were consumed in a discussion about a piece of sharp practice on the part of Mr.Colby, when introducinga Bll yesterday for the repeal of the Insulvent «Act.It seems that Mr, Bechard gave the Clerk of the House, im~ mediately after the Speech from the Throne was read, a notice of motion for the repeal of the Iasolvent Act.Mr.Colby, knowing the temper of the House, evidently thought that such a uieasure wonld be adopted, and desired to secure the credit for carrying it through, and, although he knew that Mr.Bechard intended to iatroduce a Bill having that object in view, he took advantage of Mr.Bechard\u2019s avowed intention, and got the stars of him yesterday by securing tue attention of the Speaker first, and intredacing what was supposed to be his Bll.Bat a little time afterwards, when some one asked the Clerk for Mr.Colby\u2019s Bill, it was found that a blank piece of paper had been folded, and endorsed as if it was a genuine Bill.Tae Sceuker\u2019s attention was privately called to the matter, and it is stated that Mr.Colby then handed the Cierk of the Huse one of Mc.Bechard\u2019s Bills of last session, with the date aid Mr, Becharc\u2019s nams expunged, and his own insertsd on the back.Mr.Bechard consequently thinks that be has been the victim of sharp practice, more particularly as to.day Mr.Colby has bad distributed printed Bills, copied verbatim from the formei\u2019s Bll of last session, THE DOXINION PARLIAMENT.FOURTH PARLIAMENT\u2014SECOND SESSION.HOUSE OF COMMONS.Ottawa, February 17.The Speaker took the Chair at 315 o\u2019cloek.Mr.SCRIVER presented a petition for the incorporation of a Company to build a railway from Dundes to the samo point on the St.Lawrence River, opposite Moc~ toeal The following bills were introduced :\u2014 Air.Bolduc\u2014:0 amend the Act for the election of members of the House of Commons; Hen.Mr.Baby\u2014To consolidate and amend toe Acts respecting Inland revenue.In reply to Mr.Blake, Sir JOHN A.MACDONALD stated that there had been confidential correspondenca bstween the Govrrament and the Right Hon.Secretary of the Colonies relative to the establishment of a permanent Canadian resident in London, which it would not be in the public interest now to mak- known, and that the Government had not received tha assurance of Imp-rial assistance by guarantee or otherwise in the construction of the Pacific Railway.Mr.KEELER moved for all reports cf the engineers of the Department cf Railways and Canals on the Murray Canal by way of the original canal reserve in the township of Muorray.\u2014Curried.Mr.MACDONNELL (Inverness) moved for a return of accidents which have oc.carred on the Intercolonial Railway since 1st January last, &e., &c.He said that be made that motion, because when, on his journey to Ottawa,no less than three accidents occurred on the [ntercolonial Railway.When ke took the fact that the Government prided itself in practicing the most strictee@nomy in connection with these accidents, he thought ib was his duty to insti an e:quiry, aud see whether such wag ff usual occurrence.SIE ARLES TUPPER said that, when tie return was brought dowr,it would show ubli¢ that the permanent way or ef the rolling stock bad not beon in'erfered with by the economy of the Government.He assured the House \u2018Saat the road was never in a better posi- fion than it was at present.During the last year ne accident to & passenger had occurred, but accidents to employes of the goad could not be prevented.\u2014Motion .; mestgge was sent from His Excel- @owernor-Ganeral recommending thé\\gramting of §100,000 to the Irish Relief Fund.- + JOHM MACDONALD gave notice thaWon Fhursday he would move a resolution tha* tka House go into Committes of the Whole on Friday to consider the message of His Excellency the Governor- General that had just been read.Tke House adjourned at four o\u2019clock.ONTARIO LEGISLATURE.LEGISLATIVE ASSEMBLY.Toronto, February 17.After routine, several Bills were read a third time, and passed.Mr.Harpy moved the House into Committee for to-morrow to consider tho resc- lution :\u2014 That the Lieutenant-Governor may from time to time appoint an Inspec'or of Division Courts, who shall hold office during pleasure, and that such Inspector may be.paid a salary not exceeding $1,400 per annum, and such actual and necessary travelling and other expenses as shall be from tims to time voted by the Legislature, and that the same shall be payable out of the Consolidated Revenue Fuad of the Province.\u2014 Carried.Mr.Crooks moved the second reading of the Bill respecting expenses of iaspect- ing Insurance Companies.Ho said it was intended to levy the expenses in future upon the amount of risks taken during the previous year.This would be a more equitable method than the present one, Mr.Crooks moved the House into Committes on certain amendments to the Pablic School Act, which were passed, It being six o'clock, the Hause rose.AFTER RECESS.On motion to go into Committee of Supply, Mr.Woon gave an explauation as to some of the items of the expenses incurred by the Lieut-nant-Governor in his trip to the North-Western Territories.He ine stanced some trips which had been made wien previous Goverrments were in power.He (Mr.Wood) ac- sumed the full \u2014responeibility of the trip of the Lieut.