Hon.Mr.Bo well, to do him justice, deals with Mr.U)kt-rt a» if he at all events did not fear Mr.Kykcrts covert threats.Sir Kicbaal t'artwright oould not do otherwise iu arraigning Mr.itykert on such charges than refer to tin carnival ol corruption which has reigned at Ottawa during the laat two paiTiamtutg, of which Mr.Itykert s doings are only an incident.A Fisk Piece ok Sarcasm was practised on the wuilutu and publie spirit of the Police Committee I y the Chief uf Police mid by the Reooiiter, both of whom positively n-fusod to nominate persons for ollice tinder them, leaving these appointment* to the judgment of a committee which has treated past nominations made by responsible authorities with contempt.Whatever the shortcomings of Mr.Hughes may be, it is impossible to hold a chief of police fully responsible for the pro per control of the service while lie is denied almost any influence over the appointments to that service ?T he Projectors of the Mounts in elevator claimed that it would be of great service to the public.This it has doubtless been.It would, however, have proved equally serviceable if, ts w as understood at the time, the track had bren carried up some cleft in the hill where it would have been unseen, instead of being, like a scar across a man\u2019s forehead, the most obtrusive feature of the park.It was promised also that the people's path to the top of the mountain would not be inter> fered with, but this has been destroyed.Hut who cares for tho people, especially such of them as cannot pay five cents a head for their families ?Corporations never consider the public for a moment.Their plan is to make it all right with otlicials who have the public's rights iu their care: then the public is voiceless.For the Mayor and aldermen to hand over the people's playground to this corporation would not only be complicity iu a raid upon the people's rights, but would be condoning the liberty already taken.In other words, it would be an advertisement to all to assume what rights they choose over the public domain.Mi\u2019Ri'KR an» Sricit'K seem to be on the increase in Canada.It is not safe to use any stronger word than \" seem,\u2019' as the facilities for learning the details of all such crimes in-crease continually and the taste for that class of reading causes it to be sought after and dwelt upon.There seems, however, always to be a decrease in respect for human life coincident with a decadence of religious belief and especially with the decay of belief in the doctrine of retribution after death, which is an essential clement of all religion.It used to be said that the Germans, among whom something akin to atheism had become general, were very much more given to suicide tnan the Anglo Saxon, who still stood in terror with Hamlet of the dreams that might come in the sleep of death.Is it because men are ceasing to peer into the mysteries of what is beyond that we so frequently hear of men casting themselves un \u2022 c alled intothe dread eternity ?There may be in the sensuous and material uotions which have prevailed in the past with regard to the punishment of the wicked some cause for the decadence of that belief ; but whatever is true will assert itself and will force itself upon mankind by a dread logic which they cannot gainsay.THE GOVERNMENT AND MR.RYKERT Ihe Government is not for some reason ready to deal with Mr.Kykert\u2019s Case.Although he has either slandered some of the highest memhsrrs of the Government, Sir John Macdonald and Mr.Bowell and a recent member of the Government, Sir Charles Tapper, or has declared justly that he procured their corruption, for there is no other possible inference from his letters, which, on the face of them, are those of a corrupt member of Parliament, the Government is not prepared even to censure Mr.Kykert.Sir John Thompson, who is for some reason always put up to intervene in iasoci dangerous to the Government, was in this cate also employed to bnrke the question for the time.He moved the adjournment of the debate, which will not be resumed until next Monday.In the meantime Sir John Macdonald will lie able, if so disposed, to come to an understanding with Mr.Rykert.He will, of course, only do this if he is in any way within the power of the member for Lincoln.Mr.Rykert is notable for the keep ing of a rap books which are filled with matter, mostly personal, which he uses with some effect against bis enemies.These have hitherto been the enemies of the Government.Is Sir John Macdonald afraid of what the scrap iiooks may contain against former friends of Mr.Rykert Î After the manner of cornered rata, he has turned upon Sir Richard Cartwright, who, by the way, is GOD'S ACRE.A mors despicable proposition has hardly come before a iminii-ipsl council in tills an-llghteued nineteenth century than the proposal of our Police Committee to take ground from DutVerin Square for a police station.Can the city allord no other earth on which to rear a cage for criminals than the dint of tho Protes tant forefathers of Montreal Î When it was sought to sell the remains of ancestral generations iu what is now Dominion Squaro in building lots there was a great outcry.Those who could claim no direct interest in the human dust of w hich that spot is largely made objected on sanitary grounds to its being secularised by the cupidity of its owners, and the Protestant end of Montreal taxed itself to show respect to the resting place of those of other kindred.When it was determined to remove the deal from the old Protestant burial ground the strongest and most bitter feelings were roused in tho hearts of many whose holiest seusiliilitiei were lacerated by the desecration of graves that were dear to them.True, an effort was made to carry all that could lie carried to uew ground, but bones and broken tombstones bearing the names of illustrious citizens long testified to the futility of the effort.Nome removed their dead to places far from Montreal, where they hoped that in harmony with the services that had been safd over them they might rest in their graves till tho resurrection.Science, doubtless, shows us that our decomposed bodies are nothiug more than such stufT as the richest soil is made of, but science can never destroy the sentiment which finds fault with a man for \u201c hotanD.ing on ids mother's grave.