system of Quebec.Rosewater reports from chiefs, at the cloee of municipal years, complimentary all round, do not cover the ground.The present chairman of the Committee, Councillor Owen Murphy, is the rignt man in the right place, and we trust he will see the force of these remarks.We have before called attention to the Firo Brigade.We consider the men insufficiently paid.They hardly receive enough to keep body and soul together, yet they are expected to furnish themselves with working clothing.It is time that the Corporation saw the neces sity of providing for the most important servants of the city, articles necessary to the proper performance of their duty, as necessary as the apparatus of their department.Working uniforms will cost money, not a great deal, bnt the citizens would rather see the money spent in this way than in any another we could mention.THE FIRE DEPARTMENT.The Fire Committee of the Montreal corporation, in reporting on the state ot the force, and the circumstances connected with the fire by which St.Patrick\u2019s Hall was destroyed, make some observa tien* which we consider very sensible, and applicable to the Quebec Fire Department as well as that of Montreal.The charge of drunkenness against the Brigade generally, is not borne out by the evidence.In only one instance was actual intoxication witnessed.The Committee recommend that for the future no man be permitted to introduce into the station any intoxicating liquor under pain of dismissal.The subject of discipline and drill is taken up.The Committee approve of a suggestion offered that a regular system of drill should be adopted by which the men of the Brigade may be made thoroughly familiar with the working and oandling of hose, lad ders, hydrants, reels, and other apparatus.Such a system, ef | periodical drill would have the effect of developing the physical strength and vigor of firemen, and of increasing their efficiency.We would Hke to see the Fire Committee of Quebec taking into considéra lien the ad-visibility of providing rules for periodical drills, by which the men could be always kept in training for the work they have to perform.Another valuable auggea-tion.is made M It often occurs at firee that firemen are at a loss to know how to reach the interior of buildings on fire, and valuable time is sometimes lost on that amount.To remedy this evil, it is suggested that every now and thenf Jae chief guardians aad the men composing the Salvage Corps, should (with the consent of the occupants, which will no doubt be readily given) visit the interior of the principal and moat valuable buildings in their respective districts, so as to make themselves familiar with the distribution and means of ingress and egress thereof, and thus ensure a speedy introduction of the men into such buildings in case they ahodki take fire.\u201d It is further suggested that the permanent staff of both the Water aad Road Departments should be organised into a reserve, to be called ont only on the occasion of large flrefe and upon the sounding of a given alarm, and wit* that a proper understanding be arrived at with the Chief of Police with reference to the duties to be performed by policemen at fires.The Committee recommend that the number of firemen should be increased to fifty.The Corporation, it is suggested, should obtain the necessary power \u201cto compel proprietors and architects who are about to erect new buildings of large dimensions and over three stories high, to de-^ posit in the office of the Inspector of Buildings a copy of the plan and sections of such buildings, that the same may be referred to aad examined by the Fire Department.In fact, this precautionary ureeanr» is so obviously in the interest of the proprietors themselves, that it may be presumed they will voluntarily come forward and furnish plans, not only of intended buildings but of structures already erected of the nature and for the purposes above adverted to.\u201d With regard to the water supply, the report says : 'The construction of tanks in the business pert of the city has also engaged the attention of your Committee, and they are of opinion theta certain number of these tanks, where a constant supply of water could be had, to supply the steam fire engines in case of need, would prove to be of great advantage, especially in case of scarcity of water from the hydrants.