A debate took plaea at Eden on Wed- nesday evg last, the subject being : "Re- solved that Intemperance is a greater evil than war." After considerable discussion in white) some strong arguments for and against were advaneed, decision was ren dered in favor of the affirmative. The same subject was debated upon last eve at Sodom, bat as yet we have not learned the result, So far this bas been the finest winter within the recollection of the oldest in- habitant. With just enough snow to cover the ground: well, sleighing for a goodly part of the season has been good, and during the lapse between spells of sleighing the wheeling was excellent and the swamps were frozen, thus permitting easy access to all parts. This information is given for the benefit of the many readers of the Times at a distance. Pupils are reminded that in future there will be but one entrance examination in the year, which will be held is July. Pupils therefore, who are desirous of en- tering the Collegiate Institute to pursue a more advanced course and those especially to whom time is an important considera- tion, should see to it that that they are prepared for the mid summer examination as failure will prevent their entering for a whole year. The use of twine by farmers in binding sheaves of grain is becoming a source of danger to the lives of cattle. Last week two valuable cows belonging to Mr Wm. Mulock, M.P. of Newmarket, died without known cause. On examination, the stomachs of the dead animals were found to be congested with undigested binding twine, and this discovery probably explains the loss of many other animals. Farmers should not allow the twine taken from sheaves at threshing to go to waist among the straw. To introduce the Rev Joseph Parker,. D. D., to readers of sermonic literature is about as superfluous as to Introduce Sir John A. Macdonald to the politicians of this country. The fame of the great Lon- don preacher is world-wide and his ad- mirers a countless host. To accompany him in thought through one of his sermons, is to breathe a purer atmosphere and to look out upon broader and more enchant- ing landscapes. His sermon on "Content- ment," which appears in this issue of TRE TIMES is exceedingly timely, and fairly bristles with new and striking thought. A good joke was innocently played on. several persons who visited the Trivitt Memorial church on Tuesday. In com- pany with a metriber of the church the strangers were first shown to the tower where the chimes are hung, and while being taken through the body of the church, the chimer left, and thinking the visitors had gone, looked the doors. The visitors were there for some time until a passer-by, bearing their implorations for liberty caused their being let free. Several of them were leaving on the next train and had it not been that the train was late they would have been detained in Exeter over night.
