high abllities and the noble character of Lasker.He said that the present incident showed of what base me Bismarck was moulded.He had ever been a flatterer and sycoobant to royalty, who had never upheld the rights of the people and never lost an opportunity to denounce popular sovereignty.Well might this proud and baughty instrument of despotism seek to shut out American principles from the hearts of the German people.The principles of absolute Imperialism could not withstand the moral power of American frecdom.The committee further reported resolutions cordially reciprocating the wishes

Journal.Mr.Guenther contended that the citizens of the United States were uot in favor of submitting to affronts on its national dignity without resenting them in the most decided manner.He was

standing army there would have been an uprising of Teutonic element and liberty that would be as resplendent in Germany as it was here.Mr.Brumm said the House was placed in the humiliating position of first adopting a resolution endorsing the contemptible and mean acts of the chancellor of German y, and then attempting to place itself right by t- ting on the back those who were insulted by that very endorsement.Mr.Phelps closed the debate by compli- meanting the State Department the Committee on Foreign Relations In preserving the dignity of the House ns had n done, and thought that the members had the right in mutual felicitation to ring down the curtain on this international episode.The resolutions were adopted without division.Representatives of the Postal Telegraph Company

Mr.Gladstone may shortly appeal to the country, as à means of escapé from ttfb many embarrassments of his position.He is not à man who would wish to hold office against the will ot the country, or to carry out in office a policy of which the country disapproves.1t is natural, therefore, that he should desire to know 5 fr.> wre just what the feeling of the countryls.We fear the country was never less prepared with a decided answer than it is today.The complications both of foreign and ot domestic policy very great, and party feeling which is so generally a guide, does not at present run high.Should the House of Commons be dissolved this Spring our éblnion is that it will be anybody's fight.The people do not want a thoroughly Jingo polioy and yet they are not quite content With things astheyare.The fact \\s that the great question.On what principles should England's foreign policy be based?has never been satisfactorily discussed before the pation.There is an \u201c ought\u2019 in the matter; and we believe jthat the man who oan discover the \u201cought\u201d and demonstrate ft will achieve a great success.Most of the trouble in all political questions arises from \u201cthe general tendency to ignore the \u201cought,\u201d + 3, ae, and make everything a matter of expe- Iw the discussion that has arisen respecting the acceptance by Sir Charles Tupper of the office of High Commissioner, the Opposition, it seems to us, are techuically in the right.The office was one to which by law a salary was attached ; and a mere provision in the commission issued to Sir Charles, that he individually was not to receive the legal salary, did not deprive the office of its .character as a paid office, and one the hold- \u201cing \u2018of which, therefore, was inconsistent, with the occupation of a seat in Parlinment.At the same time, it cannot be said that the appointment of Sir Charles tu that offioe was, in any sense, an attack on the independence of Parliament.His standing as a member of the House and his relations to the Government were in no wise affected by it; ana we think the Opposition * might bave been content with calling atten- .the acceptanon of u a AT .- - - a

ahigh-handed way of disposing of the matter.High-handed methods are too much in vogue now-a-days at Ottawa and elsewhere.HOBSES AND HORSES.{you make a point of asking all your friends of gig-keeping respectability how muah it costs to keep a horse, you will be astonished at the disparity of their reply.Phere are horses and horses and there are owners and owners.The Road Committee, bowsever, bas bit upon: à graduated scale which ought to have the fullest publicity.A great many horses are employed in the Road Department and of course the Committee in appropriating money for the keep of the horses under its oontrol has endeavored to do strict jus- tlos between the horses and the citizens.Tha stipends of the steeds seem to be gradu- according to rank rather than seniority because if the age of the City Burveyor's Buoephalus bears the same proportion to the age of the horses in the ranks as his allowance does to theirs he must be considerably older than the City Surveyor.The committee yesterday! resolved to allow $800 per annum for the keep of the City Surveyor's horse.The next in rank is the Drain Inspegtor\u2019s charger, and 8400 per annum was