\u201d We would press upon the Fire Committee of our Corporation the propriety of studying the importxfifc points of this report.AJciowïedge of the interior and means of ingress and egress, __fwm Targe public and private buildings, stares and warehouses, is something which should he reger^ed as mdiapensa-bl«s'.Drill aad discipline cannot be overlooked.While most of the men of the Quebee Brigade are competent and active, periodical exercises would increase the standard of excellence and efficiency of the Force.Heretofore we have had the Montreal Brigade lauded to the skies as a model of efficiency, but their discipline was for mere outward show, and the gratification of the vanity of municipal A Pair of stride*.Recently, at the Syracuse House, I break-tested with a- pair of brides and a pair of bridegrooms\u2014a sort of bridal quartette.They were from Cortland, I think, in the country.I knew they were just married from a variety of reasons.First, when they alighted from the omnibus to enter the hotel, both yonng ladies took the arms of the gentlemen, who said, \u201cDear, let me carry yonr satchel.\u201d Just behind them came some old married people.I knew they had been married some time, for the men bounded out-, starting, luggage in hand, straight for the hotel, leaving their wives with small satchels to follow single file behind them.At break-test the brides appeared in bridal lavender\u2014 lavender dresses, lavender hats with lavender strings and lavender gloves.If ever I get married, Mrs.Parkins shall wear (If she pleases) a suit of plain black, and then we can enjoy onr honeymoon in peace.1 The young husbands both wore broadcloth suits aad Mack slouch hats.Both wore paper collars and cuffs, and one wore a paper shirt bosom.Alas I what a shock such deception must be to a young aud guileless wife I Why, in my opinion a paper collar is more indicative of a real shirt than a clothes line ! At breakfast these yonng husbands didn\u2019t help themselves first whan they sat down at the table, bnt they torned to the brides in lavender, and said lovingly, \u201c Have a roll, dear ?\" They pat some butter on the lavender brides\u2019 plates and they looked up and said, \u201c Thank you dear,\" with a smile too happy to describe.When breakfast was over, one of the yonng husbands smiled sweetly and said\u2014 \u201cNow, darling, can\u2019t I smoke jnsfc once\u2014 you know you said I might ?\" \u201cYes, Charley, just once.\u201d And the two bri Jes stood and looked vacantly out of the window tiH their sweethearts came back.When the old married people sat down there was a different scene The old fellows scoped in their beefsteak and sausage, never looking up to know how their wives were getting along, and when they got up they shuffled off into the reading room, aud loaded up their mereschanm pipes with the strong best cavaadish.Then they talked politics, expectorating on the store, and around the sine stove mat, without once thinking of their poor wives, who were left to am ose themselves in neighborhood chat.The Hawaiian Kingdom.Late advices from Honolulu state that the plantation owners are busily engaged in gathering in the season\u2019s sugar, and the yield is expected to be a large one.On account of the low prices ruling at San Francisco, it is probable that the growers will endeavor to increase their profits by seeking a market for their sugar in New Zealand and Australia.Ixrte news from that quarter is favorable.There is also considerable reciprocity and annexation talk on the part of the leading mer chants of the kingdom, and an attempt is being made to revive the old agitation, averring that it is the only measure in which there is salvation for the commerce of the country.A few speak out boldly for annexation to the United States, while all who receive government patronage or are hopeful of doing so, are stoutly opposed to any such change.The natives are against annexation.They, how.ever, have no views or opinions of their own, bat simply reflect those of foreigners.The foreign population are divided in their wishes, some contending for annexation and others opposing it.Looking at the question from a disinterested stand-point, there can scarcely be two opinions as to what measure would conduce to the general good.The Hawaiian islands, says a correspondent, are at the present time in a neglected and luD^tushingcon dition.Here we have a magnificent climate and a country rich in agricultural resources unoccupied and uncultivated.Thu eutire population of the islands docs not exceed 50,-000, while ten or fifteen times that number would not be too many for the resources of the country ; moreover, the native population is decreasing at the rate of nearly 1000 annually.At the present rate of decline, forty or fifty years hence scarcely a dozen Kanakas will be found on the Sandwich islands.This effect is brought about by a multiplicity of causes.The great desideratum of the country is population and skilled labor, and, as there is no hope of either of these from internal sources, it must come from beyond the sea.DYSPEPSIA IS A HYDRA-HKADttD MONSTER, from which nearly a'l Tremont Street, Boston, OoL 7 1871.'

