oy Vor.XXX., Nxw Sais.Cotemporary Press and Nowa \u2014_\u2014 THE NORTH.WEST TROUBLE.The Winnipeg Nor'- Wester gives the following ex inst the Carlton sitair :\u2014 + The difficulties which have given rise to so much speculation seem to | two-fold.There is a settlement of fifty or sixty families, consisting chiefly of French half.breeds, on the south branch of the Saskatchewan, aud distant up stream from Prince Albert, about fifty miles, and westward from Fort Pelly in a straight course about two hundred miles, nod eastward from Fort Carlton about thirty-five miles, called Buint Laurent.At this place there is a Roman Catholic mission station.The settlers are mostly engaged in hunting on \u2018the great plains\u2019 which sre situated between the south branch of tho Sasket-h- eweu and Battle rivers.Nu justice of the peace or officer of the law haa been appointed to, or resides at this settlement.\u2018The location of the muunted police at Fost Pelly is too far uway to be of any ww in establishing or maintaining law and order here, or anywhere else, where they are ever likely to be requir.«d.bho residents of St, Laurent havo long complained that they bad no civil authority constituted over them, and that the rights of all engaged in tho chase ware invaded mud seriously affected for the want ef the establishing and enforcing of certain hunting regulations, which should Le obligatory upen all; anil hey made theso grievances the sub.sect of frequent petitions to His Exed ency the Licut-Governor, and to the North.West Council, and lastly to the Minister of the Interior when West [ast summer\u2014but all without avail.They finally resolved to constitute a temporary government for themselves ; and accordingly they elected a head whom they called a president, and a ceunnil of advisers by whom ordinances were passed fur the governmeut of themselves and the enforcing of the righte of the one against the other ; and they set upregulations laying Jown certain rules, and amon, other things, defining the period at which thebunting season should commence, and at which time (but not before) all might engage in the chase.Ore Gabriel Dumond was chosen the president.His suthority has been exervised over the members of the colony for months without attracting any observa tion ; and it might bave cantinued without note bad not the exercise of lawlows authority by Lim upon some traders and huaters who, having been to Winnipeg for supplies, were making their va: Pack into the ¢ great laine,\u201d the range of the buffalo, west of Bt.urent, contrary to the regulations establish.¢d by Dumond aud his council, challenged the attention of the peoploof the North-West.Dumond and his council decided that the buntershad violated their laws ; and they adjudged all their property and outfit forfeited, and proceeded fore] to take, and did accordingly forcibly take and appropriate to themselves, tho greater part, if not all, the horses, carts and supplica of these traders and hunters ; and they assert and declare they will enforce their laws of the chase upon all engaging in hunting on \u2018 the plains This is one part of the sensation, je other relates to the Indians.It is said that Mr.Laird promised the Crees owning the country northwest of the Qu\u2019 Appelle treaty territory, and southward of lied Deer river, that a treaty ehould be concluded with them for the cession of their country about this time: and that a representative of the Queen would meet them on the north branchof the Saskatchewan at a certain time and at a certain point above Fort Carlton.Accordingiy a large encampment of these Indians has tuken place at » time and place appointed.They have Lean waiting Tatiently for the wise man from the East or his representative to meet them and conclude a treaty.The r Indian supposed when he promised he would fulfil.Had they kuown Lim as the wkite man knows Lim, they would put just as little faith in his word ts the white man does.They now find no one in to meet them ; and they feel indignant, and possibly have made, and may still make, somo demonstrations of disappointed hopes end espectations.It in but natural they should.There is a half-breed with them married to a daughter of ome of the moat pwerfal of their chiefs, by the name of adrupie, who, while attached to the Indians, is loyal to the Queen and to law and order.Ile will do what he can to prevent.any overt acts which may compromise the Indiana: and will doubtless be successful LORD DUFFERIN'S SPEECH.Le Journal de Queber, speaking of the speoch recently delivered by Lord Dufferin before the Canadas Club, saya: \u201cIt is certainly one of the most remarkable that the Governor has ever delivered ; ita atyle is rich and almost «xuberant ; it is, as the Timre said of oneo the lectures of Cardinal Wiseman, a fabric which sustains itself by the richness aud abundance of ita ornaments.Its diction is pure, and ita shading, almost infinitely varied, are of extreme delicateness.It is easy to see that in face of a like text the bent translation could