steamship \u201cGlenmoray,\u201d \u20acCapt.Dawson, which arrived from Calcutta yesterday, had on board 11 men and boys of the crew and two of the passengers belonging to the steamship \u201cBahama,\u201d of Quebec, which was lost, on Friday last,in lat.32.30 N.and long.72.15 W.Capt.Astwood, two second- class passengers and 17 members of the crew have probably been lost.The \u201cBahama\u201d left St.John, Porto Rico, on February 4th at 6 o'clock p.m.All went well until the evening of the 9th, when the barometer fell and a keavy storm burst on the steamer at miduight.At 2 o'clock next morning a squall, WITH THUNDER AND LIGHTNING, was encountered, and sail was shortened.A heavy cross-sex was running, and great quantities of water were shipped.At 3 a.m.the h2ad-sails were set, in order to bring the vessel around.A large sea rolled up from starboard, and at this time broke over the vessel, throwing her on her beam ends.The starboard bulwarks were swept away and the two life-boats on that side were carried off, the water poured down the engine rooms putting out the fires, and Captain Astwood found that the vessel was unmanageable.She did not seem able to keep above water much longer, so he informed the passengers that he was about to ABANDON THE © BAHAMA.\u201d At four o'clock the Captain ordered the two remaining boats left on the port side to be lowered.A white man who was a second cabin passenger, was seen returning to his room on the starboard side in order to save some properiy which he had left there, this man was washed overboard and drowned.The Captain with another second-elass passenger and fifteen members of the crew got into one boat, and the first and second officers with two cabin passengers and nine men manned the other which, although metallic and in two compartments, was but sixteen feet in length.The Captain gave his chief officer a compass and told him that Bermuda was .315 miles to the eastward.He also gave him the number of miles and the course to to steer for in order te reach Savannah.The captain was cool and collected as he gave his officers these directions.There was a quantity of bread and water in each of the boats.Three members of the crew had refused te risk their lives in the over crowded boats, they said that they would stay on board and run the chances of being picked up by some passing vessel, these were the second cook, the pantry-man and Paul Matron, who was regarded as being the best seaman in the crew.Thc two boats pushed off from the wreck and were tossed about like chips by the waves, which rose fully sixty feet in height.Scarcely five minutes after the occupants of the metallic boats saw the captain's beat SWAMPED BY A GREAT SEA a man, supposed to be Thomas George, a fireman, was seen struggling back to the wreck.He reached the shrouds but noone knows whether he ever got on board.Charles Smith, a seaman, also swam towards the wreck and was hoisted on board by the three men who had refused to give up the ship.Captain Astwood and the other occupants of the boat all perished when it was swamped.The other beat kept afloat although the water frequently poured over her gunwales, the men were kept busy in bailing her out, but they occasionally found time to handle the oars.Mr.Ross, the second mate, had once belonged toa life saving station, and his advice proved of great service in keeping the boat from swamping.The wreck was soon out of sight, and at 5 o'clock a barque was sighted but did not come within hailing distance.She was apparently headed toward the wreck, but it is highly probably that she rescued the men who bad remained on board.The officers and the two passengers believed by the time daylight came the 4 Bahama \u201d MUST HAVE GONE DOWN.Owing te the crowded condition of the boat it narrowly escaped, eing swamped several times.The salt water spoiled fresh and soaked the bread so that it was not fit to eat.A small sail was set but the oars were still used when the men were not bailing out the boat.At12.30 a full-rigged ship, bound north, was sighted, she seemed to be steering toward the boat, but at 3 o'clock the latter was at least three miles to leeward of the ship.The shipwrecked men waved their hats and shouted, and at 3.30 they saw the mainyards ot a ship backed, the second officer ofthe latter observed the boats and the vessel was hove to.There was a pull of two miles before the boat could reach the ship, but the men BENT TO THE OARS WITH A WILL and made their way in the teeth of the wind and the sea.They were almost ex- haustdd when the ship was reached aad she proved to be the © Glenmorag.\u201d The survivors received every kindness on board this vessel.The following are the names of THOBE WHQ PERISHED, some

to-day.Major-General Luard read a communication from Col.DeWinton, expressing regret that, owing to a press of business, His Excellency the Governor Genera! was unable to attend the meeting, as he had anticipated.General Luard said, that to obviate the necessity of reading the whole report of the Dominion Artillery Association, he would read from page 30, also from page 32, showing the credits awarded each battery for efficiency, Captain McRae, of No.2 Ontario Battery, was complimented on the efficiency of his Battery.The Ottawa Feld Battery was also mentioned as having made the highest score.General Luard also referred to the achievement of the Canadian Artillery Team at Shoeburyness and the beautiful trophy which His Excellency the Governor-General had given for competition had been carried home in triumph by them and now graced the table around which the Associatian sat.Lt.-Col.Oswald, M.G.A., then read his report of the # Kirst Canadian Artillery Team \u201d at Shoeburyness, of which team Lieut.-Col.Oswald himself was Commandant.The report contained, first a reference to the formation of the team and a brief account of the different contests entered into by the team in England \u2018with the result of each and the various disadvantages under which the Canadian team laboured.Lt.-Col.Oswald referred in his report to the many kindnesses and the hearty welcome and hospitality extended to hem while in England by the officers of the National Artillery Association, in whose care they were.Speaking of the Marquis of Londonderry, Lt.-Col.Oswald paid a high tribute of praise to His Excellence and his hospitality.The report said, \u201cOn the day before I left Seaham, His Lordship was good enoughfito present me with a life-size oil-painting of himself, which I now kave the pleasure of presenting to this Association, the members of which will, no doubt, fully appreciate the right, one worthy of the noble donor.\u201d The report also reterred in praise of the team from the Canadian Artillery.The want of proper ordnancee was a serious weak spot in our Dominion Artillery, and it would be vain for us to expect to do much good in competing with our brother warriors in England without practice with the weapon used by them.The financial statement was read which recommended should be divided between the members of the 1881 Team, which | Mich.would amount to $30 each.The report further contained an extract from the Volunteer Guzette of the 13:h ot August, 1881, which described the fine appearance of the Canada Teum, as well as commended their expert handling of ordnance.General Luard then thanked Licut.- Colonel Oswald in appropriate terms: General Stranga said that he found one great omission in this report, and trat wag an omission of augmention of Lieut.-Colonel Oswald himself, to whose efforts and personal sacrifice the success f the venture was largely due.He proposed that the cup which had been given for competition by our own Gover- nor-General and won and carried home to Canada by the prowess of our team be given to Lieut.-Col.Oswald, and, further, that the portrait of the Marquis of Londonderry, kindly given by Lieut.-Col.Oswald | to the Association, be placed in his (Lieut.- Col.Oswald\u2019s) keeping till such time as the Dominion Artillery Association could boast -of a suitable abiding place.Maj.-Gen.Strange also commented on the want of suitable guns, even for practice, which was a serious drawback to the progress of our Artillery Teams.The General also paid a touching tribute to the memory of the late Sir William Palliser, and recommended that a memorial of condolence with the family of the deceased be forwarded trom the Association.Gen.Luard read a .etter, just received, from Col.DeWinton, expressing the regret of His Exceliency the Governor-t#eneral at being unable to attend the meeting of the Association, and stating that His Excellency would leave to the disposal of the Council all tha prizes presented by him for competition.The annual report of the Association and that of Lieut.-Col.Oswald were unanimously received.Moved by Capt.MacRae, seconded by Lieutenant-Colonel Oswald, that the meeting recommend the Council to memoralize the National Artillery Ase sociation of Great Britain, that their system of scoring for the next meeting be changed to the system of points based on the parallelogram of error.Carried.The subject of Government support in sending another team to England to compete in the artillery matches next year was brought up.A proposition to ask the Government for farther assistance this year, was moved by General Luard and seconded by General Strange.Col.Irwin then asked that a number of changes in the selection of artillerymen to compose teams for sending to Shoeburyness be made.That the teams be composed of volunteers actually enrolled in the volunteer service.This would exclude the men of \u201cA\u201d and \u201cB\u201d Batteries and the Cadets.Considerable argument followed as to the proboble results of such changes, it was thought that the selection should be made indiscriminately, that is without regard to the men having served either in \u201cA\u201dor«B\u201d Battery, or having attended the sehool of gunnery, and as the teams in England had made ne objection to the team sent from Canada last year, but had expressed their entire satisfaction with them, it would be better not to make any changes in the selection of the men till they have taken the initiatory step.It was decided to conduct the shifting ordnance competition between « A\u201d and \u201cB\u201d Batteries on the same basis as last year.A suggestion was made that the Cadets of the Royal Military College be admitted to this competition, but as it would exclude them from other competitions it was not acted upon.It was decided to memorialise Government to offer better facilities to officers for obtaining first-class certificates, after which the meeting ad journed.LATEST SHIPPING NEW YORK, February 16.\u2014Arrived-\u2014 S8.Pollux from Amsterdam, Schiedam from.Rotterdam and Abyssinia from Liverpool.The steamer

an Irish writer has called it, the mother country sends many things its people do not want, and the consequences too frequently are an overstocked market and a depressed trade.From this category we beg leave, however, to exclude two articles \u2014the two celebrated remedies of Professor Holloway.Throughout Australasia they are at a premium.The Pills and Ointment are considered the most profit able commodities that can be taken to the diggings, as their efficacy in the diseases common in the gold region is well known to every nugget-hunter, and they are therefore eagerly bought upat any price by those toilers afler the ** mammon of unrighteousness.\u201d For bilious fevers and all disorders of the liver and bowels which prevail on the auriferous soils of the interior, the Pills appear to be a positive, immediate and invariable cure.We have seen returned gold hunters from the *¢ diggings,\u201d and théir reports on this head are upiform, Nor is the testimony less conclusive in relation to the Ointment as a means of relieving rheumatism aod neuralgia, and healing the wounds, abrasions, contusions, &c., incident to a hard life in the wilderness.In short, every one in ¢ the bush\u201d looks upon Holloway\u2019s two preparations as a sufficient medicine chest for all the disorders of his outer and inner man.He knows, for he has wintered with them and summered with them beyond the settlements, that they are his surest reliance in sickness at all seasons and under all circumstances.Almost every digger has some anecdote to relate of the cures they have performed.Limbs saved from mortification, ulcers preserved from gangrene, contracted joints relaxed, liver disease arrested, dysentry and diarrhea cured\u2014these are their trophies.In fact they are among the good things of which we cannot have too much, and although the imports at present are so large as almost to be incredible, still the demand keeps in advance of the supply.Furnished with these remedies the digger and settler have little need of medical advice, for it seems beyond question that their curative effects cover the whole circle of diseases and a large portion of the chapter of accidents.Of what use is success to the digger if, when fortune is achieved, he die beside his hoard?and how many lives that were sacrificed in the early days of the gold discoveries might have been saved by these inestimable prepara- tione\u2014 The Digger.ON THIRTY DAYS' TRIAL.We will send Dr.Dye's Celebrated Elec tro- Voltaic Belts and otker Electric Appliances on trial tor thirty days to young men and older