The Parliament has now been long enough in session to warrant a brief review of its proceedings, and some reflections respecting the conduct of the great parties now wrestling for the supremacy.It may be that any views on these or Cognate subjects may appear, at this early stage of the session, superficial or premature, hut no one can be expected to go deeper than the line of his experience permits, or, to form very positive estimates of a campaign whose opening skirmishes, only, have been fought.To begin at the natural point of the subject, everybody came to Ottawa with the expectation that the session would prove tha most important, in all respects, with which we have hitherto been acquainted.The public, as well, held this opinion, which has been justified by what has taken place up to this time.In review tag the composition of the Commons, the observer of preceding years could not fail to be struck with the changes in its personnel.Quebec district, alone, was re presented by many new feces, several ot the old being conspicuous by their absence.We missed Messrs.Irvine, Simard, Brousseau, Chauveau, Beaubien and othenjand of the more Western members, \u2018 Sir Geo.Cartier, Messrs.Workman, Mac-dougall, lately of Lanark, Walsh, and many Ctore.Indeed about 80 faces apppears for the first time, the changes affecting ail pA*'t* of the Dominion.Mr.Jones, of Halifax, a leading Opposition member, has been supplanted by Mr.Tobin, a Ministerialist, who moved the address, and is, apparently, a matt of ability.We have lost the only man m the Mouse who was an Annexationist, or who had the courage to avow his real sentiments* Mr.Carmichael, of Nova Scotia.On the ether hand, emphatic or blatant loyalists have come in, including Mr.Palmer, of St.John\u2019s, Dodge, of North York, a \u2018 lately naturalist Canadian, of American birth, and such Oppositionists as Patterson, of Brant- It was amusing to hear the maudlin professions of Loyalty utter ed by Messrs.Palmer and Dodge, and then* ridiculously, earnest deprecations of colonial independence.One would hare thought tins question had been mentioned in the Speech from the Throne, whereas not a word was said on the subject.It was simply dragged into the debate, to supply a theme for ultra-loyal; bunkum, or an opportunity for t assuming credit fora virtue of general profession.These gratuitous loyal démonstrations to some look as suspicious as the claims of neophytes to unalloyed orthodoxy, or of reformed rakes to ex-aired morality.It must be confessed that-.Sir F- IIhacks was unfortunate in jeering Hon.John Young's independence opinions, in reply to Mr.Mackenzie\u2019s taunt that be preferred that gentleman\u2019s political company to the gallant kpight\u2019s.dir Francis imagines a man cannot be a good.legislator or citizen of Canada who « believes in the abstract doctrine that she would be better separated from Britain.Mr.Young, who had not spoken in the de-bate, made a brief, forcible, manly reply.Having instanced the many occasions on which he had served and offered to serve his country?when in danger, he demand ed, with natural impatience and indignation\u2014should a man be cried down or proscribed, here, for discussing a question, which has been discussed by leading Ifritia h statesmen, at home, including ex-Governon-iieaeral of Onada for years?Surely not, if the words Canadian freeman, or British liberty, are to prove other than a sham.The peppery {might certainly had been provoked by Mr.\tbut he might have re- plied without this undeserved fling at a former colleague.The consequence of the loyalty cry from the Ministerial side ms a senqs of rebukes from the other, including natural im* utaLons of hypo snsy.Bq| to finish wiMi the ; subject of the new House, it seems verydiflerent in more than ene respect from the old.Its elements are more varied\u2014there is a greater diversity of talent\u2014a larger number of men who can speak with effect and a moral general desire to make the osmtorical mark.There is also observa-ma, to parties not carried away by preju-diee, a rehix-ition of party discipline, ride by side with, or springing from a krger independent element than previous» jr visible.This change has been on more than one occasion anticipated by the CauancLM, aa one of the result!