because I was too ilL** The prisorer gave a full and circum-atantial history of his doings since Christmas, and said Detective Roper only identified him as having been with Cunningham after having bad some witness to point him out.It was expected the defense would produce strong evidence to establish an alibi for the prisoners and the failurs to do so caused general surprise.Mr, Little, special

embodying a large number, but not all of the provisions of the Irish Crimes Act.HOUSE OF COMMONS.Mr.Gladstone stated in the Commons that Russia\u2019s reply to the proposals concerning the Afghan agreement has been awaited for some days.A portion of the papers relating to the frontier question would be circulated tomorrow, but as the negotiations were incomplete the papers would be broken off at the Penjdeh incident.Concerning the business of the session, Mr.Gladstone said the Government intended to deal with the Scotch Crofter\u2019s Bill, the Scottish Secretary Bill and the Irish Crimes Act.He regretted that during the present session it would be impossible to deal with the Local Government of Ireland Bill and the bill relating to the purchase of land iu Ireland.Regarding the report that Russia had given intimation of t demand to have a Russian representative at Cabul, Mr.tiladstono said he knew nothing of it.Referring to the Crimea Act, he said he would state without entering into details that the Government intended to embody the various provisions in that act which they deemed to be both valuable aud equitable.(This statement was greeted with groans by the Parnellites.) It would be the duty of the Government to press the House to paee the bill into law.W ere the conditions more favorable, the Government would be most anxious to deal with the question of local self-government in Ireland, and that of land purchase ; both were measures towards which the Government felt that they had unfulfilled obligations.It was with great regret that the Government announced their inability to ask the House to deal with those measures during the present session.-No lady of refinement likes to resort to superficial deidoea to supply % becoming semblance of her

etc.GREAT BRITAIN.London, May 16\u2014Copies of the revised version of the Old Testament were given to the newspapers at midnight last night.All the papers this morning contain copious extracts from the work.This revision is the most important event in the history of the English Bible 'since the publication of the King James\u2019 translation, in 1611.It involves no changes of the Hebrew text, no older manuscript than the Masoletic having been discovered, and the idiom of the authorized version is most carefully preserved, out of regard for the conservative feeling of the church Tn its attachment for the language of the old version.All errors of translation, however, have been removed and the revision will be pronounced by every competent Bible reader to be a very great improvement.It presents the results of the combined labor of a large number of the best Hebrew and Biblican scholars of England and the United States, most of them professors of Hebrew in universities and seminaries.It has more over the advantage of the vast advances of the last fifty years in Oriental philology, biblical geography, history and anMquities, all of which were but imperfectly understood by the forty-seven translators of Kiug James.The new version is not a good version in place of a bad one, bat a great improvement of a good version.So much time elapsed in the preli minary communications between America and England that final arrangements for the American Committee selected to participate in the work of revision were not made until the summer of 1872.Those arrangements were concluded by Dr.Schaff, who visited England that summer for the purpose.On his return in the autumn the Committee began its work Though nearly twwo years later than the English companies in beginning the work, they pressed forward with sach activity that they were enabled to completo it contemporaneously with their Eoglish brethren.The whole Bible, after these 12 years of labor, appears in its revised English version before tha people of Great Britain and America.The revised version is now a fact of history.Those who have labored in the preparation of it have carefully aud conscientiously examined and re-examined every verse, sentence and word.They now commit it to the English-speaking world, knowing that that book will live white critics will die, and wishing only that their labors may contribute in this generation or ' the coming ones to make the scriptures clearer in their true meaning to all men of the Eoglish race.The Bible appears bound with the New Testament.The preface opens with a statement of the general principles on which the revision has been condncted.Terms of natural history are only changed where it is certain the authorized version is incorrect.In some words of frequent occurrence in the authorized version being either inadequate or inconsistent, changes have been introdnoed with as much uniformity as practicable.Fargus, the author