Sheep met a rather firmer trade, but no advance on last week's rates can be quoted.127 useful States Cattle were sold yesterday at the Foreign Auimals Wharf, Yorkhill, which met a dull trade at from 70s @ 73s per ewt.Top Scotch, 80s per cwt, Secondary, 74s @ 76s;

E Field Bermuda, Heyghton, chief engineer, New York; Jas.Fulton, purser; Robert Foster, George Foster, Thomas George, Patrick, McCarthy, John Ryan, Charles Smith, William O\u2019Brien, Paul Wattaran, G Bikner, Felix Dubhe, all of Quebec ; Whi'eman, from Porto Rico ; a passeuger belonging to Ottawa, Canada, name unkuown; a passenger, coloured man, native of Porio Rico, name unknown; pas-enger Jobu Mullins, from Halifax; Charles and John Peterson, both of Swedea; James Ferrell, St.Johns, N.F.; total, 20.There wego only four passengers, two of whom were rescued.Wickman, the man from Porto Rico, ran Yelow to secure some clothing while his companions were leav- iug the sinking ship, He was undoubtedly washed overboard.Scarcely had tue Captain\u2019s boat rowed 20 yards from the sinking ship when a great wave overwhelmed it.The occupants of the other boat.heard one awful shriek above the howling gale and tten all was over.For a moment they saw the Captain's boat floating, capsized, and here and there a hand stretched, appealing for help.All were drowned but two sailors of hercularean build, who fought the sea with the strength of despair until they reached the steamer.One dragged himself upon deck and then with a wild glance in the direction of the secoad boat, sprang into the waves to swim towards it.He was not seen again.Two others of those in the Captain's boat also reached the steamer.He clung to the shrouds and his piteous appeal for help could be heard by his fast receding comrades above the fury of the storm.Those in the second boat owe their lives to the skill of the second officer, Robt.Koss.The boat was of iron on.y 13 fect in length and thirteen people crowded in her, so that the gunwales were scarcely above water.The sea ran mountains high.The survivors were in the boat 12 hours before being rescued.They were exhausted and famished.It is barely possible the men who remained on the Bahama were taken off by the passing barque.\u2019 Arrived\u2014Denmark, from London;

Do sing it to me.\u201d There was nothing better to be done than to sit down and execute the « Charge\u201d with spirit.Mrs.Fitz James listened abstractedly, obviously engaged in profound and troublous reflections, but murmuring from moment to moment: \u201c Oh, thats lovely.Isn't it lovely! Too sweet for anything.And he gave it to you?What a perfectly irresistible man he is ! \u201d She Had nothing to say of the heroic strite, nothing of the « knightly dead,\u201d nothing of the clarion wusic.When the song was ended she at once began to talk of something else.Presently she got Virginia to essay her own aria, a trivial bit of love-making nonsense.But allthis while it was as clear as possible that she was meditating with her whole feather-headed might.At last the attack came: she recommenced about Colonel Peyton: he was irresistible\u2014perfectly irresistible\u2014wasn t he, my dear?Virginia grew fretful under the repetition of the phrase, and finally responded with some asperity, \u201c You may find him so, Mrs.Fitz James.\u201d « So do other women,\u201d said Lotharinga, quickly.« I came across one of his conquests this morning.Sucha pretty girl! And such a nice girl !\u2014as I had supposed.It is really too bad to tell on her.You must keep it a solemn secret\u2014promise me now.You wouldn't think it cf our demure little Irish thing, would you?\u201d Virginia had not been able to help listening, nor could she help turning hot and red with anger.Her first impulse, no doubt, was to tell the scandal-monger that her whole story was a stupid misunderstanding or a wicked fabrication.But she was self-possessed enough, er, more likely, paralyzed enough, to remain speechless.It was the amazed Mrs.Dumont who demanded, \u201cDo you mean Miss Macmorran ?\u201d \u201cJust Miss Macmorran, and nobody else,\u201d affirmed Lotharinga, bearing on to her words significantly.«Oh, I don't know how much it amounts to,\u201d she added with the candour of a serpent.# I only suspect.But, my dears, I suspect\u2014volumes.\u201d Virginia still sat silent, a spot of crimson in either cheek, and her eyes settled sternly on the babbler's face.Lotharinga\u2019s glance dropped, and then wandered away to Mrs.Dumont, like a scared loon diving in one spot to come up in another.4 I met them in the Luxembourg,\u201d she hurried on, determined to finish her tale.«They bad a long and confidential talk.Then Colonel Peyton saw me and stole away.I went straight up to Miss Macmorran and pumped her.She is a sly little piece, with her nunnery face and downcast eyes and subdued voice.Oh, she was awfully adroit ; she dodged and evaded in wonderful style ; she was almost too much for me.But I learned something.I learned that there had been an intimacy in America.\u201d At last Virginia spoke.She had looked once or twice at her aunt with an expression which asked, \u201cAre you net going to stop her ?\u201d Now she broke out energetically: « Why do you go on with this, Mrs.Fitz James?I prefer not to hear any more about it.\u201d # Oh, well\u2014if it annoys you\u2014certainly,\u201d returned Lotharinga, mal ciously.\u201c Let us talk of something more genteel.\u201d But the converation dragged, and ere long she had her cab summoned and drove home, cheered by the belief, perhaps, that she had spoiled Colonel Peyton's market with Miss Beaufort.It is entertaining by- the-way, to think what would have been her stupefaction and wrath, could she have learned that the two supposed lovers whom she was trying to separate were husband and wife.The moment she had departed, Virginia turned to her aunt acd asked, \u201c How are we to behave to Miss Macmorran ?7 « How indeed ?\u201d answered the perplexed lady.\u201cI cau\u2019t believe ill of that modest, simple little thing.And yet, there is that old affair in Charleston, her interest in Mr, Underhill, you remember.She may be aided by rich men, and under obligations to them.Singers sometimes get on in that way, and of course get more or less entangled.It is a little suspicious\u2014have you noticed the fact, Virginia ?-\u2014\u2014that she doesn\u2019t come to see us of late\u2014not once since Colonel Peyton appeared.\u201d « I shall not look her up,\u201d said Virginia, after a long meditation.« But if she calls, I shall treat her well, until we learn more.\u201d i Yes, indeed! We know nothing as yet.Mrs.Fitz James is a flibbertigibbet.I wish she would leave Paris.\u201d « It makes my course all the easier,\u201d added Virginia, with a sigh.\u201c What course?Whatare you talking about ?\u201d « My course with regard to Mr.Peyton.\u201d Mrs.Dumont looked undecided, but made no remonstrance.It was clear that both ladics had believed somewhat of the gabble of Lotharinga, and that both were now little as poseible of the charming Colonel.(To be Continued.)

