Friday last was Exeter's civic holi- day and the town wore an extremely holiday appearance. Those who did not accompany the excursion to Port Stanley visited Grand Bend and *there spent the day enjoying the balmy breezes of lake Heron. The excursion to fore Stanley was conducted by the Exeter A. F. d A. M. and was very largely attended, upwards of 400 pas- sengers going frontExemer atone. The towns and villages along the London, Boron & Bruce railway supplied large contingents, and on the whole there were eleven ears well idled. Port Stanley was reached in due time, and after spending a pleasant day the ex- cursionists returned home early, the train reaching Exeter about eleven o'clock.

A smart boy to learn the printing, 15 years of age. Apply at this office. The First of the Season. Mr. Wm. White, of Stephen, the other clay marketed in Exeter a load of this year's wheat, which weighed 63 lbs. to the bushel. The average weight of last year's wheat was 58 lbs. The Fruit Prospects, In Huron County the prospects est s for a good yield of fruit are meagre, especially in the lower townships. In the northern part of the county, howeyer, there is a better outlook. Early apples are plenti- ful, while late apples will be a fair yield. Pears and other small fruits in the north- ern precincts will yield fairly good, while in the southern part of the county there will be a shortage. The cause assigned is the heavy June irosts, which we ex- perienced this year. Electric Storms. One of the worst thunder storms ex- perieued this season passed over this locality on Sundaylast, following one of the warmest days of the season. Dur- ing the day the mercury went up to 110° in the shade, the weather being very oppressive. In the evening the clouds gathered 'on all sides and in a few minutes the sky was one sheet of illum- ination, while the thunder rolled with reverberating roar, fairly shaking the earth. The barn of Mr. Robert Coward, rented by his son Daniel, of the 9th concession of Usborne, was burned to the ground, together with 16 acres of fall Wheat, two waggons (one a new one) and other implements. The barn was insured for $1000, and the crops and implements were partially insured. Messrs. Cowards' loss will be consider- able. There was not a very heavy rain. a'' i:l. `Cr! eitcf,er'b i Astor! ter.o The cattle buying season is opening up brisk, The prices are reported good and grazing land have been excellent for fatten- ing purposes. In every way this is prov- ing a profitable year for farriers in this favored section. Tho greatest living Organist—Frederic Archer, The man Sande, who assaulted Mr, Qnatry at Centralia the other tray, was arraigned before one of the Exeter J. P's and sent to Goderich for trial. It is possi- ble that he will get a year, as he is deemed a dangerous individual. Whilst getting off the excursion train, at the Exeter station, on Friday night, as it was about to move, Mrs. Pollard slipped and fell under one of the car wheels ; and had not Mr Knight, who was at hand, pulled her out, the lady would have been run over and killed. Along some of the country roads we notice that noxious weeds are growing healthy and strong; and they will soon defy the roadmaster to exterminate them. It is a shame that such negligence is per- mitted unpunished. The township of Hullett is one of the worst in this respect. There died in Exeter on Monday last, Mr. John Brock, at the age of 41 years. Deceased some weeks ago contracted a fever from which he never recovered. He was a native of Devonshire, England, and came to Exeter a few weeks ago from some of the eastern townships, and followed the occupation of a laborer. A meeting of the creditors of John Mattice was held on Monday, to make are rangements for the disposal of the estate. Liabilities to the amount of $500 were de- clared, while the assets amounted to $100. The real estate is covered by mortgage. It is expected that the estate will not pay one cent on the dollar. Tell your friends Frederic Archer is coining. Farmers in this and adjoining counties pronounce the growth of the'two•rowed arley seed importedfrom England by the Dominion Government a grand success: The beads are well filled with large bright grain, which will yield very heavily. It is a trifle slow in ripening however. The Reform Press will please make a note of this and give the government its just dues. In the township of Hullett this year ST. !MARTS, lsrINN/NG.
