Every member of Parliament cannot be a Minister.\u201cThey also serve, who only stand and wait,\u201d as old John Milton said in the old Puritan days.The Mail and Globe,\u2014always hunting in couples, now-a-days,\u2014are much concerned over Mr.Chapleau\u2019s position.Not content with creating him a Knight, they are demanding a better place for him in the Cabinet, than he holds at present.They would like to see him, doubtless, Minister of Railways.Mr.Chaplbau entered the Government as Secretary of State.Ho has held that comparatively unimportant office over since.If Sir John has not ad-vmced him, there must be a g»)od reason why.Mr.Chapleau will not go on strike, we may depend, on the advice of such Job\u2019s comforters, as the Globe and Mail.Our contemporaries are further concerned over the future of Mr.John Costioa.v, who, they say, must soon make way for THE MILITIA DRILL.(Toronto Mail.) Military men will certainly symjuithizo with the efforts at present l>eing made by the numerous colonels occupying seats ih Parliament to secure from tho Government a more thorough militia drill than that now given.If the militia is, in any of( its ramifications, wanting in efficiency^ \u2019the circumstance is attributable, not to lack of spirit or energy on the part of the force, but to the want of opportunity to acquire the necessary knowledge of military life.The city battalions are, for the most part> well disciplined and well prepared for service.Regarding them little or no criticism can be made.But when some of the rural battalions arc looked into evidences of weakness are at once discernible.There is nothing wanting hole, however, in the way of physique or of willingness to perform the duties undertaken.Whatever is amiss is the result of the system.The nde is that all battalions shall be drilled in camp once every two years.This regtb lation is not universally observed.It has been stated that there is a battalion which has not enjoyed camp advantages for many ycars% But the \u201cevery other year\u201d plan is not productive of good results in all cases, because it is accompanied by the three-year enlistment system.A volunteer may join in an off year.The following year he goes to camp, and in the next year he remains at home.' Thus hi* three years' experience gives him but ten days\u2019 genuine instruction.Nor is the instruction invariably calculated to make the pupil perfect.A man may leaVn to sleep in his clothes on damp ground, to cook rations, and to perform minor duties ; but his introduction to the weapon he would have to use in war is too sudden and too short to be of actual service to him.The men are allowed to fire a limited number of rounds at a target in the presence of a musketry instructor, and there their education in the use of the rifle terminates.What stands in the way of a more perfect education is the expense the enterprise would involve.Among Borne military experts the belief ia entertained that it would have paid us better to undertake this expense than to increase the batterie* and infantry companies now do»ng permanent service.The régulai' Companies certainly cost something, and it stands to reason that their drafts upon the general militia fund reduce the amount available for the instruction of the country corps.In a recent article Captain Cartwright made several suggestions with regard to militia management that seonied to Dé worthy at least of consideration.He proposes that all the officers shall be properly certifiai bed men.This change can be effected by the offering of sufficient financial inducements to the officers to attend the military schools and pass their examinations.Then the term of service for officers should be restricted, so that young men may reach, through promotion, the higher positions.He also proposes that instead of calling out for annual drill one-half of the entire force, a certain number of men from each company of every battalion, say ten, shall be brought to camp annually.Those, if men who are likely to remain in the service, will be able to turn to account all they learn from their efficient, because certificated, officers, and to cqnveya fair idea of soldiering to their comrades.But it would be well for Parliament, before adopting a new system, to examine the old one, and to discover exactly where its weaknesses are, and v/hat their causes may be.A complaint cannot be cured until it has been fully diagnosed.OPINIONS OF THIS PEOPLE.( To the Editor of the Morning Chronicle.) Dear Sir,\u2014While out on the Grande Allee Sunday afternoon for a walk, did not see a policeman» but had a treat in the shape of trotting races and urchins pelting stones, ètc., at the pretty woodpeckers.Yours truly, W.Quebec, 11th May, 1801.(Incbec Rank.* The Montreal offices of this institution have been removed from Notre Dame street to the New York Life Building on the corner of Place d\u2019Armea and St.James street, one of the most conspicuous sites in the city of Montreal.The change will no doubt prove of great benefit to the hank, the accommodation now enjoyed being more in beeping with the requirements of the institution.The interior arrangements are admirably adapted for the business- of the bank, the manner in which the offices are fitted up displaying elegance combined with solidity.The Quebeé Bank is now in the occupation of a banking house worthy of itself and the city, and we have no doubt the change will he highly appreciated by its officers as well as by the public who do business with them.