telegraphing would be vary expensive, and all be read in tbs British Post Office.1 Sir E.Thornton thought the British Government wished to avoid the appointment by the Austrian Minister.The Secretary concludes by saying that the efforts of the Government to carry into excontiou fh*» provisions of the 23cd article had hitherto foiled from no fault or negligence on 'ta part.The President earnestly hopes the two Govemmsnts may yet agree upon a third Commissioner ; to secure thU he is willing to walvs any quest ion as to the time of joint nomination, or ask the respective efforts of the two Governments in this respect.Sir E.Thornton to Secretary Fish, Oot.4tb, says : Hu Majesty\u2019s Government could not be accused of negligence, any more than the United B;ates.On Oct.24th Sir E.Thornton says : \u2014\u201cThe suggestion that, although three Pfionih» have expired, the two Governments might still agree upon a third Commissioner appears to Her Majesty\u2019s Government to be wholly inconsistent with the letter of the treaty, that if a third Commissioner shonid nog bave be jn named within three months ?ka aomina-ion shonid rest with the Austrian representative.Earl Granville has (Urected the New York State Prison, where he owes two and a half years.A Richmond, Ya, despatch states thst a boat, with Mr.McFadden, two sons, Mr.Moody and a colored man, wss wrecked in the James River on the night of the 18tb.All were lost.Considerabl) excitement is (reported In Broomsbury, Pa, over the announcement that Tnlley, McHugh and Hester, under sentence (f death for murder, will be hang, as the Board of Pardons has refused to commute the sentence or pardon them.The Bullion Silver Mining Company of Colorado has been sold by the referee for $3.It was once prospérons.Tbe Tribune\u2019» Washington special says a member ot tbe Senate Finance Committee stated that, if he were a business man, be shonid act as on the belief that the Tariff Bill will not become a law, that the Resumption Act will not be repealed, and that no Sliver Bullion Certificate Bill will pass.George Wallace and his brother, of Lon-dear Ron, near Wheeling, W.Va.f have been arrested for the murder of Wallace\u2019s wife and infant and tbe ontraging and mnrder of Mies Church, a niece of Mrs.Wsllace, at midnight.A crowd surrounds the house where the inquest is being held, with a rope and cries of \u201cLynch them.\u201d A heavy gnard stands over the prisoners.The Great Shoahonees Remedy Is an Indian vegetable con»pound, oompoaed of tbe Joioes of a variety of remarkable medicinal plants and herbs;

and the conclusion arrived at without any difficulty is that the ex-ministers and their friends have raised a false issue, upon which they are making an appeal to the people, and have cited passages from the speeches and writings of constitutional authorities, that have no application whatever to the particular transaction that brought about the dismissal of the Provincial Ministers.As an instance of the efforts made by Mr.Chapleau to raise false issues upon the caw, it will suffice to mark his reply to the Lieut.\u2022governor\u2019s complaint that the Railway Bill had not been submitted to him.He proceeded to state that the answer was taken to Spencer Wood by the Premier.It was not a denial of the fact of non-consultation, however, but «was to the effect that the Railway Act was justified by the refusal of the muni-oipalitiea to pay their subscriptions.\u201d Now this attempt at justification of the measure is no reply to the Iieut.-Gov-ernor\u2019s complaint of non-consultation, but a mere atiempt to shirk the real question at issue.If the ex-ministers had been able to deny the statement of the LieuL-Governor, and to assert that before introducing the Railway Bill they had submitted it to His Honor and obtained his sanction to the introduction, they would have been free from blame so far as this particular matter is concerned, but even then,\u2014and we now quote the words of the respected statesman, Sir Francis Hincks,\u2014«it would not have been unconstitutional for the Lieut.-Gov-ernor to have changed his mind, if, dur* ing the course of the discussions in the Legislature, or from indications of public opinion throughout the Province, he had become convinced that the measure was an unwise one.\u201d There is ^another P°r\" tion of Mr.Chapleau\u2019s speech, which is almost too ridiculous to admit of argu* ment.Speaking ot the refusal of His Honor to sanction the Railway Bill, the boo.gentleman asserts that the DeBou-cherville Government never advised His Excellency on the subject, for the very simple reason that they were dismissed before they had the opportunity of doing so, and further that if it had the opportunity, the DeBoucherville Government would have advised His Excellency to re fer the sanction of the law in question to the Governor-General, or in other words, that had they 'obtained by some means or other, His Honor\u2019s permission to intro, duce this important and high-Rinded measure, the ex Ministers, after having forced it by a brute majority through both Houses, would .have finally abandoned it.It would be the very height of absurdity to accept this assertion, and to suppose for a moment that a Government who never brooked any restraint would advise the Crown to cause the inference that their advice had not been taken, by requesting it to disallow the most important measure introduced and passed by it ; since reservation is a mere form of