It is said

Tue [ixhibition at formally opened on Wednesday. that the show of fruit at this exhibition was the finest ever witnessed in Nova Scotia—one hundred and fifty varieties being represented. The exhibit of cattle was superior to all pre yious yoars, and a great improvement was noticeable in grains, roots and vegetables.

Tue Halifax Herald says:—‘‘It will be seen by our Mentreal despatch that Sir John A. Macdonald declines to state the particulars of the contract made with the new Pacific Railway Syndicate, until the meeting of Parliament. He is, however, reported as saying that the road will not cost the country any more than was pro- posed in 1873, viz.: €30,000,000 in cash and.50.000,000 acres of land. This will be bad news for our Grit friends, who were confidently expecting that the country was going to be ‘‘ruined” by the new arrange- ment. It looks as if they will have to keep on firing at the National Policy.”

230,000 MEN UNDER ARMS.

Midnight despatches from the East report that the Prisce of Montenegro, in interview- ing Admiral Seymour, expressed the strongest conviction that his troops could take Dulcigno unaided.—The answer of Riza Pasha to Ad- miral Seymour's ultimatum was most empha- tic. Riza Pasha said that his orders were to protect the integrity of Ottoman territory. He would fire on any force, Montenegrin or etherw ise.— Admiral Seymour informed Prince Nikita, of Montenegro, that he had received a telegram from the British Ambassador at Con- stantinople saying that the affair was now in the hands of the British Admiral and Prince of Montenegro. At the second conference Prince Nikita assured Admiral Seymour that his troops were ready to march to Dulcigno immediately. It has been arranged that no shot wili be fired from the fleet near the tewn of Du)cigno, but fire will be opened on Moeua and other fortified positions. The Monten- egrins are 70,000 strong, while the Albanians have }60,000 men and three field batteries. Ten Turkish batteries, under Riza Pasha, are near |ulcigno.

Theebaw, King of Burmah, has been once more aroused from his pacific mood, and has receminenced the massacre of his royal rela- tives and the nobles of his empire. It appears that bis wife and her mother and sister have been accused among others of intriguing agains: his rule, but although the desire to get rid of the drunken young murderer and the clique into whose hands ne has fallen, is justifiable enough to excuse even his nearest relatives for entertaining it, yet if is probable that the accusation arises out of the jealous fears of the King, which have been awakened probably by his advisers. The British resi- dent at Mandalay reported thatthe King’s former fears were almost wholly without foundation. The question is, will the British Government feel called upon to step in and relieve the Burmese of their King, asa large portion of them expect and desire. The for- mer Viceroy, Lord Lytton, fully intended punis)ing the King, bat it is probable that his Liberal successor will decline to under. take a work which the Burmese should ac-? complish for themselves. So long as British Burmsah is unmolested Britain may be ex- pected te refrain from interfering.

‘Tux South Americiti war is going on, not- withstanding the recent reports of probable pone It apperrs that the United States

mister Christiancy, whe has gone to Chili on @ special mission, did not go in the character of a peace maker as was reported, but to de- mand reparation for the property of United States citizens which has been destroyed dur- ing the war.

Vhe Result of the Ministerial Mission.

(From the St. John News.)

All doubts as to whether or no the Min isters railway mission to London was suc- cessful is at an end. The information ob- tained from Sir John A. Macdonald by in- terviewers since his return to Canada has closed discussion on that head. From that information it appears that an agreement, subject to the decision of Parliament, for the building and working of | the road has certainly been arrived at. Details on some points are wanting, but it has been dis- closed :

1. That the read is to be built from end to end.

® That the work is to be accemplished in ten years.

3 That the working of the road is to be done by the Company that build for a cer- tain number of years after its construction.

4. That the Company agreeing to under- take the the task has ample means at com- mand for the fulfilment of its contract.

5. That it is provided in the contract that the more difficult portions of the road shall be built parri passu with the easier section.

6. That the Company is to be paid for the work in money and land ; and

7. That the conditions will not press heavily on Dominion resources.

Awaiting fuller information before pro- neuncing a final opinion on the character of the bargain made in behalf of the Do- minion, we may here, however, observe that the satisfactory performance of this great work «in ten years must prove ex- ceedingly beneficial to Canada at large. [t will be a matter of no little importance to have faith substantially kept with Bri- tish Columbia; and British Columbia will be well content to have railway communi- cation with Central and Eastern Canada by 1890. The ratification of this agree- ment by Parliament will put an end to the railway trouble with the Pacitic Province, while the indefinite postponement of rail- way construction in British Columbia according to the Blake plan would be fraught with danger to the Union. The early completion of the whole line cannot fail to give a wonderful stimulus to the work of settlement. The continuous expenditure for a decade of millions of dollars, not drawn away from other channels of industry in the Dominion but brought from Europe for investment in this great work must tell powerfully on the business of the whole country. The relief, in consequence of this agreement, which the whole country will feel, from a burden which the boldest regarded with more or less of dread, will itself prove a great public benefit. The lightening of the pressure on the Dominion’s financial resources which will result from this agreement, will permit projects of public improvement in the Mari- time Provinces to gain-a favorable hearing from the Government and Parliament not otherwise attainable.

In short, as the matter seems now te stand, we do not see how any candid Canadian mind can come to any other conclusion than that the results of the Ministerial mission are likely to prove of incalculable value to Can- ada. There may be aspects in which the bargain may be viewed which we.could wish improved. There may be provisions in the agreement which ene could:wish improved. There may be desirable provisions omitted which we could wish to have inserted. The venomous tongue ef mere faction may some- where tind scope in the arrangement fer de- nunciations To the jaundiced vision of party the whole scheme may appear repulsive. But the sober thoughted Canadian people will, without regard to party aims and needs re- joice heartily, if the arrangement for the building and working of the Pacific Railway

shall prove to be of the surt reported. “< . ee

To the Editor of the Examiner.

Sir,—In your issue of yesterday you stated as the opinion of many in reference to the ‘* go-as-you-please” race that came off in Sum- merside recently, between Eph Clew and Un- known, was a ‘* put-up job.”

Seeing Clow’s challenge in the newspapers to any pedestrian in the Maritime Provinces, { produced a man whom I knew could ‘‘ go,” aud my only reason for not making his name

ublic, is that he has a race on hand in the United States, and knowing he would have to do good werk against Clow, did not wish to have a record onthe Island which might in- terfere with his approaching race.

I wish you to understand that Unknown never saw Clow till he met him in Summer- side, and that the opinions of your friends are as remarkable to the contestants as to myself.

Had Unknown won, I suppose your confid- ing friends would have asserted—as in this instance—that the race was a put-up affair,

Yours, &c., H. S. Harr.

THE FINANCIAL result of the Dominion Exhibition has been a great success; the sum of $25,000 was taken in for admissions to the grounds, which will leave a considerable sur- plus after paying all expenses. All branches of the wholesale and retail trade have been benelitted largely by the influx of so many strangers, A grend exposition, increasing in its scope and importance, will be held every year hereafter in Montreal. Citizen’s Com- mittee collected $13,000 for the outside amusements, and they will also have a surplus remaining.

re Sach i ei itnsinnsens Tue third anniversary of the Indepen- dent Catholic Church was held at New York on the 28th. An address over the name of
