Earl Spencer Knew of Thelr Author.London, March 2.\u2014Earl Spencer, speakipg at Wolverton, condemned the Times for swallowing the forged lettars The beck bone of all its charges against Parnell\u2014without the slightest attempt to verify them\u2014when an inquiry of anybody gonnected with Dublin Castle during the past 15 years would have elicitad the fact that Pigott wes utterly untrostworthy.The speaker related several instances in which Piggott had attempted to obtain money pay ments for pretended information while he (Ear! Spencer) was Lord Lieutenant of Ireland.If the Gladstonians were blamable for making an alliance with the Parnellites, said Earl Spencer, the Tories were equally open to criticiam for their compact with the Irish party in 1885-86, and for their present offer of local Government.He believed that posterity would regard Mr.Parnell a3 equal to the greatest reformer of this generation.OUR EUROPEAN GOSSIP.[Per Palsiel\u2019s Cable News Ce.) CHARITY BAZAAR AT PRINCE BISMARCK\u2019S, LoxpoN, March 2\u2014Prince Bismarck's palace at Berlin for once has been robbed of its official character.During the past three days the apacious rooms have been crowded with bric-a-brac that was offered for sale and a vast variety of trinkets of every description.The oeca- sion was the ladies\u2019 bazaar for the benefit of the poor.Princess Bismarck left her bed, where she had been confined with a serious cold, in order to attend one of the tables.Mra.Phelps, wife of the American Minister, had & table.The bazaar closed to-night ana was a great success, nettirg over five thousand dollars.The ZTagblait says: Prince Bismarck never meant to resign; he was simply bullying the Emperor and resorting to \u2018the old game he worked s0 successfully with William I and Frederick IIL, but he has found that the present Kaiser has a quantity of backbone his predecessora did not possess, and refuses to budge from his attitude on the labor question be lie consequences, so far as Bismarck is concerned, what they may.PROTEST FROM GERMAN BREWERS, The Weis beer brewers have entered a protast against the action of the New York Board of Health in condemning them because of adulteration in the heer by Salizyl.The brewers contend that the beer seat to America is brewed especially for export and contains no salizyl whatsosver.Unless the New York Health Board rescinds its present action in the matter the brewers propose appealing to the German Legation al Washington to bring the matter before the national authorities, demanding suitable correciions.A DISCOURTEOUS SUICIDE, The St.Petersburg press severely condemns Victor Moirier on the ground that he offended the rules of propriety in his attempted suicide, inasmuch as he si- lected the Villa Popowzeff as the place, and the hour, wheu a diplomatic dinner was in progress for the assault upon his own life.The offence in the eyes of the editorial writers was intensified by the fact that the dinner was attended by ladies.The explanation of the young man\u2019s rash act is that the English Countess, with whom he is enamored, sat at the side of a bated and partially successful rival at the table, and appeared 8o treely to lavish ber attentions upon him that Victor withdrew with some show of petulance to an adjoining apartment and shot bim- self.The report of the pistol startled the diners, and the youth was quickly discovered covered with blood.Lady Morier is en route to her son's bedside.TRAIN ROBBERS IN SICILY.As the inward bound train for Palermo was crossing a wild, desolate tract of country, the carriages were suddenly invaded by a troop of ferocious looking bandits, who baled up the passengers and robbed them of two thousand four pundred dollars in coin, and all their valuables.: THE PASSENGERS GET EVEN, Tre fact that the robbery was committed while the train was at full speed and also that no stoppage was made aftewards aroused the suspicions of the victims, who discovered that the terrible bandits were neither more nor less than the train bands who personated the robbers.Plucking up courage at this, the passengers arose, arrested the train men and recovered their money and jewsllery, while consigning the masqueraders to jail in Palermo.: DESTROYING THE NATIVES.American oyster men will nattrally be interested in Sir Robert Rawlinson\u2019s sewerage disposal scheme, by which it is proposed to Carry the London sewage to the cost of the southeastern part of Essex.If this ia achieved, the sewerage will kill tbe rich beds of English native oysters.In an interview, Mr.Ullman, a big oyster dealer, says he fears if the scheme is accepted the only people who will profit by it will be the dealers in the highest qualities of American oysters.Already tbe English market is being largely supplied from the United States, as from one to two million are imported every week from there.\u2014\u2014p\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014n 8500, OR

anything.It bas come to light since the arrest that Burchell was in this place one year ago, -Accompanied by his wife, the same woman that is with him now, and stopped at the Imperial Hotel,

left Enz- land, be said not long, but knew Mrs, Burchill\u2019s family well, Both Pelley and Burchill are decidedly English, Mrs.Burchill feels her position keenly, crying most of the time, at times reaching hysterics.Burchill wili be brought up to-morrow morning.TELEGRAMS FROM TORONTO.A Well-to-do Thief \u2014 Changes at St.James\u2014University Library: Toronto, March 2.\u2014A carpeater named