\u2014 Shareholder.A .Knftonirilan Marrlazc In England.The first Mahotnedan marriage ever celebrated in England took place last Saturday at the Moslem Institute, Liverpool, where the followers of the Prophet in that city regularly assemble.The bride was Miss Charlotte Fitch, eldest daughter of Charles Fitch, J.P., of London ; and the bridegroom a Ma-hoinedan barrister practising in London, whose father is Revenue Secretary to the Nizam of Hyderabad.There was a preliminary marriage in St.Giles\u2019, Camberwell, on Saturday morning.The Vice-President of the Moslem congregation officiated, the condition of fitness for such office being a knowledge of Arabic.The Moulvie, as the official is called, was dressed in a long robe of crimson silk, beneath which was a tight fitting tunic of embroidered black velvet, the whole girdled by a broad gold belt, and wearing a turban of white silk, w ith streamers which fell over his shoulders.There were two bridesmaids.The bride\u2019s responses were in English, the bridegroom\u2019s in English and Arabic.The lady repeated after the Moulvie the words of the marriage contract : \u201cI stand here in the presence of God and all who are assembled to unite my heart to your heart, and my destiny to your destiny, and to be called by your name.Your sorrow shall be my sorrow, your happiness shall be my happiness.\u201d The bridegroom made similar promises, after which the Moulvie delivered an address to the newly-wedded pair, quoting as exemplars Adam and Eve and Mahomet and Khadija, Fatima and AH as models of conjugal fidelity.After this the bridegroom placed the ring on the bride\u2019* finger.The ceremony ended with the inscribing of the names of the contracting parties and their witnesses in the register of the Mosque, one of the witnesses being the Ottoman Consul.General in Liverpool, and another the Minister of Education for the Armenian Provinces, who hivd journeyed from Constantinople to assist in organizing the Moslem congregation in Liverpool.\u2014London Daily Meira 20th April.Fakes, Prizes, Seductive Offers,Etc We have none of the above mentioned things to offer the consumer to induce him to buy our manufacture.Our offers are an unbroken success of nearly half a century in our business.A superior article at a fair price.A reputation for honest goods, the best value in the market.Brauds of Cigars such os have been a household word with smokers for many years, and which to-day stand unequalled in quality or value, as Is attested by the millions of \u201cCable,\u201d \u201cMungo,\u201d \u201cEl Padre, \u2019 and \u201cMadré E.Hi jo\u201d Cigars that are sold annually.\u201cA word to the wise is sufficient.\u201d S.Davis A Sons, Montreal.\ttf.Sickly Infants Can use Dyer\u2019s Improved Food for Infants when every other food has hern tried unsuccessfully.It is pure, very nutritious, easily digested, and approved of by leading physicians.2ô cents.Druggists keep it.W.A.Dyer A Co., Montreal.\t4 A Capital Assortment of travelling trunks and valises at S.Carsley\u2019s, all good and cheap.Bkecham\u2019s Pills cure Bilious and Nervous ills.\td&w Ottawa, May 11\u2014In the House this afternoon, Mr.Tarte brought in his long expected resolution regarding the McGrcevy scandal.It provoked little discussion, hut pro1 mises to t>e a fruitful source at art early daté when the report of the Committee to which it w as referred is brought down.Hoh.Mr.Tapper introduced a biÜ tô amend the Act respecting certificate» to masters and mates of ships, tie said that practically ever since the Act regulating the Srantibg of certificates had l>een passed, a Ulinction had been made between lbs in land waters of the great lakes and tfiinor inland waters ; a distinction hndalso been made under A rule of tbe Department since the Act was passed, requiring certificates for fore and aft rigged vessels and for square rigged vessels, the practice in that connection had never been challenged nor hai) It been found improper, but on, a strict Feamng of the Act as it now stood\u2019, it did hot appear that the rhies and ireghlat ions were regular.The olqect of the new legislation was to make rim Yule legal.The hill was read a first time.Sir John Thompson introduced a bill to provide for the exercise of Admiralty jurisdiction within Canada, in accordance with the Colonial Courts of the Admiralty Act of 1890, and he said that by the Aut of the lin perial Parliament poshed last year.Vice Admiralty Cottrts in the various British Pos sessions were abolished and power had to be given to each of the Possessions to establish Vice Admiralty Courts of their own, and the scheme of the Act was to vest in the Exche quer Court of Canada the jurisdiction that hail been hitherto exercised by the Vice Admiralty Courts of Canada and by Maritime Courts.It also proposed investing that Court with additional jurUdictionof Admiralty character, which was not previously vested in that trihnhal, and power was also given in the Act to the, Governor in-Coubcil from time, to time to declare the existbnee of Admiralty territorial divisions.Each Province was, In the meantime, to be an Admiralty division and to have local Judges in Admiralty matters.There was to hb an appeal from him to the Exchequer Court and from the Exchequer Court to the Supreme Court of Canada.The hill was read a first time.Sir John Thompson introduced & bill respecting the Administiation of Justice.He explained that the Act had respect principally to the administration of justice principally by County Court Judges.The first section provided that County Court Judges should have jurisdiction within the territory over which they were appointed, notwithstanding any territorial enlargements or modifications which hot! been mane in the original divisions to which they had been appointed, and another provision gave the Governor-iu-Council power, on application of the Lieutenant-Governor, to direct any County Judge to exercise his jurisdiction in a County other than that to which he was appointed, and also to call on any County Judge to perform any required duties.Mr.Wallace introduced a btli to amend the Act for the preverttion ami suppression of combinations in restraint of trand.He said