Accident.
Mr. J. H. Northcott, baker, of this
place, had the misfortune to Meet with
a. painful accident one day last week.
fie was, out delivering bread and called
a Mr. Frank Anderson where he picked
sip a rifle which was loaded, and going
outside, fired it off. He loaded it again
and apparently left the trigger up, his
hand also being over themuzzle of the
rifle, when by a slight jar, the weapon
'!rent off, the ball passing through one of
Mr. Northcott's fingers and badly injur-
ing his hand,
Not Satisfied with a Few.
On Sunday afternoon last, while Mi
and Mrr. Georgo Brooks were at church,
five young scamps entered their flower -
garden and plucked and destroyed
all of the beautiful flowers. Not
being satisfied with the damage they had
done outside, they got into the house by
asoma means and even picked the flowers
off the indoor plants besides breaking
the pots. Mrs. rooks finding out the
names of some of them, went to them
allthat were there. On
told
w
and w
of the young rascals had the imperti-
nence to tell her to shut her mouth, or
he would slap it. Mrs. Brooke had one
of the choicest flower-gardens.in Exeter,
but now scarcely a flower ten be seen.

Me. Wm. Atkinson, in the employ of
S!r; J'.ns. Dignan, blacksmith, of this place,
met with an accident a few days ago. He
was welding a piece of iron when the tongs
turned in his band and the iron collided
with bis face, giving him a severe burn
over the left eye.
In the election of 1586 West Huron gave
337 majority for the Mowat candidate;
East Huron, 443; South Huron, 507—a
total of 1,287. In the last election West
Huron gave 112; East Huron, 170; South
Huron, 158—a malonity of 430, reducing
the former majority by 827, or by two-
thirds.
Mr. James Dignan, who has been con-
fined to his house through piuerisy, owned
a dog which was greatly attached to him.
He was always ready in the morning to
accompany his, owner to his work and to
return ; but from the time Mr. Dignan
took sick and was confined to his room, the
dog refused to enter the house or take any
food, from the effects of which he died the
other day.
The Synod of Huron opened in St. Paul's
Cathedral, London, on Tuesday morning
at ten o'clock. A considerable amount of
business is to be transacted. The Bishop
of Kentucky was expected to have preach-
ed the opening sermon, but owing to the
illness of his son could not be present.
Dean Innis occupied the pulpit. A meet-
ing of the executive committee was held in
the Chapter House on Monday morning.
A terrible accident which resulted iu
the death of Mr. Wm. Hooper, occurred
on Tuesday night at the Wellington street
crossing of the Grand Trunk at London.
Mr. Hooper was engaged at his regular
employment, switching, and is supposed
to have tripped in some manner and was
thrown under the wheels of a freight train
which was being shunted. The deceased
was formerly of Exeter, and had been em-
ployed in the London yard about six
mouths.
Mr. Fred W. .Johnston,Johne C. of Goder-
,(Z
icb, has been appointed junior county
judge of the district of Algoma. This ap-
pointment has been rendered necessary by
the increasing requirements of the district,
and it will be conceded by those cognizant,
of Mr. Johnston's ability and legal at-
tainments that a better selection could not
have been made. It is understood that
Judge Johnston will make his home at
Sault Ste Marie, confining his labors to
eastern Algoma, while the senior judge,
who resides at Port Arthur. will devote,.
himself to the western part of the district
The Crops.
We had a drive in the county of Perth,
the other day, and the crops throughout
the route we travelled looked splendid,
notwithstanding, the report from Exeter
which appeared in the London Free
Press to the contrary. We never saw
this season of the year a better show of
fall wheat, although in the ` fore part of
the spring it appeared to be a failure.
Several farmers with whom we conversed
said that the crops, taken in whole, if
nothing happened, would far exeeei
those of last year. The fruit crops in
sohie localities have suffered front the
peceseseesee
late. frosts, but there will be a good
yield, especially apples. A gentleman,
whose business causes Bing to travel a
great deal through this section, informs
us that out towards the lake crops are
looking splendid and thinks they never
looked better, and htn his travels through
t'lne townships of Hay and Tueker inith,
the finds the same appearance in the
crops,
School P.ie-nig.
The pupils of the Prinoipafs room in
Exeter Public Sehool held their annual
pie-nze on the afternoon of Thursday,
June 12th, in the grove, Exeter North,
the unfavorable weather of Saturday,
June 7th, having made it necessary to
postpone it. About 2 o'clock in the
afternoon about forty of the pupils as-
sembled in, the grove where arrange-
ments had been previously made for
games of different kinds, swinging,
boating, etc. A goodly number of
baskets were brought to the ground by
the lila who 10 ria i provided anb r a
au
g