Princeton murder in the Globe yesterday.I went directly to Paris, here at 245 p.m.arriving at Paris about 5.30 p.m., and drove to Princeton, where I viewed the body this morning, \u2018 after it had been exhumed, and recognized it to be that of Fred.C.Benwell, \u2018who accompanied me from Englahd.1 know that he had trom $350 to $100 with him when he left me, .also a watch and chain.Taking everythinginto consideration, I feel certain that he has been foully murdered.He was a man of temperate habits.I knew him person ally six or seven months before we left England, but knew of his family sometime before.Mr.Polley ef: here yesterday for New York ; he has been with me here since Benwell left for London.He went to New York in search of Benwell, who had friends in New York.Could not say how much money Benwell had on arrival in New York.When Pelley returns from New York we will consider what we will do with the remains; most likely his friends in New York will be consulted.1 have made several trips to this country buying horses and shipping them there, which I intended to do on this occasion, Pelley coming with me on same errand.It was through no inducement from me that Benwell came to this country.I saw Detective Murray at Paris to-day and gave all the information I knew about the deceased.There seems to be a deep mystery enshrouding the death of poor Benwell in a foreign land, and no doubt the detectives will ferrett out the whole affair, as there is no doubt he bas been lured to his death, having fallen nto hands that thought he had a quantity of money on his person.The inland revenue receipts last month were $16,820, an increase over Febraary, 1890, of $815.The Dominion Line steamer Vancouver, which arrived this morning, made the fastest passage of the season.She went as far south as 42.20 to escape the ice, and met with small ice floes and saw two icebergs, one of large proportions, while there was heavy ice, densely packed, to the north.The icebergs wera met in latitude 42.30 longitude 50, and from thence to Halifax had fresh northerly wind and fog.But for the fog, and the steamer being obliged to go 200 miles ont of ber course to escape the ice, she would have arrived here last night, Regarding the coilision with the steamer Northcote, before reported, Capt.Lindall says they were outside the bar at Liverpool, waiting for the pilot boat to take their pilot ashore, when they observed the steamer then steering in the direction of across their bow.The Vancouver was backed 80 as to avoid a collision, but the steamer persisted in steering without changing her position, and Some portions of her gear above the deck came Jn contact with the Vancouvers anchor, and some stanchions aud portions of ber rails were probably carried away.The Vancouver sustained no damage whatever.TORONTO.E J.Walsh, of the Department of Railways and Canals, Ottawa, hae been in Toronto for the past two days makiag & general inspection of the city water Works and sewage systems for his own information.Mr.Walsh leaves in a fow = ÿ8forthe Britigh West Indies to as- for th charge of some important works T the Imperial Government, cided ta Ominion Government hag de- Ju dge Boreal against the decision of Rardin Srbridge in the arbitration re- enlarge pe Water front lots required for the coy 5.6 examining department of : SLY custom hy The Government to give the city lot.Collected at this port The total duty th ot February, 1890, was or the mon leaving : \u2014\u2014 THE MONTREAL HERALD AND $463,573.86.February, 1889, $418,273.03.Increase, $4,286.83.OTTAWA, The Government has got men at work blasting the rock in the Rideau canal to ascertain the expense of deepening the canal between here and Kingston.The Marine department has been advised that the channel between Prince Edward Island and the main land is blocked with ice.The mails are being carried across in ice boats, CHARLOTTETOWN, P.EI, The examination into the poisoning case was resumed this môrning at the residence of Mr.Sutherland.Mrs.Sutherland was attended by Messrs.Taylor and Johnson.The first part of her testimony i8 an account of the servants and inmates of the house during the past six months, The bottle of whiskey procured on December 24th wag brought home by the man servant.The one on tbe 2nd of January, in which arsenic was found by Mr.Sutherland and \u2018brought upstairs by him.He opened it in the room, took a glass himself and gave one to his mother.Regarding Mra.Weeks, she said: \u201cI was on geod terms with her at one time and went out visiting and driving with her, but have not spoken to her for a year.She has not been visiting here for a year.I left off the visiting, She at one time used to send me cakes of different kinds, also soap aud ale, The last she sent was chow-chow.I gent it back ; that was a year ago.I drank some of the soup; so did Miss Sutberland.Had diarrhea some time afterwards, and Miss Sutherland vomiting.Brown, our servant, used to go messages for Mrs.Weeks and did work about her house.never told him rot to She had sometime the use of horse and wagon.She also said that she had gone to a garden party and obtained a horse at a livery stable and ordered a boy to call for her, but he did not come.I believe Mrs.Weeks interfered to prevent the team coming.She used to drive with my busband and he has been visiting there.This may have caused little of the unpleasantness with Mrs.Weeks.Court adjourned until Monday.* Madre E.Hijo,\u201d Is unquestionably the highest grade brand of cigars in the market, a remarkably fine flavored cigar.Connoisseurs would do well to try this brand.S.Davis & Sons, Montreal.\u2014\u2014\u2014 CABLE BREVITIES, LONDON.The carpenters employed in nine of the shipyards on the Thames have struck for an advance of 6d per day in \u201ctheir wages.;