but be a psle and sickly reflection, and ao the translator in condemned to the ungrateful tack of only giving the mere thread of this tissue, eo rich in colors, so brilliznt, and in harmony, so perfect the ene with tho other.Ie in the first Governor General who bas 50 fully and so loyally done justice to tho Canadiun people, rendered justice to its fidelity and devotion to the British crown ; to its fidelity te ita destinies, present and future; to its comprehension of those destinies, to ita practical apirit, and to its emi- neatly constitutional sentiment ; equal justios to the French portion of one people whose future is such à grand one.Yee, the French.Canadians understand and practice conatita- tional goremment of which they have taken the el from the Mother Country, whore they find liberty and the full development of all that which ennobles and benefits mankind.But we must have auflicdent candor to acknowledge that the contrast of the two races have \u2018been, useful to both and that we have from the Iinglish people that rpirit of compromise which is not perhaps as logical es & theorem or as inflexible as an equation, but which oertainly makes more easy the working of the government of the poople and guides by an ensicr rond their destines to better resulta.A well-known statesman re sently nakod 8 member of the Canadian House of Commons if the intellectual atandard of the Canadian Toure had risen or fallen during his experience.The member replied, ¢ The number of intellectual heads perhapa diminishes, bat the eral standard of the Chamber is considerably higher.Brilliant orators are rarer, but practical and really useful men are much more numerous.\u2019 6 staterman to whotn we have alluded concurring in this estimate added, \u2018 The general standard of your House is in no way inferior to that of the ¥nglish House of Commons.\u201d This appreciation based upon hin double experience was a at testimony for us.Moreover, the corro- tion of thls opinion is almost universal, that the Parliament of Canada considered in its objects ita working and its practioal ve- sults, {athe second only the Britlsh Empire.\u201d THE HALF-DAY SCHOOL.The manual and industries of life are the basin of intellectnal power.This statement in literally and philosophically true ; but con only be made Avaliable tn .of rducation, mprovin, je first ten years of schooling.ta from 1% 14 years, To differ ent manner from that pumued in s system tequiting the omission thess industries.je eagle Plucking the feathers from his wings, would imitate the child's anhool of the pa Development has its two departments, ily and mental, na really an existence.Bodify development crippled means mental development tenfold crippled.Ac @ late writer forcibly cxpresses it: \u201c Instinot, vix., vital instinct, with terribly savage and lrresis- tible will, Jom stra\u2019 ght to ita object, the con.rervaticn the race.It will presceve the Toce, that is all.It has no notion of progress.Reason, therefore, must be the architect of the brain.\u2019 Now if this instinctive impules prompt to action and require it, the school which restrains action oumes in conflict with it.But everything for lifo: and energy abstracted from the system is abstracted from the brain by this sloepless, overmastering power, which must keep the hesrt boating, and sll the functions of life in motion ; no wat.ter if the brain falls into partial suspension of its functions.Hence it happens this animal rule, bearing Îta most rigid away in childhood, sp propriates, more or less, nearly the whole force and vigor of life, aa the entire volume is increased or diminished, acoording ms action and appetite wre stimulated or restrained Thus, while health seems to suffer less, snd does suffer less, in the tender period of chi Lcod, the mind and its organ, the brain, fur more than at a succeeding age, more ruled ty reason and less by animal impulse.For the of Lodily safety and mental puralyais, this result of health and feeble- miudednces in study has been no uniform, that writers on education have overlooked the great mental disaster which has been wrought: not under their hands, but mostly those of immature young Indies; and thelr writings have been taken up With mental and bodily failures, witnessed in older pupils of their own.As confirming this solution of the problem, our attention is called to the ancseas of those ¢chools which have allowed ample privileges for freedom and action in en entire half of cach day out of school.It is reported in the experiment with the younger class of school.goers in England, they were farther advanced in learning, by attending school three hours a day, for three years, than those attending six hours daily were in six years, at one-half the duily expense for the former ; thus making one Loeur farther than four, and one dollar farther than four dollars.Of sn older age, employed in factories, in cno case to the number of 500, in Manchester J'ng., the gentleman owning the works says Le pays the expenses of their instruction, and