-Governor to the North-West Territory.Ha thought it ur- fortunate that within a short time of the expiry of the term of effice of the Lieut.~ Governor he should have been made the subjzct of attacks by the press.Heread a letter from His Honour, in which he requested that the items obj:cted to should be struck out of the estimates and charged to him, for which purpose he enclosed his cheque for $500, to ne applied to that purpose.He (Mr.Wood) moved that when the House went into Committee the amount charged in the Public Acsounts be reduced by $300.Mec.WrppiprELD said the custom followed was the usual one, As His Honour had requested that the items personal to him- selt should not be discussed he would move, \u201cThat the amount asked for in the Public Accounts be reduced by $350.\u201d Mr.Morey protested against the responsibility being shifted from the shoulders of the Government to those ef the Lieut.Gaveruog Mc.Merkoiru thought the master should have been left over until the Que bec Accounts Committee had got through with it.He regretted the Treasurer had sheltered himaelt behind the Lisut.-Gover- nor.There was no precedent for this expense.There was no parailel between what was done by the Dominion Government and what was dono by the Local Government, The trip to British Columbia was necessary to allay the ill-feeling which had been excited by the late Government.The trip cf the Lieut.-Governor was simply a pleasure trip, ard would not lead to any good result.Mr.Mowat said the Government were quite ready to face the question and the people; if the Lieutenant-Governor wished to pay certain personal charges he had a perfect right to do so.It had been agsert- ed that if the Government kad asked for a grant of $5,000 for this purpoze it would not have been granted.He was sure that if it had been asked for it would have been readily granted.Mr.MualicTER said that there was no reason because a ceitain trip bad been made on the \u201cChicora\u201d by a former Ge~ yernment that such trips ahould be con- paved: An item of $5,400 had been placed in the Pablic Accounts, and this evening a private letter had been brought down from the Lieut.Governor requesting an alteration in the estimates, This, he contended, was unconstitutional, and he quoted from May, ehewing the manner in which mec- sages from the Crown should be placed before the House.The Lieut.-Governor had been placed in a false position by the Treasurer.The Opposition did not object to some money being expended to muke the North-West known, but they did object to money being spent on a carouse.\u2018The records of constitutional Government would be sought in vain for suck a thing as à Soveroign offering his private chequa to screen bia Ministry.The Ministry are responsible fur this expenditare, and if they were men of courage they would never have allowed the Lieut.-Governor to attempt to screen them.The Ministry were the advisers of His Honour, and, therefore, the very fact of hia having sent down bis cheque showed that it waa done by the advice of his Ministry.The Hoa.Treasurer excused himself, but by doing so he accused himself.Ho imagined that when hon.gentlemen went on a trip they toek all the necessary articles with them, aad, therafore, they had no need of bath-towela.Did the Lieut.-Governor consumo all the bath=towels, old rye, cigars, and Apollinaris water ?After some humourous and satirical re- m'rkz &s tothe way in which the money was spent, the hon.member continued that the exponditure was utterly illegal and restitu ion was practiced.Lot those who took part in the trip be the ones to do it, and let thera not be a partial restitution by His Honour.It might be that the Opposition were not numerically strong, but the Hon.the First Minister should remember that, as regards the number of votes giver, the Opposition was a3 sirorg, or almost so, as the Government.The question for the people was whether the cxpenditurecf $5,400 was a proper one or not?The hon.gentleman once stood before the people as the Christian politician and he hoped that he would maintain that character.(Loud cheers).Mr.Harpy thought that the subject had been treated as a joke, but he imagined that the Opposition locked upon it as a grave constitutional question.The real reason was that hon.gentlemen felt that the wind had been taken out of their sails.After on few remarks from Mr.Lauder, Mr.Frazer replied at great length, coatending that the Lieut.