and then in another is that the bill has raised a great deal more discussion than was necessary.At best, the bill is merely a nominal corceasion to the demands of the Orange lodges.It proposes to incorporate them as a benevolent institution with insuring powers, but even this has been done by Sir John Macdonald in an apologetic way, and with a kind of appeal to the French to let him, for goodness sake, do something for the Orangemen.It is a mild kind of gop, in fact, for the Jesuit estates\u2019 allowance.The matter is spoken of by the Premier and his friends with more or less bated breath, and the Orange society is huddled out of sight by a back door lest its appearance might shock more respectable visitors.That is the way in which the Government has treated it.They were afraid to pass it and afraid not to pass it.Sir John gucceeded in inducing Sir Hector Langevin, Mr.Chapleau and Sir Adolphe to consent to the blll in its modified form, but he is not at all sura of securing the assent of the usual supporters of these three French leaders.The Irish Catholics of Parliamant see little objection to the bill as it now stunds, and think that its passage would probably be the last heard of the Orangemen in any public discussion.It is true Mr.Curran moved an amendment to prevent the Orange- men walking in Montreal, but that is a matter to be regulated by other authorities, and Mr.Curran\u2019s amendment may be looked upon as an individual effort to preserve gome consistency, Mr.Curran is not to be blamed for his amendment, for the ministers themselves frequently introduce in their bills superfluous and impossible provisions.But though the Irish Catholics may agree to the passage of the Orange bill, there is less confidence felt in the amenity of the French.A Frenchman is one of the clearest headed and most logical of the sons of Adam when left to himself, but on certain subjecis it is impossible to argue with a man whose mind's eye is fined on a constitueacy largely under the thumb of a zealous Young Catholic cure.Knowing this the Government arranged to smuggie the Orange bill throngh the House late on Friday night, having first allowed their French supporters to go home under the impression that the bill would not coma up before to-day.In this, owing to the rules of the House, they failed.Ths fact is that Sir John Macdonald has not the control of his follo wing that he has had in the past.The French Bleus deny him to his face, the Ontario contingent | compel him to listen to them.The member for Frontenac, once one of Sir Jobn\u2019s most earnest supporters, is in a chronic \u201c Don\u2019t talk to me, I'll do as I please \u201d state of mind and \u201c talks back with considerable freedom.The member for North Renfrew beneath an amiable and placid appearance possesses a power of vigorous kicking that has quite surprised many people.Mr.Dalton McCarthy, Colonel O\u2019Brien and that section are practically in open rebellion, and even in the franchise debate of last week six of Sir John's usual supporters of that measure voted for its repeal.This was touching Sir John very nearly, for even he could hardly cling to office were that measure repudiated by the House.So far as the Orange bill is concerned, it will probably pass this week, although some prominent Orangemen, outside the House, who are not altogether under Sir John's control, do not express much anxiety for such recognition, particularly in view of the fact that they are regarded as a troublesome lot of depenceats of whom the Government is ashamed, but who cannot be altogether repudiated, THE GAZETTE: The Sacretary of the Trea- £ury at Washington has just decided that a Canadian clergyman, called to the charge of a congregation at Lewisburg, Pa., cannot undertake to preach the gospel there,withouat bécoming liabie to the heavy fine provided for by the alien act.Canada does not need this kind of a law.And yet there are some Tory members of Parliament\u2014probably WKhey have rooms to let in the upper storey\u2014who think Canada does need such a law.The Gazette abould take \u201cSultan\u201d Taylor, of Gananoque in hand, BALLOT REFORM, : The necessity for a better kind of ballot for use at elections Las frequently been urged.The ballot papers are often spoilt, the mark is frequently put opposite the wrong candidate\u2019s name, and the whole plan is cumbrous and awkward.Several improvements have been invented, but the drawback in most of them has been the expensive character of the proposed boxes, and the complicated nature of their machinery.One improved system, however, has been invented by Mr.Chapleau, Clerk of the Crown in Chancery, tke officer who is more than any other experienced in the defects of the present ballot system.He proposes to dispense with the ballot paper, and substitute a marble.This is placed in an aperture in sight of the returning officer and scrutineers, and the voter then touches a knot opposite his candidate\u2019s name, which sends the marble into that candidate's compartment.A bell rings as the marble falls and no one knows how the elector has voted, but the voter himself knows that his vote has been cast.The box is extremely simple and inexpensive, bat the plin proposed seems to have the fatal objection of ensuring a fair election.There is no room for skulduggery before the \u2018counting takes place, and hardly