The P. E. Island Pottery Co. make a most elaborate display of the wares manu- factured at their works. Nearly one hun- dred citferent specimens of flower pots, erocks, jars, etc., The workmanship is superior lt sur passes ony imported ware of the kind we have seen. An attractive feature o this exhibit is a handsome lawn vase, the flow ers in which were grown by W. R. aa ateon Esq. The management of the rey deserve great credit for their enterprise.

BREMNER BROS. ;

Messrs. Bremner Br 3. make a large ord play of fancy printing, ee at : eit establishment, Queen Sireet. ‘l ie style in which the work is peformed 1s excellent. While at the Exhibition 1m 5Ft. John we had the pleasure of comparing the work done by Messrs. Bremner Bros. with that

of the Jeading printers in New- Brunswick, i to find that the odds

and were gratifie were largely in Messrs. Bremner Bros. favor. Mrs. Benj. Bremner also exhibited some beautiful bead work, which is highly commended by the judges. CLOTH

PRINTING.

MILL VALLEY MILLS. The display of goods by Messrs. John- ston & McLean, is one uf the most attract- ive features of the Exhibition. It is in McLean, one of the enter- prising firm. Over sixty different patterns of twee is, ladies and gents ulster goods, flannels, blanketing and sheeting are re- presented all of which are manufactured from Island wool. The goods turned out by thes: mills are superioir im some res- pects t» any imported, and can be sold cheaper and more advantageously. Che suit of clothing manufactured by Mr. John McKenzie, of Summerside, from tweed made im these mills, and which took first prize at Montreal, is shown, and is a model of the tailoring art. Altogether, the ex hibit is verv creditable to Messrs. John- ston & McLean. TRYON

Reid Bres. pzake an excellent exhibit of the var ous descriptions of cloths manutac- tured at their mitls. Mr. James A. Reid, who has charge of the exhibit informs us that it i3 composed of over eighty different patterns of tweeds, blanketing and flannels, all of which are manufactured of merino, Island wool or camels hair. Among the exhibit is a fine piece of does cin made from Merino wool, several specimens of clothing made by John McKenzie, of Summerside, and J. J. McLeod, of Crapaud, the cloth of which was manufactured at Tryon Miils. The fir:n also displays splendid specimens of Union carpeting, collar cloth for the use ot saddies, and a horse rug—price $9,00— which is superior to any we have seen imported for three times the money.

PARKS & SONS, 8ST. JOHN.

Messrs Parks & Sons, show a fine variety of knitting cotton of every shade, bandles and be uns of warp, Carpel wares, _cotton yarns and many different styles of gingham shirting. The cotton is as nice and as well dyed as any imported from across the bor- der. The exhibit looks well; and is ren- dered attractive by the display of different medals won by the firm at the different ex-

hibiticns.

charge of Mr.

WOOL MILLS.

FINE ARTS.

The show of fine arts, in which Mrs. Irving, Miss Alley. Miss Dunn and Miss Swabcy are the chief exhibiters is large, and better than on previous years. The water-color wreck of the ‘‘Scillar, ’ by Mrs. Irving, is very good; while a crayou of Col. Dunn, by his daughter, attracts much at- tention. There were also a few very good oil paintings, but we were unable to dis- cover the names of the painters.

FANCY WORK.

The exhibit of Fancy work is not large, because, we believe, good prizes are not offered. A beautiful piece of lace work is shown by Miss Emma Hayden. Fretwork is larvely represented in very neat pat terns. Sofa cushions are also profusely shown, with one exception, in more sub- stantial than elegant styles.

WOOLLEN AND FLAX

The show of goods in this class was large and excellent in every particular. ‘The flax goods in towels, table cloths and sheets, was very fine, but not any better than on previous years. The carpeting on exhibi- tiou was as good as we have ever seen, while blankets and drugget, homespun, hosiery, mitts, shawls, were praiseworthy. ‘The Gen- tlemen’s drivingmitts, received the praise of all who saw them, as did the gentiemen’s plaids. The exhibit in this class on the whole was creditable to all concerned.

GOODS.

PRINTING AND BOOKBINDING.

; The many fine specimens of bookbind- ing by Mr. G. Herbert Haszard were well wort!\y of attention. The bookbinding was rich, neat and substantial.

