There was an ,aorirnony and a .sii,zdence in the tone of the Minister Of Einance (who usually looks as mild as a ,lamb) that was quite extraordinary. I am • sorry that the Minister of Railways ii3 not • in his seat, as I mean to say something regarding his attitude also. He set up as • the second of the Minister a Finance, and netually spent two whole hours in abusing • the menabers on this side of the House, the only alleged fault that 13rougl4 such, • heavy.'punishment being ' the charge that the Minister of Finance . was occasionally •in the habit• of using indifferent grammar, and because of that charge we have these, two hours of what I shall not dignify by oalling invec- tive, for it was not worthy of the name, but what I can only designate as one long, bitter, coarse scold, which may best be described by a couplet from Bret Hart° : quoted no hymn, and he uttered no psalm, Be opened his mouth and he roughly said d -n. ,lify hon. friend the Minieter of Finance Was 'good enough to go out of . his way, in.rather 'sai undignified fashion, I must say, in order. A/o -attack myself and some other members of the late Administration. Now, sir;I am 'disposed to -night tbdefend my Adnainistra, tion„ -and show that the policy I adopted • vitatuone which 'I believe to be for. the interests of the country, Sir, 1 dqny that • there was anyigiaonainy attending my defeat stal that of my colleagues.

'It- was our duty oleo, 'sir; and our desire particularly to • extend the doniain of' civilizatien, in the Northwest.. EvekY . one who knows 'Canadian. history , knowe.. that. for the last twenty-five years there has been, a steady fight on the part �f .the Liberal. • party of Ontario and Quebec to obtain pee- •--session-of ..that territory 1, havenbserVed,' , alsci in the coarse -of the debate that hon.. gentlemen -opposite are not at all ashamed of the proceedings of last session; •that . they are, still prepared to defend„ as the, bestpossible- thing that could be clOne,•or • that . ever was done, the .rejection of..the lower offer of one company and the accept- ance of the higher offer .of• another for the. building of the Pacific . Reilcvay. .„ The policy of the late Administration was this,: We believed the bargain entered MM. with. British Columbia was ariaost improvident -and unwise one, that it was one inapoSeibla • of execution, that even if it were possible' to execute it ,it would . not be fair to the other Provinces to do so at that time and. in that manner, and we endeavored honestly and faithhillyto get the•terms redteed,and we succeeded in getting them ,reduced. But in the. meantime we held anbelieved that it was exceedingly desirable, though not absolutely necessary, to obtain as early an entrance into the country as possibleby rail, and we lost no tinae after • acceding to, office in getting work commenced at two • points: between Fort William ..and Red River. '.1 say in regard to the Paces:01194, way that we lo,eated the line ,entirelY. to' Red River from:Fart :William.. and we located the line entirely fthm. Selkirk west- ward to the mouth of the ,Fraser'at. Port Bloody, and except what the Syndicate has net made,: our location. has been entirely: followed. All through Columbia.theexact line surveyed byus. has. been aecepted.hy,, the present Administration. 'The ether, part' we had reedy for them to heginlinthi, • is accepted. and -finished, that . is, between Bat Portage and English River. . Soinstead of our policy being barren it was taost tircl.;• duotive, and was carried:out With auoh regard for econ.oray that. no one can this moment ,charge .as 'with. wantonly , or uselessly epending a single of the' public money., .Speaking the acquisition of the Northwest caontry,-40 earlras 1852. the late Mr. Brown,,duriagfirSt. session of Parliament and.,.'whoif,'beginning his leadership of the Reform 'perty„.propoSed a. resolution in the Hmise for the acquisi- tion of that territory, thus showing most conclusively with whom rested the -glory, if. it be a glory, and. I think it is, of having banished an odious.monopelyfromthe face, of the continent, and made the country fit to be occupied by a civilized people. .My hon. friend beside me say a the country has now. got into the hands Of another monopoly. That is very true, and it is a matter deeply to • be.' regretted. Let -me say this: Daring the elections Of, • September, 1878,1 am sure there wae ' no lack of abundant declarations of policy on our part to indicate preoisely what is- the , line we intended to follow. We declined to acpept anything looking in -the direction - of proteotion. We said we had already a 'revenue tariff of 17/ per cent.;which afforded a very' large .protection.to manu- facturer, and I knew then, and I know now, that that did afford a Eiufdoient pro- tection to nearly every legitimate interest. 