Synod ofthe Church of Scotland in Canada, &c.COMISG EVENTS.There is life in the good cause yet.The result of the late elections was at first, it must be confessed, calculated to have a depressing effect on the spirits and hopes of the Reformers of this Province.But the return of the votes polled on both sides has so materially changed the supposed state of affairs, that the party are now prepared to renew the struggle, like a giant refreshed with wine.As we have already stated, the official statement shows that of the 97,000 votes polled on the occasion, 45,000 were for the Liberal candidates, and consequently something over 3,000 additional votes would have given them a majority.More than that number of Liberal electors must, we are convinced, from the causes we have mentioned when formerly writing on the subject, have failed to appear at the polls to record their votes.We do not know that it would surprise us very much if our friends would have a walk over the course at the coming Dominion elections, which we have always foretold and continue to believe are not far off.Then, ve victis, woe to the corruptionists when we meet, them again at Philippi.We do not withdraw a word we have said about the Conservative leader's talents as a party manager and manipulator.On the contrary, we regard him with something like dread, and feel inclined to address him in the words of Coleridge\u2014 tI tear thee, ancient mariner, I fear thy bony hand, For thou art lank and lean and brown, As is the ribb'd sea sand.\u201d Our readers will observe that our high admiration of the Canadian Newcastle has beguiled us into an unwanted fit of rhyfîne\u2014at second hand.For truly Sir John is à smart man, the smartest man of our country, as our American friends would say.This, it may be urged by the Federal Premier's admirers, is not the sort of eulogy which ought to be applied to their great statesman ; no one, for instance, would think of calling Mr.Gladstone smart unless the speaker were an American.But our apology is that the word is exactly appropriate to the object of our panegyric, as all who appreciate him and his doings must needs confess.Still, we cannot afford to exhaust our vocabulary and space in chanting the praises of the hero of the Pacific Scandal.We feel besides that there is something due to his yoke-fellow in fame, Sir Hector Langevin, whose merits ought not fo be overlooked in connection with that memorable display of party strategy.We expect, however, that the $32,000 will repay him, in some degree, for any omission we are guilty of in the premises.But to go on with the main subject.The figures given above leave little doubt that the Liberal party are strong in the Province of Quebec, stronger perhaps than they have been for the last thirty years or so, and if the proper means were used a large addition to their ranks might unquestionably be secured at the next electoral contest.There is one fact which is not unworthy of consideration in connection with the condition of political parties in this Province.Like their brethren in France, the French-Canadians used to be proud of the name of Liberal, and during the first half of the present century always called themselves such.Papineau was pre-eminently a Liberal, Lafontaine was a Liberal, and so were most of their leading politicians.It is becoming, ia short, more and more apparent that the ban being now removed which condemned Liberalism to utter reprobation, and those who professed it to be viewed as enemies of the Church, the habitants are returning to their old love and will soon be again what they were under their old leaders.They have a traditional hatred to the name of Tory, and that of Comservative has no meaning in their ears.Consequently they have rejected both designations and lave christened themselves Bleus.This is not so unimportant a fact as it may seem to be at the first blush.As for the new-fangled name of Liberal-Con- servative, it represents to them, as to the rest of the world, a jumble of contradictory political creeds, and may mean anything or nothing or everything.It must have been the concoction of the Conservative chief\u2019s own pure brain, and is truly worthy of its ingenious author, though we think the title of the Black-White or Green-Blue party would have sounded as well and have quite as much significance.Whet is to be the outcome of all this?The result, we feel assured, will be the entire destruction of the Federal Premier\u2019s complex and mow almost impossible scheme of governing the country through his lower Canada supporters, as heretofore.His and Sir George Cartier\u2019s moutons are not what they once were, and neither Langevin nor Chapleau is fit to fill Cartier\u2019s shoes, however desirous they may be io fill Sir George's place.Sir John's Quebec followers are a good deal demoralized and unreliable, even now, and are cer- taia to become more so.They are not the inseperable phalanx they were in the good old days, standing shoulder to shoulder, and faithful to their chiefs, whose commands were the only law or principle they respected.If, therefore, the Quebec Liberals prevail at the forthcoming elections, as indications would lead us to conclude, Sir John Macdonald\u2019s policy will fall to pieces, and the structure on which his hopes are founded will dissolve, and disappear like Aladdin's magic palace or the house that Jack built.Should it be otherwise, and if he obtains a majority \u2014 a large majority\u2014in the Province, his expulsion from office is still only a question of time.The other larger Provinces will not long submit to the Quebec yoke; and after a stormy or sickly existence, as the case may be, the Macdonald Government will surely come to an end.In the one instance the downfall must take place as soon as Parliament meets; in the other, at no distant period.The only chance of the present Government rests on the National Policy.While the bubble is fast bursting everywhere else, the notion of Protection continues to retain its hold on the majority of the people of Quebec.It is an old delusion of theirs, nor are some of the Liberals wholly free from the infection, as seems likewise to be the case in Ontario.But the state of the polls in November last leads us to trust that we are mistaken on that head, or at least that among the Liberals of this Province the upholders of the Tilley tariff are few and far between.: It may not be amiss to inquire what course the Liberal party of the Dominion should pursue under the circumstances we have set forth.For ourselves we enterfain no doubf on that head.We are persuaded that beyond the usual and necessary organization for the Federal elections, the wisest thing they can do is to do little or nothing.They should leave the tom-fooleries of party intrigue, if only prudently watched and guarded against, to their opponents and their leader.If left to their own devices, the Conservatives cannot do harm to the Liberal cause.They will merely fall into their own pit-falls.Use them as one should a set of sharpers\u2014that is, do not play with them.We must here return to the habit of regarding Sir John Macdonald as the entire Government of which he is the head.We would, then, say to Mr.Blake and Mr.Joly, do not play with Sir John Macdonald at the game in which he is go successful a proficient.He resembles in this respect some rare individuals who always win at chess, no matter whom they play with.This gift seems to be an instinct for which there is no accounting, but all know it exists.It may be aided by practice, but the possessor must be born with it.Duelists have an axiom which might be followed in such cases: \u201c never fight an adversary with his favourite weapon.\u201d Party manipulation and management is Sir John Macdonald's favourite weapon at which, as the Liberals have found to their cost, he is to an extraordinary degree \u201ccunning of fence\u201d and far more than their match.It is his specialty ; his great feat known as the \u201cdouble shuffle\u201d was a marvel of party tactics, and we have much doubt if the Foolish Duke of Newcastle himself ever did anything to surpass it.On that occasion the Hon.George Brown, a man of great intellectual capacity and force, was completely taken in the toils,and came to grief accordingly.But to conclude this portion of our remarks, we are convinced that the Liberal party cannot do better than to follow Mr.Joly\u2019s sensible and patriotic counsel, namely, to pursue an honest policy, leaving party intrigues and subterfuges to their adversaries.Although the Liberal leader's advice is only a repetition of the ancient proverb that honesty is the best policy, it is not the less wise on that account, nor less likely to be attended with success.We are pleased to see that the Toronto Globe is warning the public of the danger that may accrue to the country if Sir John Macdonald should succeed in keeping himself and his party in power by means of his supporters in this Province, as he has done heretofore.One contemporary has gone to work with its usual vigour and ability, as might be expected.The Ministerial Mail, also as might be expected, attempts to answer the Globe's facts and arguments, denying the danger pointed out, in a meaningless strain of flippant bombast.MR, BLAKE AND HIS TRADUCERS.During the debate in the Commons, on Tuesday afternoon, Mr.Blake took occasion to expose the false and frivolous character of the personal accusations made against him by certain Ministerialists.Of course the revival of the slanders against Mr.Blake had no connection with the subject before the House, for if the leader of the Opposition was quite as wicked as his opponents claim, that would not explain away the \u20acharges preferred against the Minister of Railways by his new colleagtie, the President of the Council.All the charges trumped up against Mr.Blake sink into insignificance when compared with the sweeping accusations made by the member for Colchester against Sir Charles Tupper.As Mr.Huntington pointed out, the question upon which the House had a right to be informed was whether the President of the Council was ready to sustain or retract these statements, The Minister of Railways, though he complained because the Pictou Railway matter had been referred to, did not hesitate to repeat an old slander against Mr.Blake.But the \u201cyou're another\u201d dodge did not suffice to distract attention from the issue before the House.Mr.Blake met every charge with a prompt and emphatic denial, and his explanations were such as could not fail to satisfy any reasonable person.The first charge was that he had entered into a conspiracy with Hon.E.B.Wood, then Treasurer of Ontario, to defeat the Government of which Mr.Wood was a member.It was alleged time and again that no intimation was given of Mr.Wood's intention to withdraw from the Ministry until that gentleman rose in response to a request from Mr.Blake to \u201cspeak now.\u201d Mr.Blake's explanation of the circumstances are complete and satisfactory.Mr.Wood had made his resignation speech, and withdrawn from the Ministry several days before the \u201cspeak now\u201d rote was written, but he had intended to speak again before the debate closed.He accordingly expressed a wish that Mr.Blake should inform him as to when the discussion would probably end.When the debate was almost concluded Mr.Blake sent word to Mr.Wood that if he intended speaking he should do se at once.Mr.Wood made no speech after receiving Mr.Blake's note.He refrained from doing so at the request of Mr.Sandfield Macdonald, and the charge that his resignation was brought about by intrigue on Mr.Blake's part is wholly devoid of truth.This is the simple explanation of the \u201c speak now\u201d charge of which so much has been made.Mr.Blake has also been charged with intriguing to replace Mr.Me- Keller, and afterwards Mr.Mackenzie in the leadership of the Liberal party, both of which accusations are wholly without foundation.But even admitting that the whole of the accusations were true, what do they amount to?How many such acts as those charged against Mr.Blake would be considered equal to the scandals which have disgraced the Conservative party \u2014the latest so graphically described by the new Minister, Mr.McLelan ! Mr.Blake is accused of having induced a certain leading politician to resign his portfolio, the truth of which cannot be established.But has not Sir John Macdonald boasted of hisaccomplishments in the direction of capturing weak men in public life.That, however, which, according to Conservative logic, is the criminal in Mr.Blake, is creditable in Sir John.When Sir John A.Macdonald, by promises of promotion, induces a man to.forsake his political principles, his friends applaud, for that is evidence of shrewdness and party tact.But when Mr.Blake is falsely accused of seeking support from his opponents, he is denounced as corrupt and dishonest.Sir Charles Tupper prides himself upon having by various means seduced into supporting his policy men elected by the people of Nova Scotia to oppose him.Some were won by Cabinet positions, some by Senatorships and others still by Railway Commissionerships, and similar offices of emolument.Sir Charles boasts of all this, and his party followers point to it as evidence of wonderful genius and \u201cmagnetism.\u201d Mr.Blake bas also been charged with aspiring to \u201clead his party.Is that not a legitimate ambition?Did not Sir John Macdonald conspire to oust Sir Allan MacNab, and does not Sir Charles Tupper proudly claim that he has annihilated every prominent public man in Nova Scotia?Dut if Mr.Blake was guilty of such conduct as that confessed by Sir John Macdonald and Sir Charles Tupper, we freely admit that it would have been useless for him to aspire to the leadership of the Liberal party, though he could easily make his way to a front place among their opponents.OUR WEST INDIA TRADE.The present tariff, according to its advocates, was framed with the special view of promoting direct trade between Canada and the West Indies.The Ministerialists claim that their policy has in this respect been successful ; but an examination of the trade returns discloses the fact that such a claim is not well founded.The Conservatives have been careful to confine their comparisons to the years 1878, 1880 and 1881.It is well known that in the fiscal year ending in 1878 the trade of the Deminion with all countries was smaller than in the years immediately preceding or immediately following it.The statements of the Government organs are, therefore, deceptive and unfair.The increase in our trade with the West Indies in 1881 over 1878 hasbeen altogether in importations of raw sugars, and this is by no means surprising, when we consider the manner in which the country is being taxed to support these industries.Our exports to the West Indies have fallen off to a very great extent since 13878, or, in other words, the \u2018balance of trade\u201d against us in our dealings with those islands has greatly increased.The following is a comparative statement of exports from the Dominion to the British, Spanish, French and other West India Islands during the past six years :\u2014 Yrs.British.Spanish.French.Others.1876.$2,148,401 $1,146,420 $292,995 , 1877.2,194,649 1,284,575 160,212 149,62 1878.1,950,144 1,089,807 246,738 127,548 1879.193,544 1,237,698 219112 88,367 1880.1,906,058 1,359,588 £23,973 94,489 1881.1,787,813 1,167,612 111,175 80,769 Our imports from those countries have, of course, increased, but if it is a bad thing to have a balance of trade against us our dealings with the West India Islands have oertainly been most disastrous, and all this to change one branch of the commerce of the country from the hands of hundreds of importers to those of a few.We would like to have Sir Leonard\u2019s explanation of the course of this much coveted trade.SENATOR BELLEROSE'S GRIEVAN CE.Although the Conservatives profess to be the sincere friends of the Frenchspeaking population of the Dominion, even the ultra Blen Senator Bellerose finds cause to complain of injustice perpetrated upon his compatriots.Last year the Senator urged upon the Government the necessity of having the Senate represented in the Cabinet.He was then informed that the Quebec representatives in the House of Com- mons had insisted upon having the entire Cabinet representation from this Province made up of Commoners.Senator Bellerose says he is in a position to prove that that excuse is not well founded, and he demands, as a matter of justice and constitutional right, that the Ministry shall include among its members at least one French Senator.Me protests, therefore, against a continuance of the injustice, and says that, so far from the French members of the Commons approving the conduct of the Government, they think it would be but right to give the French-speaking element in the Senate a representative in the Government.Mr.Bellerose goes further, and declares that the members of the Commons have no right to force the Government to perpetrate an injustice or act in an unconstitutional manner.It is quite possible that Mr.Bellerose may have some personal ends to serve, for, although under the late Administration the French Senators were always represented in the Cabinet, he did his best to secure the overthrow of that Government, and to place in power a party of men who retuse to listen to his demands.The Government know Senator Bellerose, and they are not at all likely to pay much attention to his complaints.Tae CLoTure.\u2014It was hardly possible that Mr.Gladstone should avoid the necessity of resorting to some contrivance or other for putting a stop to unnecessary and wilful obstruction of the business of Parliament.It was as certain as the necessity of his doing so that any plan he suggested would be reprobated as an invasion of the rights of the Commous, and an attack on the Constitution.He chose to risk the odium of the latter charges, and in doing so gave an additional proof of his claim to the possession of one of the bigh- est qualitiesof statesmanship\u2014a courage which does not shrink from doing seasonably and temperately what an emergency calls for.He has met a grave emergency with a wisdom which entitles him to the highest commendation.It was simply intolerable that the legislation of the largest Empire in the world should be stayed by the tricks and antics of a few who chancedto be members of its popular Chamber; that in a crisis of the Mother country\u2019s existence, when its whole industrial system was under revision and reconstruction, a mere handful of men should be squabbling and wrangling, bar the Legisiature from the consideratior of the weighty matters it was im perative it should deal with ; that in a time pregnant with new ideas and impulses, the most important senatorial body in the whole world should be incapacitaed from doinganything whatsoever.We say it was intolerable, and that almost any remedy would haye met with general approbation.Mr.Gladstone has acted in this instance guardedly and wisely, and the restrictions he has imposed in the obstructive license of debate are such as will be generally approved._\u2014_\u2014\u2014-_->\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 Our latest English exchanges mostly deprecate tne position in which Great Britain has placed herself by her compact with France for the coutrol of the affairs of Egypt.Nearly every journal allows that a grave mistake has been committed, and one which it is now too late to attempt to correct.It would have heen preferable and right, they with one voice maintain, for the former Power to have taken the thing in hand singly.Taking France into co-partnership has aroused the suspicions aad jealousy ot other Powers, who would have been quite content to have allowed Great Britain to undertake the respoasibi- lity of doing all it was originally proposed to do\u2014protect the interests of her own subjects and maintain for the world the shortest route from the Wes: to the East.ALDERMAN STEPHENS AND THE WEST WARD.To the Editor of the MONTREAL HERALD.Sir,\u2014The volunteers know perfectly well that I have always been in favour oi obtairing for them a Drill-Shed.Four years ago the Council would have passed a scheme for building a Drill-Shed in the East and West-End.This was opposed by Colonel Stevenson.Last year Alderman Laurent perfected an admirable plan and had obtained the approval of the authorities.This was broken up by Colonel Stevenson.Colonel Stevenson, on the 13th inst., presented a paper tc me to sign, by which I was to acknowledge that I had not done my duty in the matter.If I did not sign the paper, I was to be opposed.Inasinuch as I donot intead to be bulldozed in this way I did not sign it.No one is more sen#ible of the importance of our volunteer force, and none more grateful for the valuable services they have rendered to the community than I.Tam not aware that Colonel Stevenson, previous to the election of Sir John Macdonald\u2014presented any document to him asking him to take advice from the gallant Colonel on all difficult occasions\u2014and acknowledging that he (8ir John) could not be trusted unless the Colonel carried documentary evidence ot his pledge to be true to his constituents.And until I see this new departure tried on some of the Canadian nobility, I must decline the honour of being carried round in Col.Stevenson\u2019s breast coat pocket.I am, yours truly, G.W.SrEPHENS.Montreal, February 16, 1882.A CONTRADICTION.\u2014-\u2014\u2014 To the Editor of the MONTREAL HERALD.Sir,\u2014 You will oblige the signers of it, and all lovers of truth in Outremont, by inserting the following, which speaks for itself, in your paper :\u2014- OUTREMONT, February 16, 1882.We, the undersigned, members ofthe Municipal Council of Outremont, in reference to the following article which appearedin the Witness of yesterday, viz.: ** Mr.D.J.Craig, Mayor of Outrement, writes to the effect that the idea of a new School House isa simple invention.The information was obtained from a member of the Council.\u201d Severally declare that * the information was not obtained from us.\u201d David J.Craig, Mayor;

