Bellingham, Ireland, resigning his seat for Argenteuil, snd a subsequent cablegram, dated 19th November, withdrawing such resignation, and asking if, under the circnmstances, be coaid retain bis seat ?The Speaker said he might remark that the resignation was not attested by any witnesses, and he would therefore have the qu> stion to the decieion of the HouS'*.Hon.Mr.ANGERS said, unless the House was prepared to decide the matter at once, the proper thing to do was to refer it to the Committee on Privileges and Elections.Mr.JOLY asked what was the opinion of the few officers of the Crown on the oubject ?Hon.Mr.ANGERS said, according to his interpretation of the independence of Parliament Act, Mr.RellicgUsm\u2019s resignation was not conformable to law.Moreover, under the particular circumstance», it was evident that when Mr.Bellingham forwarded this resignation, he was laboring under the impression that he coaid not return to Canada in time, and was therefore very properly desirous that Argenteail should not be deprived an old member, and with a great deal more ease, grace and facility than is usually encountered in new beginners on Ihe floor of Parliament.He said substantially.\u2014\u201cIt is al ways a difficult task for a young member to move the Addi?0 in reply to the epeech from the Throne, and f: requires a certain amount of audacity do do so after tho more experienced bands to which the discharge of the same delicate doty has been ccmmitfed in the past, one of whom is to-day an adviser pf His Honor the Lieutenant-Governor.We hope that the health of the dlstingalshed gentleman, who n presents ip par Province the so deeply respected authority of England will improve promptly andatbat he may be en abled to reseme the functions which he discharges with so much eclat.We have always bpd over us statesmen of mark, and mast recogniae the fs^t that our present administrators will bear favorable copiparltop with their predecessors, for, by means of in fluence and abilities, they have eerted our credit upon the London market.Notwithstanding the opposition of the London T\\met, wLoeu influence with English capitalists is acknowledged, onr lean was negotiated st par, which is a great suceras, yrhen all the obstacles to be surmounted are takep into account.The Timee did not hesitate to debase its colqmns and to prostitute them by filling them vitfr calumnies against a British colony, whose never been questioned.Mr.Potter himself the tcol of the foes of the Province and lift no stone untornid to wreck our hopes and projects, bnt onr Treasurer was fortunately Bocctssial in oyerepming such sinister obstacles and onr loan was Closed »t a figure which plact s the Province of Quebec opoa the money market In a meet honorable position.Let us congratulate ourselves therefore in\tsncceedrd in dissipating pré- judice to England and to have saved the present while assuring the fptpje He hoped that this financial success ybpld satisfy the Opposition that the consideration which the Government merited was extended to it abroad, for if be n called the fact cor icctly, it bad been said during a past session, in regard to the Joan negotiated at 95, that the Provit.ce bad hod the gepd luck of getting it off its hands before the Tanneries Scandal was brought to light.Now, if this were really tbecase, we should have beta the vic< tim* °f the reputations of some of our public men, We h*d to-day the proof that, if the numbers of the Cabinet have not an excellent reputation, then the members of the Opposition were not likely to be very highly appreciated in London.The Government had promised to bring in a bill for the re-organization of the civil service.This measure would, doubtless, be most acceptable, as it was only j4«t that the at rvices of public employee» thould be well pewardid in their own and the interest of the province.This bill would, in ail probability, provide for a iqptrepnua tton fund, securing for those who had worked ont their youth and middle age in the service of the conntry upon modest salaries, a provision for their declining years.With respect tp tjie financial crisis, alluded to in the .Speech, he (bought the remedy for the evil, which affected alike thp capitalist and the trader, os well os the humblest mechanic, was not in their hands, as they could not re: adjust the tariff established in defiance of the strong rtmonstrances of (be Industries of the country.The crisis was not only popffntd to the citif s snd towns ; but it had extended to the rural districts, entailirg and enhancing the corse of usury everywhere, forcing many cf Ihtir fellow countrymen to ffee the country and seek for new means of subeist-pnee abroad.It was not, however, by moaning or gypanfeg over the misfortune that they were likely to p^mrdy it.The hoar of action had arrived, and if they really desired to work oat that remedy, they would baye to begin by attracting foreign capital into the Province and encouraging the construction of the railways upon which the prosperous future of that Province depends.The GoV\u2018 vernment understood this troth; it bad alrea- reference to the reor-gauizstion of the civil service.This question hod be.-n brought up last Scsrion, and he would say now, as he had said then, that he would find the occasion to express his senti-pepts before the Government should adopt measures for the création of a auperaonuation fund.While promising them bis support, he hoped that they would not draw np a law, inspired by the same principle as that in-trodneed into the Dominion Parliament rome years back by Sir Francis Hincks, and which he (M.J.) bad vigorously opposed.It had beep dpclorefj at (ha( tipjo (bat t)>!s meuqpe was sabmitted in the interest of the Government, in order to spare it from the solicitations of old civil servants In want.He trusted that a different sentiment would animate his honorable fylends pn jblp (cession and that they would folely keep in vléw the Interest ol thejr employees.By the law adopted at Ottawa, the employee was obliged to subscribe a certain sum and, on leaving the public service, he became entitled to a pension in proportion to the number of bis payments.Should he die, these sums were wholly lost to bis representatives.This measure was cruel, iniquitous and prejudicial to the public interests.If this Government would present a All kinds of Sheet Iron, Tin and Plumbing Work a( moderate prices.Ship\u2019s Main Bilge, Tank and Head Pompa made and repaired.JOHN HUNTER, 12,

engine arrived on the ground in three and one half minutes.A line of hose, 400 feet in length, was carried over the wall in rear * f the Court House, and brought up Do Brebcsuf to St Penis at., Cape, and a fine stream of water thrown throqgh an inch noasle in nine and one half minutes.Two streams of one Inch each were next played, the water reaching (allowing for grade of hill) to a height of 116 feet.A hose was attached to a hydrant on St.Denis street, but the engine was working thirty-eight minutes before \u2022 drop of water could be obtained from the water works | and then on}y a very weak stream was thrown from a { inch noasle.The engine, while throwing the two streams, was worked op to a steam pressure of 128 lbs.the water gauge marking the same figures.The lift of water was ¦boot sjx feet, but the machine hafl on twenty feet of «action boss.After working an boqr and twenty-six minutas the steamer vm brought back to No.1 Station, every one present being perfectly satisfied with tbe re-suit of the test.Engineer Ohaumet was in charge daring the trial.Sstubdat\u2019s Pafbb Host came off through all the drifily rain with great eclat, thanks to Mr.Henry Sharpies, who laid the paper over a splendid country of about three miles in extent, ou each ride of the St.Foy IJoad, starring and finishing in the neighborhood of his own residence.Such terrific jumping as was done on this occasion has never before been witnessed in the vicinity of Quebec, snd as every fence, ditch and hedge were visible from the road the greatest possible pr-ilses were heaped upon the desperately fearless riders, such as Lieut.Percy Dean, Mr.C.V.M.Temple, Mr.Henry Shtrples, his brother Cbailey, Messrs.Richard and W.Toaer, Mr.Collins, Mr.Pk.OlampbpI}, Mr.E.Quinn, Mr.McCorkell, jr., and

conscienoiously adhered to, which unfortunately ta not always the case, and gonr Suent ly very unpleasant and annoying to gentlemen who take the trouble to obtain permission from the farmers and
