucan team played a good. "all round" game, but were unable to become acquainted with Tait's curves. The Lucan boys are a friendly lot of fellows, and it gives the Exeter team pleasure to meet them, -We were pleased to see the familiar face and bright counten- ance of Mr. A. Stanley again on the diamond. -We are informed that the Ailsa Craig team has challenged or is about to issue a challenge to the Exeter team for a game in the near future. - Some weeks ago the Brussels team chal- lenged Exeter to play for the champion- ship of Huron and • $100. Exeter although not wishing to play for money, and yet having a desire to meet Brussels, the champions of Huron, accepted the challenge, the snatch taking place at Seaforth yesterday. Result will be found elsewhere. -It is expected that a match will take place shortly between the members of the Exeter and Credi- ton bands, in Exeter. The game will be a good one, and the contest exciting, as some good players being to either organization. -The Mitchell team will soon pl'iy the return match at Exeter. Mitchell team although beaten by Exeter in the earlier part of the meson has not lost a game in the Perth league this season. -Mr. Jos. Davis, Exeter's authority on base ball umpired the game satisfac- tion Saturday last to the entire e ac- s f tion, of both temps, not a single dispute arising. What Joe don't know about base ball there are few who are wiser in this repect.-Mr. Alex. Murdock of Goclericlr formerly of Lucan umpired the game between -Brussels and Exeter at Seaforth yestezday, he being Brussels' 'choice. 0TICE.