Fr * CAPITAL NOTES.From our Special @orrespondent.Orrawa, February 16.EXPENSIVE TRAVELLING.The return of travelling expenses incurred by members of the Government and others from the 10th February, 1880, 10 16th December, 1880, was laid before the House yesterday.This return was asked for in the early days of last session, but was kept back until now.The travelling expenses of Sir John Macdonald and Lieut.-Col.Dennis, including Sir John\u2019s sage, $826.53, Hon.J.H.Pope's travelling expenses were $388.88 and Sir Charles Tupper\u2019s $1,946.66.The expenses incurred by Sir John Macdonald aud, his associates in London were $3,198.31.PETITIONS.The Ottawa and Arnprior Junction Railway Company have petitioned for an Act of Incorporation.They propose to construct a line of railway from Onslow, inthe County of Pontiac, to Arnprior, crossing the Ottawa River at the Chats Falls.They also ask for power to build a line to connect with the Kingston & Pembroke Railway.A petition presented to the House yesterday from Premier Norquay and others of Winnipeg, prays for amendments in the Act, chartering the Chartered Bank of London and North America, by changing the name to that of the Chartered Bank of London and Winnipeg; by reducing the capital stock to $1,000,000 and by changing the head-office from Montreal to Winnipeg.The petition of the Mutual Benefit Association of Sherbrooke, sets forth that the objects of the Association are to promote, by the establishment of reading- rooms, libraries, art collections and other similar means, the intellectual aud moral improvement of the population of Sherbrooke and to provide a safe place of deposit for small eavings.THE VICE-REGAL BALLA great deal of dissatisfaction and indignation exists among Civil Service employes and others respecting the invitations issued for the recent State Ball at Rideau Hall.Itis alleged that quite a number of people came to the capital expecting in vitations, and that these with many important official functionaries were overlooked.Colonel De Winton is blamed for a great deal of the trouble, and that official is privately denounced in no measured terms.Complaints respecting the matter have been made to leading members of Parliament, and representations may be privately made to His Excellency.The situation of one of the slighted parties has thus been described by one of the gallery cherubs :\u2014 THE WAIL OF THE CIVIL SERVANT.I am dreaming alone in my chamber, All the world is at Rideau to-night.My companions are smouldering embers And give but lugubrious light.Curls the smoke of my cigarette lonely, Allthe swells are away at the dance, I would be there myself if but only Gallant Aide-de-Camps gave me the cbance.It is rumoured that hundreds are slighted Of coy damsels and beautiful maids Whose brotisers have been se benighted, As not to leave cards with the aides.Our Court is the garden of rashion It were ill should its etiquette wane, \u2018And \u2019twere worse to fly offin a passion, So let\u2019& not be caught napping again.This forenoon a deputation, consisting of Messrs.Gault, Ryan, Fitzsimmons, Platt, Beatty and others, waited upon the Minister of Finance to urge the removal of the stamp duty.They thought that, with their large surplus, the Government could now afford to dispense with that vexatious tax.The Minister promised to consider their request, but could make no definite announcement as to the intentions of the Government, The Count De Sesmaisons, Consul General of France in Canada, arrived in the city to-day to pay his respects to the Premier.Mr.C.O.Perrault, Vice-Consul for France at Montreal, is also in the city.FISHERY WARDENSHIPS.It is said that the acting Minister of Marine and Fisheries has resolved to dispense with the services of Mr.John Mowat, Fishery Warden of the Restigouche District, against whom accusations were made some time ago.Mr.Mowat was charged with signing vouchers for workmen without their knowledge, but states that no vouchers were signed by him for money expended for the Goverument except at the request of the parties receiving such payments.There is also some difficulty about the appointment of his successor.Mr.Beauchesne, the member for Bonaventure, claims the appointment for one of his constituents, Mr.John A.Verge,of Cross Point.Some Montreal gentlemen, including the member for Cardwell, have recommended the ap- vointrent of Mr.John Robinsou, the Guardian of the Restizouche Fishing Club, à company of American gentlemen owning fishing privileges on that river.À compromise has it 1s said been made by which the district will be divided.Mr Verge being appointed Warden over the.Tidal Water Fisheries aad Mr.Robinson placed in charge of the Hatchery and upper part of the district.To this arrangement Mr.Beauchesne has consented.Gentlemen who have a knowledge of the fisheties of that district, however, state that the appointment of Mr.Robinsou would be very unwise, because that gentleman is at the present agent and housekeeper of the New York Club, and to appoint him to the wardeuship would be simply to band over to the coterie of Americans the most valuable Salmon River in the Dominion.It is to be hoped, therefore, that = the appointment of Mr.Robinson will be re considered.Mr Mowat\u2019s friends claim that he is one of the best officers in the Fisheries service, and that he should not be dismissed.Mr.Pierrepont, and his associates of the Northern Pacific Railway, have left for New York, apparently satisfied that they cannot expect the Government to break faith with the Canadian Pacific Company, and permit the extension of the South- Western Railway to the boundary-line.Unless the Northern Pacific are allowed to connect with the Manitoba railways, they have no further interest in building the South-Western line, and possibly that project may be abandoned.The Hon.Wm, McDougall, counsel for the American shareholders in the South-Western, says his clients own about 90 per cent.of the Company\u2019s stock, and that they have petitioned the Equity Court of Manitoba for an injunction to prevent Mr.Schultz and his friends from proceeding with the work.THE MONTREAL DRILL-SHED.At three oclock to day the deputation from Montreal waited upon Sir John Macdonald and Hon.Mr.Caron, Minister of Militia, in one of the Commons aute- rooms.Therz were presect, besides the Miuisters, the Count De Sesmaisons, Hon.Peter Mitchell, Messrs.M.H.Gault, M.P.Ryan, C.J.Coursol, Thos.White, E.Holton, A, Desjardins, J.A.Ouimet, J.G.Bergeron, Lieut.-Col.A.A.Stevenson, J.S, Hall, jr., Dr.F.W.Campbell, Ald.Mooney, Captain Campbell, Andrew Robertson, C.O.Perrault, H.Shorey, J.R.Dougall, and others.The deputation were introduced by Mr.Gault, M.P., and Lieut.-Colonel Stevenson briefly stated the object of the visit.He said the position of affairs was well-known to the Government, and the time was now favourable for some action to be taken towards providing tha Montreal Volunteers with a suitable Drill Shed.Out of 40,000 active militia in Canada 2,000 were in Montreal.He read the proposition which had been agreed upon at a public meeting and trusted that the Government would accept it and comply with the wishes of the Volunteers as soon as possible.Ald.Mooney endorsed the remarks of Colonel Stevenson, aud Mr.Gault said that a strong feeling existed in Montreal over the matter.Mr.Coursol made a neat speech, saying that he was still a Volunteer and that it was the earnest desire of the citizens of Montreal that the Volunteers should have a suitable Drill- Shed.Sir John did not recollect the particulars ot the matter in dispute between the cily and the Government, but he was anxious to do everything possible for tie comfort and encouragement of the militia force.(He did not like the word \u2018\u2018 Volunteer.\u201d) He would confer at once with the Minister of Militia, who was filled with warlike ardour.It the Government would only listen to Mr.Carson\u2019s representations their surplus would soon be swallowed up in appropriations for the militia force.Sir John said the Government were now in a position, thank Heaven, to do something for the militia force, and when the aup- plementary Estimates were being prepared the Government would endeavour to accept the propositions in reference to the Montreal Drill-Shed, either in whole or in part.After thanking the Premier for his promise, the deputation withdrew.Another grand ball was given at the Rideau Hall to-night, the attendance was very large.THE CENSUS, The Minister of Agriculture presented to the House to-day the available total returns of the census.The population of the Dominion is 4,324,810, the increase in the past 10 years being somewhat less that at first announced.The population, by Provinces, is as tollows :\u2014 Prince Edward Island.\u2026.\u2026.108,891 Nova SCOLIA .\u2026.\u2026.\u2026.s.cossanerencsc 0000 440,572 New