suves money by cxpending a large sum, fer L(y do more work with this schooling than they would without, Further: the commis.sicners who examined the non-laboring national schools, state that the workers were the better scholars: thus five hundred were found to accomplish more in the purposes of life than an average of 1.000 separately employed.Other examples in various countries of Europe and in our own havo established the same results.Iabit has kept the hol.managing world hesitating till the f.r: of testimony is overwhelming.Since the daily three hours must go to # ite if not spent in school, by children of the age we are speaking of, and more work can be secured, with better order snd health, therefore the motive for vacations cannot be su posed to require that less than forty wee per year, and 400 in the ten years, with six sessions a weck, will be necessary.With » more perfect development, and truer life, maintained when school is in session than when the sessions cesse, doubtless four terms of twelve wecks muy be secured in cach year, and the entire childhood devoted, in harmony with its design, to intellectual wth.The ides of mentul growth trul belonging, liko bodily growth, to childhood, has perfect con- firmativn in the cumulative power of memory ; and the constructive elastic faculties which receive, from the memory and the other re- ecptive faculties, contributions from the uni- verre of nature and truth.But the promised glorious development of humanity dwindles to the moral and iuteliec- tual dwarf of the present and the past, unless all the energies of vital life are brought into the school daily, for all thefreehnessof camest work end action bythe scholar, who has made assault upon and subdued his portion of the earth.He who is to rule iu the wold of indgilegss rmusg first rule In that of matter.New! 8, an the ruin of a sin, misery, and a night-cursed world attests the merits of the old.ln the new, regenerated world the mind of the child must grow to be morally, religiously, and in- tellertually a man in intellect, when he shall reach manly stature.No system of education has surveyed the world of mind.No power Las taken jon of the unexplored d main of the intellect.No system hasconceived that the fower known to lie Intent in all ordinary intellects can have all their every-day strapth crcupied in scientific action and progres.The earning of bread, for which the chiof end of men hus been ever remitted,\u2014the carning of bread is the enabling proeess.The first thing for a child to do who iain school, not having within himself and coursing to his Vrain all the en: he can appropriate from the secretions of tho universe, the first thing is to fly out to work for his brain, ass starving man would for his stomach.In the realm of intellect, equal, even-handed justice is dealt out to all.Instead of \u201cno royal rosd to geometry,\u201d there isa royal road to knowledge for all, for an ever-going school bears the same relation to the utilizing childhood as civil government does to the utilizing of manhuod.Ureedy parents may grudge the time daily spent in \u2018school, but God meant it should be daily spent there, and gave the child & constitution whose cfliciency for labor demands it.Equally co-operating, body and mind, will secure stronger digestion, Letter appetite, stronger body, limbs, and muscles, a more perfect aptitude, disposition and resolution, and noceeurily higher industrial, as well as intellectual results, than any other form of treating the child.For what but harmonious action were all these Luman powers combined in the child ?Tho naturalist will imperatively insist upon our credence, which we willingly Fi toto some structure of a hygone age, of which he shows a few bones: Tot wo can show Uod's moet perfect cherished object of creation, and insist that infantology ia the most important science.We are not very nice.Gives little thought; show some mercy.God's infinite labor for the enlightenment of man cannot casily be thwarted.lie concentrates his vast resources upon this purpose of bis infinite mind.If systems must oppose him, let them be alittle leas deadly and direct.Let them not go to the currents of life and shrink them up ; to the heart and enfesble it: to the stomach and impair it; to the limbs and take their et © tothe munrden and shrivel them.Of course to cut off all tho resources of the brain and nervon in thin manner, is & mistaken stem's way of starving out and subduing the citadel.\"If God had not meant labor to promote _intellectunlity, he would not have combined it in a plan of enlightenment, But while intcllectaslity will free all feom the slavery and drudgery of labor, it certainly will ive the grand army of teachers its bene.fite.In the country, a home, enriched by the culture of All tho time vot required in the three hours\u2019 school, and ation for its esay routine; with its fruits, lowers, and its peta, may furnish a model home, to which talent snd ambition aball aim, and wheto they may find their reward.In the city the lighter ferme of artistic labor may be equally available.To realize these it économies, it ia ae neceseary to attach the child to life and labor at the beginning of one or other of ite daily periods, morning or midday, as st the beginning of hia daily school to connect him with that.