* probable from the operation of the various influences on the public mind.It would require more space than this letter will permit, to analyze or describe those J'ac-toea of the present reault.The enlarge ment of the nation, the gathering together of diverse races, and dissimilar communities, the development of the press and independent public opinion\u2014these and kindred movements co operate in producing result* of this kind.As the isr is given to ambition, new men pre-xt themselves to the public, untried ^ and energies are called into ex-d.sre often preferred to those of I well-worn actors on the political stage.The latter decline with years, \" sometimes hastening their fell by blund-.er* sed nusdeeda.Under such circum-i the exaggerated personal power ie«ce of a few men diminishes and disappears.A distribution wet among a larger number suc-monopoly, the sphere of action permanently widened, and the crowd of competitors for fame and authority greatly enlarged.We have now a host of young and middle-aged men in the lists, struggling for the prizes of political life.The old champions like Car-tier, Brown, Howe, Galt, Hincks and Sir John Macdonald are passing away, or likely to be supplanted soon by a younger and more vigorous race.Certainly it must be admitted that among the candidates for distinction to-day, including those known and little known in the House of Commons, are men of good ability\u2014and a few, like Blake\u2014of commanding talent.We have, at least, the mental capital necessary for our national co-partnership.I might further analyse the material of the House, and show that it might have been better, as far as the ability of not a few of the members is concerned.What prevented this result?In a general way I answer, poverty on the part of some of the aspirants, personal jealousy in various quarters official and private, and\" a desire on the part of certain influential politicians to secure in Parliament the obedient, plastic sort of material which either lacks the thinking machine, or quietly dispenses with it at the back of a superior.This economises mental action, and supplies the docile follower.But what has been the effect of this policy of the leaders?In not a few cases, the men, who would not be snuffed out and the people averse to electing passive instruments or animated logs, took the matter into their own hands, and secured the election of rational animals, who will certainly ex-esoise the minds they possess.Thus, while party tradition# will be respected in the retention of old names, we shall see more independent action this Parliament, I think, than we have been lately accustomed to.There are men in Parliament who owe no fevours to either party, and who have the spirit to resist the attempts of either, should such be made, to drag them through the mire of error or dishonesty.As respects the Government party, there are influences apart from natural or individual feeling, to affect their standing and prospects.As all Governments grow old their sins and errors accumulate, making enemies accordingly.The olaims upon them increase, all or even a considerable number of which it is impossible to meet, while for every favour or reward bestowed, a dozen enemies or indifferent friends are made.With regard to the preaept Government, whether its retirement would be a benefit to the country or not, the fact of its recent ma terial loss of strength cannot for an instant be denied.True, the Government may conduct the public business in a way to regain strength\u2014a feat one might believe within the skill of such a practiced and clever politician as Sir John Macdonald ; time will show whether this will be the case or not» Meantime, however, it would be fbolish to shut one\u2019s eyes to the fact that the Government might easily lose even their present majority by incapacity or misconduct.They may gain this session by the blunders of their adversaries, but it would be perilous to count muen upon such a contingency.from the Government the concession of a strip of ground for the widening of the Grande Allee.Councillor M.A.Hearn, when the subject of private property abutting on his strip was brought up in discussion, chose to launch a deliberate insult at the proprietor of Kincardine Place, whom he oelieved to be absent, stating that if Mr.Joseph never came back the city would be no loser.Now, we are not Mr.Joseph\u2019s champion, but we must say that such conduct as this is highly reprehensible.Councillor Hearn, or any otner Councillor, has no right to come into the City Council and deliberately insult citizens of Quebec, of the highest standing.The President of the Quebec Board of Trade is