that they consider that John Patrick, underground manager, was to blame for violating the general mining rule in taking men into the mine before he examin-ed it ; and they do further believe that Mr.Baird is blaimable for not more vigorously investigating the matter upon the report of Mr.Patrick.Mr.Patrick has since died, or doubtless steps would have beeu taken to enforce penalties for violating the mining laws.The whole day has been clear and beautiful ; the morning broke with a cloudless sky and a strong and steady wind, which has continued up to 10 o\u2019clock to-night.At the latter hour it is becoming somewhat milder and the wind blows with less strength than during the day.The northern lights are brightly visible here in accord with Wiggins\u2019 statement yesterday that they would precede his storm.The barometer, which last night stood at 29.50, this evening at 9 o\u2019clock was 30.20 and continued to rise slowly.Oue of our local prophets, while predicting a continuance of fine weather for the ensuing twenty-four hours, says he would not be surprised at a blow to-morrow niyht, the date for new moon and high tides.He says the wind may at any time change over from its present direction to north-east and then shift round to south-east, from which direction Wiggins' gale is to rise.Another asserts that the following forty-eight hours will as» suredly be fine, to-morrow being much milder than te-day, and the wind blowing lightly from the same quarter as at present.Some of the city wharf proprietors, fearing a fulfillment of Wiggins\u2019 prediction, have notified owners of goods, in their custody, that they will not be responsible for their safety during the ensuing week.Property in stores on some wharves is also being removed, from the lower to the upper stories.Owing, it is said, to the refusal of American fishermen to go on the banks again until the dreaded dates are past,a fresh fish famine has been caused iu Boston and New York, and IIOIJ'E OF COUVIONS.London, March 8\u2014lu the H'1 use of Commons to-day, Mr.Gladstone ded ued to give a day lor the discussion of the KiiMiiiuham treaty negotiations.Sir S.Northcote said he would not 2pro-ceed further in the matter ;

soldier in the Queen\u2019s army ?Of course wo mean Major-General Sir John C.McNbiu., V.C., K.C.M.G., &c., &c.Another honour fra» come to him.The last London GciztUt announces that Her Majesty has been pleased to appoint the gallant Sir .John a Knight Commander of the Most Honorable Order of the Bath.If Sir John keeps on at thia rate there will soon be no ribbons to conquer, and he will have to go in for stepa in the peerage.Whether the time be war or peace, the lines fall in pleasant places for Sir John.He deserves his honours, of course, but few men are lucky enough in thia werld of ours to get all the good things which they may deserve.A VITAL QUESTION.The question of cheap light is one of the social problems of the 19th century, and is attracting univeral attention.It :s gratifying to find both houses of our Legislature taking a deep interest in this ques tion.Until the Citizens\u2019 Gas Company of Montreal came down for a charter, very few of our legislators had thought much about the question of cheap light.Now a very deep interest has been awakened regarding the subject, and wo find the most enlightened, the most progressive and the most sincere-of our legislators enlisted in the crusade for cheap light Every honest man who has given the question a moment\u2019s consideration will admit that as a prime necessary of life our light should be ranked with our bread and our water.Hence we conclude that any man who opposes the Citizens' Gas Company's bill, or any other bill of a like character, is enlisted against the people\u2019s interests.We will watch closely the votes on thia question.The people throughout the whole country will watch them closely, and we sincerely believe the name of every opponent to the bill of the Citizens Gas Company of Montreal will be noted by the taxpayers of the nation.It will be inter eating to see how our city members will vote on the question.ing his hosts of warring planets.W bat a glorious part for any mortal to play.Herslhell, we may be sure, would have given ten years of his life to be in M io-gins\u2019s boots to-day, and General Hazen, we can surmise, will grow red with weeping and vexation before the night is past.Under these circumstances, when Wiggins is really doing his best, how manifestly unjust it is for the New York Sun to say : \u2022Encouraged by the faith which some foolish people have shown in his powers of weather prophecy, Wiggins, of Canada, now insists that the treniçndous storm which he had predicted for March 11 wdl surely occur, and he annornces that he is going to Halifax to witness its effects.After the complete failure of his February storm predictions, Wiggins said the March storm would not bo so bad as he had supposed, but now, finding that there are people whose faith is stronger than his own, he ventures to touch up the sombre colors of his prophecy again.If somebody should predict th%t on a certain day a gust of wind would start from Orange hills and blow Trinity steeple over into Wall street, the prediction would have about as much foundation as Wiggins\u2019 prophecy, that the frightful tempest he describes will strike the Atlantic coast on March 11.These weather prophets make fools of the people who believe in them.\u201d One does not need to read between the lines to discover Mr.Dana\u2019s venom.Had Wiggins been an American the Sun would never have traduced him in so vile a way, but the fact that he is a Canadian is enough, and the writer dips his pen in gail, and lashes the only real natural astronomical weather predictor Canada has ever produced.But Wiggins can stand it.