allowed for his keep.Then two horses of a still lower grade, used by the two foremen were allowed $312 per annum each.Then we come to the lowest grade of all, the carter\u2019s horse, the horse, by the way.that does the work.And here we are sorry to say the committee has not given an authoritative and definite opinion on the cost of keeping a horse of this grade, but lumping together the cost of the horse, the cart and the man and his family it has decided that the whole lot can be kept for $1.50 per day.Of course it is not to be ex_ pected that a corporation carter's horse shall live on gilded oats like a City Surveyor's horse, but it is tolerably certain that on an allowance of $1.50 per day either the horse musk be totally unacquainted with oats of any description or he must live much better than his owner and his owner's family.We do not want to see tho City Sarveyor or his staff treated otherwise than liberally, but to allow one man $600 a year for horse keep besides a handsome salary #0¢ his own keop and to pay his subordiuates only $1.50 per day, or say $450 per vear, for Sorso and man, is simply infamous and we hope the Committee will receive an instruc tion from the Council on the subject.Alderman McShane endeavored to secure a little fairer treatment for the corporation.cart- am BY moving that they be paid $1.75 per day from March 23rd until May let, and $2 day from May 1st

A Se We.Tee wages workmen who had families to support.successful have they been in the competition for labor, that many white men had obliged to leave the province, as thou sands had been forced to forsake California, and the number of celestials has inc so fast that there are now 18,000 of them in the province thus consiltuting a e proportion of the entire population.© also asserted that their assimilation with the Caucasian race was impossible, and alnce they never settled permanently in the country, but after remai for a few years invariably returned to their own land, us draining the country of its very lifeblood, thought that the Government should rleld to the repeated requests of the inhabits of British Columbia and pass an act prohibiting, or at least restricting the immigration of the Chinese.r.Shakespeare, after makin, and fairly strong argument wo well to have rested from his labors, but burn- lng with a desire to present every possible objection to the race, he founded his second reason for opposing the unrestricted immigration of Chinese on the ground that they were immoral, forgetting t this objection would apply to a considerable portion of the tide of European immigrants continually pouring into the country.Whatever may be their peculiar and vain tricks, the inmates of the Flowery Kingdom are certainly not lowar in the moral grade than a considerable per- .centage of the population of our country.great proofs of their immorality were that they iinported courtesans from China aud that they were slaves, which was an economic rather than a moral objection.This theory of the slavery of the Chinese in the country is widely believed and is possibly a correct one, although I have been informed by a gentleman, who spent some time im investigating the subject, that he could find nothing to su port it.Mr.Shakespeare, however, asserted that large companies in the leading Chinese cities were in the custom of buying up men at so much per head, and then exporting them to America to work for a certaln number of years, and by these means they were still further enabled to underbid the whites in the competition for labor.Mr.Shakespeare, therefore, urged upon the House the necessity of at once relieving the British Oolumbiens from this \u201cold man of the sen,\u201d which evidently intends to hold on until strangulation ensues.Mr.Gordon also s ke for 8 moment or so, remarking that British Columbia was the dumping this clear, have done round for all the refuse In the Celesti ingdom.As it was approaching six o'clock, Mr.Blake, of Victoria, who has not been in tha House long enough to become well ao quainted with parliamentary procedure, \u2018moved the adjournment of the debate, the effect of which was to put the resolution the foot of the order where it would not run the slightest of being reached again this sesslon.He was fstounded when Informed of the effect of is motion, and_after recess begged the House to wipe off his motion andlits disastrous effects.This desire was acceded to and it was placed at the head of the pubiio bills and orders, and consequently it will come ui on the next private members\u2019 day.It said, however, that the Government bas an intention of appropriating all the remainder of the session to itself, and in this case the discussion has been practically ended.THE GRAND TRUNK RAILWAY BILL.The opposition which has been exhibited towards the Grand Trunk Bill by Hon.Peter Mitchell has certainly had a beneficial effec resuiting in the addition of