But, as a matter f fact. no such exhibitions of choice cattle, ine horses. machinery, agricultural imple- nents and manufactures are made anywhere n that country, and no exhibition regularly nade in any of the cities of the United States s quite equal in all respects to ours. Nor dre American exhibitions attended by such mul titudes year after year.”

fhe Prince County Exhibition.

Tue Prince County Exhibition opened at Summerside to-day. A special train having n board a large number of prominent itizens, among whom were His Honor Lieutenant Governor Macdonald, Mrs Macdonald and Secretary, His Worship Mayor Haviland, Ex-Sherriff Longworth, Hon. D. Laird, Hon. A. B. MeKenzie, John Ings, Esq., F. T. Newbery, Esq., A McNeill, Esq., A. Lord, Esq., Geo. R. Beer, Esq., John Kelly, Esq., Rev. W. R frame, Dr. Beer and others left the city at

9.15 this morning.

The Exhibition was deelared open by His Honor Lieutenant-Governor Macdonald at welve o'clock, when Sheriff Strong, on be half of the Commissioners, read the follow- ng address lo His Honor the H morahle Andrew A.

Vacdonald, Lieutenant Governor of the

Province of Prince EB lward Island,

May ir Piease Your Honor,—On behalf

my associate commissioners, 1 thank you for your ready acceptance of our invitation to Mficiate at the inauguration of this Exhibition, ind I now respectfuliy bid you welcome to Summerside,

\t assemblages, for the most part, as this is if representative agriculturists, it is both natural and proper that our thoughts dwell for the moment, at least, upon the quality and juantity of the harvests of the passing season, and in doing so, duty as well as a sense of vratitude, constrain us to express our heart- felt ackrwowledgment to the All-Wise and

lereiful Providence for the blessings bestuw i on this Province, in the ample measure of success that has crowned the labors and inxieties of the husbandman during the year.

While the apparent market values of the productions of the farm this year are not, probably, equal to those obtained sin some previous corresponding seasons, yet the practical returns may in some instances ex- eed them, when it is remembered that the money estimate of a given quantity will procure for the farmers’ family a larger supply of the necessaries of life than could be »btained under the circumstances in former years,

’ The Board of Commissioners aie most gratified to see that Your Honor continues to take a lively interest in our County exhibi- tions, and hope that the one now in view will be found to compare favorably with its predecessors.

I have the honor to request that you will now open the proc edings. On behalf of-the Com nissioners for manag- ing the Prince County Exhibition of Agrieultucal and Local Industries,

I have the honor to be, Sir, Your obedient. servant, (Signed) Ww. G. STRONG, Chairman,

In reply, His Honor, after thanking the Commussioners for their address, said he was pleased to meet the leading agricultur- ists of Prince County and to see such samples of the result of their labors. Re ferring to the excellent crops raised this year he said that at one period of its his- tory flour was one of the chief exports from the Province ; but for the last forty or fifty years we had been importers of — that article, at one time to the extent of 60,009 barrels a year, but since the establishment of closer trade relations with the Upper Provinces this was changed and we are now in a fair way of again becoming exporters of wheat and fluur, a change which repre- sented a gain of halfa million of dollars to the people of this Island. He referred to the extensive importations of improved stock for breeding purposes made during the past year, and alluding to the Arbor Society recommended the planting of trees about the farm buildings and Provincial school houses both for shelter and orna- ment, and concluded by thanking the Com- missioners and judges for the manner in which they had discharged the duties of their respective appointments.

Archibald McNeill, Esq., also spoke con- cerning the Provincial Exhibition to be held in this city next week.

Among those on the platform were no-

ticed Mr. Speaker Macdonald, Mayor Havilaud, ex-Governor Laird, Senator Montgomery, Hon. P. McNutt, Judge

Kelly and Mrs. Keliy, Richard Hunt, Esq., and Mrs. Hunt, W. T. Huat, Esq., Benja- min Bearisto, Esq., and Mrs. Bearisto, and others.

TOWN TOPICS.

What is being Talked About on the Streets and Elsewhere.

Since my last, two important announce- ments have been made. One is that the petition asking for the repeal oi the Scott | Act has been received at Ottawa, and the | writs are daily expected; the other) that the ‘‘ temperance people” have de- cided that in future they will’ not do any pulice work under the Scott Act. The, lirst anpouncement was not unexpected, the second was. The last means, if it means anything, that the so-called **tem- perance people’ are tired of trying to en- foree the Act, and are guing to leave it to the tender mereies of the authorities, whom they have, time and again, charged with being in sympathy with the liquor sellers, and therefore not the men to enforce the Act. There must certainly be something wrong in the State of Denmark.

