The first question we do not propose to answer, the second we modestly feel assur- ed is one to wbioh an answer is justly ex- pected of us and that our reply to will be but iu good order. For over twenty years our house has been a depot for holiday supplies. That twenty years has given us much varied and valuable experience, and with thoughts and energies still directed in the same purpose, our house should at least be entitled to a due share of enquiry, This season we will show a very large stock bought with much care and embracing almost everything saleable which can pro- perly be embraced in a Bonk, Stationery and Fancy Goods business.

Yesterday evg, the residence of 14.f `i'hos. ,Shapton, short distance west of Exeter, was the *sane of a happy event, the occasion being the marriage of Mr•a Sidney W. Davis, to Miss Loy Shapton," eldest' daughter. The ceremony was performed by the Rev. Mr, Wilson 111 the preseidee' of a few relatives and friends. The bride was supported by Miss Fanny Davis while Mr. James Shapton performed the duties of grooms- man. The bride was attired in a cream colored dress, while thetbridesmaid wore a dress of similar color, both wearing a beautiful wreath of orange blossoms, After the nuptial knot had been tied the gathering partook of a sat ptuous repast prepared by the bride, and of her cook- ing abilities all spoke most favorably, being unanimous that Mr, Davis had se- cured a wife Possessing a, most essential quality. The latter part of the evg wits. spent in the various amusements incident to such occasions, all leaving at a seasonable hour for their several homes. The happy twain left for their new home at Devon amid endless con- gratulations for their future happiness and prosperity. We now issue our con- gratulations, and trust that on the turbid see of life their voyage may be a pleasant one, Mr. Davis is popularly known in Exeter, while the now Mrs, Davis is a lady of rare qualities, and a great favorite among her sex. p n c b 13 00 a ti he th si to 50 ne 13 sa tw ha M sto Or sio k'r fitting change. • It is rumored that either Rev.

Exeter, in the midst of darkness, is situated in the centre of half-a,dozen towns all of which afford electric light, . Such is not the case because we don't require the improved lighting system, but because no person seems to have the public•spirited- ness to take hold and carry the agitation through. People of towns where the system has been in vogue for a few months, and who were at first opposed to it, are DOW load in theirpraise as to its useful- ness.

The Huron Expositor again faintly en- deavors to answer our questions anent the Agricultural Society controversy. Our cotetn. claimed that the County Society paid 8190 in excess of receipts, and we asked the source of its surplus funds. This is the explanation :—"The only source "of revenue the County Society has, is its "membership fees and its share of the "Government grant. The money received ``from these sources it devotes to holding a "spring show for entire stock and to assist "the Branch Society that may for the year "amalgamate with it, to offer at its show a "larger and more attractive prize list and "in this a'ay increase the usefulness of the "local society, as it has done this year "with Exeter." Its membership fees amount to about 890, which with its share of the government grant, about $40, make a total sum of $130. There are still $60 short of the .$190. The sum' of $130. our cotem. says is devoted to holding spring fairs, and assisting the Branch Societies in offering a larger prize list, Must'we then infer that a big thing is made out of alio spring fair ; and that that enterprise alone is the only source of revenue for the County Society , If so the Societyis= Y very foolish to continue the fall l exhibition at the ex- pense of the spring show. And as a rule spring shows barely pay expenses., Our cotetn. claims that a portion of the spring show's surplus goes toward enlarging the prize list for the fall fair. This assertion is too bare -faced to get any credence. When the arrangements between the two Societies are made, a certain stun is guar- anteed by the branch society sufficient, we would imagine, to pay all expenses,) includ- ing prise list, The iocal society 'really pays the prize list. Previous to this year the sum paid by the branch society to the County Society was $1,000. The County Society no doubt realizing a huge surplus in this amount, anxiously sought the $800, which it this year received. The Exposi• torclaims wea are on the wrong strain. s ram. If Po will it kindly set us right by giving an intelligible ,explanation, and cease its beating around the bush. By such shallow contentions it does not -surely hope to de - hide the intelligent public into its meaning' less' impressions. Whether or not we have humbler! ourselves in this matter, as our cocem..claims, we have the satisfaction of knowing that the directors of the Ste- phen & Usborne Branch will not be found cooperating with the County Society, at least for many years to come ; until in fact, some more favorable ..scheme can be ad voiced by the county institution. They have this year discovered their error and nvinced, by the summing up of tho '.nee of the past several years, that a utter .local auspices, will prove as sful--•more so financially—as one oder joint auspices.

H. D. Steele, incum- bent of St.Paul's, anionnted to $52, which was devoted to the church repair funds The title of the rev, gentleman's lecture was "Woman's Sphere," and his remarks were based on Romans xvi. The gentle- man referred to the' degraded position Women occupied where heathenism was in vogue, and compared it with the place in which Chtistianity set her, and showed how women, had taken a prominent part frond the beginning in every worst designed to advance the cause of true religion, The lecturer portrays iu descriptive language the virtues of woman and maintains a be- lief that there will .be more women in heaven than men. He also gives illus- trations of the devotedness of the gentler sex, and coutends that the great Bible principle is, that while woman has equal rights with man in spiritual matters, yet socially both in church and state, woman is subordinate to man. He likewise upholds the textof St. Paulin which he says `'Let your women keep silence in. the churches, etc." The true glory of woman, said the speaker•, is in the domestic circle, for we have no sympathy with masculine women who sacrifice true wonvtnly modesty- Speaking odestySpeaking of mothers, the rev. gentleman believes that if they are actuated by high Chiistian priciples they can contribute considerable to human happiness both by precept and example, and in quickening the time when the result of woman's sin in Eden shall be obliterated by the hallowing influence of true religion.