Mrs.Lewiston carrying the yonegest child, another child aged 10 and the hired man following.Lewiston made several frantic \u2019 efforts to reach the children asleep np-staira, but as there waa no door or window throngh which this could be done, except a window on the side of the house already iu flames, he was powerless.The burned children were four boys, aged 18, 15, 6 aud 4, and a girl aged 10.Mrs.Lewiston was severely burned.Aostin, Tex., May 15\u2014The Governor has received « telegram from Major More, Snperin-teudent of the Texas Peuitentiary, giving information of one of the most

hasten to rectify them.The Official Messenger publishes a despatch from Komaroff stating that the Sariks are op Eised to the new frontier line proposed by ?gland, claiming it is an infringement of their rights and gives the beat land in the disputed territory to the Afghans.A Coun *cil of Ministers was held, and after thoroughly discussing the subject it was decided to support the claims of Sariks.Further pourparlers between England and Russia will now be necessary before the claims of the Sariks can be considered or before the Anglo-Russian agree ment is approved by Russia.London, May 15.\u2014The Globe states that England has demanded a definite pledge from Russia to respect the new Russo-Afghan frontier under all circumstances and to renew the assurance that Afghanistan was outside of Russian sphere.Rnssia refused to accede to this request, and retaliated by de manding farther concessions.The PaU Mall Gazette says it is untrue that Russia has accepted or rejected the English proposals.Tne Gazette declares there is no serious hitch iu the negotiations, although it is possible that a few points which remain open may postpone the acceptance of the agreement a few days.Lord Fitzmanrice announced in the House of Commons this evening that Russia had not yet sent any answer t3 the Eoglish pro posais.The Governmeut must refuse to make public the details of the

o\u2019clock.Very soon afterwards, at least one hour before the Evénement was issued, a Chronicle extra containing the full particulars, list of killed and wounded, &c., was selling in the streets.The Canadien further says that the Morning Chronicle on the following day gave no later intelligence from the front than that which was published on Wednesday night* This is true.Neither did the Canadien, and for a very good reason, the wires between Batoche and Winnipeg were down, and remained down until late on Thursday evening when they were repaired, and the despatches have since been sentabout as

GRAND TRUNK RAILWAY.The regular half-yearly meeting of the Grand Trunk Railway Company of Canada was held at London, on the 2ur soldiers, some of uur readers thought that our policy was not a good one.We insisted that the Indians who wore not against us should remain neutral.As neutrals they would assist us far more than if they donned their war paint and inveighed against the Créés.\u201d Tho Montreal Star of Thursday offers those sensible remarks on tho subject :\u2014 Canada is a civilized country, and if civilization lias not abolished war it has had some beneficial influence upon it.Tho most barbaric features of savage warfare have been exorcised from civilized warfare.There are certain well understood usages of war\u201d by which all civilized nations feel themselves bound.Were one of the great powers to indulge in the barbaric luxury ot torturing or killing prisoners, of refusing quarter to disabled combatants, or of killing women and children or unarmed men, all Christendom would make an armed protest against such atrocities.All these barbarities are characteristic of Indian warfare.Are tho Indians of the North-West to-day less barbarous than were the Indian allies of Montcalm or Sir William Johnston.who murdered white prisoners and scalped the wounded ?Canadian and American history abundantly proves that Indian allies cannot be controlled.They cannot be re strained from committing diabolical cruel ties, nor when peace is restored between the civilized nations is it easy to prevent the Indians from continuing the strife.That Indian warfare is still ^ barbarous is proved by the massacre at Frog Lake, by the burning to death of the Father^Fafard and Marchand, by the abuse cf Lhe female prisoners, and by the persistent firing at the wounded)volunteers.Thislis Indian warfare.Shall Canada sanction such warfare by using it ?Shall we set off the atrocities on the rebel side by similar atrocities on our own side ?There is a question of right and wrong as well as a question of expediency to be determined in this connection, and we contend that it is wrong as well as inexpedient to bring into operation a destructive force which we cannot con trol.The Government was sensitive about the honor of Canada in connection with the campaign, conceiving it to be humiliât ing to send tho Canadian volunteers through United States territory.It de- Voyageura.Ho says, with a few exceptions, they have been thoroughly competent boatmen, have worked exceo lingly well, have undergone the hardships of an arduous campaign without the slightest grumbling or discontent, and have on many occasions shown not only great skill, but also great courage in navigating their boats through the difficult and dangerous waters.He also adds, after thanking the officers, that certain unfounded statements having appeared in various papers, to the effect that their employment lias been attended with unsatisfactory results, that he desires to place on record not only his own opinion, but also that of every officer connected with the direction and management bf the boat column, that tho services of the Voyageurs have been of the greatest possible value, and further, that their conduct throughout has been excellent.They have earned for themselves a high reputation among the troops up the Nile.It was moreover a source of much satisfaction to the troops to find the Canadians represented on this expedition and sharing with them their privations and risks, at a time when English, Scotch and Irish soldiers are employed ; tho presence with them of Canadians shows in a marked manner the bonds which unite all parts of our great Empire.Dr.Ross, Premier of Quebec, is in the city and to-day had an interview with members of the Government with respect to the financial claims of his Government against the Dominion.trtHMAl BIAUTY of th» SKID eUalntA by V* an of_ _ ORIZ A-PERFUMERY of Purveyor to the Court of Russia \u2022