\u2014 Æ.ÆM.Ferrer, in N.B.Journal of Æéucation.PIIYSICAL EDUCATION IN GIRLS SCHOOLS.DT SADAN A.TLANLIN, \u2018We have read many articles recently, setting forth the necd on the part of the young ladies of our public end private schools, of & more thorough Ikmowledge of their physiologion] situcture.For à long time we have thought acriously en this subject, and bave felt that some change was needed Inthe physical education of our girls.Too much time has been spent in cramming thelr brains with Latin and Greek, with Mathematics and the Sciences, while we fave neglected to teach them the simplest lawn that govern their own being.Every fra we nec result of this false method of teaching.Girls lute for High Schools and Academies, igicain loarni accomplished young

Lut urged on by the example of these goud women who have already begun a noble work in this direction, we felt wo might safely follow the path of such brave Jloueers.Ace cordingly, we prepared à es vf familier talke on the physiology, anatomy, and hyyiens of the peculiar structure und functions of the female organization.These we havo delivered at different times, during the past term, to the girls of the acnivr (Juss.They were rojuired to tuke notes, au in otber recitations, and afterwards to write them out in full, und tu pasa An cxamination on them.This, of course, was at first an experiment.We were s Jittlo doubtful ourselves in regnrl to it.But the result Las been a success.Tis girls have Leen eager, attentive listeners: u- 4 their cloar, sensible questions have shown uf what vital importance this subject is to them.The scivntific terms were mastered ia a rhort time, and can Le used now with case.More derply than before do we see the need of this work.Many of us de not

many mors the mother iu restrained by & fucling of false delicacy.Is it uot to the teacher, then, that girls must look fur instruction?We think so.À teacher's duty doce rot end when she aeads her pupils cut into the world with strong, well-disiplined minds, They should have strong, healthy bodies as will.Viewed in this light, the teacher's calling becomzs the most rncred and responsible of all.What wehave done in our small way, can be continuid bythe lady ter-Lers cleswiscre.\u2018Chin is a grand field in which to work, and wa sincerely believe that if the seed issewn with a careful

recent oration upon Daniel V'Cenndll.Toor O'Cunnell ! how his soul would gricre at the use that is being made of his name in the interests of A rause previsely the reverse of that Liberty in whose bchslf he lubored! How precious it is to the Church of Rume to bave one liberator who liv- ol and died without falling out with the whole priesthuod, as a body, although Leth before and after death he had tho most outspoken detractors aming tho clergy.Another century will hardly pus without the proper steps being taken to establish a throne in heaven for 1lanicl, under the title of saint, Futher Murphy's address was not s0 much about Daniel O'Connell, with whom Lo must have the least possible sympathy, but abou the degradationof Ireland and the brutal tyranny of England, à subject which fits iteell admirably to his tongue.One of the orators said, few Irisk nen of the present day could believe, unless they were assurod by such literary men an be, that such diabolical rontri- vance as the penal laws over could have existed.This is a testimony to the fact that the tyranny epoken of, whatever H was, has boon pretty thoroughly wwept away.Mr, Curran did not indecd make very plain what this tyranny waa, It certainly would be very alwurd to discnra the penal laws of put conturiea in the light of the freedom of tho present.Certainly no Roman Cathe.lic nation ever acted more mildly under almilar circumstances, end Father Murphy would not dare to nllege that the freedom of religion for which he makes such blatant claim, wonld for a moment be granted or thought of by bis own Church in favor of any other faith.The coolness of all this talk on the part of an Ultramontane ia therefore hnrd to qualify.fet us look upon these roatrictions in the light of history.Ireland was cenquered by n Norman king at the bidding of an Italian bishop, who took it upon him to hand aver that island to the said Norman.When, ages after, the successors of the Norman monarchs power beeame Protestant, they found themselves rulersofs country in which they had a large number of loyal ruhjects, and à very large number of those whoee religions guides taught them dislogalty an a partof their religion.Not to hinder freedom of religlon,tnt to restrain the political operation of this disloyal teanhing, the penal lawa were (nacted.(Connell was certainly 6 mighty man, and had two tremendons tasks before him.One was to convinoe the English that his Catholin countrymen were to be trusted In their loyalty, notwithstanding thelr Italianised creed and the demands of Rome.The other was to keep his own countrymen sufficiently in check, that they might not be- lie these aseurances at every tara.Laglend\u2014 TIE literty-leving abovo all nations, anl thovery autipudes of what Father Murphy

