yesterday, the express train stood in the usual place at the Summerside station. Two teams were being driven past when one of the horses, frightened by the escaping steam from the engine, became unmanagable and bounded into tue aceompanying team. Both wagons were overturned and the occupants—two ladies and two gentlemen — were thrown violently to the ground. It appeared as if one of the ladies would have been trodden to death by the infuriated horse, but luekily help was at hand and all escaped serious injury. An improvement is muéh required at the place referred to, and we hope the railway depart- ment will attend to the matter. ou

KING'S COUNTY EXHIBITION

lield at Georgetown To-Day.

A VERY GOOD EXHIBIT.

LARGE NUMBER OF PEOPLE PRESENT.

GroreErown, Sept. 29. rhe annual Exhibition for King’s County opened here to-day at one o'clock, when the Chairman of the Commissioners, Hon. D. Gordon, presented His Honor Lieuten-

ant-Governor Macdon*ld with the following address :—

To the Honorable Andrew Archibald donald, Lieutenant Governor Edward Island, de., dc., dc. May tt Piease Your Honor,—The Com-

missioners appointed to manage the King’s

County Exhibition for the year 1887 have

much pleasure in welcoming Your Honor on

the present occasion.

Chey feel gratified to think that your Honor's interest in the welfare of this your native County, continues unabated, and they feel assured that the exhibits in this building md on the cattle show grounds will amply demonstrate the progress and improvement that are yearly being made. It isgrte that in some classes of live stock the advancement made has not reached so high a point as could yet we feel satisfied that the excellence of many of the animals exhibited here to-day, will justify the belief that in the near future this County will compete success- fully with the more favored sections of this Province.

We feel assured that Your Honor will be greatly pleased to notice the excellent quality of the cereals and vegetables shown in the Drill Shed, giving evidence, as they do, of the bountifal harvest with which this part of the Dominion has been favored.

We regret that the fruit crep is not so vbundant as last year, but the interest awakened in this important industry will, no doabt, be maintained, as many new orchards have been planted this season in various sections of this County.

We feel satistied that spontaneous expres- sions of loyalty, which the jubilee year of Her Most Gracious Majesty evoked, is the » best assnrance of the love and respect entertained by the people of this County for our Sover- eign. We trust that Queen Victoria may long be spared to relgn over us. :

To you and Mrs. Macdonald we again accord a hearty welcome, and now request Your Honor to open this Exhibition.

Mac- of Prince

be desired,

His Honor made a suitable reply, after which he declared the Exhibition open.

Thousaads of people, among whom are a large number of prominent citizens of Charlottetown, are present. The weather is beautiful.

The show of horses is very fine, and the sheep fair,but the cattle are rather inferior.

The exhibits in the Drill Shed look very well, but are not so numerous as last year.

Another Victory. Orrawa, Sept. 2%. At the Charlevoix. election yesterday, Cimon (straight Government) was elected by a majority of four hundred. This is a Government gain.

ANOTHER DESPATCH. (QuEBEC, Sept. 28. Cimon has? been} elected for Charlevoix, for the Federal house, by abont 500.

A Dastardly Act.

Orrawa, Sept. 23.

An elderly woman, Mrs. Mullins, who was to have left to-day for Scotland. to claim a fortune, is lying at the point of death. She drew $1,000 from the bank yesterday, and on returning home she was accosted by three men, one of whom held a chloroformed handkerchief to her nose till she grew unconscious. She was not dis- covered for three hours, and her money had disappeared.

Forest Fires. Montreal, Sept. 28.

Farest fires are still raging on the Penin- sula. In consequence of the smoke nine steamships which have cleared are nnable to leave. Amongst these are three with cattle on board and the mail steamer Ore- sole

Phe Quebec boat did not leave Montreal last night and will not to-night.

A

Senator McMaster’s Will.

Toronto, Sept. 28.

it is rumored in legal circles that the heirs of the late Senator McMaster will contest his will. It is claimed that his donation of $800,000 to McMaster Univer- ity is veil, owing to the fact that McMaster University dues not legally exist until Nov- meber I.

That Election Petition.

Hairax, Sept. 28. Judge McDonald gave judgement to-day in the Coichester election petition. He was of opinion that there was not sufticient evidence to personally disqualify the Minister as the acts were not sufticiently within his knowledge.

Movements of the Ministers.

Toronto, Sept. 28. The Mail’s cable of London, 27th, says Sir Charles Tupper sailed to-day for Capada. Mackenzie Bowell returns to-day and Chapleau on Thursday.

Monrreal, Sept. 28.

Terms of Credit.

The following information Lespecting the terms of credit allowed in various coun tries is derived from reports of United States consuls published by the Govern- ment :—

It appears that in Germany the credit system is very widespread, and that the time allowed purchasers to settle their ac counts is generally much longer than in France and England. Nearly every com- mercial and manufac'u ing branch of busi- ness has its own particular terms of credit, and there is no uniformity in this respect.

In England, a payment of the price of the goods delivered is required at the end of three months, dating from the day of shipment.

In France, a four months’ acceptance is required to be sent in settlement of the in- voice.

In Italy, but little credit business - is done, and none without godd security being given.

In Spain, four-fifths of the transactions is done on a cash basis, while in Portugal great liberality is shown, and quite a long credit is usually allowed.

In Austria, it is scarcely possible to do business without allowing a very long credit which is always one of six months.

In Turkey, even objects of prime neces sity are, sold on credit, and in this country, as well as in Russia, the time allowed is in most cases twelve months.

In Mexico the large commercial houses willingly give credit for from six to eight months, and in the retail trade long terms are given customers in which to settle their accounts. In Costa Rica a credit of from six to twelve months is given in case of wnerchandise imported from Europe, in order that the goods may be easily and quickly disposed of. But since this system of credit has often led to losses it is now being given up.

In Cuba the time fixed for payment is generally four to five months after delivery of the goods.

The Consul General of the United States at Rio states that one of the greatest draw- backs to commercial intercourse with Brazil resides in the necessity of allowing too long acredit. At Rio Janeiro, as in Buenos Ayres, the minimum credit is six months and even more.

In the Bermudas accounts are settled but once a year. The 30th of June isthe day usually fixed for the payments.

In Asia Minor, a credit of but two or three weeks is in most cases al] that is al- lowed.

In China it is not customery to give credit. Moaey is obtained from lenders, who exact an interest of from 8 to 12 per cent. Business is nearly allconducted upon a cash basis.

In Australia, a credit of six generally allowed.
