THURSDAY AFTERNOON SESSION, Mr. Dennis, of Margate, gave a lesson in Geography to Miss McKimnon’s pupils. D. Gallant, Esq., of Rustico, addressed the Convention, taking for his subject the ‘Acadian Schools and the necessity of teaching the French language in them.” He maintained that being unacquainted bition, because ii explains the advantages | with the French deprived us of the meaus of, and the for, the changes which have recently been made, as well as the means by which they were brought about; aud is, therefore, worthy a care- ful perusal. Some comments, intended for this issue, are crowded out :-— To His Honor Lisvurenanr Havitane, &e., &c. May rr Pusase Your Honor,—The Com- missioners appeiated by your Honor in Coun- cil to conduc! the Provincial Exhibiton of the current year, have much pleasure in welcem- ing your Honor to this important industrial festival. They have devoted their best energies to eusure the success of this Exhibition, and have reasons GOVERNOR reason to expect that it will prove equal to any of its predecessors in the aumber and qality of the exhibits fer which they kave been able to offer prizes. They have carried inte effect most of the sugaestions which the experience of former Boards of Commissioners had recommended for example, it had been customary in former years te receive goods in- tended for competition up to a _ late hour in the forencon of Exhibition day, thus leaving scant time for the performanee of ' the judge’s duty, and for the effective display of the eompeting articles in this hall To remedy this long felt and often complained ef inconvenience, the Commissioners deem it necessary to adopt their 9th rule, requiring competitors to bring on their goods en the afternoon of the day preceding the opening; tliis condition, obvionaly required to secure satisfactery awards of prizes, and in principle universally adopted elsewhere, is now tried im this Province for the first time. The Com- missioners attach much importance to its suc cess, as it is manifestly impossible with oat it te conduct a Proviacial Exhibi- tion, except on a scale sosmall and insignifi- eant as to disappeint public expectation, and atiord a v-ry inadequate representation of the wealth and resources of our Province. The Commissioners have madearrangements for keeping this Exhibition open twe days, thus enabling more visitors to attend, and affordicrg more time and opportunity for that thorough and intelligent inspection which may be expected te result in keener competition in succeeding years. They have also mado arrangements in con- nection with the live stock department, which enable them ts previde comfortable shelter, with food at cost price for the ani- mals sens from all parts of the Island. But this great improvement on the Exhibitions of fermer years, could not have been accom plished, but for the offer of one of the fields ef Governmentfarm, which your Honor'sthought- fal liberality so considerately placed at the Commissieaer 3 disposal. The ssaistance of your Honor’s Goverrment in erecting shedding must also be thankfuily ackoowledged ; and thus the success of this and futare Exhibitions has to a certain extent been assured The Commissioners believe that all classes ef our population, but especially the eultiva- tors of the soil, are becoming every year more and more coascious ef the necessity for improvement. Aware that the preduct of their industry must come into competition in the markets of ths werld, with those of other, perhaps more genial climes, where, it may bs, industry is more bighly developed, capital more freely invested, and elaborate machinery more generally employed, they now require the best breeding stock that can be obtained, the most serviceable implements and the most productive and hardy seeds and plants of all kinds. Exhibitions such az this are seen to be means towards the attainment of these desir- able objects, and the Commissioners predict that ere long a very general demand will arise for placing them on a more extensive, more generally useful and more attractive basis, than caa safely be attempted with the small appr-priatioa of one thousand doliars. The Commissioners have mach pleasure in congratulating your Hoaor on the success of the [eland Exhibitors, at the recent Dominien meeting held at Halifax, thus maintaining and increasing the reputation acquired last year at Montreal, and St. Joho New Brunswick. If, iuseod, a more veneral stisaulas to renewed exertion were require’, this recent signal suc- cess should indace all classes, each in their own liae of business to prepare fer future Do minion contests; and thus our Previncial Exhibition of Agricultural and other local industry, regarded as a training sehool fer future triumphs. The Commissioners now request you Honor to inaugurate. All which is respectfully submitted by the undersigued, R. P. HavrHosne, Chairman Board o’ Commissioners. Charlottetown, Oct. 12, 1881. _ be Parnell’s Arrest. Inecann’s chief agitator has lately been showing very clearly that his desire and aim is notso much amelioration as disruption ; and he has, in consequence, been arrested. The prudence of this step is to be questioned. While such men as Archbishop Croke stand by the Union and the Gov- ernment, and are satisfied to give the Land Act recently formed, a fair trial, it does not seem likely that the too free speech of such men as Parnell can amount to much in the way of harm. But by imprisoning them,the passions