They had left me! I tbink my sons08 Wero leaving me, too, when I folt an arm about my waist and found Mistress Anno by my side guiding me to tho chest.XI sat down on it, tho certainty of my helplessness and tho sudden rellef of her prosence bringing tho tonrs to my oyes.Sho fanned moand gave me some restorative, chiding me the while for gotting out of my berth, \u201cI thought that you had gono and left me,\" I muttored.I was #3 weak as a ohild.She said choorily: \u2018Did you leavo us when we were in trouble?Of course you did not.There, take some moro of this.Aftor all, it is well you aro up, for ina short time we must move you to the other boat,\u2019 \u2018Tho other boat?\" \u2018Yes, wo are at Dort, you know.And wo aro going by the Waal, a branch of the Rhine, to Arnheim.But the boat is hore, close to this one, and with help I think you will bo able to walk to it.\u201d \u201cI am sure I shall if you will glve mo your arm,\u2019\u2019 I answered gratefully.\u2018But you will not think agaîn,' she ro- plied, \u2018\u2018that wo have desortod you?\u2019 \u201cNo,\u201d I sald.*'I will trust you always.\u201d I wondorod why a shadow crossod her faco at that.But I had no time to do more than wonder, for Master Bortram, coming down, brought our sitting to an end.She hustled about to wrap me up, and somehow, partly walking, partly car- riod, I was got on dook.There I sat down on a bale to recover mysclf and folt at once much the better for the fresh, keen air, the cloar sky and wintry sunshine whlch welcomed mo to a foreign land.On tho outer side of tho vossel strotohed a wide expanse of turbid water, five or six times as wido as the Thames at London, and foam flecked here and thore by tho up running tide.On the othor side was a wideand spacious quay, paved neatly with round stones and piled hero and there with morohandtso, but possessing, by virtue of tho lines of leafless olms which bor- dored it, a quaint air of rusticity in the midst of bustle.The sober bearing of tho sturdy landsmen, golng quietly about thelr business, accorded well with the substantial comfort of the rows of.tall, steep roofed houses I saw boyond tho quay and soemed only made more homoly by the oc- caslonal swagger and uncouth ory of some half barbarous scaman, wandorigg alm- lessiy about.Above the town \u201coso tho heavy squaro tower of a church, a notable landmark where all around, land and wa- tor, lay so low, whore the horizon scomod go far and tho sky so wide and breozy.\u201cSo you have mado up your mind to como with us,\u2019\u2019 said Mastor Bertram, returning to my slide.He had left mo to make some arrangements.\u2018\u2018You under: stand that if you woud profer to go homo I can secure your tondanco here by good, kindly people and provide for your passage back whon you focl strong enough to oroes.You undorstand that?And that the oholco is ontirely your own?So which will you do?\" 1 changod color and folt Idid.Ishrunk, as being well and strong I should not have shrunk, from losing sight of thoso three faocs which I had known for so short n time, yet which alone stood between myself and loneliness.\u2018I would rathor come with you,\" I stammercd.*' But I ghall bo a groat burden to you now, I fear.\" **It 18 not that,\" ho roplied, with hearty assurance in his voice.\u2018A weok\u2019a rest and quiot will restore you to atrongth, and then the burden will be on the other shoulder.It la for your own zako I give you the choice, because our future is for tho time uncertain.Very uncertain,\u2019 ho reponted, his brow clouding over, \"and to become our companion may expose you to fresh dangers.We aro refugees from Eng- sand.That you probably guess.Our plan was to go to France, whoro are many of our frienda, and whore wo could live safe- Jy until better times.You know how that plan was frustrated.Here tho Spaniards aro masters\u2014 Prince Philip's peoplo\u2014and if wo aro recognized wo shall bo arrcated and sent back to England.Stil) my wite and ! must make tho bost of it.The hue and cry will not follow us for some days, and there js ati) a dogree of Independonce in the oltics of Holland which may, since I havo friends here, protoct us for n timo.Now you know somothing of our position, my friend.You oan make your cholce with your eyes open, Kithor way we shall not forget you.\" \u201c1 will go on with you, If you plonse,\u2018* I anawored ab opus.\u201cI, tos, cannot go home.\u201d And as I sald this Mistress Bor- tram also camo up, and I took hor hand in mino\u2014which icoked, by the way, so strangely thin 1 scarcely recognized Ît-\u2014 and kissed it.\u201cI will como with you, madam, if you will lot mo,\u2019 I said.\u201cGond!\" she replied, her oyes sparkling.\u201c1 sald you would!

This is not sufficiently formal,\u2019 my Jady cried prettily.\u2018I have the honor to presont to you, young gentleman,\u2019 sho went on, laughing morrily and making a vory grand courtesy beforo me, \u201cKatherine, duchoss of Suffolk.\u2019\u2019 I made shift to get to my fcot and bowod respoctfully, but she forced me to sit down again, \u2018\u201cXKnough of that,\" she said lightly, \u2018\u2018until wo go back to England.Here and for the future we are Master Bortrant and his wifo.And this young lady, my distant kinswoman, Anne Brandon, must pass ns Mistress Anne.You wondor how wo came to bo straying In the stroets alone and unattendod when you found us?\u201d I did wonder, for tho name of the gny and brilliant Duchess of Suffolk was swell known oven to me, a country lad.Hor former husband, Charles Brandon, duke of Suffolk, had been not only tho one trusted and constant friend of King Henry VIII, but the king's brother-in-law, his first wife having beon Mary, princess of England and queen dowagor of France.Lato in his splondid and prosporous carcer the duke had married Katherine, tho heiress of Lord Willoughby de Eresby, and she jt was who stood before me, still young and handsome.After her husband's death sho had made England ring with her name, first, by a love match with a Lin- colnshire squire, and, secondly, by her fearless and outspokon defense of tho reform- ere.I did wondor indeod how she had como to be wandering in tho strects at daybreak, an objcot of a chance passer's chivalry and pity.\u2018\u2018It 18 simple onough,\u201d she said dryly.\u201cI an rioh, I am a Protestant, and 1 have an cnomy.Whon I do not like à porson, I spoak out.Do I not, Richards\" **You doindeed, my dear,\" he nnswored, smiling.** And onco I spoke out to Bishop Gard: fnor.What! Do you know Stephon Gard: inex?\u201d For I had started at the name, after whicli I could scarcely have concealed my knowlodgo if Iwould, So I answered simply, Yor; 1 have soon him.\u201d I was thinking how wonderful this was.These people had boon utter strangers to me until a day or two before, yot now we were all looking out together \u2018from tho dock of a Dutoh boat on the low Dutch landscape, united by one tio, tho enmity of the same man.\u2018\u201cHe 18 n man to bo dreaded, '\u2019 tho durh- es8 continued, her eyes resting on her baby, which lay asleop on my bundle of rugs, and I guessed what foar it was bad tamed hor pride to flight.\u2018His power in England la absolute, Wo learned that it was his purpose to arrest me and dotermined to leave England.But our very household was full of spies, and though we chose » time when Clarence, our steward, whom we had long suspectod of being Gardiner\u2019s chicf tool, was away, Philip, his deputy, gained a clew to our dosign and watched us.Wo gave him the slip with difficulty.leaving our luggage, but ho dogged and overtook us, and the rest you know.\u201d I bowed.As I gazed at her my ndmira- tion, I know, ehono in my eyes.Sho lookcd, as she stood on the deck, an exile and fugitive, ro gay, so bright, ro indom- {table, that In hersolf s'e wan nt once a warranty and an omon of better times, Tho broozo had helghtoned her color and loosened here and there a tress of hor auburn hair.No wonder Mastor Bertie looked proudly on his duchess.Suddenly a thing I had clean forgotten flashed into my mind, and I thrust my hand Into my pocket.Tho nation was go abrupt that It attracted thoir attention, and when I pulled out a packot\u2014two pack- eta\u2014thoro wero three pairs of eyes upon me.Tho seal dangled from ono missive What have you there?\u2019\u2019 tho duchess asked briskly, for sho was a tvoman and curious, \u201cIo you carry the deeds of your property about with you?\" **No,'\" I said, nos unwilling to mako a small sensation.\u201cThis touches your grace.\" **Hush!'' sho oriod, raising ono imporl- ous finger.\u2018\u2018Transgrosaing airondy?From this timo forth I am Mistross Bertram, romomber.But come,\u2019 sho went on, ey- ina tho paokeb with the soal Inoulsitlvely, * ed, with an offort, \u2018but 1t may also contain \u201chow does it touch mo?!\u2019 | I put it silently into her hands, and she oponod it und read a fow lines, her husband peeping over her shoulder.As she read her brow darkened, her eyes grew hard.Master Bertle's faco changod with hers, and they both pceped suddonly nt mo over the edge of the parchmont, sus- picton and hostility In their glnncos, \u2018How camo you by this, young sir?\u2019 he said slowly, alter a long pause.\u201cHave wo escaped Peter to fall nto the hands of Paul!\" \u2018No, not!\u201d I cried hurriedly.I saw that I had made a greater sensation than I had bargained for.I hustoned.to tell them how I hand mot with Gardiner\u2019s servant at Stony Stratford, and how I had become pousessed of his credentials.They laughed, of course.Indeed thoy laughed so loudly that tho placid Dutchmen, standing aft with thoir hands in their breeches pockets, stared open mouthed at us, and tho kindred cattle on the bank looked mildly up from tho knee dvep grass.\u2018And whut was tho other packet?\u2019 the duchess asked presently, \u201cIs that it in your handy\u201d \u201cYes,\u201d I answered, holding it up with somo raluctance, \u2018It seems to be a lotter addressed to Mistress Clarence.\u2019 *\u2018Clarence!\u201d\u2019 sho crled.*\u2018Clarenco!\u201d rosting the hand she was extending.\u201cWhat! Hore is our friend again, thon.What is in it?You have opened it?\u2019 \u201cNo.\u201d \u2018You havo not?Then quick, open it!\u201d sho exclaimed.*'This, too, touches us, I will bet a penny.Let us see at once what it contains.Clarence indeed! Perhaps we may have him on the hip yot, the arch traîtor!