the bill was the samiJ as that introduced by him last ÿear, with the exception that the obnoxious words which caused so mnch opposition were eliminated, so that strictly legitimate Trade Unions under the provisions would be allowed.Mr.Tarte, on the Orders of the Day being called, rose to a question of privilege.It was a matter which, to keep silent.»botjt, would be a great failure Of duty.For obvious reasrihft, he said, he had signified to the Minister of Public Works and the member for Quebec West, his intention of bringing the matter up in the House.He was sorry his political career in the House had to lie begun with making serious accusations against old aud important members of the House.He did so only because he believed he had a great public duty to perform, and were it not for that he would not be in Parliament to-day.He had reason to believe that he could prove every charge contained in his motion.Those charges were to the effect that since 1882 or 1883, secrete of the Department of Public Works had been divulged fos money consideration, to the public contractors» by the member for Quebec West» who, acüotdihg to evidence h» had in his possession, had been paid from year to year, contract after contract, large sums of money ; that during that period of time Mr.McGrcevy had Used his influence as member of Parliament! knd as a rnemlier of the Quebec Harbor Commission, against the public interests, on numerous and important occasions.It would he remembered that at the end of last Parliament, attention was called to a statement n\u2018ad* by hliii (Mr.Tarte) in the public press.The publication of those statements had been preceded by steps which, perhaps, it was not a breach of discretion to recall.The character of the member for Quebec West and the Department of Public Works had been put into his hands without any endeavor on his part to get possession of them.He then consulted several important members of the Conservative party and showed them those papers, on their advice he decided to show those papers to the Prime Minister.By request he left some of them with Sir John ) a few days afterwards the Premier returned theih and stated, with hie UsUàI kindnësé, that lie had seen the member for Quebec West and that he had received from him assurances, positive assurances, 'that there was no tiuth whatever in the documents.He said that he had also received from the Minister of Public Works the same assurances.Before taking the risk of publication, he make up his mind that there was no other course open for him to pursue in order to stop the malversation and fraud that had been going on for a long number of years.It was admitted on all hands in Quebec that there was something rotten and wrong in Hie Public Works Department and in the Harbor Board of Quebec.For years ami years, parliament had voted large sums of money, millions of dollars, and very little useful progress had been going on.Nobody could get evidence against the suspected parties.Look at the well planned arrangement for covering the doings of this Canadian Tammany Hall.The member for Quebec West was an important member of Parliament and at the same time a member of t he Harbor Com mission, and Mr.Perley was Chief Engineer of the Public Works Department, and at the same time Engineer of the Quebec Harbor Works.Mr.McGreevy was known to lie a very close friend of the Minister of Public Works, the Assistant Engineer was a son of the Minister of Public Works, though he had never been engineering in his life.( Applause.) This was a strong combination of men with a common interest?.Members of both political parties were interested.The head of the firm of contractors was Mr.Larkin, who was a well known Liberal ; *hen there was R.H.McGreevy, who was a strong Conservative ; the other members of the firm, were three American driwms, who had had largo experience in the United States.(Laughter).Mr.Tarte said that this combination had a s'ihnidized organ, and those who dared to res! ! t and its political associates were charged with treason to the old party, the old leader and the old flag.Correspondence would sl.bw that for the last eight or ten years these men had the control, direction and organization of the Conservative party in Quebec.Was it surprising that under these circumstances the old party should have been losing ground ?In vain had the Conservatives complained, in vain had they sent importffttt representatives to Ottawa to explain matters.He had been among those charged with bringing the mutter to the attention of the Government.The combination they had to meet had been too strong for them.They did not know the real influences against them.On the present occasion he appealed to both sides of the House for assistance.His appeal would be liettcr understood by the House when the whole correspondence was before them, and then he would he able to show that the House had to deal with a very grave matter.Mr.McGreevy had stated that he had given to a responsible Conservative party the money he hau obtained from these men.As faros his (Mr.Tarte\u2019s) political friends of the Conservative party were concerned, he must state a fact which was well known among the Conservatives of Quebec.The Minister of Public Works, who was the official leader of the Conservative party of Quebec in this Parliament, had appointed, if he might be allowed to say so, had imposed upon the Conservative party Mr.McGreevy us Treasurer of tho party.In their name and as a friend for whom he (Tarte) had worked for over 20 years, ho must repudiate in the strongest possible terms, the idea that any one of them might bo held responsible for this Parliament, because they hud been sent with McGreevy by that official leader of that party in Quebec.With many others he bad been accused of having betrayed the old flag and the Conservative party Localise he had