any then unless the revising officer be a skilful prestidigitateur, and for this redson we fear that the Government will look askance at the invention.Fair elections are not what they are after.THE PIGEON SHOOTING BILL.Mr.Adam Brown\u2019s bill, one object of which is to stop pigeon shooting from traps, has passed its second reading by a vote of 91 to 82.The strength of the vote against it was probably due more to an extraneous consideration than to a desire to preserve this particular facility for gambling.It was rather a protest against the disposition to legislate on goody-goody lines.Mr.Charlton has a bill to enforce a better observance of the Lord\u2019s Day ; the Minister of Justice has one to amend the criminal law 85 as to enforce a greater degree of chastity and 80 on, and Mr.Brown's bill was felt by some to be in thie direction.There is a wide divergence of opinion concerning the observance of Sunday and men object to having the ideas of others on morals forced upon them by legislation.Hence the kick at Mr.Brown\u2019s bill.Others think that to destroy a bird\u2019s eys and unnecessary cruelty, though Colonel Tis- dale, who led the opposition against the bill, seems to think it is not.Pigeon shooting from traps was spoken of a3 a \u201csport.\u201d We hardly think it can be de- groands there may be for retaining it.The essential element of sport, as we an.derstand that word, is the opportunity the bird or beast should have of using its instinct, cunning, and it may be expsri- skill and patience.To partially destro y a bird\u2019s sight and to enclose it in a trap until its enemy is posted ready to shoot at it can hardly be called * sport.\u201d Nor is the theory that it serves to improve the shooting of young men, of any particular force.Clay pigeons, as the discs are called, are largely used in Eng- a pigeon ground has disgusted sportsmen, and they are equally useful for the purpose named.But, as we say, the feeling which was (at the bottom of the opposition to the bill was the natural dislike of people to be legislated intu good moral behaviour, according to other people\u2019s ideas, and we have little doubt that had the bill beea free from the companionship of others on the paper, the second reading would have been carried by a much larger majority.Added to other objections was the fact that an opinion is held that the subject is not one on which the time of Parliament should be expended, but rather one for local legislation.THE GAS BILL, Tre HERALD has taken the ground that Montreal wants another gas company and wants it badly.The service given by the existing company is so defective, the gas is so bad, and tbe company\u2019s utter disregard of the interests of the citizens is so marked, that patience has ceased to be a virtue ; and we believe an overwhelming majority of the citizens would welcome competition, provided it would break the present monopoly and give the citizens better and cheaper illumination.Bat they do not waut à rival gas company which asks for a long monopoly and demands powers which would practically make it the master instead of the servant of the Corporation and citizens\u2014that would be jumping out of the frying pan into the fire with a vergeance\u2014and that is precisely where the gas bill before the Legislature, if passed a8 introduced, would place the citizens of Montreal.We do not want any gas competition of that kind\u2014it would simply be exchanging a bad monopoly fora worse one, If the bill could be shorn of its objectionable features, (a8 Tae HERALD at one time hoped) opposition to its passage would be removed, or at least materially modified ; \u201cbut as the promoters seem to insist upon the bill, the whole bill and nothing but the bill, there does not seem to be any probability that it can be made even reasonably acceptable to the City Council and citizens of Montreal.The fact that the bill is opposed by the City Council, by Montreal's representatives, and by nearly all the local representatives resident in Montreal ; the fact that- it asks for a long monopoly and for powers in regard to opening up streets which would make it practically independent of the authority of the City Council ; and the additional fact that the corporators are unknown in Montreal, entirely justify the vigourous opposition maintain bis opposition till the bill is finally defeated or deprived of its objec: tionable features, The opposition to the bill from Mont real being so united and general, we do not think the representatives of outside constituencies, especially those who do not reside in Montreal, have any right to attempt to force the passage of the bill\u2014 practically it is none of their business; under the circumstances, we are a little surprised to find the Premier giving it his countenance, if not his active support.THE HUDSON'S BAY ROUTE.The discussion between Sir John Macdonald and the Western members on the subject of aid to the Hudson\u2019s Bay Railway has awakened the dormant interest of public men in this matter.It has ceased to be merely a Manitoba question, and has assumed national proportions.In the speech of the Lieut.-Governor at the opening of the Manitoba Legislature a paragraph was devoted to the subject, and progress in its promotion has somewhat awaited the action of the Manitoba Government and Legislature.They do not appear to have done anything, and their attitude is not understood by those members of Parliament and others who are interested in advancing the prosperity of the west.The doubts and perhaps hostility which at one time wers exhibited towards this plan of opening up the Northwest have largely disappeared, but the inaction of the Manitoba Government naturally hinders any efforts to secure substantial aid in the east.The speech from the Lieut.