The ‘‘Coban.” FIRST TRIP TO CHARLOTTETOWN OF THE NEW STEAMER OF THE BLACK DIAMOND LINE.

The steamer ‘‘Coban,’’ Captain Ander- son, arrived at this port yesterday morning, from Pictou, and after receiving freight, proceeded to Montreal this morning. She is an iron screw steamer of 1060 tons gross measurement, and has 4 capacity of carry- ing fourteen hundred tons of freight. She was built at Sunderland, England, in 1882, and has been running between Montreal ana the lower ports for the past fifteen months, also a short time to Bermuda. The “Coban” is a very handsome steamer in build, rig, and finish. She is supplied with

all the latest steamboat fittings, such as

steans wheel gear, forward lighthouses, fire

engines, steam wenches, _ etc. Her

eabinu passenger accommodation is o } . ¢ ,

emall, but very comfortable. The

saloon is splendidly furnished and the

staterooms, eye maple, and

which are of polished bird- teak and mahogany, are well arranged ¢ beautifully finished. The cabitt? now accommedates twenty-seven passengers, but itis the intention of the Company to extend it to accommodate over sixty. The ‘‘Coban” has also accommoda- tion for twenty-six steerage and intermediate passengers, but the Company intend also to extend the steerage accommodation to suit the requirements of the route. The boat runs at the rate of ten knots per hour, and makes the round trip from Montreal to lower ports and St. John’s, Nfid., in fifteen days. She has been «uite successful on the | ronte, and the Company feel warranted in | getting another boat to run with her next season. This boat is now being built in England. She will have a capacity for carrying seventeen hun dred tons of freight sixty or seventy cabin, and about fifty steerage passengers. When placed on the route next spring the Company will be able to give the people of the lower ports the advantage of weekly steamboat commu- | ni¢ation with Montreal and St. Jokn’s, |

Nfld. One of the steamers will be command- ed by Capt. Robert Fraser of this city, whowts well known as the successful com-

mander of the steamer ‘‘Prince Edward.” Capt. Fraser will leave for England this fall.

Besides the ‘‘Coban” the Black Diamond Line have a steamer named the ‘‘Tunstall’”’ plying between North Sydney and Mon- treal. She carries seventeen hundred tons of freight and pays a good dividend.

Captain Ander who commands the “Coban,” is am experienced mariner. He has been running in gulf port steamers for the past ten years, and during that time has made a brilliant record

We wish the Black Diamond Line every success in their enterprise.

MACHINES AND IMPLEMENTS.

But we must not forget the Exhibition. Before coming to the stock, let us take a look at the machines and implements for use upon the farm. They are in great number and j,variety,--but the larger pro- portion are well known on the Island. The machines fer which Messrs. Gill and | Kinsman, aud Mr. Strong are agents on the Island, jare prominent, and attract much attention, the ‘“‘self-binder’ being a marvel of ingenuity. Mr.

improved potato digger is criticized. It

Mc Kenzie’s favorably

also is con- sidered by many to be the best digger (on the grounds and there is much

lregret that it cannot be seen in operation. | The Hall Manufacturing Company are ex- | hibiting their improved ‘combined thrasher, shaker andfanner. The improvement con- sists in the introduction of a new kind of shaker which does away with the necessity for the old fashioned ‘‘beaters.” Last year the Company sold twenty of thes: machines (without the improvement) in New Brunswick, and this year they will, no doubt, sella greater number with the im- provement. A wazgon furnished with an apparatus by which large stones, trees, etc., can be lifted and swung and carried off the field, is being exhibited. The man who is showing it is, himself alone, lifting stones imbedded in the Exhibition grounds which weigh several tons. Simpler and more useful—at least to the farmers of the Island —is the machine for stumping. This machine consists of a light but strong }derrick which aman can easily handle, ifrom which is suspended a plate of iron | about three inches wide; on each side of the plate are square iron rods with notches on the outer side; these are attached to the plate by means of a link on either side which catches in the rods as they slide up and down; a chain is fastened to the lower end of the rods, and a lever is attached to each side: put the chain around the roots of the stumps, work the levers, and the stump must come. Any blacksmith and farmer could make the implement; but of course it is patented. The ditching machine might be useful to many farmers, butitis more complicated. Mr. Dickiesons improved machines for fanning and seed sowing attract much attention.
