At the meeting of the Commissioners for managing King’s County Exhibition, 1888, held inthe Law Courts, Georgetown, on Saturday, 30th June, the following Com- missioners were present :—Hon. D. Gor.

Patrick Brothers, Lot 66, and George F. Owen, Cardigan.
On motion of James Clow, Esq., seconded by William Thompson, Esq., Hon. D. Gor- don was re-ciected Chairman.
George F. Owen, Cardigan, being re- appointed Secretary, submitted a report of the result of former exhibitions, and showed the progress that had been made during the past seven years, His state- ment showed that the Commissioners of King’s County Exhibition have, during the past seven years, only drawn some $71.54 from the Government over the amount of the annual grant, and out of that deficit have built a fence around the cattle show grounds at an expense of $70.
On motion, it was resolved that the King’s County Exhibition for 1888 be held in Georgetown on Thursday, the 27th September next.
The general regulations were amended by adopting the following :—
That all stallions over two years old pay an entrance fee of fifty cents each.
That imported carriage and cart stallions owned conjointly by persons in King’s and other Counties of this Island, be allowed to compete at this Exhibition.
That imported horses be not allowed to compete with Island-bred stock. | The prize list was amended by striking |out the money prizes for carriages and isleighs, and potato digger, to be tested Exhibition Day.
Prizes of $8 each were granted for best imported carriage stallion and best import- ed cart stallion, any age.
The prizes for yearling Shorthorn and Ayrshire bulls, without registered pedigree, were struck out, and also those for home- made bread.
The Commissioners and Judges for the several departments were then nominated, and a good selection was made for each district in the County.
The meeting then adjourned sine die.
GEORGE F. Owen, Secretary. (Other papers please copy. ) em a Albion School Examination.
The semi-annual examination of Albion School was held on Friday afternoon, 29th ult. It being the last examination that Mr. Lavers will hold, the children had the schoolroom tastefully decorated with spruce wreathing and flowers. The teacher’s desk was very prettily decorated with the flower of the season. The teacher read his semi- annual report, after which he, assisted by Miss Creed, examined the classes before a very large number of visitors, all of whom expressed entire satisfaction with the quick- ness of the children’s answers.
After the closing exercises cach pupil went forward to bid farewill to their teach- er. The scene was indeed touching. At the close, the Secretary of Trustees read the following
ADDRESS : F. C. Lavers, Esq. ,—
Dear Str,—We, the undersigned, on behalf of the inhabitants of Albion School District, learning that it is your intention to sever your connection with us, desire to place on record
vices as teavher in our school during the past six years.
The very marked advancement seen in all the classes of the school, and the tasteful man-
schoolroom and grounds have been put and kept, clearly show the diligence with which you have attended to your duties.
The interest that you have taken in the cause of temperance, as well as your charitable qualities—being ever ready to extend a help- ing hand in sickness or trouble—have always tended to raise you in our estimation.
It is with sincere regret that we learn of your resignation; but learning that it is your intention to engage in another and higher sphere of labor, allow us to extend to you our best wishes for your future welfare, success and happiness.

R. A. Thornton, Thomas Moore, Geo. O'Con- nor, D. Fraser, Geo. Young, Wm. Thomp- son, Richard Westaway, Esqs., and others:—
GENTLEMEN,—I thank you most heartily for your kind expressions of regard. When I consider that six years ago I came an entire stranger among you, I cannot but feel that it was my good fortune to cast my lot among a people whose treatment, ever since, has made it impossible for me now to leave without feelings of sincere regret.
Regarding your reference to the advance- ment of the school and the improvements on) the school lot I may say that whatever measure of success 1 may have attained has been largely due to the unanimity with which te several Boards of Trusteesfiave co-operated with me, together with the very harmonious | relation which has always existed between my | pupils and myself; and I shall long treasure
our deep appreciation of your valuable ser-|
ner in which, owing to your exertions, the;

These excellent mills are situated on the {northern arm cf the Brudenell River, about four miles from Cardigan sridge, and are conveniently located to the adjoining settle- ments of Ruseneath, Brudeneil, New Perth Baldwin’s Road, Pisquid Road and Union Road. They were originally built by Mr. | Edward Poole, Sr., many years ago, but have lately passed into the hands of Dugald Munn, Esq., who has expended {considerable time and money in making {them as perfect as possible. The grist mill has been fitted with French Burr Stones,
{mproved Eureka Smutter, lately improved Revolving Bolt, andother conveniencies for }manufacturing wheat, oats, barley, buck- phat and other grains into ‘the best quality of four and meal. A new oat kiln 'has been built on the most improved prin- | ciples, and customers patronizing this grist | mill all speak in the highest terms of the |satisfaction they receive. Mr. Artemas | Leard is the miller in charge. The saw mills sre fitted with one of Smallwood’s improved Rotary Mills, and the shingle mill makes good work. The reasonable prices charged by Mr. Munn insures him a great amount of work in both these mills, |The cloth mills are fitted up with the best machinery, the carding machine having been clothed last year with new cards. Mr. Munn’s specialty of dyeing wool for mix- fure at very low prices being highly appre- ciated by the farmers who patronize him, for in this way the cost of manufacturing home made cloth and drugget is greatly re-
duced. The large trade done by Mr. Munn causes quite a *“‘hum” at the Rose- neath Mills. A handsome and commodi-
ous new dwelling house has lately been built by Mr. Munn near the mill, and is an evidence that enterprize and industry are not without their reward even in Prince Edward Island.

The Manufacturers’ Life and Acci- dent Insurance.
Mr. J. B. Paton, general agent, intends spending the first week of July in Charlotte- town. The numerous parties applying for local agencies on the Island, and parties desir- ing either Life or Accident insurance on a liberal basis and easy terms, will do well to call on him at the Hotel Davies, or address him there.
These companies, both Life and Accident, have met with most unprecedented success everywhere, taking the lead of all others from Vancouver to Halifax.

In speaking of long credits, and of their arising in the first place from the offers of | English houses with large resources, a con- {temporary says: ‘* The system seoms to | have forced itself upon Canada under stress of competition.” We are glad to see this acknowledgement that excessive com- petition is not necessarily beneficial. Competition may bring cheapness, but even cheapness, when it ruins home in- dustries and when it reduces wages to the ‘* sweater’s ” rate, is far from being an un- mixed: benefit.

Apvice to Morugrs.— Mrs. Winslow's Soothing Syrup should always be used when children are cutting teeth. It relieves the little sufferer at once; it produces natural quiet sleep by relieving the child from pain; and the little cherub awakes as “bright aya button.” It is very pleasant to taste. It soothes the child, softens the gums, allays all pain, relieves wind, regulates the bowels, and ‘s the best known remedy for diarrhea, whether arising from teething or other causes. Twenty-five cents a bottle. Be sure and ask for Mrs. Winslow's Soothing Syrup, and take no other kind, [April 1 ‘88