of their followers are excited and much harm may result. France, viewed from a sanitary point, is one of the most favored eountries. in the world, yet nearly 1,000,000 persons die there every year. From this it is ststisti- cally proved that the daily number of deaths in the werld averages 98,790, while the number of births is over 104,000 in twerty-four hours. The ‘imid, who think the errh is going to fill uo with people in a very few years and crowd them off, can take courage, as from the, latest showing thore is an annual increase in population of less than 3,000,000 at the present time. Competent authority has estimated that the product of all the silver mines of the world, sine» the discovery of America may be safely set down as follows: From 1492 to 1805 (311 years), $5,552,650,000, frem 1203 to 1848 (45 years), $1.568,380,795, from 1548 to 1508 (20 years), $813,400,000- from 1868 to 1875 (7 years)... $422,000,000, total $7,157,430,795. Mexico has pro- duced more than half of this vast sum. Since 1868 the United States kas been the leading producer. of becoming acquainted with some of the best literature of the world. If the French language has not the most excelient poetry it certainly excels in belles lettres. That the Acadians might the more effectually study and better master the English lan- guage, it was not necessary for them to know their own language thoroughly. To attain this end the present greatest need was the preseribing of better French books for the Acadian schools. This, he was glad to learn, was already receiving the attention of the Chief Superintendent of Education. J The next subject introduced was ‘* How to make Schools Pleasant.” On this ques- tion Miss Eliza Lawson, of Chariottetown, read awell prepared paper. A cheerful disposition on the part of the teacher was ithe most powerful means of making schoo) | pleasant to the little ones. As useful ad- /junets the writer recommended the culture of flowers, the adorning of school walls with pictures, etc. ; An interesting public meeting was held in the evening. FRIDAY MORNING SESSION, Miss Barr gave a reading lessen to her class, exercising them both in simultaneous and individual reading. P. R. Bowers, Esq., gave an interesting address on * The fine arts as an aid to Edueatiou.”” He contended that the most pictures;jge sites should be secured fo schoolhouses,—that the buildings them- selves, should be models of architectural ~that the vupils might be taught to cultivate flower plots, in connection with the schools. The study of paintings, and the teaching of painting and drawing were recommended also. The object of this art teaching was to improve the moral part of eur nature, and restrain the vicious. Mr. Bowers concluded with a description of a Kindergarten Schoel in Boston, visited by hitn some time ago. ** Don’t be in a Hurry,” was the title of a paper read by H. Lawson, Esq. As developement in the natural world around us—in the plant and tree—was not a hurried process, but gradual, so in the development of the intellect. The aim should be to train it gradually—direct the powers of the mind as they mature. The teacher was frequently discouraged if he did not see great results immediately springing from his efforts, the§watchword of teachers should be ‘‘ be patient,” for in dus time you will reap if you faint not. AFTERNOON SESSION, aste ‘he first duty of the session was to elect the officers for the ensuing year. The fol- lowing officers were elected :—President, D. Montgomery, Esq., (re-elected.) Vice- Presidents, Miss Eliza Lawson, Miss Janetta MePhail, Mr. Domitian Gallant, and Mr. James Cox. Secy-Treas., John SicSwain, Esq. Corresponding Secretary, Miss Isabella Millar. Ex Com. Neil McLeod, Esq., Summerside; L. Millar, Esq., Chrriottetewn; Miss Miss M. MeLeod, Charlottetown; M. Smith, Esq., Charloite- town; A. A. MLellan, Esq., Summerside. Principal MeKay, of Pictou Academy, N. S., addressed the Convention, giving an account of the system of instruction that obtained in the Schoola of Nova Scotia. Hor. D. Ferguson in a short address ai- luded to the benetits to be derived from associations of this kind. He congratulat- ed the teachers on the success of their Association, and hoped the agriculturists of the country would take a leaf from the association book, and unite fer the pur- pose of mutual improvement. The last paper read before the Associa- tion was by T. A. LePage, Esq., entitled ** Home Work.” For young children little or no home work should be given. As the ehild advances in life such subjects shoutd be assigned for home tasks as the pupil can comprehend. The practice of merely memorizing what is net understood was one to be deplored, and the results ef which must be disastrous. Vote of thanks were given to the Rail- way Superintendent for granting reduced rates of travel to delegates, and to the Board of School Trustees for Charlotte town for the use of the building in which the meetings of the Convention were held. In the evening a social meeting was held, at which addresses were given by Principal McKay, of Pictou, N. 8., H. Lawson, Esq., Mr. Lavers, of the St. John Telegraph, Rev. J. M. McLeod, Neil McLeod, Esq., Sum- merside, and Hon. A. A. McDorald. Readings were given by Miss McNeill, Miss Nellie Lawson, Miss Barr, and T. A. Lepage, Esq. The readings were inter- spersed with excellent music. oon mene ee lpn Canadian News. The telephone wires from Toronto to Hamilton are being erected.

