best talent there was secured to pre- pare an address of welcome. The ov odd = years that intervened be

tween Governors s’atterson and Ready's administrations may be characterized as the dark ages of Island history, although considerable progress had been made io clearing the land and some schools and churches had been established. ‘The agriculture of the settlers, beyond the limits of the town and Royaity of Char- lottetown, was in the rudest state; im- plements of labor were of the most pri- mitive construction, and the condition of the people in regard to food and clothing was, for the most part, destitute of comfort. Ship-building was carried on to a considerable extent at the out- ports, and the exports, besides some emall cargoes of native produce and live stock sent to the mainland, consisted chiefly of ships, pine, timber, and deals. The imports always included a generous

other articles of British manufacture. The roads from one settlement to another were mere bridle tracks throngh the woods, and the bridges that spanned even the largest brooks were construct- ed on the corduroy principle.

Where a school was establisbed, the master boarded around among the set- tlers. The school-house was a log hut, frequently warmed in winter by a fire of logs built in the chimney at one end. The seats were rough slabs from the nearest saw pit, with auger holes bored throvgh the ends and stakes inserted to

the floor. The course of instruction seldom extended beyond the three R’s, and books, paper, slates and pen- cils were hard to procure. It was long before the era of steel pens, and it was part of the master’s daily task to point the nebs of the “grey goose quills’ aud adapt them to the various stages in writing to which the pupils had attained, from straight lines, pot looks and hangers, to half text and swall hand. The tailor and shoemaker went round like the school:naster and fashionea the shoes and garments cf the household. There were few books and no newspapers in the colony, and all the public documents had to be written and engrossed word for word, a'd letter by letter with the qui. ‘There were no threshing mills, tut here and there a plough with a wooden mouldboard which the owner frequently lent toa neighbor who had none. The farmer who had a cart with a wooden axle was considered well advanced. assert that cf light wheeled carriages not more than two or three gigs were to found in all King’s County at the time under review. Some saddles were imported from England and when busi- ness or professional men had occasiou to go a distance from home they rode on horseback.

Wild vague theories were promulgated among the settlers by a class of men named escheators. They went about atelection times and might be heard haranguing the people from stumps, barrei heads and hustings about free land, the forfeiture of the original grants, the fishery reserves, the tyranny of landlords and the delays of settle- ment. They counselled the non-pay- ment of rent, diverted the minds of the settlers from their lawful industrial pur- suits,and did untold mischief in various ways. Hugh Brodie,a schoolmarter at Lower Montague, who came to the }s- land from Nova Scotia, drank hard and committed suicide by hanging himself to one of the branches ot a beech tree on the schoo grounds, had a turn for poetrv. He favored the popular ery for Escheat and wrote a piece in dialogue verses, in which he assumed the doctrine of transmigra ion to be true and repre- sented the souls of the non resident proprietors and their agents here as be- ing condemed after their death to an’ mate the bodies of the bears, the foxes and owls of the forest till the tinal jucigment, as a punishment for their de lay in settling the wilderness lands of the Island.

The immigrant mothers of the Colony brought their spinning wheels and check reels from the old country, whereon they spun their flax and woollen yarn by the light of a blazing pine torch or smoky fish oil lamp,before the blazing fice that roar- ed up the throat of the cat and clay ciuim- ney, while the men were employed with ‘brog and hammer’ in mending the shoes

found in the person of the new gover- nor, who, while he placed himself in touch wth the common industrial pur- suits of the people, ruled the execulive adininistration with afirm hand. He was not long at his post till he suaimon- ed anew tiouse which met early in

1825, with John Stewirt as speaker and

Chas Worrel as president of the council. ‘hey passed several! acts in the interest

of the colony, and in October of the same year another session was held. Toward the close of the year the gover- | nor went to England on private busi- | ness, and while there he purchased the | horse Roncesvalles and the mare Rou- | lette, bot therough-bred and of the | best biood in Eng'and at very great ex- | pense to himself, in order to improve | the breed of horses on the Isiand.

| In February 1827, several gentlemen | met at the Wellington Hotel for the purpose of forming en Agricultural So- cie ty.

