Step by step one goes along way ! The hare ridiculed the tortise for its slowness, but the tortise laughingly replied : "I will beat you in a race !" And while it may be a fable it is none the less true in busi- nese pursuits and with men. The undersigned is just closing the fifteenth year of his business career, and although we may be considered slow, we have been plodding on amidst great odds, but this finds ns still in the race. During those fifteen years many changes have come over the business visage of Exeter. There are only three places of business now in operation showing the same managing head and other two that have made partial changes with new mauagers,that were contempo- raries in. 1876. I feel myself indebted to my many customers for their liberal patronage afforded me during these years. Whether large or small pur- ch•ises, they have my sincere thanks, and I would ask a continuance of the same, It will be mine to study their needs, seeking to place before them goods equal to those of the past, assur- ing the purchasers of proper attention and doing our best to meet the wants of the most fastidious . .1 remain Yours; JP,CLARKE.

Perhaps for the benefit of your readers Mr Editor your scribe from Plugtown may be able to give us the limits and boundaries of this great and mighty Plugtown, as ho endeavors to throw a red herring aoross the trail by as- serting that these young men do not live in Plugtown. Literally speaking, certainly not, for no such place exists ; but we make the assertion, know whereof we speak, and deny contradiction to the following :-That each and every young man who took part in the proceedings at issue does live in the school section whose school has received the slang name of Plugtown. We are extreme- ly sorry that your correspondent should take the abusive language so sorely to heart, but talk not of abuse thou whose phraseology when speaking of young men term them 'animals and things ' Yea I say unto thee hold thy peace. No 2 evidently tries to give himself away and wo commend him to the sympathy of the public at large. Oh, I was there I this is the tone he sings in. Put it in a nut shell and you have it here : I heard the hideous groaner I I was sneaking around the gate! I was there and heard the young man tell the crowd there was not a gentleman amongst ns! (Is this a challenge to fight?) ad infinitum. We would advise the groaner who is also a resident of Plugtorn school section to come out from amongst them as they now repudiate him. A few more words to Plug- townite end I will conclude this delectable subject for the present. Admitting the falsehood made of the young man challeng- ing others to fight and knowing that to every effect there must be a cause. What would be the reason in the ease at hand ? Why would this young man have been mo, tested if he had not been in the company referred to? By intimating his desire, Plug- townite may have these interrogatives ans- wered in plain words and with certain detail added which might pruve interesting to the readers. Plugtownite, I am afraid you are already in a blanket bat more force needs to be used to raise you sufficiently high, before the concussion will be' injurious enough to cure you of the disease from which you are suffering. We would again remind these scribes that feats are stubborn things and cannot easily be overcome by bush beating or otherwise, bat that wo maintain and esu prove the,versi w given i • she Kirkton mll•s i eel• much to the appearance of the hors,. of 29th ult, to be o one..

FOOTBALL—The match between Centralia and Eden which was announced under this heading in last week's paper, Dame off last Friday at seven o'olock. The kickers began to come but the game did not commence until half past eight owing to some of the visiting team not appearing until that time. After getting the clubs planed, time was called. A slight pass by "Bumpy" to Cave commenced the game. There was a jumble made and Centralia got the ball, but it did not pass the half backs, who were ever on the alert. A close dribble by Boyle and a pass to Handford sent the ball down ou Eden goal. Pinoombe, one of our banks took the ball shot it for the side but the ball being wet made a corner kick. The ball was kinked off by Handford ; but not kick- ing it far enough was captured by Walker, be passing it to Smith who sent it up the field followed by our left wing men-Esserey and Chance. This kind of work was kept up for almost half time. When goals were changed at half time the Contralians seem- ed to be much fresher than before. They got a good many corner kicks, but to no, account. At one time Eden goal was in danger, but Kerslake, the goal keeper, was there=as he always is to stop the ball Lancely and Spoke fed the forwards perse- veringly with the ball, but it seemed to no effect for no go,ls wore snored. Sometimes it would pass the half backs bot that old invincible "The south paw twirler" seemed to be just in his element when the ball would come to him, for no sooner did he pot it then it would fly back to centre again. Tho men on either bide put up a good game considering the condition of the ground which was wet with the due that had fallen but a few minutes before. We hope to kick Centralia again in the near future, ou their own grounds. They are a tine lot of boys and we wish them luck wherever they may kick, Tho referee, Mr Dorrance. diet his work very satisfactorily to boa clnhs. Score 0 to 0. The senior team went to-Chisel- huret on Friday afternoon last to play the team there. Our boys met with their first defeat there, but it we owingto two of the s men being somewhat used up. The game was played before a very respectable and impartial crowd, and the visiting team were need like gentlemen by the home boys. Tho retort' match will be played hero soon. Score, 1 to 0.

' -- CONCERT.-The concert given by Prof Scott on Friday evening last, was well attended proving the esteem in whioh the Prof. is held in this part ; and to say that the concert was a success would be but stating it mildly for it was a grand success. The programme was exceedingly interesting ; the se- lections were of the best and rendered in an excellent manner, Prot. Scott, proved himselt to be an excellent singer, and his rendering of Scots Wha Hae was exceedingly well done. Of the ladies, bliss Mollhargey, of Lucant Is deserving of special mention : she is possessed of a rich voice of great com- pass, and the manner in which she rendered Jack O'13azel Deen was a de- cided hit, and in future if she should visit Hensall she shall of herself draw a large and appreciative audience. Messrs. Murdock and Murray sang in their usual good form, Mr Cookman rendored 'tRooked in the cradle of the deep" in a. most excellent manner, Geordie being loudly encored. Prof. Brown gave the audience all the mirth they could expect. The concert closed by Prof. Snott singing a comic Irish song entitled Batley Hooley. Proceeds were large. Thuraday afternoon while shunting cars at Bright station, near Stratford, Hugh Dodds, brakeman, attempted to climb on the rear car by the .ladder, but missed his footing and fell beneath the wheels.