1Lealth Ass).«lation concerning the city water supply to protest most vigorously against the injury done to the city by such statements, whih were, as bo held, utterly without foundation.Tle neserts that the water used in Montreal from the Ottawa River is equal for human coneumption to any water où this continent.Frem tbe Knowledge which Lis business ass Cruggist gives him of the complaints incident to strangers visiting tho city, be is able toadd that since the city water bas bcen obtuined from its present source, complaists referable to the water have almost never come under his knowledge, although the reverse wns the case when the supply came from the east end of the city.lle analyzes a week's mottulity re turns, and finds in 175 casce not one traceable to water, and 123 of infants under one year wheso érinking water is presumably pretty well filtered, and much more likely to be winted with alevhol than with animaleulos.Fuul stenches and defective drainage are the real cuurca of evils for which water is Lumed, wbile the foundling hospitls greatly swell the figures.We have now 3 letter from the same writer enlarging on the dun:age to business sure to result from surh etcries, likely to grow as they travel, and to Le engerly cauglit up by interested parties elsewhere.Further and more serious exa- minaticn of tho question have only convinoed Lim of the utter bacclessnoss of the charge ogninat our water, and he quotes travellers who know the water used in Boston, New York und I'biladelphia, to the effect that ours is best.No filter, whether at the Wator- \u2018Works or in the house, would he says, remove the ingredients in the water most likely to give it en aperient quality, if such it had, and « canvas-bag filter on the tap will remnve sand, &ec., gathered at times when rough weather stirs up the aqueduct, without the neccesity of filtering all the water used for wat-r- ing the streets and flushing the sewers.As for animalcules which cannot be discovered without ana.se.mn divturb bis mind about them.\u201d Mr.Gardner adds: \u201cThe Montreal Gazet!s, in its re- \u201cmarks on this question, says: \u2018This is a \u201cquestion in which tectotalers should + practically interest themselves.\u201d It is my ¢ cpinion that travellers would suffer less Ly * using tho water pure from our noble river \u201c than by mixing it with brandy, and sani.* tarians, instead of charging the water Gad \u201c has given us with producing disease, should \u201c rome forward and join in the battle against a * foe that is producing disease and death all « around, and other evils which it requires no \u201c microscope to discover.\u201c There in a great deal of common sense in all this with which businees men will sympathize.Montreal has certainly enough of real sourcas of damago to ita sanitery repntation\u2014what with smallpox, infant mortality, villsoous butcher's moat, and the like\u2014without indulging in any over-nice grumbling about water.The dis- cunsion of sll these matters is undoubtedly healthy, and the only way to get at the truth and we bave, therofore, to thank those gontle- men who have made special study of them, and brought them before the public.The matter onne before ua should, howcrer, not be laid down till we find the exact amount of truth in the charge, so that it may not be proclaimed to the world in à worse light than the true one, st THE JACQUES CARTIER BANK STATEMENT.Undoubtedly the feature most startling to the general public in the statement which was 1rescuted to the rharcholders of the Jacques Cartier lank at their mosting on Tuesday Was the revelation of the falsity oftherworn retarns which bad been made by the Bank officials.The wiping out of the capital, which it is probatle is almost complete, affects only the rharcholders, and the delay which will con- scuently take place in settling claims, althengh slanting » larger number, will nat likely be more than delay, except the inconvenience and lose of interest, but that the «worn returna of ene bank ahould be no guide to the actual state of its affairs tends to cast suspicion on the returns of all banks, and will therefore, be a matter of concen to nearly every intelligent person in the community.That a bank official should swear that the bank had $126,000 inapecie when it had lese than 43,600 ia in explicable and can not bo acceanted for by Mr, Cott'a avermont that he had been æcif-deceived, through laboring under heavy responsibilitien and anxieties.The large amount stated to be due from foreign bankers, when the balance was really tbe other way, tho statemont of the doposits at three times their amount, and the avermont that there was a reserve fund of 6275,000, when 