Iw addition to the County Exhibitions

tu be held, in a few days, at the towns of Georgetown and Summerside respect- ively, a Previncial Exhibition, open to competitors ot the whole Province, wil) take piace at the City of Charlottetown

on the 12th and 13th of October uext. The prize lists for these three several

exhib'tions are well arranged and attrac-

tive; and we have every reason to be- lieve that the committees of manage- ment willspare no pains to have the ar- rangemen!s that have been already made,

For persons possessed of such senti- mettal old time longing, it might be well to set aparta special department at our ExLibitions.. An antiquarian collection for their edification, and perhaps im- provement, might be secured such as the following: hair repes, ox yekes, flails, fisg collars, tug pins and straw traces and brichen, wooden spoons, pod augers, etc. Such a collection of the lost arts, if pixeed on exhibition, would doubtless

It ts this: | Ou the evening of the Provincial Exhi-| biion a public meeting should be held | in ihe Market Hall or Academy o rer. MPusic—His Honor the Lieutenant Gov- ;

ernor presiding—for the purpose otf giving farmers and others interested in the in- dustries of the country an epportunity of cousultation and exchange of ideas cn the subject of erop and stock raising and kindred topics connected with prac- tical agriculture.

Stock raising, as an industry in this Iglaud, is but in its infancy. A subsidy was granted last session by the Dominion Government in aid of a steamer as a pioneer in the export trade in catt'e from this Island to Europe. ‘This we believe to be the beginning of a trade whose Importance cannot be too highly estimat- ed. !n order that our farmers may keep pace with the times in stock-raising, as in other matiers, they must avail themselves of fell information on the subject. The growing importance of beef as a farm product is causing much euquiry ea this of the Atlantic. Is is found that

the uative stock cannot be fed profitably. Pure bred cattle are coming more ane more to the front, and the question among

edvaneed farmers is not as to ‘deticiies valu ative stock and pure breed, but rather which of the pure breeds, the

j t lord, the Devon, the polled Aber-

deen or Angus, or the Shorthorn . is the profitable toraise. The Shorthoros

d to be the most popular both for

y purpose There are

i , e nware. WhO dispute this tnere a : differences o!

e ion amo y them as regards the kiad of caitle that are most profitable to raise, we certainly think that a meeting of practical Acriculturists might be convened onlasuit-

able evening at the time of the Exhibition, when these and similar subjects might be diseussed with great advantage. We merely throw out this suggestion with the view of inviting attention to a branch ef industry hitherto almost entirely over- looked in this Province by the ordinary agriculturist.

A new company has been formed in Paris vider the name of La Societe Fraacaise de Phocphates de Canada, for working phosphate weives in Buckingham County, Qucbee. The ea, ital is one million and a half of francs. Tue company has purchased 5,009 acres of land, for which they have paid §60,000. It is proposed to ship 25,000 tons next season to Cagland and France. The president is Mr. J. A. Chaeriot managing director of La Com. pagoie Gordclaise de Navigation, and M ssrs. \.

Sir Jehn A. McDonald, being in Mon- ireal, Was interviewed by the cor: espondent

of the Toronts Mail ia reference to his opin- ion of the Jrish Land Act, Mr. Gladstene’s popularity, the standing of the Gladstone Government, the Parneliites, eto. Sir Jehn appears to have replied with bis usual frank- ness en all points. He regards the oe Act as a decidediy beneficent Act, not ¢

spoiling the landlords and greatly bens. fitting ‘the tenants, and thinks it must be adv antageous to the country. The English peep le, he says, regard it as the thin edge of the wedge that may be driven into the land system of their own country. Sir John says it is on the tapis that Mr. Glad- stone wil at next session bring in a | ill for the abelition of primogeniture. ‘The passage of the Irish Land Act is looked up on as certain evidence that he will recog- nize the land laws of England also.” In res gard to Mr. Gladstone’s leadership, Sir

John says that Mr. Gladstone stands very : ? high in the opi

to the support of his #m:néments to the bill, was wonderfully skillful, and his claims to the leadership of his party are univers ae recognizec. ir Stafford Noith- cote, the leader of the Conservatives in the Commons, Sir John describes as ‘a very able man, whose knowledge of ccnstitu- tional questions and precedents is not sur- passed by any man in the Honse. He is a goed debater and a clever financier, having been educated under Mr. Gladstone, and has the allegiance of his party in an emin- ent degree.” In answer to the question: “Is he strong enough to lead the Conserva- tives on te victory egain, as Earl Beacens field did before him?’ Sir John replied :