disallowance equivalent to the English form, the King or Queen «will consider\u201d the bill The Montreal Gazette, not unnaturally, expresses the opinion-ibat the authorities cited by Mr.Chapleau are simyly unanswerable.We shall therefore venture to place before our readers a few extracts taken by the Journal oj Commerce from Todd's « Parliamentary Government,\u201d which directly bear on the point really at issue, namely, the right of the Crown, or its representative exercising for the time its prerogatives, to full consultation on all matters, whether legislative or execu live.The following are some of the ex tracts in question :\u2014 \u201cSo soon as any particular project or line of policy has been agreed to, with a view either to legislative or administrative action, it becomes the duty of the Premier, as the minister in whom the Crown has placed the constitutional oon fid en ce, to take the royal pleasure thereupon, and to afford his Sovereign an op portunity for the exercise of that const! tution&l criticism in all departments of the State, which is the right and duty of the Crown, and which in its operation is .confessedly most salutary and efficacious.?neglect of this rule by Mr.Pitt, when, in the year 1800, his colleagues had coincided with him as to the expediency of a certain concession to the claims of the Roman Catholics, led to his loss of office, and to the withdrawal of the Kmg\u2019s confidence from the ministry.\u201d \u2022 \u2022 \u2022 \u2022 \u2022 \u201cIt may seem difficult to determine in every instance precisely what matters ought to receive the assent of the Crown beforeban i, and what might be properly undertaken at the discretion and upon the responsibility of the several heads of executive departments.But this much at any rate is clear, that no important acts of government which would commit the Crown to a definite action or line of policy, which had not already received the royal approbation, should be under taken without the previous sanction ot the Sovereign.\u201d \u2022 \u2022 \u2022 \u2022 \u2022 \u201cIn all his communications with the Sovereign the Prime Minister is bound to afford the most frank and explicit information in regard to measures agreed upon by the Cabmet and submitted for the royal sanction.And it is not merely th^ right, but the duty, of the Sovereign to exercise his judgment in 'the advice they may tender to him.If the Sovereign should not approve of the advice of his ministers upon any particular measure tfiey have then to choose whether they will abandon that measure or tender their resignation.Under such circum-»minwi«r is bound either to obey the direction of the Crown, or to leave to the Crown that full liberty which the Crown must possess of no longer continuing that minister in office, in order to supply the Crown with adequate means for exercising an independent judgment upon all affairs of state provision has been made by constitutional practice for the regular transmission to the Sovereign, ocdinarily through the Prime Mmister, or else through other official channels, ot \u2022very despatch, report, or other paper, which it is material should be perused i by the Sovereign, or which may be of use to enable the Sovereign to decide upon the merits of any measure submitted to him by ministers.\u201d \u2022 \u2022 \u2022 \u2022 \u2022 \u201cThe Queen requires, first, that Lord Palm srston will distinctly state what he proposes in a given case in order that the Queen may know as distinctly to what she is giving her royal sanction.Secondly, having once given her sanction to a measure that it be not arbitrarily altered or modified by the minister.Such an act she must consider as failing in sincerity towards the Crown, and justly to be visited by the exercise of her constitutional right of dismissing that minister.She expects to be kept informed of what passes between him and the foreign minister before important decisions are taken based upon that intercourse ; to receive the foreign despatches in good time, and to have the drafts for her approval sent to her in sufficient time to make herself acquainted with their contents before they must be sent off.\u201d This memorandum having been communicated to Lord Palmerston, he wrote to the Pre mier, stating that he had taken a copy of it and would not fail to attend to the directions it contained.The last extract» specially interesting, because it was read by Lord John Russell in the House of Commons on the occasion of the subsequent dismissal of Lord Palmerston, and » said by the auther of the Life of the Prinoe Consort to have embarrassed Lord Palmerston so much that he quite broke down in his defence.It is to be observed, that the actual cause of Lord Palmerston\u2019s dismissal was the expression of an opinion, in conversation with the French Ambassador, favorable to the coup d' etat of Louis Napoleou, although the Government had, with the sanction of the Crown, decided on a posi tion of neutrality.Lord Palmerston contended, and not without plausibility, that conversations were wholly non-committal, and that it was neither possible nor desirable to avoid discussion of the kind The case is interesting as showing how rigid are the rules in England as to frank and full communication on the part of Ministers with the Crown.We shall, in addition to the very clear exposition of constitutional practice in Todd, cite from him the authority of English statesmen of high rank, and of opposite politics