\\S ere ho a vindictive man now, he could make it pretty hot for the Sun office to\" day.A single perihelion could do it, a mare planet sent across the Suns disc would annihilate the office and all it cun* tained, in less time than it takes to say \u201cJack Robinson, \u2019 and in the face of that the Sun serenely ejaculates that Wiggins is a fool.We shall see about that to-day.Meanwhile, we advise nobody to go out without an overcoat.jects into.comideration and submit the recommendations to his colleagues.The object of the rcniiired changes in duty, it will lieseen, is t encourage the importation of art of various kinds of distinguished artists.IRISH TROUBLliS.TUc Itrcach of Promise Case Against Mr.Itiggar, M.P.LA I) Y FLORENCE DIXIE\u2019S CHARGES.DEPARTURE OF Ü00 LIMERICK GIRLS.Release of Byrne by the French Authorities.THE WIGGINS STORM TO-DAY.If you want to see Wiggins\u2019s awful storm to-day, you must look at the weather closely.The professor says that he is positive that a tidal wave will occur in the Bay of Bengal or the coast of Australia and in the Gulf of Mexico.He states moreover that the Newfoundlanders are going to have a great day of it.Not a fishing boat on earth,\u2014mark the phrase,\u2014 will be able to live on the banks of Now foundland in the storm.All round the world there are going to be fearful times to-day, and Halifax is going to suffer very much.Montreal will be comparatively safe, but the Bermudas, the American coast, the Gulf of St Lawrence and the wild Atlantic are to be convulsed as they have never been agitated before Wiggins bases his reputation on his success to-day.If he fails to produce his storm, then he promises to retiro forever from the office of weather prophet.We fear, however, that we will lose the genial professor, and that there will be a post-* ponement, in this instance, on account of the weather.Three days ago we had storm, but that was only a bit of a breeze compared to what we are to have to-day.As Wiggins remarks it was only \u201cone of the celestial warriors running to battle, a sort of Prince Rupert doubtless, who was always rushing ahead, when he ought to have remained with the body of the army.On the Gth instant one .of the planets, it seems, crossed the earth\u2019s disc, and there teas a row.We may stop to say here that it is no trifling offense to cross the earth\u2019s disc.The earth protested and what was the result.Five feet of snow in Montreal, the city that Wiggins promised to spare, and the postponement of Sir Leonard Tilley\u2019s budget speech, which was to have been delivered to-day, until next week.It would have been better if this impetuous planet had waited until the solid phalanx had been ready to move.We may premise that he was only trying to \u201cshow off.But Wig-gins smelt a planet.It was part of his organized plan, to have one let out, just to shew what could be done on even a small scale.* \u2018 It was through fear of these pre cursory storms that I warned the Vicdroy of India and the Lords of the Admiralty to order all ships uncler their command to safe harbors not later than the 5th of March,\u201d he says.In the face of this, it was mean and unkind, we think, for the London Daily Telegraph to sneer at our fresh Canadian prophet, in these terms :\u2014 \u201c A prediction which has been published, that a terrible gale will occur in March, and that it will not be safe for ships to be on the water between March 5th and 31st, having caused alarm in minds of smack-ownerè as to the safety of their property, Mr.Emmet, underwriter, of Ramsgate, wrote to the Meteorological Office, London/ on the subject, and received the following reply :\t\u2018 The prophecy to which you allude emanates from some man in the Finance Department of the Canadian Government.It is utter nonsense.No living man can predict the weather two days before hand, much less six months.The idea that the Admiralty have, ordered ships to be in port s also absurd and utterlv false.\u2019 \u2019 It is easy to see that the Euglishers are jealous.It La part of their narrow-minded policy to look down on everything colonial.They even laugh at our Wiggins, and pooh-pooh his storm as if it were noi thing.How admirable in contrast is the conduct of the Ottawa crank, who built a cave in the recesses of which he might hide during the time the winds were blowing great guns.There's faith for you, and the crank will laugh in his sleeve, or his cave, to-day, when the rest of us are hurrying along looking for our houses amidst t\u2019ie ruins.And contrast again, with the miserable policy of the Lords of the British Admiralty, the tactics of safety which are being pursued by the hardy fishermen of Long Branch.All day yesterday those veterans of the coast were engaged in tying up their boats, and swearing on their bended knees,\u2014the way fishermen usually wear in the nautical plays on the stage,\u2014 that they will not go to sea until the danger is past.And from Gloucester, Mass., comes the same news.The fishermen will not face the elements until Wiggins calls off his storm.And the prophet himself, what is he doing all the time ] why simply living up to his perihelion, and marshall-1 THE FRENCH LANGUAGE IN PARLIAMENT.We are surprised to find in the Ottawa correspondence of the Moncton Transcript, \u2014the correspondence being written by its editor, Mr.J.E.B.Macready; an habilue of the Press Gallery for years,\u2014 the following paragraph :\u2014 \u201cA French member, Mr.Valin, urged the proprietybf assisting passages of Lower Canadians who wished to migrate to the North-West, as equally desirable with as sisting passages of immigrants from the Old World.He spoke in French, with great animation, but his views were too palpably absurd to commend themselves to the good sense of the House.There are several members of the House whoso native language is German, and others who speak Gaelic.They have not hitherto claimed their right Jto speak in those lan guages in Parliament, but it is proposed that they shall do so on some future occasion.As it is, very little attention is paid by the majority of the House to any speech not delivered in English.\u201d Surely the Transcript know» better than this.French is as much the language of Canada, in an official sense, as English is.A French member does not speak in his native tongue in Parliament because he is \u201cprivileged.