‘* It is difficult to change a minority into a

majority, but Sir Stafford is a good and | popular leader, and his party have the

fullest confidence in him.” Next to Si Statlor Hen. Mr. Stanhope and Lord George Hamilton seemed to be the leaders of the Conservative party, at least in the Commons. Sir John was asked if Lord |

the House of Irish Land: ‘Sanmeeee’ Are | they considered the hungry, needy dema- gogues some of the cvrrespondents make them our ?

Sir John—Weil, opinions in England about these gentlemen vary considerably. Of course, some look upon them with sus- picion, ut others are more charitabie.

(), What is your opinion regarding their motives !

Sir John— Well, I think they generally act from conscientious feelings of doing their best for the country. No doubt some may be impelled by ambition, but that is net to be condemned.

The correspondent questioned Sir John ‘n reference to Canadian credit in England, and drew from the Premier statemen‘s similar to what he has already made in puislic In reference to the Princess Lou. ise, the dialegue 1s interesting to ladies aa well as gentlemen in the Dominion.

©. It has been stated here by people who have just returned from England that the Princess Louise is by no means loeking well !

Sir John—The accident which her Royal Highness met with at Rideau Hall was greatly underrated at the time it happened, aud was not thought to be as serions as it turned ont in its effects to be afterwards. There is no doubt the Princess suffered very severelv in her health by it. For a long tit e after her return home her health required constant care and attention. Dur-

ing the past month or two she has improved immensely, and is fairlyon the read to heaszlit

Reacilil ALA.

Q. Is it trne she has lost the resy fresh- ness in her checks, and has becoime gale and _ since her departure from Canada?

Sir John—it is true she did lose her fresh app earance and became thinner after returning to Englaud, but latterly she has regained nearly ail her freshness aud beauty again.

Q. Did she reg: et very much being absent

vem Canda se long ?

Sir John—-Yes, she deeply regretted it, and always spoke of Canada with the utmest affection.

Q. Is it certain she leaves for England by the Allan steamer on the 20th of October !

Sir John—Quite certain; all the ar- rangements for the voyage are completed.

An impertant question raised in the in- terview was the state of Sir John’s health. In reply to interrogatories en this point, Sir John said

Sir John—Well, 1 feel wonderfully re- cuperated, but I do net feel quite so strong as before my iliness.

Q. Are you entirely out of the hands « the doctors?

Sir Joha—Yes.

Q ave they prescribed any special regiises and lad down any rules as to work to be followed by you her reafter ?

Sir Je oha— Well, yes. I have received directiona to adhere to low diet, and was warned «gains! overwork.

Q. Have you felt any bad effect from your visit here, and the physical strain that it has caused ?

Sir John—None whatever; I feel ex- tremely well.—St. John Sun.

Ir is said that the vast sums lying dormant in the Chancery Courts of Great Britain would make a large hole in the national debt. They amount to many millions. Though these enormous sums are awaiting rightful claimants there is no properly arranged list of titles to be precnred. A partial list was published by the Government towards the close of last cen- tary, and spother—a complete one—in 1877 But no cemplete alphabetic record for public reference is published. There must be hun- dreds of people living who are entitled te vast sums and don’t know it.

Inquest.—An inquest was held on the 26th inst., at Souris, before Dr. KE B. Muttart, one of the Coroner’s for King’s County. on view of the body of Benjamin Lohnes, fisherman on board the schooner ‘* Welcome,” Captain Himmerme!man, of Lunenburg, N.S. From the evidence it appears that the deceased, who was a man about 60 years of age, was last seen alive about 9 o’clock Sunday evening. ao t morning (26ih) the schooner was got

eder way and proceeded about a mile, when prweh was odenal. After searching on board = vessel the Captain put back to port end

ommenced dragging for the body alongside the wharf at which his vessel lay ‘duriog the

ght. He had not searched long when it was ice red. Lehnes is spoken of a quiet, in. offensive man. Wo evidence of foul play was brought out at the ingvest. The jury re- turned a verdict in accordance with the facts. The body was decently interred at Souris West, the FPevs. Messrs. Stebbings and Cameron covducting the funeral services. —_— le ——

