have operated upon the Juty with irresistible strength in favor of Mrs.Bartlett.The first was btsed on the nndiepated fact that Mrs.Bartlett retained the ohlorofoma bottle for a long time after her husband e death.It wasarguedthat thi.not hftYB bcBti to if Mrie Bartlett had administered the drog, and it was contended thAt if the prisoner aftd killed her huabiDd she would have taken every

reported in our Parliamentary columns on Saturday last, was marked by a number of exciting scenes and incidents which will not be easily fer-gotten by those who witnessed them.There was a very full House and the galleries were crowded.Mr.Carbray had finished his speech in support of his Home Rule motion before the House rose at six o\u2019clock, and immediately after recess, Hon.Messrs, Mercier and Gagnon attempted to elicit from the Attorney-General what attitude the Government would take upon the subject.Mr.Tsillon\u2019s reply, that the matter was an open one and would be treated as such, drew down upoa the leader of the \"House Mr.McShane\u2019s bitterest invectives, and in a most aggressive manner, he threatened the Attorney-General with the vengeance of the Irishmen of Montreal Bast.The language employed by the member for Montreal West and the general tenor of his speech, lent con finnation to the impression that his attacks upon Mr.Taillon formed part of a concerned scheme of the Opposition to provoke Government hostilities to the motion.Mr.Mercier had little to gain in securing the adoption of a Home Rule motion which had emanat ed from the Government side of theHouse, though he doubtless expected to achieve much in the Irish constituencies by so taunting the members of the Government as to induce their opposition to and defeat of the resolution.In this, however, he was unsuccessful.Mr.Taillon, it is true, appeared very much worried at the personal attacks and charges of unfriendliness to the Irish which were levied against him, and being very unwell, and suffering much from headache, left the house.Mr.Asselin\u2019s amendment was treated but a fair and impartial man- Grand Trank Railway.PAST TRAIN SERVICE t-A-biei the: CANADIAN PACIFIC It\u2019V

Friday morning iMt, and laid down the principle that it wm beyond the prerogative of the Legislature to interfere in the affairs of other countries and of other Parliamentary assemblies.The Honorable Messrs.Rom, Taillon and Blanohet, evidently saw through the Oppo-aition tactics, and endeavored to have the House give expreMion to Quebec\u2019s warm sympathy with the Irish people, without going out of its way to create a precedent for the future introduction of foreign affairs into our Provincial Assembly.As Mr.Asselin tersely put it, there was ne consistency in expreMing sympathy with Home Rule, and acting in direct violation of its very first principles.Hon MeMrs.Lynch and Flynn did not seem to see the matter in this light, however, and spoke and voted in opposition te the amendment, which was subsequently lost.A startling rumor wm current in town on Saturday that the difference between these two ministers aud their colleagues had attain ed such proportions that they had tendered their resignations.We are in a posi tion, however, to state that the report was entirely erroneous, and that at a Cabinet meeting held on Saturday afternoon, all the Ministers were present and the utmost harmony prevailed.In ministerial circles, opinion is atill divided as to the expediency of the division upon the amendment.The disgust of the French Canadian members who voted for it under the impression that they were doing the proper thing for Ireland, and who were then called upon to vote in a contrary sense in order to adopt the main motion with unanimity, may be well understood.Mr.Deschenes exclaimed bitterly against the manner in which the House had been led, apparently forgetting, until reminded by Mr.Lynch, that the Attorney-General had been compelled by indisposition to leave his seat.However the member for Temiscouata wm bound to create a little sensation of his own, and in consequence informed the House that henceforth he should preserve hi« independence and consider himself no longer bound by th* ties of party discipline.The main motion hav ing been adopted with unanimity, the House adjourned singing the National Anthem, led off by the chief of Her Ma jesty\u2019s loyal opposition.Thus ended the and for Montreal and the West via Lake Mem phretnagog.At Harlaka Juootion with Intercolonial Railway for River du Loup, Gecouna, Sea