\u201d But I hold the pockotbook back, though my chookg reddened, and I knew I must seem foolish.They made certain that this lettor was a communication to some spy, probably to Clarence himself under cover of a fominine address.Porhaps it was, but it bore a woman's name, and it was sealed, and, foolish though I night be, I would not betray the woman's scoret.**No, madam,\u2019 I eaid, confused, awkward, stummering, yet withholding 1t with a sccrot obstinacy.\u2018\u2018Pardon me if 1 do not obey you\u2014if 1 do not lot this be opened.It may be what you eay,\u201d\u2019 I add- an honest socrot, and that a woman's.\" **What do you say?\" cried the duchess.\u2018Hero aro scruples!\u201d At that her husband smiled, and I locked In despair from him to Mistress Anne.Would she sympathize with my feelings?I found that she had turned her back on us nnd was gazing over the side.\u201cDo you really mean,\u201d continued the duchess, tapping hor foot gharply on the deck, \u201cthat you are not going to open that, you foolish boy?! \u201cI do, with your grace's leave,\u201d I answered.\u2018Or without my grace's leave! Tha is what you moan,\u2019 she rotorted pettishly, a red spot in cach cheek.\u201cWhen people will not do what I ask, it is always grace! gracol grace! But I know them now.\u201d 1 dared nut smile, and I would not look up, lost my heart should fail me and I should give hor her way.\u201cYou foolish boy!\" she again ssld and sniffed.Then with a toss of hor head she wont away, ber husband following her obediontly.1 fenrod that sho was grievously offended, and I got up rostlessly and went across the deck to the rail on which Mistress Anne was leaning, meaning to say something which should gain for me her syin- p-thy, perhaps her advice.But the words dlod on my lips, for as I approached she turned her fuco abruptly toward me, and it was so white, so haggard, so drawn, that I uttered a cry of alarm.\u201c*You are ill\" I oxclaimed.\u2018Lot me call the duchoss!\u201d She gripped my sleeve almost flercoly.\u201cHushl\u2019 she muttered.\u2018Do nothing of tho kind.I am not well It is the water.But it will pass off, 1f you do not notico it.I bato to be notloed,\u2019\u2019 she added, with an angry shrug.I was full of pity for hor and reproached myself sorely.\u2018\u2018What a selfish brute I have been!\u201d I sald.\u2018You have watched by me night after night and nursed me day after day, and I have scarcely thanked fou.And now you are ill yourself.It 18 my fault!\u201d &Eho looked at me, à wan smile on her face.\u2018A little, perhaps,\u2019 sho answered faintly.\u201cBut {tis chiefly the water.I shall be betterpresently.About that det- ter.Did you not come to speak to me about it?\u201d \u2018* Never mind 1t now,\u2019\u2019 I sald anxiously.\u2018Will you not lle down on the rugs awhile?Let me give yon my place,* I plended.\u2018No, no!'\u2019 ghe cried impatiently, and seeing I vexed her by my importunity I desisted.\u2018*The letter,\u2019 sho wenton.* You Will opon 1t by and by?*'No,\" I sald slowly, considering, to toll the truth, the strength of my resolution, SI think I shall not.\u201d \u2018You wil), you willl\u2019 she repeated, with a kind of scorn.*'The duchecs will ask you again, and you will give it to her.Ot course you wil\" Her tono was.strangely querulous, and her oyes continually flashed keen, biting glances at me.But I thought only that who was {ll and excited, and I fancied it was best te humor her, \u2018Well, porhape I shall,\u2019 I sald soothingly.\u2018\u2018Possibly.It is hard to refuso hor anything, and yet 1 hope I may not.The girl\u2014it may be » girl'a scoret.\u2018* \u201cWoll?\u201d she asked, Interrupting me abruptly, her voice harsh and unmusical.\u201cWhat of hert\u2019\u2019 She Iaid her hand on her bosom ns though to still some secrot pain.I looked at her, anxious and wondering, but she had again averted her face.\u2018What of hor?*\u2019 sho repeated.\u201cOnly that\u2014I would not willingly hurt hort\" I blurted out.She did not answer.She stood a mo- mont; then, to my surprise, she turned away without a word, and merely commanding mo hy a gestum ofthe hand not to follow walked slowly away.I watched her cross tho deck and pass through the doorway into tho deckhouso.Shedid not once turn her face, and my only fear was that sho was fl), moro seriously ill, perhaps, than sho had acknowledged.CHAPTER VIIL As tho day went on, therefore, I looked engorly for Mistress Anno\u2019s return, but she appeared no more, though I maintained a close watch on the cabin door.All the afternoon, too, the duchess kept away from mo, and I fonred that 1 had seriously offended hor, so that it wos with no very plonsant antleipations that, going Into that part of tho deckhouse which served us for à common room, to ace if the ovening monl was sct, I found only the duchess and Muster Bortio proparcd to sit down to it.I aupposo that somothing of my focling was exprossod in my face, for while I was yot half way botwcen door nnd table my lady gave way to a peal of merriment.**Come, sit down and do not be afraid!\u201d sho cried pleasantly, her gray oyoa still full of Jaughtor.\u201cI vow the lad thinks I whall oat him, Nay, when all is sald and done, I like you tho better, Sir Knight Errant, for your soruples.I seo that you are determined to act up to your name.But that reminds me,\u2019 sho added In a more serious veln.**Wo havo boon frank with you.You must bo equally frank with us, What are wo to call you, pray?\u2019 I looked dowrr at my plate and felt my faoo grow scarlet, \u2018The wound which the discovery of my father's troachory had donlt mo had bogun to heal.In the action, tho movement, tho advonturo of the last fortnight, I had well nigh lost sight of tho blot on my esoutohoon, of tho shamo which had driven me from home.But tho question, \u201cWhat are we to onll you?'' revived tho smart, and revived it with an addod pang.It bad beon very well, in theory, to proudly dincard my old name, It was painful In oractice to bo unable to answer the duchoss: \u2018I am a Cludde of Coton, nephow to Sir Anthony, formerly esquire of the body to King Honey, 1 am no unworthy follower and associate oven for you,\u201d and to have instead to reply: 1 have no name.I am nobody.1 have all to muko and win.\u2019 Yet this was my iil fortune.Iler woman's vye saw my trouble ns 1 hesitated, confused and doubting, what I should reply.* Come,\" she said good mm- turedly, trying to reassure me.\u2018You are of gentlo birth.Of that wo feel sure.\" I shook my head.\u2018*Nay, I am of no birth,

transforming her open features, \u201cI will answer fur that, Master Carey.Doods are bettor than names, and as for being a new man, what with Pagets and Cavendishes and Spencers, we have naught but

hand.And so under the oil lamp in the neat cabin of that old Dutch boat, somewhero on the Waal between Gorcum and Nimuegen, wo plighted our troth te one another, and in a sense I became one of them.I went to my berth cheered and encouraged by thoir kindness, But the interview, satisfactory as it was, had set up no little excitement in my brain, and it was lopg before I slept.When I did, I had a strango dream.I dreamed that I was sitting fn the hall at Coton, and that Potro: nilla was standing on the daialooking fix- tdly at me with gentle, sorrowful eyes.I wanted to go to her, but I could not move.Every dreamer knows tho sonsation.1 tried to call to her, to ask her what was the matter, and why she so looked at mo, But I could utter no sound, And still ghe | ooftinued to fix me with the same, gad, reproachful eyes, in which 1 read a warning, yot could not ask its meaning.1 struggled so bard that at last the spel] was in n degree broken.Following the direction of her cyes, I looked down at myself and saw fistened to the breast of my doublet the knot of blue velvet which she had made for my sword hilt, and which I had cver since carried in my bosom.More, ¥ Mw, with a singular feeling of anger and sorrow, that a hand which came over my shoulder was tugging hard at the ribbon in the attempt to remove it.This gave me horrible concern, yet at the moment I could not move nor do anything to prevent it.At last, making a stupendous effort, I awoke, my last experience, droaming, being of the strange band working at my breast.My first waking ides was the same, so that I throw out my arms and cried aloud and sat up Ugh!\" I exclaimed, trembling in the intensity of my rellef ns I looked about and welcomed the now familar surroundings.\u201cIt was only a dream.It was\u201d\u2014 I stopped abruptly, my oyea falling on a form lurking in the doorway.I could see it only dimly by the light of a hanging lamp, which smoked and burned redly overhond.Yet I could see it.It was roal, substantial\u2014a waking figure.Nevertheless a faint touch of superstitious terror still clung to mo.\u2018\u2018Spcak, plenso!\u2019\u2019 I asked.\u2018Who is it?\u201d **It is only I,\u2019\u2019

you seemed,\u201d she added, \u2018to be having such painful dreams that perhaps it was as well I did.\u201d I was fumbling In my breast whilo she spoke, and certainly, whother in my sleep I had undone tho fastenings or had loosen ed them intontiomally bofore I Jay down\u2014 though 1 could not remember doing so\u2014 my doublet and shirt wore open at the breast.Tho volvet knot was safe, however, in that tiny inner pockot besido the letter, and 1 breathed again.\u201cI am very glad you did awake me!\" I replied, looking gratofelly at her.\u2018I was having 0 horrible dream.But how good it was of you to think of me, and when you aro not well yoursolf too.\u201d \u201cOh, I am better,\u201d she murmured, her eyos, which glistened In the light, fixed steadily on me.\u2018Much bettor.Now go to sleep again, and happicr dreams to you.Aftor tonight,\u201d she added pleasantly, '*1 shall no longer consider you as an invalid nor intrude upon you.\" Ana she was gone bofore I could reiterate my thanks, The door foll to, and I was alone, full of kindly feclings toward hor and of thankfulness that my horrible vision had no foundation.\u2018Thank heav- on!\" I murmured moro

