The 51t1latiort at Ottitern.
In our lost issue we gaye I report of
the proceedings at the opening of par-
liament, after which the 1101100 adjontai-
ed till Monday 2Tth ult. On re-as-
•Inbling, the reply to the speech from
the Throne was molted by Mr. Witton
of Hamiltua, seconded by Mr. Baby,
a French Lower Canadian mernber. It
As usual to have:some of the nee- mem-
',hers perform this duty, but tits Prinee
Edward Island representatives dechued
the honour, and the Government were
obliged to fall back on twoeof their old
thick aed thin supporters. When the
, second clause of the reply waa read u
follews,-"We thank 'Veer Excellency
for Laving, in orecordance with the inti-
iliac:ion given bp Your Excellency at the
clusiug of hag session, caused Parlia-
ment to be stipimoned at the earliest
moment after 4er receipt of the report
iit the Commissioners app.f...inted by
Your Excellency tScequire irito certain
/netters connected with the- Canadisin
Pecifac Railway," Mr. Mackenzie moved
te add the following, -"And we have to
acquaint Your Excellency that by their
coarse in the investigation of the
charges preferred by Mr. Huntington, in
his place in this anl under the
/Acts dieclosed in the evidence laid before
43, His Excellency's advisers have merit -
e 1 the severe censure of this House."
This is simply a vote ef want of confi-
dctice,the Opposition haviug determined
to pain issue with the government at
once oft the constitutional question
which has arisen in connection with the
Pacific Railway investigation. Mr. Jas.
McDunald sof Pictou, in the interest of
the goverweenamoved to substitute the
renewing for Mr. Macheazie's amend-
• ineut,-"And we desire, to assure His
Excellency that after consideration of
.., the statements made in the evidence
• before us, and while we regret the out-
lay of money by all poliycal, parties at
Parliamentary electione, and desire 4he
most stringent mensures to put ,an, end
to the practice, we, at the same time, beg
leave to express our continued confi-
deace in His Excelleucy's advisers, and
in their administration of public affairs."
rp to the time we write the debate on
the above mohons bes been going on.
31esars. Tupper, Ilineks.Jas. afcleonald,
Raker, Palmer, Kirkpatrick, McDonell,

hare, Joly, Coffin, Laflamme, Harlem.
Pickard and Prevost for the Opposition,
Several of the latter have hitherto been
government supporters but possess too
lunch independence to vote with them in
their present inignities. The speeches
of Messrs. Mackenzie, Glass, Ilunting-
don, Wood and Laflamme were very
&hie, expoeing the crwroption of the
grivernmene and their unwarranted
cm/nein taking the investigation out of
the. hands of rarliament. We reeret
that we cannot find space for even a
synopsis of them. Mr. Tilley, who is
about the most honourable member of
the government, made a very weak de-
fense and admitted that they had been
guilty of an "indiscretion."
Intense interest is felt tbroughoet the
ceuntry as to the issue of this debate.
It was thought a diviaion would have
been taken before this, bat as Sir John
A. Macdonald, Mr. Blake ried several
other members have yet to speak, a vote
may net be reached for a day or t wo yet.
The Opposition have strong hopes
of defeating the government and we
earuestly trust their fotcleat expecta-
tions may be retdised. The honour of
the eouutry is at stake and the result
will be' eagerly looked fur nut only
throughoet theDvininien.but inEngland,
the Vatted States and other countries.
In the meantime government supporters
are quite despondent and no means are

