THE CANADIAN SECTION.
Jommencing with the eastern approach to the central gallery, one finds first atten- tion properly paid to agriculture, the back- bone of Canadian progress. To this divi- sion the whole of the east transept is devoted. Vegetables, cereals, fruits, and woods from the isolated Anticosti, side by side with the remarkable products of the Canadian mainland, from Nova Scotia and New Brunswick to Ontario, the Northwest
land British Columbia, vie with one another
in friendiy zeal to show the agricultural and industrial advancement of their one country. And here some special features deserve attention. Many of the Indiana of Canada may be found as agricultural exhi- bitors under theiz own names—a striking and enceuraging instance of the progress of civilization among several of the tribes, Then, again, it will be observed by those who make search, that with other exhibit- ors of cereala, vegetables and fruit, are settlers who but a few years since left this, their native land, to try their fortune on Canadian soi). Noticeable among these are some of Lady Cathcart’s crofters, now successfully settled at Wapella, North-West Territories. Surely no more potent factor could be desiredin the pro- motion of desirable emigration. The fruit exhibits of the different Provinces will also prove a feature of no ordinary interest to the British, and indeed European visitors to the court. They consist of about 1,000 jars of fruit preserved in their natural con- dition in antiseptic fluids. Such large col-
| lections of grapes, pears, apples, peaches,
late-keeping winter apples io freah con- ditioa, as well as many other classes, must unquestionably prove of great practical value in demonstrating the suitability of the climates of Canada to the cul‘ivation of fruit of nearly all varieties, These pro- ducts of farm and orchard ali centre round @ highly attractive trophy of large but pro- portionate dimensions, built up with a variety of agricultural exhibits which, under able grouping, combine to give a striking effect.
Giancing down the central gallery—in which the manufactures and industries of Canada are exemplified—we finda band- some pavilion for the reception of Canadian orgaus, pianos, and general musical iustru- ments, faced on each side by well filled cases of textile fabrics. Exactly in the centre of the gallery is erected a trophy of the commercial woods of Britigh Columbia, especially from the famed Burrard Jalet, all highly polished and displayed to con- siderable effect. Following after this centre-piece come miscellaneous manufac- tures, and among them the furniture ex- hibits will claim special attention. The Antwerp collection was in its way one of the features of the Canadian Court, Still more so will this be the case at South Kensington, where the display is in every way far more representative. The canocs of Canada havo acquired a world-wide repu- tation, and nowhere is their growth to favourmore marked than on the Thames and among English oaramen. It is hoped that opportunity will arise for the erection of a canoe trophy. There can be no doubt that such a display would possess much of interest to many visitors,
NATURAL HISTORY, MINERALS, AND FISHERIES,
Passing on, the west transept is gained. Here will be found the collection of natural history specimens, which must prove to visitors one of the leading features of the Canadian display. The Canadian Geologi- eal and Natural History Sarvey has, in itself, enough to form a separate display, though supplementary to it are the Hud- son’s Bay, the Renfrew, and Hubbard col-
\lections, thus representing adequately the
whole game of the Dominion. The centre of this west transept is, correspondingly with the east transept, occupied by a com- manding trophy of game and game birds, and even those of the migratory class, arranged with no little tact and judgment. From this point the west gallery is reached. Here the mineral resources of Canada are set out in full array. So rapid has been the growth of the mining industries of the Dominion during the past decade, that the 649 specimens exhibited at Philapelphia have increased to 725 at South Kensington, contributions coming in large numbers and great variety from the mines of Nova Scotia, iNew Brunswick, Quebec, Ontario, the Northwest and British Columbia, and including many specimens of considerable value shown in the process of various dress ings from the simple ore. The practical re- suits likely to follow from this mineral ex- hibit are considerable. One may perhaps be not too sanguine in anticipating that so powerful a witness to Canada’s vast and tich mineral deposits will even do much to overcome the prejudice of English capi- talists against embarking in enterprise in this direction—a prejudice not altogether unnatural, when oue remembers the hands into which some Canadian mining ventures have fallen in some recent years. Inti- mate knowledge, such as the present exhibit will encourage, must, however, bring about a different state of things. In the west gallery the shafting provided will be used for the display of machinery in motion, always an interesting feature to visitors. Here the skilfully-designed agricultural and general products of the Birminghams of Eastern Canada _ will undoubtedly be the object of much curiosity to English mechanics, agriculta- rists, and manufacturers. Beyond the west gallery is the west arcade, in which Canada has been provided with some 2,000 feet for the display of the products of her fisheries The exhibit made in Lon.jon three years ago is here brought into requisition, with, ef course, large additions of stuffed and preserved specimens of fishes and marine invertebrata, as well as schooners, models of salmon and hatcheries, flshing tackle and all utensils for sea and lake fishing. The Natioval Fish Culture Association is taking charge of the ova until a fitting receptacle
March 1, 1886.
is ready for it. An interesting feature of this part of the Canadian display will be
the intended shipment of fish periodically, from Canadian waters, under the refrige. rator process, not for sale, but to demon- strate the practicability of direct shipments of the fish of Ontario, Manitoba, and British Columbia by direct Canadian rail to the Ailantic port, and thence to England.
