For some weeks moralists ha.v.e. ;en moralizing, preachers have been r&chitig, snd journalists have been ridng about the great wickedness the modern Babylon—London. ie Pall Mali Gazette published ounding revelations of the hcrrible iritices pf English maidens to the it of lecherous and wealthy brutes, regular business is carried on, th head quarters in London and Miches on the continent, for the rpose of supplying girls, ot _ 11 to yeara of age chiefly, to the disso- ,e denions of the metropolis and ewhere for sums varying from $15 ward. The most harrowing des ption of hell itself must be that a paradise of peace compared th the wailings and body and soul tures of hundreds—ave, thousands of mere children in England who i sacrificed in this way. Orders i taken for maidens in as purely ouimercial way as for a package tea. And doctors dertify to the luineness of the “parcels” even as analyist would to the purity of itea. Horrible! Horrible !! And ; we are told the supply exceeds i demand, and the demand is such it one chartered libertine, aged years, boasts of his having ruined o thousand girls that were pro. :ed for him through these damns e houses commissioned to trhde I deal in human flesh. And ugh it is generally thought that, i insatiable monsters belong ex- sively to tho aristocracy of Eng el, if the revelations recently made to be relied upon, they are to be nd in all classes of society— ong princes of royal blood, pepr%; iporal and spiritual, civil servants,, ;itled nabobs, etc. So.monstrous re the allegations made by the ■ II Mall Gazette, that the Govern- nt were asked to take proceedings dust the proprietors of the paper . publishing obscene literature, e editor while not courting pro- !Ution challenged it, at thp same tie hinting that in self-defence lie tuld bei. compelled to give the mes of civil and spiritual digni- •ies as being implicated in the llish traffic in the, flesh and blood —in many cases— mere infants, was decided dot to prosecute, but- jofs were submitted to the Arcfi- hop of CanterbnryrCardinai Man- ig and Mr. ~Samuel Morlev, who ve repotted that the Gazette had iple justification for the statements mkde. The most lamentable phase the whole licentious business, is 8 ease with which procuresses, in ristian England, obtain children >in parents, to be seduced. An formulated excuse being that sir young daughters were likely be seduced anyway, and they pre- rred that thej’ b’e kedubed^by men lio could pay them well than by_ meyle88 boys. We'fn Canada are spt to roll our es skyward and thank God that ingfi are not as bad here as in Eng- !mL But for our opport uhiticH we s bad enough.

The chastity of our daugh- 8 is piiceless and any possible con-- binating influences should be /Heated, though those influences y not tome to thtowfaco to any rming pxtent. The English Parliament has just ised an act, owing to the Gazelle's elations, raising th<* ago from 13 16 years, at which a female child iomes a woman by law, and any lation of her before the latter age ;h oT without her consent is now rime nndor tho law. But England is not satisfied with u measure of reform, and neither 1 Canada i<o. Convocation of tho ijrch of England was lately in itiou, when tho Bishop of Cloucos and Bristol moved in tho .Upper use “That this Mouse desires to prftrtB itft tlionkfulnosfl that the T X RH1 Tino “there should be no delay i» regard “to the steps still necemry to be “taken in order that the Bill should "become law,” The Bishop of Ox- foid took exception to the mild terms in which the resolution was couched, and expressed dissatisfac tion with the limit of age fixed by the Bill. Nothing less than eighteen years should satisfy them and for himself he saw no reason why the age should not be made twenty-one years as in other countries. He moved to add after “Amendment i Bill” the words—“even if it be only, “a partial remedy for the evil it is “intended to cure.” This amend*’ ment was accepted and the resolution adopted meta. con. The General •4fisemlJy of iTm" Rresbyterian JThurch of Ireland, at its meeting last month, adopted the following --memorial to- Barlinmentf the—termfr being somewhat akin to that adopted by the Free Church a year ago :— “Your memorialists anxiously desire “that adequate meustires should be “adopted’tor the purpose of securing “the better, protection of young “women from licentious men and in- “famous persons who makeirtrade “in vice,' and that tliia protection “should be extended to those who “are- without property,’ parent's or “guardians; and-to all girls under the” “age of at least eighteen years.” ■ We do not know how tho law stands in Canada, but thisjia a mat ter worthy the attention of our legislators and-of inquiring into. We have for years persistently, ad' »vocated the passage of laws for the suppressing of the “permitted crime” —seduction, and have regretted-that Charlton’s and Cameron’s bills did and immorality and in danger to society and the state, with the traffic just revealed in England, is the crime of seduction in Canada, though it has not assumed the organized and huge proportions its counterpart baa assumed in England.’ .Seduction should be made a criminal offence in • Canada, The seducer is not only a murderer of character, he is a murs derer in fact.

