SUCCESS OF MR. FRED MORRIS.

lt is pleas ag to note that Mr Fred Morrs, son of the late Tnomas Morri., Ki.q., of this city, 1* winning distinction ar a piavist in the city of Mootresl. Toe Montreal papers warmly commer bis pl ving. For exam ple The Star (Mareh 30) notices a recital given by Konigsburg’s pupile aud save:

“The recital was thoroughly enjoyable in many respects, one or two of the per formers fairly astoni~bing their auditor+ by the exceilence of their playing aod their brilliant technique. The execution of Mr. Fred Morris was especially notab'e. He contributed four sumbers io all, the hest being the “Perpetual Motion,” by Weber. Rabenstein’s “E ude” was also a mo-t pleasing pumber, being fall of life and vivecity.”

Tue Gazette was equally complimentary to Mr. Morris. It said:

“The playiog of Mr. Fred E. Morris was, undoubtedly, the feature of the even- ing.”

It is very pl-asing to hear that the young mev of F. E. I-land are winning success in otber parts of the world not ovly in the search for wea!th and bonor but aleo in respect to the higher aspirations that are gratified by the culiure of art and music

The celebration of the Easter festival | in the Firet Methodist church closed jas evening with a carol service under the direction of Prof-s-or Watis. The atiend- ance was large, avd those who were pre-- ent eperk in terms of praise of the ren- dering of the various instrumenta) ard voce] numbera on the interesting pro- gramme. Professor Watts ably sustained his reputation aS an organist of rare abilitv, and in bis ac~ com paniments as well as in his other work gave the tullest satisfactions The carols were ai] exquisitely rendered and the choruses were particularly good. The soloix-ts were Mrs. Watte, Miss Temple, and Miss He'tie Coliings, the latter iaking the plece of Mr. Davison who was ruffer- iog fromfa culd,and they gave a sympathetic and highly accep'ebly interpretation. Th si rvice was opened ty Rev. Mr. Campbell w .oasked the audience to j>in in an expres- sion of praise aod thanks to Almighty God upon the safe retvrn to their homes of the Island n e-chan 8 wreck-d on the Labredor, and closed with the Natwnal Anthem.

FERGUSON.

Sir,— Owing to my absence from the I-land duriog the meeting of tne Fruit Growers’ Association. and a slight indiss position since my returv, | | ave been un able to cousider, up to the present time, the situation crea ed by my +) ction as President of thai boiy. While lam duly sensible of the confi tence which the choice of the As-ociation implies, yet l am» the opinion that my aodsence trom the Island for the next three or perbaps four months would seriously interfere with the prosecution by me, as Present, of the work of the Association.

In coming to this coaclasion, 1 am not influenced by any apprehension that the circumstance of the more active officers of the Acsociation be.og Coaservatives would in any way weuken the support to be ren- d-red from all cla ses of the community, as well ae from the Kederal aud Provincial Governments, in the prosecution of the work of orchard deve! opement. As Mr, Bovyer Las well remarked, the high plane oo which the dairy movement has been inaugurated aod carried torward will eure- lv vo: be discarded in fruit mattere by the iotroduction of paltry considerations of party politics. I am the more conofi- dent 02 this poiat from the fact that my nomination to the Presidency of the Frait Growers’ Association was, | am informed, wrought about by the action of Liberals in that bedy.

In respectfully declining the office of President ot the Arsociation for the ensu- ing yeur, itis a source of satisfaction to me that the position will devolve on a man 80 well qual fied to discharge its duties as Mr. Stewart, of Hamilton, who was un- animously elected Vice President at the annual meeting. I do not know what Mr. Svewari’s politics are, and that does not matter, but I know bim to be au

enthusiastic fruit grower. It will afford me great pleasure to assiet him in every way in mv power to promote the fruit growing industry.

The resolution of the Arsociation to apply ite fucds to orchard instraction is iu uy opinion a good one, and I earnestly bope that La» co-operation ofthe Provin~ cial and Federal Governments may be given so a3 to make the work as geveral and effective as possible, A firat -class iastructor at work for the next six mouths, teaching the people howto graft, spray, prune, piant aod pack would,io a few yearr, return bie salary a thousand-fold in the prosperity whick would ensue. My sug- gestion is that the Fruit Growers’ Associa - tion aod Provincial Government hand over their contributions to the Department of Agriculture on the andersitanding that « Federal contribation would be forthcom- ing aod the work put under the control of the Commissioner of Agriculture. From what we krow of Professor Robertson, we are satisfied it will be well done.