\u2019\u2019 He has a perfect right to do so.Gælic and German are not languages of the country, and it wpuld be absurd to find members speaking in those tongues, and when they try it \u201con some future occasion,\u201d they will only l>e laughed at.The Transcript speaks of Sir.Valin in contemptuous tci ms.Our contemporary evidently dues not kriow the Chairman of the Quebec Harbour Cummission.' THE OPPOSITION.Mr.Gagnon attacked the Chronicle yesterday for having spoken of the Oppo sition obstructions to the business of the House, and denied that such Obstructions had taken place.Mr.McShane followed and was good enough to ask that the Chronicle would correct the statement If the members of the Opposition will even at this late hour, show their sincerity in this matter, by assisting to bring the session to an early close, the Chronicle will be the first to give them due credit for the same.NOTES FROM THE .CAPITAL.(SiKcial- to \\the Morning Chronicle) Ottawa, March 8\u2014It is said that there is some probability of the Opposition members refusing to serve on the Com mittee to which Sir John proposes to refer the license question.They contend that the Government is abrogating its functions as a Government, as it is endeavoring to shirk the responsibility of introducing legislation on this important subject.Mr.Ross (Lisgar) is urging on the Government that the time for fyling claims under the Manitoba Act, which expired last May by limitation, should be extend-for a year or two longer, as there are still a number of persons who have been occupying and working farms in the Red River Valley for fifteen or twenty years who have never received patents under the Manitoba Act, and who do not know that they require titles.The only time they find out that they need a patent is when they want to borrow money or sell their farms.The following laws expire at the end of the present session of Parliament :\u2014An Act for the better prevention of crimes of violence in certain parts of Canada, until the end of the text session of Parliament, and an Act respecting the administration of criminal justice in the territory in dispute between the Governments of the Province of Ontario and of the Dominion of Canada.The Government to-day Agreed upon their policy in relation to the amendments to the banking act.They will adhere to the original measure in su far as to prohibit private bankers from using the terms \u2022\u2018banking association,\u201d \u201ccompany\u201d or \u2018institution,\u201d by which to designate themselves, but the act will not come into operation until October 1st, so as to enable private banks to exhaust their stock of statiorfery and prepare for the change in name and to enable incorporated banks to retire all their loans on bank stocks.The law has made advances upon bank shares by chartered banks an illegal act for some two years past, but uo penalty for infraction of the law other than the extreme one of forfeiture of tho charter has been at the command of the Government.In the amendment now before the House a penalty for loansof this character is provided and will be exacted whenever infractions are discovered, but in order to enable banks to bring themselves within the law its operation has been postponed until October 1st.This afternoon, Messrs.R.VV Shepherd, Steele, D.A.Watt and Tlios.White, M.| members of Council, and Hons.Tims.Ryan and J.J.Cv Abbott, members of the Art Association of Montreal, had an interview with Sir Leonard Tilley.They asked that the duty on books, etchings and engravings, bound or unbound, should be made specific and duty imposed on thu weight ; that works of art of recognized artists of reputation in marble and terra-cotta should be made free of duty ; that works of art in the baser metals, such as bronze and copper, when imported as such, should be subject to a specific tax imposed on tho weight, and tliat the duty on stained glass should be made specific and imposed on the square foot, in the last recommendation the reputation has the support of Mr.\u2022Spence of Montreal and other manufacturers of stained glass, and in that for the imposition of a specific duty on works of art in the baser metals tho cordial approbation of manufacturers of these works for other uses than as art ornaments.Sir Leonard Tilley promised to take the sub- TIIE DISAPPEARANCE OF TREASURER EGAN.London, March 8\u2014A correspondent in Dublin states positively that the authorities expect very soon to implicate several Irish\u2019 members of Parliament who for a long time have been suspected of connection with tho murder conspiracy.\u2022 Tho trial of the action of Miss Hyland against Mr.Biggar, for damages for breach of promise of marriage, was begun to-day.The counsel said the parties were introduced to each ether in Paris by Patrick Egan.Miss Hyland testified that Egan was mainly responsible for her action in bringing the suit.It is stated Egan left because he wished to avoid being called as a witness.Lady Florence Dixie charges that Messrs.Biggar and Parnell, as Trustees of the Land League Fund, have not accounted for £15*2,-000.She declares that while this money is unaccountedior Parnell and his followers will have no right to mock the sufferings of tho distressed people of Ireland by a sham championship of the starving peasantry.In the Hyland-Biggar breach of promise case, the jury rendered a verdict of £4,000 against the defendant.Dublin, March 8\u2014Judge Johnston, in opening the Sligo Assizes, congratulated the jury ou the diminution of agrarian crimes.Limerick, March 8\u2014Two hundred girls have started for New Hampshire.Almost the entire population assembled to bid them good-bye ; the scenes were affecting.Paris, March 8\u2014To one of the affidavits showing Byrne was in London at the date of tho Phœnix Park murders, is appended a telegram sent from London by Byrne on that date, announcing the release of Davitt from prison.Byrne was released this evening, the authorities not deeming the case one for extradition.Ballydehob, March 8 -Hoduett, son of the recently sentenced Bantry agitator, has been arrestefl on a charge of mailing a parcel of dynamite to Earl Spencer.Dublin, March 8\u2014Mr.Jenkinson, Director of the Irish Criminl Investigation Department, states that Egan had been under the police supervision for some time/ but that he left on Thursday unknown to the police.Mr.Jenkinson believed that Egan fled because he thought that if Sheridan was extradited important