Carnivals.

Tue disposition of our citizons to make picturesque displays of skill on skates, and their aptitudes in humorous association, are fast producing a very pronounced — for Carnival exhibitions. But (like habits that ‘‘pool” for enjoyment) they are liable, without constant vigilance, and ample preparation, to miss their mark. Last Friday's Carnival at the Ice Rink was a decided success, as to the costumes and skating, bat why there were sucl long in- tervals in the musical department, or why it waa so deficient of light, or why so many “having eyes, could not see” from the gal- lery, or why in the direction of “golds in the ’ed,” the ice (reeking with aqueous dis- solution) was not mopped up from the ‘eels, are questions, prominent as they are, that will not be taken just now, The great Carnival idea (as it might be repre- sented) rests on a grand foundation, as a winter institution, and its glories include a broader historical interest than its shadows and misadventures. It unveils the things that have been, long dead and almost for- gotten, by a living revival. It paints a chaos of illuminated characters on a single page, that dissolves with thee vening. It furnishes object lessons of heroes and heroines, before only familiar from a print. In a word, it performs miracles of change, which individually means, ‘‘ I am someone else and not myself at all,” and according to Carnival interpretation, I have bid my very * flesh farewell, for that is the mean- ing, as see in note—at least the dictionary meaning. But there is another presumed origin wnich gues back to at least Ovid's time, about fifty years B. C.

The Italian carnival which we appropri- ate and adapt to our modern ways t& a festival in Italy and other Catholic countries at shrovetide, or beginning of Lent, but it is a question whether the per- formance was nota pagan rite half a cen- tury before the Christiaan era. There was then a goddes named Carna, who was sup- posed to preside over the vitalities of mau- kind.

Ovid says of her :

“Helernus’ grove near to the Tiber lies,

W here still the pricsts repair to sacrifice ;

From henee a nymph, (whose name was Carna) sprung

Whom many, unsuccessful, courted long 3}

To range the spacious flelds, and killt

With darts and mangling spears, was ali her pare: She had no quivers, yet so bright she seemed, She was by many Phoebus’ sister deemed, There seems to be, in this translation from Ovid, much that links it with carnival practices, and perhaps the carnival is a sur- vival of the ceremonies which attended the worship of the roving goddess Carma. An early poet of this century, named Whistle- craft, has some verses on this subject, one of which is as follows ;— ‘** All sorts of people there had come together,¢ In varied character and motley dresset ; The fool with fox’s tail and peacock’s feather, Ugrims and penitents, and grave bur Ee The country people with their coats of leather, Vintners aud victualiers with cans and messes ; Grooms, archers, varlets, falconers and yeomen, Damsels and waiting maids and other women. Thus we see that our carnivals are no new thing, but older than the era we live in, and jast as our Pagan forefathers gave carnival homage to their deified patroness Carna, and were happy under her fostering care, 8o we may don our character-costumes and fly round on skates, doing happy hom- age to loveliness and beanty in the varied liveries of the court of Imperial Kina Fost. Nore.—Carni-Vale (Italian) means ‘* Flesh, Farewell!’ the festival time in Italy and other Catholic countries at Shrovetide, or beginning of Lont, being known by that designation.

Henry vs. Laird.

The Patriot of Friday’s date contains a long account of the points in dispute in this case. Whether or not the defendant's evidence was as strong and the plaintiff's as weak as the Patriot would lead its readers to believe, we are not in a position to say. We imagine, however, that the version of the suit, as given by our contemporary, will be taken with a large grain of allow- ance. We assume that, in the first in- stance, the plain iff ‘proved a case, sufficient, if uncontradicted, to warrant a verdict being found against the defendant, otherwise the learned Chief Justice would have nonsuited the plaintiff. But the fact that the defendant’s counsel did not even ask \he conrt for a nonsnit, clearly shows that Mr. Davies and Mr. Peters at least theught there was evidence of negligence against the défendent. The subsequent finding of the jury for the defendant of course shows that they were satisfied with the defendant’s defence. According to the Patriot, the defendant ‘‘rested his whole case before the jury in a clear, plain denial of any neglect on bis part, or on the part of the crew.” This is not’ true, for the defendant, instead of being as the Patriet would like the public to believe, the cham | pion of vessel owners on the north side, | placed a defences on the record of the court, | which is a direct blow at every broakwater jand harbor on Prince Eiward Island. | Now, what was this defence that Mr. Davies, 23 Mr. Laird’s attorney, put on the ‘files of the Supreme Court? In order that thera may be no doubt on this point we | publish the plea in full, as follows :—

