Dcxa Siu,—In my previous letter I have met tbe two first cbargos of the Clinton New Era against the Conserva tive Government of Sir John Macdon ald, namely that be “had not redressed the grievances of the hMf-breedej” and also that he “had been deaf to" the ap peals of the settlers for simple justice,” A few facts given proved the falsity of these charges, and before I proceed to deal with the further charges of the New Era\ let me recapitulate those facts for your readers . In 1870, the province of Manitoba was formed, and, with the remainder of the North West Territory, admitted a'3 an integral part of the Dominion cf Can ada. At that date there were “no gnev- ances of tbe Halfbreeds” to be redressed, and no “appeals of settlers for simple justice” unheeded. Tbe former had nothing'to “appeal” from, ahd “eettlers” bad no existence, Yet in that year, 1870, Riel aqd his gang commenced, their career of rapine,* murder, and r,-’ Hellion against the newly constituted, authority of the land. In 1871 that re- ' bellion'"was crushed and the murderers and traitors fled the country, Thomas Scott.bgjng murdered in cold blood by Riel on 3rd March, 1870. In December 1871, Mr. Blake being then a member of the On tar ^“Govern ment off/rs on jts . behalf, a reward .of five thousand dollars for Riel’s appre hension. ■ _ . . ' In 1873, the pacific Scandal, as it was called, agitated the. country, the commission appointed to investigate, tbe eba'rge reported to the House of Com mons, which, met on 2nd October On tbe_ 27'th the debate pri the address begun, and after several nights debate a divi sion was expected, and rumours were prevalent of a large defection from Sir John's supporters, some Ontario mem bers. being dissatisfied with t’hetallegrd- temporising wi h Scott’B.murderer,- <tiel. ’Many pf the French Canadian members from Quebec Wanted an amnesty for hipn,'whilst Mackenzie^nd'the opposition were negotiating~on the tetms of that amnesty in the event of their accession . to power, and Riel was'on Jiahd to avail himseli oflL Their combimid influences failed to extort a promise of amnesty from Sir John, and early in Novemb r his ministry resigned office, and Macketf.’ zie came in.