Every week some item of information re. lating to the development of those resources appears to prove that the narrow views of Mr. Blake about that interesting portion of the Dominion only proceeded from inaptitude on his par! to weigh with accuracys the various opiviops of British Columbia which were afloat at an earlier period in the history of the Dominion.

THE DAILY HXA YESTERDAYS RACE. An Exciting Contest. THE DAVIES-ROBINS CREW WINS—OVER TWO THOUSAND DOLLARS CHANGE HANDS, The match races between the Lavers- Hinch evew, of Halifax, and the Davies- Robins crew, of Charlottetown, for $100 a side, was rowed on the Hillsborough Course yesterday evening at half past four o'clock. A strong wind prevailed until three o'clock; then the weather gradually calined, and at four o'clock the referee—Mr. Kad—decided that the race should start immediately, The report that it was to come off spread rapidly, and before the men ap- peared the Railway Wharf was thronged with spectators. Here botting was lively but in no case were odds given. Those ‘* who were in the business” estimated that over two thousand dollars changed hands. Halifax men were chiefly the losers. At half-past four the Lavers-Hinch crew appeared. They were much admired for their able form and _ yraceful stroke. The Davies-Robins crew shortly followed. and were warmly received by all. They appeared to some in better condition than on Wednesday, and were the eubject of complimentary remarks from the Nova Scotia sporting men, who one aad all agree that the Davies-Robins crew is a good one, and with a little training need not be afraid to compete with the best crews in the Deminion. The men rowed into line, and received instructions from the referes regarding the conditions ef the race. The Lavers-Hinch took the inside position. As the bows stood even, a revolver shot sounded and both dashed oif in splendid style with the Davies-Robins taking a little advantage— perhaps a quarter length. In this position they stood until the quarter mile. Here the course of each beat began to change. The Lavers-Hinch—on the flats—made a ‘B line” for their buoy, while the Davies-Robins crew—in the current—pulled a good distance out oi their eourse towards Kelly’s Cove. A mile was reached, however, and they—pulling thirty-eight strokes to the minuts—got three quarters of a length to their credit. But when they shaped their course to round the buoy it was evident they had lost three or four boat lengths by the bad course previously taken. Now the Lavers- Hinch crew seemed similarly unfortunate. Although they pulled a splendid course, a little out of the carrent,and steered straight for the buoy, the strong tide which runs into Beer's Creek carried them three or four lengths out of their course towards the Asylum _— Point. This placed both crews in positions as even as they started. Tuey turnen the buoys at the same moment and entered the home stretch bow-and-bow. ihe excitement on railway wharf at this juncture was intense. It was now known tha: the crews were making a desperate struggle for first position, but which shouid suceeed in = gettting it was impossible to tell. From the mast heads of vessels and every prominent posi- tion available en the wharf it was sheuted lustily : ‘‘Charlottetown ahead!” Few believed the exclamations, but they proved to be correct as the boats came inte view. Atter turning the buoy the Davis-Robins men bent closely to the oar, and spurted occasionally. At length they forged to the front, and when off Kensington they could be seen invariably pulling across the bow of the Lavers-Hinch beat, and charitably (?) giving them the benefit of the ‘‘wash.” From this it was avident the Davies-Robins crew led by at least two lengths. Nearer they came, both rowing between thirty-six and thirty-eight strokes to the minute. It was now plain that the Charlottetown men had the race well in hand, but they had better make no mistakes as the Halifax men were in hot pursait, rowing thirty-six strokes to the minute in_ splendid atyle. The enthusiasm which pre- vailed as the Davies-Robins crew rowed in victorious was teeming and when they passed the winning post in twenty minutes and seven seconda, two and a half lengths ahead of their opponents, they were cheered to the echo. Both crews rowed immediately to the boat house at Quirk’s Wharf, where the winners received the con- gratulations of their friends. The Lavers- Hinch crew were well pleased with the con- test as were the people from Halifax. They say that the race was a ‘‘good square” one, and they express the opinion that the Charlottetown crew—Messrs. F. T. & W. L. Dean, Daniel Davies, and Thomas Robins—are rising oarsinen. The Lavers-Hinch crew and those who accompanied them left for home this morn- ing. Previous to the departure they were presented with a purse of $108, which was made up among the sporting men last even- ing. Apples and Onions.