“And for @ third plea the defendant says that | thesaid breakwater wasa@ structure wrongfully | built by the plaintiffs into the ‘navigable waters | at the entrance or mouth of the Harbor at Rijs: | tico, in said Island, and that while the defendant was lawfully sailing nis said vessel in such navi- |gable waters, and without any negligence or }fault of the defendant, the said vessel, by the iviolence of the winds and waves, became | stranded on the beach near the said breakwater, j at or near the entrance of the said harbor, and by ; the violence of the winds and waves was driven against such breakwater, and that the alleged | trespass was caused by such improper conduct of | the plaintiff in illegally constructing such break- , Water in such navigable waters, and. not other- wise.”

The Patriot should, when it referred ta the case at all, have published the full facts. At present, however, it is out of place to discuss it at all. The case, we understand, it not yet settled and it may come before | another jury, and it is nothing but fair to

‘both sides that no prejudice should be

raised one way or the other—hence the press should refrain from publishing one- sided comments,

Three Rivers Dairyman’s Associ- ation.

The annual meeting of the Three Rivers Dairyman's Association was held on Febru- 10th inst., at New Perth School use. The meeting was organized by the President, John Hamilton, Esq., who called the attention of members present to the fact that his term of office had expir- ed, and that he did not wish to be re- elected, although prepared vw take an active in furthering the interests of tho society.

The Secretary, Mr. Wm. Kaneen, pre- sented a report of the doings of the associ- ation during the term that had eispsed, which showed that six meetings had been held, via. : four at New Perth and two at Oardigan. At these meetings, essays had been read by John Hamilton, Wm. Kaneen, O. Lane, Jas. D. Dewar, F. G. Bovyer and Geo. F. Owen. Several of these papers, that have been published in the newspapers of the Island, evinced careful preparation and provided a valuable addition to the literature of the Province.

Notwithstanding the fact, that leas in- terest has been taken in this society than might be expected from a community whose interests aud welfare are so closely connected with the improvement and de- velopment of our agricultural resources, sufficient encouragement has been received to authoriz3 its members in hoping that the

future will show marked improvement, not

only in the number of members on the roll, but in attendance at the meetings.

The thirty members on the roll of this Society include some of the most progres-

sivo and enterprising farmers and stock- raisers of this section of King’s County,and

future meetings will afford an excellent opportunity of discussing and considering many subjects of great importance to the agriculturists of this Island.

The financial condition of the Society ia satisfactory, the accounts showing that the sum of $1.65 remained on hand after pay- ing the expenses of the term just ended. The Secretary's report was well received by the members) and a vote of thanks was tendered Mr. Kaneen for the praiseworthy manner in which he had attended to the duties intrusted to him,

On motion, the follawing officers were elected for the ensuing term, viz. :—

President-—James D. Dowar, Esg., Bra- denell. Vice-President—Frederick G. Bovyer, Georgetown Royalty. Secretary —George F. Owen, Cardigan. Treasurer—Wm. Kaneen, New Perth. Executive Committee—Alex. Hamilton, New Perth; D, Robertson, Brudenell; Juno. A. Dewar, New Perth; J. G. Scrimgeour, Cardigan; Georgo McDonald, New Porth. The next meeting will be held on Mon- day, 22nd February, inst., at New Perth School House. Charles Palmer, Eesq., of Charlottetown, has kindly offered to deliver a lecture on ** Farming in Prince Edward Island” at this meeting, and farmers and their fami- lies are cordially invited to attend.
