Every seat in the room was filled. The pro- gramme was one of the best given for some time time. The pastor Rev. D. B. McLeod presided. Every item on the programme was good and those having the affair in charge deserve credit for their good taste in the selections. Mr. E Hil.’s solo, recitation by Maggie Gillis, another by Harry Smith (the little son of our esteemed Water Commissioner) an exercise by nine little girls and the Flag Drill (England and American) were ex- ecarcely fair to par- ticulariz: as all were so well rendered.

Any legislation baving in view the ad- vancement of our farmers, ftruit-growers and dairymen shall receive our careful attention. A more thorough acquaintance with the British marke’ has beep acquired through the visit of a commissioner from this Province who studied the markets of Great Britain personally, and we bave no dvuub’ that the result will be of benefit to our farmers. With great pleasure we note that a Bill! providing for the participation of this Prevince in the construction of a bridge for railway and general traffic purposes across the Hillsborough River will be laid before us, and we hope that this bridge with its advantages will soon be a reality. We shall carefully consider any legisla- tion relating to the foreshores~ bays and rivers of Prince Edward I+land, and trust that the measures for placing this Pro- vince On a more substantial fiuancial ba-is will have the desired resulta. The measures for amending the Road Act, and the construction of Permanent Pullic Works will receive our considera tion. We thavk Your Honor for ihe assurance that the public Accounts and the Depart mental Reporte as well as the Estimates for the curreot yeer will be submitted to ue. We concur with Your Honor that the peace and prosperity of our people demand our grateful acknowledgement to a kind Providence. We assure Your Honor that the subjects to which you bave invited our attention as wellas any other measures submitted to us, will be carefully considered, and we trust that our deliberations may be direct- ei by wisdom and aided by Divine Pro~ yvicoence.