thought proper to take the course he had taken here.Hu was elected us an Indepen dent Liberal-Conservative.Mr.Laurier hail never asked him to repudiate his party ; there was not er any other agreement be- tween Mr.Laurier and himself.With the permission of tho House ho would proceed to read his morion» whitdi was as follows :\u2014 Mr.Tarte moves that Mr.Tarte, a member of this House, having declared from ids seat in this House that lie is credibly informed and that ho believes that he is able to establish by satisfactory evidence ; that in 1882 the sum of $375,000 having been voted by tho Parliament of Canada to carry out the works of the Harbour of Quebec, the Quebec Hurliour Commissioners called for tenders for dredging in connection with the said works i that Messrs.Lat'Kiii» Connolly St Co.tert-lered and were awarded the contract for the said dredging j that in ohler to secure tho influence of tho lion.Thomas McGreevy» then and now a member of the Parliament of Canada and a member of the Quebec Harlior Coinmissirtn by appointment of the Government of Canada, the firm of Larkin, Connolly and Company with the knowledge of the said Thomas McGreevy, took as a partner Robert H.MuOreevy, his brother, giving him an interest of .\u201810 per cent in the firm ; that the said Thomas McGreevy consented to his brother becoming a member of the firm and stated he had first consulted the Honorable Minister of Public Works, Sir Hector L.Langcvin, and secured his consent t that Ihe said contract, signed on the '2ôth of September, 1882, stipulated that the works thereunder were to be finished by the first of November, 1884, but that the said Larkin, Connolly St Go.continued to perforin the work of dredging under the scale of prices therein mentioned up to the close of the season of 18S8 ;

that homns McGrcevy, acting in concert with Larkin, Connolly ACo., did, at their request, corruptly endeavor to procure the dismissal from office of certain publie officers éniployéd in connection with the works of the Graving Dock at KsquiinalL, in order to have them replaced by others who would suit Larkin, Connolly k Co., the former having for a lime incurred the ill-wili of Larkin, Connolly k Co.because they then compelled them to carry out the works in conformity with the specifications and contract, ami prepared their estimates according to the terms of the said contract; that during the winter ofl88G 87 the said Thomas McGreevy proposed to and made with the firm of Larkin, Connolly A Co., through certain members of the said firm, an arrangement whereby the said firm undertook to pay to him the sum of twenty-five thousand dollars, on condition that he wouldobtain for thefirm the sum of ftSctx.per cubic yard for tho dredging of 800,000 cubic yards in the area of Hie wet basin In the bar nor of Quebec ;

Parie.) election of 1887, in the hands of one of the members of the firm who, finding that sum insufficient, had to add thereto the sum of |2,000 ; that on the 23rd May, 1887, in fulfilment of the arrangement above mentioned and through the effort, the infiuence and the intervention of the aaid Thomas McGreevy and without any public lender haviug been called for, a contract was made between the Quebec Harbor Commissioners and Larkin, Connolly A Co.for all the necessary dredging ami removal of material in the wet basin of the Snebec Harbor Works j that in the execu-on of the works of this contract, extensive frauds were perpetrated to the detriment of the public treasury and sums of money were paid corruptly to officials under the control and direction of Hy.F.Perley and appointed by the Quebec Harbor Commission.That by an Order in-Conncil dated 10th May, 1888, the Government of Canaria decided to pay a sum of twelve thousand five hundred «lollars yearly, during five years, to Mr.Julien Chabot, on the condition of his causing the steamer \u201c Admiral \u201d to ply between Dalhousie and Gaspe, forming a connection with the Intercolonial Railway ; that the said sum of twelve thousand five hundred dollars ($12,500) has since l>een paid in the manner prescribed in the Order-in-Council, and that the contract madejthc said Julien Chabot was merely a screen for the benefit of the said Thomas McGreevy, who then was and continued to lie for a long time thereafter the proprictcr of the \u201cAdmiral\u201d in whole or at least in great part ; that previous to the 10th of May, 1888, to wit since 1883 or 1884, the same subsidy of $12, 500 was paid for the said steamer \u201cAdmiral,\u201d then also owned by men representing the said Thomas McGreevy; that the said Thomas McGreevy received in that connection a sum of about one hundred and twenty thousand dollars, while being a member of the Parliament of Canada ; that in 1886, ten ders were asked for by the Quebec Harbor Commissioners for the construction of a work called the \u201csouth wall\u201d or retaining wall that Mr.Thomas McGreevy procured from public officials the tenders received, and showed them to Messrs.O.E.Murphy, Connolly and R.H.McGreevy, for whom he w*s acting, in order to give them an undue advantage over their competitors ; that they had' the said tenders in their possession daring several hours, after which they were returned to Henty F.Perley, then in Quebec, by the said Thomas McGreevy ; that the contract was awarded to one John Gallagher, mere figurehead for the said Murphy, Connolly and R.H.McGreevy, who diu the work for their own profit and advantage that changes detrimental to the public interest but of a nature to secure great profits to the contractors, were made in the plans and the carrying out of the works and in the conditions and securities set ont in the con tract, through the influence of and intervention of the said Thomas McGreevy ; that from the year 1883 to 1890, both inclusive, the said Thomas McGreevy received from