Middleton did not receive such an ot dvr,_ Bat Riel’s^ counsel wished certain letters wliiph persons in the Northwest had1 sent to the govern* ment and wlrich bad nothing to do with Riel. The Crown objected to producing irrelevant documents the publishing of which might endanger the lives of the loyal settlors who bad written thein. vert the militia of Canada into a Tory organization.” Even C«pt. McDonald, of Porter’s Hill, stauuqh a reformer as he is, wouldn’t mind if lie and the members of his company were called a “Tory organ- Station” where the phrase meant fealty to Canada and the Crown. The Globo can’t understand why every Conservative lawyer in Clin ton wants to be insulted by the offer of a ltevising-offieerahip. Why,they are so degraded that thf*y would even accept a police magistrateship with all the insult implies. P J ;Some five gentlemen calling them selves the Scott Act Association of the county of Huron met in Clinton last,week. Their object, we are told, was to fix upon a person whom they would recommend to the Government that already appearing in interviews with that gentleman. Henry Walter# testified that Riel had gone to his store and demanded arms and ammunition. Witness tried to resist, hut was taken prison er and his store was completely sack ed. Hillard Mitchell testified that Riel acted from a spirit of revenge lor be ing outlawed 15 years ago, Thos, Jackson, ol Prince Albert, a druggist, and a brother of the insane prisoner discharged lately, was the next witness, and proved Riel to be the actual leader in the Duck Lake and Batoche fights. Riel had told him he had, requested Captain Mc- DowaH to ask'Tbe Dominion Govern ment for $35,000 as indemnity for losses sustained through the first re hellion, Riel put prisoners in a cel lar the day Middleton approached Batoche.

'The action of the Court.is certainly.a reflection on the editorial shrewdness of the Globe and Era.

It was to'O' bad of the Court to find outrin half an houf what our cotem. could not discover in a’whole year. But the.i justice mutt be done, Tlie’-67qie is laboring hard to have Gen.

In taking the circuinstances of my trial, as they are, the'only things I wouli'i like now to. ca.ll re-- aBpectfully your attention to,, before to’deliberate, are first, that ’•the^Jiprisbtof 'Common's, the -senate and irie*mihistry of the Dominion, which make the laws of-this land anil govern it, are not representative whatever of th^ people of'the North west; second, that tlie Northwest "council, generated by. the-Federal * ‘ government, lias the ’defent,a o(' it.R_ parent. The nuniber.-of members elected by the people to the council .make it only a sharn~Tfepreseritative legislature, and no representative government. British civilization, which-rule’s.tlie..world to-day., and the . British constitution .. has defined a" government as those who,rule tlie Northwest and called them responsi ble ■’governments, which bluntly means that they are not responsible. .By.a.11 the:T<M®i'fce":w;hich I had here before you -yesterday, you’wei_e_e.Qm=y-- pelled to adhiitn,IiaU.Jri,m not , ponsible, then' I am insane, Good sense alone, without soientitic<ith<?or ies or explanations, leads to^the same ; .conclusion. By the testimony hud before you during the trial, witness es on both Bides.’prbved that petition after petition was Sent to the federal goyennnent, but so irresponsible is that government to the Northwest that for,§everal -years 'it did’ nothing to satisfy the peoele of this, great land . It has. hanliy been able to an swer once or give a single response. This fact would indicate absolute lack of responsibility.. In fact, there is insanity complicated" witli paralysis indicated; In fact, ’With the malady it is said I am suffering from,; this monster of irresponsibility is'stiffer ing.