-Governor had 8 pertect right to hand in the chzque for certain items of certain expenditure, rather than have his name unpleasantly discuased.The House adj>urned at midnight.AMUSEMENTS.ACADEMY OF MUSIC.H.M, S.PARLIAMENT.The second presentation of the parody last evening was excellent in every way.Many of the shortcomings of the first night were avoided and rectified, and from the opening scene to the end of the piece every hing went smoothly, and without a hitch.The more one sees the action of the piece, and hears the spicy dialogue, brimful as it is cf telling political hits, especially on that wonderful quack medicine of \u2018\u201c Sir Sillery,\u201d the N.P., the more it becomes apparant that, as \u201c\u2018 Pinafore\u201d showed up in a satirical manner the tinkering of the Beaconsfield Cabinet with the \u201c Royal Navy,\u201d so \u201c Parliament,\u201d ia equally as good & manner, exhibits the jobbery and trickery that exists in high place at Outawa.The parody, as we stated yesterday, is well constructed, and nothing init is offensive to any one, not evea to the political notables that are so capitally and cleverly drawn, and who figure in the casts.The Stage-Manager is to be congratulated on the setting of the piece.The two scenes, the library of the House of Commong, and the Parliament Buildings by moonlight, not forgetting the bee \u201chum,\u201d are most creditable and add tothe success of the piece very much.Mr.Smith, as * Sir Samuel Sillery, K.M.G.,\u201d gave areat satig= faction, and in his rong, *\u201c When I was a lad,\u201d brought down the house, especially when he alluded to his early life in compounding pills and labelling patent drugs.\u201c Captain McA.\u201d the Chieftain of the ship \u201c Parlizment,\u201d was well and cleverly impersonated by Mr.Charles Arnold.Mary of the little peculiarities of the Captain in the shapo of promises to needy eupporters and his questionable manner of keeping said supporters true to the ship were well brought out and caused much amusement to those thoroughly au fait with \u201cCapt.McA.\u2019s *\u2019 little political dodges.Mr, J.H, Stuart, as \u201c Alexander McDead- eye,\u201d was algo a smart and able performance, and the notable personated was easily recogniz:d.* Snifter,\u201d the blue-blooded Government clerk, by Mr.E.A.McDowell, was given to life, and could not have been b:tter played by any one.© Angelina,\u201d the Captain\u2019s daughter, by Mrs.McDowell, and \u201cBatterbun,\u201d by Mr.Andrew Waldren, were capital performances, and well carried out.The rest of the company, and the pages, a!l handsome little girls, gave good support, as did also the orchestra, under the leadership of Mr.Gruenwald.We can cordially recommend all our readers who wigh to enjoy a good evening of fun to see * Parliament \u2019 at the Academy.THEATRE ROYAL, THE HOLMAN TROUPE.The lovers of genuine music should not neglect the opportunity afforded to-night for witnessing the performance cf \u2018 Trial by Jury,\u201d and the Lakes of Killarney,\u201d by the Holman Company.Laat evening the bill proved sufficiently attractive to draw a good audience, and the efforts of the artists were such as to satisfy the most critical.Encores were the order of the night, and Miss Sallie Holman was presented with a magnificent bouquet.A strong addition to the corps is to be found in Miss Mary Sullivan, of New York, a young lady possessing a voite of more than ordinary compass with remarkable enunciation and a good stage presence.The plaintive music of Ireland has alwaya been admired, but never perhaps was ic put before the world in a more realistic manner than in \u201cThe Lakes of Killarney,\u201d for while the operas abounds in mirth and pathos, introducing the games and dames, ns well as the songs of * Quld Oireland,\u201d the sweet pretty notes of the national music ride as a top wava on top of all the rest.Miss Sallie Holman as Kate Kearney \u201d is excellent, her brogue and manner being that of a real daughter of Brin, while Miss Blanche Bradshaw treads closely on her heels as ** Rose,\u201d and then to havetitting company, Miss Sullivan comes along as \u201c Norah.\u201d Not one, but each of these ladies, were encored last night, if, indeed, Miss Brown was not in her impersonation of \u201c Filadume\u201d\u201d The gentlemen were not a whit worse than the ladies, for Mr.A.D.Holman as * Sandy O'Loughlin was a genuine Irishman, and

ER.Tux PARISIAN MUsiCAL JURY\u2014ÂMETER DAMS LOAN EXHIBITION \u2014T'RANSFORMA TIONS \u2014EARTHQUAKES.From our own Correspondent.i Paris, January 27, 1880.The election of the Musical Jury for the City of Paris tock place on Monday last, and resulted in the naming to that office of Messrs, Gounod, Massenet, Guirand, Leo Delibes, Masse and Saint Saena.Eight other members of the Jury are to be appointed by the Municipal Council, and four by the Prefect of the Seine.The latest reports concerning Dr.Bichard Wagner are to the effect that his malady (eryaipelàs of the face) is passing off, and that he is on the point of starting for Naples with his wife and ehildren for the benefit of his health, The Paris opsra is preparing a revival of Verdi's Adidas and Verliis urgently insisting on being allowed to combat her first performance of his work: but the members of the orchestra are fully determined to resist his demand, as they formerly did in the case of Gounod, from which decision of the first players in the