Larkin, Connolly A Co.and from his brother, R.H.McGreevy, from the considerations above indicated, a sum of about $200,000 ; that during the period aforesaid he was the agent and paid representative of Larkin, Connolly A Co., on the Quebec Harbor Board of Commissioners, in Parliament, and in con nection with the Department of Publié Works ; that the said Thomas McGreevy exacted and received out of the subsidies voted by Parliament for the construction of the Baie des Chaleurs Railway, a sum over forty thousand dollars ; that the moneys expended in connection with the works men tioned in the present motion are moneys voted by the Parliament of Canada and amount to about five million dollars ; that the said Thomas McGreevy on several oc casions demanded in the name of the Hon.Minister of Public Works, and received from Larkin, Connolly A Co., sums of money ; that certain members of the firm of Larkin, Connolly A Co., paid and caused to l>e paid large sums of money to the Hon.Minister of Public Works ont of the proceeds of the said contracts, and that entries of the said sums were made in the books of that firm ; that from 1882 to the present session the said Thomas McGreevy bos always lived in Ottawa in the g] statement had been made on the iloor of Parliament and he hoped a speedy investigation would take place.He w as prepared to defend himself ami would promise the House that the result of the investigation would l>e lus compte tcvindication.The member for Montinorenci (Tarte) bad placed himself in a position from which he would have difficulty in extricating himself.Mr.Tarte denied that ho had 1>cen asso ciuted with the men named in the correspondence.Mr.McGreevy\u2014We will have more of that bye and bye.Mr.Tarte\u2014My sincere wish is that the words used by my Hon.friend may prove true.He talks of forgery.Mr.Speaker, if the letters I have referred to as signed by him are forgeries, I w ill not only apologize to this House, but I will have no other expectation than to go from this House and to do it very quick.(Applause.) On the suggestion of Mr.Edgar, the motion was amended so as to refer the charges to the Committee on Privileges and Elections as proposed by Sir Hector Luugevin, and in that shape it was adopted by the House.The House adjourned at 6 p.m.Literary Notices.FUR SALE OR TO LET- AUCTION SALES.To Let, May 11, 1891.ONE OF OUR CONQUERORS.Mr.George Meredith\u2019s new novel, \u201cOne of Our Conquerors,\u201d published by Messrs.Roberts Bros., Boston, is a most striking and beautiful story, illustrative of modern English life, character ami movement.There are many who believe that George Meredith is England\u2019s greatest living novelist.His writings stand out above those of his contemporaries, and though fault sometimes, may be found with his style, everyone must admit the fascination of his character-drawing, and the death of his genius ns a romancer.In \u201cOne of Our Conquerors,\u201d we have the great author at his best, some of his chapters equalling those in \u201cDiana of the Crossw'ays,\u201d and all of them being rich in force, power and humor.The story is a genuine creation, a literary event of rare importance, and the reader will find, from cover to cover, a wealth of description, a subtlety of reasoning, and a delicious fancy that positively instruct, while they delight.The story is full of brilliant bits, and few readers will be content with one perusal of it.To our mind, it will hold no second place in the author's collecf'oa of strong and thoughtful books.Dawson's.CONSTITUTIONAL GOVERNMENT IN CANADA.In Dix ans an Canada, do 1840 à 1850, by the late A.Gérin Lajoie, just published handsome style by Messrs.L.J.Demers Brother, we have a notable contribution to the history of [responsible government Canada.Those who have read the large and important work on the same subject, by the late John Charles Dent, F.R.S.C., of To ronto, should not neglect to read Mr.Lajoie volume, which takes the French side of the question.This is not an answer to Mr Dent, properly speaking, hut it presents some side-lights of French Canadian character which differ most materially from those held by Dent in his \u201cLast Forty Years, or Canada Since the Union.\u201d Mr.Lajoie has written his book with care and judgment, and he has made excellent use of the writings of snch authorities as Lords Grey Metcalfe and Sydenham, Erskine May Roebuck, the contemporary press, French and English, the correspondence of Caron Baldwin, Lafontaine, viger, Morin, and others.His style is easy and flowing and his criticisms, often sharp, give life and vigor to a work which will long remain the chief exposition of the battle of reform, ii Canada, daring her crucial period,\u2014of course from the severely French point of view.The reader will enjoy reading the volume, even if he cannot always accept Mr.Lajoie's conclu sions.The facts appear to us to be indisputable.The work has the advantage of short but scholarly preface by the Rev.Abbé C&sgrain, F.R.S.C.The work, we presume, may lie hail at the book stores.UNTIL MAY 1st, 1892, THE Store lately occupied by F.X.Letourneau éc Co., St.Paul Street.Rato reduced.Immediate posses- Apply to D.AROAND,