everything possible to meet hie views.The Times, ¦ peaking editorially of Glad-\u2022tone\u2019ajand bill, says the whole project is open to all the financial objections so forcibly urged by Mr.Chamberlain in bis letter of resignation, and above all it is exposed to the critic'em that Irish tenants have declared against paying more tbau prairie (?) value for land.The Government may, in the presence of hostile criticism, be looking in the direction of a dissalotion o f Parliament and the state of pnblic business places no obstacle in the way of an e^rly appeal to the country.The Telegraph, commenting on the land purchase bil), soys: '\u2018The financial objections to bis far too ingenious scheme are formidable enough, txside which, by proposing the appointment of a Receiver

the charge including commissions being $36,748.33 ; the commissions really representing salaries of agents who worked for the department in distributing publications and circulars, and otherwise advertising the attractions offered by Canada as a field for settlement.This cheapened passage has been found particularly aseful in the oase of TAMIMS.S OF AGRICULTURAL LABORERS, whose services are in such decided demand, and whose earnings in the mother country would not, ntherwiae, at all allow them to emigrate.Thia passage has also been fonod useful in affording a differential rate to Canada, as compared with New York, the attrac-tiona of which, aa a route and field for emi-grants, have been so mnch advertised.Cheapened or assisted passages were granted during the year to agricultural laborers, families of agricultural labores, And female domestic servants only.$alc or to fct.To Lot, 1SSS THOSE LARGE AND Extensive premises, No.62, St.John Street, (within), at present occupied by Mr.T.Oaeey.To be repaired and done up to suit a desirable tenant.For particulars, apply to J.GREAVES CL \\PHAM, N.P.April 17,1886.\tF To Let, » »t »| V'ï\\ TWO OFFICES, WITH SAFES and Blinds in good order, on the First and Second Flats Quebec Chambers and St.Lawrence Chambers, 113 and 119, St.Peter Street.For particulars, app\u2019y to J.GRKAVE3 CLAPHAM, N.P April 16, 1886]\tF To Let, Horsford's Acid Phospnate in impaired Nerve Function.Dr.C.A.Fernald, Boston, Maw., says : *T have used it in cases of impaired nerve fi action, with beneficial résulte, especially in caaes where the system ia affected by the toxic action of tobacco.\u201d Two manuscript volumes of Burns' poems have been sold in Edinburgh for 310 and 270 gnineas each, and a copy of the Kilmarnock edition of hia poema, dated 1786, for 80 guineas.Mra.Dr.Jacobi enumerate» the fundamental elements of feminine character\u2014dia-cumveoess, superficiality, immediate prac-ticalnesa or ahortrange practioalneaa and per-aonality.A FINE SHOP, HAVING thr-'e large windows and two doors, Nos.28-25, Notn Dame £q isio.Lower Town, Quebec, with Shop Fixtures, 4c.Stone Vaults, yard in rear.The Shop will be divided if necessary.Apply to L.P.SIROIS, -, N.P, Or, to O\u2019DONNELL A PARENT, 98, St.Peter Street.April IS, 1886.\ttf W sat ox* \u2018OTox\u2019ls.0 OffBoe, CITY HAUL, QUEBEC, 13th April, 1886.PUBLIC NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that sealed tenders endorsed \u201cTender for Water Fountain,\" and addressed to the undersigned, will be received up to 4 P.M., on TUESDAY, tha 20th instant, for the purchase of tha revenues of the St Ours Street Fountain for the ensu ng fiscal year.Each terder shall be on a blank form pr arable from tbe undersigned, and it thall be signed by two responsible persons as sureties for tbe folfilment of tfce contract.The Corporation do as not bind itsrlf to accept the highest nor any of the tenders.Each tender shall contain the City Treasurer's rece.pt for $100 00 as a mark of good faith on the part of tendeur, end this sum will be cenfiscated on the party who being adjudged tbe contract shall refuse to sign same.Conditions of payment are : half the amount ready cash, and acceptable notes at 8 and 6 months for the balance.No deduction u ill be granted for extension of water or any other cau-e whatever.The contracter to pay for drawing up the contract, and for A Notarial copy of same for Corporation use.CHS.BAILLAIRGE, City Engineer.April 14,1886.To Let, \tHorses.