world, it would appear that composers of great genius may be deficient in the less brilliant quaiities required for the skilful wielding ot the baton.The Society of Dutch artists, Arti et Amicitiæ, of Amsterdam, has entrusted to a committee the care of forming a Loan Exhibition of gold and silver objects of artistic value, executed before the commencement of the present century.This Exhibition, which will be of high\" interest, will be held in Amsterdam, in April, May, and June.Not only private collections, but the rare and .curious objects in the precious metals, contained in churches, town .halls, museums, halls of guilds and corporations, &ec., will be laid under contribution to render the Exhibition both interesting and instructive.The Committee express the wich that collectors of other countries, by confiding to them their possessions of a similar character, so ag to give an international character to the gathering, will add to its instructiveness by enabling students to.compare the works cf art of different periode and different mations.Among the rest of the characteristics of *¢ Old Paris \u201d that are rapidly disappearing, never to return, is that representative of an eminently French industry, the publie writer.Tia successive transformations of the streets of this capital will soon have caused the total disappearance of the little wooden structures once to familiar in the angles of the churches and other public buildings of this to »n, which served as the office and often as the dwelling, of the old nondescript of the inferior sex who therein dwelt as well as worked.One of the last of these humble calligraphic establish ments was in the Place Maubert.The professional was usually old; he was often well-educated ; one of the many who are driven by reverses to adopt some inferior trade for tne sake of bread.He usually wrote a good hand, ornamented with the scrapes and flourishes still in esteem in this country.He could usually turn a few verees where the aid of rhyme would be invoked by a customer for the more\u2019 effectual result on a recalcitrant héart or tke fuller conveyance of tue intensity of the tender passion of a couple of lovere.His clients were, of course, recruited among those who wera guiltless of the art of penmanship, and varied according to the quarter of the town in which he exercieed his calling.Near the markets, they cor- sisted mainly of peripotetic d-alers, market-gardeners, cooke, and scullieres ; in the wealiky quarters, his patrons were footmep, maidservants, gentlemen's coach - men, and 8) on.His most assiduous employers, however, wera always the water- carriers, and the petty deslers in fuel.But as they always bargained hard, and contrived never to pay as much as he asked, he cared but little for their custom.His favourite client was the soldier, wko generally knew exactly what he wanted his letter to say, paid his price without bargaining or grumbling, and never failed, when the missive was written to the Dulcinea of the hour, to carry off the scribe to a neighbouring wine-shop, where the pair luxuriated in a civet,a kidney, or other popular delicacy, washed down with a bottle of piquette.Such a day was always marked with a white stone in the memory of the poor quill-driver The \u201cpublic writer\u201d was the confidant of the most singular disclosures, the instrument of the greatest scandals and of endless pe'ty rascalitiss; ho it was who mada ,up the accounts cf the cook who cheated her mistress and served as the ac- complica of the lover who corresponded with the wife of his friend.In order to captivate the confidence of the public, be generally exhibited.in a conspicucus position, a card bearing the wcrde, beautifully written in copper-plate hand and elaborately ornamented, * Here is the tomb of secrets.\u201d Sometimes this sentence was replaced by a couplet; but sentence and couplet have both disappeared.© Sis transit,\u201d &c.The earthquake of Dacember 30 is greatly exercising, not only the people of Geneva, hut the whole of the Swiss nation.The scientifiz lights of the Confederation are conferring togethar and making ar- rargements for accurately measuring the duration ard forca of future shocke, should any occur.The occurrence of a shock at the beginning of the late remaikable pericd of frost, and of a s2cond shock at its close, is sufficiently curious to account for the amount of interest excited by the oceur- rence in scientific circles.The last oscil- laton though most distinctly felt at Geneva, Lausanne and in.the mountains of the Bex, was plainly perceived aa far as Berne and Chambery.\u2018\u2018 What has Lean may be again,\u201d says the proverb, and it is natural that the thrifty people who have little else than their.walnut-trees and mountains to live upon, shruld be disquieted at these intimations of the proxl- mity of an enemy quite capable of awal- lowing the Jongfrau-and Monte Rosa, overthrowing the Matterbcrn and eplitting Mont Blanc!