order to put in the mind of Larkin, Connolly A Co., that he had the Minister under control and he was acting as his representative in corrupt practices ; that the fact that on many occasions he used the name of the Minister of Public Works in his dealings with them, undertaking to obtain his co-operation or declaring that he had secured it ; that before the Board of Quebec Harbor Commissioners be often also used the name of the said Minister ; a Committee be appointed to enquire fully into the aaid allegations and specially, but without limiting the scope of such enquiry, to investigate all circumstances connected with the several tenders, contracts and changes therein ahd the payments and other matters mentioned in the statement hereinbefore made, with power to send for persons, papers and records, and to examine itnesses upon oath or affirmation, and that the Committee do report in full the evidence taken before them and all their proceedings on the reference and the result of their enquiries, and that rule 78 of this House, as to the selection of the Committee be suspended and that the said Committee be composed of Messrs.Davies, Edgar, Kirkpatriclc, Mills (Bothwell), Ouimet, Prior, Tarte, Weldon and Wood (Brockville).Resuming, Mr.Tarte said that the matter was now entirely in the hands of the House.He had heard with great pleasure, and the House would, no doubt, hear with great pleasure, an important statement made in Halifax by the Minister of Justice, who said that when Parliament should meet an investigation would take place and it would take pl$ce on the motion of a member of tho Government.Continuing, Mr.Tarte said that be hod been elected to put the motion be had just moved before the Honse, he verily believed that unless he was face to face with a long succession of forgeries, which to his mind was not possible, they would have the painful duty of proving every statement that ho béd just put before the House.(Applause).Sir Hector Langevin said that this matter being a matter of privilege and there being a Committee appointed by the House, which was a Committee of Privileges and Elections, this matter should be sent to that Commit lee.His intention had lieen from the beginning to make the motion himself, but he understood Mr.Tarte hail other matters to bring before the House than those published in the press ; under these circumstances he thought it was not fair that he should move a reference of only that, portion of the statement that had been published in the papers, but he should leave Mr.Tarte to take his own course and bring the documents as fully as he should think proper before the House.His name was connected with this matter of privilege by Mr.Tarte, and under these circumstances he thought he should make a statement to the House which he would do as follows:\u2014I never communicated in any way to any one, the tenders or prices of the tenders or the relative positions of the tenders or the names of the tenderers, at any time before the contract was alloted and signed, and the work in progress, the only persons having the same information being the members of ths Privy Council and such of the officers of my department as were entrusted with the opening of the tenders after the period fixed for their reception.I nevec, found out or knew any such or other officers of my department to be guilty of any indiscretion or breach of trust in connection with any tender or contract, the tenders accepted have been and are so accepted strictly according to law.If the parties named in the motion os having contributed to a testimonial presented to mo some eight or ten years ago, have so contributed to it, I never asked them to do so, and I reply this moment that I never knew them to have done so, directly or indirectly.I never asked the contractors named in the motion for money, cheques or notes, nor did I receive any such money, cheques or notes from them for my use, profit or

about to be closed has brought us many intelligent and welcome visitors whose presence at this time among us will long be remembered.But perhaps no one leaves us now who has made so many personal friends or who is held in so mnch regard as the Hon.Adam Brown, the Canadian Commissioner.Many have felt when they first met him, that they had met man and a friend.The quick penetrating look through the abounding sunshine of his face, his bright, prompt, and vigorous utter ance, and the unhesitating, earnest grip his hand make an impression at once, man of mature years, he brims over with natural, never-failing boyish enthusiasm that captivates all observers, and his \u201cprompt eloquence,\u201d to use Milton\u2019s word applied to the \u201cfirst pair,\u201d makes him a trusty and telling co-worker wherever he goes.He is true \u201cson of the North\u201d in physique and mind.Some fifteen centuries ago his ancestors must have been living among the Tuestonic tribes of the North West Europe.How it comes no one can tell, but it was only there that men of his complexion form and other physical characteristic were Îprown.His voice rings with their liberty-oving and aggressive spirit.His healthy Test ofa Sew Knew Ploaxta A new snow plough of novel design was tested yesterday on the line of the Lake St-Jobn Railway, near Lorette.A special en line and cat left the Palais

several members of the press, etc.The test was made at Lorette, where snow hod been piled on the track to tho height of 5 to ed Lo 7 feet.The engine, with plough attach-, went through it at a speed of 25 to 30 miles an hour, and the test was pronounced a success by all present.The gentlemen in charge of the new plough are Dr.Cameron, of Montreal, and Mr.Eaton, of Boston.The late date of the reason at tfhich the experiment took place is due to delay in the construction of the plough, which is 42 feet long, 12 feet high, and weighs 20 tons\u2014in steel.the Irishmen of Quebec to redeem the pledge.