containing an article by Rev.J.Tallman Pitcher in reply to my sermon on \u2018Repentance After Death\u2019 which you recently published.Please allow me to make a few com- wents thereon, lu the first place lel me express my pleasure that Mr.Pilcher, at least, has outgrown the beliet \u201cthal men will be condemned because they have inherited evil from Adam,\u201d and that be believes that even the heathen who do not hear of Christ in this world will somehow be saved in the world to come.I have, moreover, a great deal of pleasure in believing that Mr.Pitcher does not stand alone in the advanced position which he thus oe.cupies smong \u2018the greal majority of Christians.\u201d There are very manv, I sm confident, who sympathize wilh him.It ie one of the encouraging signs of the times, But I cannot ad- wit that he represents the majority; and votwithstanding his denial of my statement that **the great majority of Christians believe that all men deserve endless damnation on account of thejr so-called original sin, inherited from tbe first wan Adam,\u201d 1 think the truth of the statement is very easily demonstrable.Docs Mr.Pitcher forget the majority of Chuis- tians are Roman and Greek Cutho- lies?The Roman Catholic Church alone embraces move than half of all the people of Christendom, and the Greek Church embraces so many millions that together they include more than two-thirds of the whole.If any one doubis that both of those Cburches teach the doctrine of damnation for original sin inberited from Adam, and they require all their members to believe in that doctrine, let him buy or borrow a copy of Dr.Philip Schaff\u2019s © Creeds of Christendom,\u201d and read the authoritative creeds of those Churches.Or let him read a Roman Catholic catechism.I have one now before me which says that through Adam's sin **we lost original justice and are horn out of the grace and favor of God,\u201d and that \u2018the only remedy nt present is the means which our Redeemer left in baptism,\u201d aud hat **none of the children of Adam shall enter heaven without it; no, not even infants.\u201d **Unbaptised infants,\u201d il says, \u2018are carried to a part of hell, called the Limbus of children, where they endure the pain of loss, that is, will never see God.\u201d If Mr.Pitcher does not admit that Roman Catholics ure Chiistisns, Lut is dispused to restrict; tbe, Christian name 0 Protestants, let him study tbe creeds and catechisms of the principal Protestant sects, and be will find the doctrine of condemnation for original sin, sin inherited from Adam, distinctly stated in every one of them.Let him turn to the Westminster Confession of Faith, the creed of thie Presbyterian Church (which its General Assembly in (bis couniry bas lately refused to alter by a jot or tittle), and let him read Chapters VI., VIL, and XXXII.Language cannot more plainly stale the doctrine of endless damnation for inherited sin, and the necessity of faith in Jesus Cbrist on this side of the grave in order to escape from that damnation.Or, let him read Art.IX, of the Thirty-nine Articles of the Church of England, or the Baptismal Service in the Book of Common Prayer.The former says that \u2018\u2018original sin is naturally engeudered of the offspring of Adam, and in every person born into this world, it deserveth God\u2019s wrath and damnation.\u201d The latter plainly implics that before baptism an infaul is a child of the devil, and that in the act of baptism it is regenerated and becomes a child of God.Or let him read Arts.VII., VIF.and IX of the Twenty-five Articles of Religion drawn up by John Wesley for the American Methodists, or his published sermons on Salvation by Faith, Justification by Faith, and Original Sin.In the first of these sermons Wesley says that saving faith *tis not barely the faith of a heathen,\u201d but *an assent to the whole gospel of Christ\u201d and *\u2018a full reliance on the blood of Christ.\u201d In the Bec- ond sermon he says that because of Adam's sin \u201call are dead, dead lo God, dead in sin, dwelling in a corruptible mortal body, shortly to be dissolved, and under sentence of eternal death,\u201d but that **for the sake of His well beloved Sov, God now vouchsafes, on one only condition, both to remit the puuishment due lo our sins, and to restore our dead souls to spiritual life,\u201d which condition, be saye in the same sermon, \u2018is faith.\u201d In the third sermon he says that they who deny the «doctrine of original sin \u2014that man is by nature filed with ail manner of evil, and void of all good are but heathens themselves.It would be bard, I think, to reconcile these statements of Jobn Wesley, from the Methodist Standards, with Mr.Puctier\u2019s position that the heathen who have never heard of Christ are not uoder cendemnution, or even with the doctrine that infants will be saved unless there is a chance for saving faith to be exercised for the first time in the other world.Certainly neither a heathen who has never heard of Christ, nor au infant, can in this world obey \u2018the one only condition\u201d wbich Wesley lays down.Does Mr.Pitcher mean to say: that tbe Methodist Church has so far departed from its standards as to agree with him rather than with John Wesley in regard to original sin?Has he forgotten the action of the American Board of Foreign Missions in refusing within the last five years, to allow any of ils missionaries to believe in an opportunity for the heathen 10 be saved after death?Ie he not familiar with the doctrinal basis of the Evangelical Alliance, which requires belief in **the utter depravity of buman nature in cousequence of the Fall,\u201d and *\u2018the justification of the sinner by faith alone?\u201d If aware of these things, how can he maintain that the majority of Cliristians believe that there is no condemnation for the heathen who die without bearing the gospel, and thal all children nre saved by virtue of \u201cthe unconditional benefits of Christ's atonement?\u201d That the majority of Protestant Christians believe in the salvation of all persons who die in infancy, 1 admit in my sermon; but I insist that they do s0 at the expense of consistency.\u2018They Lave no right to do so if their premises are true as to original sin and the probationary character of the life that now is.T'o base a belief in the salvation of all infants ou the Saviour\u2019s declaration that **of such is the kingdom of heaven,\u201d is Lo make that paseage of Seriplure contradict the whole doctrine of original sin (as It unquestionably does) ; and, furthermore.it is to put an interpretation upon it which the Saviour never had in mind, He did vot say that the kingdom of heaven waa composed of little children, that its membership consisted of babies.He said not of them, but of such, is the kingdom of heaven, meaning that only those people who have the childlike disposition can enter hie kingdom.It was not babyhood, but humility, docility, teachableness, and obedience thal he commended as the condition of entering bis kingdow, just as when he said to his ambitious and quarrelliog disciples, **lxcept ve be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter the kingdom of heaven.\u201d Rightly understood, his words certainly teach that little children are not **filled with all manner of evil and void of alt good,\u201d but they do not teach that any exception is made for children as to the terms of salvation.Io their endeavor to escape from the logic of their own premises as to the damnation of childven, the great majority of modern Protestant Christians bave read into this particular passage of Scripture a weaning which it will not hear, and have greatly overworked it in support of a mistaken theory.No doubt all children will sometime be saved, whether or not they die in infancy, but they must all alike, wheth- erin this world or in tbe workl to come, accept the conditions of salvation, and grow in grace Lill they \u2018*come to u perfect man, to the measure of the sature of the fulness of Christ.The old Orthodoxy, so-called, was logival.From its horrible premises it drew a straight line to its horrible conclusion.Universalis is also logical.From its glorious premises, derived from (he Gospel, it draws a straight line to its glorious conclusion.But the kiud of Orthodoxy which Mr.Pitcher apparently represents is neither logical nor Scripturaf.See the strange sct of conclusiuns to be drawn from it, He says that little children and the heathen who die without hearing the gospel are not under condemnation, because ley have pot known Christ's law, **there can be no condemnation | where there has been no tranagres- sion cf à known law\u201d; and lus impli- catipn plainly is that they will all be saved because knowledge has pol been given to them.For salvation by faith, he substitutes in their cases salvation by ignorance.If that be the case, it would seem that we need an amended edition of the New Testament, in which there should be a passage like this : What advantage, then, has the heathec who has never beard the gospel over him who has heard it; or what advantage hath tbe person who diethb in infancy over bim who lives long enough to ave Christianity preached to him?Mmch every way ; chiefly because the former ure sure to be saved, and the latter are very likely to be eternally damned.Another passage should read in this way : God was so minded to have somebody damned that he sent His only begotten Son into the world, that whosoever heareth His word and be- lieveth it not, should not have everlasting life, but should perish.For God sent not His Son into the world to save the wotld, but that a part of the world through him wight perish.He that knoweth not him is not condemned ; but be that knoweth and re- Jecteth him is condemned to everlasting torment.According to Mr.Pitcher*s theory, we should be exceedingly thankful when our little children die, and exceedingly sorry that Christ was born, and exceedingly careful not to send any missionaries to the ignorant heathen.So far as the heathen are concerned, we have only to let well enough slone ; and 80 far as the world is concerned, we have only to wonder why God did not do so.But Mr.Pitcher says, \u201cWe know it is the will of God that all men should be saved,\u201d notwithstanding which he maintains that many will not be saved hecause their will is contrary to God's will.Let us then still further amend the Holy Scriptures, and for Rom, 3:8 subsiiiute this: What if some did not belicve?Shall their unbelief make the faith of God without cffect?Yea, verily, lel man\u2019s free will prevail at all hazards, though it proved God himself to te defeated.For such passages as Pea.83:11; Prov.19: 21; Isa.46: 10, let us substitute something like this: \u201cThe wicked bringeth the counsel of the Lord to naught ; by the devices of me heart he defeats God's purpose, 80 that he is unable to do all His pleasure.Isaiah says that the pleasure of the Lord ehall prosper in the Saviour\u2019e hand, and that he shall see of the travail of his soul and be satiefied.Mr.Pitcher wishes us to believe jn a God: whose will is to be defeated everlastingly Ly a part of mankind and: io à Saviour who, having died for the.whole world, will be forever unsat fied.For my own part, 1 vastly.pra fer the Scriptural doctrine of a Fath er Almighty, who permits his childte to be subject to vauily for a sen in order that bystvuggling » lb den tation and sin they may gait api wisdom, strength, and - virtue: who will never desert ihétti any of them Lo go so far in prodigality as to baflle his own loving purpose concerning them I believe, as firmly as Brotber Pitcher does, that whatsoever a man soweth that shall he also reap, and I also believe what he seems to have overlooked, that although our heavenly father chastens men when they sin, vet it is always for their profil, and that afterwards it yieldeth the peaceable fruits .of - righteousness unto them who are exercised thereby (Heb.12: 9-11), This I believe, notwithstanding the quotations which Brother Pitcher throws at me from Unitaridn sources \u2014quotations whica have do wejght 4 all with me.They simply show that the gentlemen who made such assertions were not Universaliste, and that like certain Unitarians of olden time they did err, **not knowing the Scriptures, nor Lhe power of God.