on the question at issue.In Lord Grey's essay on Parliamentary Government, he says :\u2014 \u201cThere is a further safeguard against abuse in its being requisite that the Ministers ot the Crown should obtain its direct sanction for all their most import ant measures.The Crown, it is true, seldom refuses to act upon the advice deliberately pressed upon it by its servants, nor could it do so frequently without creating great inconvenience.But the Sovereigns of this country may, and generally have exercised much influence over the conduct of the Government ; and m extreme cases the power of the Crown to refuse its consent to what is proposed by its servants may be used with ihe greatest benefit to the nation.A re fusai on the part of the Sovereign to sanction measures which the Ministers persist in recommending as indupensable is indeed a legitimate ground for their resignation, and if the question which leads (o this is one on which they have the support of public opinion, they must in the end prevail.But if this high power is exercised with wisdom, and is reserved for great emergencies, the Crown may generally calculate on the support of the nation in refusing to sanction measures improperly pressed upon it by its Ministers, especially where the measures so urged involve an abuse of the royal authority for their own party objects.\u201d We shall now quote a passage from a speech of the late Lord Derby in hu plaoe in Parliament:\u2014 \u201cThe people of this country are under a great mistake if they suppose that the Sovereign does not exercise a real salu tary and decided ^influence over the councils and government of the country.T he Sovereign is not the mere automaton or puppet of the government of the day She exercises a beneficial influence and control over the affairs of the State ; and it is the duty of the Minister, for the time being, in submitting any proposition for the assent of Her Majesty, to give satisfactory reasons that such pro positions are called for by public polioy and justified by the public interests.\u201d There can be no necessity for multiplying authorities on a point on which there is no difference of opinion among English statesmen.There seems little reason to doubt, however, that from their ignorance of constitutional law, and the entire oon currence of opinion of former Lieutenant-Governors of this Province and the Ministers of the Crown, the members of the DeBoucherville Government committed the grave constitutional errer of ignoring the Lieutenant-Governor altogether.This view » strongly supported by the statement made in the House by the ex-Attorney-General, that the Governors antecedent to Lieutenant-Governor Le tellier, had entrusted Ministers with blanks to till in according to their wishes.One word more.Had the ex-Ministers consulted the Lieutenant-Governor or the Railway Bill, as the authorities quot ed above show I hat they were in duty bound to do, it is clear that with his strong opinion that the bill was \u201ccontrary to the principles of law and justice,\u201d His Honor would have refused h» consent to its introduction, upon which action the Minutera would have been bound, constitutionally, to have abandoned their bill or to have resigned.Political Note*.The National says that Mr.Mollear Is msetiog with immense enthusiasm in bis county, and we learn that bis adversary Is greeted in Iberville, as in Quebec, with cries of \u201cPas d'Thibanlt.\u201d It is said that the triumph of Mr.P.Tremblay, in Charlevoix, over Mr.Uanthler, is certain.A telegram from Ottawa says :\u2014\u201cIt is reported here on gioi authority that Sir ?.T.Galt has informed Mr.Bachaod, Provincial Treasurer in the new Quebec Cabinet, that he is not unprepared to visit the Eastern Townships to give his support to Mr.Joly in the approaching Provincial elections.He is reported as having joined with Sir Francis Hincks and the majority of right-thinking people at Montreal in condemnation of the policy pursued by the late Provincial Govern-ent.\" It ts stated that it is the intention of Dr.Stansfield to present himself as a candidate for the Connty of Quebec.It is rumored that D.C.Thornton, Esq , ot this city, will oppose Dr.Rlnlret in Quebec Centre.Hon.Alexander Chauveau, the Bollcitor-General, and Hon.P.Bachaod, Provincial Treasurer, arrived in town yesterday morning.Mr.Bachand is staying at the Albieu Hotel.It is rumored here that Mr.F.X.Lemieux advocate, will contest the County of Bona-venture with Mr.Tarte.Mr.George Simpson, of St.Andrews, has been selected os tbe Conservative candidate for tbe County of Argenteuil.Mr.Simpeon is the proprietor of a large tannery in St.Andrews, but will certainly he In a minority in every parish in the county but his own, if opposed by Mr.Bellingham.A large public meeting of electors was held In the Market Hall of St.Hyacinthe on Wednesday, under (be presidency of Mayor Des ssulles.Hon.Mr.Bachaud made a long and able speech, which was received with Immense enthusiasm.Hon.Mr.De la Bruere spoke on tbe Conservative ëide, and was ably replied to by Mr.Mercier.Judging by the tone of the meeting os described, opposition to tbe Provincial Treasurer will be useless.' On Thursday uight, tbe electors of St.Petronllle, lelo of Orleans, were addressed by Mr.Cbae.Laogulter and his friends, their ¦poaches being very well received, and appearing to make a favorable impression.Yes-terday morning, Mr.Charles Langeller toft for St.b ereol in search of Hon.Mr.Angers!