a number of aneniments the ubject of which is certainly in tho interests of tho ple, Last night, upon the Bill coming up for its third reading, the Minister of Railways announced that he had amended the bill y inserting a provision, obliging the Grand Trunk to apply all money ra by the act first to the double- tracking of the line between Montreal and Toronto and then to the performing the same operation upon other portions of the line, and providing that the expenditure of the money shall be under the supervision of the Government.Sir Charles also announced hig determination of bri down an amendment ;to the consolidated Railway Act of last session, taki away from the Grand Trunk the exclusive power it now enjoys of buying up the stocks and securities of other lines.On the whole, therefore, the country has good reason tor thanking Hon.Peter Mitchell who bas done yeoman's service for the people in this matter.In its amended form the bill passed its third reading, the House rejecting an amendment proposed by Mr.Patterson, of Fasex, rovi that the present act should n any way be regarded as legalizing the fusion botv tho Grand Trunk and the Great Western, that action was not authorized by existing statutes.Mr, Wainwright, who bas been fiying around the capital in a state of nervous excitement for the last week or so, will probably be able to return to Montreal since it is not likely the Senate will amend or discuss the bill much.W THE SEDUCTION BILL.\u2018Mr.Charlton's bill for the punishment ot sbduction has passed the House at last, after of the bitterest and most protracted hts of the session, a motion giving it the months\u2019 hoist being defeated by the Peron majority of five.Mr.Foster with- rew his amendment, which was certain] he most sensible one proposed, aiming at © punishment of any man having sexual fatercourse with a woman by menns of any taock or feigned marriage.Prof.Foster said that he was strongly in favor of the amendment, but at the uest of a number of members who felt that the bill would not pass in its changed condition he had bec nduced to drop it.THE PROHIBITION RESOLUTIONS.\u201cThe consideration of Prof.Foster\u2019s prohibition resolutions than eame up for oconsi- deration, and were seconded by Mr.Fisher the member of Brome, in one of the pea paper, chance 8 delivered in the House this session.Without sessing Prof.Foster's flow of language, he is a much more pleasing 8 xer.He an by enunciating the principle that it wa the y of all governments to make ht easy and wrong difficult.He tted tin tteelf the temperate use of liquor not a crime, but since it was Impossible for temperancs to exist without the most shocking intemperance also, he thought that the country should put an end to both.e appealed to the Parliament to aid the r and weak by emning our national golflahness in this Te spect.Treating of the right of arliament to legislate upon this matter, be quoted from Mill and other great political economists, who had pxprossed an opinion that Government had this power.But we ready adopted the system of prohibiting things harmless in themselves, but which were used by many of our people to their injury.There could he no abstract barm in persons carrying firearms about wi them, yet the vernment bad forbidden it on the ground that these Inatruments were often 1med for 1llégaAl purposes.The action of the Government in pro- biting the sale of liquor between certain hours and upon certain days and in he North-West Territories \u2018had clear- y shown that the Government of thé Gantry bad recognized tent of rohibltion.\u201cAnother objentios CIR rn œuse a great of rovenhe to the countrv.dut the Boeaker Grand the country.He asked for the passage of Hquor traîiie would not the long run injure th revenue.The amount + y _reoel was $5,000,000, but it cost $20,000 to collect ft.Some.asserted {hat these resolutions sbould not ba passed unt! there was a majority of the pie uuconditionally In favor of them, but he thought that the best way to oducate the people in this direction would be to pass the prohibitive laws first.He contended that these laws had an educative influence on the people wherever they bad prought in force.It been uni- f y found ia all countries where these experiments had been tried that the crime and immorality of a country de- cre exactly as the Hquor traffic was restrained.He itbought it was inconsistent for the Government by precept to advocate temperance, while by other acts they legalized and thus made respectable the sale of intoxicating liquors.The statementthat'prohibition does not prohibit 80 often put forward by opponents to measures of this nature was shown to be entirely unfounded by extensive quotations from e slatements of the governors of prohibitive states and other persons well calculated to form an intelligent judgment on this question.Pointing out that although it was not as suocessful as it was