the Government to raise, as soon as posai ble, a regular force of between three and four thousand man for active and permanent service in the North-West.These soldiers would, as soon as practicable, relieve the volunteers now at the front, enabling the latter, who certainly did not enter the volunteer force with a view of embarking in a prolonged Indian war, to return to their homes and resume their IT WOULD NEVER DO.We are clad to find tho Montreal Times taking the same stand as we have ourselves taken on tho question of sotting one tribe of Canadian Indians against another tribe.To do so would be a criminal use of power on the part of our Government.We want no internal {puds engendered among our Indians.It might answer to-day to arm the Blackfeet and turn them loose on tho rebellious Créés, bnt we are looking further ahead than to-day.Peace among the tribes must be maintained at any cost, else we may have for all time to come a series of petty Indian wars all over our North West territory.General Middleton, who has had experience in the folly of array ing one tribe against another in New Zea land, is opposed to the proposition of em ploying Indians, and he is right.The Times remarks :\u2014 \u201cThe Goutte, upon the principle of tight ing the devil with fire, proposed, yoster day morning, to arm the Blackfeet to tight the rebellious Créés\u2014a policy which, it seems to us, would only add fuel to the flame that is already consuming the pros perity and destroying the future prospects of territories that have cost the country so much to acquire and develope.Tho expe riences of tho past, when the French fought the English with the aid of Indians aiffi tho English fought the French with similar assistance, ought, no matter the condition of things, to prevent such a pro posai having the slightest consideration We want no taking of scalps, no toma hawks, and as little tire and slaughter as possible, and that by no means under the old uncivilized and horrible methods.\u201d On the ninth of April last the Chro nice said on this very question :\u2014 \u201cW\u2019hen news reached us, some day ago, that the Blackfeet Indians of the North-West were eager to begin a crusade against their \u2018sworn foes,\u2019 the Créés, we expressed the hope that the Dominion au thorities would not accept the services of such allies.We must not allow our Indians to wkge war against each other.Our po licy is to make them friendly, and to keep them loyal to Canada.It would never do to inaugurate a system of little Indian wars in the North-West, or in any part of Canada, for that, matter.Our treatment of the Indiana, thus far, has been liberal and generous.If some of our agents have been cruel or have deceived and wronged tho tribes, the Government, we are sure will remedy the evil and see that justice full and ample, is done to the injured The United States Government\u2019s policy not a bad one, but designing men having eot control of afiairs, cheated and swindled and ill-treated the tribes so shockingly that in self-defence they were compelled to tight.The Indians imitate everything they see.Deceived by the whites, they in turn deceived the agents of the Govern ment, until now the condition of tilings in the United States is something quite dreadful, and tho evil continues to grow \u201cWhen we pointed out tho other day the Political.Hon.Dr.Ross and Hon.L.0.Taillon have rone to Ottawa on business connected with the NOTES AND NEWS notice to Subscribers A large number or our aeeounts for Subscription will be presented in the course of a few days, and should any be omitted, we trust that our Subscribers will not feel annoyed thereat, but call at the office.We publish this notice in the interest of our readers as much as for ourselves.The daily telegraphing expenditure (owing to wars and rumors of wars) is very large, and HONEY, CASH, is necessary to carry any newspaper lay ed In oat of them considerably, in order I successfully through a crisis such that they might go by the all Canadian Jis now presents itself, road and only sent the Major-General commanding and the recruits for the Mounted Police by the more expeditious route.The honor of Canada is far more imperilled by the prospect of the unholy alliance now proposed.\u201cAs to the expediency of \u2018fighting the devil with fire,\u201d of meeting massacre with massacre and outrage with outrage, if the loyal Blackfeet and Sioux are to light our battles wo must supply them with arms and ammunition, and^there is a possibility recognized by the experimental editorials wilh which we are dealing that the loyal Indians may become disloyal and tight against us instead of for us.Should they remain loyal to the Government, they will commence under our banners a war with the Creos, which in all likelihood will never end until one nation or the other is exterminated.Linder any circumstances the future control of the North-NVest is going to bo a difficult problem for Canada, and it will not be simplified by tho awakening of a dormant feud among tho Indians themselves.It is doubtful if we should obtain much advantage by tho employment ofjlndian warriors,and whatever temporary advantage we might get would be obtained at the sacrifice of self-respect, at the cost of serious permanent disadvantages and at the risk of shocking the civilized world by atrocities perpetrated in our.cause by savage weapons.Let us deal with our foes ourselves.\u201d G.SEIFERT\u2019S EUROPEAN BAZAAR, 34,\u2014Fabrique Street,\u201434.T Al'IES\u2019