he thought they should be.The Hon.D.Christie said that he was glad the questiou bad been mooted.Notwithstanding outside rumors as to thu manner in which the money wa* expended, he could assure the Council that tbe greatest care and judgment was exorcised in this particular, and ho gave tbe lumore a most unqualified denial.The report was adopted.The Hou.Mr.Christie moved, seconded by Mr.Bowell, that in view of encoqragtog the studeuts at the Veterinary Collige in the etndy of anatomy, two silver medals be annually awarded by the Association to the studeuts who pass the beat examination iu that particular branch of science.The resolution was carried.The name of Mr.Wilson was, on motion, added to the Executive Committee.Mr.Hopkins said he wished to call the attention of tbe Council to a matter which waa closely allied to tbe dairy interest ; he thought that greater encouragement in the shape of prizes, to bj competed for at the ensuing exhibition should bo given.In the county he came from, no less than $64,000 had been received from Eugland for cheese alone, and the trade In dairy product! in Canada was assuming very largo aud important dimensions.Ho thought that tho Western aud Eastern Asso ciations would give $500 each, and If (bo Agricultural and Arts Association would give a like sum, ap excellent exhibition could bo Blade.Ho orgued the importance of holding such an exhibition this yearj as tbe Froviu-citti fair was to be held at Toronto, being central position, the dairy men would be only too glad to compete.He did not say that such an exhibition should be held annually \u2022 if it took place, say every five year>, it would still eucouraço dairy men.Professor Beil supported the idea of Mr.Hopkins, but he wee only afraid that the funds of the Eastern Association would scarcely bear the call upjn its finances : but be, as a member of it, would give the project heartily his support, and he could vouch for Mr.Bswell's corporation.Mr.Hopkins said the $500 asked from tbe Agrl-cultural and Arts Association was in addition to^what they already gave in priées.' So far as tbe funds of tho Eastern Associai ion wore concerned, he thought that It would receive from the Guvornmeut this year $1 20Û instead of $1,000.Professor fJell said that re moved a gr^f deal of the doubt.Mr.White said that the graut of $600 would only be an increase of $1,500.Mr.Hopkins laid great stress upon the point of giving prizes to the makers of cheese, which was best adapted for exportation acd would briug the best prices in the English market.Mr.McOrae moved seconded by Mr.Bowell, that tbe offer from tbe Dairymen\u2019s Association of Western Ontario, through their President, Mr.Hopkins, of $500 for a special prize at our next exbibi-tion, provided the Eistcm Association supplement it by a similar grant, be received aud the Secretary be requested to communi-oate with tbe Eaa'.orn Dairymen\u2019s Aesocia-tlon, and report the reply at the next meeting of this Board.\u2014L\u2019arrled.A discussion then took place as to tbs dale upon which the Executive Committee should meet to re.vise the prize list ; finally, it was decided to leave tbe date to be fixed by tbe President, but the day to lie soon after Parliament breaks up, aud If possible, not to be later than the 16th May.It was moved by Mr.Bowell, seconded by Mr.Elotz, that tbe Secretary be instructed tj advertise in the ueud manner for the printing of prize lists, and other printing necessary for tho Association for the year 1878.\u2014Carried.A pamphlet en-tltled,\u201cA Narrative of a Journey to Manitoba,\u201d and which coutaios an analysis of the soil of that Province, was ordered to be lyled with the Secretary, so that the latter might be io a position to answer any inquiries which might be put to him on tho subject.Mr.Young M.P., brought up the question of the registration and certifying of animals in the Herd Book and the fees charged therefor.He said that several breeders had complained about the charge as beiug too high ; be was io favor of rescinding the 25 cents for certificates, unless an extra one is required.He moved, seconded by Mr.Graham, a resolution to that effect.The resolution was lost by 7 yeas to 11 nays.Tho Council then adjourned.This afternoon tbe Hon.James S oad aud Mr.J.M.Currier, M.P., entertained tbe members of tbe Association at luuch in the Senate.This afternoon, a four-year-old boy of 3.Laporte, Rideau street, was run over by a farmer\u2019s wagon and received, probably, fatal injuries.KeMoluttong.At a meeting ot the Executive of the Irish Ca\u2019bolic Union, held in their rooms on the 21st instant.It was moved and carried anani-mously that,\u2014 \"Whereas, the idea has gone abroad that (Tlie Ftsbery Award.The \u201cTimes\u201d on American Repudia-tora.