4, I was very much astonished. a few nights ago when the hon. Member • for West Mon- treal assured me and the House that he had not obtained 3 per'oent. upon his investments in cotton manufactories duce . the_present Government came into power. As my information • on this . point is very different from the hon. gentleman's -'experience,- I shall pro., pose in the Course of a feW, days to ask • the House to allow me to get Lt. committee of inqairy into the distressed'condition of the cotton manufacturers, and in that com- mittee I hope we will -obtain the evidence • that the hon gentleman is prepared to give to show the wretched condition .in which the trade is even now, and the fatuity of .those people. whoare going on building cotton factories all over the country as fast • as it is possible to inveet money in brick and lime. The bon: gentleman claim that • the, vast amount of • nioneY. ,which • he • • PeetlelieeS as Finance Minister haeheen the •relltIlt Of hie Vacationist . Policy. NoW ,e I am delighted that we are • able to congratulate the Finance Minister and each, . otheron the prosperous state of the country. • I am glad. to be able to Bay that I have seen abundant evi- dence of the plosperity myself in all parts off the country... But, sir, I am also bound to say, and every hon. gentleman opposite will be bound in his heart toacknowledge, that we owe all that prosperity not to the machination or the .tricks of a politician, bub to the abundant resourceeprovided by an all-powerful l'revidence, Why, air, the hen., ,gehtlerhan mustlmow that no money is te. be made by taxing a clasti otthe community. Protection means protection to some parti- .cular industry, to Some particular class of the cOmnannity,' and if one class be, pro- tected it must be at the expense of all the other classes, end if all elaasee of the emu - try are protected alike,. then all are made- pcierer by the 13°0 of enforcing that protpoOon on the country.' That is the. theory of protection; and I defy any person to give it any other color. One hon. gentle- man opposite (I think it was the Minister of Customs) said the other day that he. °be served from -a .speech or mine that I was prepared to kill the manufacturers "off by inches, Sir,.I Said in my speech delivered, at Lariabton a Pew weeks ago, that we were accused Of a determination, ifwe should succeed at the coming elections; of return- ingat Once to the tariff WhichWe ourselves had in operation. What I said was that no • ,politician, no statesman, no Minister,d9uld honestly disregard theinterests that may have been created,and that while there 'must of necessity be a return at seine time to f3ound Principles of -fiscal legislationthat. return weeld have to be Considered in con- nection withthe interests's° created. But, sir, if the hon. gentleman will look baOk he will•find.declarations of mine of 'a similar .character years before. • In my address to the electors of. Hamilton in January, 1874, Itook.precisely the same ground.. I believe a number of my ' hon. friends around me have givq,n• a Similar -utterance to their vieweCn thislUbjeot. We-ha:Ye a.firin be- lief that thelariffthat is in -existence now, or any protective tariff, Must neCesserily, be ultimately'4 a serious mischief to: the country., Proteotion can legislate inoney out of one -set of phoketainto anotherset�f PocketaL-but4, how is capital created except by nindlistrY..?

This Was the eouree,, sir yhioi the. Government' pursued, and •, in • . defence :of tffat. principle the Giiirernment. 'went to the election. We .Wdre badly beaten. I regret: that extremelyfor the sake -of the principle itivolved,„but I have notreason to regret it on personal grounds: Proteption, as a sys- tem; is a relic Of barbarism ., There should be free trade in goods ae,Vvell: as in , lend. lf the deficit :Could- 'havebeen removed Without taxation nO doubt the lite Adminis- tration' would, have. done it. But they, did not believe that the Method. of giving relief driting.-a-Teried---of-deep-depression and - deficiency, of 'crep Was to tax the people. Now, sir, the ctrcumstances of the coontry after the ,.;'accession `orlioa. gentlemen opposite were 'favorable to any Govern-, ment; and. no Government can possibly providea remedy for bad crepe, . and no Goveinnient pen' 'destroy the beneficent influenoe �f good crops.- We never can purchase,goode 'unless...we sell goods.

