          Currently it doesn't have .deb versions. You will have to download the package in another form and install it manually.
          I am copying the original answer from here:Linux Mint forum




          Ok.. We have now Mate 1.14 released, but we don't have (jet) the debs
          in repos. But there is not a problem.. We can install it by hand, by
          compiling it.



          Note: This is just an example how to install the one package! To have
          entire desktop You must install entire suite!Just repeat the steps for every package and you're done.



          --- Before we begin -> sit down, make a coffee, calm down and make a SYSTEM BACKUP just in any case!
          --- I am not responsible for any damage done to your machine/system! All You do, You do at your own risk! If You don't know what you're doing, don't do that! Better wait for the packages in the ppa!
          --- Ok.. Download the package here (and/or all packages you need/want):
          http://pub.mate-desktop.org/releases/1.14/mate-desktop-1.14.0.tar.xz



          Or here:
          http://linux.softpedia.com/get/Desktop-Environment/Window-Managers/MATE-84165.shtml#download



          Entire release is here (recommended download source):
          http://pub.mate-desktop.org/releases/1.14/



          And here: http://wiki.mate-desktop.org/status:1.14



          Then unpack (one at a time) and install all the necessary
          dependencies:



          Code: Select all and then type sudo apt-get install gtk+-2.0



          Next go to the already unpacked directory, RPM in it and choose "open
          in terminal".



          Now type a command:



          Code: Select all and then type ./configure



          Then:



          Code: Select all and then type make



          And at the end:



          Code: Select all and then type sudo make install



          Wait a moment, until it installs and do the machine reboot.



          If by the "./configure" some errors/infos about missing dependencies
          appears, then just simply install them and do the ./configure again.
          All should be ok now.



          If terminal shows something up about missing or wrong "dconf" version
          then do:



          Code: Select all and then type sudo apt-get install libdconf-dev



          And try again ;) This helped me and the installation ended without any
          other problems.



          That same installation schema apply for all other downloaded packages.



          Enjoy! :)
