Considering that this Exhibition is so liberally supplied by the Dominion, 1 had expected that the prizes would be more than usually liberal, but even after the late revision, the amount given in prizes is not more than one-half of that given at other Dominion Exhibitions.

of individual animals. They weuld be sure to divide according to their predilections in favor of any particular breed. It is well known that this Island excels in horses, and a prize list which shuts out every chance of fair competition in horses, will destroy all interest on the part of the people of this Province in the St. John | Exhibition.
I am sorry the editor of the Patriot does not stand by our Stock Raisers, instead of supporting the managers of the Exhibition in blunders which, otherwise, they might rectify. One thing is certain, the exhibit- ors of this Island will not patronize an ex- hibition, the prize list of which gives them no hope of fair play.
An Exurpiror.
A Protest.
Sirn,—Mr. Laird appears determined that the people of this Island shall take part in the St. John Exhibition no matter how un- fair to them the Prize list may be. Mr. Laird knows little about the trouble aud ex- pense to exhibitors, of preparing and bring- ing forward to St. John an exhibit of live stock from Prince Edword Island, and fie Hits still less of the injury end dis-| satisfaction stiterte arise from a bad classifi- cation of breeds: If the.St. John Com- tiissioners persist in their error of classifi- cation, eto, the Patriot-is to blame, for it it would seem, that it is believed in St. John, that that paper represents the opinions of our Exhibitors. people will find ont their mistake when it! is too late.
I am yours, ONE INTERESTED.

Colville School.
Sir,—A public examination of Colville School, Section No. 38, took place on Mon- day, the 18th inst. There were fifty chil- dren in attendance.
The Revs. J. G. Cameron and J. G. Colter and several ladies and gentlemen were present. The examination in- chief was conducted by the teacher, Mr. L. Bre- haut, ably assisted by James Morrow, Esq. The several classes gave evidence of the thoroughness of the teacher’s work, each pupil answering with such readiness and confidence as is seldom met with in an elementary school.
The Rev. Mr. Cameron complimented both teacher and taught, and the public generally, upon the very great progress made since his last visit. He observed that he had attended nearly every exami- nation since his residence here, aod upon no former occasion was he better pleased than he felt at this time.
It was certainly gratifying to find so many ladies taking an interest in the Schocl, and as they have thus identified themselves with the work, I would suggest that they form themselves into a committee and devise means for the forming of a Library for the School, or for providing prizes for distribution to the best scholars on the next examination day.

Tonkin Another Afghanistan.
We remarked the other day that France would find her Afghanistan in Tonkin. It would seem that she has already found her Cavagnari in Riviere. The tragic fate that has overtaken the gallant and adventurous officer in command of the French garrison at Hanoi has naturally provoked the French to a more vigorous prosecution of the cam- paign which he began. Capt. Riviere ap- pears to have fallen a victim to the disdain in which he held his foes. The Republic which is about to avenge his death will be exceptionally lucky if the same error does not lead toa much greater disaster. There is a strange fatality accompanying all these campaigns against semi-civilized peo- ple. Ifthe invasion meets with no resist- ance the feeling in favour of a cheap and easy conquest is irresistible. If, on the other hand, the invaders meet with a smart reverse, the outcry in favor of wiping off the disgrace carries all before it. Whether European Powers win or lose a battle it tends equally to commit them to a further advance. This affair in Tonkin is no ex- ;ception to the rule. Opposition to the ex- -pedition collapsed in Paris on the news of 'Riviere’s death, and all hope of averting a ‘war between France and China seems to