evidence would come into the hands of the authorities.Three let ters from Egan were found on Carey\u2019s premises, dated October and November, 1881, at which time the Invincibles were established.One letter expresses a hope that Carey will succeed in the work he has on hand.SrQTES AlSTD STEWS Judge Kouthler\u2019s Lecture.Last evening, the Hon.Judge Routhier lectured ou \u201cDivorce\u201d to a very large audience in one of the lecture rooms of Laval University.It was the second discourse of a series which His Honor has been giving lately in the University on Domestic Society, the first one having been on Marriage.The Judge was in excellent voice and discussed the Taw and subject of divorce in an able and thorough manner.He traced the career of the law in France and elsewhere, and dealt with the causes which led to its final abolishment in certain countries, and pointed out its eviis in a very masterly way.He showed the blighting effects it had on peoples of any community, how utterly opposed it was to all Christian religions, and referred to its alarming existence iu the United States, where in some sections the proportion of divorces was as one out of every twenty-four marriages contracted, and contrasted its sinfulness \u201cwith that of polygamy and other crimes against tho social law.His Honor proved conclusively that divorces led to unhappiness and unstability among people.Where the law was a dead-letter men and women led purer and better lives.\u2022 He interlarded his learned and scholarly pai>cr with opinions from the works of great lawyers and commentators on the law points of the question, and quoted some pertinent extracts from the plays of Sardou and the writings of Dumas and others to show certain features of the marriage state in a special light.The Judge's lecture was full of admirable illustrations, sound advice and happy allusions.He drew a picture of woman's condition when divorced and contrasted it with man\u2019s,\u2014certainly in a way which would cause any one wno contemplated an appeal to the Courts with such au object in view, to hesitate and forbear.This part of the lecture was very effective, and pointed a fine moral.His Honor\u2019s theme was ably handled throughout, and the applause which greeted his periods at times, was very great.He spoke for about an hour and held the attention of his audience closely until tho end.Among those present were HisGrace the Archbishop, Rev.Dr.Hamel, Rev.Mr.Bruchési, Rev.Mr.Marcoux, Hon.Mr.de la Bruyt-re, Speaker of the Legislative Council, Hon.Mr.Remillard.Mr.S.Lesage, Mr.Letnienx, Mr.Chapais, Mr.Comeau and others.The Citizens' Gas Company BUI.The Bill to incorporate the Citizens\u2019 Gas Company of Montreal was before the Private Bills Committee yesterday, commencing at 11.45.The Chairman, Mr.Beaubien, asked to have an understanding as to mode of discussion.The promoters of the bill asked to have two Counsel and the Mayor of Montreal heard.The opposition desired to be heard by Counsel and the directors of the actual Gas Company.The Chairman read the preamble of the bill and the war commenced.Mayor Beaudry said that as representing the city of Montreal, the general opinion of the citizens was favorable to the bill.The Corporation was willing to have the streets of the city opened for the purpose of laying the pipes necessary to secure the much desired diminution in the price of gas.Twenty-five out of twenty-seven members of the Council had petitioned in favor of the passage of the bill.In supporting it he was not expressing alone his own opinion but that of the great bulk of the citizens.John Ostell, Vice-President of the Montreal Gas Company, followed.He said in years gone by there were two Gas Companies in Montreal.Result was amalgamation and prices went up to $5.This had been gradually reduced by the presept Company to $1.55 net.It was all very well to promise but a different thing to fulfill such promises os made by the promoters of the bill.lie asked the Committee to bear in mind the interests of the five hundred stockholders of the Company, including a large percentage of widows and orphans, re ligious and charitable institutions.The com pany had been called a monopoly, but the Premier had truly said in the House last night that monopolies were not always injurious or undesirable.He objected to interference with vested rights, and said there was too much communism iu these days, which was illustrated by immediate attacks u|>on any individuals or corporations making fair profits.Mr.R.McGibbon, advocate, made a fluent and telling speech in support of the bill.He said ho had understood that tho Montreal l ias Company was to make a vigorous opposition to the bdl, but from tho argumeuts of Mr.Ostell he should say that the Gas Company iu its own interest and that of tho widows and orphans so pathetically alluded to by him should aid the incorporation of the new company.The Vice-President of the Gas Company had advanced the startling proposition that the hill should not be passed, because the incorporation of a second company would send up the price of gas.In any other branch of business the contrary would he the case.In the city of Detroit there were till lately two gas companies, eachfurnislung gas at $1 per 1,000 feet.As soon as they amalgamated the price went up to 8*2.The present hill prevents amalgamation or pooling arrangements with any other company, under thepeualty of forfeiting the charter.If there was any feeling at all in Montreal against the measure, if one citizen of importance opposed it he would like to see him, and the movement had been inaugurated by the largest petition ever signed in Montreal, asking tho Corporation for permission to lay its pipes in the streets.French and English citizens alike, merchants and professional men had all signed.A nongst the promoters were names like that ot Mr.Andrew Allan, of men whose respectability could never be questioned.These names were a guarantee that there was no speculation iu the matter.He denied the speculative charge indignantly.When he arrived hereon Wednesday he found the principal argument of thepppouents was that the scheme was of a bogus or speculative character.He immediately telegraphed the promoters and had several replies expressive of their thorough earnestness from men like Mr.Arthur Roy, Hon.A.W.Ogilvie, Mr.Jos.Hudon, Hon.Mr, Thibaudeau and Mr.Ily.Hogan, St.Lawrence Itall, who telegraphed \u201cAm in sciions earnest iu this enterprise, which is against a huge monopoly.