were consumed in a discussion about a piece of sharp practice on the part of Mr.Colby, when introducinga Bll yesterday for the repeal of the Insulvent «Act.It seems that Mr, Bechard gave the Clerk of the House, im~ mediately after the Speech from the Throne was read, a notice of motion for the repeal of the Iasolvent Act.Mr.Colby, knowing the temper of the House, evidently thought that such a uieasure wonld be adopted, and desired to secure the credit for carrying it through, and, although he knew that Mr.Bechard intended to iatroduce a Bill having that object in view, he took advantage of Mr.Bechard\u2019s avowed intention, and got the stars of him yesterday by securing tue attention of the Speaker first, and intredacing what was supposed to be his Bll.Bat a little time afterwards, when some one asked the Clerk for Mr.Colby\u2019s Bill, it was found that a blank piece of paper had been folded, and endorsed as if it was a genuine Bill.Tae Sceuker\u2019s attention was privately called to the matter, and it is stated that Mr.Colby then handed the Cierk of the Huse one of Mc.Bechard\u2019s Bills of last session, with the date aid Mr, Becharc\u2019s nams expunged, and his own insertsd on the back.Mr.Bechard consequently thinks that be has been the victim of sharp practice, more particularly as to.day Mr.Colby has bad distributed printed Bills, copied verbatim from the formei\u2019s Bll of last session, THE DOXINION PARLIAMENT.FOURTH PARLIAMENT\u2014SECOND SESSION.HOUSE OF COMMONS.Ottawa, February 17.The Speaker took the Chair at 315 o\u2019cloek.Mr.SCRIVER presented a petition for the incorporation of a Company to build a railway from Dundes to the samo point on the St.Lawrence River, opposite Moc~ toeal The following bills were introduced :\u2014 Air.Bolduc\u2014:0 amend the Act for the election of members of the House of Commons; Hen.Mr.Baby\u2014To consolidate and amend toe Acts respecting Inland revenue.In reply to Mr.Blake, Sir JOHN A.MACDONALD stated that there had been confidential correspondenca bstween the Govrrament and the Right Hon.Secretary of the Colonies relative to the establishment of a permanent Canadian resident in London, which it would not be in the public interest now to mak- known, and that the Government had not received tha assurance of Imp-rial assistance by guarantee or otherwise in the construction of the Pacific Railway.Mr.KEELER moved for all reports cf the engineers of the Department cf Railways and Canals on the Murray Canal by way of the original canal reserve in the township of Muorray.\u2014Curried.Mr.MACDONNELL (Inverness) moved for a return of accidents which have oc.carred on the Intercolonial Railway since 1st January last, &e., &c.He said that be made that motion, because when, on his journey to Ottawa,no less than three accidents occurred on the [ntercolonial Railway.When ke took the fact that the Government prided itself in practicing the most strictee@nomy in connection with these accidents, he thought ib was his duty to insti an e:quiry, aud see whether such wag ff usual occurrence.SIE ARLES TUPPER said that, when tie return was brought dowr,it would show ubli¢ that the permanent way or ef the rolling stock bad not beon in'erfered with by the economy of the Government.He assured the House \u2018Saat the road was never in a better posi- fion than it was at present.During the last year ne accident to & passenger had occurred, but accidents to employes of the goad could not be prevented.\u2014Motion .; mestgge was sent from His Excel- @owernor-Ganeral recommending thé\\gramting of §100,000 to the Irish Relief Fund.- + JOHM MACDONALD gave notice thaWon Fhursday he would move a resolution tha* tka House go into Committes of the Whole on Friday to consider the message of His Excellency the Governor- General that had just been read.Tke House adjourned at four o\u2019clock.ONTARIO LEGISLATURE.LEGISLATIVE ASSEMBLY.Toronto, February 17.After routine, several Bills were read a third time, and passed.Mr.Harpy moved the House into Committee for to-morrow to consider tho resc- lution :\u2014 That the Lieutenant-Governor may from time to time appoint an Inspec'or of Division Courts, who shall hold office during pleasure, and that such Inspector may be.paid a salary not exceeding $1,400 per annum, and such actual and necessary travelling and other expenses as shall be from tims to time voted by the Legislature, and that the same shall be payable out of the Consolidated Revenue Fuad of the Province.\u2014 Carried.Mr.Crooks moved the second reading of the Bill respecting expenses of iaspect- ing Insurance Companies.Ho said it was intended to levy the expenses in future upon the amount of risks taken during the previous year.This would be a more equitable method than the present one, Mr.Crooks moved the House into Committes on certain amendments to the Pablic School Act, which were passed, It being six o'clock, the Hause rose.AFTER RECESS.On motion to go into Committee of Supply, Mr.Woon gave an explauation as to some of the items of the expenses incurred by the Lieut-nant-Governor in his trip to the North-Western Territories.He ine stanced some trips which had been made wien previous Goverrments were in power.He (Mr.Wood) ac- sumed the full \u2014responeibility of the trip of the Lieut.