The Liendard of to-day published a let er

sion of the Imperial Parliament, They
have already commenced to agitate tor
further reforms. They want vote by bal-

and unsectarian system of education, and
a munober ef other things besides, — Ire-
land and tland are both agitating for

litions upon which tenants hold thei

represented in Parliament. 'Yhen there
is the capital and labor question, If
Parliament refixe 4o meddle with this
guestion the ‘Lvades Unionists will not.
The pv ospect in this direction isnot avery

but keep within the bounds of law, they
might be allowed to fight out the battle
between themselyes without interference
on the part of the state, but the lay

the Queen came to know the true state
of affairs in Abyssinia, and with the good
nature and a regard for the safety of even
the humblest of her subjects for which
she has ever been remarkable, direeted
her servants to give a polite answer to
her sable suitor, hey were to inform
him that her Majesty had resolved never
again to wed, but that she was highly
flattered by the compliment pail her by
his Abyssinian Majesty. King Theodore
not used to such answers from the ladiés
whom he condescended to woo, flew into
a violent passion. Since he could not
wreak his vengeance on the ‘
fender against hic 7°

zuity, he determined
to puiigu every subjact of the Queen on
whom he could manage to lay his hauds,
and the consequence was the imprison-
ment of the Consul and a number of
ladies and gentlemen, cleven in number,
if we remember rightly. What the ulti-
mite results of this matrimonial ula-
tion of King Theodore’s will be ary,
hard to tell. Jfow many of the gallant

deliver their countrymen from the power
of the barbarous tyrant it is impossible
to calculate,

The Fenians are again giving trouble
in Mngland. Wha would expect to hear
of a Fenian rising in the heart of Eng-
land, to be told that Ienian prisoners
would be rescued in the broad light of
day in one of the largest cities in Ing-
land? That sucha thing could be done in
Ireland where all the lower orders of the
population sympathise with the Fenian
fanatics is what most people would con-
sider exceedingly probable, but that the
Mnglish police, in an English city would
be successfully resisted and their prison-
ors wrested from them, one would sup-
pose beyond the bounds of probability.
But this ocurrence, unlikely as it seems,
has actually taken place in Manchester.
Two Irish At 1 Pgnians, De:
and Kelly by name, were apprehended
by the Manchester constables on sus-
picion of burglary. They, however,
goon found out that they captured not
housebreakers, bué Kenia They were
examined by a magist remanded
On their way » guarded
ised policemen, they were rescued
by anamber of their fellow conspirators.
The sergeant of police was shot dead on
the spot, The rest, it seenis, took to
their heels and left the Fenians masters
of the fickl, Both prisoners made good
thuir escape. Some of the rescucrs have
been captured. What the Henians ex-
pect to gain. by thus carrying the war
into Africa is past our comprehension.
Whatever hopes cf success they may
have by making Ircland the field? of their
operations, they must soc that they have
not the ghost ofa chance of furthering
their caso by getting up a nitber of
small riots in Mogland, But common
sense and }enianism are not to be men-
tioned in the same sentence.

EXHIBITION,

Having promised so to de, I will try
and give you a brief description of the
) Mxhibition,for #1 were to go into details

it would take many more than this sheet

}of paper to contain them. Without fur-
ther preface then, the drill shed, as it is
termed, was fitted up with tables, benches
appliances, and at enter-
Jing presented a rather imposing appear-
jance, J ¢ were thee aisles or passages,
on cither side of which were arranged
the articles exhibited. We will tuke the
one to the left of the door of entrance.

iving good: proof that if the
of this articts was more ex-
; not only would the
home ma equately supplied, but
a veluable article added to the list of ex-
vorts. Close to these wasa pile of biicks,
bait mills, cooper’s work, in the shape of
barrels, half barrels, nests of measures,
Salted mackeral were there, andot the
finest quality.—What an inexhaustible
source of wealth was typified by these
wifts of God's provideuce, made available
by man’s industry. Some specimens of
ironmongery, in the shape of axes, forks,

were creditable to the makers. A
cast iron stove, by whom made I did not
learn, it will doubtless be in the list of
miscellaneous articles, 2 to this eae
the Cereals, but for these refer to the list
of prizes,

I was highly pleased witha washing
e, and to me, a noyel kind of
the joint production of Mr.
iibald White, the engincer and smith,
and Mr Mark Butcher,the cabinet-imaker; |
these were as well manufactured as any-
thing of the sort I have seen imported.
The Furniture exhibited by Mr, Butcher,
and Mr, George Douglass, were in the
highest degree ¢reditable, both to the
manufacturers and to the state of mechan-
ical art in the Island. There were two
bedsteads, of walnut, made one by cach,
either of which would grace the best bed
chamber in the country. Some chairs of
birch, by Mr. Butcher, stained to look
like mahogany, were worthy of atteution,
as giving w cheap yet sightly article tor
the best parlor of the farmer or mechanic.
A sofa aad set of chairs to match, of
black walnut and blue velvet, by Mr.
Douglass, attracted the attention and ad-
miration of every passer by, and received
from them all the praise they merited.
A chest of drawers with mirrors, also well
deserved approbation, I have culled out
only a few of the most prominent articles
among many equally deserving of men-
tion. Imust not, however, pass by a
curious piece of fret work by Mr, But-
cher—his name and address cutout of a
single piece’of wood. ‘This is a specie
of ornamental wood work not e 1
new, but executed after a new fashion—
‘it was formerly termod carved work, and
executed with cutting instruments oi dif-
entkinds. Itis now performed alto-
| gether by means of the saw, and affords

ingenuity of the present generation, and
of the increased facilities given to the ex-
ertions of art, by the substitute of steam for
manual power. I find on looking over
my notes that I haye omitted two chairs
by Mr. Butcher, the one called pric dieu,
of walnut with a back of tapestry exqut-
sitely worked in flowers after nature ; the
other a picture of the Queen, with crown,
sceptre, and both as articles of furniture
and specimens of needle work, highly
praised, more especially by the fairer por-
tion of the spectators,

Turning lo the opposite side of the pas-
sage way, some specimens of fancy work
ip the Sane or card cases, paper cutters,
boxes in two picees of statuary in mar-
ble, a head and a fancy ornament, Yin-
ware, &c. Iwas much pleased with some
specimens of stereotype plates, by Mr. G.
Bremner, the first attempt of the kind
on P.E. Island I suspect, and the more
to the credit of Mr. Bremner. He show-
ed also some specimens of book binding,
well executcd and cereditably tooled.
Hats and Caps by Mr. Hobbs. Men’s
apparel by Mr. John Bell. Patchwork
Counterpanes of every variety and pattern
adding considerably to the liveliness of
the show. We cone now to the speci-
mens of woolen goods, and here | must
refer you to the list of prizes, with the re-
mark, however, that the show which met
the eye was, as respects the ingenuity
and industry of our country women,chcer-
ing in the extreme, ‘The day being wet
and cold, the sight of so much and so
many different kinds of appliances caleu-
lated to keep off and dispel both, gave
evidence of comfort pleasant to the feel-
ing. It would take a page mercly to cat-
alogue them.

‘Turning to the right of the enfrance,
our cars were saluted by the various and
somewhat discordant noises of the Poul-
try, exhibited in coops. The arrange-
ment for the show of them was not what
it might have been. ‘They did not shew
to advantage. The appositceness of the
old maxim ‘tneyer sell your hen ona
rainy day’? was he semplified, ‘Phe
coops were too much crowded, so thata
fair view ef them could not be had by the
mero passer by, and the crowd was so
dense that one was fain to suffer himself
to be carried with the stream,

A goodly row of carringes and sleighs
oceupy the right side of the building, and
reach nearly the whole leagth of it. Thave
seen nothing of the same deseription tin-
ported that could compete with them, I
consider this agreat iiumph, ‘There will
be no necessity for importing this kind of
article any longer, Next to the wall, on
re same side, and oecupying the whole of

conspicuous mangelwurzel, carrots, beets

cles in which we can afford to gompete
with the whole world, for there is no part
of it where the soil ‘and elimate are more
tavorable to the production of these species
of vegetables than P, EB. Island, There

of this gathering to see the Indians taking
aplace. IT observed a couple of orun-

buiter fiikins that could not be excelled in
neatness of finish,