fortunately a man who can look down upon such petty spite.The dignity ot the Council should be uphold, and we are surprised to learn that Councillor Hearn\u2019s conduct went unrebuked.We are in a position to state that Mr.Hector Fabre\u2019s complaint against the English speaking merchants and cove-owners, is unfounded.No orders have been given by these gentlemen to their employees to vote for Mr.Caron, on pain of dismissal.Somebody lias evidently been imposing upon Mr.Fabre.He may rest assured that he will obtain from all parties fair play ; a fair field and no favor.The quality of the British people, fairness, will be exhibited in his regard as fully as it ever lias been.There will be neither coercion or intimidation ; the Conservative candidates are before the constituency on their merits, and on their merits alone do they seek election.THE HEALTH BY-LAWS.This is the season of the year when particular attention should be paid to sanitary regulations, when the melting snow exposes the crop of foul matter of the winter\u2019s gathering.Alderman Hearn, in the City Council on Friday night, called attention to the disgraceful state of the winter roads jn many p*r|8' of the city, especially the slips leading from Champlain street to the river.People are allowed to deposit their snow and filth in all manner of places, even on the public highway, with perfect immunity from police restriction.The police seem to think they have no business whatever to interfere with residents in the exercise ot this assumed right to defile the streets and poison the air.It js time that this duty of the police, of putting in operation the moat important by-laws on the statute book, were performed.We have more than once been called upon to complain of the carelessness in this regard, and we that an early commencement will be made, The force is not merely intended as a semi-military one ; though it is provincial in name, in reality its functions are purely municipal, and whatever mistaken notions as to the extent of duty may exist should be speedily rectified.The tax-payers of Quebec, from whose pockets the sum for the maintenance of this force, about $25,000, is yearly extracted, expect some thing more for their money than the parading ot St.John street, and the occasional arrest of a sliding or snowballing boy, or an unfortunate Bacchana lian- «se, awl< the old w< MATTERS MUNICIPAL.A letter waa read before the City Coun cil at its last meeting, from Mr.Charles Baillarge, City Surveyor, in relation to the last report of the Market Committee, already alluded to in these columns.Mr.Baillarge states that which must be patent to every one who heard the first letter read in connection with the report, that hé never intended anything haughty or insulting, and that he does not claim for himself a position lofty enough to warrant him in assuming any high and mighty stand with the Committees of the Corporation ; that if he did in any w ly allude to the private business carried on by gentlemen of the Committee, it was only to indicate whence'the opposition to his arrangement with Noel came.He showed that the question in dispute was as Po whether technical knowledge or mere red-tapeisg) should prevail.The report states that the matter was never brought under the notice of the Commit tee; Mr.Baillarge produces a letter of hjs of the 3rd February, and appends a previous ope of the ISth January, complaining of the delay iq signing the Markets pay lists, to show that the assertion was inaccurate.This delay caused a loss of time on the part of toe men, and many an unnecessary visit to the City Hall to look after the pay.Mr.Baillarge, who had merely complained of the action of the Committee relative to the landing slip at the Finlay Marfee^, now a much more serious charge, and asks if fie is not bound to protest against undue tampering with his plans and specifications, as in the case of the poteon lately built at Cap Rouge.Hcft'Foommitlee tinkering secured for the city a bill of extras footing up $996.Yet, notwitfistand the advance in wages, and the increased price of material, the second pontoon is now under contract a£ Oliyeys ship-yard for a sum barely in advance of that for wbjob the first was undertaken; without the extra cost of the knees and bolts which formed part of Mr.BaUlarge\u2019s original design, and which, after being retrenched by the Committee, had to be restored in order to give the pontoon that strength and solidity necessary to its fitness for the purposes for which it was intended.Mr.Baillarge was quite right in bringing such matters before the City Council ; it was his dnty to let