\u201d \u2019 Epwin C.SWEETSER.Philadelphia, Apr.25, 1895.-.- Ottawa News Letter.[From our own correspondent.) Ottawa, April 23.The cetre of attraction où Monday was transferred from the Commons to the Senate, where tbe address in reply Lo the speech from the throne was moved by the Hon.Mr.Primrose and sec- ouded by Hon.Mr.Arseneaull.Both gentlemen acquitted themselves well.Hon.R.W.Scott, the leader of the.Opposition in the Senate delivered tbe usual criticism of the Government\u2019s policy generally.After blaming the Government for tue delay in cailing Parliament, he devoted himself principally to the Manitoba School question, and condemued the Government for, as be expressed it, taking five years to find oul thata wrong bad been done to the minority, when that was perfectly clear to everybody long ago.He contended that the question was not one of Provincial rights at all.That the eom- pact made with the miuvority by the Manitoba Act of 1870, had been violated and that the Provincials Act of 1890 should have been disallowed.Mr.Scout is a Roman Cathohe, aod, his hoe of argument was similar to that followed by him every time the Manitoba School question has come up for discussion in Lhe Senate.Sir Mckenzie Bowell, who was received with great applause on vising in reply to Mr.Scou, delivered a very able and forcible speech, which was a model of sound sense and cal dispassionate te Ge ; thanked the leader \u2018of the Opposition for the personal complaints contained in bis speech, and puid an eloqueal and feeling tribute 10 the memory of the men who bad preceded him in the bigh office of Premier of Canada.| He referred in touching terms to ih \u201c+ late Prewier, Sir John Thompson, and declared that be bad ueyer mous, Eu wore noble, bouest or.fairmitñdéd mao.After touching briefly on the trade depression, the admission of Newfoundland, (which he trusted would soon be accomplished), the French Treaty, sud other matters mentioned in the address, he came io the Manitoba School question;-\u2018And tlearly and ably defined tue policy of\u201d the Government.He deprecated Lhe tone adopted by the leader of the Opposition, and pointed out tLat 10 treating it as he bad done, that gentlemen had placed himself in aotag- onism to the opinions of some of the best lawyers and judgee in both Canada and the United Kingdom.The question was not one lu be so easily and summarily settled as the leader of the Opposition seemed to suppose.The case had been for five yedis before the Courts in various phases, and when the leader of the Opposi- lion said that there should have been vo difference of opinion as to the powers of the Government of Manitoba, he forgot that was the very question on which there bad been differences of opinion In the highest courts of the land.He took up.the.celebrated resolution iatroduced.in the House of Commons fé \u201c1890:°8 the Hon.Mr.Blake, under which th reference of the constitutional point involved in Lhe case was made to th Supreme Court, and pointed out that.the whole ohject: bf this: resolytiouy: which was au eat \u2018 both tiouses, was to remove questions.of this nature from the arena of poly itics and leave them to the calm: and deliberate consideration of the cov; He twitted the leader of tha Oppbs tion in the Senate with being at var ance with the leader of the 0, tions from a Judicial and not:¢ political standpoint.+ 727 He contended that'a Goverom in its action on thé Monitott: case had followed exactly the\u2019 laid down for it by the cd In defining this course be is a matter of satisfaction to toe, know that the; 1871.were A Apy and that they were desitony\u2019vl ve taining intact tbe obligations into which thvy had entered whe province came into Conféderati Andit also may be:à satisfad!

Win.Ryan took place on Monday afternoon.\u2018The service was held in the Wesleyan Church, Rev.J.R.Macleod officiating.\u2018The body was then taken to the C.I\u2019.R.4 p.m.train, en route to Packenham, Ont.The four elders\u2019 sons acted as bearers.Deceased was president of the local W.C.T.U., and vice-templar of the 1.0.G.T.\u2018The funeral was a very large one and comprised several of our first Catho- lie citizens, showing in what high ca- teem she was held.A large wreath was placed on the coflin, a memoriam from Trifluvian Lodge, No.47, I.O.G.T.\u2018The Rev.Mr.Ryan and family have the sympathy of all the Tri- flavians.Mrs.Ryan, wife of Rev.W.W.Ryan, formerly pastor of the Methodist Church here, died at her home in Three Rivers, Saturday afierooon, March 80.About two months ago she was taken down with la grippe nud suffered several relapses, which eventually resulted in a fatal attack of pneumonia.The deceased Indy was well and favorably known in Waterloo, where she had many warm friends not only in the Methodist congregation but among all denominations.During her stay here she took an aclive part in temperance as well as church work and her energy and talents made her a particularly prom- ment figure in W.C.T.U.circles.She was a woman with strong, sincere convictions, and whatever her hand found to do she did with all her might.Though deeply devoled lo her public duties, she never allowed their performance to stand in the way of her domestic cares and responsibilities, and in her own howe she displayed the numberless virtues of a Christian wife and mother.She leaves a husband and a large family of children, some of them of still tender age, to mourn her untimely demise.\u2018The ve- mains were taken to Packenham, Out, for interment.Since leaving Waterloo, Rev.Mr.Ryan has been stationed at Richmond, Beebe Plain, and lastly at Three Rivers, where he now is,\u2014[ Waterloo Advertiser.ee ee 0 How rie Eprror Gers Ricu:\u2014A child is born ; the doctor in attend ance gets 810; the editor notes it and gets 0; it is christened and the minister gets 85 ; and the editor writes it up and get 00; it marries and the minister gets another fee, the editor gets a piece of cake or 000.In the course of time it dies ; the doctor gets from $5 to $100 and the minister perhaps gets another 85, the undertaker 825 to $50; the editor prints a notice of death and an obituary, a set of resolutions of some lodge or organization to which the deceased belonged and receives 0000, and then has the privilege of running a free card of thanks aud a lot of poetry besides.\u2014 { Exchange.\u2014__.\u2026.Death of Col.Franklin Falrbanks.Col.Franklin Fairbanke died at his residence St.Johnsbury, Vt., on Wednesday evening, Arpril 24.Col.Fairbanks was the youngest of ihe four sons of Iirastus Fairbanks, one of the founders of the scale works al St.Johnsbury.Of the brothers who founded bat successful enterprise, Erastus prebaps was the best known to the general public from his connection wilh the Pussumpsic Railway ami his political advancement, having been Govornor of the State.The town of St.Jolnsbury owes its growth more to the Fairbanks family than to any other source.Liberal minded and public spirited, they encouraged every worthy enterprise and as far as their influence extended, prevented the introduction of vicious people and practices into that model villiage, and their sons nnd daughters Lave followed their fathers in their noble work.The death of lus wife last February was a heavy blow to Col.Fairbanke, and bis care oud watching over her so lowered his vitality that he succumbed to the disense (pueumonia).Col.F.conferred a great blessing upon the village of St.Johnshury in the establishment of the Fairbanks Museum of Natural Science with a large collection of benutiful objects collected by himself and wife at home and abroad.He was au active member of the North Congregational Church and of missionary organizations.It may be said that such men arc not only a loss lo their immediate neighborhoods but to the world at large.Viol Lina! Cus Cul, Ottawa News Letter.{From our own correspondent ] Ottawa, Aprtl 27.\u2014Tbe weck which has just closed in the House has nol been marked by any great debate, by a divieion, or by any very remarkable event ; still it has been considerably above the average of first weeks in the session inasmuch as a great deal of good solid work has been done, and the foundation laid for getting through business in short order if the Opposition continues to evince as good temper as has been shown in the past week.The business bas been mostly of a rouline nature, and the evidence that this is not altogether light work it may be stated that from the opening of the House up to to-day 107 notices bave been placed on tbe order paper.Of these 67 were notices of question, wich have been answered, 15 were bills, 9 of which have been introduced ; and 67 were for returns of various kinds, 26 of which have been adopted.The Government measures introduced so far have been the bill to amend the Dominion\u201d Notes Act and the estimates will be brought down oo Monday, and itis uoder- stood that the House will go into supply on Tuesday, and keep at (bat when it has no other business to go on with.Mr.Foster promises the Budget on Friday, which will be earlier than usual.The condition of business is therefore very good, and, although 1L is difficult to make any forecast so early in the session, still the present indications are thal the members will not care to spend the whole summer bere if it can be avoided, and (bat prorogation may take place before Dominion Day.Sir Richard Cartwright snd Mr.MeMullin, it is true have both threatened to obstruct the progress of the estimates, but these gentlemen will probably find themselves in the minority ins their own party, if they attempt to unduly prolong the session.MANITOBA SCHOOL CASE.So far as the Commons is concerned the Manitoba School Case may be considered as shelved for the present.