4185.000 of the amount was in bills no long part due es to be outlawed, could not havo been unwittingly made by any banker in his senecr, and Mr.Cotté han certainly never appeared to be deprived of his.It cannot but be that those who are responsible for such aworn mis-statements have brought themaelvos within therange of the civil lawand also of the criml- inal, ro far as they knowingly made them, and it ecems impossible but that this must have bern the case with some of them.Under these circumstances a proserntion would appear to be fmperativoly oslled for in the pub.Lio intereste, as, although there is such oonfl.dcnoe in other institutions that these revels- ticns will not affect then, such things cannot be permitted to be dome with impunity, or other bank officials, if they should ever get into #irsits, might feol tempted to pursue à similar curse.Perronal feelings of sympathy for those MONTREAL WITNESS.who find thems ves in such an unenviable porition should Lot be permitted to overrule the greut public interests which necossitate suck, action.The probabilities in favor of raving anything out of the wreck donot seem Lright, as when $185,000 of outlawed biils are riturmed ns asecte, the $600,000 past due Lille, and the §702,000 ovardrgwn accounts would not seem likely to yleld much, while the large amount advanced to the Northern Colonization Railway is undoubtedly locked up for some time to come.Bume good may be expected from this ill wind, and itis that if any of our chartered banks have slipped into uny laxity of management, they will be warned by the destruction which bas overtaken this institution to sot their house in order.THE CHARACTER OP THE BRITISH ARMY.Some military critios in the House of Com- wens have bad à good deul to say about the youth and unfitness for tervice ofmany of the recruits wlio are being enrolled in the British Army, ard there seemed to be a dispasition on the purt of many English journals, includ.ivg the Tires to nocept their criticisms ss huving a good measure of truth.Ilovever euime manuvres bave recently been taking place ut Aldershott under rather unfavor- alle circumstances, as there has boen n great deal of rain, and the way in which the men cndured some pretty hard servico has bardiy tome out the oplnions which huve been expressed about them.Two divi- tivna of nine thousand men each were engaged: tho troops not buing picked, but a fair repre- entation of the whee army, men enlisted under à epe-ial whort service system having bern prosent in the usual proportion.The result Las been that, notwithstaading the un.fuvoratle weather, is ono day's march of sev- entecn miles in heary marching order, only reventeen men dropped out of tho ranks, and in the other division there was the same average of ono man per mile.Another day ina march of twenty miles, part at tho double and over hilly ground, \u2018ut the men not carrying their knapsacks, only rix fell out, and on cue day during a heavy fall of ruin, the men agsin not carrying their knapsacks, not a mon fell out in & march of sixteen miles.Independent military authority also states that the men not only marched, but marchod well, and the Timesconsiders that the behavior of the troops upon their marches could hardly have iwen better if they had been the most scasoned soldiers of the most picked ages, and euys that therohas Leenno trace in the soldiers of the fecbleress which 1heir detractors would have led people to expect.The jour- £ul continues that had the men been of the fectlo physiquo an: the unsollierty character which huve been ascribed to them, these de- fucta could not have failed to become apparent duringthefortaiglt's imanv-avrer,asthoground on which the campn were pits Led had been converted into a bog Ly the heavy rains, and this necessitated an unusual amount of labor in cutting drains and in other ways, while sharp marches and active zuanœuvres wore none the less cal:vd for.It is estisfactory tofind, when 80 rwy people are devoling themselves to proving thet Britain has lost ull influence in European councils, becauss of the smallness of the army which she could put in the field, that the troops which she has are geod, and would be able to sustain the kish reputation which Dritish solliers have acquired in my nurs, A MOB-RULED CITY.We nocd not mow discuss the metits of Ald.McCord's by-law: thst there were many things in it open to discussion needs not to be said.It is sufficient at present to know that our City Council, in deciding upen its merits, submitted to the dictation of an unressoning mob.The City Council and its servants, and the city it repriscuts, are to-day in a cringing posture bencath tho lash of the untamal le giant called the Mob, ready to do whatever he enforces with his brutal hand.Nothing bas been done to punish the offand- ers,\u2014we know not now what can be done.Everyone is or pretends to ba entirely in the dark as to who did it.A common rough and a young tailor's apprentice, with stones in their pockets, are the only sinners identified, and neither of