-Governor\u2019s throne would seem to indicate that the people of Manitoba appreciated the benefits likely to accrue from the establish ment of this route, but some doubts are thrown on this by the dilly-dallying of the Provincial Government.SOME people have been taking the Toronto Globe to task for saying of the Canadian flag that it is \u201cthe Union Jack with a blotch.\u201d Soit is; the British Col- umbians call it \u2018the Union Jack with the ringworm.\u201d The suggested substitution of à maple leaf or a beaver for the \u201cblotch\u201d is a good idea.Colonel Denni- which Hon.James MoShane has |.led and waged against it in the Legislative Assembly.It is to be expected he will unflinchingly | thea let him out of & trap to be shot at is fended on this plea, whatever other ence for the preservation of its life, Against these the man employs artifice, land and other places where the sight of sitiveness on the subject of \u201cThe Flag,\u201d drops into poetry, and says : It 18 but a small bit of bunting, It is only an old coloured rag, Yet thousands have died for its honour, And shed their best blood for the flag.If the subject is to bo discussed in verse we might reply : You will please to remember, however, It depends very much on who flys it ; O\u2019er an Englishman, sacred as ever, It sells the Canadian who tries it, For this grandest of national bunting « By the \u201cblotch\u201d is of power bereft ; } The Capadian who flys it seal-bunting Is apt to get wofully left, RICEMOND GUARDIAN (Conservative).\u2014 The English minority is just where they are in this Province because they have surrendered themselves in the past to thd slavish service of political parties, who have used minority interests for a shuttlecock to ba tossed hither and thither: a makewelght to make the scales turn towards the treasury benches; and then, when we have found ourselves dropped out of sight, we are told to \u2018keep quiet\u2014it will ruin Sir John,\u2019 or Si somebody else \u2018if you complain.\u2019 We are sick of this game, and shall do our very level best * to knock down the structure\u2019 that this political thimble-rigging has set up.To give point to the above it is only necessary to add that a large majority of the \u201cEnglish minority\u201d in this province, mora particularly in the Eastern Townships, have in the past steadily supported the Tory party and Tory \u201cthimble rigging.\u201d A revolution in that connection would be an improvement.-_\u2014 MORCTON TRANSCRIPT: Mr.W.Fawcett, a the Post in condemnation of the new and increased cattle rates on the I.C.R.He says by Sir Albert J.Smith years ago, and the meddle with what wiser men adjusted years ago.He concludes by suggesting that steps be immediately taken to reduce the rates and thus lessen the rapidly increasing burdens which the farmer has to bear.Such language from a Tory is rather significant, It is noticeable that while the Government squeezes the farmers and lumbermen in the matterof I.C.R.freight rates, 1t carries coal at a loss.The coal companies appear to have more political influence than the farmers.\u2014_ Tee Tory Bedford Times will piease | note that Tae MoNTREAL HEeraLp makes it & rule not to quarrel or bandy epithets with papers of the chimney-sweep class.WHAT OTHERS SAY.A SOLUTION FOR THE INDIAN PROBLEM, Complaint is made on the other side that the demand for Indians for Wild: West shows is so great that the reservations are being depopulated.Well, could, there be found a simpler way of solving the Indian problem ?Apart from that, when the western reservations are exhausted there are plenty of civilized Indians in Ontario and York State to supply all the demands, and they will be glad to work for half a dollar a day and rations.\u2014 Torento World, , A LESSON FOR MANUFACTURERS, The present period of agricultural depression ought to be suggestive to the be- peficiaries of protection.How long dothe manufacturers fancy they can thrive on the rnin of the farmers ?Do the mono- pulists imagine that they can prosper forever under a fiscal policy that beggars the great body of consumers ?The farmers have borne the burden of the tariff and been pauperized by it.Protection, a8 it works in this country, is a system of extortion, under which the farmers \"are compelled to sell in a free trade and buy in a protected market.The protected manufacturers may make up their mind to this, that they cannot vrogper if they drive the farmers to the wall, Their success, and the success of all business, depend upon the prosperity of the agricultural class,.\u2014 Waterloo Advertizer.son, of Toronto,