\u201d Instead of diminishing as science increases, sentiment grows more and more tender.The Englishman of to day does not, as seems to have been done in the days of Shakespeare.shovel out the bones of Yorick to find room for the beauteous corpse of Ophelia, Every effort to make a highway through Trinity churchyard in New York, the verymost valuable property on this continent, has been met with such an outcry of indignation on the part of the whole city that that space has been kept not only intact, but protected by bars from trespassing feet.It is not, therefore, a mark of advanced civilization to be indifferent to the memorials of the dead.Let knonled?* grow from more to more, But more of reverence lo u* dwell.If another reason were needed for forbidding the city to take possession of any part of the old burial ground, it is to be found in the fact that the spot is the only space in a long distance of very thick population where the people can find greenness, fresh air and rest.It should, therefore, be beautified and kept for their use.No meaner thing can be done by our city authorities than to rob the people of the few open places left to tiiem.We consider this proposal to build criminal cells upon this Catnpo Santo an insult to those men whose stout hearts and long heads and enterprise made Montreal what it is, and to those women whose kindness and grace was once the light of its homes.It is an insult which, however unintended, their successors should resent with such force as to make the repetition of such a proposal impossible.SPORTS AND GAMES.ccaLisn.The Quebec men who played for the dl»trM medal reaUrday with the Caledoniac* sot pretty badly beaten.Toe Ice was very poor, and at the end cf two hours and

Aeat-mbly this Afternoon.The Ministerial!*ti tf both Rousts attended, aud it is supposed that the «met conclave was for the purpose of endeavoring to reconcile the differences in the party on the subject.It was followed by a private gathering of the uumibera of the National Conii-rvative win;, at which both the National Conservative loader and the Crown Lunds Commissioner were present, aud it

qround that his friends had a go jd many things to enquire into yet before the Publie Accounts Committee and if the House sat thrice daily, they would have no opportunity of doing to.The Premier proteited against membsn being kept much longer in Quebec in atteud-ance upon the session, while the Opposition were fishing for evidence before the Public Accounts Committee, lie offered to place everything in the departments at their disposal to find out what they wanted, but something should bs done to pro vent the session from beiog prolonged indefinitely.lie also offered to poitpone for some days bis motion for the thien sittings in order to give every latitude to the Opposition, but it was Decenary to fix » term some way so that the end of the session might be foreseen.Fically, after a long wrangle, Mr.Taillon said he thought he would be able t morrow to state when the Op|>osition would be ready to mee: the Government's proposal, and the subject then dropped, the Premier's motion being held over until to-morrow.FISHING BIGHTS.Mr.Mercier then asked for concurrence in bis resolutions on tithing rights.In reply to the Hon.Mr.Flynn he explained tnat the resolution had been rendered nrcesaary by the ex traoidinary action of the Federal Government, whtch on the 2*ith of Deoumber last had suddenly paised au Order in-Council, calling upon the Quebec Government to postpone indetiniuly its advertised and then sbcrtly forthcoming -ale of the salmon rivers and trout lakee and denying the right claimed so long conceded to the Province in re gaid to the ownership of the same.Strange to say, the communication, enclosing this order-in-Council, did not reach the Lieutenant-Governor before the 7th of January on the very eve of the sale, when the Quebec Government declined to poetpene the sale.Thereupon, and even before the Quebec Government's reply could reach Ottawa, the Federal Government caused a proleat to be served upon it, as well ae other protests upon the pnrehaserr, notifying them not to pay, but, on the asinrance of the Qm-'boo Government that they would be protected in their rights, they disregarded the action of the Federal Government and bad (laid.This action of Ottawa not only constituted a new and serious troubling of the Province as a province in its acknowledged rights, but a disturbance of private rights, a complete reversal of the doctrine which had hitherto obtained in tho matter, inasmuch as the Order-in Council also denied the rights of private riparian owners to fish in the lakes and streams on their properties, and, under tbe circumstances, the Government thought it its duty to ask the Dome lo take n firm and vigorous stand on tbe subject, without, however, being insulting to the Federal autbentiee.The Premier then went on to comment on the strangenese of tho Uttawa Government\u2019s attitude in the matter, in view of the fact that the Supreme Court, in the cate of Robertson vs.the Queen, had already settled the question in favor of tbe provinces, that the Qnebec Legislature had, without disavowal by Ottawa,repeatedly legialated on tbe subject since 1882, and that two sales of f.ihery rights before the laet one bad been permitted in 1885 and 1888 without a word of protest ftm the Federal Government.He also mentioned that the latter bad also directly acknowledged the Provincial right by applying to the Quebec Government to lease to the Governort-General, Lords Lana downe and Stanley, the Cascapedia River for salmon fishing, and