-Governor to the North-West Territory.Ha thought it ur- fortunate that within a short time of the expiry of the term of effice of the Lieut.~ Governor he should have been made the subjzct of attacks by the press.Heread a letter from His Honour, in which he requested that the items obj:cted to should be struck out of the estimates and charged to him, for which purpose he enclosed his cheque for $500, to ne applied to that purpose.He (Mr.Wood) moved that when the House went into Committee the amount charged in the Public Acsounts be reduced by $300.Mec.WrppiprELD said the custom followed was the usual one, As His Honour had requested that the items personal to him- selt should not be discussed he would move, \u201cThat the amount asked for in the Public Accounts be reduced by $350.\u201d Mr.Morey protested against the responsibility being shifted from the shoulders of the Government to those ef the Lieut.Gaveruog Mc.Merkoiru thought the master should have been left over until the Que bec Accounts Committee had got through with it.He regretted the Treasurer had sheltered himaelt behind the Lisut.-Gover- nor.There was no precedent for this expense.There was no parailel between what was done by the Dominion Government and what was dono by the Local Government, The trip to British Columbia was necessary to allay the ill-feeling which had been excited by the late Government.The trip cf the Lieut.-Governor was simply a pleasure trip, ard would not lead to any good result.Mr.Mowat said the Government were quite ready to face the question and the people; if the Lieutenant-Governor wished to pay certain personal charges he had a perfect right to do so.It had been agsert- ed that if the Government kad asked for a grant of $5,000 for this purpoze it would not have been granted.He was sure that if it had been asked for it would have been readily granted.Mr.MualicTER said that there was no reason because a ceitain trip bad been made on the \u201cChicora\u201d by a former Ge~ yernment that such trips ahould be con- paved: An item of $5,400 had been placed in the Pablic Accounts, and this evening a private letter had been brought down from the Lieut.Governor requesting an alteration in the estimates, This, he contended, was unconstitutional, and he quoted from May, ehewing the manner in which mec- sages from the Crown should be placed before the House.The Lieut.-Governor had been placed in a false position by the Treasurer.The Opposition did not object to some money being expended to muke the North-West known, but they did object to money being spent on a carouse.\u2018The records of constitutional Government would be sought in vain for suck a thing as à Soveroign offering his private chequa to screen bia Ministry.The Ministry are responsible fur this expenditare, and if they were men of courage they would never have allowed the Lieut.-Governor to attempt to screen them.The Ministry were the advisers of His Honour, and, therefore, the very fact of hia having sent down bis cheque showed that it waa done by the advice of his Ministry.The Hoa.Treasurer excused himself, but by doing so he accused himself.Ho imagined that when hon.gentlemen went on a trip they toek all the necessary articles with them, aad, therafore, they had no need of bath-towela.Did the Lieut.-Governor consumo all the bath=towels, old rye, cigars, and Apollinaris water ?After some humourous and satirical re- m'rkz &s tothe way in which the money was spent, the hon.member continued that the exponditure was utterly illegal and restitu ion was practiced.Lot those who took part in the trip be the ones to do it, and let thera not be a partial restitution by His Honour.It might be that the Opposition were not numerically strong, but the Hon.the First Minister should remember that, as regards the number of votes giver, the Opposition was a3 sirorg, or almost so, as the Government.The question for the people was whether the cxpenditurecf $5,400 was a proper one or not?The hon.gentleman once stood before the people as the Christian politician and he hoped that he would maintain that character.(Loud cheers).Mr.Harpy thought that the subject had been treated as a joke, but he imagined that the Opposition locked upon it as a grave constitutional question.The real reason was that hon.gentlemen felt that the wind had been taken out of their sails.After on few remarks from Mr.Lauder, Mr.Frazer replied at great length, coatending that the Lieut.