Shortly after seven o'clock last evening, the firemen, in uniform and carrying torches, marched from the City Hall to Pownal Wharf, where they met their Excellencies the Governor-General and the Lady Stanley of Preston, and escorted them to Government House. The Citizens’ Band accompanied the firemen, and played well, of course. The display was highly creditable to all concerned.

The ball given at Government House last evening by His Honor the Lieutenant Gov- ernor and Mrs. Carvell in honor of the visit of their Excellencies the Governor General and the Lady Stanley of Preston, was, as anticipated, a must pleasant affair. The ball room was prettily and tastefully decorated with bayonets and bunting and dags and flowers, and the floor was simply perfect. A large and brilliant assemblage of the youth and beauty of the city was busily engaged attending to their cards when Lord Stanley and Mrs. Carvell, Chief Justice Sullivan and Lady Stan- ley of Preston, the Commander of H. M. SS. Canada and Mrs. Sullivan, and Captain the Honorable’ G. W. Walsh and Mrs. T. W. Dodd, took

their places for the first dance on the pro- | gramme, a set of lancers. As the music of | the Citizens Band struck up, the different groups of dancers in which could be seen mingled the brilliant blue and scarlet of the officers of H. M. S. Canada and militia of the city, made a very pleasing sight. The costumes worn by some of the ladies present were exceedingly handsome. Danc- ing was kept up with zest until two o'clock this morning. The order of dances was as follows :—

PROGRAMME. . Lancers. Valse. Polka. Mazourka. Lancers. . Schottische. Valse. - Galop. . Polka. . Lancers. Valze. . Mazourka. . Valse. . Galop. Lancers. 16. Valse.

This forenoon His Excellency visited the Colleges and Schocls of Oharlottetown. .The Lady Stanley of Preston was, on ac- count of some slight indisposition, unable to accompany him. The first visit was to St. Dunstan’s College. Here His Excel- lency and those by whom he was aecom- panied was greeted and welcomed by His Lordship the Bishop of Charlottetown, the ‘Coadjutor Bishop of Irina, Rector of the College, the teaching staff and a number of the clergy of the diocese Proceeding to the upper hall, he feund the students massed and standing ready to receive him. A piano solo was played by one of the students, and then Mr. Peter Cullen stepped forward and read and presented the following address :

To His Excellency the Right Honorable Sir Frederick Arthur Stanley, Baron Stanley of Preston, Knight Grand Cross of the Most Honorable Order of the Bath, Governor General of Canada.

Your ExceLLency,—

In unison with the’ universal welcome ascending from the hearts of the people of this Provinee, St. Dunstan’s College to-day

‘bids you welcome to our Island home We beg to tender you some slight acknowledge- ment of the high honor conferred upon. us, and the pride and pleasure we feel in re- ceiving within these humble walls him

‘whom Britain ranks amongst her noblest sons, and whom she has chosen as most

‘worthy te represent in Canada thejmajesty aud authority of her Queen.

| We recognize in you a double claim to our homage, and a double right to our re- apect. As citizena of the British Empire

‘we hasten todo’honor to him whom the Im-

‘perial Government has deputed as the re- presentative, in this portion of the Empire,

of Her Majesty, our most Gracious Queen ; ws citizens of this Dominion, we jeyful'y, yembrace this opportunity of mauifesting

‘our reverence for the chief magistrate of

‘our country in whom we see embodied all

‘the qualities that betit the head of « con-

'atitutional government, and elicit the

‘homage of a fre» people.

|+*men gana in corpore sano,” and remind- ing them that many of the best scholars of the Mother Country are the best at ath- letic pastimes. . Taking leave of their Lordships and the clergy, His Excellency proceeded to Prince r Wales College and Normal School,

where he was received with hearty cheers The largest room in the Colley building /was densely crowded by the echolars wn ‘thowe who accompanied His Excellency.

welcome to the distinguished visitor on

behalf of his colleagues and himself ; and

one of the pupils read the following «l-

dress :—

‘To His Exceliency the Right Honorable Sir Frederick Stanley, Baron Stanley of Preston, in the County of Lancashi-e, in the Peerage of the United Kingdom, Kuight Grand

Zath, Governor-General of Canada. May Iv Piuease Your ExceLLency— We, the students of this College, named

tious as others in the Dominion of Conada, it has been the means of benefitting the youth of this Province, as is shown by the honors that not a few of those who have graduated from its classic walls have won in Canadian and other universities.

We thank Your Excellency for the honor of this visit, and for your kind remembrance of our institution every year in the medals

ber. This is and will be an eventful day to us, as

houvred us with a visit; and we cannot allow this opportunity to pass without expressing that sincere spirit of loyalty that has ever characterized the Prince of Wales College.. Our hope is that Your Fxcellency and the Lady Stanley of Prestop, who evince such an interest in education, may cherish a pleasant recollection of us and our fair Island Home. In behalf of the College, Lovutse LAIRD, . FAIRLIE DURANT, Epwin P. Rostss, P. J. TRAINER, (JEORGE 8S. INMAN, Joun S. MARTIN, Miss Ethel Scott then presented a beau- tiful bouquet of flowers for Lady Stanley, His Excellency thanked the students and replied to the address ina happy speech, after which the Professors were presented. Then the sehool sang ‘*Gaod save the Queen, ” and ** Good bye Stanley. ” Proceeding to Upper Prince Street School the evidences of feminine taste and ingen- uity were at once apparent. A beautiful and fragrant arch of welcome spauned the gateway, and the upper hall in which the children were congregated was decorate with paintings and flowers, leaves and fruits, pruduclng a most pleasing effect. On entering, His Excellency was welcomed by the school and the following-—c: mposed for the occasion by Miss Gregor—was beautifully sung : WELCOME TO LORD AND LADY STANLEY. A greeting we would bring thee, With loyal heart and hand ; True welcome would we sing thee, The ruler of our land. U'er this, our broad Dominion, We own thy gentle sway ; To this, our little Island, We welcome thee to day.