+ *

The success which invariably attends our Island boys when they leave our shores is, I might say, almost phenomenal. No mat- ter what position in life they occupy, they are useful and honorable members of society. They are heard of in educational institutions, in journalistic and mercantile circles, as miners, farmers, etc., and, it is always pleasing to notice, are advancing rapidly. There are others, again (and, for the credit of our tair Island, they are few), who do. not attain that eminence abroad which they should and could attain were they so disposed. These kind of people were no use at home, and ably sustain their reputation abroad. They were a burden to their parents and relatives while here, and we an annoyance and disgrace to their fel- ww Islanders wherever they go. Such people are, however, not a criterion of the general run of Islanders—although, in some places and cases, they prejudice peo- ple against the Island—and should be| trowned down at every opportunity.

Speaking of Islanders and their success abruad reminds me of the fact that | ilthough we are lamentably barren of institutions for physical culture, some of | our people have also attained high standing in athletic sports. This fact was attestel a few days ago at the sports in Pictou and fruro, where veur boys had to compete with profess onals and *‘champions” from the other provinees of the Dominion and the United States. That as a result of the good work done at these sports they brought home several championships, seven gold or silver medals and a large amount of prize money, is greatly to their credit. In the United States they have also attained prominence “as pedestrians, runners, sparrers, bicylists, ete. All this in the face of the great diffitulties they have to contend against, is a strong indication of great natural ability.

¥.* Island horses and cattle are also some- what celebrated throughout the Dominion and the United States. At the different exhibitions held in the Dominion in recent years Island stock have carried. off a good share of prize money, in ‘the ma- jority of cases competing against the great- est odds. At the different sumnier and autumn trotting races our horses have also obtained good places—in many cases first — in competition with swift ones’ from the other cities of the Dominion and the United States. Nor must I, while on the subject, forget to mention the success which attend ed the Island exhibits at the Philadelphia Exhibition in 1876, and the Indian and Colonial Exhibition recently closed. Truly [slanders have no reason to be ashamed of themselves. The only thing they have failed to do is to enforce the Scott Act.

* * So much for Islanders and Island stock; now a word or two about the Island itself: That it is a beautiful spot goes without say- ing. Travellersfrom the other provinces of the Dominion, the United States, and che Vid Country, tell us so, and we ‘are forced to believe them. Islanders who go tbroad write to their people about the places they have seen, and in the great ma- jority of cases tell them that for real natural beauty ‘‘there’s no place like home.” All should do their utmost to as- sist nature in her work. The planting of trees and flowers, the painting of houses ind fences, and many other comparatively inexpensive methods of adornment are within the reach of all. Many of us have done good work in this respect, but much remains untouched. Let us put our shoulders to the wheel and assist in the noble work. Percy.

Horse Notes.

The great event at the Detroit driving park on Saturday last was the race between Clingstune aud Patron for a special purse of $3,000. Before the first heat, Patron sold favorite in the pools, $109 to 65. Patron was driven by the veteran George Miller, and Clingstone by William Saun-

| keepe s of Char ottetown

ders. Both horses were in the pink of condition, First heat Clingstone drew the - pole, and on the third attempt the horses | got the word with hardly an inch of differ- | ence between them. Clingstone got his | rival at his wheel at the quarter, but at the half they were even. Clingstone rounded the turn a neck ahead of Patron, and came | home three lengths ahead. Time by quar- | ters, 34, 1.08} 1.42, 2.17}.

Second heat—Clingstone got the better of Patron at the start, but Fuller went in to win, and had driven Patron two lengths ahead at the half mile. At the three-quar- ters Clingstone had closed up and come home almost a length. ahead. Time —35}, 1.083, 1.42}, 2.17%.

Third heat—Patron had the best of the start. Fuller took the pole befure the horses reached the first turn, and drew 4 couple of lengths ahead atthe half-pole. Saunders drew Clingstone up to Patron’s wheel rounding the stretch, but was unable to lead the black horse, and so they both jogged it. Time, 34%, 1.08}, 1.43}, 2.17}.

Fourth heat—Clingstone was about 12 lengths ahead - at the quarter, and Patron could not decrease the distance, and barely escaped the flag. Time, 35}, 1.10, 1.454, 2.194.

At the same place on Saturday Harry Wilkes attempted, fora purse of $1500, to beat his record of 2.134, but failed. Time, 2.17, 2.153.

The report that Jay-Eye-See (2.10) had recovered his old form appears to have been well grounded. He trotted a mile over a half-mile track at Lincoln, Neb.,