that is the proper way to act.Mr.Mercier seemed.to realize this fact up tô lately, and he was strong in the House and country.Oa the other hand, the Opposition was losing ground daily in the esteem of common sense people, precisely because it seemed to be courting the favor of the English.The Premler is now taking the same stand towards the minority.It is an unpardonable faux pas from every point of view.\u201d - Now hear the Ultrafontane, Duily Witness : \u201cMr, Mercier has reinstated the Jesuits, what almost no Roman Catholic country in the world would have done.He has introduced the Pope as an endorser of Canadian measures and as owner of ecclesiastical property, two things which have been looked on with horror by constitutionalists ever since the early middle ages.He has withdrawn the control of education from the hands of the Legislature, and handed it over to a body over which the public has no control whatever\u2014a body, as far as its Protestant minority is concerned, a& mere creature of the Government; as far as its large Roman Catholic majority is concerned, the crea- \u2018ture of the Chureh of Rome.It is to such a bedy, absolutely controlled by Rome, and whose Romish majority have been, to carry their ends, guiity of gross prevarication, that Mr.Mercier has de- Creed, with the weight of a largely Liberal legislative majority at its back, that all educational measures must be referred before they come before the Legislature.These are the sort of things we are asked to let alone until the person who is doing them shall feel free to change his face and call himseif a Liberal.\u201d Now I would ask any honest man how Mr.Mercier is going to please these * dear charmers \u201d who both * plagne him together\u201d?There is no give in either of them.They are both all take.Com- promige is impossible in dealing with such tanatics.But the very fact that these opposing, impractical irreconcilables assail Mr.Mercier from the heights and depths of their own infallibilities is a convincing proof of the correctness of his position.There are few statesmen but have had like experiences.Bismarck went through a similar ordeal, and if Mr.Mercier would heed advice from so modest a friend as \u201c Gatineau \u201d he will not fail to study the lesson gratuitously given to a stupid world by the Iron Chancellor.The trouble with these people is that they do not realize the situation or understand the full hearings of the questions they so hotly discuss.They are partizans, bound to down each other.One quotes the law as he has read it, the other quotes the same law as it was pounded into his noddie in English.Then they fight about their interpretations, as if the alone had possession of the eternal verities! If Mr.Mercier be not endowed with & strong intellect, and if he has not acquired a profound contempt for both of them he would be the most extraordinary man of the age.À man placed in a position of the high- ent civil responsibility, entrusted with government over, irreconcilable factions, must hold the balance evenly between them and let them fight ont their differ- \u2018ences.He must be carefal only that free nec ussion be not allowed to degenerats nto violence.In thus acting he must rely on the sober good-semse and politica Mie) of the \u2018mass of the people, nor vain Wwe, in a free country, thus rely in f acti © more we move in & sphere ° mor Suen as politics eminently are, import sense becomes\u201d ant strong common apply our re want it always tb limits, beyond wii to fix on the proper 701 ch any rule transcends oe orn Spirit to select the proper means © {our i 0 discoyer the true wants t the wranglers lay these words to t se of them believes he is abso- _TIZNt and the other hopalesaly.wrong.But belief 8 no test of truth.Let them examine the credentials of their beliefs.The one fact that these to prove them both wrong when they attempt to regulate government and direct political action.For it hag been well said that all religions ure equally true to the believers, eqvally usefal to statesmen, equally £2.98 to philosophers.Bat, Without accepting this dictum of a great cynic, we may accept the truth which it partially reveals.In matters of government none as more true than another, or there will be injustice.Uniformity is no longer even a dream, If Mr.Mercier, in his honest endeavors to convince the Protestants that he is anxious to prove to them his desire to act with generous consideration and with perfect justice, has gone too far to please those who are intolerant by nature, he has erred on the side of virtue\u2014he has erred with Plato.Already the keen native good sense of the people is coming to his rescue, and will rebuke and discomfit both of his accusers.Indeed it would be hard to say which is the most repugnant to modern ideas of statesmanship\u2014the narrow, fanatical puritanism of the Witness, or the rabid intolerance of La Verite.The former no more represents true Protestantiswa than the other dces sound Catholicism.In politics both are utterly impractical, but unfortunately their mischievousness ia of a very practical sort.This each of them unfortunately regards as a proof of its inherent righteousness.Tuey forget how very ignorant they are, and must be, and cannot help being.To measure the universe with s text of Scripture is not to display supreme competence and knowledge.To believe that the moon is made of ,reen cheese, because your nurse told you so} is not to attain absolute perfection and entitle you to dictate law to the world and teach statesmen the art of govern- meant.;

and such additional namber of years shall be taken as part of the term of service on which the superannuation allowance of such person shail be computed ; which increase in the pension shall be borne by the Consolidated Ravenue fund of the province ; and the order-in-council in any sucli case shall be laid bafore the Legislature.- In answer to Mr.Casgrain as to whether Monseigneur Guay had made any report to the Government as to the disposal of certain sums given him for different purposes it was stated that reports had already been laid before the House on this question.The House then passed the following notices of motion.Mr, Nantel\u2014Order of the House \u2014 Correspondence respecting the construction of an iron bridge at Rimouski.Mr.Beauchamp.\u2014Order of the House.7List of all the employees of the Mont real District Magistrates\u2019 Court.: Mr.Beauchamp.\u2014Order of the House.\u2014Correspondenca between the Government and Messrs.Firmin, Joseph Drouin and others.relating to the work to be done on the Little River St.Joachim.Mr.Casgrain.\u2014Order of the House.\u2014 Detailed statement of service d to Louis Lapointe, of St.Jean-Port-Joli, Eugene Lapointe, Phileas Lapointe, also of the same place.;

