The renewing appeared in the GOI. unms of the Seaforth Expositor's issue of last week.. We re -publish the same for the benefit of some of our temper- ance friends: "Affairs in temperance circles in Exeter are assuming quite a rum aspect. Perhaps in no locality in Ontario has there been more temperance agitation than in Exeter within the last few years and your correspondent, until recently, believed that the agitation was genu- ine and honest on the part of those who were the cause of it. Reformers de- clared that they would support none but temperance candidates, Conserva- tives the same. Business men declared they would do business with none but temperance business men; doctors de- nounced the use of intoxicants as per- nicious to the body: ministers consign- ed unfortunate tipplers into the claws of the devil, and lawyers became preachers in the great agitation : jour nalists became strong and manly in their temperance editorials. Truly it did appear for a time as if our little village would be launched from its bibulous mooring's out into the clear and placid and. purifying waters of Lake Huron. But alas for the plans of those who, with myself, believed all this and worked. for its consummation. First, politicians proved the insincerity of their vows, then followed business inen, then doctors, then ministers, then lawyers, and last but not least the ever consistent editor began to "run with the hare and hunt with the hounds.". Now none but the old faithful few climb up the hill with Mary and Ruth. I think when I count myself we number 18 out of our army of agitators of 400 of only a few months ago. Last week we had occasion to sound. the trumpet in order, that our forces might be got together to light a petition that was being circu- lated praying for the granting of a license to a new house that has recently, been opened here. This hotel was built by oue of our followers and ho, kind soul, now departed, but not forgotten, at the time he erected it, gave it to our cause to be a stronghold and a centre for invincibles, and virtuously directed that it should then and thenceforth be known as the "Temperance Hotel," to be a warning to the bibbers and an ever present . evidence of the profitableness. and practicability of a hotel run upon temperance priuciples. There we met and directed our plan of campaign against the fell destroyer, little dream- ing that this our mansion, so picturesque in its structure, so pleasant in the calm and quiet purity that pervaded its righteous chambers, should ever be in- vaded by the enemy. Soon, howevSr, did we realize that a' much worse fate had overtaken us. Our friends preyed our worst foes. Although the hotel was given to us, still by some mean process of law by which property may be transferred from one to another for its cash equivalent it was captured by the enemy. We did not just then feel like putting up the cash equivalent or perhaps we might have retained it, then the petition I spoke of before for secur- ing the license to sell liquor in our lost home, was by our enemy put in circu- lation -did our friends circulate a coun- ter petition that a license be denied? No, we called the roll and. there were not enough of us left to get up a petition. We then set to work to see if our friends could be so treacherous, so basely traitorous, so contemptible and hypo- critical as to sign the petition for the license, and horror of horrors what did we find,only our once faithful and sworn temperance friends the leading charac- ters, at the head of this petition, pray- ing that a license be granted to the proprietors of the old Temperance House, to sell liquor.. One of our plat- forms in our campaign was to lessen the number of Menses and it appeared strange to us that any person who had ever pledged himself to our platform should act so inconsistently.. We fail entirely to understand why men calling themselves temperance men should sign this petition, so venture to enquire from one we knew would not lie how- ever inconsistent a temperamce man he might be. ' The following are the questions put to this man and his answers to them. Q, • Did you act rightly in so doing? •A. Yes, Q. How do you justify yourself? A. I believed when doing so that if this house were licensed, the hotel at the station would be deprived of one. Q , Don't you know that as a matter of fact the granting of this license will not necessarily nor is it likely to deprive the statiom hotel of one, and at any rate why should you deprive one man hoW- Orel. poor to enrich another? A. Well all that may be but I did not look at it in that way. Q. Anyway suppose you do deprive the station hotel of a license do you think your conduct will tend to the good of the temperance cause? A. I signed the petition and am not bound to ll why I did so. Q. Don't you think a little personal and selfish end had Semethieg to de with it? A. 1 ant not going to say, Q. flow did you and only a fele other teitiperanee men in one locality Sign the petition? A.. You had better aslc the others. Q. You men never expect to join with us in advocating temperance again? A. Appearances may. be against us but we claim to be temperance men still. This endecrthe inquiry and we ton - chided to find new friends and a new place of meeting. Times and customs change but there is no accounting for the paradoxical quibbling of some of our old time tem• peranee agitators. Probably some of them will explain.

SAD C&8/3 OP DROWNING.—The town of Mitchell was greatly excited on Thursday lasebetween 5 and 6 o'clock, over a report that three little boys had fallen through the ice on the mill pond.

Two were sons of Mr. Wm. Babb, and one a son of Mr. John Skinner. The latter was still con- scious, and after a short time was able to walk away with assistance. The other two,to all appearances,were dead, but Drs.