CuHorvws.

Then a welcome we will give thee, A loyal welcome bring :

With happy hearts we gree’ thee, As joyously we sing.

Thou comest in the Autumn, The Summer’s tale is told, The forest leaves are turning To brown and red and gold ; With sheaf and fruit and flower, With leaves of Avtumn sere, To thee and to thy lady We give a welcome here.

The following address was then preseut- vd to His Excellency, accompanied by a handsome boquet tor Lady Stanley :

To His Excellency the Right Honorable

' More than one of Your Excellency’s pre- ‘decessors in the Government of Canada | ‘have visited this, the infant member of the | 'yreat Canadian Confederation, but Your ‘Excellency has been the tirst to bestow jupon this institution the distinguished honor of the vice-regal presence in our midst. Greatly, then, do we rejoice, not only at the occasion presented to us of testifying our loyalty to our Canadian home, and to the great nae of which it forms a portion, but especially because in you who now hold the high office and dis- charge the onerous duties of Canadian Viceroy we behold one who is not alone an ideal constitutional ruler, but represents to the height the youthful but vigorous Can- adian nationality.

Your Excellency’s administration »f public affairs has not only been without reproach, but has evinced so enlightened and states- man-like a conception of the responsibility=of your high office, that your brief occupancy of the viceregal chair has already won for you the esteem of your Canadian subjects, and an abiding place in Canadian hearts.

Your public utterances have been character- ized by wisdom and judgment, have tended towards unifying the divers races of our land, and greatly assisted in developing a sentiment of Canadian nationality, pure as her limpid streams, broad as her extensive territory, deep as her mighty waters, and, let us hope, enduring as her everlasting snow-clad hills. Your presence here to-day is another proof of the active interest you have ever taken in education, and your solicitude that the youth of the Dominion shall acquire such a knowledge of the past of their country as will enable them to take an intelligent view of its present, and an ‘intellectual, training that will fit them for their duties as citizens.

Again thanking your Excellency for your kind visit, we beg to offer you this feeble ex- pression of the emotions of our hearts, prayin that Providence, who has hitherto blesse your sojourn in Canada, may guide your future path.

Signed on behalf of the professors and students of St. Dunstan’s College.

This address wassupplemented bya short- er address in French. To both His Excellency replied in pleasing and fitting terms, thanking the students and congratulating them upon the excellent educational advantages thye possess. He said that:he had no more agreeable duty to perform as ‘Governor- General than that of visiting the schools and lending what encouragement he could to the rising hope of Canada. He exhorted the students to pursue their studies earn- estly and to enter zealously into their out- | door sports, quoting the old Latin proverb,

Lord Stanley of Preston, Governor-Gen- eral of the Dominion of Canada.

May ir Piuzase Your Excetiency :

Wethepupils of UpperPrince Street Public School, iu the City of Charlottetown, greet Your Excellency with a cordial and loyal welcome, as the representative of our be- loved and gracious ak We duly appreciate the great honor you

have so kindly conferred on us and our school by your presence. This day will al- ways beared letter one in our remem- branve. We hope that you will be favor- ably impressed with the educational ad- vantages we enjoy in this city. Notwith- standing the lateness of the season we hope that Your Excellency and Lady Stanley will enjoy your visit to the Garden Province of the Gulf of St. Lawrence. Signed on behalf of the School.

To Hia Excellency Lord Stanley, Governor- General of Canada.

! May rr Pease Your Excevency :

It is with emotions of joy and gratitude | that we welcome you within the humble walls of St. Joseph’s School. Such an honor far exceeded ourmostsanguine expectations: only yesterday, when all were hurrying off to witness the happy arrival of Your Ex- cellencies, that we were led to think such a condescension possible.

We fully understand your exalted pos- ition in the Dominion, and how much the prosperity of this young and progressing country depends upon a wise and prudent head. Not only as such have |we been taught to regard you, i but also noble and good, and the guid- | ing star beneath which peace and happiness

exist, therefure, you have our warmest af- |

| fection.

The remembrance of this visit will be a lifelong pleasure for which we offer our gratitude to Your Excellency and the happy lady by your side, who so worthily shares your fame and your joys,

Accept, then, our ardent wishes for your happiness, and the assurance of our most profound respect.

Queen Square School for boys was also disappointed by a message similar to that which had been conveyed to St. Joseph’s Convent.

West Keut Street School was the last visited by His Excellency. ‘The hall of this school, too, was appropriately decor- ated with pictures of the Queen and several of the statesmen of Great Britain, besides evergreens and flowers, etc. Master John Lewis read the following address in behalf of the school, and a beautiful boquet was ; presented for Lady Stanley :—

May ir PLease Your EXce.iency :

On behalf of the teachers and pupils of West Kent Street School, we welcome you, the representative of our beloved Queen, and your estimable Lady, to our Island Home.

We fully appreciate the great honor Your Excellency has conferred upon us, and desire to state that we have noticed with pride that in every city honored by your presence you have visited its educational institutions and manifested deep interest in their work.

We siacerely hope that the recollections of this day may long linger in your memory; and we assure you that your brief visit to the schools of this city has given us pleasure as deep as it was unexpected.

To Your Excellency and Lady Stanley | Wwe tender our deep respect, and trust that ‘during your stay amoung us you may be favored with glorious autumn weather, and health to enjoy it.