ante for the good time later in the day,
The weather was all that could be de-
sired and everyone entered heartily into
the amusements and seemed thor•oughty
earnest upon having a good time. The
usual picnic etiquette, where about
ninety -live per cent. of the company
gats around waiting for their turn,
while the remainder enjoy themselves
monopolising all the amusements, was
not observed. The boat was kept going
continually on the pond until after eight
o'elock.in the evening, and no one who
felt so disposed went home without a
all on the placid water. About G o'clock
all sat: down on the green turf to fully
satisfy their bodily appetite and quench
n
their thirst by reneated draughts of
lemonade, The amusements were kept
tnp until it began to grow dusk when the
fragments were gathered up, and teacher
and ,pupils made for their homes feeling
fully satisfied and longing for a few

Henry Smith Hanged.
The execution of Henry Smith for the
murder of his wife, Lucy, on the night of
February 18, tcok place in London on Satur•
day morning last in tbe presence of about
a hundred spectators. At Smith's own
request, Be. W. T. Hill, rector of the
Church of St. Jobs the Evangelist, Pat with
him all night and alternately prayed and
sang hymns, in which Smith joined. His
last selection was from Sankey's hymnal,
No. 90, beginning:
Vollmer, wheresoe'er thou art.
At the cross there's room.
Shortly after 6 yesterday morning Rev.
Mr. Neil, at present occupying the pulpit
of the Congregational Church, called neon
the pripouer and remained with him until
the execution. Smith was very weak. and
nearly fainted when the eherifl's officers
went to his cell, and he had to be supported
while his arms were being pinioned. The
procession entered the gaol yard at nine
minutes past eight,.Smith was supported
on either side by turnkeys Ryan and Snyder,
Rev. Mr. H°11 reading psalm mil. The
gallows was a contrivauoe of the same sort
as that on shish Kane was hanged at To-
ronto, and it is stated that the executioner
was the same man that officiated on that
occasion. At the gallows Smith showed
marked signs of weakness, and would have
fallen bnt for the assistance of the officers.
After adjusting the noose, the hangman
drew the black cap over the face, and as lie
did so the prisoner groaned, his last words
being "God have mercy." Rev. Mr. Hill then
read the prisoner's written confession, in.
hieh he uses these words :—"I was the
cause of Lucy ,Jackson's death. I struck
her just once with my fist, and I dont know
whether it was the fall on the stove or the
blow that caused her death." The oonfes
sion concludes with expressions of gratitude
to the officials and clergymen for their kind.
nese, and the statement that be trusted in
the Saviour for forgiveness. `'There .wae'a
alight delay while the hangman went up a
ladder to examine the tackle, When he
came down Rev. Mr. Hill began tbe Lord's
Prayer, and at tbe words "forgive us our
trespasses," the heavy iron weight (upwards
of 300 pounds) dropped and the doomed'
man's body shot up into the air. The vic-
tim's neck was broken, though the goal
surgeon states that the heart beat for ten
minutes and 45 seconds after the fatal jerk.
The drop fell at 8.13. and 27 •minutes later
the body was taken down. At the, critical
moment several of the 'spectators turned
away sick, and one of the number fainted:
The usual inquest was held, and in the
afternoon the body was'burit3d in the goal
yard, beside` those of three ;former,ietims--