When, having chosen William Johnston, | Esq, for the Chairman, they proceeded | to pass Resolutions embracing that ob- | ject. The design of the Society will be | coll-cted from the second Resolution | which is as tollows:—“Tnat the object | of this Society shall be, to ditfuse and } extend the knowledge and promote the | practice of the best and most approved |}modes of Agriculture. To encourage | the breed of horses, cattle, sheep, an: | swine, by importation of new stock, and ' by judicious crossing of the old. To promvoie the makingand the use of the most improved implements of husbaud- try. Jo encourage both the growth and importation of seed grain, of ail sorts of grass seed, and the seed of roots. To encourage the clearance of the forest land, and to promote a bet- ter mode of cultivating it than now prevails, to encourage the growth of wool and the carding and spinning it, and the fulling, dyeing,and dressing the cloth.”

The Society is to be governe+ by a President, Vice President, Treasurer, Secretary and aco umittee of five mem- bere; a Patron is to be ¢-o-en. A char ter of incorporation will be applied for, and a grant of money to aid the objects of the Society. The meeting broke up after agreeing to meet again on Tuesday the 2Uth of March to elect officers.

On the 2¢th March following, the Gov- | ernor, in his opening speech to the As-em- | bly, said: “ Being strongly imy res: ed with | the awivartage the Colony would derive

from the establishment of an Agricultural] Society, I feel desirous of reeommending itto your consideration.” He also re- f-rred to the benefits that would accrue from the establishment of an inland post, and to the fitness of some encouragement for the commencement of Georgetown and Princetown. During the session a violent quarrel broke out between the Council and Assembly in regard to the appropria- tien of supphes. The Assembly claimed the sole right to originate bills of aid and supply to His Majesty, and to direct, limit and oppoint in such bills the ends and purposes of such grants. The Council claimed an equal right of deliberating

| Separately on every measure for which

provision waa to be made, and that the several sums and services contained in al! money bills should be submitted for their approval ara receive their asscnt before they became law. The Council took ite stand on the instructions issued by the Crown in 1756 to Lord .Campbell, who was then Governor of Nova Scotia, for his direction in conducting the affairs of that province, and also on the royal instruc- tions addressed to Governor Patterson, dated 4th August, 1769, directing him to pay due attention to what had been found practicable and convenient in forming the Constitutions of Nova Scotia and Georgia, lately established.

These royal) instructions to the Govern- or of Nova Scotia expressly denied the Assembly the sole right of framing money bills, and refusing to Jet the Council alter or amend them, and declared that the Council should have the like power of framing those bills as the As- sembly. The Assembly, on the other hand, argued that from the commence- ment of the Legislature in 1773, it had adopted and followed the prac ice of tle British Parliament as its model, ana as- serted that it found no such article in the

Royal instructions either to Gen, Pater- son or Lord William Campbell, to whom he was referred for examples and preced- ents, as the one al'uled to by the Council. This was the most serious and bitter quar- re! that ever disturbed the harmony exist- ing between the two branches of the Leg- islature. Dr. Angus MeAulay, who repre- sented the Selkirk settlers from Beltast, made himself conspicuous in this memor- able debate. He maintained that as a con- quered province we had no constitution but the Royal instructions, and if we acted contrary to the mode practised in Nova Scotia and Georgia, we would be acting unconstituitonally, and charged the Attor- ney-General, who took the other side, with intentionally deceiving him and the House in a speech delivered in a former debate,—charging him also with having uced indecorous language re-pecting an- other branch of the Legisla:ure. The At- torney-General then moved the standing order of the day, that strangers be exclud- ed, and demanded an apology from the son of Asculapius. The Doctor was a High- lander; his blood was up. He jent a deaf car to the admon ton of the Speaker, and re fu-ed flatly to ap logize to the lanb of the law. His language on the occision was tfot considered parliam-ntary by his col- leagues in the House, ani th: honorable gentleman, on the warrant of the Speaker. was taken into the custoly of the Ser geant-at-arms. ‘To prevent adealtiock, an accommodation was arrived at, under which both parties yielded a portion of their claims, Three revenue — bill: were rejected by the cor neil which crippled the fimances off the year. They also rejected a b:ll providing for the expense of taking a census of the population, tor en couraging the Agricultural Society by a grant of £250, for the appropriation ot £60 for the opening of an important new road, and an appropriation of 10s per diem to the members of the House for their attendance during the session.