À number of returns being on the case have been asked for, and will be laid on the table, und now that tbe addrees has been passed, the matter is not likely to come up again until after a reply bas been received from the Manitoba Government.The impression is gaining ground here that this reply may not be exactly what the Hon.Mr.Sifton has been telling the people of Ontario it would be, and that Mr.Greenway may neither accept the remedial order as it stands, nor refuse to obey it but many suggest a conference belween the lwo governments with a view to the adoption of à compromise.The Hon.Robert Watson, Provincial Secretary of Manitoba, has been here for several days, conferring with the Liberal leaders, and romour has it had his mission has been to find out whether the Liberal party, should it be returned to power at tho next general election, would support the Manitoba Government should it decline to accept the decision of the Judicial Com.ittee in the Privy Council, It must be remembered that the Liberal party in the Dominion House is about evenly divided into three parts, one of which supports separate schools, another opposed to separate schools, and the third takes very little interest in the matter, and would support which ever policy seemed likely to capture most votes.Mr.\u2018l'arte and Mr.Martin are as far assuuder on the question as the poles, and Mr.Laurier is not having at all a pleasant time trying to get his followers to pull togeather.COMPROMISE SUGGESTED.The debate of the address bas been continued in the Senate all the week.The most noticable feature has been the speech delivered hy Senator Bolton on Tuesday, in which be advocated the solution of the Manitoba Scliool difficulty, by the Dominion Government making an annual allowance for the support of such of the separate schools as were established prior to 1890 within the old boundaries of the Province of Manitoba.Mr.Bolton\u2019s idea is that as the Act of 1871 establishing separate schools only applied to the then Province of Manitoba, containing some 10,000 square miles, it would be unjust to interpret the decision of the.Privy Council as applying to the new boundaries of Manitoba which embrace more thav ten times that area.This scheme of Mr.Bolton\u2019s would practically embrace all, or very nearly all of the separate schools, now in existence, aod it bears an air of plausibility which may commend it to many who are striving to find one middle course out of the Manitoba school d'fliculty.THE HERO OF HALDIMAND.\u2018The Hon.Mr.Montague, Secretary of State was introduced to the House ou Tuesday by the Hon.J.C.Patterson and Mr.J.H.Marshall, M.P.- for East Middlesex.The \u2018Conquering Hero\u2019 of Haldimand received an immense ovation by the hands of the House, one which has seldom been exceeded by any member on his return to the House after carrying a by-clection.The redoubtable doctor, appeared in excellent bealtl, the exertions of the campaign not seeming to have had the slightest effect on him.He is not only performing his own duties in the House ae Secretay of State, but is also representing the Minister of Agriculture, whose seat is in the Senate.In this dual capacity the new Minister bad bad a good deal of routine work to do during the week in the way of answering questions and making explanations, and be, has acquitted himself io a manner which has fully justified the prophesies of his friends, that if taken into the Ministry he would prove one of its most uscful and capable members.MR.COSTIGAN'S GREAT SPERCII.Before the debate on the address closed on Tuesday Mr.McCarthy made a short speech on the Manitha School question which was merely =a pocket edition of harangues he d.livered during the Haldimand campaign.It served, however, asan excellent peg \u2018on which Mr.Costigan could hang a very temperate moderate and dignifled reply in the course of wbich Le very briefly reviewed this school question and pointed out fth: injustice and unfairness of Mr.Mc.Carthy in trying to claim that thx Roman Catholic Church was in any way respousible for this misfortunate recitation.Mr.Costigan claimed that the provisions in the Manitoba Act of 1870 were placed there for the protection of the then Protestant minority.That the separate schools established io 1871 by the Manitoba Government had worked satisfactorily up to the lime of their abolition by the local legislature in 1890.That the Liberal Government of Manitoba in passing this Act of 1890 had deprived the minority of rights of which they were entitled, and thal in seeking to have those rights restored, they were only actiog in self defence.The Liberal Government of Manitoba be eaid bad made all the trouble.The judicial commitiee of the Privy Council bed declared that the Act of 1890 passed by the Liberal Government bad deprived the minority of rights which should be restored, and it was therefore, the duty of Mr.Greenway und his Liberal Government of Manitoba to obey the order of the judicial commitlee, and reslore the rights of which the minority had been unjustly deprived.There was no question whatever, Mr.Costigan said, as tn the establishment or nonestablieb- ment of separale schools.IL was settled by the British North America Act and by the Manitoba Act, that the minority io the Province of Manitoba, whether Catholic or Protestant were to have separate schools, and it was 8 most unfair way of pulling it to pretend now that the Dominion Government was trying to establish separate schools in Manitoba.All that the Dominion Government was tryiog to do was to get the Manitoba Government to deal fairly by the minority and to restore to it the rights of which it had been unjustly deprived.THE WEEK IN THE SENATE.There is a tendency to disparage the work of the Senate, and in years gone by there was some ground for this, as **the old ladies,\u201d as they are popularly designated, spent a great part of their time in \u201c*adjournments.\u201d On the advent of the late Sir John Abbott to the leadership, however, a morc business-like tone was imparted to the deliberations of the second Chamber; and since Sir McKenzie Bowell assumed the leadership this business-like habit has not only been continued but it has been improved on, a great deal more work being done.Last year the Senate mel on almost as many days as the Commons, a number of bills including the Insolvency act, were introduced in that Chamber and passed, and a great deal of useful work was accomplished whicliconsiderably lightened the labors of tbe Commons.So far this year the Senate has practically devoted its energies to the address which was passed on Friday, after a weeks debate.The discussion was in every way as good as that in the Commons, and the speeches on the whole were rather more elevated and dignified in tone.Ou Friday the Hon.Mr.Ferguson, the representative of Prince Edward Island in the Cabinet, closed the debate with an address which defined and defended the position of the Government on the Manitoba School Case, as clearly and ably as anything which bas been said on this much talked of subject.PROHIBITION COMMISSION.\u201cAt last and at length\u201d the Royal Commission on the liquor traffic hae made ils report.Whatever differences of opinion there may be as to tbe utility and practical result of the Commissions there can be no question as Lo the industry of its members.Io three years they have managed to collect enough evidence, and to compile a suficiently long report, to occupy an ordinary mortal who tried to read it for the balance of the century.The report itself makes fifteen hundred typewritten pages, or about balf a million words, while the evidence collected {lls five large blue books, which aggregate about 38,500 or 8,000,000 words.Any person desirous of obtaining a plentiful supply of somewhat heavy literature for the next few years, bad better apply to lie representative in Parliament to secure him a copy of this somewhat expensive work.The cost of the commission has been about $70,000, so far, and there is a good deal more vet to come.As to the conclusions al which the commission has arrived they were foregone.The majority of the Commission reports against prohibition as being impracticable and unworkable, as shown by the experience of countries where it has been tried.Beynolds\u2014Church.SOCIETY WELL REPRESENTED AND CEREMONY IMPRESSIVE.One of the most brilliant Easter weddings in Dorchester district was that of Miss Emma Louise Church and Dr.Wilbur A, Reynolds, which took place at the residence of Mr.and Mrs.George James on Ocean street Wednesday evening.To the measures of the wedding march the bridal party entered the parlors, where the ceremony

**What makes one town grow into a city while the othere with equally good locations remain villages?\u201d We publish it as an article for reflection for that greedy class, who can see no good come from anything that has not a visible money spout leading directly to their own pockets: *It is because in one case there are wen of push and energy who are not afraid to spend their time and money to boom their town.They erect substantial buildings, organize stock companies and cetablish factories, work for public improvements and use eve:y means in their power to build up their town.Wherever they go they tell of its advantages, they wrile about it in every letter, they send out circulars and newspapers to every acquaintance whom they think can be induced to visit their town, and when any one visits thew shows him all the attractions and treat him so kindly that he falls in Jove with their town at once.\u201d It is enterprise that makes a progressive town, and don't let that fact es cape your memory.A week or two ago a farmer from an adjoining township was selling \u201cnew\u2019\u2019 maple syrup in Sherbrooke.A customer full of wrath told bim it was from last year's sugar, whercup- on the farmer wagered 85 it wasn't from last year's sugar.\u2018The wager was taken up, when the farmer proved it was made, not from last year's sugar, but from sugar two Jeat'e old, winning bis

baw.The lie was turned around by the cowcatcher and fell between the rails, the entire train passing over it.Three bours before tbe Express struck the tie freight train 24 struck a similar obstruction at the same point.It carried the tie to the switch where the engine was derailed.No damage was done in either case.Just about a year ago a similar attempt at train wrecking was made at this point.Norman McLeod of Bury, a farmer, aged 45, left his home Sunday, 141h inst, and pot returning in a day or lwo search was made by bis brother M.K.McLeod, who found bim Jy- ing io the snow in the