thought it would be, it had an undoubtedly good ef- foct upon the morals of the people.This exactly coincided with his own experience in the county of Brome, in which the Dunkin act had been enforoed for years, and which had been benefited by the existence of this law although it had not accomplished all that had ne of it.With the question of the injury done to health by the use of Hquors he would not touch upon, because it was a debatable subject among, medical men, but he forced home to.the House the assertion that the trafflo seriously interfered with and greatly injured the working qualities of tho nation, and was conducive to the waste of the material of the country.Mr.Ames, a manutacturer, of Massachusetts, had stated that 25 total abstalners could do 8 per cent more work than 28 drinkers could in the same length of time.He read statements bearing upon this matter from the Chief of Police in Montreal and,others, all of whom supported his contention.In closing, he stated that although the House might throw out, with a sneer and a laugh, these resolutions, he felt confident that the sentiment of prohibition was gradually growing in the country, and at a futureday the House would be forced to pass a prohibitive bill.Mr.Armstrong then moved the adjournment of the debata, and it will come up again next Wednesday, NOTES.The committee on privileges and elections will meet to-morrow to consider Sir Charles Tupper\u2019s case.The Senate will adjourn to-morrow till the follo Wednesday, on account of Tuesday being a holiday.The divorce bill freeing John Graham, of this city, from ail matrimonial bonds passed ita third reading in the House yesterday; and as it has already passed the Senate, it only roquires the assent of the Governor- General to become law.There was a divi- slon, of course, the Catholics voting dead against it, but the majority in favor of the measure was 28.The excitement about the Toronto Railway conspiracy is still unabated, but has rather n increased by the assertion that documents had been found on * Big Push \u201d Wilkinson incriminati Senator Macpherson.That gentleman refused to see a reporter esterday but last night he gave an authori- tive denlal in the Senate to the statement that be had been mixed up with the transac- tien.' Be had had nothing whatever to do Mr.Gault yesterday presamted a petition ainst Sir Leonard Tifleys Bill to modify the application of the Consolidated Insurance Act of 1879.The petition sets forth the undesifability of permitting co-operative or assessment associations to transact the business of Life Insurance unless they are compelled to obtain a license and deposit as regular Insurance Companies, and asks that the petitioners be allowed to be heard in committee on the bill.The petition is signed by the Sun Life Assurance Company, Standard Life Insurance Company, London Assurance Company, Liverpool, London & Globe Company nfederation Life Company, and the U.S.Life Insurance Company.The special committee on agricultural industries, appointed on motion of Mr.Gigault, has so far held ten meetings.It has taken a large amount of evidences, and in reply to the series of questions which it sent out to all parts of the Dominion has reccived so far 284 replies, from Ontario 144; Quebec 6u French; 29 English; New Brunswick 17, Nova Scotia 34.Of these 210 were in favor of the establishment of an experimental farm and 48 against it; for the appointment of an entomologist, 162, and 78 against ; for the establishment of a central bureau, 191, and 42 against; for the establishment of a statistical department of the cultural department, 171, and 44 against; in favor of the tssue of handbooks, reports and monthly bulletins, 183, and 39 agalnat.Mr.J.A.Wilkinson, who has lately been distinguishing himself in Toronto by his Investigation of the accommodation given to risoners in the Toronto jails, had his name rought up in the House last night when Mr.D.M.Cameron asked whether he had been in the employ of the Government for the last three years.8ir Charles replied that in October, 1852, he was appointed as a land surveyor to do occasional work in Central Ontario.Since that time be has drawn $4,181 from the Government for services and expenses.At present, Sir Charles said, he was oly employed when his services were requi This last remark caused first a few eatirical \u201chear hears\u201d from the Opposition; then they began to snicker and finally broke into a roar of ironical lnsughtor, which was echoed from the Conservative side by Sir John and Sir Charles.The common Impression that Algoma is a rocky and barren tract of country was shown last night to be an erroneous one by Mr.Dawson, who moved for the return of all reports, not hitherto published, relating to the character and probable resources in agricultural lands, forests, and minerals of the country through which the Canadian Pacific Railway is being constructed north of Lakes Huron aud Superior.From personal acquaintance with the region, and from information obtained from most authentic sources, he asserted that the country, from the great lakes to James\u2019 Bay, was fertile and capable of settlement and cultivation.It also has valuable mineral resources, while its torests alone were estimated at being worth about $150,000,000.The rivers were also magnificent ones, navigable for miles, flowing through primeva forests.Mr.Frow, Mr.Peter White, Mr.Cockburn, Dr.Sproule, and Mr.O'Brien also spoke, supporting Mr.Dawson's assertions.THE DOMINION ABATTOIR.Action to be Taken Against the City.At the adjourned annual moeting of the shareholders of the Dominion

