The resolutions passed at the conven- tion of the Ontario Amocinti'vn of Fairs and Exhibitions, held in Toronto Feb. 14th to Hill), are likely to have far reach- ing enacts. The Agricultural societies of the Province for many years have been receiving tired gun“ from the Govern- mam. irrespective of the work they were domg. At the recent convention, as a re- sult of information furnished by Provincial Superintendent H. B. Coven. armlntion was adopted, recommending that in future grants Gould be distributed to societies in proportion to are mount of money they expend for agriculturel poi-pone. It Is probable that the Agricultunl and Arts Act; will be revised Ind this change made within a year or so. Should this be done it will result in many of the smaller societies in the Province being out on and societal which ya doing good work being strengthened. An 01min;- tion of”).

The Island is large and in many places fertile; and for its great beauty is known as the Queen of the Hebrides. The natives generally suppose the name to have been derived rout Ella. the daughter of a Norwegian Vice- ory, who resided on the Island when in possession of the Danes. This sup- position is strengthened in the estima- tion of many, by the circumstance of the lady's sepulchre being pointed out to this day in one ofthe most pictur- esque spots in the whole Island. Her resting place is marked out by two grey stones about thirty feet apart, at Bealaeh deurg. Others suppose the name to have arisen from the distin- guished position which this island oc- cupied among the Hebrides. The great McDonald, Lord of the, Isles, established his Council ot fourteen oi the heads of the principal families of the Island; and the said fourteen as- ferg, their Lord with advice in his bliberations and administered the law among his subjects. Hence thisseal of judgment came to be called I-lagh. that is the Island of law, “lagh " being the Gaelic for law, but convenivnre and refinement caused the guterul "turh" to give place to the vowel sound which now ends in the word Ile.