Although the grant in aid of the society was frustrated for the time being the men who had the movement in charge were not to be dissuaded from their purpose. A meeting was held at the Court House on the 26th of June, where rules and regula- tions for the government of the society were submitted and approved, and a list for membership opened on which 45 of the principal inhabitants of Charlottetown and its vicinity subscribed their names. In this list app ars the name of Rev. John McLennan, then Presbyterian Minister at

Belfast, the late Sir Robert Hodgson, Thomas Heath Hiaviland, father of the

late lamented Hon. T.H. Haviland who so long and ably represented this town, Hon. Joseph Pope, who died at Cn’town a few weeks ago atthe advanced age of 93 years. He was the last surving link in the chain of membership. The society was to embrace in its object the whole Island, and district societies were to be formed in comnection therewith, An ad- mission fee of ten shillings was requested trom each member on signing the roll,and an annual payment of 10 shillings there- A subscription list was opened un- der the auspices of the Society to pro- vide for the payment of premiums —to be awarded at an Ex- hibition of cattle, sheep, pg? and grain to be held at Charlottetown in the fall. On the 3uth Sept., 1827, this Exhi bition took place at Charlottetown. It was a very successful affair, all the most noted breeders in the Town, Royalty and surrounding settlements on both sides of the Hillsborough and West Rivers were in the lists as competitors. In sheep the com-

petition was very keen and some fine ~pecimens in Leicester, South Down Cheviot ani Dartmouth were on the

grounds. His Excellency the Attorney General and Mr. Braddock, Mr. Wright and Col. Stewart shared the bonors in this class, and although import-d stock was allowed to compete with those bred on the Island, the Islan’ breeders from im- ported stock were adjudged the prizes in competition with the imported. In_ pigs

Messrs. Hvde and Cole carried off the honors. Mr. Hyde’s weighed cg

cwt; Mr. Cole’s, 17 months old,¢¥arly 5 cwt.

There was a large show of other cattle —Devons, Alderneys and Glamorgans, whose merits wou'd scarcely interest any dairyman present to disclose. They are duly recorded in the chronicles of the Register new-paper, published at Char- lottetown six days after the show, by the late James Douglas Haszard. In the same chronicle is recorded the fact of a substan- tial farmers’ dinner at the Wellington,with Mr. Wright, the President of the society, and Mr. Haviland, Vice, in the chair—the Governor and the Chief Justice fron Nova Scotia were there, and efter the cloth was removed the King. the Duke of Clarence and the royal family were toasted from the chair; then came the Army and Navy His Excellency the Lieutenant-Governor, patron of the society, “many thanks to him for his handsome donation of a fine Alderney bull.” After the applause which fullowed this t ast, His Excellency rose, and having returned thanks said among otner things: He was perfectly covinerd the Island must mainly depend on its Agricultural resoar- ces and therefore it became a matter of in- terest to us all to promote its encourage-

ment to the utmost of our power. The President had been pleased to thank him for his donation of an Alierney Bull, If

the animal should improve the breed of

ntl

the country he would feel amply repsid, In what he had done hitherto in his im- stock and grain be had follow- ideas on the subject, but on all future occasions of the kind he would take the Society for his conusel. —

He then proposed as a@ toast, the Presi- dent, and prosperity to the Society, the Chiet Justice, and the Governors of Nova Scotia and New Brunswick. This brought the Chief Justice to his feet, who, at the close of his remarks, proposed Mr. Hurde’s, the Governor’s Secretary, “man.” thanks for his noble North Devon Bully’ Upon the Attorney General’s health being drunk, he gave the old English agricul- tural toast of “ Horn, corn, wool and yarn,” " After several other toasts and speeches had been hovored, this hi-toric agricul- tural jollification was brought toa close. The Society, however, had received ap impetus that sent its name and fame obroad through all the settlements. Dis- trict societies sprang up in other parts of the Island. The Government was shamed into a recognition of its claims and u-eful- ness, and funds «ere placed at its disposa) to help to carry out the laudable pur- poses for which it was instituted, It was far reaching and long continued iu its beneticient operations. It encouraged improved stock by annual fairs and exhi- bitions; imported seed and agricultural implements and continued active as an agency in the progressive development of Island agricn)ture down to a period within the memory of many of the farmers who attend our modern exhibitions. Among the many important measures that occu pied the attention of the people and Legis- lature during this Governor’s term there are four that stand conspicuous above the rest. They are:

portation of ed his own

Governor Ready’s term, from 1824 to 1832, was the interval that inter- vened between the preceding hazy,

nebulons, and sometimes turbulent, period of Island history and a new era wherein greater light, more compact order, agri- cultural development and social progress were the predominating features.