{Special by Cable to the Globe ) London, March 29\u2014A Times\u2019 editorial on the Fisheries award says It Is unfortunate for the good fame of the States that at a moment when the financial policy of Congress has awakened grave bus-picions and anxieties in Europe, some American politicians of considerable importance and notoriety display another phase of the repudiating spirit in opposing tbe payment of the award.The reckless language of Mr.Blaine and General Butler is not only throwing discredit on tho country, but damaging the system of settling International disputes by arbitration.No country henceforward will be willing to refer claims to arbitration if tho decision of the arbitrators is liable to be challenged by the unsuccessful party.This is as plain ns that Amerioau credit will be severely shaken if thiy refuse to abide by the award.It will be' reasonably argued that tbo Government which seeks to evade the consequence of a reference to a tribunal, chosen with its full knowledge and free consent, io not likely to be scrupulous in main taining the obligation of inconvenient contracts with foreign creditors.It would be as unwise as undignified for the States to provoke the indignation of England and all the civilized world by a refusal to pay an indisputable claim.Tbe questions considered by the Commission are such that only those who mastered the whole case, perhaps only those present throughout the whole enquiry, have any claim to pronounce an opinion.The American case put before tbe Commissioners was most abiy, completely and fully heard.We toke it tor granted, therefore, that the amouut of the award Is reasonable.If it seemed to the Americans unduly large self-respect and a regard for the principles of ar bitration ought to have restrained the expressions of impatience.The attempts at evasion and the attacks upon the impartiality of M.Delfosse are of a piece with the spirit of chicane which his attempted to force an interpretation of an unanimoas award.We hope and believe that Mr.Blaine will not be able to get the Ooagress of his countrymen to support him In a refusal to pay the award, and to stamp the American policy with the doable aiscre lit of meanness and trickiness.A despatch from Gibraltar yesterday says: \u2014Boynton returned here after swimming across tbe Sttaits to Tangier, being seventeen hours making the trip across.He was nearly swept out to sea by high waves aud spring tides.IlÉT\", t for this tali rjO-DAY Wa ARK OFFERING A CHOICE end selection ot New Fancy Goods, arrived by last steamer \u2022« Sarmatlan.\u201d vl*.Trtmmel Bonnets and Hats.New Shades in Ribbons, Feathers, Flowers, Lace Goods and Parasols.Bonusl\u2019s A Gnlust\u2019s Black Groa Grain Bilks.Colorad Silks in all the newest shades Newest Trimmings and Bittons to match Dresa uoods, Black Grenadines an 1 French Merlnrs.Laoe and Moslln Outlalns and Lisse Frlffings.Damask Table Cloths and Napkins.Towellings, Linen Sheetings and Drapers.Mrs.Turner\u2019s atdomlnal Corsets and Newest Shapes In French Wove Corsets.An extensive assortment of New Coatings, Trowserlogfor Gentlemen's wear, all Newest Patterns and Styles.All orders for Gentl emeu's Garments will be executed la flrsLolazs style and with promptness.Gentlemen\u2019s New Spring Overcoats and Tweed Suits in Stock, ont and made on the premises, all at right prices.5 PEtt CENT.DISCOUNT on all purchases above $3 for Cash GLOVER, FRY& Co March 18, 1878.SCOTCH CAPS FROM 50 cents T O SX.2S.SIMONS & FOULDS, Fabrique Street.March 19, 1878.HIGHEST PRIZE MEDAL.VaMUVaOTDBKD ¦XPBK8S1.V FOB J.8.ULIBERTE, CM CN CO CO CO SIGN OF THE MOOSE.UST RECEIVED, by tbe la»t Steamer from the best English, French and American mannfactnrere, comprising The Heel Silks and Felts fer dents aud Bojs.SPECIAL SIZES FOR LARGE HEADS t SILK HATS MADE TO ORDER !