(Loud applause.) Mr.Redmond, M.l\\, addressed the meeting in one of the most eh queut speeches ever heard in this hall He referred to the opinion expressed in some quarters in America that the tight should be settled at home, but 1 ould not believe that Americans and Canadians would refuse to aid the Irish party until there was perfect union in its ranks.There had lieen a division eleven years ago.He was far from disparaging any whose views were not those held by him, hut the exceptions would generally, 1 c helievul, be those who hail only showed anxiety for Ire land's cause when it became fashionable to do so, and when it was supported hy William Ewart (Hailstone.Referring lo those who said Mr.Parnell should retire from public life because of certain proceedings in an F.ng-lish divorce court, he said that if the private character of public men were enquired into, Charles Stewart I'uruall would not be by any means the only man who would have to retire from public life, either fu England or America.He referred to the numerous crimes alleged, not only against members of the Imperial Commons, but even against peers of the realm who sat in the gilded Ilouse of Lords in their scarlet robes.At the time those divorce proceedings were hail, not a single individual pretended to say that they disqualified Parnell.The clergy did not, though a pronouncement was naturally looked for from them, and it was only justice to themselves that he and his colleague should specially refer to this since they had been accused in this very Province of identifying themselves with a cause that was against religion and morality.On every hand was heard declarations that it was the bounden duty of the Parliamentary party to re-elect Mr.Parnell, who, it must be remembered, was their political and not their religious or moral guide.He himself might not be on this side of the Atlantic now and wcmld certainly not be so enthusiastic in this cause, were it not that he had been fired in it by the zeal displayed in Mr, Parnell\u2019s behalf days after the divorce proceedings were published to the world, by some of the McC&r thyites.likeT.M.Healey and Justiu McCarthy himself to whom he went for advice, and whose burning speeches at the Leinster Hall meetiug in Dublin on the 20th November in Mr.Parnell\u2019s favor, he read, amid loud laughter, to the audience.He condemned the shameful, contemptible fickleness of these men, who after these speeches, after being a few days later parties to Mr.ParneU\u2019s unanimous re-election as leader, were imine diately afterwards engaged in hunting him, the greatest of Irish patriots, as though he was an Irish informer.Ho showed that amongst the seceders, Healey was the real leader, McCarthy but the figurehead, though the resolution pledging support of Parnell at the Leinster Hall meetiug was in Healey\u2019s own handwriting.He was present himself with Parnell during the Kilkenny election and Touched for tho manner in which his foes attempted to deprive him of eyesight.The Independent Irish party would continue to stand by him so long as he continued true and faithful lo the cause of Ireland.(Loud applause.) A resolution pledging support to Parnell, on the part of the Irish Land League of Quebec was moved by Mr, J.Gallagher and seconded by Dr.Howe in lengthy speeches and unanimously adopted.We should mention that a portrait of Parnell hung over the stage, and that above it was the inscription \u201cThe old flag, the old cause, the old leader,\u201d and that a largo subscription was taken up before the meeting terminated.ROYAL IMRAME COMPANY.FIRE AND LIFE.Why doubt upon opinions are CAPITAL, ^2,000,000 Stg.And Immense Reserve Funds.Absolute Security to Assured.^ Largest Net Surplus of any Fire Ins.Co.in the world, \u201cLitt'e Giant\u201d Sulky Plow, Steel Plows adapted to all foils, Spring Tooth Harrows, Rotary Harrows, Seed Drills for field or garden, Rollers, Cultivators, Wheel Barrows, Lawn Mowers,\t_ ChuriiH and Agricultural Implements of all kinds.Engines, Boilers, Saw Mills and \\\\ ood Work-| And Largest Business in Canada, ing Machinery.Also,\u2014Bicycles of Different Styles, at Low Prices for Best Quality Machines.Ear Call and see our stock at 30 ST.PAUL STREET, City.WM.A.ROSS.P.S.\u2014Catalogues in English and French mailed on application.April 25, 1891.\tmcb9-Lm Insurance» taken at current rate».Policies issued here.Lottes promptly paid lip the Coverament Was I'arepresentcd at the Irish Meeting Last Night.The following letter explains itself :\u2014 - Department of Public Works Quebec, 5th May, 1891.Messrs.J.Gallagher, W.Walsh and J.O\u2019Flaherty, Quebec.1 Gentlemen,\u2014 My colleagues and myself have conferred together upon the advisability of bring present at the meeting which is to be held for the political delegates of which you havu spoken to me.As I have already had the pleasure of telling you, it is theOoveuiuiept\u2019E earnest wish to express on all occasions their sympathy for the Irish peopla, and the resolution passed unanimously by the Legislative Assembly of Quebec, on recent occasion, leaves no that point.Unfortunately, divided ns to the best means of sccunn the welfare of Ireland ;

but there is no reason why a good young mau sho&ld wear a long, sour-looking fact, and a sinful one be gayfy attractive.If any one in the world ought to be cheerful it is the person who is a Christian.Virtue has a better time than siu can ever have.Ihe pleasures of sin are enjoyable for the moment, but after that, conscience stings, a sense of shame degrades, and often the fear of discovery adds its misery to.the Hat, This pleasures which a Christian may enjoydiave no such bitterness, but are pleasant to look back upon.Christian boys and girls, remember it is Christlike to make those around you happy, and one of the best ways to do this is to cultivate a merry heart and a cheerful countenance.\u201cVirtue itself offends when coupled with forbidding manners.\u201d The beet sort of virtue is that which h coupled with attractive manners and pleasant words.\u2014 Watchman.The Queen\u2019s Hotel, \u2022 Toronto, Canada.McGrAW & WINNETT, Proprietors.tar Patronized by Royalty and tho best families.Prices graduated according to rooms.The Queen\u2019s Royal, - Niagara, Canada.McGAW & WINNETT, Proprietors.Tccumseh House, - - London, Canada.McGAW & WINNETT, Proprietors.April 1, 1«91.\tF»» C.P.Champion, Agent.No.66, St.Peter Street, Quebec.T TKLErHOIB I*.7t.VERY URGENT !