There was also at this period a si'ent agency at work that ran conterminous with, and very materially contributed to advance the legislature of the time and to awaken and reform the hitherto dor- mant intellect of the settlements. I allude 10 the publication of the Register, which was started by James Douglas Haszard, at Charlottetown, on Saturday morning, the 26th of July, 1823, the last year of Governor Smith’s administration. This little paper was very ably and dis- creetly condneted by Mr. Haszard, who was King’s Printer for manv years, Mr. Haszard bad the instinct of a true jour- nalist, and adapted the reading matter to be found in his pages to the capacities and needs of his readers both in town and country. The service he rendered the Island during his lifetime as the steady friend of its infant agriculi:ure and every other movement undertaken for its social advancement, is deserving of the highest praise. He was the light bringer of a new era, and the father of P. E. Island jour- nalism, as Governor Ready was the Cin- cinnatus and foster fsther of its legislation.

The true fathers and mothers of the colony, however, were the pioneers who left their cherished homes in the old country and crossed the stormy ocean in the steerages of the slow sailing emigrant ships to a new dependency under the British flag, at that time but little known beyond the boundary of its own shores. These were the men at whose behest with undaunted courage in their breasts and fire and steel in their brawny hands the timid forest was compelled to beat a retreat from the sandy shore, and these were the women who through summer’s heat and winters cold cheered them on and lightened their labors by ministering to their comfort, and often sharing their toile. Thev it was who changed the briery hill slopes into smiling corn fields; who planted the apple seeds in the shadow of the maple leaves, and who transformed the reeking, stagnant swamp into a level pasture, where the factory patron finds the most nutritious herbage for his dairy herd.

THE MANITOBA HARVEST,

The Farmers of the Northwest Wi)} Have Vileaty of Money to Spend.

Wiyyivea, (Special) Oct. 7.—The pros- pects of a good year for the Manitoba farmeré are now assured, thanks to the abundant harvert. One of the cauces for the sickness prevalent last year will now be obviated, as the farmers will have more money to spare for the purchase of the ne- cessities of health. Que of the straws which shows which way the wind is blow- ing is the fact that druggists’ are ordering the well-known remedy, Dodd’s Kidney Pills, in unusually large quantities. The inhabitants of the province are well aware of the value of the medicine, and only the financial stringency has prevented its uni- versal use.

Proprietary Medicines and Pills that are Utterly Worthless.

When You Ask for Pains’s C-lery Jompound do not Allow Your Dealer ta Recommend Something Else.

Yee, there is a vast amount of double deception practised in the country. The double deception practised on a too-confil- ing people just means the making of worthless liquid n edicines and pills, and pu ting them into the stores of dealers who often recommend them, when Paine’s Celery Compound is asked for, because they pay larger and handsomer profits.

This work of falsely recommending and substituting is fraught with many evils. It encourages deception aud falsehood ; it brings the public to the position of slaves to the will uf the grasping dealer; it tends to prolong sufferings and agories when the sick are furced to buy what they do not a-k for; and lastly, the vile work of sub- stituting assists the spread and circulation of preparations that shou'd be prohibited by law,

This work of recommending poor an: trashy medicines when Pa:ue’s Celery Compound is asked for is meeting with its just reward in many places. The substi- tuting and deceptive dealers are being shunned, and the money for Paine’s Cel- ery Compound goes into the hands of up- right tnd hone-t biziness men, contented with moderate profi's, and who are anxious to gise men, women and children just what they ask for.

The great desire of tick and diseased people is a new life, which means health, strength and bolily vigor. This condition is surely and speedily realized when Paine’s Celery Compound is used. This fact is proved every day by the number of te-timonials received from cured people. The clergy, medical men, bankers, mer- chants and the everyday people testify in favor of Paine’s Celery Compound ; such letters cannot be shown Ly the proprietors of the medicines you are askeito avoid.