friends, and the blessings of those who had given sweet Katherine Gordon to the wildest and most rockless of a hard, uncanny race of proud aristocrats.The girl had pleaded and prayed against jauce, but Malcolm Gordon was a stern man with his children, and when the proud oung Sir Godfrev Iredale, heir to.he ancient castle and noble estates of Ash- bourne, asked tor the hand of Katherine, his only daughter, he would hear no argu ments, but flung authority into the scale with Bir Godfrey's uncompromising passioh for the girl; and thus it came to pass that the portionless maiden and tbe master of Ashbourne, with its broad acres nourished: bythe sea,its crowds of servants, and ite old Norman castle, wero made man and wife.And now, the nuptial ceremony hav- concluded in the village.church, the bridal party prepared to attend the wedded pair to the house, where a sumptuous feast and revel were tobe held in honor of the lovely mistress of Aah- 1 roe.Sir Godfrey felt that the un pretentious home and meagre entertainment which alone could be furnished by Katherine's rents would be unfitting the dignity af is wife, and all \u201cthe best families whole eountry-side had been bidden to welcome Sir Godfrey's bride to her future home in the ancestral of the Iredales of Ash- bourne.It was a miserable, gloomy dar and a { almos! dense fog from the sea had made as dark as night as the

a dismal prison-house of all pale despairs, and its sumptuous state a heavier burden for her tender soul than any toil or sorrow that poverty, with freedom and peace of mind, could have for her.Such were her dreary thoughts as the care riage rolled swiltly along, far in advance of all the less magnilicent equipages, the dense.dark wood.ue The sound of the rapid wheels was scarce ly audible on the soft sand of the road, and in the silence Katherine could almost hear the beating of her frightened heart, and'her band lay cold asstoue in the ionate clasp of her husband, who in his selfish gladness took no notice of his bride's reserve.She belonged to hitn now-that was enough!

\u201cThis question of salary and carter hire,\u201d replied Ald.Laurent, \u201crests altogether with \"the City Surveyor.Not long ago sooner than increase the salary of the carters we first doubled their numbers which is just as profitable, as we get mure work done.I am not ainst increasing a mall's salary, but in such cases it is not pecessary, they do not complain themselves and abhould we offer to raise their salaries we would be running in opposition to uther contractors, and the consequence would undoubtedly be that the road departinent woull be continually besieged by carters applying for work, which is not at all desirable.TWENTY-FOUR O'CLOCK.New System of Counting Time.Mr.Roper, now staving at the Windsor Hotel, is agent for the Springfield, HL, Watch Company, and is here with the inteu- tion of introducing the new svstem of counting the hours on clocks and watches up to 24 o'clock.He intends wore partioulariy to solicit the custom of the railroads 1n Canada.The dial is not larger than that of any ordinary watch, but it has two marked circumferences, one inside the other and above the \u2018outer on the minutes are indicated.Twenty-four o'clock is midnight, which is at the top rentre of the dial, then to the right one o'clock on the outer circumference and each hour following alternately in the two circumferences.A second hand is at the bottom of the dial.The idea is to do away with an am.and pm.and it is considerea this will be A great advantage, particularly to railway and telegraph companies.The Pennsylvania Railroad company Aare pow seriously- eonsider- ing the new system, and two companies in the South have already adopt- edit.If universally taken into use, it may at tirst cause a little confusion, but that would be got over in time.By deducting 12 from the new time, it will always give the hour as It is now indicated.At the annual meeting of the American Society of Civil Engineers, held lately at New York, the feasibility of adopting the twenty-four hour sya- ten was brought forward and tavorably discussed.It was well received by a large number of the members present, and will again be discussed by them