Their anxiety for the cause of Ireland began when they ceased to have the power of governing the Empire.The Conservatives had been similarly converted.It was not safe for the Irish to depend upon either party.'Their best dependence was \u2022upon themselves.The time must come, in the history of every Parliament, if they kept .together, that their 80 votes would enable them to make and .unmake Governments.It had been asked why Parnell did not withdraw for the sake of peace.In the first place he would not be permitted to withdraw, and in the second, it wouhl not make peace even if he did so.If Parnell was to »lie to-night Ibis fight would still go on.For the Irish independent Parliamentary party would not consent to be the tail cud of any English political party.He gave an interesting sketch of Parliamentary history affecting Irelaml for some few years past, and in speaking of the land purchase bill of the present Government said it was the most importent measure ever passed in the iuterest of Irelaml, providing as it did for the loan of $160,000,000 at 3 per cent to Irish formers.Yet at English Liberal dictation, several of the Irish seceders voted against it, and others, like Sexton aud Healy, who had not the courage of their convictions, walked out of the House.The present was not a faction fight, for the se-ceders were no longer an Irish party but a branch of an English one.America and Canada had pledged their moral support to the independent Irish party and be now asked THE FIRE COMMITTEE, SHALL RE-ceive tenders until MONDAY, the 18th May instant, for the making of 48 complete uniforms in blue flannel, for the firemen.Description of uniform : Lined Sacque Coats, Vests and Pants.The furniture for such uniforms shall be appropriate to the serge.Each tenderer shall accompany his tender with sample of the stuff and lining intended for such uniforms.As a guarantee of good faith on the part of the tenderers, such tenderers shall deposit with the City Treasurer the sum of $25.Each tender shall be addressed \u201cTender for Unifonns for Firemen.\u201d The Committee does not bind itself to accept the lowest or any of the tenders.For more information, tenderers shall ml dress to Councillor Gagnon, Chairman of the Committee.II.J.J.B.CHOUINARD, City Clerk.May 7, 1891.CITY OF QTJEIBICC.CITY HALL, Quebec, 5th May, 1891.SEALED TENDERS WILL BE RECEIV-ed from this day till WEDNESDAY, at noon,the 20th day of May instant,for the Printing that may lie required by the CorjKiration for one year, specifying the prices for one year, from the first June next to the 1st June, 1892, according to the specifications to be seen at the office of tile undersigned.The Tenders to bo endorsed \u201cTenders for Printing,\u201d addresswl to, and deposited in the office of the City Clerk, from whom any further information may be obtained, and see the specification of all the work needed,from 10 A.M.to 4 P.M.daily.The fees for the drawing up of the contract, and two copies for tho Corporation to be paid by the contractors.The Corporation shall not be obliged to accept the lowest or any of the tenders.By order, H.J.J.B.CHOUINARD, City Clerk.May 5, 1891.___________________td CITY OF QUEBEC.But with the Dark Gold Capsule, Every one being Stamped, CORBY\u2019S I.X.L.Lawrence A, Wilson & Co, Sole Agents.MONTREAL.3ST o -A- HL.XT im: ALL INGREDIENTS PURE AND FECTLY HEALTHFUL.PER- March 28, 1891.toM&rat-J ¦Srishorn's SELF-ACTING SHADE ROLLERS 2^ Beware of Imitations.JJ _ NOTICE , -\tm AUTOGRAPH //i^YABEL /?GE N Ul N E TRADE MARK.On Every Package, no Other i Genuine.ASK FOR- M\u2019LAREN\u2019S March 24, 1891 tu.th&sat-Lm CITY HALL, Quebec, 5th May WILL 91.SEALED TENDERS WILL BE RE-ceived from this date until WEDNESDAY, the TWENTIETH day of May instant, SPRIM NOVELTIES AND TAKE January 17, 1891 NO OTHER.feb!7 FASHIONABLE TWEED SUITIN&S Irish Serges, Cheviots, Black Worsted and Corkscrew Serges.I tSOXT\u2019s DIAMOND SPRING TROWSERING FOR FARES, Time Tables, Tiekets aud Îeneral information apply at the Union Depot, Üty Ticket Office, corner King and Yonge, and at York Street, Toronto, or to any of the Company\u2019s Agents.L.J, SEARGEANT, Genor Managtr.Royal Military College OF CANADA Kingston, Ontario.The royal military college is established for the purpose of imparting A complete education in all branches of military tactics, fortification, engineering, and general identifie knowledge iiveubjects connected with, and necessaiy to a thorough knowledge of tho military profession, and for qualifying officer for command and for Staff appointments.'a) In addition the course of instruction uch as to afford a thorough practical scientifi.and sound training in all departments which are essential to a high and general modern education.(b) The Civil Engineering Course is complet and thorough in all branches.(c) The obligatory course of surveying is suob as is required for tn.profession of Dominion Land Surveyors ;