\tCattle.1885.\t.$1.640.506\t$7.508.043 1884 .\t.1.617,829\t5,681.082 1883.\t.1,633,291\t3,898,028 1882.\t.2,326,637\t2.256,330 L\u2019Ermite.First returned to the Legislative Assembly for tbe present seat on 4th June, 1880, ou the death of tbe sitting member.Re-elected by acclamation at tbe last general elections.A Conservative.\u2014St.Paul L\u2019Ermite, P.Q.Martel, Michel Dosithé Stanislas, M.D., P.(Chambly), descended from a long established family in Quebec, who came from Normandy about 1700.Son of the late Jean Martel, E«q.Boro at Vercheres, P.Q., 11th January 1838.Educated at Montreal Col-Irge.Married Dl!e.Marie Rose-de-Lima Hubert, 24th September, 1868.Received tha degree of M.D.from Victoria Uoiveraity, Montreal, 1865.Has dmq a Councillor of Chambly tint a and Mayor.Is a Justice of the Peace \u2022 Can UinV M .ad rja.ld», \u201e , \u201c'sV Biptiste Society.First returned to the Le gielative Assembly at the general election, of 1878 ;

attention is called to the ose of this native product aa a fertilizer to be used by our farming population.It is an established fact that wheat contains about 8-10 per cent, of phoepboric acid, or about sixteen pounds to each ton, and when the total ship-meute oi wheat from thia country are taken into consideration, the amount of phoephorio said taken from Canadian aoil and sent away in the wheat can easily be estimated.This loss to the aoil requires the most powerful fertilizers to replace or compensate for it, and tbe only fertilizer known of a sufficiently high grade to effect this ia phosphate of lime, when converted into saper-phosphate.THE IMMIGRATION OF THK Y BAR.The number of immigrants who arrived in Canada last year and announced their intention of settling in the country was 78,169, as against 103,824 in 1884, and 133,624 m 1883.The Minister says on thia subject :\u2014\" Later correspondence leads me to take a hopeful view of the proepeotsof immigration to Canada daring 1886.The opening of the Canadian Pacific railway cannot fail to be an important atimuius in attracting immigration to the vast fertile areas of the Canadian Northwest and to the great undeveloped resonroes of the Pacific seaboard provinoe of the Dominion, British Colombia.Although the immigration to Manitoba and Northwest territories was not nearly as large as it was confidently believed it would be, before tbe disturbing causes to which I have referred came into operation, it was marked by a hopeful feature, viz., the commencement of colonies of Get mar a, Scandinavians, Icelanders, and Hungarian» on nominal reserves, which although not explosive of any other entries, have been yet found sufficient to furnish lDl aDt ?oI?ni\u201c of 1116 nationalities referred to, and which there ia reason to be-.'hV*\u2019 W'11 k* 8r**tly strengthened during the coming towon, the popnut.an of mixed European raoea being thus promoted.The ïïiïtë'SSXT wh0 ^ News from Winnipeg.A WILD SCENE.WinnIpxo, Man., April 17\u2014A wild scene oocnrred at the sitting of the Royal Commis \u2022ion, which is investigating the charges against Premier Norquay, yesterday.Mr.Martin, a member of tbe Legislatsre and a lawyer, was in the box, and Mr.Hogel was cross-examining him.Personalities soon ensued, resulting iu a ohalleogo to fight, which was several times repeated.Mr.McArthur, Q.C., also got dragged io, and the commissioner had groat difficulty in preventing a general breach of the peace in the room.Before Judge Richardson at Reg>na yes terday, three parties from Qu'Appelle, for illicit distillation, were tried and fined in amounta ranging from $160 to $900 and imprisonment of from two to seven months.Harry Forsyth, of the Indian Department, Regina, died auddenly yesterday.Forty mounted police have left Regina for patrol service along the boundary of Man' ba to Fort MacLeod.3U0- WASHINGTON LETTER.(From our Regular Correspondent.) Washington, April 14th, 1886.