(hat no uneasiness was felt by his relatives at his nou returning Sunday night.An inquest was held by Coroner Woodward and a verdict of death from hunger and exposure was returned.Geo.H.Parsons, a G.T.R.loco: wotive engineer residing in Richmond, was instantly killed two miles north of Lake Station before daylight on the morning of the 21st inst.Deceased wus driver of a special freight train which left Island Pond at 2:15 a.m.The engine and tender broke lose from the cars, and wheu deceased discovered il he was coming down a grade and ron some distance to get clear of the detached portion of the train.A brakeman was sent back to signal that the train was broken while Parsons ran his engine elill farther Supposing by signals that the cars had been got under control, he stopped his engine.The detached portion had been broken in two, un- \u2018known to him, and the forward section struck the tender just as he was on the steps of the engine.The tender was driven into the cab, and Parsons was struck in the chest and instantly killed.The body was taken to Ricbmond where an inquest was conducted by Coroner Woodward the jury finding a verdict of accidental death, Deceased was 43 years of age and leaves a wife aod five chil dren.He was well-known and much respected.Coaticook has again been visited by fire.At about midnight on tbe 25th uit., the baron in connect ion with the Coaticook House was discovered to be on fire.At about tbe same time fire was discovered in the shed connected with the Baptist Church and separated from the hotel barns by a very narrow space and a fence.No lanterns were used in the barn that building being lighted by electricity, and it is believed by many that the five originated fo the church shed.Tbe Observer suggests that \u2018sa stray match from a drunken man or possibly a well directed one from a sober man did the work.\u201d A *\u2018pail brigade\u201d kept the flames back from tbe outbuildings in the rear of Foxe store until

Mr.Mutock's chargo is that by laxnoss in regard to the quarantine against the United States the Goverment of Canada was instrumental in having the embargo placed up again against Canadian cattle, \u2018 DESPERATE MEN, 1 wish to show you, using this charge as an instance, to what lengths men like Mr.Mulock, desperate in their unreasoning struggle for office, will go, and I must ask you therefore to allow me to give you a brief bistory of the matter By most vigorous and painstaking cf- forts the Canadian Conservative Government gecured in 1879 the removal of the British embargo against our cattle.(Cheers,) It consequence of this we enjoyed the privilego of sending our fat cattle alive to the British market towns, and our stockors to the British pastures, thore to be fitted for market, while the cattle oxported from the United States had to be slaughtered almost immodi- ately upon thelr arrival at British ports.This was of immonse advantage to Canadian cattle raisors, indeed an independent authority, the agricultural statisticlan of the United States, declared it to be worth from five to ten dollars a head.Asa consequence our trade grow greatly, with correspondingly great gains to Canadian producers, You must remember, sir, that this concession was only secured after the greatest and most faithful and persis tent effort.THE AGREEMENT.It was necessary first to demonstrate that our herds were free from pleuro.pneumonia.This was done, And, second, it was necessary to agrue to keep up a rigid quarantine against the United States, whose herds were well-known to be affected, This wus agreed to, and it has been faithfully carried out.Indeed, so faithfully wo havo been violently attacked by Mr.Mulock's assoclates in Parlinment bo- cause, in thus enforcing the quarantine regulations so severely, wo wore croat- ing hostility to Canadians among the people of the American Union.(Cheors.) I noed not tell you that the concession granted to us by the British Government was never popular among British cattle raisers, and year after year tho feeling against it grew more bitter and intense.Do you ask me why ?Woll, bocauso it Intor- fered with profitable home production, (Cheors.) British farmers were never free traders so far as furm products were concerned, FREE TRADE NOT A FARMER'S FIGHT, Mr.Laurier tells you that free trade there was a furmors' fight.He is wrong there in his history, as he usually is, Freo trade was carried by the British manufacturers, with the money of British manufacturers, and in spite of the struggle of British farmers.(Choers.) The embargo, however, was a kind of remnant of protection against freo importation of cattle and it was justly popular among the cattle producers of the Mother Land, (Cheers,) Indeed, so popular was it, and is it, that the Mark Lane Express has recontly suggested the advisability of discovering some discase in Canadian sheep in ordor that they, toe, may be scheduled, (Laughter.) BRITISH PROTECTION FEELING.Well, against this feeling, against this pressure for protection for the British producer, for such it was, the British authoritics had constantly to contend, and after some years thoy yielded, About three years ago the embargo was put up, the reason given boing that two bullocks had beon taken from Pilot Mound, Manitoba, in the steamships Hurona and Monksgcaton affected with Once more vigorous action was taken.The herds in the neighborhood wore all examined and found absolutely healthy.All the evidence went to show that the discaso did not exist there.Even British expert opinion was divided, and to this day part of that opinion is vory strongly against the contention of the British Board of Agriculture.Indeed, I have ne hesitation in saying that the facts (and evidence were our way, but the \u2018interests of British cattle raisers and, consequently, the pressure upon British authorities, wero tho other way.But the essential point to remember is that the caso of those two bullocks was the sole and only reason eve: vanced by the British authorities tor withdrawing from us tho privilege we enjoyed.In all the voluminous correspondence upon the question no other reason was even hinted at.(Cheers.) THR STUBBORN FIGHT.The fight of the Canadian Govern ment, assisted by our able High Commissioner, Sir Charles Tupper, has, for the reasons I have given, been a stub born and up-hill one, hut wo have faithfully kept it up, and have mot the contentions of the British authorities at every point, aud I have no hesitation in saying that we have shown beyond a possibility of contradiction our herds to be healthy and froo from the dread disease, (Cheers.) Well, sir, we had 80 far won our case that in tho spring Of 1894 the Marquis of Ripon, Secretary of State for the Colonies, had reported In favor of allowing our spring importations in without hindrance, and if they wera found hoalthy ho was in favor of the embargo being altogether removed.(Cheers.) Then it was that Mr, Mulock's unpatriotic act was com-~ mitted.Success seemed to hava been Government could secure, as they de- SIR RICHARD'S LETTER, When Sir Richard Cartwright wrote his infamous letter to The London Economist he was willing to injure the Con- scrvative party at the fearful cost of ruining Canadian credit abruad.When Mr, Muloek made his attack upon quarantine he wus anxious to injure his opponents at the expense of so important a Canadian industry.(Cheers.) We had met and answered the contention «f the British authorities.We had left them without a reason: but Mr.Mulock suggested to the British cattle raiser a new reason to press upon his Government, viz., that of carelessness of quarantine \u2014a reason they had never thought of and never montioned.What do you think of that act?Was it the act of a man who desired his country's woal?Supposing his charges had been true, though they were false, would it not have been the act of a patriot to have refrained at that supreme moment from making the charge?(Checrs.) A GRAVE CHARGE, 1 charge now that, in making it, Mr.Muluck was serving the meanest party ends at the expense of our {farmers and cattlo raisers, and that he knew what he was doing, and why he did it.(Cheers.) And, now, to show you how anxious ho was to do this dastardly work, I wish to call your attention to two facts.First\u2014the cattle said to be affected with pleuro-pneumonia were shipped from a point, viz., Pilot Mound, Manitoba, more than a thousand miles from Point Edward, the point at which the carelcssness with which Mr.Mulock charged the Govornment, was allowed, (Cheers) A DISBASED IMAGINATION.What possible connectlon, except in the diseased Imagination of such a man as Mr.Mulock, could there be between the one and the other?Next, the bullocks said to be affected with pleuro- pneumonia were shipped in 1892, while the carolessness which was charged occurred, according to Mr, Mulock\u2019s own statement, more than eight years previously.