Scalded to Death. London, Ont., March 21.—Word has been received in this city from Wards - vine of a shocking occurrence whereby the wife of Hiram .Crandell, a farmer, , was the innocent cause of the death of their only child, a bright little girl of 4 years. Some other children were play- ing hide -and seek around the premises and placed little Ella Crandell in an empty churn, putting the cover on in order to secrete her. The mothor came to scald out the churn, ancleeKnred a kettle full of hot water througlethe hole in the lid. A piercing shriek from the little one told Mrs. Crandell what had been done, and she ran raving from the house. The child's face and body were terribly scalded, and it lived but a minute after being lifted out. The mother is distracted, at times calling for the child, and believing her experi- ence to have been an ugly dream. The case is 'a sad one, and the bereaved parents have much sympathy extended to them. Died in the Pulpit. Camila, Ill., March 26.—The Rev. R. L. Shinn a Congregational minister at Morris city, Ill.,fell dead Monday night. The Congregational Churches of south- ern Illinois have been holding business meetings at Rev. Mr. Shinn's church for the past week. At the close of a sermon by one of the visiting brethren on the uncertainty of life. Mr. Shinn made a few remarks in the pulpit in which he said that life was but a span, and that we might at any moment be on the brink of the grave. He leaned his head on the pulpit as if in prayer, and fell down dead. He frequently expressed to his family a desire that when his time came he might leave the world from the pulpit.

Took a Button from His N l BALTIMORI3, learocsheii6.—Capt. Rich- ard Respess, of Varginia, has suffered, for 25 years with some affection of the nose, which gave him a great deal of trouble. He was treated for necrosis by all the physicians he consulted. When captain Respess called upon Dr. Heartly Monday that physician con- cluded to make a further examination. Finding that something had lodged in the cavity immediately beneath the left eye, he inserted a probe into the nestril, discovering what proved to be a white button three -eights of an inch. in diameter, which has probably been there since childhood, Murdered his Mother. Somerville, Tenn., March 22.—Mrs, Sallie Hobson (colored) was a servant in the family of the Episcopal minister, and lived with her four children in a small house in the rear of the parson- age. This morning her husband, whe had been in the country at work, cal- led at the house with another negro, and after a short stay started out for a walk. Returning half an hour later,he found on one side of the door the de- capitated remains of his wife, and sev- eral feet away the head. A stick of wood, on which her head hati been placed when the cutting was done, showed three distinct cuts of an axe. The wontan's eleven -pear old son was playing with other children, his cloth- ing statured with blood. He at first claimed the blood came from a ,chicken which he had killed, but at the inquest admitted he had commited the crime. He said hismother laid lievnheadeon. the block and told him if he did not cut her head off she would kill him, The boy's story is not believed, and he was placed in jail. Thrilling Railway Ride HAMILTON, March 25.—Engineer Ed. Williams, Fireman Cardwell, Conductor Gibson and the crew of a special freight from Port Dover had a thrilling exper- ience late on Saturday night. There were 23 cars on the train, and all went well until Rymal station was reach- ed at 11.30. Here the coupling of one of the cars broke, and thirteen cars and the locomotive began a headlong mice down the mountain into the city. 'The cars swayed from side to side, 'and every moment it appeared as though. the train would leave the track. En- gineer Williams climed out upon the cars and set several of the brakes, but this had no effect upon the train, which dashed into Ferguson avenue :and. across King street, almost wrecking a wagon -which had just passed over the track. Between Kelly and Cannon streets, the train struck the yard en- gine, which Engineer Dick was back- ing out of the way. Dick was knock- ed out of the cab. The yard engine was not damaged, but the cow -catcher of the locomotive came to grief. At Cannon street the switchman tilene.d, the train into the main line and the engineer got it under control near the Wellington street crossing. A freight from the north had puled in not long before the arrival of the runaway. Lot -worn Ont., March 25.—Freeman Hodgins, residing at the Westminster end of the Clark's bridge, died at 5 o'clock this morning, it is clamed from injuries received on Saturday night in a row which occurred at his house. A partfof men went there and had sev- en drinks; for which, it is said, they paid 25 cents. They insisted on get- ting more, which Hodgins refused to let them have, and a row occurred. Ho received a blow on the right side which is supposed to have brought on the congestion of the lungs from which his death took place. An inquest will be held, Constable Graham having taken the case iu charge, Freeman Hodgins formerly kept the Hodgies house on Ridout street, and was well known throughout the city. ibis widow; thinks it was a man named John Hutchinson who struck her husband, but she had her back to them at the time and could not say for sure.

About the 'Weather. • Some weather crank,with a 'Ammer& enally long memory, writes to an A4 merica,n paper to observe that this'win- ter has been a repetition of the win- ter of 1815-16, and to prophesy that the coming summer will be after the pat- tern of that which followed the afore- said whiter. In April, 1816, it became very cold,and that sort of weatherewith varying quantites of snow and ice,eore tinned until September, when thexe was a brief respite. If the doleful pre- dictions of this new Wiggins are trust- worthy, Canadians may as well lay in an extra stock of coal and blankets and prepare to spend the summer holidaym in frantic efforts to keep wane.