concluded by asking tbe H\u2019-use to firmly resist tbia latest and moat inexplicable of Federal encroachment).The Hon.Mr.Flyun said he had only been in doubt regarding tho exact nature of tho Federal Government's pretensions, which he had supposed on first hearing of it only referred to navigable streamr, but under tbe circumstances, and as the Crown Lands Commissioner who hod first put the Provincial legialation on the subject into force in 1883, he fully concurred in tbe I Government's resolutions, which were then un-: animonsly concurred in, and copies of them ordered to be forwarded in tho usual way to the Governor General and the Lieutenant Governors of the different provinces.THE DUTY ON TRADE HALM.On the second reading of the Bill to amend tbe Quebec License Law respecting the duty on anctu n sales, Treasurer Sbehyn again explained that the measure merely abolished the duty on trade sales, advantage being also taken of the occasion to make the exemntions clearer.Mr.McShane warmly congratulated the Govern ment on having faithfully carried out the promise they had given to an important deputation on the subject from Montreal, which had more particularly suffered from this duty on trade sale*.He trusted they would see thmr way soon to ab>liih another unpopular tax, that on commercial corporations.Mr.Hall characterized tbe bill as a move m the right direction and said he only regretted that it did not go further and remove the dntiea on all auction aalea, as he be lieved this waa the only province in which they were maintained.The bill waa then pul through its remaining stages and passed.WHOLESALE LIUCOK LICENSER.While on the subject of the License Law, Mr.Flynn enquired if it was intended to do any thing in regard to meeting tbe well founded ob-jeettons to tbe granting -f wholesale liquor licenses in municipalities, especially in the rural district*, which had adopted prohibitory by-laws.Treasurer Hbehyn said ha was anxious to meet the views of all the rr«i>ectable elements of the community in rrgard to tbit and other important jiointa affecting tbe sobriety of the population, but there waa a constitutional ditHculty in the way, to which coorideration waa being given.He allndfd to the control of trade being vested in the Federal Government and the doubt whether the Province had a right to interfere.Mr.UrbeiHon said there could be no queetion that these wholesale license* did a great deal of damage in tbe country part*, and aomething should be done to try to get over the dithoulty.Wholesale licenses should at least be oontioei to the cities and town*.Mr.Flynn referred to the advisability cf not issuing tuch lioeiDci in the rural diatiiols, but Mr.Kbehyn argued that (he Governin»nt had uo choice but to obry t i-i law Mr.Robertson thought the ditiiculty uug.H Le got over by putting on a tremec l msly high licenie, *»y two hundred dollars.Mr.Baldwin said he had been b ira and liai always lived in the township of Barford, and wi iild say they never hail liquor aold iu their village or township until the last two years.They had had for years a prohibitory by law and to day they had two wholesale licmsed deg's nrstr.not in the village, but in a back place wbrro liquor was «old right and left.They would sell ouo dozen bottle*, deliver one, and lake pay for one, aud he hoped something would be done to atop this kind of work.If we wire to have license he thought to make it tHi gallons instead of two would be better than it now stood.Tho Hon.Mr.ttnehyn said the municipalities aboul] not always look t > tbe Government to proteouls, and should not shirk their duty, as they too fre-quouliy did at prtwent.They were, moreover, in a brtlcr position (ban the Government to know how the Uw was evaded.Mr.Mercier ¦aid it woul I hardly fie b-dieved, but (he ex port-cr.ee of th) Government was that the soif-sinto respectable people who asked for a severe applicate u of toe Uw were often the very tirât to petition or sign | etitions asking that the tinea imposed on delinquents should bo remitted.Mr.Bhehyn corroborated this stwtemsnt, ami said his departments were full of petition».Mr.Mercisr (continuing) thought th« auggettion of a high license was deserving of Goasuleration, but tien the advocates of temperance and uro-hibition wire not even agreed among themselves on the subject of hifjh license, as evidenced by the attitude ol their principal organ, tho IFif-tuts.Tbe subject then dropped.HEDianilUUKON.The bill to increase the representation of Montreal, Quebec, Rimotuki, etc., then esme up, aud, after some discussion between the Frémi'rand

Mr.W.A.Po-lette that ho and his agent, Chagnoo.had pocketed $1,0C0 out of the transaction.He swore distinctly that personally ho bad never benefited to the extent of one cent from that or auy other

been sold by Goar-deau to Mr.Hurdman for $12,000.Mr.L«blacc aaid the property waa really worth $30,-000, and dosed by making a solemn declaration that he was informed on credible authority, and believed he waa in a poaition to prove it, that Mr.Murphy profited by hia position as a mamber of the licute and bis influence with Mr.Turcotte to obtain conc^aaion* under the name of Itowe for the sum of $3,000 properly belonging to the Crown of a value very much greater, thus causing a loea to the Grown of a very con-alderable sum : that Murphy declared that in order to obtain said patent he was obliged to pay to one of the merob»rs of the executive of the Province a bonus of $3,000 ; that if aaid dn-clarntion waa false, such conduct would render him unworthy of a seat in this Houae, while if it waa true it would render both members unworthy of sitting in the House, and that throughout this affair the interests of the Province nad been aacrified, therefore it was oec -a-tary in tbe interests of the province that an investigation be institnted.Mr.Murphy indignantly repudiated tho charge and declared himse lf ready t > absnd >n hi* seat if it could be proven that he had been