a young girl had been in the bouse of the accused as a servant The young woman becamo familiar with both mistress and master.The result of her familiarity with the master was that she gave birth to à child eight days ago.The little creature was thrown into a trunk, and remained there till discovered y a physician, who happened to be called in to attend the mother.It is stated that a young clerk was approached and offered a round sum of money if he would take the responsibility of thefaffair The offer was indignantly spurned.Bail was accepted on Saturday afternoon, and it is probable that the matter will be settled out of court, > ERSKINE CHURCH.Rev.L Hi.Jordan Resigns His Page torate.The people of Erskine Presbyterian Church were treated to 2 little surprise vesterday.At the close of the morning service the pastor, Rev.L.H, Jordan, informed the congragation that a letter wonld ke read at the evening service and gave them to understand that it would be of an unusual kind.Toe tisk of reading the letter was given to the sssistant pastor, Mr.W.M.Rochester,w ho conducted the evening service.The letter stated that it was a anpy of one sent to the moderator of the Presbytery of Montreal on Saturday, and asked that body to relieve him of his charge as pastor of Erskine Church.The letter went on to say that he had taken that deliberate step in view of the fact that be bad made a similar request about two years ago, and at that time his own desires had to give way on account of the opposition such a step met with at the hands of the congregation.His desire to return to the scene of his student days in Germany had to be put aside for the time being and the pastorate remained in his hands for a t!me longer ; but he now hoped the congregation wouid see fit to release him from his duties on May 1st.The letter gave the congregation to understand that it is the pastor\u2019s desire toreturn to his studies in Germany and the strong appeal which was made will not likely be refused.À meeting of Presbytery will be held on Tuesday, March 11th, when the resignation will be received and the congregation of Erskine Church will be called on to formally acknowledge its rezeipt.Rev.L.H.Jordan was indacted as pastor of Erskine Church on May 7th, 1885, and will have completed five years astorate at the time he asks to be reeved.Should he go to Germany to study, as he seems to have made up his mind to do, he will carry with him the good wishes of a large circle of friends for his success, and his congregation will lose a faithful and devoted

were fined $25 each.They were, however, allowed till this morning before action would be taken.Judge Baby then addressed the Graud Jurymen in English and French, and after \u2018explaining the nature of thir important duties, commented on the fact that owing to the length of the criminal calendar, their task would be long, ardusus and Lp or- tant ; the learned judge also remarked that the absence of capital cases from the list was a subject for congratulation in euch a thickly populated district as Montreal.Hie honor ascribed many of the indictments to the abuse of intoxicants.Drunkenness,

intelligence and firmness, soon, very soon indeed, a wholesome change would be brought about I do not say that it is possible to entirely extirpate drunkenness from among us.No,\u2014but what I do say is that then its nefarious effects would be seriously diminished, to the happiness aad prosperity of both family and state.A grave and great responsibility rests on those who in the proper sphere of their action are called on to apply the proper remedy to the growing evil, but who, however, fold their arms and look on quietly.The increase of forgeries, a species of crime not usually committed when under the baneful influence of intoxicants, was noted, eight cases being down for trial His Honor then concluded his address by recommending dis:retion and cara in their deliberations.A juror\u2019s application for exemption on the ground that he was a J.P.was taken en delibere, Judge Baby remarking that this used to be sufficient ground, but now J.P.\u2019s were so numerous that the matter was of some importance.The court was then adjourned till this morning, when the Maloney and Phillips case will be called.Messrs.Trenholme and St.Jean are the crown prosecutors.RECORDER'S

appointed corporation officials to ascertain (at a time unknown to the company) whether the statements made were correct, the result being that the service given proved to be in accordance with the by-law.Now, so far as this winter is concerned, when the roads were good, I have maintained the service same as in the summer, although not required by the by-law in winter to do so.In addition to the regular service on St.Denis street especially, & large number of extra sleighs have been put on every evening between five and seven o'clock during the rush hours.Of this, the gentlemen referred to

of the Embassy, who is spending her first winter in 8t.Petersburg, His hopeless passion preyed on his mind aud made bim despondent.Col.Herbert, a military attache, entered his room at the moment that

