THis Exhibition was The day was beautiful, with people, and the Show Grounds, although entries was not so numerous as on former oceasions, was very good. Among the carriage horses that attracted attention and favorable comment were those of Mr. Collings, of Sturgeon, Mr. Power, of New Perth, and Mr. “Hibbett, of Georgetown. In the class for cart horses, Stockman was generally acknowledged to be the finest three- -year- old cart stallion that ever stood in King’s County. The cart mares, with their foals, were also well represented, and we noticed some very fine young cart horses exhibited by Mr. P. Brothers, of Brothers’ Road, Mr. Clement Sinnott, of Morell, and Mr. Ronald McKenzie, of Dundas. The show of cattle was not very extensive, but some very fine animals could be noticed. The Ayrshire bulls of Mr. Alex. Hamilton and Mr. Leslie Poole, of Lower Montague, were excellent both for size and breeding, and the Shorthorn bulls exhibited by Messrs. O’ Hanley, Mellish and Owen would be adinired at any Exhibition.

Mr. James Donohoe, Roseneath, also showed a fine two and a hali year old Shorthorn bull that weighed 1,290 pounds ; but the superior quality of Mr. Alexander Smith’s bull in the same class captured first prize. The cows shown by Messrr. A. C. McDonald, F. G. Bovyer and Robert Dewar, were excellent animals, and the Shorthorn bull calves of Mr. Robert Dewar were highly creditable.

Although the show of sheep was small in number, some very superior animals could be noticed, Messrs. Bovyer, Robert Dewar and William Gordon divided

the honors pretty well amongst their flocks, but the Long wool ram shown by Mr. Peter Stewart, and the Down rams shown by Mr. Michael Power, Summerville, and Mr.

New Perth and off most of the honers for butter, aH cheese, and Mr. John Robertson Inkerman Farm, secured most of the prizes for Roots and Vegetables. “The, Fruit Show was the feature of the exhibitfon. Apples, both cooking and eating were shown in ureat abundance and no betber evidence of the capabilities of this Island in Fruit cul- ture could be desired. We noticed some very fine Plums shown by Mrs. Norton of Brudenell, that were of a new variety and Mrs. William Thompson's grafted Damsons were immense. We also noticed some cul- tivated Cranberries that looked very fine, but did not learn who exhibited them.

As for fancy work and textile fabrics, no pen of man could describe their beauty and variety, and those who did not see the display must only regret that they were not present at the King’s County Exhibition this year.

The following is a copy presented his HoriSr Governor Mact

w. ANDREW A. Mac- GOVERNOR OF THE EpWARD IsLanp, &c,

To His Honor, THE DONALD, LIEUTENANT PROVINCE OF PRINCE

May it Please Your Honor :

The Commissioners entrusted with the management of King’s County Exhibition, 1886, beg leave to express our gratilication at having your Honor’s presence on this occa- sion, and have much pleasure in offering you a cordial weleome,

We think it a matter for congratulation that this exhibition manifests the continued interest which the people of this County take in those annual competitions,

We gratefully acknowledge the goodness of | Divine Providence in exempting this County and Province from the serious disasters which have caused such desolation and loss of life in other countries.

Reviewing the results of the labors of the husbandman for the past season, whilst the hay crop was lighter than usual, it will be found that all other agricultural products have been abundant. The greater attention paid to the cultivation of fruit is evidenced by the numerous excellent samples displayed this year.

We venture to hope that your Honor will, on inspection of the contents of this building, find that the articles entered for competition as products, both of the field and garden, and the result of the industry of our people, indi- cate careful calture, progress and improve- ment.

We feel assured that the advancement in stock raising that is so visible in the exhibit on the Cattle Show Grounds will afford your Honor mach@satisfaction, and we have every reason to believe that the recent importation of your Government, of improved animals for this County, will materially aid in raising the character of our live stock.

In conclusion, we desire to tender our as surance of respect and regard for your Honor personally,

For self and County Commissioners, D. GORDON, Chairman. Exhibition Building, Geo'town, Sept. 30, 1886.

His Honor the Lieut. Governor in reply- ing to the address presented to him by the Commissioners of the King’s County

blessings which the people enjoy in this Province, to our exemption from the earth- quakes, storms and disasters with which so many other places had been devastated, to the beautiful season we have enjoyed, and to the excellent return yielded by the wheat crop of the present year, whigh had not been equalled within the past forty years in this Province,and stated that he be- lieved the average would not be exceeded in any of the lower provinces of the Dominion. He recommended the more general plant- ing of fodder, corn or vetches, and oats for green fodder for stock during the dry sum- mer months, when pastures are poor, and stated that the importation by the Govern- ment of improved stock for breeding pur- poses had this year been largely. supple- mented by similar importations both from Great Britain and foreign countries made by private parties. He advised all to se- cure the services of the very best animals in all classes, as it cost no more to raise good stock than it did to bring through the poorest scrubs, while good animals always commanded a ready market and much larger prices.

Referring to the Colonial and Indian Ex- hibition still going on in London, he stated that it had been so successful that it was now to be made permanent. That not only in agricultural exhibits, in which it might be expected to excel, but in the display of fruits, and in manufactures, and in fact in every department in which it had competed, our country had occupied a foremost posi- tion, which was exceedingly gratifying not only to those who, as exhibitors, Lad con- tributed directly to it, but must he so to every inhabitant of the Dominion.

After congratulating the people of King’s County on the display made in the build- ing and on the grounds, the productions, stock and manufactures of the County, His Honor cloged by thanking the commission- ers and judges for their patriotic attention to their duties, which had made this Ex- hibition so successful,

The Exhibition was opened at one o'clock, by His Honor Governor Macdonald, to whom an Address of welcome was tendered by Hon. D. Gordon, chairman of the commissioners, to which His Honor replied in an able speech of about one hour in length.

In conclusion, we cennot help making par- ticular mention of the excellent arrange- | ments made by the Commissioners and the | Secretary of the Exhibition, to whom, and his assistants— Messrs. John EK. Morson, Mark } Henry and K. W. Cameron, too much praise | cannot be given for the admirable manner in | which the prize list was filled out, and for| courtesies extended to the Press representa- tives.

The Prize List will appear to-morrow.