later on.The entarprisin peuple of the States are y making use of the new system of time as a novel means of advertisement.A store in Cincinnati states that it will open at seven o'vlock and close at eighteen o'clock, and a doctor in Norwich, Conn.instead of being in from 1 to 3, states that he will be found in his office from 13 to 15 o'clock.Perhaps before long places of amusemrnt in this city will advertise in their bandbills tor doors to be opened a 19, performance to commence precisely at ANOTHER BAD SHOWING.Large Decrease in Railway Receipts, \u2018The receipts ot the (irand Trunk and the Canadian Pacitic Railways for last week show another large decrease as compared with the same period last vear.Those of the Canadian Pacific Railway from all sources for the week ending March 14th were $46,000 against $53,000 in the corresponding period of last year, being a ecrease of $7,000.The number of miles of track constructed lis 2,033, which is 881 more than tor the Rame time in 1883.The decrease in the receipts is attributed to the general dullness in freights and also to the great delays consequent on the exten sive snowstorms the past week.The recoipta of the Grand Trunk Railwey for the week ending March 15th, were $304 - 4 ang for the same period in 1843, $3749 - 342, shtywing 8 decrease of $38 39%.The number of passengers conveyed during the same time was 60,983 againat 70,543 last ear.The following is the aggregate traffic or the past eleven weeks: pceipts, 1 884, $3,286,730;

Lieutenants Engelke, Dennison and Virtue of the 6th Fusiliers: Lieuts.Ibbotson, Miller and Gault of the Fifth Royal Bcots, and Lieutenant Hay of the Argenteuil Rangers.No explanation was given for stopping the examination,and the fact that the examination for the Sixth District took place at the Brigade Office to-day only served to increase the general surprise and heighten thw disappointment of those who presented themselves for examination.Several prominent militia officers spoken to in regard to the matter to-day expressed decided disapproval of the action of the authorities in the matter.One being asked if he thought there would be any examination for the Fifth District, replied that if there is not.the reason will have to be fully explained unless the militia department wants the finest brigade in the Dominion to fall to pieces.The examinations for the 6th District were under the charge of Lieut.-Col.Harwood, D.A.G., and Lieut.-Col.Hughes, B.M.The following candidates presented themselves fur examination :\u2014Capts.Desrivieres, Pré- vost, Roy.Lieuts.Ethier, Doherty, Beauset, Jowell, Villeneuve, Stearns, Destroismaisons, ixty-Fifth Battalion;

Report of Chief Patton and the Fire Alarm Superintendent, The Chief of the Fire Brigade has just completed his annual report, from which we find among other things that there were fewer false alarms during 1883 than for some years past, ouly tive being recorded.There were fourteen fires outside the city liniita to which the brigade were called, but at five of which only were their services required.There were three fires on steamboats and vessels and one on a steamboat in the canal.Although there were several serious fires still there was no loss of human life.Several of the members of the brigade, nowever, received severe injuries in the hazardous duties of their calling.Two articles of great utility were added during the year to the apparatus ot the brigade,viz : the Haves ladder and the swinging harness.The length of serviceable hose now In use was 11,843 feet all in good order.In this line, however, the department fear they would be short for a change of hose, especially in Winter, in cases where large fires gucosed each other.They therefore recommend the advisability of purchasing a few thousand feet more.he steain engines were used at only four fires, as the pressure frorh the hydrants was generally suflicient to meet requirements ; these steam engines werk Dow in good work order.The chiet alsp calls the attention of the committee to the Cbabolllez square station declaring it to be too small, inconvenient and unhealthy.The amount expended by.the department was $56,509.38.The largest umber of fires occurred in 8:.Antuine Yard, viz., 43, followad by St.Ann's Ward with 36 alarms.Saturdays and Sundays were the two greatest tire days, 48 fires occurring on the former day, and 38 on the latter.The report of Mr.Badger, fire alarm superintendent, which was appended, showed that three new signal boxes for private companies had been placed during the year and a signal line had been extended to Hoche- laga.In concluding his report Mr.Badger declared that the present meagre facilities of the department for the use of the telephone service have shuwn It to be an important auxiliary to the fire alarm.He therefore asks that an appropriation be made in order to connect all the stations with the ceutral fire alarm ottice.TOURNAI