Verity. of Exeter, Mr. A. Cutlinore, of 'Cleburne, and :dr. Hogarth. of Stepheu. arrived ill Exeter, after being in 1Mauitoba fur about a mouth. They give „ good account of the coun- try. Mr. Cudtnure has taken up laud aud carr. Hogarth has disposed of the land which 11e own eel. Mr. Verity, who watt on a prospecting tour with a view of arranging for the sale of agricul- tural implements, has found a market for a large number of plows, if lnade no as to work satisfactorily in the soil of that Province, a task which we fuel certain can be performed in' Mr. Verity's establishment. CANADIAN MARKET FOB CANADIAN FLOVR.- Sinoe the National Policy became law, many Cauatlian industries have been benefitted by its working. Among these is the milling busi- ness of Ontario, which I1as had its :market extended to Prince Edward Island, Previous to the introduction of the N. P. that distant Province obtained its supplies front the United States, but now, by the wisdom of the txorern-. , meet, all this is changed, and our Darn millers and our owe farmers are given the preference over foreigners. A few days ago Mr. Zanies Pickard was asked for prices of his flour. The quotations being satisfactory, his offer was accepted. We understand he is now proper- ing to ship in largo gnautities. The figures he ' 1 quoted enabled him to increase the price of wheat several cents per bushel, thus airing the farmers the direct benefit of the inter-Provin- 1 oial trade. There's nothing like the N. P. RUNAWAY A0OfDENT.-01.1 Friday last a span of horses belonging to Mr. Edmund Small, of Usborne, ran away in Exeter. Mr. Small (who is au aged person) was driving the team down Bain Street, and when near the southern boundary of the corporationthey started torun away and before they bad gone far they upset the vehicle to which they were attached, injur- ing Mr. Small very seretely. Afterthe con- veyance was npset the horses got loose from it and ran a. good piece before they were caught. A buggy, which luckily happened to bo passing at the time the upset occurred, brought l'fr . ,`!mall to Exeter, where his injuries were at- tended to, and after the runaway }horses were brought to Exeter, he was driven to his home fu a buggy. S. S. Excoxston.--On Tuesday morning last an excursion train, consisting of ten coaches, left this place for Port Stanley. Over four hundred persons boarded the train at Exeter, rhe maj-ray of them being young people. At Centralia station the Exeterit.8 were join- ed by about our hundred more excursionists. A few passengers were taken. on at London. The Port was readied shortly after 11 o'clock, and after proceeding to the pleasure grounds, refreshments were partaken of, and then. the pleasure -seekers enjoyed themselves in differ- ent ways. There were croquet sets, and swings on the grounds for those inclined to enjoy themselves in that way. A boat which non- vevett passengers otit on Lake Erie was also an Bourne of much enjoyment. Altogether a pleasant time was 1llent on the shores of Lake Erie. At five o'clock the train left Port Stan - ley, arriving in Beeter about • 1.80. The day's pleasure was not marred by any aceideat or uther•necnrrsnce except that two or three persons lest their hats while leeking' out of the windotsr. card with a description of a thief and a horse and buggy, (211,1 asks us to pubiiele it, lie et - leis $20 reward.