LITERATURE AND ART.
It will thus be seen by the hasty glance through the Canadian courts, that every promineuce is properly given to the induse trial products and natural resources of Canada. The representation of the Do- mivion would, however, be incomplete without some attention to the advance made in literary and artistic manners. In the west gallery adjoining New Zealand, some 4,000 feet have been allotted to Canada for educational exhibits. Here will be found fully illustrated the educa- tional, literary, and artistic progress made by Canada in recent years. The collection is looked upon as far surpassing the one made at Philadelphia in 1876, and that, as Canadiana know, was the best edneational exhibit hitherto made by the Dominion, The provincial governments have taken the matter up themselves, so that the literature and native art of each Province is sure of full representation. Canadians have also no reason to be dissatisfied with their art exhibit, to which a space of 2,700 feet is devoted in the Albert Hall. It ie true that in this respect they are not fully re- presented, owing to the pressure upon the time of many of their prominent artists. Yet this deficiency is more than compen- sated for by the fact that the Queen has been pleased to lend several Canadian pictures from her private collection. These, together with a number contributed from Kensington Palace by H. R. H. the Princess Louise and Lord Lorne, must ecnsiderably enhance the artistic value of a sollection which, though small—numbering but some 130 pictures—must be conceded to reflect credit upon the art culture of so young @ country as the Dominion, And speaking of some of the educational and artistic features of the Canadian display, it is proper to note that at the first meeting of the Committee on Conference, held recent- ly, a sub-committee, on which Canada is appropriately represented, was appointed
to prepare a scheme of lectures and confer-
ences in connection with the Exhibition. It was then agreed that the papers read and the lectures delivered should be arranged under two heads: (a) Dealing generally with classes of products shown in the Ex- hibition, such as agricuitaral products, food products, timber supplies, textile fabrics, etc. (+) Dealing with individual Colonies. Invitations have since been sent to the Executive Commissioners for sugges- tions as to subjects The movement is one deserving of every encouragement, materially promoting, as it must do, the permanent benefit of the Exhibition
The Canadian Botanical’ and Horticul- tural Garden, to which 2,800 feet ia allot- ted, cannot but prove of interest to English horticulturists, representing, as it does, plants of the greatest economic interest, anch, for instance, as the many classes of timber that have made Canada famous the whole world over; piants used for drugs and other purposes; plants auksewn in Kagland, bat probably suited in every way to English growth ; and lastly, rare plants of scientific interest, collected from distant parts of the Dominion.
Another general centre of attraction will naturally be the Colonial Market and School for Cookery. Inthe Market, Canada has received an allotment of 750 feet, as well as 4,250 feet for the new buildings adjoin- ing the Market. Provision will be here made for the sale of Colonial meat, fish, gam», fruit and vegetables originally pre- served in refrigerators ; and it is expected that arrangements will be possible for Canada’s adequate participation, by the forwarding of supplies from the Dominion at regular intervals, The actual prepara- tion of these Colonial foods will be under- taken at one end of the building, under the active direction of the National Training School of Cookery, under whose manage- ment are placed the Colonial Dining Rooms, in which Coluaial and Indian food products will be brought to public notice. Every effort will be made, among other things, to demonstrate to all, and especially to the working classes, among whom per- haps the chief prejudice exists, the great value of tinned meats as a cheap and good food when properly prepared.
Among the permanent benefits to be de- rived from this Exhibition will, it is hoped, be a Colonial Museum in Londop. The movement was inaugurated, but fell through, some years agu, when the value of intimate general and commercial relations with the Colonies was not so generally acknowledged. The effort has been again taken up in influential quarters, and the opportunity is so obviously an unusually favorable one, that it will be strange indeed if it be allowed to pasa unheeded.
Such is abrief sketch of the features of Canada’s participation in the forthcoming Exhibition. Later on a more detailed ac- count will be possible of the many inter- esting characteristics of the different departments. Looking at them as they now stand, and at the Exhibition as a whole, one may with considerable confi- dence anticipate that they will afford an indication of the development and progress of the scattered parts of the Empire such as was never before been, and indeed can rarely be, afforded to any people.