Committee on Banking and Commerce, rejecting the bill respecting La Banque Jacques Cartier.Mr.MACKENZIE moved that when the House adjourns it stands adjoum-tlll Tuesday, Monday being a holiday.Mr.H4GGART introduced a bill to amend the Controverted Election Act lie explained U was to provide for tbe return of money paid Into the Election Court by way of seen-rity, when such petitions were rejected.Mr.HOLTON said that the bill being ap-parently to meet a particular case, ought to bo introduced as a private bill.Mr.HAGGABT said he bad consulted with tha Premier, who had advised this course.Mr.MACKENZIE said that was in a private conversation.Mr.CARTWRIGHT moved that this House on Tuesday resolve itself into a Committee to consider a resolution to provide for tbe appointment of an officer called tbe Auditor-General of Canada.\u2014Resolved\u2014That it is expedient to appoint an officer to be called Auditor-General of Canada ; salary not to exceed $3,200 per annum.Mr.MITCHELL hop.d that this measure was not to legislate out of office his honorable friend, the Receiver-General.On motion of Mr.LAURIER, the House went into Committee on the resolution that it is expedient ro repeal the duty of Customs Imposed on malt imported Into Canada by Act 4 Vio.Chap 11, sec.2, and to provida that British and foreign malt when imported into Canada shall be immediately placed in a suitable bonded warehouse, provi led it be at tbe cost of the importer and approved as suitable for the purpose by a duly authorised revenue officer, and bein , so warehoused shall be bonded n der tbe excise regulations that are In force in respect to the malt made in Canada, and shall be subject to tbe same duty os the malt made la Cantda.He explained that the im-poitatlon dalles on foreign malt wss merely nominal, and parties interested had petitioned the Government to have it removed.The excise provisions were to guard against illicit distillation.Canada exported a large qnan tity of molt to the United States, but, accord-ding to the revenue returns, Imported none, Canadian barley beieg much superior to that in the United States.He stated the mslsters believed the duty waoan impediment In their way, and as there had been no revenue derived from it tbo Government, whose policy was a revenue tariff, had deemed it expedient to abolish it.Mr.MASSON remarked, upon the anomaly, that this duty had been increased last year, while this year it was deemed expedient to abolish it.Mr.CARTWRIGHT said It was the work of the people.The Government had often to deal with foolish people, and there being no revenue derived from this imposition, the Government had abolished it, which, indeed, was a matter cf convenience to the Excise Department.Moreover, if the dnty continued, the Americans would use it as an argument in favor of placing increased dalles on Canadian milt., Mr.MITCHELL opposed the proposal.He did not believe that laws shoald be passed ¦imply for tbo convenience of any department.Mort over, though he did not altogether favor retaliatory tariffs, he thonght the Americans sbonld be taught that we were not disposed to allow them to tax 00 without defendiog ourselves.Mr.HOLTON agreed with tha remarks of the Finance Minister, believing tbe proposal to be in the Interest of the Canadian agricnl-tnris\u2019s.Dr.TUPPER drew the attention of the Minister of Inland Revenue to the dlfflcolty In which be had placed himself by not frankly giving his views to tbe Honse in Introducing the proposal.He considered the proposition eminently protective, for protection was afforde 1 equally as much by removing duties as by imposing them.Tbe policy was undoubtedly opposed to the policy ot lost year.Mr.HOLTON\u2014We learn wisdom by experience.Dr.TUPPER hoped the Government would continue to learn wisdom.This policy was most diometrioally opposed to the policy of last year.Gentlemen on his side of the Honse had again and again called the fittention of the Government to the fact that we were under the vigilant sumlliaoce of the United States.The Government had often said that we were too insignificant to be noticed by the United States.But this was a practical exemplification of tbe manner in which the Government had changed their views on this point.The Minister of Inland R.vonue shoald hare admitted that this malt duty was being used as a lever by the mslsters of tbe United Btatot to Indnce Congress to levy a similar duty and hence that it would have been a wise act to reduce it.It was a practical illustiation of the fact that tbe United States were not unmindful of our policy, and if we could reduce in one direction we could do so in another.If the United States were met in this direction by a policy corresponding to their own, they would undoubtedly change.Tbe proposal of the Minister of Inland Revenue was equally as t^uch a protect!# j as an increase of duties in this direction.This was a case in which there was no competition, as opposed to tbo other cas:*, in which our industries were being swamped by importa-tioas, which had to be met by tbe imposition of duties.This showed that acts of Parliament could foster industries, and it was creditable to the Government and the member tor Chateauguay to admit that they could learn by experience and were willing to profit by it.Mr.GIBBS (Sooth Ontario) had not beea surprised that the malutors had asked for the protection which was now to be afforded.At a meeting of malsters, hold at Buffalo, it was admitted that for tbe first time Canada had been able sneersifully to export malt to the United States cheaper than It could be produced there.The malsters at Buff do bad said that Canada could enter malt into the United States at 10 cts.a bushel.Tbe other J day