systems of those countries just at that time the Siberian horror was fresh in men's talk and in the papers; they said that they had left shortly after tbe reported outrages occurred, going direct from Siberia to Canada in December.Talking of the horror, these gentlemen remarked that though there might be some foundation for the report yet they had been grossly exaggerated with the intention to cast odium on the Russian Government and emanated from cireles hostile to Russia.When interrogated about Mrs.Sohiba, he became very diplomatic, in tact kept a solemn silence.The reporter then read several passages from despatches printed in America, but he declined to pronounce any opinion on the details.on being asked whether be thought it possible that Baron Kerf bad gent orders to apply corporal punishment to political prisoners, including a lady of birth like Mrs.So- biba, Boutoniew became very reticent, but said: \u201cIf a Russian officer were found guilty of such cruelty, I am sure he would be called to account most severely.\u201d On being shown the despatch ing the mass meeting in New York, he said: Really, you must excuse me.I can express no opinion on international questions in

Livingstone, \u201cThese mission societies certainly contrive to produce extraordinary men,\u201d wrote Stanley, in his last letter, speaking of Mr.A.M.Mackay, whom he linked with Livingstone and Moffat as pre-emin- ent above all other missionaries.And since the publication of the two columns of eulogy everybody has been asking in London who is this magni:cant Scotchman who has planted the seed of Christianity in that stoniest of grounds, Uganda, to such good effect as to establish a church which nas first overthrown and then converted an African tyrant.In order to obtain some information on this point, a represantative of the Pall Mall Gazette waited upon one of the secretaries of the Church Missionary Society, at the offices in Salisbury square, London, and asked him if he had much faith in the efficacy of Mwanga\u2019s conversion.Mr.Eugene Stock, the secretary in question, and editor of tha society\u2019s publications, said he badn\u2019t, but he had & very deep-rooted faith in Mwanga\u2019s desire to regain his throne, whether by conversion or murder of the missionaries, like poor Bishop Hannington, or whatever other means seemed most likely to succeed.\u201cLeaving the subject of Mwanga, the conversation turned on the notable missionary whose figure stands out so clearly amid all the turmoil of African revolution and counter-revolution.Mr.A.M.Mackay is not a clergyman, although most people call him reverand, but is the most enthusiastic of lay workers.He is 40 years of age and not 32, as, owing to youthful appearance and energy, Stanley surmises.He was born in Edinburgh, the son of a Presbyterian clergyman, whose name is familiar to school boys as the author of \u201c Mac- kay's Geographies.\u201d The future mis- sicnary was educated for the protes- sion of an engineer, but in Scotland such an education implies a university course and a training quite equal to that which the budding clergyman or barrister receives in England.He was a young man of marked ability, and was of a mechanical engineering works at Berlin.He was there in November, 1875, when Stanley\u2019s famous letter in the Daily Telegraph appeared describing his intercourse with Mtesa, the then King of Uganda, and challenging Christendom to send missionaries to that country.\u201c Mackay, 26 years of age, brimful of enthusiasm and nobility of purpose, at once wrote to the Church Missioa- ary Society\u2014which had received £10,000 for the purpose from two generous donors \u2014volunteering to go out.His offer was accepted, and he was despatched, with some others, into the heart of Africa.His photograph, taken at the time, represents a handsome and determined face, with well-defined features, a bigh forehead, from which waving hair is brushed back, resolute eyes and a firm mouth, a light moustache covering the upper lip.No trace of whisker or moustache was there then, but by this time he is probably \u2018bearded like a pard.\u2019 Neither Mr.Stock nor any other official of the society would know him if he entered the office to-morrow, for since he left London, 13 years ago, he has never once left Africa\u2014indeed, he has never even returned to the coast.\u201cHis memory of the coast cannot, as a matter of fact, be very agreeable, for he was laid low there by sickness on landing and had to allow his companions to proceed\u2014only to meet their fate by massacre.Às soon as he recovered he pushed on to Uganda, and there he has labored without intermission since that day.As a practical engineer there is nothing that he cannot make with his hands, and the Waganda regard him as endowed with a divine power of manufacture.It is an extraordinary point about him that there, in the heart of the Dark Continent, he keeps himself abreast with the London reviews, which some kind friend sends him, and in his letters shows as complete a knowledge of modern thought as any London editor.Were it not for such symptoms of the great intellectual power which he possesses, many readers of his letters would set him down as an artisan from the homely images be borrows from the vocabulary of toil to enforce his arguments as to the means whereby the African problem may bs solved.Such is the man who has 60 atly taken the place of the murdered Bishop, and who is doing more for Africa than the
