Freneh Canadian Farmers.
A correspondent of the Montreal (Gazetie directs attention to the remarkable advance- ment in agriculture made in recent years by the French-Canadian farmers of the pro- vince, and he attributes this gratifying pro- gress in a large measure to the construction of colonization railways. As he points out, there were no more successful exhibitors at the recent exhibition at Sherbrooke in re- spect of products of the soil than the French-Canadians, whose display of grain, vegetables and dairy. produce would have lone credit to the most fertile land and in- dustrious people of any county in Ontario or the Maritime Provinces. The opening up of well settled districts to the principal
L.
of the railway subventions pursued by the Dominion and Quebec Governments has unquestionably contributed greatly to bring about this great result, since farmers
ow enabled to obtain supplies and imple- ments much more readily and more econo- mically than before, are given the oppor- tunity of visiting previously more favored sections and of acquiring valuable know- ledge they are not slow to utilize, and are brought into direct competition with the producers of all parts of the Province. The trench-Canadian farmer has proved himself alive to these advantages andgapplying his opportunities, is able to justly pride him- self upon an ability to successfully compete with the agriculturists of any other portion of the Dominion. a —— Horsferd’s Acid Phosphate.

The Fire Yesterday.
| Apout five o’clock yesterday afternoon, agentleman passing the residence of Mr. William Murray, corner of Pownal and Dorchester Streets, discovered smoke issuing from between the shingles on the southern side of the building. He at once intormed Mr. Murray, and, together with some of the family, they proceeded to enquire into the cause of the smoke.
After considerable search they made the | discovery that fire had, from some unknown ‘cause, started between two beams inside _the plaster in the sitting room on the first j floor. The alarm was at once given, and a igeneral turnout of the firemen and citi- zens generally ensued.
A large hole was cut in the wall, from which smoke and flames issued at an alarming rate, and in a short time the house was enveloped in a thick cloud of smoke, which rendered it almost impossible fora person to remain inside any length of tame. The smoke, however, did not ‘prevent the citizens and firemen who were early on the scene from working with a will to stay the progress of the flames.
Water was applied through the aperture in the wall of the sitting room as well as through another in the wall of the bed room immediately above, and in a_ short time tho fire was extinguished, not, how- ever, before the furniture and carpets were | flooded with water and knocked about con- siderably. The loss is estimated at $200 an is covered by insuranec,
The Salvage Corps were promptly on the scene and did good work removing the fur- niture. Silsby was out before the bell rang, and the fire department generally were on hand in good time.
Mr. Murray desires us to return his sin- cere thanks to the firemen, neighbors and citizens generally, who so kindly assisted _ in saving his dwelling sad household ofvcte.
el eee Resolution of Condolence.
Berrore adjourning, the Teachers’ Con- vention unanimously passed the following resolution, which was moved by Mr. J. W. pease and seconded by G. W. Suther- ana:
Whereas, Since we last met in annual Con- vention we have been called upon to mourn the death of one of our members.
Therefore Resolved, That we place upon re- cord vuc heartfelt sorrow for the death of our fellow teacher, Charles R. McNeill, who, by the inany estimable qualities of his character, endeared himself to his many acquaintances in his chosen profession.

Srr,—Whatever may be thought of Free Trade generally, it is quite evident that a great many persons still believe im free trade inrum, At the Georgetown Exhibi- tion, the other day, the exhibits in the various branches of industry were highly creditable to the County. The day was fine, and the Commissioners painstaking and courteous, ‘There was only one draw- hack to what would otherwise have been a most successful and pleasant Exhibition. There was too much rum there. All day long intoxicated men might be seen stagger- ing about the show grounds ; and although Georgetown is responsible for part of the blame, I am inclined to think that all the liquor was not purchased there, for some were more than ‘‘half seas over” when they arrived.
Now, | for one am willing to let bygones be bygones, but in the interests of the County I hope that means may be taken to prevent a recurrence of the scenes wit- nessed this year at our County Show. If not, the rumsellers and their victifis may have the exhibitions all to themselves, as peaceable, sober men will be inclined to avoid them,
What should be done to remedy the evil? This at least: In the absence of a police force, such as you have in Charlotte- town, about twenty or twenty-five special constablesshould be sworn in onthe morning of the Exhibition. There is a commodious jail in Georgetown, and as the head of that institution has not se much to do since imprisonment for debt was abolished, his services could he utilized on state occasions like this.
Trusting that the Commissioners may make a note of this suggestion,
I remain, Yours, TEMPLAR.