\u201d The City Council unanimously passed a resolution approving of the bill, and 25 out of 27 councillors signed a petition praying for its passage.Mr.Ostell had spoken of the efforts of the Gas Company to protect the interests of widows and orphans.He had not referred, however, to tho numbers of poor widows and others u ho had to burn tallow candles because they could not pay the rates charged hy this company for gas.It was not in reason that the bill should he rejected.There was no solid argument against it.If the Gas Company believe they are furnishing gas at lowest possible rates, they had nothing to fear from competition.When their contract expires iu 1885 fur lighting the city, the new Company bind themselves to tender for the work, and if the Gas Company then tender as low, say for $1 per 1,000 feet, tho new Company would retire.By their bill they were precluded from paying more than 10 per cent dividend, or from accumulating more than 5 per cent of a rest.The Company also provided in their bill that the C.ty Council should send three directors to the Board meetings with access to all the books, 4 .\\ What could bo fairer ?As to the old Com- fany, its original capital had been $1,000,000.t had been watered to the extent of $700,000, and a divid«.nd amounting to 12 per cent on the whole was paid.He would read now what Mr, Workman, of Montreal, himself a stockholder of this Gas Company, had recently said at a public meeting as to the enormous profits of tho Company.Mr.F.X.Archambault\u2014W\u2019hat paper do you read from ?Mr.McGibbon\u2014The Star.Mr.Archambault\u2014I thought so.Mr.Stepheus\u2014You don\u2019t believe in that, do you ?Mr.Archambault\u2014No, indeed I do not.Mr.McGibbon said what he was about to read was a report of what had occurred at a Kublic meeting and had never been denied.[e then read what M r.Workman had said respecting the enormous profits made hy Messrs.Frotliingham and Workman on $800 originally subscribed to the Gas Company.Mr.McGibbon, conth.uing, said that other gas companies might charge more than that in Montreal, but it must he remembered that in the United States they had to pay for tho right of opening streets and expensive costs of legislation, so that it frequently happened a company had to expend $200,000 or $300,000 at the very outset, and then to provide street lamps, for which tho Montreal Gas Company were paid $24 each.He asked that the new company be allowed a charter and given a chance to tender.They wanted to be protected against monopoly, and if the other company reduced the price of gas to their figure, were prepared to withdraw without being reimbursed for their outlay.Mr.Jesse Joseph, President of the Gas Company, followed, speaking until shortly before one o\u2019clock, when the Committee adjourned.He referred to the ease with which siguatures were secured to petitions, especially when the people were told that by signing them they could keep their hills at half price.He then read lengthy extracts from a report by A.Hickenlooper to the Committee on Light of the Board of Public W\u2019orks of the City of Cincinnati, contending that it was always inadvisable to have competition in tho supply of gas, as the result was invariably the absorption of the weaker company by the stronger, and the subsequent increase iu rates.The experience ol numerous cities on this subject was quoted in support of this pretension.Mr.Joseph said that tho present company had possession of the streets of the city and their system of pipes iu the streets had been built with the city.If this bill was passed, a war between the two companies would &pt in which would cause large costa ami outlay, and finally when the weaker succumbed, the rates would have to be raised and the public thus made to pay for the rivalry and worse than useless war which would have been waged.By the terms of the contract passed between the Corporation of Montreal and the Gas Company, the former pledged itself to grant no permission \"to any other Company to lay pipes in the city before 1885.By this contract they also agreed to supply light at $2.50 per 1,000 feet up to 1885.Notwithstanding this, the Company had, some few years ago, without any solicitation from the Corporation, reduced their charges to $2.00 par thousand, thus kuocking off $80,000.Last year again they had made another reduction, unsolicited, to $1.00 per thousand.That had been the policy of tlie Company, that was its present policy and would continue to be its policy in the future.He denied that there was any monopoly in the Gas Company.It had started 35 years ago.and for seven years had paid no dividend.Then it paid for some time four, five and six per cent.Referring to Mr.Workman's speech read from the Star, by Mr, McGibbon, he said it was singular to find any body complaining that their investments paid them too large dividends.Analysing his figures, however, it would be seen ou reflection that the $800 paid 35 years ago, at 8 per cent, compound interest should now amount, on an ordinary investment, to$IG,-900, and at 10 per cent., the rate allowed in England on gas investments, should reach the sum of $36,000.Owing to tne risk of acci dents to which they were subject, gas com panies were like gunpowder.In England 10 per cent, was allowed to bo paid by them, and in France 20 per cent.It would he remembered that an explosion iu Glasgow a few days ago caused damage to gas works to the extent of $300,000.A similar accident some years ago iu Liverpool caused a loss of $570,-000.So that he did not think 12 per cent, was too high to pay here on a gas stock.He referred to the special impost on the Gas Com pany of $5,000 in addition for ordinary taxes paid the city of Montreal, making in all nearly $10,000 per annum.Referring to the large amount expended on buildings, etc., by the Company, he said the proposed legislation, if adopted, would amount to virtual confisea tion of its property, in