M

presen - Agriculture ard Industry, welcome Your

Honor on this the first occasion of its being held in Georgetown.

We can assure Your Honor that, per copaily, we bave endeavored to render it enecess{ul; and trust that it may prove in every respect as interesting as we believe it to be important.

lleid at the close of a very fruitful season, when the labors of our farmers have met with a very abundant return we anticipate an unusally fine display of agricnitural and horticultural products, We feel culed upon, in a spirit of thank- fainess, to record our sense of the many bicssings in this respect which a good and kind Providence has, for several years past, bestowed upon ihe inhabitants of this Province.

We likewise believe that your Honor will {ind other branches of mdustry well represented, and observe marks of pro gress and improvement in the articles ex~ hibited in every department,

Yhe public interest taken in these ex- hibitions appears to be on the inerease in ev -ry part of the civilized world, evidenc- ing a feeling on the part of the intelligent portion of the people of their value and importance.

Fully recognizing this fact and declaring our convection that these Exhibitions should be maintained, we have neverthe~ les; fel’, in endeavoring to discharge our duties, the inadequacy of the mean.®placed at our disposal, and we trust we may be allowed to express our opinion that a larger gaunt of the public moneys for the purpose than bas beretofore usually been made, might hereafter be made with ad- ya tige tothe public.

As Commisoners we have welcomed Your [fonor to Georgetown, but we feel eontijent we may go farther; and do so on beb iif, not only of the inhabitants of this Jown, but of the whole people of the Pro vince, who are always happy to see you among them.

We all unite in cordially wishing for Your Hovor all health and happiness,

‘yn behalf of Commissioners, D. Gorvon, Chairman,

the whole, very good. Miss McFarlane, of Souris, and Miss Hacker, of Wilmot Val- ley, each exhibited nice pictures; while a bunch of flowers painted from nature by a daughter of Dr. Beer, were really well done. Mr. E. Wetherbie, of Georgetown, exbibited a collection of tools, which for

finish could hardly be surpassed ; and the harness was good and well-finished. Among the articles which we cannot for= bear voticing this morning, were Mr, tleard’s collection of grapes, tomatoes and onions .

To the Editor of the Daily Examiner :

Mr. Eprtor,—Has the City Council ever thought of erecting a windmill at John Heartz’s, pump, Gallows Hill, Some say this water is superior to Spring Park water for drinking purposes, and I greatly believe itis. Besides, how handy it would be to turn the taps and get water enough withs out any trouble. One thing is certain, a water supply is wanted for Charlottetown, and Ward 5 in particular. Should a fire take place, our wells ara so deep that the engines can do but little to save property.

| MACKENZIE ON TEMPERANCE REFORM.

‘ur meeting last night was fully attend- ed, and we learn that the Market Hall will be occupied with snother meeting still larger, ‘The choir was composed of ladies and gentlemen from several churches, who sang with effect several hymns—''I will Guide Thee with Mine Eye,” *‘ Pull for the Shore,” “Go, Bury thy Sorrow,” “ Hold the Fort.” After a bymn, followed by prayer from the Rey. Mr. Fitzgerald, Mr. McKenzie addressed the meeting; referred to the fact of his being Superintendant of an Inebriate Asylum, the Appleton Tem- porary Home, of Needham, Mass.; spoke of the need of such an Institution, caused by this terrible vice; warned his audience that this city had its own full share of the misery of intemperance; told of his own experience and of what he had seen in many instances—families degraded, intem-~ perance taught at home, insanity inherit~ ed form intemperate parents, and all the long list of evil. ,In spite of a severe cold he made the audience warm up with the enthusiasm which is a part of his nature.

Mr. Stethen, of the Halifax Reform

Club, gave in his opinion to the teaching of Mr. McKenzie. Told his own story of reformation—a story, grateful in its sequel, we are sure, to himself and at once a warn. ing and an encouragement t& those before him who were treading the same_ path. Mr. Davies, of the Pictoa Reform Club, spoke of the great success of the organiza« tion in his town, and called on Charlotte~ town to do—what he felt certain it would be able todo—roll up a splendid list in less than a week. After some words from Mr, McKenzie again, the people were called onjto sign the, and the list at the close showed 46 names.

THE

Mapame Cora and Company again per- formed last night toa small, but appres ciative audience, The ‘sleight of hand” was dexterous and marvellous; the super- natural vision baffled the wisdom of the most philosophic, while in the ‘Couch of the Angels’ the different characters were vividly and beautifully portrayed.

This Company are noted for their many acts of generosity towards charitable objects, and in their tours round the world have frequently given benefits in aid of such. Following out their generous impulses, the management announce that there will be no performance tosnight; but that tos morrow afternoon, at two o'clock, there will be a Matinee, for the accommodation of ladies and children (the admission to which will be 25 and 10 cents); and at eight o’clock a performance, half the gross proceeds of which will be given in aid of our long talked-of, but longer wanted hospital, ‘The Concert given a week or two ago in aid of the same object formed a neuclus around which funds will rapidly gather if the matter be properly taken in, hand, It should, indeed, be a matter of reproach to us that the only efforts that bave so far been put forward with this bumane object in view, have been by sTRANGERS; and remembering the maxim that “ Heaven helps those who help thems