There ia little sense in all the talk to the effect that Russia has gained everything and England has yielded everything in the arrangement now proposed.What did England really want ?Nothing but the establishment of a defined limit of Russian advances towards India.She Insisted that the northern boundary of Afghanistan should be that limit.The dispute was as to where tho lino to bo recognized as the boundary of Afghanistan should be drawn.On this point there were no early surveys to be appealed to, nothing but opinion and opposite desires to base action upon.There was a strip of country varying from fifty to one hundred miles in width between the lines which were claimed.Commissioners were to be authorized to establish a line ; England\u2019s commissioner was sent, but Russia did not send one.Meantime there was a battle and Russian soldiers advanced into the disputed territory and beyond it at one point.Now it is agreed thac representatives of the two governments meeting in London shall determine a boundary line, or lino of delimitation, which is to bo well defined by monuments.Is not this the precise thing which England desired, and which, up to this time, Russia has refused and avoided ?Whether tho line is where England claimed it should he, or where Russia claimed it ought to be, is of comparatively little importance.The essential thing was to got Russia to acknowledge a limit to her empire before it reached tho borders of British India.This done, she may not cross tho limit unprovoked without appearing to all the world to be an aggressor and to menace England\u2019s possessions.Therefore Mr.Gladstone seems to us to have won the substantial object which England has long sought, hitherto unsuccessfully.That he has done it without war, by patience, tact and skiltul diplomacy, is greatly to his credit.If he has yielded a portion of England\u2019s initial claim, that is a small matter compared with tho cost and horrors of a great war, which, after all, might not have resulted in securing all he claimed.Besides this substantial victory, he has secured the hardly less substantial incidental advantages of establishing friendly relations with the Government and people of Afghanistan, and the right to keep a resident agent at Herat, which are almost equivalent to a protectorate over that country, and has brought Russia to submit to the great principle, itself the strongest possible security of peace, of arbitration as a means for settling international differences.If Russia has secured a few miles, more or less, of territory to which her right was disputed, what is that, compared with the great advantages gaiiied by England ?If the settlement proposed is consummated, England will have no just reason to be disappointed, but rather great reason for satisfaction and congratulation that her part in this business has been managed with so much wisdom aud success, and that the prolonged period of wondering how far Russia could advance without provok war, is ended.No long time will The continued uis of Robinson's Phosphorlz ed Emulsion invariably cleanses the blood from all impurities and restores the system to a ttate of health faines*, that if manifest ad in increased constitutional vigor, mental activity, and lightness and buoyancy of spirits.Always ask for IvOBINBON\u2019s Phosphobizsd Emulsion, and be sure you get it.\td&w You need not cough all night and disturb your friends : there is no occasion for you running the risk of contracting inflammation of the lungs or consumption, while you can get Bickle\u2019t Anti-Consumptive Svrnp.This medicine cure* coughs, cold*, in fl amination of the lungs and all throat and ctest troubles.It promotes a free and easy expectoration, which immediately relieve* the throat and lungs from viscid phlegm.May 16, 1865.\tJm-dAw GOODS!