\u2014The people of tbe Capital have had another fright about the Washington Monument.A rumor spread like wildfire that the noble structure was cracking and was doomed.It stands between the Potomac river and Babcock Lake, and the recent heavy rains which have satpr ated its foundations and raised the surround-ing waters naturally gave credence to the report.At different points in the city crowds of people were scrutinizing the monument through opera glasses.What appeared to be the largest fissure or a gaping crack was about fifteen feet below the 500 foot level.The sensation soon subsided, however.The dark streaks on tbe white marble were not cracks at all.They were only stains at certain ver tioal and horisontal joints caused by neglect of the cleaning process on the part of the workmen io their haste to complete the struc tore.The interior of the monument is now prac tically completed.The iron stairway leading to the snmmit is to have ten elevator stages, each of which will run out to the elevator \u2022haft at every fifty feet of the ascent.Upon the completion of this stairway it was intended to afford the public every facility for seeing the moonment by issuing passes, and providing those who wished to climb to tbe top with a lantern.But as there are no provisions tor keeping a watchman on hand, every opportunity would be given to vandals and relic banters to deface the structure, either by tampering with the memorial atones or by writing their names upon the walls, Whenever Congreas-provides custody for the monument, and makes an appropriation for rnnning the elevator, it will be open to the public aud visitors may roam up and down it at will.All the gossip about a new Secretary of the Treunry will have to sobside for a time.The President holds to the belief that his favorite adviser will fully recover, despite the doctor's opinion that Mr.Manning will never be able again at tbe Cabinet councils.Tbe t does not expect the sick Secretary to assist President GENERAL INTELLIGENCE.WISE AND OTHERWISE.What Everybody Should Know.The three story store, situated No.87, 8t.Peter Street, and 44, Sault-nu-Matelot Street, now occupied by Gauvreau, Pelletier A Cie, Wholesale Dry Goods.Apply to GAUVREAU, PELLETIER A CIE.April 10, 1886.\t^ m.To Let, 0OTTAGE ON MAPLE pec will again be able to devote himself ao exclusively to bueiness aa he has in the past, but he thinks the harden of Mr.Manning\u2019s work can be lightened by shifting it on others.At any rate the President will not even consider the \u2022abject of a new Secretary until Mr.Manning indicates to bim what be would like to have done, and the latter may name hia own successor.The library bill appropriates $500,000 to commence the construction of a building for the library of Congreas, on a site directly e.Ht of the Capitol.It creates a commission cun- j \u2022istiog of the Secretary of the Interior, the < Architect of the Capitol, and the Libraritu uf Congreas, who shall be authorized to make j the contracta, and it farther appropriates a sum of not more than $550,000 for the purchase of the land.The bill to enlarge the White Housu has been reported favorably to the Senate, snd is expected to pass that body by a unanimous vote.The popularity of the measure is cx-plained by tbe fact that nearly every Semtor has an eye of faith on the old mansion as a future plaoe of residence for himself.The Chaplain of the Houae, whose morning prayers were creating so much sensation a fortnight ago, and who has been praying \u2019 quite conservatively since, has made another invocation in which he gave a deplorable picture of the times.He stated that the masaea of men were drifting farther and farther from the churches, educated men were asking \u201cU life worth living aud men in the market plaoea ware teaching tbe dootrinee of despair, pessimism, agnosticism and atheism ; scarcely a day passed but brought to light some new evil to crimson the face of the patriot.After itemizing a long list of the worst transgressions, he closed by saying that Divine obanty took tbe form of a machine and was administered by proxy, and that our boasted civilization was stained with blots as 1 blaok as death.Apropos of tbe subject, although it ia be- t lieved throughout the country that thia ia tbe most demoralized city in the land, there ia a great deal of Christian work done here in Washington It goes on silently in many homes, but it gees ou constantly and it fills the churches on Sundsy with audiences of such size as are found in few places in the world,\t1 Industry is the -soul of business, and the key-stone of prosperity\u2014Barnoby Rudge.Use the safe, pleasant, and effectual worm killer, Mother Graves Worm Exterminator ;