the.Council and the taxpayers know exactly the point where it is needful to apply the brake ot public opinion.The money wasted on the first pontoon would have gone far toward pro viding working umforms for the men of the Fire Brigade.After the somewhat acrimonious debating of the City Council on Friday night, Alderman Hearn paid a well-merited compliment to the Minister of Public Works and interim Minister of Militia, Hon.II.L.Langcvin, for the kind manner in which he used his influence to obtain for the Corporation moijsriTtiis.Nsw Yorx, March 16\u2014The intelligence of the Governor\u2019s decision has been communicated to Foster, who seems to bear the nows-calmly.A special from London, dated yesterday, says :\u2014A rumor generally prevails in London that Disraeli has refused the Premiership, but it is believed to be Incorrect.Facta simply are that Disraeli has respectfully indicated to the Queen 'the difficulties he would have to confront if he assumed the office, even if able to secure the aid of the supporters considering the parliamentary position of.his opponents.Inasmuch fed it is necessary for him to consult his friends, ue baa asked for delay.To-night, Lord Derby aspired from Paris, and had a long consultation with Disraeli.No decision waa arrived at, however, nor will be until to-morrow.It is possible that Disraeli will refuse to accept office, but it\u2019s n t probable.If he accepts, he will probably finish up the business of the session by the end of June, and then dissolve the House.The Conservatives all over the country are very confident as po the result qf the ejection.GAçasfuao, Ill., March 1-f\u2014The murderer Osborne jn his confession insists that he was hired to do the deed.- London, March J5\u20143 p.n».\u2014Disraeli has declined to eccepf office.Re waited on the Queen at Bucjiiugham Palace this morning to announce bis decision, and explain to her Majesty his reason which com pel him thereto.The Earl of Derby concurs with Disraeli in the conviction, that the Conservatives cannot accept the responsibility of forming a Government at this time.MIDIKIITJSNTtKS.BRIX-AIIV.London, March 16, p.m.-nflincp tfie announcement that Mr.Disraeli and Earl Derby had declined to accept the office, nothing of a definite character in relation to the Cabinet crisis has transpired.The rumor current this evening is that Earl Granville will be Piemier, and Mr.Cardwell, Chancellor of the Exchequer.Mr.Gladstppe left London to-day for the country, he will probabjy return on Monday.It is expected that parliament wjll adjourn from Monday until Thursday.The John Bull newspaper says, a marriage is projected between the Duke of Ediuburgh and the daughter of the Czar of Russia.London, March 16.\u2014Mr.Gladstone hail an interview with the Queen yesterday.If fa possible a further adjournment of Parliament will be asked for on Monday.Albany, Man h 15\u2014Gov.Dix is writing a long letter setting toitb his reasons for not commuting Foster\u2019s sentence.\u2022 It will'be publisher! next week.Nzw Yohk, March 15\u2014Havana specials show that the insurgents were clearly vio torious in the liattle of Quackamaga.Private advices from Puerto Principe attribute the summary execution, without trial, of the iueurgent General Maria Rabulcabo, a Cuban poet and journalist of repute, to have been in revenge for the defeat of a small column which lelt Puerto Principe, underthe command of Major Mustera, not far from the city.This column was attacked and surrounded by the insurgents, the Major and one -soldier only making their escape and returning to Puerto Principe.A Washington special says :\u2014Rumors arc afloat of the revival of the project conceived by Own.Shields in 1848 for the establishment of a new state ou the Mexican side of the Rio Grande, with San Luis as the capital and Matamorafi and Tampico as the seaports.It is asserted that a force of 5,000 men can l>e easily recruited at Mobileand New Orlcans-by which the new State can maintain the in-.' dependence of Mexico, and then ask admittance into the United States.Nxw Yohk, March 15\u2014A Washington special contains the following:\u2014Secretary Boutwell, this mottling,In reply to a question as to whether ho would take his seat in (he Senate on Monday, replied that he could not say at present whether he would or no;