BAHAMA\" IWENTY LIVES LOST.Special to the MONTREAL HERALD.New York, February 16\u2014The British steamship \u201cGlenmoray,\u201d \u20acCapt.Dawson, which arrived from Calcutta yesterday, had on board 11 men and boys of the crew and two of the passengers belonging to the steamship \u201cBahama,\u201d of Quebec, which was lost, on Friday last,in lat.32.30 N.and long.72.15 W.Capt.Astwood, two second- class passengers and 17 members of the crew have probably been lost.The \u201cBahama\u201d left St.John, Porto Rico, on February 4th at 6 o'clock p.m.All went well until the evening of the 9th, when the barometer fell and a keavy storm burst on the steamer at miduight.At 2 o'clock next morning a squall, WITH THUNDER AND LIGHTNING, was encountered, and sail was shortened.A heavy cross-sex was running, and great quantities of water were shipped.At 3 a.m.the h2ad-sails were set, in order to bring the vessel around.A large sea rolled up from starboard, and at this time broke over the vessel, throwing her on her beam ends.The starboard bulwarks were swept away and the two life-boats on that side were carried off, the water poured down the engine rooms putting out the fires, and Captain Astwood found that the vessel was unmanageable.She did not seem able to keep above water much longer, so he informed the passengers that he was about to ABANDON THE © BAHAMA.\u201d At four o'clock the Captain ordered the two remaining boats left on the port side to be lowered.A white man who was a second cabin passenger, was seen returning to his room on the starboard side in order to save some properiy which he had left there, this man was washed overboard and drowned.The Captain with another second-elass passenger and fifteen members of the crew got into one boat, and the first and second officers with two cabin passengers and nine men manned the other which, although metallic and in two compartments, was but sixteen feet in length.The Captain gave his chief officer a compass and told him that Bermuda was .315 miles to the eastward.He also gave him the number of miles and the course to to steer for in order te reach Savannah.The captain was cool and collected as he gave his officers these directions.There was a quantity of bread and water in each of the boats.Three members of the crew had refused te risk their lives in the over crowded boats, they said that they would stay on board and run the chances of being picked up by some passing vessel, these were the second cook, the pantry-man and Paul Matron, who was regarded as being the best seaman in the crew.Thc two boats pushed off from the wreck and were tossed about like chips by the waves, which rose fully sixty feet in height.Scarcely five minutes after the occupants of the metallic boats saw the captain's beat SWAMPED BY A GREAT SEA a man, supposed to be Thomas George, a fireman, was seen struggling back to the wreck.He reached the shrouds but noone knows whether he ever got on board.Charles Smith, a seaman, also swam towards the wreck and was hoisted on board by the three men who had refused to give up the ship.Captain Astwood and the other occupants of the boat all perished when it was swamped.The other beat kept afloat although the water frequently poured over her gunwales, the men were kept busy in bailing her out, but they occasionally found time to handle the oars.Mr.Ross, the second mate, had once belonged toa life saving station, and his advice proved of great service in keeping the boat from swamping.The wreck was soon out of sight, and at 5 o'clock a barque was sighted but did not come within hailing distance.She was apparently headed toward the wreck, but it is highly probably that she rescued the men who bad remained on board.The officers and the two passengers believed by the time daylight came the 4 Bahama \u201d MUST HAVE GONE DOWN.Owing te the crowded condition of the boat it narrowly escaped, eing swamped several times.The salt water spoiled fresh and soaked the bread so that it was not fit to eat.A small sail was set but the oars were still used when the men were not bailing out the boat.At12.30 a full-rigged ship, bound north, was sighted, she seemed to be steering toward the boat, but at 3 o'clock the latter was at least three miles to leeward of the ship.The shipwrecked men waved their hats and shouted, and at 3.30 they saw the mainyards ot a ship backed, the second officer ofthe latter observed the boats and the vessel was hove to.There was a pull of two miles before the boat could reach the ship, but the men BENT TO THE OARS WITH A WILL and made their way in the teeth of the wind and the sea.They were almost ex- haustdd when the ship was reached aad she proved to be the © Glenmorag.\u201d The survivors received every kindness on board this vessel.The following are the names of THOBE WHQ PERISHED, some twenty in all: Capt.E.F.Aetwood of Bermuda, about 39 years of age and an experienced navigator, leaves a wife and children in

meeting in the lower room of the Parliament building at 11.30 to-day.Major-General Luard read a communication from Col.DeWinton, expressing regret that, owing to a press of business, His Excellency the Governor Genera! was unable to attend the meeting, as he had anticipated.General Luard said, that to obviate the necessity of reading the whole report of the Dominion Artillery Association, he would read from page 30, also from page 32, showing the credits awarded each battery for efficiency, Captain McRae, of No.2 Ontario Battery, was complimented on the efficiency of his Battery.The Ottawa Feld Battery was also mentioned as having made the highest score.General Luard also referred to the achievement of the Canadian Artillery Team at Shoeburyness and the beautiful trophy which His Excellency the Governor-General had given for competition had been carried home in triumph by them and now graced the table around which the Associatian sat.Lt.-Col.Oswald, M.G.A., then read his report of the # Kirst Canadian Artillery Team \u201d at Shoeburyness, of which team Lieut.-Col.Oswald himself was Commandant.The report contained, first a reference to the formation of the team and a brief account of the different contests entered into by the team in England \u2018with the result of each and the various disadvantages under which the Canadian team laboured.Lt.-Col.Oswald referred in his report to the many kindnesses and the hearty welcome and hospitality extended to hem while in England by the officers of the National Artillery Association, in whose care they were.Speaking of the Marquis of Londonderry, Lt.-Col.Oswald paid a high tribute of praise to His Excellence and his hospitality.The report said, \u201cOn the day before I left Seaham, His Lordship was good enoughfito present me with a life-size oil-painting of himself, which I now kave the pleasure of presenting to this Association, the members of which will, no doubt, fully appreciate the right, one worthy of the noble donor.\u201d The report also reterred in praise of the team from the Canadian Artillery.The want of proper ordnancee was a serious weak spot in our Dominion Artillery, and it would be vain for us to expect to do much good in competing with our brother warriors in England without practice with the weapon used by them.The financial statement was read which recommended should be divided between the members of the 1881 Team, which | Mich.would amount to $30 each.The report further contained an extract from the Volunteer Guzette of the 13:h ot August, 1881, which described the fine appearance of the Canada Teum, as well as commended their expert handling of ordnance.General Luard then thanked Licut.- Colonel Oswald in appropriate terms: General Stranga said that he found one great omission in this report, and trat wag an omission of augmention of Lieut.-Colonel Oswald himself, to whose efforts and personal sacrifice the success f the venture was largely due.He proposed that the cup which had been given for competition by our own Gover- nor-General and won and carried home to Canada by the prowess of our team be given to Lieut.-Col.Oswald, and, further, that the portrait of the Marquis of Londonderry, kindly given by Lieut.-Col.Oswald | to the Association, be placed in his (Lieut.- Col.Oswald\u2019s) keeping till such time as the Dominion Artillery Association could boast -of a suitable abiding place.Maj.-Gen.Strange also commented on the want of suitable guns, even for practice, which was a serious drawback to the progress of our Artillery Teams.The General also paid a touching tribute to the memory of the late Sir William Palliser, and recommended that a memorial of condolence with the family of the deceased be forwarded trom the Association.Gen.Luard read a .etter, just received, from Col.DeWinton, expressing the regret of His Exceliency the Governor-t#eneral at being unable to attend the meeting of the Association, and stating that His Excellency would leave to the disposal of the Council all tha prizes presented by him for competition.The annual report of the Association and that of Lieut.-Col.Oswald were unanimously received.Moved by Capt.MacRae, seconded by Lieutenant-Colonel Oswald, that the meeting recommend the Council to memoralize the National Artillery Ase sociation of Great Britain, that their system of scoring for the next meeting be changed to the system of points based on the parallelogram of error.Carried.The subject of Government support in sending another team to England to compete in the artillery matches next year was brought up.A proposition to ask the Government for farther assistance this year, was moved by General Luard and seconded by General Strange.Col.Irwin then asked that a number of changes in the selection of artillerymen to compose teams for sending to Shoeburyness be made.That the teams be composed of volunteers actually enrolled in the volunteer service.This would exclude the men of \u201cA\u201d and \u201cB\u201d Batteries and the Cadets.Considerable argument followed as to the proboble results of such changes, it was thought that the selection should be made indiscriminately, that is without regard to the men having served either in \u201cA\u201dor«B\u201d Battery, or having attended the sehool of gunnery, and as the teams in England had made ne objection to the team sent from Canada last year, but had expressed their entire satisfaction with them, it would be better not to make any changes in the selection of the men till they have taken the initiatory step.It was decided to conduct the shifting ordnance competition between « A\u201d and \u201cB\u201d Batteries on the same basis as last year.A suggestion was made that the Cadets of the Royal Military College be admitted to this competition, but as it would exclude them from other competitions it was not acted upon.It was decided to memorialise Government to offer better facilities to officers for obtaining first-class certificates, after which the meeting ad journed.LATEST SHIPPING NEW YORK, February 16.\u2014Arrived-\u2014 S8.Pollux from Amsterdam, Schiedam from.Rotterdam and

fifth quarter of the globc,\u201d as an Irish writer has called it, the mother country sends many things its people do not want, and the consequences too frequently are an overstocked market and a depressed trade.From this category we beg leave, however, to exclude two articles \u2014the two celebrated remedies of Professor Holloway.Throughout Australasia they are at a premium.The Pills and Ointment are considered the most profit able commodities that can be taken to the diggings, as their efficacy in the diseases common in the gold region is well known to every nugget-hunter, and they are therefore eagerly bought upat any price by those toilers afler the ** mammon of unrighteousness.\u201d For bilious fevers and all disorders of the liver and bowels which prevail on the auriferous soils of the interior, the Pills appear to be a positive, immediate and invariable cure.We have seen returned gold hunters from the *¢ diggings,\u201d and théir reports on this head are upiform, Nor is the testimony less conclusive in relation to the Ointment as a means of relieving rheumatism aod neuralgia, and healing the wounds, abrasions, contusions, &c., incident to a hard life in the wilderness.In short, every one in ¢ the bush\u201d looks upon Holloway\u2019s two preparations as a sufficient medicine chest for all the disorders of his outer and inner man.He knows, for he has wintered with them and summered with them beyond the settlements, that they are his surest reliance in sickness at all seasons and under all circumstances.Almost every digger has some anecdote to relate of the cures they have performed.Limbs saved from mortification, ulcers preserved from gangrene, contracted joints relaxed, liver disease arrested, dysentry and diarrhea cured\u2014these are their trophies.In fact they are among the good things of which we cannot have too much, and although the imports at present are so large as almost to be incredible, still the demand keeps in advance of the supply.Furnished with these remedies the digger and settler have little need of medical advice, for it seems beyond question that their curative effects cover the whole circle of diseases and a large portion of the chapter of accidents.Of what use is success to the digger if, when fortune is achieved, he die beside his hoard?and how many lives that were sacrificed in the early days of the gold discoveries might have been saved by these inestimable prepara- tione\u2014 The Digger.ON THIRTY DAYS' TRIAL.We will send Dr.Dye's Celebrated Elec tro- Voltaic Belts and otker Electric Appliances