EPISCOPAL EMBROGLIO.The Belgian Government Weakening\u2014It releases Mr, Goodhue's Documents, It appears nsif the Belgian \u2018tovernment had at last realized how unjustitiable were the proceedings adopted on its behalf against Mr.H.W.8.Goudbue, of this city, in connection with the celebrated Tournai episcopal embroglio, and I= desirous to a certain extent at least, of making amends for.the numerous indignities heaped upon the young Cavadian barrister.It will be remembered that in 1882, ai the time of Mr.Goodbue's arrest, a pumber of important papers and other valuables which were found upon bis person were seized by the authorities at Brussels.Upon his release Mr.Goodhue denwsnded that these articles should be returned, which request was refused in the most.peremptory manner.Subsequently an application was made by Mr.Goodie through his legal adviser, tben Nr.Prins, for their return.Mr.Prins has now written Mr.GGoodhue stating that the Atwrony-General of Belgium, after first informing him that the proceedings instituted by tbe Belgian Government Against Mr.Goodhue, were only suspended, and not withdrawn, has now delivered over all the papers and valuables, and declared thata nollie prosequi has been entered on behalf of the Government.This pction of the Attorney-General will of course place Mr.Goodhue\u2019s case against the Belgian Government ina much better positioli, and gives him a first rate prima - facie ation for damages.SALE INTERRUPTED.Seizures at Mr Hugh Craig's Residence\u2014An Action of Damages Follows, Mr, Hugh Craig, father of Messrs.Thos.and Goo.W, Craig, had announced tho sale of his ferniture which was to take place at his residence, this morning.when at 7 a.m.two ures were made upon the goods by creditorb of Geo.W.Craig.Mr.Baxter being offered ns guardian to these seizures was accepted and things seemed to be settled for the moment, when @ tbird_ seizure was Affect- ea by\u2019 Messra Hughes & Stevenson, lumbert.They having refnaeeto accept Mr.Baxter ifs guardian, application was made before Hpn.Mr.Justice Mathieu to force them to do so, and the Application was granted.: It Is alleged, however, that notwithstanding this formal order from the Court, Mn.Baxter was refused admittance from Hughes & Stevenson's balliff, and Meeers.G Mr.Ha & Co, attorneys for , have: 1 Consequence en an of damages for $3, against the Hughes & Stevenson.dsome figu for the furms and stock they left behind ) DAL.[oot curbed stimet money A KING ON HIS 1RAVELB \u2019 (Bpecial to The Star) Lowpox, March 20.\u2014Tho Maoëi King will sail for Engiand via San Francisco on April 1st.\u2014 PATENT MEDICINES.(Special to The Siar.)

but as the general feeling of the Commitiee was that the time was too sbort, Mr.Mulock withdrew the bill upon the Minister of Railways assuring him that he would submit & measure deali with this and other inconveniences ca to travellers by trains.THE SOUDAN WAR.Osman Digna\u2019s Flight\u2014General Gordon Dis.appointed\u2014Eenewal of Wariike Opers- tions.Stax, March 20.\u2014Spies report that Osman Digna with a few followers, has fled to the interior.His flight is attributed to the reward offered for his capture.Slaves are deserting him and fleeing to Suakim.GORDOR'S DISAPPOINTMENT.Paris, March 20\u2014Figaro publishes the following, dated Cairo, March 20: General Gordon has told the French Consul at Khartoum that he is disappointed in what be has been able to accomplish, and that it will be impossible for him to defend the place against the advancing tribes.It is stated in Cairo that Abdel Kader, Minister of War, will be sent to General Gordon's rescue.RENEWAL OF WARLIKE OPERATIONS.SCAKIM, March 20.\u2014It is now reported that Osman Digna has summoned the tribes to arrange for a renewal of warlike operations.Admiral Hewett has withdrawn his proclamation offering a reward for Osman.CABLE.AN ADMIRAL DEAD.LONDON, March 20 \u2014Admiral Lessoffoky, Cominander of the Russian squadron which gave aid to the Northern States during the civil war, is dead.FRANCES INDEMNITY.Paris, March 20.\u2014France is disposed to submit to arbitration the question of the amount of indemnity to be paid her by China on account of expenses incurred by her in Tonquin.ITALIAN MINISTRY RESIGNED.Ro March 20.\u2014The Italian ministry has resigned because Signor Coppinlo, their candidate for the presidency of the Chamber of Deputies, was elected yesterday by a narrow majority only.DISCONTENT IN SPAIN.MADRID, March 20.\u2014The Government is stddying measures by which to end the present discontent among the surplus army cflicers, amounting to 15,000, who are dissatisfied with the miserable pay they receive.RUSSIAN HOPES ROUBED.LoNDoN, March 20.\u2014The reported intention of England to address America in regard to the making of dynamite, has roused the hopes of Russian advocates of international interference with the manufacture of explosive materials.A BEVERE CRITICISM.Loxbox, March 20.