the member for South* Waterloo had stated that it was the intention cf the Government to reduce the doty on milt.Let the Government go on in the tame direction, taking off duties or p siting them on when necessary.The expressed intention of the Canadian Government to refnqve the duty on palt Lad been sufficient to arrest the imposition of duties by the American Government, so that It now appeared Canada for years to come would be entitled to export malt to the United States Lee of duty.Mr.YOUNG contended that the speeches of gentlemen opposite were a complete vindication of the policy of tbe Gover ment generally, for what noa equally true In respect to one was equally Une with regard to the other.Tbe Qanadian Government took the position that so long as we djd not adopt a discriminating policy, so long ' would the United States abstain from.' doing so.He explained that the dnty put on last year as being one of merely departmental convenience, and its abolition placed the Government policy in this direction on the same footing os its general fiscal course.He contended that no more fatal policy to Canadian interests oonld be adopted than the policy which the gentlemen opposite generally advocated.The clrcamstances of this case were a powerful argument against tho policy of dlscriminaÜLg duties.Mr.DYMOND congratulated the Opposition on the hopeful symptoms that were evident on the other side.The speech of the member for Cumberland waa a right-abont-face, and a skilful retirement to tbe free trade policy, which be bad formerly advocated.If the bon.gentlemen would only continne to support tbe Government in voting agkinkt the dalles on articles from which no revenue was derived, the Ministerialists would not complain if they were laboring under false colours.The right hon.number for Kingston had said that bis policy was, we would do to tbe Americana what they would do to us, and in views of to-day\u2019s declarations it was manifest that be was deserted by friends and stood alone with his retaliatory tariff.Dr.ORTON thought he showed how the QoyejrnmeDt could benefit oar farmers far more than by a redaction of this dqty.For ten years Canada had been awaiting to see the Americans follow in thetr noble policy of free trade.Lost year 46,000 bushels of malt were brought Into Canada, which amonnt would be iucreaaed by the removal of our duty, while seeing tbat Canada was able to compete with them, tbe American malsters would secure a prohibitory duty from their our Government.He showed how It was possible to make irom Indian corn equally as strong a# extract as from malt, and this American and Canadian brewers would alike use.He therefore held that Canada ought In the interest oi our barley growers to impose a duty upon American corn.Mr.PLATT said it was not to be expected ihe United Btates would legislate In favor of Canada, and so soon as they found that Coda dian malt stood in their way would impose prohibitory duties.He advocated the exclu sion of the American for the reasons given by the member for Centre Wellington, as not only would it stanl in the way of Canadian barley growers, but tbe consumer would get a worse article oif beer.Mr.BffOHEfiTER said tbe Government wonld not have faken the cooxse they had done had it not been that they feared the action of the United States Government.He was glad they had changed (heir course aud had adopted the policy advocated by the gentlemen on bis side.Blr JOHN MACDONALD said the taunts ef tbe member for Waterloo came with bad grace from gentlemen who wore nit probe-lionists bet free traders.Their turn a'out reminded him of the story of the Kimr ot France, who, with 10,000 m-ro, march'd up the hill and then marched down again.The Miuistor oi Finance bod lost year eaid the price of Hoar was regulated by the price oi flour in Europe.Their policy now contra dieted their pretension that the consumer paid tbe dnty.The guutlomon on bis side bad advocated a policy that would foster our indastrlrs.He concurred with tbo member fur Cumberlaud that protection was secured os much by the reduction as by the impost tton of duties ; our present tariff was unscien tide and ill-advised, and was calculated to crush rather than to foster our industries What be advocated was a re-adjustment of tariff In this direction, and a policy of this kind was what tbe supporters of the Govern ment had rejected, but now we bad four cf them asking fjr protection to our flour and rye, and we, doubtless, should have others of their supporters proposing meetings of want of confidence iu the Government with respect Yo their policy iu regard to others of oar products.Mr.HIGGINBOTHAM held that speeches made by the member for Cumberland and bis friends this evening, were an admission that this so-iulled national policy was an utter failure.Mr.BUNSTKR contrasted tbe proposal of the Minister of Iniaad Revenue with the policy ot the Government last session, and advised the withdrawal of the resolution.Mr.MACKENZIE said In one sense Canada had neither free trade nor protection, but a revenue tariff.Personally, he was a free trader, bnt thereby he did not admit that he was acting to the disadvantage of Canada.He believed tho policy of tbe member for Kingston to be a pditical ruse, an Impossibility to carry out.He had not, iu two speeches, tgreed as to what policy be woo'd pursue.In one speech he advocated a retalia tory policy, in another a readjustment of tbe tariff.His tariff and that of hia friends had been In whatever direction tbe weather-cock pointed.He claimed that tbe policy oi h'.s Cabinet had been consistent.After some remarks from Mr.Pope, Queens, Tho Honse wont into Committee on the Resolution.Dr.TUPPER said the membar for North York had