Orrawa, April 14th—Honourable Mr. Patterson spoke on the budget and was replied to by Clarke Wallace, yesterday remarked that Mr. Patter-
sons gift for misrepresentation was equal
to hie capacity to make a noire.
Tie Premier made a brief statement reepecting the fast Atlantic Line. He said that Messrs Patterson, Tate & Co., Lad met great difficulty, but had made some progress, notwithstanding The Government had information that the greater part of the capital required bad been underwritien and that a strong board was formed.

Tn reply to a question the Premier said that he could see ro reason why the plebi- scite bill should not be introduced at close budget debate. He could not say what questions would be proposed in the bill.
Replying to a furtner question by Sir Charles Tupper, Sir Wilfrid Laurier said that after the vote was taken the govern- ment would abide by the decision of the people.

Sie,—Is it not time for our rulera, both | provincial and city, to rub the cobwebs, out lof their eyes and remember the. offer | made ty the Provincial Exhibition Asao- ciation to provide for an Exhibition next fall open to the ether Provinces?
Exhibitions open to outside competetion and exhibiters from abroad invited and urged by al] sorts of indncements to come, are considered by enterprising commeni- ties io be one of the necessities of the The regulation in our former ex= fhid tion prize list which required mauu- actured exhibits to be made inthis Pro vince an. live stock to be owned here, is a coadition never required hy any Othercansiderable exhibition anywhere. | lt turns our shows into mutual admiration societies, aud robs the shows of any true emuiation or spirited competetion. In other places exhibitions are made the means of advertising the peculiar advantages of the country in which they take place ; indeed that is generally their object. Now in what way can Provincial Exhibitions, managed as ours bave been ia the past, advertize the strong points in Charlottetown or Provincial industry ? We know it has been a failure in that respect, and our county shows carried on in the same narrow vnenterprisiig epirit have been more pronounced disapointments. What we need is @ complete change in our ideas as to the aims and re- quirements of a Provincial Exhibition the expenditure for carrying out successfully such a show, with accomodation for stock and machinery from New Brunswick and Nova Scotia, together with @ greatly ex- tended prize list and a sum to pay for the carriage of stock and other exhibits form distant points in this province, must be very large for sosmall a province. Arrangements should be made for combining all our shows for one year at least into one good substantial Exhibition. Lively Charlotte~ town with its furniture, boot and shoes and wood-working factories, machine shop, and foundries can bring out a good show in those lines, and our farmers can certain~ ly more than hold their own in the products oftheir fi:lde, orchards and stables. Some people hint that Charlottetown hay no accomodation for the crowds of sight- seers that would fleck to such a show. In this supposition they acknowledged the likelibood of the success of an Interprovi~ ncial Exhibition. But as it must extend over séveral more days than curolu atyle shows the fear of acrush is groundless. PROGRESS.
