These are considered early. ...Badly in Need of Charity. Wallace Graham, publisher of an excuse 'for a newspaper in Windsor, judging from the manner in which he begs, must be sadly in need of charity, and we wonder why the authorities of that town do not place his name upon the charity list or consign him to the ahrionry. He is so 'hard up' in fact that he writes the clerk of the township of Hay, a distance of 140 miles soliciting the • township printing. What ean prompt this action? Is it on account of there being no Dominion voters' lists to prmt; or is it owing to the watch.business playing out? We commend him as a worthy subject for the poor house. The Duck Affair. It will be remembered that some weeks ago, Messrs. Becker and Dick of Blake were charged with stealing ducks from Mrs. Sherrict of that place. It appears that a Mr. Windsor wss also supposed to be im- • plicated, but who avoided arrest by ab- • senting himself. Chief Constable Gill held a warrant awl kept a sharp look out for his mats On Saturday last he heard of his going north on the morning train and at once went to Henson, arrested him at Hodgins' hotel, and tried him before Mag- istrates 13echanan and Smillie, who corn- 'rsaStteil hitu for trial. He was released, bail being given' to appear with Messrs. Becker ancl Dick atthe spring assizes at Goderich. Au Exeter,Boy's Success, We clip the following from the Gypsum (Kansas) Valley Echo, and it is with pleas- ure we give the item space in our colums. Mr. Willis to whom the item refers is a native of Exeter, and prior to his leaving here, nearly a year ago, was in the employ of Messrs. Bissett Bros. He was much esteemed here, ond we join all in wishing him every succes::- 'Chris Willis, who has been in the employ of A. P. Duoer as a tinner, has purchascld the tools of Mr. Smith and will ;continue the tin shop at the -old:place of business. Mr. Willis is an enterprising young Canadian Lately coming to our town, but has gained the confidence and friendship of our citizens awl we are gladto class him among our business men.' A Comparison.

Creech, who gets .1325, acts as collector, constable, bell ring- er, &c., ste., itc„ stc. This municipality will compare favorably with any of the sibove with regard to low salaries. Becovering a Balance due. An American horse buyer named Crawford who was in town last week buying young entire horses was put to a little inconven- ience at the instance of Messrs. Colquhoun and Dow of this place. About a year ago these gentlemen sent a horse across the borders in care of a Mr. Willis. Mr. Willis travelled the horse for some time'and sluring the season !sold it to this Mr. Craw- ford for a certain sum. He paid the amount save about one Imudred dollars, and it is I said declined to pay this balance, things- i not transpiring as he had expected. Noth- ing further was done in the mattes until the r other day, when upon hearing that Mr. Crawford had purchased a horse here and had it stabled at one of the hotels,, ' Messrs. xi Colquhoun de Dow at once caused an attach- $ inent warrant to be issued. Chief Constable Gill proceeded to take the horSe in . chaige n .1vheri he found that the door was locked; he g requested that it be unlocked, but it was aot granted. Whereupon he took an axe, t ,I.oreed an entrande and took possession of s the ordinal, After considerable talk the b affair was settled by arbitration, the cr- a • bitreters awarding $75 to Messrs. Cohen- p hOlin Dow, with each man his own. (mats to pay. chAnge of advdtiseroont. The spring:like Weatberof Sunday caught a cold Monday nightt and the thermometer met down a few degrees, Mr, Crawford, of the U. S., shipped SQV• oral fine yoang entire horses from the sta.: tion on Monday last. There are a great many cases of measles in town, but are of a mild tyPe, no deaths having, resulted. Mr. }I. Levett, of this place, purchased an $800 piano the other day, fee the Mieees Le vett. Mr. Thee. Tyndall intends leaving town and will offer his household effects by atm - tion on Satarda,y next. See bills, Messrs. Geo, Eacrett and Jos Davis here- by challenge any two in town to race a 3 legged race on the Roller Rink, on the evg. of the Ciunival, Tuesday evening next. The death is announced of Mrs Thomas Cornish, of this place, Which took place on Monday, 20th inst., at the age of 61 years and 4 mouths. She had been ill for some time. Mr. P. Curtin sold to an American horse - buyer the other day a young entire colt for a good sum. Mr. Curtin keeps nothing but good horses and can always realize good prices. It is rumored that Mr. Hutchins, of Park- hill, is negotiating for the purchase of Bis- set Bits. grain store house here. tbe event of his purchasing it he will put a man on the market here. The assessors are now on their rounds. Let every person see that is properly assessed. Facilitate the work of the assess. or by giving him necessary details With promptness. Word has been received of the death at Kent Bridge, on the llth ,Feb., of Rev. A. M. Facey, at the advanced age of 96 years. Deceased was well known in this locality, having at one time been pastor of the Elim- ville and Slepheu Baptist churches. Mr. H. Willert, of Dashwood, was fined $50 and costa, the other day for a yiolation of the Canada Temperance Act. This is either the third or fourth time that M r. W. has been fined, while there are others in Hay who have not as yet been arraigned. A sttanger in town the other day while in conversation with a citizen seriously remark ecl: "There must be innumerable boarding places in Exeter, judging from the number of houses upon which areplaced meet/ cards.' The stranger had evidently mista:ken the ?nedsles placards for those of meals. Messrs. John and Thos. Ryan of Stephen township and John Blatchford of Usborne township, (farmers) have assigned. It is said that there are more to follow. When our farmer friends begin to go down it looks as though depression were worse than for some time supposed.