which they counted as shareholders numerous churches, hospitals, nunneries and other institutions.He denied that tho stock of the Company had beeu watered.Mr.Stephens\u2014Oil ! oh ! Mr Joseph repeat'd that the stock had not been watered.New etock hail been issued, but it arose from the proceeds of sales of valuable lauded estates and accumulated profits which had been invested in extending the works, thereby increasing the assets of tho company.He quoted from a list of S30 gas companies iu America, to show that the rates charged iu Montreal, $1.90 for light and $1.20 for other purposes, averaging $1.55, were about the lowest charged anywhere ou the continent.Even in the city of Philadelphia, where the city owns the Gas Company aud no dividends are paid, in order that cheap gas may bo assured, it is found necessary to charge $1.90 per 1,000 feet.He alluded to the statement made by Mr.McGibbon of street lamps being supplied by the city of Philadelphia free.This may well lie accounted for, when it is called to mind that the Gas Company is the property of tho Corporation.Being nearly one o'clock, the Committee adjourned until 10.30 a.m.to-day, when Mr.Drouiu, advocate, will address the Committee in favor of the bill, Mr.Ben Globenski for the Gas Company aud Mr.McGibbon will sum up iu reply.The Committee adopted yesterday the hill to amend the charter of the Canadian Electric Light Company, amending it to strike out other means of illuminating besides the electric light, and permitting the use of gas only for the purpose of generating electric light.was splendidly

and loudly encored.The sword exercise by a squad of \u201cA\u201d Battery was splendidly executed and elicited tho warm admiration of the audience.Sergt.Neil of the 8th was encored after singing \u201cSailing,\u201d and gave another solo in his usual pleasing manner.Tho club swinging of the Privates Diamond of the 8th was quite clever and was deservedly applauded.The tahlrnn which followed,

Hon.Mr.JULY warmly supported the resolution, adding the hope that the Government would appoint, as Superintendents, honest and useful men and not parties recommended to their favor by political reasons, and offering a large numbei of practical suggestions, especially with regard to railways running through forest lands.Mr.CARBRAY said the Government could not take too much interest in the protection of the forests.Within the last 25 years, it w^s probable that more timber had been destroyed by fire in this province than had been cat for the market.He had heard only to-day a lumberman complaining of the laxity of the rules of the Crown Lands Department with reference to the catting of trees measuring less than twelve inches at the stomp.After the Dominion subsidy, our forests now supplied almost our only source of revenue, and he could not recommend too strongly to the Hon.Commissioner of Crown Lands the great im portance of taking means for their preservation, and to render effective the present regulations of the department affecting them.He was sore no member of the House would begrudge a reasonable amount to be set apart for this pur->o«e from the revenue derived from our Crown Lands.(Applause.) Hon.Mr.FLYNN followed, expressing the pleasure with which he had heard the remarks which had fallen on this subject, both from the Hon.Commissioner of Crown Lands, and also from the hon.ex-leader of the Opposition.He spoke at some length in favor of the resolution.Hon.Mr.BEAUBIEN also supported the resolution, suggesting amongst other things that the goardians who should be appointed might bo employed in seeding down such por-tious of the bush as had been swept by fires and were unfit fot cultivation, and instancing trees now 30 feet in height, the seed of which he himself had planted.He also spoke of the waste occasioned by the manufacture of square timber, speaking at considerable length.Hon.Mr.MARCHAND made lengthy remarks in favor of the resolution.At six o\u2019clock the House took recess.AFTER BF.CEdS.By order, March 8.1883.F.H.ANDREWS, Secretary.B In the matter of P.H.MATTE, Tanner, of Stsnfold, Insolvent.WILL BE SOLD BY PUBLIC AUC-tion, at Stanfold, on TUESDAY, 13th March, at 10 o\u2019clock A.M., the whole of tha Stock of Leather, manufactured and in process of manufacture, amounting according to inventory to the sum of $3,681.46.with the Tannery at Pnnceville, with all tha Machinery used for tbs manufacture of Leather, two Houses in the Village of Princeville, and one in tho Village of Plessisville, Some*set, with other properties to be designated on the day of sale.The Sale will be Without Reserve.The buy ors of such shall be required to deposit $.rCO in cash or accepted cheque before adj udication The Properties and Stock can be examined between this date and the day of sale, by apply ing on the ground to G.RUELLAND.Tha Sale will take place at 10 A.M.For the Creditors, FELIX GOURDKAU, March 7, 1883.Interim Assignee.td nsroTTCE- To the Shareholders of the late Quebec Fire and Marine Insurance Company.Desjardins, i\u2019aquct, Faucher dc St.Maurice, Marcotte, Leblanc, Caron, Robillard, Leduc, Martin, Martel, Poulin, Richard, Des-aulniers, Audet, Casavant, Paradis, Marion, Duhamel.Garneau and Duckett\u201430.The main motion was then adopted on the same division and the House went into Committee on the bill, Mr.Desjardins in the chair.A long discussion occurred on the preamble of the bill, when the Committee rose and reported pt ogress.The House then adjourned at 1 a.m.A FINAL AND LAST DIVIDEND OF Forty Cents on each Share, will be paid on or after the 15th instant, payable at the Office of the N.A.Rubber Company, St.Paul Street.Quebec, 5th March, 1883.By order, ALFRED PIDDINGTON, Acting Secretary, March 6, 1883.____H bo mmpaiifiie .LATEST ILLUSTRATED WALTZ, PLAYED WITH GREAT SUCCESS AT the Speaker\u2019s Musical Evenings, by one of Quebec's most brilliant Pianists, and at th« ast Concert by the Band of 8th Royal Riffe*.-COMPOSED BY- J _ -V IC ZX ?EPriOO.m m m m 650.Published and for sale by A.LAVIGNE, Importer of Pianos and Organs, 55, Fabrique Street N.B.\u2014Just now, a few SECOND HAND Pianos and Organs to be disposed of at very low figures.March 7, 1883.____»:»!26-Lm Fire Bricks !