TEMPERA¥CE IN Sovuris.—A number of the leading men of Souris, with a desire for tem- perance work, determined to have a branch of the old order of the Sons of Temperance (an order regarded by Sir Leonard Tilley as the standing army of temprrauce) formed in their midst, and last evening, (Tues ‘ay) in response to a formal application, a meeting was held in the neat little hall of the Oddfellows, and ‘*Pheenix” Division, No. 126, with 19 charter members, was sent out on its mission of tem- per. nce benevolence and brotherly love. The G. W. Patriarch, D. Rogers. of Freetown, and Provincial Deputy Chappelle, conducted the csremony of organization. The staff of officers are as follows : —

The ‘Weather and the Crops ia England.

las Globe correspondent, writing on the 12th inst. says :—

‘‘The weather has centinued SOOTY i wet throughout most districts ot England |

and Scot! jand, and the farmers seem to |

have scareely any loophole of escape from

the effecta of the wet autumn. English hus- |!

bancry is well described as in a * dila- pidated condition,” fer the number of farms already to be let throughout the length and breadth of the land, together with the further large percentage of hold ings that will be thrown upon the hands of the owners at the end of the present quarter, is something beyond all precedent. But though a considerable percentage ef the present generation of farm ers will be ruined, or their circumstances so altcred that they are compelled to give up farming and take to some other bus ueas, or where they have money enough to suppert themselves, retiring, it would be a vieat mistake to suppose that that which always has been the case in the past vil not happen again in the future, and that the British farmers will have a series of good years whose prospects and results shall be us bright, and hopeful, and rich in profit as the past eight or bine years have be yn barren of grain. Temporarily, con- siderable tracts of att in the United Kingdom may go ont of cultivation, but land in England, subjeet to such temporary depreciztions of value as the peesent will, us the nation gets wealthier, year by year increase in value as ib has inereased 10 value decade by dec- ade during the last century and a half. And now is the time for fas at capi tialists to do whet the wise rich men did in the past —in times of panic and disaster to purchase all the land they ceuid pay for at its depre- ciated price, to enjoy a rich harvest of profit when the reaction has set in, as soun- er or later it invariably will do. This policy, I need hardly add, our long-headed men are vigorously p UTBULDR 5 and lands, lesirable or undesirabl; that comes into the market readily find purchas- ers. Land im England will = al- ways’ repay eultivation, and constitute the safest of all investments for capital, paying a amall but certain rate of interest, and the only thing the purchaser need trouble his head about is te get it cheap enough, for it will always let at a rent that will pay 24 per cent. upon hiscapital. And as there always has been, so for a certainty there will continues to be, a steady interest in the value of land that must be taken into consideration when the investor in land

consents for a ssries of years to accept a rate

of interest for his money lewer than that which would be afforded by consuls.

New Glasgow Notes.

Mr. Smith has satisfactorily completed his werk on the bridge, which is now quite safe, aud considerably improved in appear- ance.

New Glasgow being situated within four

miles of Hunter River Station, and in the centre of a populous district, should have a daily mail. We understand that a petition wiil shortiy he laid before the government praying for increased mail accommodation. ; Mr. Geooye Pethick left here last F ‘riday fer Halifax en rather en agreeable mission, viz : to obtain possession of a little fortune lef: him by a rich old relative.

Mr. George Steverson of this place, who for the last few years has been doing an extensive business as a general agent for all kinds of agricultural implements, will have on hand short'y, an improved Ame- rican Potato Digger, which is guaranteed to place the potatoes in rows without cevering them, ard in every respect to give perfect satisfaction. This is the kind of a digger that the farmers of our Island have been waiting for, and we feel sure they will not

be slow in giving Mr. Stevenson’s a fair

trial.

It isa source of comfort, to those who

are fond of the ardent, that certificates to obtain liquer under the Scott Act, can be got with much less difficulty than might be supposed from a superficial reading of the Aet, but of eourse the Act requires to be carefully read to be rightly understood. New Glasgow, Sept. 27, 1881.