-Governor had 8 pertect right to hand in the chzque for certain items of certain expenditure, rather than have his name unpleasantly discuased.The House adj>urned at midnight.AMUSEMENTS.ACADEMY OF MUSIC.H.M, S.PARLIAMENT.The second presentation of the parody last evening was excellent in every way.Many of the shortcomings of the first night were avoided and rectified, and from the opening scene to the end of the piece every hing went smoothly, and without a hitch.The more one sees the action of the piece, and hears the spicy dialogue, brimful as it is cf telling political hits, especially on that wonderful quack medicine of \u2018\u201c Sir Sillery,\u201d the N.P., the more it becomes apparant that, as \u201c\u2018 Pinafore\u201d showed up in a satirical manner the tinkering of the Beaconsfield Cabinet with the \u201c Royal Navy,\u201d so \u201c Parliament,\u201d ia equally as good & manner, exhibits the jobbery and trickery that exists in high place at Outawa.The parody, as we stated yesterday, is well constructed, and nothing init is offensive to any one, not evea to the political notables that are so capitally and cleverly drawn, and who figure in the casts.The Stage-Manager is to be congratulated on the setting of the piece.The two scenes, the library of the House of Commong, and the Parliament Buildings by moonlight, not forgetting the bee \u201chum,\u201d are most creditable and add tothe success of the piece very much.Mr.Smith, as * Sir Samuel Sillery, K.M.G.,\u201d gave areat satig= faction, and in his rong, *\u201c When I was a lad,\u201d brought down the house, especially when he alluded to his early life in compounding pills and labelling patent drugs.\u201c Captain McA.\u201d the Chieftain of the ship \u201c Parlizment,\u201d was well and cleverly impersonated by Mr.Charles Arnold.Mary of the little peculiarities of the Captain in the shapo of promises to needy eupporters and his questionable manner of keeping said supporters true to the ship were well brought out and caused much amusement to those thoroughly au fait with \u201cCapt.McA.\u2019s *\u2019 little political dodges.Mr, J.H, Stuart, as \u201c Alexander McDead- eye,\u201d was algo a smart and able performance, and the notable personated was easily recogniz:d.* Snifter,\u201d the blue-blooded Government clerk, by Mr.E.A.McDowell, was given to life, and could not have been b:tter played by any one.© Angelina,\u201d the Captain\u2019s daughter, by Mrs.McDowell, and \u201cBatterbun,\u201d by Mr.Andrew Waldren, were capital performances, and well carried out.The rest of the company, and the pages, a!l handsome little girls, gave good support, as did also the orchestra, under the leadership of Mr.Gruenwald.We can cordially recommend all our readers who wigh to enjoy a good evening of fun to see * Parliament \u2019 at the Academy.THEATRE ROYAL, THE HOLMAN TROUPE.The lovers of genuine music should not neglect the opportunity afforded to-night for witnessing the performance cf \u2018 Trial by Jury,\u201d and the Lakes of Killarney,\u201d by the Holman Company.Laat evening the bill proved sufficiently attractive to draw a good audience, and the efforts of the artists were such as to satisfy the most critical.Encores were the order of the night, and Miss Sallie Holman was presented with a magnificent bouquet.A strong addition to the corps is to be found in Miss Mary Sullivan, of New York, a young lady possessing a voite of more than ordinary compass with remarkable enunciation and a good stage presence.The plaintive music of Ireland has alwaya been admired, but never perhaps was ic put before the world in a more realistic manner than in \u201cThe Lakes of Killarney,\u201d for while the operas abounds in mirth and pathos, introducing the games and dames, ns well as the songs of * Quld Oireland,\u201d the sweet pretty notes of the national music ride as a top wava on top of all the rest.Miss Sallie Holman as Kate Kearney \u201d is excellent, her brogue and manner being that of a real daughter of Brin, while Miss Blanche Bradshaw treads closely on her heels as ** Rose,\u201d and then to havetitting company, Miss Sullivan comes along as \u201c Norah.\u201d Not one, but each of these ladies, were encored last night, if, indeed, Miss Brown was not in her impersonation of \u201c Filadume\u201d\u201d The gentlemen were not a whit worse than the ladies, for Mr.A.D.Holman as * Sandy O'Loughlin was a genuine Irishman, and Mr.J.T.Dalton as \u201c Ned Ryan\u201d might have been a mew caught Patlander, and Mr.À.H.King was a splendid representative of the shebeec \\ Before T work of theÂfter Taking, brain and nervous

ER.Tux PARISIAN MUsiCAL JURY\u2014ÂMETER DAMS LOAN EXHIBITION \u2014T'RANSFORMA TIONS \u2014EARTHQUAKES.From our own Correspondent.i Paris, January 27, 1880.The election of the Musical Jury for the City of Paris tock place on Monday last, and resulted in the naming to that office of Messrs, Gounod, Massenet, Guirand, Leo Delibes, Masse and Saint Saena.Eight other members of the Jury are to be appointed by the Municipal Council, and four by the Prefect of the Seine.The latest reports concerning Dr.Bichard Wagner are to the effect that his malady (eryaipelàs of the face) is passing off, and that he is on the point of starting for Naples with his wife and ehildren for the benefit of his health, The Paris opsra is preparing a revival of Verdi's Adidas and Verliis urgently insisting on being allowed to combat her first performance of his work: but the members of the orchestra are fully determined to resist his demand, as