score of 21 to 14. The first prize 1
amounted to $35 and the second prize

In the preparation of the Provincial
voters' lists, municipal clerks should bear
in mind that all franchises for the Legisla-
tive Assembly are now merged in the one,
i. e.—manhood ;franchise.' : Therefore, the
letters "11I. F." must appear opposite the
name of every person to entitle him to
vote. If the letters ' •M, F." are not
printed as directed the voters will be dis-
franchised. The voters' list for the town-
ship of Stanley have been printed without
the letters "M. F." being prefixed to the,
words owner or t nant, etc., as the case
may be, and M r. Bishop, has sent in an
appeal. The lists will have to be re-
printed.
The Parkhill Gazette refers to Exeter as
a handsome little village. We are pleased
to style Exeter as a village, and a hand-
some v illage at that, but were it not very
much larger than Parkhill, which by a
special Act of Parliament, was incorpor-
ated as a town—no`donbt with a view of
having its obscurity overcome by the
mere app waken of a town.—we would be
inclinecl®to have Exeter marked simply
postvillage or a backwoods hamlet. The
Gazette men, who by the way was in Ex-
ettr on the 12th, need not be jealous be-
cause Exeter is so much nicer, larger, and
more thriving than Parkhill, and seek satis-
faction for his low spirits by styling us as
a little village. We have the agricultural
surroundings, the situation and the people
to make us a prosperous, beautiful and in-
viting village, and our confrere need not
wail. ,
Last week We called the attention of the
Board bf Health to the condition of the
often drain at the southern part of the
village. The hot dry weather has fully
set in,and no doubt, as has been the case
in forer years, if preventatives are not
employed, the water which remains at
differ pointswill become etegnent and

sparing use of clieinfeetants at once, and
prevent a roeurrence of last years sickness
among the people ci the neighborhood of
the drain. Were the council to urge the
Board of Health to a more carefuls utin.
into the h:ealt`hfulness of our town, . even
though the cost be comparatively greater

it be ereditable, would be much improved,.