(Choers.) Just cight Years and a thousand miles and more apart - (cheers) \u2014 and during those eight years the British authorities never mentioned in all their correspondence any caralessness.And yet Mr.Mulock now tells the Canadian electorate that the embargo was put up because our Government was guilty of the carelessness ho charged.1 leave you to judge of the desperate condition of a party who are driven to such straits in order to find a erys against their opponents ; but bofore I conclude 1 must read (to you, from a source that will at once bo accepted by you as a good one, an opinion upon Mr.Mulock's course upon the question.CONDEMNED BY THE OATTLI DEALBRS' JOURNAL, 1t is the opinion of The Butchors' and Cattle Dealors\u2019 Journal.The article is hounded, \u201cMr.Mulock again on tho Rampage,\u201d and reads as follows : \u201cMr, Mulock has again been indulging in his loquacity, and treating the members of the I'ederal Government to one of his harangues on the question of the Canadian cattle embargo, if indoed it may be callod a treat.He occupied the time of tho House on Wednesday afternoon for nearly four hours with a bitter tirade against the Minister of Agriculture and the Deputy Minister, intorspersing his speach with copious extracts from the regulations respecting the transportation of cattle in Canada.While pretending to try and benefit the Canadian cattle trade,hoe has done more harm to] this industry by his meddlesome intorfaronce than if ho had been specially retained for the purpose of advocating a continuance of the om- barge.It is quite evident that Mr.Mu- jock has never raid any attention to tho study of pleuro-pneumonia in cattlo and how it is likely to be communicated from ono animal to another.Ho has, however, studied the spirit of opposition for the puro love of it, and he made tho occasion one for indulging in that samo to a most unpardonable .tent, Nothing could be more calculated to injure the cattle trade of tho Dominion, or to play into tho hands of its oppononts in Great Britain, than the speech of Mr.Mulock.Canadian catt.exporters?have suffor- ed recently from American competition and just now, whon there is a chance of their realizing good profits owing to tho short shipments of American cattle caused by western railroad strikes, it is undoubtedly hard to think that a prominent Canadian M.P.should so ruthlessly rush in and try to stop the progross of this once promising industry.\u201d (Cheers.) TILE MASK THROWN OFF.CANDID CONFESSION MADE BY A LIBERAL ORGAN.Mow They Managed Malters in the Connty of Norfolk\u2014DPatrons and Grits Slave Come 10 nn \u201cUnderstanding.\u201d To the Eilitor of The Mail aud Empire.Sir, ~ I have read with uot a little in- torest the letters which have been appearing trom various correspondonts upon Patrons of Industry and their conduct with election matters, These letters, 1 beg to say to you, are making Conservative Patrons think as they never have thought before.The meme bers of the Patrons who were Conservatives, and no doubt many who wore Reformers, wont into this organization conscientiously, There seems to be very little doubt in any of their minds now, however, that it ls belug used as a sort of sideshow for Sir Richard\u2014who was the worst friend the farmers over had in the Govern- ment-\u2014and our own Mr.John Charlton, M.P.for this county.1 noticed the other day in a letter in hn! your columns n reference to this county, but asthe Grit paper in Nor- fork was only mentioned and its exact words not given, 1 felt it my duty to call the attention of Conservative Patrons to just what it says.It shoull bo remembered that the editor of The Nor- fork Reformer is Mr.11.B.Donly, tho right-hand man ot Bother John Charl ton, and the accretary of tho Reform Association.Here is what The Retorm- er says : \u201cEvidence is accumulating that in Enstern Ontario the l\u2019atrons and Liber: als have come to a very sensible arrangement not Lo got into one another's way.For instauce, in the following ridings, now represented by Conservatives, the Patrons have candidates in the fleld : Carleton, Glengarry, South Lan.vk, North IL.cods, Dundas, Stor- mont, Frontenac, Kast 1nstings, North Hastings, and West York, In theso ridings, now hold by the Liberals, no Patrons are in nomination: Russell, Addington, West Ontario, North York, and Peel.In Poutiac tho Patrons havo ondorsed tho Liberal candidate.ln served, the gratitude of the people of the country.(Cheers) This would injure the Grit chance for office, and even at tho exponso of the cattle t rade Mr, Mulock was bound to prevent | Lae Lennox the Liberals aro supporting a Patron, This is indeod gratifying.Patrons and Liberals have in view ouo ohject, viz., the dofeat of tha present Government at Ottawa, How could they act nore wisely than by working harmoniously to accomplish thelr purpose?Now let the Liberals and Patrons of this county (Norfolk) come to the same scusible under standing.\u201d Tho word here used is \u2018\u2018understanding,\u201d and The Nortolk Reformer wants the Patrons here to come to the same understanding as the Patrons and the Grits have come to elsewhere, namely, to unite to defeat the Conservative party.Good, Bro.Donly! Conservative Patrons will be pleased at your candor, at least.What do Mr.Mallory and Mr, Wilson and Mr.Gifford think of this?Now, a word as to Grit Patron tactics in this old county.In the local the Patrons put up two candidates, one in the north and one in the south.\u2018The Grit Patrons deserted their candidates, and elected Grit candidates, Mz.Charl.ton and Mr.Carpenter.And to-day the Patron Grits are doing their best to help John Charlton in the North riding, but their wire-pullers are on deck to urge the Patrons to vote for a Patron candidate named Mr.Walker, aud against Colonel Tisdale, in the South riding.The reasons they are doing this is because a straight Grit has no chance against the Conservative candidate.Hoping 1 have given some light on the situation here, Yours, ete, PATRON CONSERVATIVE, March 19, 1895.Current Comment.Chatham Banner (Grit).\u2014In the pending contest Liberals and Patrons are striving for the same object, and a division of the forces in any constitu- cney would be suicidal, Peterborough Review.\u2014Tha first division at first sight would seem to indi cate that Sir Oliver and Mr.Hnycock are not such bad friends, not even on the fee system.ALL ONE-SIDED.Four hundred aud thirty millions of people of those most advanced in Science, Education and the Industrial Arts of the world stand nationally ranged and committed to the principle of protection for their industries by tariff legislation.Thirty-eight millions of British are all that are loft, who natlon- ally support the free-trade tariff system.These 430 millions include Canada, the United States, Mexico, South America, Germany, France, Italy, Spain, Portugal, Denmark, Australia, (exept.ing Now South Wales,) Switzerland, Austro-Hungary, Russia, Sweden and Norway, and other countries of minor importance.THE INTERCOLONIAL RAILWAY, The last year Mr.Mackonzie was in power tho Tntorcolonial Railway was managed at a loss of about $80,000.Sinco Mr, Maggart has had charge of that rond tho revenue has just about balauced the exponditure.What the Liberal Party ask is to be put in power agnin to manage the public works of Canada.Now the Intercolonial is a part of the public works of Canada and so tar ns we can judge, by tho figures which were given above, it would pay th prople of Canada to just leave tho man, who 1s at the job at preseut, managing that railway.Communication, To the Editor of the Stanstead Journal : Sir,-\u2014I notice in your last issue, that you are giving your renders the henefits to be derived from experience upon the merits of fice trade, That is the free trade test, wheu it can be applied ; aud fortunately for us we have the experience of Great Britain for nearly fifty yenrs to test its mer- ils.The early advocates of free trade described it ns the free interchange of the products of one country for those of another, to the wu- tual benefit of both, They repudiated the idea that it would interfere with the industries of any country iv the way of competition.IL was something hencficient, and they surrounil- ed with a halo, through which the angels of peace and plenty were enlarged to ten times ther natural size.Viewed by the light of experience we now know that free trade is something different.Instead of being a benefivient interchange of cormodi- ties for mutual benefit, it has become the flercest kind of a competition.The halo is dispersed, nud the angels of pence and plenty have disappeared, and instead we have sternfaced ne cessity, and no halo to soften its ns- peel.We now know that free trade is nothing more nor less than unrestricted competition, and we know that there is nothing heneficient in that.There is no economic value in cluapening by competition.What ane man gains by il is another man's loss, and it is as loulish to encourage it, as tis to maintain the gambling institutions of Baden Baden er Mou- aco.The only cheapening which possesses any economic value, is where a commodity is chieapened hy an iinproved method of production.Such cheapening enriches; but cheapening by competition means loss to the competitors.lt means a lower standard of living fur the farmer and the artisan, and loss of capital to the manufacturer and trader.Since 1876, Great Britain has had the price of a large proportion of her commodities nade by foreign compe- tion, and it is safe that not a single industry in Great Britains in a floar- ishing condition, in which the prices of its products are made by such competition.Previous to 1876 foreign competition did not make Lhe price of Britain's products, and British industries flourished.The prosperity of any country, Great Britun included, dapends upon the condition of its 1u- dustries.If the Loilers of a community are fully employed at remunera- live wages, there ave all the coudi- tous of material prosperity.If the | toilers are not so cmploved amd if their remuneration is fixed by their | necessities, then you have all the con ditions requisite for the making of = | wretched_ community.Since 1875] Great Britain's agricultural interes, have reached the lowest leve! durir of the present century, and her fro trade poliey is the cause of it.Th «| is something that the early ndvocat.« of free trade did not expect.Cot | den repeatedly assured the British farmer that he had nothing to fem from free trade.He told him tha: bis prosperity depended upon he prosperity of the trader and the mau- ufacturer, and if he would only coun- sent to free trade it would make them am e's Lu tes sisi sn © all prosperous.Cobden did not believe that free trade would injure the British farmer, because he did not believe that the foreigner could compete with lim.He wanted free trade more to insure abundant supplied of food, instead of cheapening it.He wanted it for the trader so that he could buy in th: cheap markets of the world and sell in the clear markets of Britain, and he wanted it for the manufacturer because he believed that it would enlarge his market and enable him to give profitable employment (o bis artisans.That the early advocates of free trade overrated ite beneficient qualities, and underrated its pernicious ones is not surprising.\u2018Fhe surprising thing is that à party claiming to be possessed of more than ordinuty intelligence should adopt it as their trade policy, after seeing ite «ffiets upon the industries of the only country that has had the courage lo give it a protracted trial \u2018The past five vears has determined the status of the farmer under a free trade policy.The value of his products hing been reduced by competi.lion until there is nothing for him but tho hurest necessities of life.He has seen -lus land and improvements steadily depreciate in value, and in a great many cases the hurd earned ac- comulations of a lifetime have been absotbed by that depreciatior.He has toiled late and carly lo increase the productiveness of bis land, and has nothing to show for it.The increased product has heen absorbed by the lowered price.If it is good policy to drive every ambitious man off ls farm, there is no way more effective to do it than to adopt and maintain a free trade policy.Sub- Jeet him to the competition of all tte semi-civilized communities in the world and he will sink to their level, und in so doing will create a free trader's paradise\u2014\u2018A cheap country to live in.\u201d AN Oro Tony.i - - School Report.Report of school at Beche Plain, Que, for school vear of 1894-5.MODEL DEPARTMENT.Grave [11 \u2014Reading-Walter Felts and James Longewny