The St. John) ‘*Go about your business,”
The Keewatin Region.
Very much has been written lately con- cerning the gold mines of Keewatin. There seems good reason for the belief that they are valuable. A Nevada miner of experi- ence was recently interviewed by a Wiuni- peg reporter, and expressed the following opmion: “‘I have speut the past fortnight quietly visiting the various mines in the Lake of the Woods region, and orly got in at four o'clock in the morning. They are good mines—very fine. And when they are worked properly they will be splendid paying properties. The Keewatin, the Argyle, the Winnipeg Consolidated, and the Pine Portaye—I saw them all—are all really good mines. At Pine Portage they have a ten stamp mill at work, where they ught to have a fifty stamp. It is an im- inense mine. The gold is there in good paying quantities. What you need is the must approved machinery for working it. Metallurgical works ought to be erected at Rat Portage, where miners can send their ore and have it pruperly treated. At the present time they have but the rudest ma- chinery, and while they can take out some gold, they leave far more behind. The ore irom which the gold bricks were taken would have yielded $80 to the ton if properly handled. If the Keewatin mines were in Nevada they would be worked on the most extensive scale, without a doubt. There would be millions of capital forthcoming. Capitalists are never shy about going into a certainty, you know ; and where your peo- ple are putting up five and ten stamp iills, we should put up mills with fifty and a hundred stamps. it is a wonder to me how your people saved as much metal as they did with the rude machinery that they were working with. I brought up many samples of ore, taken by my own hands from the various mines, and after thirty years’ experience on the Pacific coast and elsewhere, I can say that the Keewatin mineral region is as good as any I have ever seen. I came to examine and report on the mines for a syndicate of New York capitalists. Of course I don’t know what they will do, whether they will invest or not, but they want to be in possession of the true facts regarding this new discovery.’
_— ‘Mind Your Business.”
An anecdote is told of a clockmaker who, being employed to construct a new clock for the Temple, London, was desirous of a suitable motto to be placed under the clock. One day he applied to the benchers of the Temple for the motto, while they were at dinner, and one of them, annoyed at the unseasonable interruption, testily replied, Understaud- ing this to be the selected motto, the elock- maker inscribed it under the clock, where it still remains to admonish all to attend to business.
The Continental cent, usually known as the Franklin cent because its legend was proposed by him, gives the same advice in the words ;: ‘‘Mind your business.” This is frequently misquoted and corrupted to **Mind your own business,”’ which instead of acounsel to diligence is a rebuke to meddling. Franklin’s advice was an ad- movition to perform duty and to care for the concerns which make life snuecessful. It contains the very kernel of all business wisdom. A homely adage is that “It is better to drive your business than to let your business drive you,” better to be a master and manager of your business than to be its slave and victim. This is the essence of the Franklin cent motto, and, whether acknowledged in so many words or not, it is the actuating principle and the underlying cause of all business manage- ment and business success.

Scoundrels on Trial.
The trial was begun at Paris on the 12th inst., of the Marquis de Ruys ard seven- teen other persons who are charged with inanslaughter, fraud and infringement of the public companies and emigration laws. In the month of July, 1877, the Marquis de Ruys advertized land for sale in the island of Port Breton, in Oceanica, and in- augurated aecheme for emigration thereto. The Legitimist papers interested themselves in the enterprise and five million francs were subscribed to further it. Of this sum the Marquis de Ruys pocketed two million. It was stated that 700,000 hectares of land were sold, although the island only contains 7,000 hectares. The Marquis had maps of the Island published, im which were indi- cated imaginary houses, churches and roads. He -aiso instituted militia and gendarmerie forces and the necessary civil officers. Finally he despatched to the island four old sailing ships with a number of emigrants, the majority of whom perish- ed under the most miserable circumstances. On one vessel 30 emigrants died during the passaye, 250 more died from hunger and disease after reaching Port Breton, and five others were captured and eaten by the natives of the island. Only 100 of the unfortunate people succeeded in reaching a friendly country.

Asa Philadelphia street-car was moving up Ninth-street on Wednesday afternoon, a lady on the sidewalk noticed that one of the horses was in great pain from a galled shoulder. She stopped the car, and calling the driver’s attention to the sore spots asked him not to drive the unhappy beast any further. The man attempted to drive on, but the lady sprang in front of the horses and deelared that she would be run over before the car should proceed. Of course a crowd gathered, and in its wake