Sheep met a rather firmer trade, but no advance on last week's rates can be quoted.127 useful States Cattle were sold yesterday at the Foreign Auimals Wharf, Yorkhill, which met a dull trade at from 70s @ 73s per ewt.Top Scotch, 80s per cwt, Secondary, 74s @ 76s;

E Field Bermuda, Heyghton, chief engineer, New York; Jas.Fulton, purser; Robert Foster, George Foster, Thomas George, Patrick, McCarthy, John Ryan, Charles Smith, William O\u2019Brien, Paul Wattaran, G Bikner, Felix Dubhe, all of Quebec ; Whi'eman, from Porto Rico ; a passeuger belonging to Ottawa, Canada, name unkuown; a passenger, coloured man, native of Porio Rico, name unknown; pas-enger Jobu Mullins, from Halifax; Charles and John Peterson, both of Swedea; James Ferrell, St.Johns, N.F.; total, 20.There wego only four passengers, two of whom were rescued.Wickman, the man from Porto Rico, ran Yelow to secure some clothing while his companions were leav- iug the sinking ship, He was undoubtedly washed overboard.Scarcely had tue Captain\u2019s boat rowed 20 yards from the sinking ship when a great wave overwhelmed it.The occupants of the other boat.heard one awful shriek above the howling gale and tten all was over.For a moment they saw the Captain's boat floating, capsized, and here and there a hand stretched, appealing for help.All were drowned but two sailors of hercularean build, who fought the sea with the strength of despair until they reached the steamer.One dragged himself upon deck and then with a wild glance in the direction of the secoad boat, sprang into the waves to swim towards it.He was not seen again.Two others of those in the Captain's boat also reached the steamer.He clung to the shrouds and his piteous appeal for help could be heard by his fast receding comrades above the fury of the storm.Those in the second boat owe their lives to the skill of the second officer, Robt.Koss.The boat was of iron on.y 13 fect in length and thirteen people crowded in her, so that the gunwales were scarcely above water.The sea ran mountains high.The survivors were in the boat 12 hours before being rescued.They were exhausted and famished.It is barely possible the men who remained on the Bahama were taken off by the passing barque.\u2019 Arrived\u2014Denmark, from London;

Do sing it to me.\u201d There was nothing better to be done than to sit down and execute the « Charge\u201d with spirit.Mrs.Fitz James listened abstractedly, obviously engaged in profound and troublous reflections, but murmuring from moment to moment: \u201c Oh, thats lovely.Isn't it lovely! Too sweet for anything.And he gave it to you?What a perfectly irresistible man he is ! \u201d She Had nothing to say of the heroic strite, nothing of the « knightly dead,\u201d nothing of the clarion wusic.When the song was ended she at once began to talk of something else.Presently she got Virginia to essay her own aria, a trivial bit of love-making nonsense.But allthis while it was as clear as possible that she was meditating with her whole feather-headed might.At last the attack came: she recommenced about Colonel Peyton: he was irresistible\u2014perfectly irresistible\u2014wasn t he, my dear?Virginia grew fretful under the repetition of the phrase, and finally responded with some asperity, \u201c You may find him so, Mrs.Fitz James.\u201d « So do other women,\u201d said Lotharinga, quickly.« I came across one of his conquests this morning.Sucha pretty girl! And such a nice girl !\u2014as I had supposed.It is really too bad to tell on her.You must keep it a solemn secret\u2014promise me now.You wouldn't think it cf our demure little Irish thing, would you?\u201d Virginia had not been able to help listening, nor could she help turning hot and red with anger.Her first impulse, no doubt, was to tell the scandal-monger that her whole story was a stupid misunderstanding or a wicked fabrication.But she was self-possessed enough, er, more likely, paralyzed enough, to remain speechless.It was the amazed Mrs.Dumont who demanded, \u201cDo you mean Miss Macmorran ?\u201d \u201cJust Miss Macmorran, and nobody else,\u201d affirmed Lotharinga, bearing on to her words significantly.«Oh, I don't know how much it amounts to,\u201d she added with the candour of a serpent.# I only suspect.But, my dears, I suspect\u2014volumes.\u201d Virginia still sat silent, a spot of crimson in either cheek, and her eyes settled sternly on the babbler's face.Lotharinga\u2019s glance dropped, and then wandered away to Mrs.Dumont, like a scared loon diving in one spot to come up in another.4 I met them in the Luxembourg,\u201d she hurried on, determined to finish her tale.«They bad a long and confidential talk.Then Colonel Peyton saw me and stole away.I went straight up to Miss Macmorran and pumped her.She is a sly little piece, with her nunnery face and downcast eyes and subdued voice.Oh, she was awfully adroit ; she dodged and evaded in wonderful style ; she was almost too much for me.But I learned something.I learned that there had been an intimacy in America.\u201d At last Virginia spoke.She had looked once or twice at her aunt with an expression which asked, \u201cAre you net going to stop her ?\u201d Now she broke out energetically: « Why do you go on with this, Mrs.Fitz James?I prefer not to hear any more about it.\u201d # Oh, well\u2014if it annoys you\u2014certainly,\u201d returned Lotharinga, mal ciously.\u201c Let us talk of something more genteel.\u201d But the converation dragged, and ere long she had her cab summoned and drove home, cheered by the belief, perhaps, that she had spoiled Colonel Peyton's market with Miss Beaufort.It is entertaining by- the-way, to think what would have been her stupefaction and wrath, could she have learned that the two supposed lovers whom she was trying to separate were husband and wife.The moment she had departed, Virginia turned to her aunt acd asked, \u201c How are we to behave to Miss Macmorran ?7 « How indeed ?\u201d answered the perplexed lady.\u201cI cau\u2019t believe ill of that modest, simple little thing.And yet, there is that old affair in Charleston, her interest in Mr, Underhill, you remember.She may be aided by rich men, and under obligations to them.Singers sometimes get on in that way, and of course get more or less entangled.It is a little suspicious\u2014have you noticed the fact, Virginia ?-\u2014\u2014that she doesn\u2019t come to see us of late\u2014not once since Colonel Peyton appeared.\u201d « I shall not look her up,\u201d said Virginia, after a long meditation.« But if she calls, I shall treat her well, until we learn more.\u201d i Yes, indeed! We know nothing as yet.Mrs.Fitz James is a flibbertigibbet.I wish she would leave Paris.\u201d « It makes my course all the easier,\u201d added Virginia, with a sigh.\u201c What course?Whatare you talking about ?\u201d « My course with regard to Mr.Peyton.\u201d Mrs.Dumont looked undecided, but made no remonstrance.It was clear that both ladics had believed somewhat of the gabble of Lotharinga, and that both were now little as poseible of the charming Colonel.(To be Continued.)