The musical and literary entertainment and oyster social given by the young ladies ef the James-st Methodist church last evg., was a saccess. The programme rendered by local talent was good, while the oysters ployed a proininent part. The affair was managed in a manner worthy of mention and the ladies deserve credit. The first of a series of carnivals under the auspices of the Exeter Brass Band will take place in the roller rink on Tuesday evening. Good prizes will be awarded, and a pleasant time is assured to all. As the members of the band have in view the purchasing of new clothing,it behooves all who canto be:present and lend a helping hand. Mi. Thomas Camm, son of the late John Camm of Usborne. who has been working in the lumber woods in Michigan, for some time was brought home last week by his friends, seriously injured, a tree having fallen upon him. He is now under medical treatment and hopes are entertained of his recovery. The young man is highly respected by all throughout Usborne Township and much sympathy is expressed. .A bill amending the game laws will be presented to the Legislature at this session. It is not proposed to make any very exten- sive alterations of the game law, but the object is simply to limit the petiod for the shooting of deer to one month from the lst of November to the 1st December, and to limit to two weeks the period within which deer may be hunted with dogs. Mr Thos. Dunsford and family, who have for many years resided on the 3rd con. of Hay, left for their new home in Michigan a few days ago. Just prior to their leaving, a number of the friendly neighbors assembled at the house, and presented them with a handsome album and address, merely as a recognition of the esteem in which they W were held. e join their numerous friends in wishing Mr. Dunsford and family un- bounded success in their new home - A lady who resides in North Exeter, and who, for some years has had a desire to be- come an equestrian made up her mind the other day that she would achieve her pure' pose. She went to the "barn saddled , -ovine, aeld mounting it, let the beast loose n the yaid. It circled the lot about a dozen times at lightning speed, the lady etaining her seat with the grace and pre. eision of one more experienced. Having been so successful in her fil7St attempt she ow continues the practice daily with atisfactory results. Mr. P.

Imperial bank fires have a picture of a man ploughing, while the tens have the Queen on the throne with the British lion beside her. The two 5's in the corner are cut oat and 10's pasted in so neatly that one has to look close to detect it even when it is pointed out to him. The small 'fives' around the edges are scraped off, and the large V's are also erased.

There are questions of impor- tance before the American public on which Congress must soon act or appeal to the s vereign peoide to adopt amendments to the constitution which will meet the wants, or enable the National Legislature to do so. One of these is the immigration question, and there is a timely areicle on the subject in FRANK LESLIE S POPULAR MONTHLY for March. An illustrated sketch of the late Lady Brassey mid. her life • on the yacht "Sunbeam" will be appreciated by all who enjoyed her charming books. "Three Typi- cal Americans"—David Crockett, Ben Bar - din and Thomas Corwin—give Mr. McCann a theme which he treats admirably. "A Finished City," what the people of Annapo- lis call the Maryland Capital, and its quaint old homes and ways and by -ways are clever- ly depicted. There is, too, a bright sketch of Hindoo women, by a lady who lived among them, and writes of what she knows by personal experience. We find a bit of an adventure in the sketch, "In the tracks of the American Lion." "Dolls and doll makers" is a curious:treatise that will inter- est the young and amuse the elders. The article on a Lump of Sugar treats the sub- ject in a popularly scientific manner that cannot fail to interest. The stories, adven tures and minor sketches attract read- ers, old and young. In every point of view this is the most enjoyable number of the most successful of our American magazines. TORONTO, Feb. 20.,—The Central Bank bills that have lately been redeemed by the Bank of Commerce are now being counted. At 3. o'clock Saturday the count- ing was eoinmenced, and at o'clock $150,000 in notes had been canceled. Those engaged in the count are Liquidator Howland, the Master-in4)rdinary, Mr. Thomas Hedging, Q. C., together with several clerks. There is Still over $400,- 000 to count and destroy. In the course of Saturday's work the counters ra,n across Cox's $9,000 in lifty-dollax bills, and they aye been destroyed, 4 is the intention 1 the liquidators to pay 25 per cent to the epositors at once. The illegal issue of otos amounted to $70,000. According o Mr. Howland, the winding up will take bout one year, although the bank will ave to continue tintil all liabilities are no. There are between 8,000 and 9,000 euositorg, and when they receive their 25*per cent. on deposits (which amounts to about $400,000) it will probably have a tendenty to lower the money market Last Week it abli Of Mr. EL Steinbach, of Zari011, met with what might have been a Very Orions aeciderit. re,' eivell a severekick on. the face frOtri One of 1h6 berme in the yard.
