BLACK PILOT WINS THE FREE-FOR-ALL. The greatest excitement of the meeting, at Kentville,on the Ist inst., was the *free-for-all” trotting. Three horses ap- peared as starters—Messenger Boy, owned by J. W. Buckley, and driven by Bliss McLeod; Black Pilot, owned by the most modest man on the track, G.A. Dockendorff, of Charlottetown, and driven by A. L. Slipp; and Helena, owned and driven by W. F. Bowen, of St. Jchn. Mes- senger Boy was hardly considered in the race by horsemen, but he was on hand for a start for some purpose or other. The race was between Black Pilot and Helena, the latter having lately beaten the former at Ambherst in three straight heats. It was then concluded the horse was not in condition, but on the Ist both horses came up in splendid condition, and all felt there would be an exciting brush between the two. The ‘‘send off” in every heat was good, except for Messenger Boy, whose object evidently was not to score, but the judges knew their business, and if he got left at the word in any heat it was his driver’s fault. The race in every heat was Black Pilot first, Helena second, and Messenger Boy third. Time 2.34 1-5, 2.34, and 2.34. Pilot trotted a perfect raco throughout, and though in the third heat he was cruelly jockeyed by Messenger Boy, and made trot a much greater distancsa than his formidable rival, Helena, with magnificent spurte of speed, being splendidly handled by Slipp, he fairly out-trotted Helena and easily shook off her contemptible running mate. The judges were most severe in their ex- pression of opinion in regard to Messenger Boy’s action, but they gave him third money, though he could have been distanc- ed in the first heat, on account of the dis- tance he had come and the expense his owner had been to in bringing him to the meeting. ‘The judges were loudly cheered for the impartial way they performed their dcties, and left the impression that fair play for honest work would always be meted out on the Kentville Driving Park. -_—————— Cape Tormentine and Shediac. An enthusiastic and large meeting was held on Tuesday night last, in Tatt’s Hall, Shediac, to discuss the desirability of build- ing a railroad from Shediac to Cape Tor- mentine. A number of speakers from all along the route took part in the discussion. It was shown that by the proposed route the distance from Cape Tormentine to Moncton would be twenty miles or more shorter than via Halifax, and that the road would furnish a means of exporting a large quantity of produce that could not now be shipped ata profit. It was resolved that the building of the road is highly desirable, and that an act of incorporation for a com- pany should be secured. Twelve or fifteen thousand dollars of stock was taken up at the meeting, and a strong feeling prevailed that the road should be built without delay. i Montreal’s Tercentenary. The 12th of October will be the 350th an- niversary of Jacques Cartier’s arrival at Montreal. Cartier’s “Relation” says that he reached the bowrgade of Hochelaga on the 2ad October, 1535. But as the year 1582 was shortened by ten days, in conse- quence of the reform of the calendar under Pope Gregory XIIL ,it follows that the cor- rect date of Cartier’s arrival at Montreal was on the 12th October. ae - Castor1a—For Children at Apothecaries, Hall, DesBrisry’s Corner. 5 ii a a ai i a a CURRENT NOTES. ee The Servian army is being massed in readiness for active service.

FIFTY-FOUR THOUSAND FEET RESERVED FOR CANADA. FIRST ROYAL EXHIBITION COM- MISSION SINCE 1862. He COLONIAL AND INDIAN EXHIBITION to be held in LONDON, England, commenc- ing MAY Ist, 1886, is intended to be on a scale of great magnitude, having for object to mark an epoch in the relations of all the parts of the British Empire with each other. In order to give becoming significance to the event, a Royal Commission is issued for the hoid- ing of this Exhibition for the first time since 1862 ; and His Royal Highness the Prince of Wales has been appointed President by Her Majesty. The very large space of 54,000 square feet has been alloted to the Dominion of Canada by com- mand of the President, His Royal Highness. This Exhibition is to be purely Colonial and Indian, and no competition from the United Kingdom or from foreign nations will be per- mitted, the object being to exhibit to the world at large what the Colonies can do. The grandest op; pay ever offered to Can- ada is thus afforded to show the distinguished place she occupies, by the progress she has made in Agriculture, in Horticulture, in the Industrial and Fine Arts,in the Manufaciuring Industries, in the Newest Improvements in Manufacturing Machinery, and Implements, in Public Works by Models and Designs; also in an adequate — ww 4 of her vast resources in the Fisheries, and in Forest and Mineral wealth, and aJso in Shipping.
