Mr Howland then opened the budget. He
made • three buses speech, ening u ful: and
eear exposition of the fianc,al a(! ire of the
province. He opened by reworking that he
had adopted • neo mode 01 bringing dowu the

from the fact that • third of the year how
expired before the House voted the apply.
Moreover, if there were a deficiency now it
hod to be met from the whole year's expen-
sed, but the Goverueseutcould .only increase
the revenue for about half the year. He then
proceeded to explain the carmates, det tiling
the iucresaes aid decreases of the expendi-
ture for the current year. They were 1u m-xt
particulars the same ■s given last night. 1t
wan writ neoesaary, he said, to ask $100,000
for the Ottawa buildings iceaddiuua to the
appropriation of last year. A consider able
slurs of the militia expenses woad not be
nedwsser, again for five years. Tae Seiguur
is* Tenure redemiption could equal the Wy-
went of that debt The total +-eduction in the
expenditme as comperedwith let year res
$991,309. Of the &me.uat proposed to to ex
tended this year $1,227,464 would he out of
previous appropriations andel the following
heetle:=Geological survey, $7.600; balance
for militia, $152,575; arm, agriculture and

roots and bridges, $21,520: Indian aonuties,
$8,000; capital ot'the Seignonal Fund $261,
562; additional Capital 01 Seiguoriul Fund,
8116,110. He then went on to speak of the
estimated income for the year. Receipts from
cest0ms, irrespective of changes which might
be proposed, he estimated at 45,421.740;
from excise, under the present laws. $845,
146 ; from public works irrespective of the
re -imposition of tolls, $305,758• and from
other sources of revenue, including .1..1.,..
tare. and the redemptirnof debt. $7,313.250.
which included 14,192,000 redemption of
debt. The estimated total income under the
present laws at I3,H85,$98,'and the exuendi-
ture at $15,672,48e,1eaving a deficiency to be
provided for of $1.786.582. He entered
Into an argument to show that the revenue of
the county had not kept pace with its growth
in population and products. It wasneeasay
therefore to devise new means re increasing
the ravenhe in Coder to meet the espnediture
w ithout contracting more debt In stating
the measures he in*ended to propose to meet
that deficiency he auumed that the trade of
the country the year would not he ler than
last, except perhaps in one article, Tet, in
which event the duties from the customs
emelt- 11e $844,827 :over last year. TO a
seise from the fact that the specific duties im-
posed last year would be brought into open
non tbroughont the ebole year, whereas last
year these were only in opeestioo about sex
mond*. He estimated that he would obtain
from excise an increase of 8664,451 without
any change in dunes From the Public
Works he expected an increase a $217,061
wittiest tolls. He proposed increase 01 duties
spon some articles, ape n which heproposed
levying excise, expecung to derive therefrom
$75,000. He proeetuled to stet. that he pro.
posed to rem .Il ousting pars relating to

Mr. Galt and the speech of the Fin•nee

termination was arrived at in causes no

Opposition feel that it is now or never
with them, and they me determined to
make one desperate effort for power and
patronage. We doubt very much the
wisdom of the course pursued by the Op-

tam u they may, they must appear be-

Ascent.
Mr. James Olashier, who lut year made
eight trigs Into the upper atmosphere, where
he reached • mutt higher elevation than had
been attained before, has resumed his opera-
tions the present Spring. One ofthe prin-
cipal objects.o.ght to them celes*idi excur-
sions hne been to determine the law of de
crease of temperature with increase of eleva-
tion. The seals that had been accepted up
to last year was • falling of ibtemereary one
degree for every three hundred -feet of eleva-
tion from the earth's surface. Mr. O. states
that the result of his several ascents made
last yore was that when the sky was clear, a
decrease of one hundred degrees of tempers•
ture took place within one bundled feet of
the ground, while at the height 0130,000 feet
a apace of tally 1,000 had to be Aimed
through for a similar change. It will be
thus leen that instead of there being a uniform
decrease with a given number of feettrav-
ereed, the decline take pl•se only is invents

The $th Commission Mystery.
Notwithstanding dm most strenuous
exertions of the police,essiated by the neigh-
bors, no clue hu yet been found to the
whereabouts, dead or alive, of the wotnan
McIntosh. It appears, after a careful
search of the house, that she did not, sup-
posing she Icft of' her own accord, take
any of her best clothes, and even her
spectaelee were found on the dre.cr. Tel-
egrams have been sent to Port Iluron,
where it seems, she has friends, but she
did not go there. If there has been foul
play, we are suti.tie l that it will yet be
discovered, and the perpetrator brought to
merited justice. Altogether, it is a most
extraordinary cane. Donohue was again
brought before the Polioe Magistrates yes-
terday, and remanded until Monday nett.