The long, red mangols were equal te those in New Brunswick, weighing 44 pounds each. The show of tomatoes 18 very fine, especially the achmes, while the celery, cauliflowers, carrots, beets, and all other varieties, were magnifivent. We have spoken to several gentlemen trom the Provinces regarding the show made in this class, and they express great surprise at its excellence.

BUTTER & CHEESE.

The show of butter in tnbs and crocks was very large, but generally of a very poor quality, being new and insuiliciently The prints and rolls were of any- thing, better. The exhibit of cheese was not large but of good quality. Hr. Henry Hyde carrving off first prize with an ex cellent cheese of thirty pounds weight. In the tub butter, Mrs. George Sellars, Win- slow Road, took first prize; and in rolls, Mrs. Wm. Howard carried offa prize. The first was equal to the first prize butter in St. John.

GRAIN, The grain, which was a very large ex- hibit,is acknowledged to be of the most su- perior quality ever shown on the Island, with one exception—black oats. It is the opinion of some that black oats, although an excellent sample, was inferior to some shown at former Exhibitions. The white oats was magnificent, as was the wheat and barley. Onthe whole exhibit there was not one sample which could be cailed in- ferior. VOTATOES,

In potatoes the Province has reason to be proud ef the exhtbit. All varities are represented by splendid specimen tubers.

FLORICULTURE.

Floricniture is not the least attractive part of the exhibition. The show is un- usually large, and gocd and_ reflects

great credit on the tastes and care of the exhibitors. PRESERVES.

Mrs. Carman, of Rosebank, exhibits a fine collection of preserves, syrup, pickles, bread and butter, all made at the farm house Rose Bank. They arv of splendid flavor and if anything superior to the generality of the imported article. No prizes are offered for this class, but we think there should be, as this exhibit is well; worthy of a prize.

Mr. Carman exhibits three varieties of fodder plants ; viz., pearl millet, prickley comfrey and Italian rye grass ; also twelve varieties of potatoes, some of which are new from England, others from the United States and Canada. He also exhibits varieties of grain, consisting of white oats and in wheat of good variety, as well as turnips and sugar beets. Mr. Carman de- serves great credit for his enterprize.

Local and Other Items.

We learn that James Curtis, Esq., has abandoned the contest in Ward Two. SabScdiacndilabinond Prizk List of the Exhibition will appear to-morrow.

THERE was one great friend of Agriculture whose presence we missed at the Farmers’ Dinner. His name is William MeGill.

Tue public meeting in connection with the Educational Convention ot P. E. Island, will be held in the Hall of the Upper Prince Street School on Thursday, the l4th inst., at 8 o'clock,p. in.

We would call the attention of the proper authorities to the neglected state of the pump at Heartz’s corner. several complaints trom citizens, living in the vicinity, have come te us respecting it. We have no doubt but it will be attended to at once.

We understand that through the exertions of Mr. MacNab, the Superintendent of the P. i. 1, Railway, an order has been made by the Minister of Kailways, largely reducing the tariif on potatoes and limestone—the latter being rated at the same price as mussel mud, We have no doubt but that these reductions will be highly appreciated by a large number of our people.

Political excitement is intense in Indiana and it culminated on Saturday in serious affrays—one at Shelbyville aud another at Evansville.

At Shelbyville the Republicans and Greenbackers were both holding meetings, the former addressed by Gen. Ben Harrison and the latter by Dr. La Matpr. In the afternoon a number of fights took place in the saloons between Republicans and Demo- crats, and in one Sheriff McCarkle inter- fered and was leading away Edward Ken- nedy, a young man, the principal in one of the fights, a disturbance arose in which several shots were fired, one of which struck Sheriff MeCarkle in the breast, causing death on Sunday. Kennedy was accused of firing the shot, MeCarkle being a Democrat and Kennedy a Republican. A most bitter feeling is aroused, and parties are out seek-

‘iug Kennedy who will doubtless be lynched

if found. Sheriff Addison Lee was badly bruised in the afiray.

In Evansville, Edward Rouse, a river pilot, and Oscar Shorter, a colored man, had a shooting affray last night, in which both were wounded, Rouse in the breast] and Shorter in the head.