A recent letter from the correspon-
dent of the Globe in Newfoundland tells
of discoveries, which if correct, will rse
volutionise our ideas of that island mod
, maks it the Great Britain of America.
j The opinion has hitherto prevailed that
it is a bleak, rooky island ; end the lies
is atrengthened by the aripearn.nee ita
shores present as seen from passing
reesels. The settlements which it con-
tains are principany in the peninsula of
Avalon ,in the south east, and the in-
habitanta being chiefly engaged. in tha
cod fisheries they know little and tare
as little about its interior mamma.
Recent explorations have showu "that
the island is rich in natural regosiress,
and now the information comes to band
that the St. George's Bay district Ap-
pears to peewee all the advantages re-
qutred to support a large and prosper
ous population. The soil _is fertile
there is abandance of timber, coal of
the best quality is plentiful,' aa is also
salt, the very thing required for curing
and preserving the large quantities of
codfiah which are taken alongeirts shores
and which ham hitherto formed the
chief source of wealth. Gypsum. petro-
leum, lead and other minerals hare also
been discovered. Within a few daya
sail pf the coast of,Ireland met on the
direct route of summer travel bet wcen
Europe and America and ponsessed of
each natural resources, this island must
speedily become the home of a numerous
-and prosperous people, and we taut its
&habitants will see it to. be to their ad-
vantage speedily to enterthe confeder-
ation, emit then be rendered complete.
A little capital and enterprise is alt th st
is necessary to open up and develop the
wonderful natural resources which it ap-
pears this province possesses.
-In his speech on Mr. Mackenzie's
want of confidence rnotion at Ottawa Dr.
Tupper is reported to have said: -
He (Dr. Tupper) did not shrink
from sharing the responsibility of 1111
that the Premier had done. He lauded
Sir John A.'s pure -minded and patriotic
conduct in all his actions, and as one
who had saved the country from"reli-
gious strife and, anarchy, end had estab-
lished civil an& religious liberty in this
country.
Zounds ! So according to Dr. Tupper
we never had civil and religioua liberty
in this county till the time of Sir John
A. Macdonald ! ! Rather hard on
Robert Baldwin, Sir Francis flineks
and other premiers who proceeded hint.
We think the Doctor would have come
nearer the truth had he said that Sir
Jolsn had iestablishdel " a reign of
corruption aml extravagence, which hay
gone on from bad to wprso till it has
culminated in. the present dise,riceful
disclosures, and rendered the name of
Canada Yr, by -word ands reproach. Civil
and religious lberty forsooth ! Wekave
little reason to thank * John, or Dr.
Tupper either, for dup.-
no Stokes TrIal.
Stokes, the a.ssassin of James Fisk,
Junior, of New York, who W3.2 found
gatiity of murder some time ago, but for
whom a new trial was obtained, wee
again breught before the Court last
week. He was ou thia occasion found
Guilty of ;manslaughter in the third de-
gree and gentenced to imprisonment in
the State prison for four years. It is
not all likely he will serve out tho full
term. His prepossessing appearance
aud the vrealthy friends who secured for
him a new trial will probably be the
means of having hfm released ia a short
time. What a mockery is the adminis-
tration of 4ustIce inethe Milted States
when the ierson who deliberately takes
away the Idea a fellow createre is thus
leniently dealt with. Wu thank Heaven
British justice 0 not thus administered.
Nor were there any pallioting, circum-
stances ottending Stekee case. Nothing
but a miserable sentitnentolism, to-
gether with the ioftuence of wealth, haa
saved him from the gallows.
The Leto Dr. Candlish
News has reached us of the (heath of
Rev. Robert Candlish, D. D., of Edin-
burgh. He departed thus life on Sun-)
day, 19th October. He was in his 4:0th
year, having been born in 1F07. Foe
nearly 40 years he has been one of the
moet prominent men in Scotland and
next to Dr. Chalmers, has done more
for the Free Church than airy other rnan.
He was one of the /cadent in the non -
in trusion controversy which culminated
in the disruption of 1843. At one time
he was about coming to Canada having
been appeinteel by the Colonist! Com•
inittee to the congregatien of Donde,
and Ancestor, but before he cOuld get
away from Scotland the place was other-
wise filled up, and he waa soon after ap-
pointed to St. George'e, Edinburgh. .At
the time of his death he was Principlal
of the New College, Edinburgh.

ATT7MPT TIP BRIBE A MEMBER OF
PARLIAMENT.
On Monday, Mr. Cunninehatn of
Manitoba rose in his place in the house
and stated that on Sunday he was yisited
by Aleermen Heney of Ottawa, who,
on behalf of the Gorernment, offered him
a direct money bribe if he would vote
with the governtnent. The would be
briber was promptly arrested and
brought before the bar of the house but
remanded. What is to be thought of a
government which resorts to such out-
rageous means to Onstain itaelf in
eower.
A Fels: Ite;ort:
Some of the Tory papers have started
an absurd report, as false as It is malici-
CMS, that the South Huron poll books
have been tampered with, so al to give
Mr. Bishop an apparent majority. They
feel so keenly their defeat, and the huge
tell to which they were subjected by
their premature rejoicings, that they
have resorted to this misersble subter-
fuge to let themselves down easily. The
Returning Officer informs et that, taken
as a whole, he never saw poll books kept
and returned in better order.

living with Mr. Archibald Mcflreeor, Sr.,

The inforinahon wais acesimpaitiod by a
written request from Mr. Donald Mc-
Gregor becked up by Mr, Shannon,
Reeve of the Township, that the Coro-
ner should go out and investigate the
matter in his own official capacity. Dr,
Campbell consequently issued his war-
rant to Mo Jahn Lee, Constable, yelp;
went out add summoned a jury for five
o'clock, P.M. Mr. Shonnen, Reeve vf
McKillop, was foreman of the jury.
Folic witnesses were etamined after
which the Coroner msde a short address
to the jery. After a ehort time of de.
liberatten the j iry returned the verdict
"That Cie deceased, Morgorot McIntosh,
came to her death train Dottiest causes,"
We learn that the husband is in a kind
of imbecile state through liquor, and
also that he takes fits of falling sickness
and it was supposed that under the cir-
ctinuttauees an investigation was neces-
sary. No utor!is, however. were found
on the body to show that ytolonce of
any kin I had been need, aud th? hus-
band had been to no place where poison
could be procnrod. We may add that
the Coroner is of opinion that the de-
ceased corner to her death from (lien's of
the heart. , -