\u2014The News says: * Never since the days of Bolingbroke England seen a great party so unscrupulous apd unpatriotic as the Opposition, which takes everyadvantage of the difficuities of the Government, and allies itself with the cause or party which promises to embarrass the Cabinet.\u201d LORD DERBY'S VIEW.Loxpon, March 20.\u2014At a club dinner, last evening, Lord Derby remarked that it would perhaps have been better if England had never intorvened in Egyptian afinirs.The establishment of a sound condition in that country had required a longer time than had been expected.Events had been more powerful than men.THE TONQUIN SETTLEMENT.Paris, March 20.\u2014After the capture of Hung Hoa, the French will fix the western frontier of Tonquin, nt Tuan Kuan, which is now held by the Blick Flags.The Black Flags will be allowed to retain all the towns from Tuan Kuan to Lao Kal, on condition that they will guarrantee the free navigation of the upper Bong Kal.The northern frontier of Tonquin wil] extend from Phu- lang Thuong, to Tuan Kuan, via Phu Binh and Phu Dusnhi.AMERICAN, THE CUBAN REFUGEES.BosTox, March 20.\u2014The Cuban refugees brought here by the brig \u201cScreamer\u201d will probably be released to-day.The officers are antisfied they are simply travellers.;

The rocced- ToroNTo, Ont, March 20.\u2014 p in the Committee on Frivileges and Elections, thià mo: , over the bribery case, were rendered interesting by the examination of Mr.McKim, the recipient of thousand dollars from Wilkinson.WeKim's examination was ther in its Boba.pecu short-comings than in anything else.He gave particulars of the approaches made to him by Wilkinson, which, however, added nothing of interest to what baa already been published except that he acted all through with the cognizance in particu lar of Mr.Pardie, Commissioner of Crown ds.Mr.McKim also admitted that he had actually signed a round robin to vote against the Mowat Ministry.Pur- ther than this his evidence did not go, as it is believed that McKim bad an interview or interviews with Mr.Bunting.There is a food deal of speculation as to wh the ts did not come out.The wi ness was not even asked whether he bad ever seen Bunting.It is possible that the Government are awakening to the fact that they are exposing their band too much at present and are reserving something for a later time.The committee, after the conclusion of McKim\u2019s examination, adjourned till to-morrow morning.THAT ROUND ROBIN.Mr.McKim's admission that he actuslly signed a round robin, agreeing to vote against Mowat, is stirring up enquiry as to the possible existence of such a document.To defeat the Government, seven votes were needed ba the Opposition.As alreadv made clear, cKim, Balfour and Dowling actually received money, or what was cer- to money.\u2018The question now asked 18: Were other four members appproached, and if so who were they?t were approached looks view of the fact that certain persons who were on the inside of the conspiracy were willing to bet money that the Government would be defeated on Monday night.If that is 80, they must have been assured that seven reform members had been ot at.It was even said last night that seven members in all been The possibility, therefore, is that there are Reform members implicated, who, if hit on, will not be able to say, like McKim, Balfour and Dowling, that they were acting under the instructions of the Government.BAILED OUT.A further turn was given to the case this morning by the granting of an application by Judge Galt at Osgoode Hall for bail by kland and Wilkinson.Bail was given in $4,000 sureties of $2,000 each.made affidavit stating that he had never offered money or bribes ot any kind to any members of the Legislature, but that, on the contrary, Mr.McKim had approached him in the matter, and after several interviews with him on the timber question bad deliberately firen him (Kirkland) to understand that McKim would do what he could to forward Kirkland's interests in the Legislature if Kirkland would \u201cCome down.\u201d FURTHER DEVELOPMENTS EXPECTED.There are indications that the developments yet to come in the extraordinary case will exceed in interest even those out already.The STAR'S correspondent was 1nformed bra prominent Con- resvative that stranger things might haopen than the arrest of Attorney General Mowat himself and others of the government.The fact is, said he, that Mowat's attack was so sudden and effective as fairly to demoralize the victims, and there have been other circumstances preventing effective action being taken by the accused so far.It is a curious thing that there Is scarcely an effective Conservative constitutional lawyer within reach just at the moment.There ls a feeling that Mowat himself ean be reached for conspiracy to induce fraud, and if so be will be reached sooner or later.A BOON TO CANADIANS.[Special to The Star.)
