Death of Mrs, Samuel Ooliblediclr. We regret to announce the death at the ege of 65 years, of Mrs. Samuel Cobble - dick of Exeter, which occurred at an early hour on Wednesday May 7th, the anniversary of the death of her daughter, Mrs. W. T. Galloway, of Adelaide, who elied just one year previously, For some time Mrs. Cobbledick's health has been precarious, and successive illness had in- duced a general weakness of the constitu. tion. A short time ago she suffered from an attack of La Grippe, the effects of which never seemed to leave her. She was, however, improving and it was hoped the warm weather would effect a complete recovery. But about two weeks ago she was seized with an attack of erysipelas in the face which acting upon her already enfeebled constitution, reduced her, and despite the best medical aid proved fatal. Her last sickness, during which she suffer. ed severe pain, was borne with Christian. fortitude and her end was peace. Deceas- ed was born in the western part of Ireland on the 12th Nov. 1824, With her father's family she came to this country in early life and settled in the county of Durham. Forty-seven years ago she was married to her now deeply bereaved husband. In 3S85 they moved west to the 1st concession sof McGillivray, where they resided until they retired from active live twelve years ago, when they f then came to live in Exeter. Of their family, besides the daughter already mentioned, five died in early childhood, while the following four remain, David Cobbledick, of McGillivray; .Joseph Cobbledick, of Biddul h ; Mrs. A. ;fli k lt' '1 a "e • and pp v o s of is vi 1 Rev. U. H. , g , Cobbledick, of Guelph. Mr. Cobbledick. and his family willhave the sympathy of a very large circle of friends and acquaint- ances, among whom they are held in high esteem.

This is right. No one can help it along more than the custo- mers. ustomers. Make your purchases early and give the clerks a chance to breathe a little fresh air. The Sanitary Inspector is looking sharp after back yards, and has given notice that all must be cleaned before May 5th. That date has coma and gone and any premises found to be in any other than a perfectly sanitary condition is liable to be put right at the owner's expense.

The editor raised him- self up and gasped."tis false ! we have the largest circulation in the country." Then he sank back upon his pillow and died w with a triumphant smile upon ,his, face. He was consistent to the end. On Friday last the teachers and scholars of the school went to considerable trouble inbeautifying the ground by making beds and pianting flowers. On Sunday some destructive youths destroyed the plants and beds, besides throwing stones through the school windows. The Board had a meeting on Monday evening, and what action is to be taken in the matter remains to be learned. A reader writes ; Can poll tax be legally collected from a man who works in the town on and off for a year and over, but who has property in another town on which he has paid taxes and has a receipt for the same ?

On Saturday last the town was visited by a couple Italians with harp and violin who paraded thestreets and played sweet music to the attentive listener ; they did not forget at intervals to pass around the hat for the free will offering.