explained that the law at present required that Railway Companies should erect fences to prevent cattle, &c., getting on their track, but in one or two cases Judges had held that the farmers, whose property was crossed by the railway, ought to notify the Company that fences were needed.The object of this bill was to make it compulsory on the Railways to erect the fences without any notice.RAILWAY COMMLSSIONERS.Mr.MCCARTHY moved the second reading of the act coostitutiou a Court of Rvil-way Commissioners for Canada and to amend the Consolidated Railway Act.He said that the bill was substantially that of last year, as reported from the Select Committee.He urged the necessity for creating a special Court for the settlement of railway cases, and cited the success which had attended such a Court.He contended that the railway corporations virtually did as they pleased and should have some greater supervision to ensure that they carried out their obligations to the public.The different Governments, Dominion and Provincial and municipal, had ooutributed about one-third of the cost of the railways of the country and their interests ought to be protected.Sir CHAS.TUPPER said he did not rise to oppose the bill, but to call attention to some of its points.The question was a very different one here from what it was in England.There the system was isolated, but our system must be more or less influenced by the larger railway system to the south of us.unless it was to be confined entirely to local traffic and to attempt to compete for any portion of the great through trade which we bad always regarded as one of the moat important things for us to gain.The fact that one-third of the cost of the railways had been contribated by the Government showed the great importance which the people attached to works of this kind.He referred to the question of railways chartered by Provincial Governments, and thought the House ought to be very careful about placing restrictions on railways which had Dominion charters, which would place them at a disadvantage with roads which had obtained local charters.He dwelt at some length on the immense advantage which railways had been to Canada, and the large amount of foreign capital which had been invested in them.Most of this capital had not paid any interest, and it would not be good policy to impose on the railway companies condition* which did uot exist when this capital was invested.Hon.Mr.BLAKE advised a consultation with the managers of the great companies so as to let them see that there was no desire to treat them unfairly, and suggested that after one general meeting of the Railway Committee to decide whether or not the principle of the bill should be approved, the bill, if the general principle was opposed, should be submitted to a sub Committee.Hon.Mr.MACKENZIE thought that the Government ought to declare whether it would allow Government railways to come under the jurisdiction of this Court.He could not see any necessity for the hill and would not be prepared to advocate it unless all the Provincial Governments were included.Mr.HAGGART supported the bill.Sir JOHN MACDONALD recommended that the bill be referred to the Committee on Railways and Canals, and thought that there was a growing feeling iti favor of legislation of this sort.Mr.McCARTHY regretted having to refer the bill to the Railway Committee as he was afraid that it would not pass this session.He defended the bill generally, and contended that the Dominion House had jurisdiction over Provincial roads as far as matters relating purely to trade aud commerce were concerned.The bill was read a second time aud referred to the Committee on Railways.Tne House adjourned at 5.50.NOTICES OF

.Hr.Sheridan.London, February 21.\u2014You may well suppose that very little is talked of here at the present moment besides the extraordinary revelations which have recently been brought to light in Dublin.Yet why they should be called extraordinary I do not know, for the same set of figures, upon whom all eyes are now fixed, is to bo traced throughout Irish history for generations past\u2014namely, the member of the secret society, the informer and the hangman.Generations may pass and governments may change, but that melancholy group invariably nukes its appearance ou the scene, it was so in '98\u2014 pernaps the most hopeful period which the \u2019\u2022Liberators\u201d have ever known\u2014and it is likely to be so to the cud.The informer is sore to ome forward ami ply his vile trade sooner or later, i'uere is so great a certainty of this that it is astonishing bow any body of Irishmen can be brought together to act in any sort of conspiracy.Tne hand of one of their own number is always destined to lead them to the gallo ns, and it is generally the hand of the most guilty among them which does the foul and traitorous work.la the present i us tance tnere has been very little departure from the innumerable precedents established iu former times.James Carey, the chief informer, was the ringleader of the gantr.and now he has become their betrayer.All lhat can be said tor him is tnat he baa not delivered over his companions t » the executioner for the sake of the reward of £10,000 w huh was ottered by the Government immediately after the Puceuix Park murders.Tne large sum did uot suffi ;e to open the mouth of any of the conspirators.Tne agency which produced that result i.tne oue which is moved by the ex-Iodiau official, Mr.Jenkiusou, whoso name will foug be remembered iu the aaoalsof the Irish \u2022'Inviuci-Wes.