them is worth punishing.The great question now is, how long arc we to submit to such forms of dictation ?A weapon has been put into the hands of every contemptible demagogue to decide what shall and what shall not be made law in the city, and the demagogue would bo contemptible indeed that could not, afte such an example, carry out the same game that was enmoted on Monday night.He has only to play à little upon the national prejudices of peoples whose oduca.tion is insufiicient to guide thom in the commonest affairs of life, and he has an army of ten thousand people at his call, wherewith t> control the City Council, but which ncit: æ he nor any one else conld pretend to control in turn, and which will aa likely aa not procesd to further deeds of violence, yet the demagogue will never be arrested.It is true that à vory emall number of determinod men well under command can face n mob of al most any size; but such a force, equal to the oocmsion, was on Monday night lamentably lacking.Shall we double our police force, and increase its competency by securing a higher class of men for 16 devem top 4e bvstura?ALU we mim the citizens in large numbers for emergencios ?We haveno doubt that should another such movement be threatened many thousand spo.cial constables could be obtained as volunteers, who would not lack the courage to es that the City Council had at least freedom to discursand decidé matters in accordance with the individual consciances of its members, so that our representatives need havo no further excuse for allowing themselves to be bullied.14, however, it 1a thought that the polics force can be #0 strengthened and organised ne to es- cure the poace in the future, lot this be done at whatever cost.Montreal can afford any expenditure better than the character under which she now labors beforo the world.Try Bxooring Arras.\u2014After many threats and unheeded warnings, & life has had to be racrificed at last in order to put Astop to the intolerant rowdyism that has prevailed for enme timo back in this city.Beveral cascaof as.eaulta, to use a mild phrase, upon females, were brought before our courts of justics recently, and the participators in them having bom dealt with so lightly, that aggrieved parties have evidently resolvod to take the mutter into their own bands.The defendants in this cass, who are not, eo far as appears, vagrants as represented by the deposition of Meehan, but two married women, whose husbands were away from them at the time, hed themselves been previously attacked, and one of them it, appears, criminally assaulted, and the police not only informed of thefaot,but ae a proot supplied with some of the large stones which had been thrown into the isolated dwelling with a view to frightening the helpless ia- mats into subjection, The people ovideatly bad culy very moderate mcans, but notwithstanding that, they weut to the oxponse of purchasing, to them a rather costly and dangerous wrapon of dofenss, which bas been used with fatal elfoct.la Torcuto ins similar state of things the lash has Deen of late repeatedly usid.1t will, wo are preparcd to say, not be called for very often.It is said to be very rare that « person who has had personal acquaintance with this punishment forgets it even la bis drunkest sud most ungovernable moments.Org Fexare Prisoxess.\u2014 Female prisoners are to bo placed in the charge of the nuns, at a certain cost to the country for thelr keeping.They are to be employed at hard labor, either t teasing oakwn or in some useful employment.The former is the ordinary business givea to prisoners in Montreal.We understand that a manufacture hes offured twelve and à half cents a dey for the work of the female prisoners as scamstroases, a rate of pay- nt from which he ought to be able to derive very good profit, \u2014while, at the same time, it is said te cover four cents mors than the cost of maintaining the prisoners.There can be no question whatever between the two methods of employing them at useful and at useless Isbor.It is simply absurd to make prisoners a burden upon the honest community for the sake of saving the honest community the competition of their labor.If their work ia properly contracted for there will always be foun! a sulicient competition for it to secure its full value in the market.We should think that with such competition tor ite great deal moro than twelveand a half conta could be got for it, erudo and untrained as it is, and so long aa its full value is paid for it, thore can be no damage to industry arising from competition with it.\u2014 When it is propowed to contest some of the elections in the District of Quebec which were gained by the Conservatives through the exercise of spiritual terrors by the prissts, the Mincree and Nowreau Monde cry out that this is persecution of the Church.The Noucwau Monde says the clergy was only legitimately exercising its influence in favor of * Christian politics,\u201d represented, of course, by such im- macnlate men a8 Danserean and Chaploau.EDITORIAL NOTES.\u2014