repeated his statements with regard to him.He had again to-day endeavored to coovioce the House tbat the Opposition were utterly Insincere and had no intention of carrying out when in power the protection policy now professed.He defined tbe attitude of tbe Opposition on the question as opposed to the free trade position of tbe Government.If their party was honest and believed the Opposition policy was calculated to improve tbo conotry, they would strive to show that and drop the practice of trying to demonstrate^the insincerity of Ihe views ol the Opposition ; bnt the Ministers knew that the Opposition policy was accept-able to tae country and likely to retail to its advantage.He defended his former free trade views as suit d to the position of N.8.as a separate provision.He last year had held the malt tax was an injury to the country, as it was an impost on barley.The tax should have been put on beer.With all the ministerial scorn of a retaliatory tariff, they bad imposed » duty of 00 cents a bushel on malt trom U S., as agaiost only 16 cents npon Canadian malt charged by U.8.tariff.Nothing so Injudicious and disproportionate to the American impost had even been proposed in this country.He replied to ministerial arguments against a coal duty, assert!ug that N.8.coal dnty had been imposed at tbe instance of Pennsylvania^monopolUts to keep oat Nova Scotia coal.A retaliatory dnty on N.S.coal would result in repeal of duty on * U.S.coal.He showed connection between imposition of 60 cents a ton on U.S.by Canada aad reduction of dnty on Canadian coal from $1.26 to 76 cents by the U.8.and contended that Otir proper policy was to move in tbe direction of a reciprocity of tuift* In order to securing a reciprocity of trade.In reply to the member for Norfolk, ho stated that the price of fleur was governed by tbe trUe in England, and a duty of five cents on flour would uot raise the price in Nova Scotia, which drew the bulk of her supply from Ontario, and with the binding system she could even ootaln fleur by way of Nova Scotia ports without an increase of cost.Mr.KIRK replied to some of Dr.Tupper\u2019s statements as to the effect of the increase of Nova Sjotla tariff as altered by tbat gentleman upon certain articles.His impression was tbat the present Canada tariff waa framed solely with a view to obtaining necessary revenue.Dr.TUPPER corrected the honorable gentleman, os regatds some of the articles effected by the Nova Scotia tariff above mentioned.Mr.KIRK continued, stating that a duty on flour would hurt Nova Scotia flshermeu.Mr.BUNSTEB was opposed to the removal of the duty on imported malt, aud said he would take the seuse of tbe House at the next stage.The resolutions wore adopted, and the Committee rose.Mr.MACKENZIE presented a message Irom His Excellency in the following terms : \u2014\u201cDufferin, tbe Governor-General, transmits to tbe House of Commons an address from tbe Legislative Council of the Province of Quebec to the Houto of Commons ; also, an address from the Legislative Assembly ot the Province of Quebec to tbe House of Commons on tbe subject of the-recent Ministeiial changes in that Province.\u2014Government House, Ottawa, 22nd March, 1878.\" The SPEAKER said the address was attached.Sir JOHN MACDONALD\u2014Read I The address, which embodies tbe résolu-lions passed by tbs Quebec Legislature, was then read.It being six o'clock, tho Speaker left the chair.avriR Bsoass.The bill respecting the Northern Railway Company of Ctoadawas read a third time, and passed.On the motion for the third reading of tbe bill to authorise and confirm the scheme of arrangement of the Canada Southern Railway Company, Messrs.Mo DOUG ALL and CASEY moved the same amendments, as had been ptopostd at tbe préviens stages of the bill.These were declared to be lost on division.A vote, however, Fas taken un one of th< m with the following result : -Nays, 74 ; yeas, 60.Mr.STEPUEN80N moved the amendment which ho had previously offered.Nays, 98 ; Yeas, 47.Mr.MITCHELL protested against granting to Vanderbilt and the New Yo k Central a controlling power over oar canals and communication with tbe West.By tbe possession of the Canada Southern It would be possible to divert tbe whole of the trade to Riston and New York fur all time to come.waa true this road was Canadian, bnt the

cable to tbe Qlobe.) London, March 20\u2014A 'time»' editorial today says \"In these daya when so many are drawn away trom tho right faith, it is matter of satisfaction to find that the motion in favour of rc-adjasllng the Canadian tariff in a Protectionist sense has been rejected by the Dominion House of Commons.The worst symptom of the movement in Canada in favour of increased protective dalles Is that Sir John Macdonald has put Irmadf at Us head.Wo do net suppose lor a moment that he will give it success, but his conduct is mneb to be regretted iu the interest of a reputation tnat r qnires rather careful band ling.Tbe career of Sir John Macdonald for many years past is the history of Canada.When in office he showed a somewhat dis.tressing carelessness as to the means of retaining power and cynical negligence of the purity of bis Administration.There was a chance left open to him of returning to power at a future time, and tho temptation seems to have been too strong for him.He seised the opportunity offered by tho bad times and commercial depression to raise the cry of a modification of tbo tariff In the hope of rallying ronnd him all who have protectionist leanings.It Is not believed Sir John Macdonald shares their errors, but tbat he plays with these allies for the time to get rid of them somehow if he again became a Minister of the Crown.( To the Editor ot the Morning Chronicle.)