Sir,\u2014I have great pleasure, indeed, In learning to-day that my information respecting the alleged intention of the merchants and cove-owners of tho County of Quebec to exercise an undue pressure upon their employees at tho coming election in favor of Mr.Caron, is not correct.I can assure you that it gives me great pleasure to hear of this state of things, not so much on ray personal account in the coming contest, as chiefly because it confirms my good opinion of the justice and sense of fair play attributed to my fellow-citizens of British origin.1 may add that I have received letters to-day from several leading merchants, denying that thay had any intention to unduly influence their employees.I am, Sir, Your obdt.servt, Hiotor Farrs.Quebec, March 15, 1873.The 4|nebe play which your party so generously (l) extended to poor Richard Aylward and his heroic wife.Perhaps Mr.Fabre forgets the circumstances connected with the execution to which I|allude ; bat we, Irishmen, and the descendants of Irishmen can never forget that his prototype, the man whom he would help to place at the head of Government, was Provincial Secretary in the administration which was in power when Richard Aylward and his wife were executed at Belleville, for a crime of which they were not guilty.Were condemned to death aud executed, although thu jury had recommended them to mercy.Were ruthlessly executed although upwards of a thousand of the most respectable inhabitants of Belleville petitioned the Government of the day\ti FOB A RESPITE OF ONE SHORT \u2018 MONTH, which that government would not grant The history of tbe tragedy is almost too harrowing to be related, and with all its remembrance must bo so fresh in the minds of Aylwsrd\u2019s countrymen, that it is hardly necessary to tell Jt again.I will only touch on a few points in the melancholy transaction, for the present.Richard Aylward, with his wife and three young children, lived in or near the town of Hcllevilfe ; he had a neighbor called Munro ; the hens of the latter used to be allowed tu go into Ay!ward\u2019s wheat-field ; fiftev buying driven them awa; ( To the Editor of the Morning Chronicle.) Sir,\u2014In your issne of the 13lh Match I have had my attention drawn to a communication from the Revd.J.8.Sykes concerning the non-admission of a patient into the Jeffery Hale Hospital, and the general management ot that institution.If your correspondent had fully entered into the facts of the case, instead of alluding to them as he has done, the charge would, I think, have a diffuaent aspect from that which it apparently wears.Mr.Sykes did call on me, requesting ad mission ior a patient into the Hospital.I told him that individually I had no objection tp do so, providing it was a suitable case, but that, owing to my sense of duty to the institution, I hesitated, as two patients whom he had recommended were left on our bands, after he had been repeatedly requested to remove them, they being no longer fit objects for the charity of the Hospital, and that if such a state of matters was allowed to continue the institution would soon cease to be an hospital and become a house of refuge or a home.Each patient\u2019s certificate of admisaion contains the following clause :\u2014\u201cAnd if requested will remove the patient from the Hospital.\u201d As your correspondent did not comply with this promise I consider that I performed my duty (although much against my inclination) in not receiving a patient from one whose non-compliance with the leans of od-misHjon originated the difficulty.A« to the remark on the \u201cneed of a.good Protestant Hospital on n broader basis,\u2019\u2019 if Mr.Sykes can originate and carry on snch an undertaking I am sure that we all can wish him every success*, but as to its being on a broader basis I do not sue how one can be more so than the Jeffery Hale Hospital ic, it such a remark refers to the denouunatietM of those admitted, as out of three hundred aud sixty-four patients that have been in the Hospital two hundred and fifty-two wore Episcopalians,\u2014sect having nothing to do with admission provided the applicants are Protestants.Further on, he arrogates to himself the right of propounding to the Governors the course that they ought to pursue and the opinions they ought to hold In regard to the management of the Hospital.In doing this I think that he assumes more than he or any other person has a right to do, for according to the will of the late Jeffery Hale, the Hospital was to be \u201corganized by and subject to such regulations as the Governors shall deem most fit and proper.\u2019\u2019 Jno.Rac*y, M.D.E.Quebec, 14th March, 1873.Nsw York, March IS\u2014Latest Monetary\u2014 Gold opened at 14(, and closed at 14} to 16.Govt's dull and steady all day, with but little or no change In yrteea.State bonds very quiet.Rtock* opened slightty firmer than at close last night.Closlnx prices\u2014*31 reg, 116);