\u201d 51 r.Jenkiusou has gone to work very quietly, taking his share of the abase which tne popular thirty iu Ireland, and net a few of the leading Radicals m England, have heaped upon all who were engaged in the work of trying to re-establish the supremacy of tne law.Whether he bad anything to do with the suppression of the Thugi in india I know not ; he oould scarcely nave taken par: in the early procee dogs against that m ch dreaded orcraoization, for the enief work was done between 1S31 a\"d 1837.But the Thugs have been troublesome at many different periods since then, and the one effectual mode cf dealing with them, which was first practised by Colonel Meadows Fay lor, has ever siuco been adopted.It is to make a member of the gang reveal the name and offenses of another and so to follow- up the chain to its last link.The small fry trusted to the capture of the big fish.By this progress every man who was concerned in the murders of Lord Frederick Cavendish and.5(r.Burke was tracked.It is said that more than half the number of the prisoners now awaiting their trial offered to turn Queen\u2019s evidence, bat the (îbvernment would only accept of Carey.That accounts for his remark when the prisoners were hurling anathemas at him one day : \u201cYou all wanted to forestall me.\u201d He felt that his owu neck was in the n xwe, and he got it out by putting iu the necks of all his companions» How much did he really know ?A great many persons, some in very prominent positions, will be trembling in their shoes until that question is answered.The recognized leaders of the Land League are by no means in a pleasant or desirable position.It is beyond a doubt that they were in a constant and close communication with some of the persons ac cused of planning all these murders in Ireland, and notably with Mr.Sheridan.One condition in the celebrated Kilmainham compact was that Sheridan should help the Government to suppress lawlessness in the west of Irelanl, though on what terms has never been clearly stated.Mr.Chamber-lain, perhaos, could tell, for he was one of the influential persons engaged in negotiating the Kilmainham treaty.How far, then, will Mr.Parnell and his associates in the Land League be compromised by the disclosures now hanging over their heads ?I, for one, do not believe for a moment that Mr.Parnell had any instrumentality whatever iu the acta which have produced such terrible cjmequenccs ; he has always been a strenuous advocate of tne principle of confining the agitation for the repress of Irish grievances within the strictest limits of the law.His knowledge of Irish history has doubtless shown him the peril and disaster which are inseparable from the wild schemes which reckless men are always ready to propose\u2014especially when ahey are themselves at a safe distance from the scene of danger.Is it at all probable that Mr.Parnell,' after his repeated warnings to his countrymen to keep on the safe side of the law, would render himself responsible for the crimes of an organized band of assassins ?But although Mr.Parnell may not be in any danger, it may turn out that other members of the Land League are not so fortunate.It is no secret that some of them are very much alarmed, and it is also clear that a conspiracy so extensive as this was not directed by such savages\u2014for in their aspect, as well as iu their deeds, they are little better\u2014as Brady and \u201cSkin the Goat.\u201d The mysterious \u201cNo.Oue\u201d was doubtless one of the guiding minds, but there were others even more active and influential whose orders he obeyed.The whisper is that Carey knew who they all were and that he has told the Government, who are only waiting for the proper moment to use the information.At present the business in hand is to convict and nang the murderers of Lord Cavendish and Mr.\u2019Burke, and there will probably be not much delay in doing that.Then other prosecutions must succeed, and among them there will be some aimed at personages of much greater social and political importance than \u201cSkin the Goat.\u201d But, whatever may happen, it is only too cerUin that the really guilty parties\u2014those who have done the must to encourage or to direct this conspiracy\u2014will escape.The tools and the dupes will alone suffer.There ip the informer Carey himself\u2014a baser wretch Uever lived.He lured innocent men into the plot and then denounced them.Ono of the | prisoners in the dock (os you will have read) pointed to him at the close of his evidence aud exclaimed bitterly : \u2018\u2018To that man I owe all the misfortuues of my life.\u201d How often has the same sorrowful cry resounded from the joil or the gallows in Ireland Î But even among Irish informers James Carey has attained to exceptional infamy.He is was who pointed out Mr.Burke to the assassins aud who armed them with the knives which slew the victims.His social position was a good oue\u2014he was a Town Councillor of Dublin, and last year he came within three votes of being made Lord Mayor.Whatever he went into was tnought to be quite safe.The \u201clower classes\u201d trusted in him.and there was no man so popular in all the various organizations which are now scattered over Ireland.Yet he has not hesitated to sacrifice all his comrades, although among them is his owu brother, whose hard fate does not save him from the execration of his fellow-prisoners.Brady may almost be said to be a murderer by instinct\u2014 he evidently glories in his trade.He listened to Carey\u2019s account of his crossing from body to bor-i real nonri-h-ment in one r*ound of JOHNS CON'S FLUID BKKFthan in 200 pounds of Leibii\u2019s or auv similar