Sleeplessness and Anxiety.* } Teachers The Great Spring Medicine Sweeps Away These Troubles.In almost every Canadian home, one or more members suffer from indigestion, dyspepsia, headache, nervousness or sleeplessness.In the greal majority of cases the doclors have failed to effect n permanent cure and the common patent medicines of our times have only prolonged suffering and agony.How different the results with those who have nsed Paine\u2019s Celery Compound! \u2018They have in every case heen raised to a condition of perfect health, robustness and mental vigor.Thousands of ranewed and re-created men and women in Canada, will for- vveroemember that their lives were saved and wade happy by Paine\u2019s Celery Compound.Mr.Hogh J.Riley, of 42 Agues Street, St, Munry, Montreav, is one of the many who have giveu public testimony for the benefit of sufferers in Canada.Mr.Riley writes as follows:\u2014 \u201c1 wish to publicly acknowledge the fact that I am indebted 10 your Patne\u2019s Celery Compound for health, strength aud life.For over three vears I was a terrible sufferer from indigestion, severe paing in the stomach and headache.In addition to these serious troubles, 1 had vo appe- lite or relish for food, aud hardly Knew what it was to have a full night's rest, This condition of sleep- lesgness and anxiety made me very nervous, and I was fast hecoming unfitted for my daily work.After all other medicines had failed, 1 was fortunately advised to use your Paine\u2019s celery Compound ; and now, I am delighted to declare that it has no equal in the world for removing such dangerous troubles as 1 suffered from.I am daily gaining in strengtl, sleep well every night, and my appetite is good and healihy.I strongly recom- mead Paine\u2019s Celery Compound to all who ueed a relialide nnd honest medicine, and one that is sure to cure.\u201d -\u2014 You've No Inka How nicely Hood\u2019 Sarsaparilla hits the ueeds of the people who teel all tired

The hon.gentleman referred to the debt which took place in 1871, and he stated quite correctly the opinions then beld by the wembers of the House of Commons.I remember tbe discussion very well, and I took the saine position theo that 1 take to-day and the same position that I maintained in 1863, when I was defeated in my own coun ime then to my constituent al if the question wus whether we should establish Separate Schools in this county or not, I should vote against them; but Separate Schools having beeu established, I would not be a party to depriving the minority of rights that they had acquired under the constitution which governed them.(Applause.) I expect that the lon.gen- temen who do as Mr.McCarthy did, when he argued the question before the Privy Council, point out how I! bad voted on that question.I remember that debate.Mr, McDougall stated directly that the passing of the Act with that amendment would be a perpetuation of the Separate School system in Manitoba, Mr.Chaveau, Mr.Cauchon, and the others took the same line, and it proves lo my mind, and it must prove to every reader of that debale, (bis important fact that when the resolu- lions were introduced admitting Manitoba into the Confederation, it was believed we were granting the same rights and privileges to-the Roman Catholics of Manitoba that had been granted to the minority in Quebec and to the winority of Ontario in relation to schools.IL was for that reason, helicving that we were conceding to that province what they did not then bave, (bat I recorded my vote as I then did; but I trust the day will pear arrive when the party with which I am connected will violate any agreement into which they have entered.\u201d GOOD ADVICE TO MANITOBA.He reviewed at some length the course which events bad followed, pointing out how the question of the right of the minority to appeal hud been decided in the Courts, and how the decision had heen acted on hy the Government, the result being the transmission of the remedial order to the Manitoba Government.He referred to the differences of opinion which seemed to exist in the Liberal party, upon the tone and spirit of that order, how the Government was blamed by the Opposition in one place, hecause the order did not go far enough and in another because it was 100 drastic in ils terms, while it was also contended that it ment nothing at all, In concluding his very able address he gave the following excellent advice to the Government of Manitoba.\u201cI hope sincerely with the mover and seconder of the Address that the people of Manitoba mav see their way clear to settle this question among themselves, and to relieve the Parliament of Canada from the serious nbligation which will devolve upon them otherwise.ll isa very grave matter for the Government of the Dominion to undertake to deal wi\u2018h a question which solely affects any one section of the country.If the people of Manitoba are patriotic they will keep this question out of the arena of Dominion politics, but if they desire to continue flinging fire brands among the electorate of this country, (who I om sure are desirous of living in peace and harmony) they will reject all overtures and act upon Lie suggestion of those who are leading the opposition throughout the country.I can only say that when the time comes, if it should come, for action by the government, the people of Canada will find that the present administration are quite prepared to assume the responsibility which may fall upon them, no matter what the result may be.\u201d (Cheers.) Sir Charles Hibbert Tupper has been confined to his house since Saturday, with a cold.His Excellency the Governor General and Lady Aberdeen left for Toronto on Monday forenoon.They were accompanied by Lady Thompson, who will take up ber residence in that city.Madame Laurier will hold her first reception this session in the Russell House on Thursday.Later on the Saturday night receptions which have \u2018proved so successful in former years will be resumed.It is said that the Opposition will hold a caugus next week, but that it has been decided before band that the Manitoba School question is not to be discussed until after the Manitoba Goverament has given its reply to the remedial order passed by the Dominion Government.Mr.Taylor has given notice of the following resolution ;\u2014That it is expedient to introduce a bill to cowpel manufacturers of cheese for sale or export, to brand both on tbe cheese and on the box the date on which the snipe was manufactured, and to provide for inspection.\u201d From a return brought down on Monday, it appears thal only four Governor General's warrants have been issued since last session, one for $50,000, to supply seed grain for settlers in the Nort West Termito- ries ; one for 825,000, for the funeral expenses of Sir John Thompson; 85,000, for repairing the wharf at River du Loup, aud 81,000, for repairs to harbors generally.Me.J.A.Ruddick who bas been in charge, during the past winter, of the Dairy School in connection with the School-of Mining and Agriculture at Kingston, bas returned to the city.He reports a most successful season's work, lle cheese and butter classes having been attended by over a hundred students.In all sowe 300,000 pounds of milk were used.Mr.Ruddick bas great faith in the continued success of the school.Monday was a great day for notices of motions, no less than 46 being given.Amongst them were Mr.Taylor's aliens act of last year and Mr.McCarthy's North West Territories amendment act, which Las been introduced several times before and regularly voted down.\u2018This is the celebrated bill for abolishing dual language and separate schools in the North West Territories.An important deputation of caltle shippers waited on the Minister of Marine aud Fisheries and other Mio.isters on Monday, and asked for a rescinding of the recent Order in Council, by which the space allowed ber bead op the epar deck of steamships transporiiug cattle was reduced from 2 ft.8 inches, to 2 ft.6 inches.Just before adjournment on Monday night the Hoo.Mr.Foster, in reply to a question by Mr.Laurier, inti wated that this change would be wade, and tbe old space of 2 ft.8 inches restored.Controller of Inland Revenue Wood bas given notice of a bill entitled \u201cThe Lamber Inspection Act, 1895\" which provides for the abolition of the present syetem of cutling timber and the supcranuation of all the cul- lers.timber will be brought under the provisions of the general Inspection act, the inspection being optional and not compulsory as al present, In the case of square timber, howe ver, inspection will remain compulsory for two or three years.The reputation of Ayers Sarsavarilla, as & blood medicine, is maintained by daily cures.No one is useless iu this world who lightens the burdens of it for another.If the hair has been made to grow a natural color on bald heads in thonsauds of cases, by using Hall\u2019s Hair Renewer, why will it uot in your case?We attract hearts bv the qualities we display ;