Synod ofthe Church of Scotland in Canada, &c.COMISG EVENTS.There is life in the good cause yet.The result of the late elections was at first, it must be confessed, calculated to have a depressing effect on the spirits and hopes of the Reformers of this Province.But the return of the votes polled on both sides has so materially changed the supposed state of affairs, that the party are now prepared to renew the struggle, like a giant refreshed with wine.As we have already stated, the official statement shows that of the 97,000 votes polled on the occasion, 45,000 were for the Liberal candidates, and consequently something over 3,000 additional votes would have given them a majority.More than that number of Liberal electors must, we are convinced, from the causes we have mentioned when formerly writing on the subject, have failed to appear at the polls to record their votes.We do not know that it would surprise us very much if our friends would have a walk over the course at the coming Dominion elections, which we have always foretold and continue to believe are not far off.Then, ve victis, woe to the corruptionists when we meet, them again at Philippi.We do not withdraw a word we have said about the Conservative leader's talents as a party manager and manipulator.On the contrary, we regard him with something like dread, and feel inclined to address him in the words of Coleridge\u2014 tI tear thee, ancient mariner, I fear thy bony hand, For thou art lank and lean and brown, As is the ribb'd sea sand.\u201d Our readers will observe that our high admiration of the Canadian Newcastle has beguiled us into an unwanted fit of rhyfîne\u2014at second hand.For truly Sir John is à smart man, the smartest man of our country, as our American friends would say.This, it may be urged by the Federal Premier's admirers, is not the sort of eulogy which ought to be applied to their great statesman ; no one, for instance, would think of calling Mr.Gladstone smart unless the speaker were an American.But our apology is that the word is exactly appropriate to the object of our panegyric, as all who appreciate him and his doings must needs confess.Still, we cannot afford to exhaust our vocabulary and space in chanting the praises of the hero of the Pacific Scandal.We feel besides that there is something due to his yoke-fellow in fame, Sir Hector Langevin, whose merits ought not fo be overlooked in connection with that memorable display of party strategy.We expect, however, that the $32,000 will repay him, in some degree, for any omission we are guilty of in the premises.But to go on with the main subject.The figures given above leave little doubt that the Liberal party are strong in the Province of Quebec, stronger perhaps than they have been for the last thirty years or so, and if the proper means were used a large addition to their ranks might unquestionably be secured at the next electoral contest.There is one fact which is not unworthy of consideration in connection with the condition of political parties in this Province.Like their brethren in France, the French-Canadians used to be proud of the name of Liberal, and during the first half of the present century always called themselves such.Papineau was pre-eminently a Liberal, Lafontaine was a Liberal, and so were most of their leading politicians.It is becoming, ia short, more and more apparent that the ban being now removed which condemned Liberalism to utter reprobation, and those who professed it to be viewed as enemies of the Church, the habitants are returning to their old love and will soon be again what they were under their old leaders.They have a traditional hatred to the name of Tory, and that of Comservative has no meaning in their ears.Consequently they have rejected both designations and lave christened themselves Bleus.This is not so unimportant a fact as it may seem to be at the first blush.As for the new-fangled name of Liberal-Con- servative, it represents to them, as to the rest of the world, a jumble of contradictory political creeds, and may mean anything or nothing or everything.It must have been the concoction of the Conservative chief\u2019s own pure brain, and is truly worthy of its ingenious author, though we think the title of the Black-White or Green-Blue party would have sounded as well and have quite as much significance.Whet is to be the outcome of all this?The result, we feel assured, will be the entire destruction of the Federal Premier\u2019s complex and mow almost impossible scheme of governing the country through his lower Canada supporters, as heretofore.His and Sir George Cartier\u2019s moutons are not what they once were, and neither Langevin nor Chapleau is fit to fill Cartier\u2019s shoes, however desirous they may be io fill Sir George's place.Sir John's Quebec followers are a good deal demoralized and unreliable, even now, and are cer- taia to become more so.They are not the inseperable phalanx they were in the good old days, standing shoulder to shoulder, and faithful to their chiefs, whose commands were the only law or principle they respected.If, therefore, the Quebec Liberals prevail at the forthcoming elections, as indications would lead us to conclude, Sir John Macdonald\u2019s policy will fall to pieces, and the structure on which his hopes are founded will dissolve, and disappear like Aladdin's magic palace or the house that Jack built.Should it be otherwise, and if he obtains a majority \u2014 a large majority\u2014in the Province, his expulsion from office is still only a question of time.The other larger Provinces will not long submit to the Quebec yoke; and after a stormy or sickly existence, as the case may be, the Macdonald Government will surely come to an end.In the one instance the downfall must take place as soon as Parliament meets; in the other, at no distant period.The only chance of the present Government rests on the National Policy.While the bubble is fast bursting everywhere else, the notion of Protection continues to retain its hold on the majority of the people of Quebec.It is an old delusion of theirs, nor are some of the Liberals wholly free from the infection, as seems likewise to be the case in Ontario.But the state of the polls in November last leads us to trust that we are mistaken on that head, or at least that among the Liberals of this Province the upholders of the Tilley tariff are few and far between.: It may not be amiss to inquire what course the Liberal party of the Dominion should pursue under the circumstances we have set forth.For ourselves we enterfain no doubf on that head.We are persuaded that beyond the usual and necessary organization for the Federal elections, the wisest thing they can do is to do little or nothing.They should leave the tom-fooleries of party intrigue, if only prudently watched and guarded against, to their opponents and their leader.If left to their own devices, the Conservatives cannot do harm to the Liberal cause.They will merely fall into their own pit-falls.Use them as one should a set of sharpers\u2014that is, do not play with them.We must here return to the habit of regarding Sir John Macdonald as the entire Government of which he is the head.We would, then, say to Mr.Blake and Mr.Joly, do not play with Sir John Macdonald at the game in which he is go successful a proficient.He resembles in this respect some rare individuals who always win at chess, no matter whom they play with.This gift seems to be an instinct for which there is no accounting, but all know it exists.It may be aided by practice, but the possessor must be born with it.Duelists have an axiom which might be followed in such cases: \u201c never fight an adversary with his favourite weapon.\u201d Party manipulation and management is Sir John Macdonald's favourite weapon at which, as the Liberals have found to their cost, he is to an extraordinary degree \u201ccunning of fence\u201d and far more than their match.It is his specialty ; his great feat known as the \u201cdouble shuffle\u201d was a marvel of party tactics, and we have much doubt if the Foolish Duke of Newcastle himself ever did anything to surpass it.On that occasion the Hon.George Brown, a man of great intellectual capacity and force, was completely taken in the toils,and came to grief accordingly.But to conclude this portion of our remarks, we are convinced that the Liberal party cannot do better than to follow Mr.Joly\u2019s sensible and patriotic counsel, namely, to pursue an honest policy, leaving party intrigues and subterfuges to their adversaries.Although the Liberal leader's advice is only a repetition of the ancient proverb that honesty is the best policy, it is not the less wise on that account, nor less likely to be attended with success.We are pleased to see that the Toronto Globe is warning the public of the danger that may accrue to the country if Sir John Macdonald should succeed in keeping himself and his party in power by means of his supporters in this Province, as he has done heretofore.One contemporary has gone to work with its usual vigour and ability, as might be expected.The Ministerial Mail, also as might be expected, attempts to answer the Globe's facts and arguments, denying the danger pointed out, in a meaningless strain of flippant bombast.MR, BLAKE AND HIS TRADUCERS.During the debate in the Commons, on Tuesday afternoon, Mr.Blake took occasion to expose the false and frivolous character of the personal accusations made against him by certain Ministerialists.Of course the revival of the slanders against Mr.Blake had no connection with the subject before the House, for if the leader of the Opposition was quite as wicked as his opponents claim, that would not explain away the \u20acharges preferred against the Minister of Railways by his new colleagtie, the President of the Council.All the charges trumped up against Mr.Blake sink into insignificance when compared with the sweeping accusations made by the member for Colchester against Sir Charles Tupper.As Mr.Huntington pointed out, the question upon which the House had a right to be informed was whether the President of the Council was ready to sustain or retract these statements, The Minister of Railways, though he complained because the Pictou Railway matter had been referred to, did not hesitate to repeat an old slander against Mr.Blake.But the \u201cyou're another\u201d dodge did not suffice to distract attention from the issue before the House.Mr.Blake met every charge with a prompt and emphatic denial, and his explanations were such as could not fail to satisfy any reasonable person.The first charge was that he had entered into a conspiracy with Hon.E.B.Wood, then Treasurer of Ontario, to defeat the Government of which Mr.Wood was a member.It was alleged time and again that no intimation was given of Mr.Wood's intention to withdraw from the Ministry until that gentleman rose in response to a request from Mr.Blake to \u201cspeak now.\u201d Mr.Blake's explanation of the circumstances are complete and satisfactory.Mr.Wood had made his resignation speech, and withdrawn from the Ministry several days before the \u201cspeak now\u201d rote was written, but he had intended to speak again before the debate closed.He accordingly expressed a wish that Mr.Blake should inform him as to when the discussion would probably end.When the debate was almost concluded Mr.Blake sent word to Mr.Wood that if he intended speaking he should do se at once.Mr.Wood made no speech after receiving Mr.Blake's note.He refrained from doing so at the request of Mr.Sandfield Macdonald, and the charge that his resignation was brought about by intrigue on Mr.Blake's part is wholly devoid of truth.This is the simple explanation of the \u201c speak now\u201d charge of which so much has been made.Mr.Blake has also been charged with intriguing to replace Mr.Me- Keller, and afterwards Mr.Mackenzie in the leadership of the Liberal party, both of which accusations are wholly without foundation.But even admitting that the whole of the accusations were true, what do they amount to?How many such acts as those charged against Mr.Blake would be considered equal to the scandals which have disgraced the Conservative party \u2014the latest so graphically described by the new Minister, Mr.McLelan ! Mr.Blake is accused of having induced a certain leading politician to resign his portfolio, the truth of which cannot be established.But has not Sir John Macdonald boasted of hisaccomplishments in the direction of capturing weak men in public life.That, however, which, according to Conservative logic, is the criminal in Mr.Blake, is creditable in Sir John.When Sir John A.Macdonald, by promises of promotion, induces a man to.forsake his political principles, his friends applaud, for that is evidence of shrewdness and party tact.But when Mr.Blake is falsely accused of seeking support from his opponents, he is denounced as corrupt and dishonest.Sir Charles Tupper prides himself upon having by various means seduced into supporting his policy men elected by the people of Nova Scotia to oppose him.Some were won by Cabinet positions, some by Senatorships and others still by Railway Commissionerships, and similar offices of emolument.Sir Charles boasts of all this, and his party followers point to it as evidence of wonderful genius and \u201cmagnetism.\u201d Mr.Blake bas also been charged with aspiring to \u201clead his party.Is that not a legitimate ambition?Did not Sir John Macdonald conspire to oust Sir Allan MacNab, and does not Sir Charles Tupper proudly claim that he has annihilated every prominent public man in Nova Scotia?Dut if Mr.Blake was guilty of such conduct as that confessed by Sir John Macdonald and Sir Charles Tupper, we freely admit that it would have been useless for him to aspire to the leadership of the Liberal party, though he could easily make his way to a front place among their opponents.OUR WEST INDIA TRADE.The present tariff, according to its advocates, was framed with the special view of promoting direct trade between Canada and the West Indies.The Ministerialists claim that their policy has in this respect been successful ; but an examination of the trade returns discloses the fact that such a claim is not well founded.The Conservatives have been careful to confine their comparisons to the years 1878, 1880 and 1881.It is well known that in the fiscal year ending in 1878 the trade of the Deminion with all countries was smaller than in the years immediately preceding or immediately following it.The statements of the Government organs are, therefore, deceptive and unfair.The increase in our trade with the West Indies in 1881 over 1878 hasbeen altogether in importations of raw sugars, and this is by no means surprising, when we consider the manner in which the country is being taxed to support these industries.Our exports to the West Indies have fallen off to a very great extent since 13878, or, in other words, the \u2018balance of trade\u201d against us in our dealings with those islands has greatly increased.The following is a comparative statement of exports from the Dominion to the British, Spanish, French and other West India Islands during the past six years :\u2014 Yrs.British.Spanish.French.Others.1876.$2,148,401 $1,146,420 $292,995 , 1877.2,194,649 1,284,575 160,212 149,62 1878.1,950,144 1,089,807 246,738 127,548 1879.193,544 1,237,698 219112 88,367 1880.1,906,058 1,359,588 £23,973 94,489 1881.1,787,813 1,167,612 111,175 80,769 Our imports from those countries have, of course, increased, but if it is a bad thing to have a balance of trade against us our dealings with the West India Islands have oertainly been most disastrous, and all this to change one branch of the commerce of the country from the hands of hundreds of importers to those of a few.We would like to have Sir Leonard\u2019s explanation of the course of this much coveted trade.SENATOR BELLEROSE'S GRIEVAN CE.Although the Conservatives profess to be the sincere friends of the Frenchspeaking population of the Dominion, even the ultra Blen Senator Bellerose finds cause to complain of injustice perpetrated upon his compatriots.Last year the Senator urged upon the Government the necessity of having the Senate represented in the Cabinet.He was then informed that the Quebec representatives in the House of Com- mons had insisted upon having the entire Cabinet representation from this Province made up of Commoners.Senator Bellerose says he is in a position to prove that that excuse is not well founded, and he demands, as a matter of justice and constitutional right, that the Ministry shall include among its members at least one French Senator.Me protests, therefore, against a continuance of the injustice, and says that, so far from the French members of the Commons approving the conduct of the Government, they think it would be but right to give the French-speaking element in the Senate a representative in the Government.Mr.Bellerose goes further, and declares that the members of the Commons have no right to force the Government to perpetrate an injustice or act in an unconstitutional manner.It is quite possible that Mr.Bellerose may have some personal ends to serve, for, although under the late Administration the French Senators were always represented in the Cabinet, he did his best to secure the overthrow of that Government, and to place in power a party of men who retuse to listen to his demands.The Government know Senator Bellerose, and they are not at all likely to pay much attention to his complaints.Tae CLoTure.\u2014It was hardly possible that Mr.Gladstone should avoid the necessity of resorting to some contrivance or other for putting a stop to unnecessary and wilful obstruction of the business of Parliament.It was as certain as the necessity of his doing so that any plan he suggested would be reprobated as an invasion of the rights of the Commous, and an attack on the Constitution.He chose to risk the odium of the latter charges, and in doing so gave an additional proof of his claim to the possession of one of the bigh- est qualitiesof statesmanship\u2014a courage which does not shrink from doing seasonably and temperately what an emergency calls for.He has met a grave emergency with a wisdom which entitles him to the highest commendation.It was simply intolerable that the legislation of the largest Empire in the world should be stayed by the tricks and antics of a few who chancedto be members of its popular Chamber; that in a crisis of the Mother country\u2019s existence, when its whole industrial system was under revision and reconstruction, a mere handful of men should be squabbling and wrangling, bar the Legisiature from the consideratior of the weighty matters it was im perative it should deal with ; that in a time pregnant with new ideas and impulses, the most important senatorial body in the whole world should be incapacitaed from doinganything whatsoever.We say it was intolerable, and that almost any remedy would haye met with general approbation.Mr.Gladstone has acted in this instance guardedly and wisely, and the restrictions he has imposed in the obstructive license of debate are such as will be generally approved._\u2014_\u2014\u2014-_->\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 Our latest English exchanges mostly deprecate tne position in which Great Britain has placed herself by her compact with France for the coutrol of the affairs of Egypt.Nearly every journal allows that a grave mistake has been committed, and one which it is now too late to attempt to correct.It would have heen preferable and right, they with one voice maintain, for the former Power to have taken the thing in hand singly.Taking France into co-partnership has aroused the suspicions aad jealousy ot other Powers, who would have been quite content to have allowed Great Britain to undertake the respoasibi- lity of doing all it was originally proposed to do\u2014protect the interests of her own subjects and maintain for the world the shortest route from the Wes: to the East.ALDERMAN STEPHENS AND THE WEST WARD.To the Editor of the MONTREAL HERALD.Sir,\u2014The volunteers know perfectly well that I have always been in favour oi obtairing for them a Drill-Shed.Four years ago the Council would have passed a scheme for building a Drill-Shed in the East and West-End.This was opposed by Colonel Stevenson.Last year Alderman Laurent perfected an admirable plan and had obtained the approval of the authorities.This was broken up by Colonel Stevenson.Colonel Stevenson, on the 13th inst., presented a paper tc me to sign, by which I was to acknowledge that I had not done my duty in the matter.If I did not sign the paper, I was to be opposed.Inasinuch as I donot intead to be bulldozed in this way I did not sign it.No one is more sen#ible of the importance of our volunteer force, and none more grateful for the valuable services they have rendered to the community than I.Tam not aware that Colonel Stevenson, previous to the election of Sir John Macdonald\u2014presented any document to him asking him to take advice from the gallant Colonel on all difficult occasions\u2014and acknowledging that he (8ir John) could not be trusted unless the Colonel carried documentary evidence ot his pledge to be true to his constituents.And until I see this new departure tried on some of the Canadian nobility, I must decline the honour of being carried round in Col.Stevenson\u2019s breast coat pocket.I am, yours truly, G.W.SrEPHENS.Montreal, February 16, 1882.A CONTRADICTION.\u2014-\u2014\u2014 To the Editor of the MONTREAL HERALD.Sir,\u2014 You will oblige the signers of it, and all lovers of truth in Outremont, by inserting the following, which speaks for itself, in your paper :\u2014- OUTREMONT, February 16, 1882.We, the undersigned, members ofthe Municipal Council of Outremont, in reference to the following article which appearedin the Witness of yesterday, viz.: ** Mr.D.J.Craig, Mayor of Outrement, writes to the effect that the idea of a new School House isa simple invention.The information was obtained from a member of the Council.\u201d Severally declare that * the information was not obtained from us.\u201d David J.Craig, Mayor;

