iately concerned to judge, -and will not

ation, of our humble efforts, as manifest
ed by his desire, to preserve our com•
munications as mementos. We would
like to return the complimentbut do
not think hie worthy of keeping. He
says he intendstostart aroaster. Well,
.we wish him luck in his new enterprise
but he must beware of the fate that
overtook the menwho attempted to roast
the three Hebrew chlidren. We have
evaporators, but "roasters" are a new
doper tare,, and we wish him success
in hieeti -seeenture. As to my letters
being fuel` to hien, if he finds in, them.
any comfort, and saving in expenditure
for coal this winter, he is welcome to
all he gets out of them, but must bear in
mind that as we stopped last week, we
fear nothing item the cur that barks
at the heels of a traveller after he has
passed by. •

EXETER FAIR.
The annual Fall Show under the
auspices of. the Stephen & Usborne
Agricultural Society, was held here on
Monday and Tuesday last. The firet
day was devoted principally to making
entries . and arranging the various
exhibits. The second day, nom*ith-
standirg the heavy rain in the morn-
ing followed by a cold, bleaky atmo-
sphere which threatened to destroy the
day's prospects, was a success, although
not up to the standard of other years
in point of attendance, but everything
passed off with commendable prompt-
ness and regularity.
The show of horses, cattle, sheep and
pigs was first-class. The grain, roots
and vegetables were good in quality
but lacked in quantity. The exhibit of
fruit was exceptionally, good as was
also the other indoor exhibits.
There were two racing events the
one being a Farmer's Trot, and the
other a 2:30' trot. Following is a sum-
mary:
