PROVINCIAL LEGISLATURE, i HOUSE OF ASSEMBLY. SatTuRvAy, March 30. | 'Tke Speaker in the chair. | tion. Mr. Ferguson presented a petition from Ernest Mutch and others, praying for an Actto prevent the shooting of wild geese and other wild fowl] in the rivers and streams of this Island from steam launches. | Objection was made to the reception of ,the petition by Mr. Sutherland.

On motion it was ordered that the peti- ‘tio! do lie on the table.

Mr. J. R. McLean asked if it was the

‘remaining part of the Tarentum read.

tion, Mr. Beutley replied that he was not in a position to say what was the inten- tiunof the Government with respect to this matter. If possible, and advisable,the road would be opened.

Mr. Farquharson asked the Commission- er of Public Works what amount ‘was paid by the Government to John 8 MeCarvill in connection with Prentey’s. Bridge, Lot 26, during the years 1887 and 1888, and for phe services were the amounts so paid.

Hon. Mr. Bentley said that ifa written statement was wished for it would be brought down.

Mr. Sutherland asked the Commissioner )0f Public Works for copies of the accounts showing all the items and prices which go to meke up the amount of $15,707.85 as charged in the public accounts for the year i888, under the head of ‘‘ Hospital for the Insane Maintenance,” together with the names of the several individuals who furnished such supplies, or did the work or labbr thereon paid for.

‘'Hon. Mr. Bentley said therewas not the slightest objection to give all information asked for if it were possible to do so. But it should be remembered that there are fully thirty accounts monthly, for the items included in the question of the hon. gentle- man. There are over 300 accounts fur- wished the Department of Public works for the maintenance of the Hospital for the In- sane, andas there is only one official in the Public Works Department who can furpish copies of these accounts, whe is alrdady busily engaged in preparing state- ments in answer to questions asked by hon. méibers of this House and of the Legisla- tive Council, it will be almost impossible to hawe copies of these accounts laid on the table of the House at an early day. The hon, gentleman can see the accounts in the Public Works Department at anytime, and et aay information in regard to them that

Me. Sutherland enqtired if tie originals could not be laid on the table of the House. Mr. Bentley replied that he did not know that such a practice had been follow- ed; besides it would be dangerous to have all these accounts brought down and _scat- tered around the House, as some of them night be lost. He understood that on a former occasion some important documents that had been brought down had been mis- laid.

Mr. McLellan asked for copies of carres- pondence between the Department of Pub- lic Works and Supervisor John McCarthy, District No. 1, Prince County, having re- ference to the expenditure of road moneys in that district; also a copy of the instruc- tions given said supervisor during the year 1878, as to the expenditure of said moneys.

Mr. Bentley said that any correspondence on the subject would be brought down.

Philharmonic Society.

Ir is pleasing to hear that the Philhar-

practical work. Judging from the excel-

rendered, we may be safe in saying that the time has come when a_ well-managed

necessary institution, and may be made a a success, both musically and finan- cially.

For the last three weeks the officers and committee and the sub-committees of the new society have been working hard and have held many meetings. After the finan- cil work of obtaining honorary five dollar members was satisfactorily arranged the working membership of active vocal sand instrumental musicians was entered upon. This was done by each member of the committee sending to the Secretary a list of all the musicians of his acquaintunce in the city whom he considered likely to be- come members of a musical society.

The names thus received amounted to about two hundred and forty. A sub-com- mittee was then appointed who selected from and reduced this number of names to one hundred and eighty good voices, each having « fair amount of musical training. The one hundred and eighty names Were then divided among the tea officers and committee, and each member was instruct- ed to personally interview the individuals whose names were on his list, and invite them to become members of the Society, When the committee again met for report. it was found that one kundred and seven- teen vocalists had decided to join the So- ciety, including all the best soloist voices in the city. Besides the vocalists, a list is being made out for orchestra members. It is expected that an orchestra of thirty or forty can bearranged, including violins, flutes, cornets, tenor horns, violincellos, bass violins, and, if possible, three or four harps. A sub-committee examined all the apart- ments in the city available for the purposes of the Society gatherings, and reported to full committee, and the decision was made ta rent the old Athenwum. The interior of this hall, though latterly very dirty and dingy and ruined in appearance by a hideous temporary gailery, is the most cor- rectly proportioned one in the city, aud by tastefully tinting the ceiling and cornices, painting the woodwork, and putting a tasteful arrangement of dado and orna mental paper on the walls it can be made the most beautiful and attractive hall in this city, The cummittee are strongly ot opinion that having a pleasant apartment for practices

Mr. Shaw asked the Commissioner of Public Works what action the Government intend taking to have a road opened lead- ing from Stanhope to Baldwin’s Road; and, also, what action the Government intend taking to continue the road from Perth Station to the Forty-Eight Road, petitions for both roads having been forrvarded to the Public Works Department.

Hon. Mr. Bentley said he would endea- vor to see the roads referred to during the coming summer, and if possible, and the roads were necessary, he would have them opened.

Hon. Mr. Sullivan moved that the third order of the day, for the third reading of the bili intituled ‘*An Act to amend the City of Charlottetown Incorporation Act,” be discharged, for the purpose of having the bill recommitted to a committee of the whole House for further consideration. After some discussion the motion was adopted.

The House of Commons, on the 27th, says the Hmpire’s correspondent, listened to two really great speeches, one on each side of the question. The speakers were Mr. Dalton McUarthy and Sir John Thompson. The great reputation of both these gentlemen, one the foremost lawyer in Ontario, the otherthe legal adviser of the present government, equally well- matched as they are in eloquence and arts of oratorv, drew to the scene a crowd that exceeded by many hundreds the capacity of the galleries. Many ladies of high rank graced the chamber by their presence. The Senate sat all afternoon with a bare quorum in_ attendance, the Senators, most of them, being on the House side listening to the debate. One of the events of the evening was when, at the close of Sir John Thompson’s speech, Hon, Edward Blake crossed the floor of the House, and taking the Minister of Justice by the hand, said, ‘* Allow me to congratu-

We believe fruit-growers feel about manufacturing a home beverage somewhat like the woman whom tie learned Dr. Aber- nethy once remonstrated with for mutilating her husband's face and head with her finer- nails in a family jar.