Fr * CAPITAL NOTES.From our Special @orrespondent.Orrawa, February 16.EXPENSIVE TRAVELLING.The return of travelling expenses incurred by members of the Government and others from the 10th February, 1880, 10 16th December, 1880, was laid before the House yesterday.This return was asked for in the early days of last session, but was kept back until now.The travelling expenses of Sir John Macdonald and Lieut.-Col.Dennis, including Sir John\u2019s sage, $826.53, Hon.J.H.Pope's travelling expenses were $388.88 and Sir Charles Tupper\u2019s $1,946.66.The expenses incurred by Sir John Macdonald aud, his associates in London were $3,198.31.PETITIONS.The Ottawa and Arnprior Junction Railway Company have petitioned for an Act of Incorporation.They propose to construct a line of railway from Onslow, inthe County of Pontiac, to Arnprior, crossing the Ottawa River at the Chats Falls.They also ask for power to build a line to connect with the Kingston & Pembroke Railway.A petition presented to the House yesterday from Premier Norquay and others of Winnipeg, prays for amendments in the Act, chartering the Chartered Bank of London and North America, by changing the name to that of the Chartered Bank of London and Winnipeg; by reducing the capital stock to $1,000,000 and by changing the head-office from Montreal to Winnipeg.The petition of the Mutual Benefit Association of Sherbrooke, sets forth that the objects of the Association are to promote, by the establishment of reading- rooms, libraries, art collections and other similar means, the intellectual aud moral improvement of the population of Sherbrooke and to provide a safe place of deposit for small eavings.THE VICE-REGAL BALLA great deal of dissatisfaction and indignation exists among Civil Service employes and others respecting the invitations issued for the recent State Ball at Rideau Hall.Itis alleged that quite a number of people came to the capital expecting in vitations, and that these with many important official functionaries were overlooked.Colonel De Winton is blamed for a great deal of the trouble, and that official is privately denounced in no measured terms.Complaints respecting the matter have been made to leading members of Parliament, and representations may be privately made to His Excellency.The situation of one of the slighted parties has thus been described by one of the gallery cherubs :\u2014 THE WAIL OF THE CIVIL SERVANT.I am dreaming alone in my chamber, All the world is at Rideau to-night.My companions are smouldering embers And give but lugubrious light.Curls the smoke of my cigarette lonely, Allthe swells are away at the dance, I would be there myself if but only Gallant Aide-de-Camps gave me the cbance.It is rumoured that hundreds are slighted Of coy damsels and beautiful maids Whose brotisers have been se benighted, As not to leave cards with the aides.Our Court is the garden of rashion It were ill should its etiquette wane, \u2018And \u2019twere worse to fly offin a passion, So let\u2019& not be caught napping again.This forenoon a deputation, consisting of Messrs.Gault, Ryan, Fitzsimmons, Platt, Beatty and others, waited upon the Minister of Finance to urge the removal of the stamp duty.They thought that, with their large surplus, the Government could now afford to dispense with that vexatious tax.The Minister promised to consider their request, but could make no definite announcement as to the intentions of the Government, The Count De Sesmaisons, Consul General of France in Canada, arrived in the city to-day to pay his respects to the Premier.Mr.C.O.Perrault, Vice-Consul for France at Montreal, is also in the city.FISHERY WARDENSHIPS.It is said that the acting Minister of Marine and Fisheries has resolved to dispense with the services of Mr.John Mowat, Fishery Warden of the Restigouche District, against whom accusations were made some time ago.Mr.Mowat was charged with signing vouchers for workmen without their knowledge, but states that no vouchers were signed by him for money expended for the Goverument except at the request of the parties receiving such payments.There is also some difficulty about the appointment of his successor.Mr.Beauchesne, the member for Bonaventure, claims the appointment for one of his constituents, Mr.John A.Verge,of Cross Point.Some Montreal gentlemen, including the member for Cardwell, have recommended the ap- vointrent of Mr.John Robinsou, the Guardian of the Restizouche Fishing Club, à company of American gentlemen owning fishing privileges on that river.À compromise has it 1s said been made by which the district will be divided.Mr Verge being appointed Warden over the.Tidal Water Fisheries aad Mr.Robinson placed in charge of the Hatchery and upper part of the district.To this arrangement Mr.Beauchesne has consented.Gentlemen who have a knowledge of the fisheties of that district, however, state that the appointment of Mr.Robinsou would be very unwise, because that gentleman is at the present agent and housekeeper of the New York Club, and to appoint him to the wardeuship would be simply to band over to the coterie of Americans the most valuable Salmon River in the Dominion.It is to be hoped, therefore, that = the appointment of Mr.Robinson will be re considered.Mr Mowat\u2019s friends claim that he is one of the best officers in the Fisheries service, and that he should not be dismissed.Mr.Pierrepont, and his associates of the Northern Pacific Railway, have left for New York, apparently satisfied that they cannot expect the Government to break faith with the Canadian Pacific Company, and permit the extension of the South- Western Railway to the boundary-line.Unless the Northern Pacific are allowed to connect with the Manitoba railways, they have no further interest in building the South-Western line, and possibly that project may be abandoned.The Hon.Wm, McDougall, counsel for the American shareholders in the South-Western, says his clients own about 90 per cent.of the Company\u2019s stock, and that they have petitioned the Equity Court of Manitoba for an injunction to prevent Mr.Schultz and his friends from proceeding with the work.THE MONTREAL DRILL-SHED.At three oclock to day the deputation from Montreal waited upon Sir John Macdonald and Hon.Mr.Caron, Minister of Militia, in one of the Commons aute- rooms.Therz were presect, besides the Miuisters, the Count De Sesmaisons, Hon.Peter Mitchell, Messrs.M.H.Gault, M.P.Ryan, C.J.Coursol, Thos.White, E.Holton, A, Desjardins, J.A.Ouimet, J.G.Bergeron, Lieut.-Col.A.A.Stevenson, J.S, Hall, jr., Dr.F.W.Campbell, Ald.Mooney, Captain Campbell, Andrew Robertson, C.O.Perrault, H.Shorey, J.R.Dougall, and others.The deputation were introduced by Mr.Gault, M.P., and Lieut.-Colonel Stevenson briefly stated the object of the visit.He said the position of affairs was well-known to the Government, and the time was now favourable for some action to be taken towards providing tha Montreal Volunteers with a suitable Drill Shed.Out of 40,000 active militia in Canada 2,000 were in Montreal.He read the proposition which had been agreed upon at a public meeting and trusted that the Government would accept it and comply with the wishes of the Volunteers as soon as possible.Ald.Mooney endorsed the remarks of Colonel Stevenson, aud Mr.Gault said that a strong feeling existed in Montreal over the matter.Mr.Coursol made a neat speech, saying that he was still a Volunteer and that it was the earnest desire of the citizens of Montreal that the Volunteers should have a suitable Drill- Shed.Sir John did not recollect the particulars ot the matter in dispute between the cily and the Government, but he was anxious to do everything possible for tie comfort and encouragement of the militia force.(He did not like the word \u2018\u2018 Volunteer.\u201d) He would confer at once with the Minister of Militia, who was filled with warlike ardour.It the Government would only listen to Mr.Carson\u2019s representations their surplus would soon be swallowed up in appropriations for the militia force.Sir John said the Government were now in a position, thank Heaven, to do something for the militia force, and when the aup- plementary Estimates were being prepared the Government would endeavour to accept the propositions in reference to the Montreal Drill-Shed, either in whole or in part.After thanking the Premier for his promise, the deputation withdrew.Another grand ball was given at the Rideau Hall to-night, the attendance was very large.THE CENSUS, The Minister of Agriculture presented to the House to-day the available total returns of the census.The population of the Dominion is 4,324,810, the increase in the past 10 years being somewhat less that at first announced.The population, by Provinces, is as tollows :\u2014 Prince Edward Island.\u2026.\u2026.108,891 Nova SCOLIA .\u2026.\u2026.\u2026.s.cossanerencsc 0000 440,572 New