This be the 'result that Will' _be :reached by the policy of hon. gentlenien opposite within a very few years.. The hon. 'Finance Min- ister,. however, says that • hie policy has given . bread to, the workiiignian, that his policy hag given abundant work tethe Work- ingman. • It is true, Sir, that we see.in one quarter that •the Workingmen., are to get . the 'same wages • that they •, get , in, 1877-78.. . Itis. true the hon. gentleman,' in his, lit of new factories Mentioned a few daye ago, -and iiiiallY laid on he table of the House, ,in- cliidee manufaetories that are not new at all. The moment I looked at the list I.saw one put downas 'a new manufactory,. in Toronto, with • 200 .hands employed, although it Was only one moved from the village of Neweastle bet:tat/Se' they believed they pould earry, on their business more profitably in that city.

We Well knovir also 'how much has, been. spent Ma capital -account after the late Gov- erment lied' closed the eapital account. We find they are asking votes or account- ing for Votes to the sum of about 51,000,000 that is charged to Oapital account,that the late Administration. would have charged to revenue account. • Itis a very easy Matter, almost as easy aS the method of the hon. gentleman frem Niagara, Of striking a 'bal- ance When the sum got e too large for capital account. The Ancreatict in the Indian subsidies semis to me t� be most alarming The, MirtiEiter,',ot-Railways is .not in his, place, • and I will defer some remarks which 1 proPose to make about another topostpone to a future occasion: But .before sitting down: I 'have, to say this, that while hon. gentlemen opppsite will obtain, from me every 'fair Play in every matter connected with the Estimates, I shall criticize closely and carefully the various expenditures which • I deem to be; inconsistent , with the , grourd they have taken and the promises they have made to the country: The. hon. Meni- ber for Niagara said that we rushed, into the censtructlen of thePacifte Railv,eay when we were not called on to do it. I take no -such views of the obligations we were forced into in. conneotiOn with the British Colurabia bargain:.That bargain was made by the Government, and althoUghimprovi- dently made, I felt, as a Minister sworn to do what was right for the country; that I was bound, and my colleagoes felt-, the sarne;to give effectio that treaty as far mit was, possible for Into do so consistent With the, 'burden o'f taXationthat was to be imposed on the people.. The ccintraots on the whole ' of the • canal's were let when we entered office; that, is- On. ;the 'Welland' Canal, the Lachine Canal, , and the canals on the Ottawa River. 'These embraced an ban:tense expenditure of money,. ILO less than 143,800,000 for canals; between $10,000,000 and 112,000,000 for the Inter - colonial Railway, no less than 530,000,000 for the Pacific Railway; 5200,000 for finish.' ing the railways in the Lower Provinces': .A2;600,000 for the Prince Edward Island Railway; $4,500,000 for • minor works ; 52,500,000 „for 'improvements on. •the St.' Lawrence, where there were no lecke, and 'S1,000,000 -for advances.,' All. these oblige- tionshad to be met. : We .might he called to' account for proceeding with any �f them ' too; fast, but we .did not proceed With any of them, that is the canals, faster than we believed the public interests -required. I am net at.. all eertain now that , the policy was ,. a while one, ofentering on a great enlargement • of the ,. Welland Canal. It was net our policy, but •we followed it up. Tke plan was the plan ,of hon, gentlemen opposite; and take My full , share Of responsibility .for that, as a simple Membered the Legislature; although • not supporting the gpvernineat at thq time. We . find, :sir, that ' although the Welland Canal is constructed with locks 270 feet icing :and 45 feet wide; there is' not at this ,nionient one 'single Vessel': building . for traffic through that •canal, though. it. is bout finished, so rauch Of the freight being carried' on railways thatit beoomes, excee.d- .ingly doubtful whether, any of -the, canals, of „the. country will, ever payAny,reVenue again.

Dr. G. D. F.

The lady was the daughter of Mr. Andrew Robertson, pro- prietor of Blackwells Estate, iietir that town, who. was so popular that he was elected three times Provost of Dingwall. The accomplished and fascinating • Miss Anne Robertson gained the affections of Mr. John Gladstone, of Liverpool, whose lirst wife was dead, and Was married to him in 1800. She gave birth to a fourth son, on December 294h, • 1809, William Ewart." Park House is a very old building itt, Dingwall, and still belongs, we believe, hithe_Gladetone family.