they formerly did in the case of Gounod, from which decision of the first players in the world, it would appear that composers of great genius may be deficient in the less brilliant quaiities required for the skilful wielding ot the baton.The Society of Dutch artists, Arti et Amicitiæ, of Amsterdam, has entrusted to a committee the care of forming a Loan Exhibition of gold and silver objects of artistic value, executed before the commencement of the present century.This Exhibition, which will be of high\" interest, will be held in Amsterdam, in April, May, and June.Not only private collections, but the rare and .curious objects in the precious metals, contained in churches, town .halls, museums, halls of guilds and corporations, &ec., will be laid under contribution to render the Exhibition both interesting and instructive.The Committee express the wich that collectors of other countries, by confiding to them their possessions of a similar character, so ag to give an international character to the gathering, will add to its instructiveness by enabling students to.compare the works cf art of different periode and different mations.Among the rest of the characteristics of *¢ Old Paris \u201d that are rapidly disappearing, never to return, is that representative of an eminently French industry, the publie writer.Tia successive transformations of the streets of this capital will soon have caused the total disappearance of the little wooden structures once to familiar in the angles of the churches and other public buildings of this to »n, which served as the office and often as the dwelling, of the old nondescript of the inferior sex who therein dwelt as well as worked.One of the last of these humble calligraphic establish ments was in the Place Maubert.The professional was usually old; he was often well-educated ; one of the many who are driven by reverses to adopt some inferior trade for tne sake of bread.He usually wrote a good hand, ornamented with the scrapes and flourishes still in esteem in this country.He could usually turn a few verees where the aid of rhyme would be invoked by a customer for the more\u2019 effectual result on a recalcitrant héart or tke fuller conveyance of tue intensity of the tender passion of a couple of lovere.His clients were, of course, recruited among those who wera guiltless of the art of penmanship, and varied according to the quarter of the town in which he exercieed his calling.Near the markets, they cor- sisted mainly of peripotetic d-alers, market-gardeners, cooke, and scullieres ; in the wealiky quarters, his patrons were footmep, maidservants, gentlemen's coach - men, and 8) on.His most assiduous employers, however, wera always the water- carriers, and the petty deslers in fuel.But as they always bargained hard, and contrived never to pay as much as he asked, he cared but little for their custom.His favourite client was the soldier, wko generally knew exactly what he wanted his letter to say, paid his price without bargaining or grumbling, and never failed, when the missive was written to the Dulcinea of the hour, to carry off the scribe to a neighbouring wine-shop, where the pair luxuriated in a civet,a kidney, or other popular delicacy, washed down with a bottle of piquette.Such a day was always marked with a white stone in the memory of the poor quill-driver The \u201cpublic writer\u201d was the confidant of the most singular disclosures, the instrument of the greatest scandals and of endless pe'ty rascalitiss; ho it was who mada ,up the accounts cf the cook who cheated her mistress and served as the ac- complica of the lover who corresponded with the wife of his friend.In order to captivate the confidence of the public, be generally exhibited.in a conspicucus position, a card bearing the wcrde, beautifully written in copper-plate hand and elaborately ornamented, * Here is the tomb of secrets.\u201d Sometimes this sentence was replaced by a couplet; but sentence and couplet have both disappeared.© Sis transit,\u201d &c.The earthquake of Dacember 30 is greatly exercising, not only the people of Geneva, hut the whole of the Swiss nation.The scientifiz lights of the Confederation are conferring togethar and making ar- rargements for accurately measuring the duration ard forca of future shocke, should any occur.The occurrence of a shock at the beginning of the late remaikable pericd of frost, and of a s2cond shock at its close, is sufficiently curious to account for the amount of interest excited by the oceur- rence in scientific circles.The last oscil- laton though most distinctly felt at Geneva, Lausanne and in.the mountains of the Bex, was plainly perceived aa far as Berne and Chambery.\u2018\u2018 What has Lean may be again,\u201d says the proverb, and it is natural that the thrifty people who have little else than their.walnut-trees and mountains to live upon, shruld be disquieted at these intimations of the proxl- mity of an enemy quite capable of awal- lowing the Jongfrau-and Monte Rosa, overthrowing the Matterbcrn and eplitting Mont Blanc!
