,SPEECH BY Mg PB 1kW WER,
Sir John Thompeep was invited to
speak before the Mitcdonalcr drub. in
Ottawa on the 14th of February; and
was greeted by a large and, enthusiastic.
gathering, The premier availed himself
of thisopportunityof addressing the var.
ions Liberal Conservative Associations
throughout the country,'' and ,empha
sized the importance'of their not only
standing true to their. colors but of
educating the public mind oh the plate
form, through the press, anti at their
regular meetings, on the policy which'
is to secure.Canada's future prospeiicy.
Ig' was totbe young men more especial'
ly that the Premier addressed Word's oe
counsel,. reminding them of the niedes
sity of keeping their principles pro'miu
eptly before the pliblieiu view 'of the
changes going ou in the pclittcalwoied
and of the commercial depression with
which many countries iucluaiug the
United States have been visited, and
in yiew moreover of the upheaval of
public opinion on questions of trade
and. commerce as well as of moral'.
religious topics. Sir John • Thompson
and
mson
took occasion to pay a fitting tribute
to the memory of tha. late . chieftain,
whorl he pronounced to be "the great-
est statesman'tiat'the, Colonies had
ever produced;and ct,unselked the young
men ef eanada to 'leave no - stone
turned in 'order tocarry•-out 'success-
fully the principles and policy • initatei
by the late Sir John Macdonald, who'
had left a legacy` to his adopted coun-
try the sound principle of protection to
native industries. While declining to
make known the secrets of the govern
ment, the wuole burden of the Pren%
ler+s tactical speech Went Pro
e , he
necessity of°.adhering to the National
Polley which had already done so much
for Canadaand ,
•this
which had. given
country a position of financial sound
ness beyond tliat'of any other country
in the world. Sir John met and re
futed the fallacies propagated through-
out the dominion by political agitators
and demagogues, 'whose object was
simply to regain party power . at the
expense of the best interests of Canada;
while the array of facts and statistics
presented by the Premier -in regard
to trade and commerce, the alleged ex
odurt and depreciation of farm :lands,
the public debt, the investment in pub-
lic works such as factories, add canals
and railways, including the great con-
tinental highway—was such ars t'o con•
vince the most sceptical that the pres-
ent government was entitled to •credit
for its progressive policy, and was, jus-
tified in claiming a continuance of
public confidence. A most able ' and'
business like speech was'concjuded bv`
a reference to the futetre'ilohcy of the-
government,
hegovernment, which the"'Piemier hinted
would be on the old linesOfamoderate
protection, in which the ihaustrial
classes —the farmer, the mechanic, .the,,
laborer the artisan, and the manufac-
, turer-would be equally benefited; and
with . this view the Canadian tariff
would be so revised and modified, dine
ing the coming session of parliament
as. to conduce to the benefit of all con-
cerned. "We do not propose", said Sir
John "to adopt extreme protection-
but we propose to continue to raise the
revenue. not by free trade methods of
direct tscxatton, but by the enainten
ance ofa oilstones' tariff which will be
levied on those articles that we can
Produce.in our own country, and on
which those•who are rich enough to
import from Abroad will pay duty if
they choose," Canada for the Canadi:
anal—such is the gist of the po icy
enunciated by the:Premier; and such
a policy will be supported by all true,
loyal subjects and by all well-wishers
for their. country.
THE M.AJUTOBA DECISION.
By latest advices the Supreme Court
of the Dominion has pronounced acids.
ion against the appeal of the R. C.
minority on the Manitoba School Act.
Three of the Judges, two of whom are.
Protestants and one a Roman Catholic,
expressed the opinion that there was
no ground for appeal to the Governor
General in Coun.ifi while two Judges,
tie a Protestant and the other a Roman
Catholic, expressed the contrary opin-
ion, TheP erfect fairness and imparti
ality which the Dominion Government
has displayed in this delicate question,
in removing the whole question ' out of
the
Sphere of politica and making it
P
turn entirely upon legal and constitu-
tional grounds—andthe impartiality
shown by the Judges of the Suprenfe
Cones, whose decision was unbiassed by
rel! g gioue or political considerations--
must eon vyinee every intelligent person
that Canada possesses an Executive
and a u ei who can hold the
J+dl cry
scales of justice evenly, irrespective of
creed, race or parlay. Whether the R.
C •Minority will be induced to pursue'
a profitless game of appealing, to the
Privy Connell in England, remains to
be seen; but in the meantime, so far
as. Canada is concerned, this vexed and
delicate question must now take end,
and public exettemeut will naturally
be now allayed until,solne' other iq'tnis
fatuns arises to disturb the peaceful
relations of a united. and happy people !

PROF. WEMYSS.
Professor H. G. Wemyss, poet, author
and artist, is a resident of Brockville;
Ont,, and is well and favorably known
in England and the United States, Pos'
sassing great literary abilities, he has
been the recipient Of many; honors in
the past. Ant 7ngthose who have ac-
knowledged Prof. Wemyss' a'bilitiee as
;a poet are his Royal • Highness, 'the
Prince of Wales, and the late Lord
Tennyson, England's Piet Laureate.
From the former he received a special
letter of thanks for poetical contribu-
tions written for'the Queen's Jubilee;
and from the latter'eame a;letter bear-
ing kindly greetings and wishes
Prof, Wemyss in his life work has al-
ways
bways kept in view One great ,object,
viz., doing good to men and women of
all ranks and conditions, Already the
talented professor has conferred bless-
ings on scores of men and women who
suffered froth various causes.' 'l'o Prof.
Wemyss, nature's great healer, Paine's
Celery Compound, brought strength,
vigor, perfect digestion and a new life.
Having secured these itiestimnable bless-
ings for'
less-ings,for' himself, he pointed out to oth-
ors the great highway to health. The
professor has loudly proclaimed the
curing powers of Paine's Celery Com-
pound; he has closely,followed the re-
sult, and `says "it worked like magic,"
Pref.' Wemyss, who has given us per-
mission to use his letter, says:—
"1 write to say that 1 have been a
sufferer for years from irritable stom-
ach and `debility, No medicine has
done the so much good as Paine's Celery
Compo rid. I fully endorse all that is
_said in its favor as a powerful recuper
ator for a.run down system. My wife
had a very bad attack of salt rheum.
Her hands' were terrible to look at, and
she was . getting worse under treat
tient she tried, but when Paine's Cel-
ery Compound was used it worked like
magic, and up to the time of writing
she is nearly cured. 1 gave a few
trial doses to a friend of mine suffering
from debility, and she,found such ben.
Mit from it that she its going: ,under a
regular course of the Compound; her
husband will 'alai, use it or rheuma-
tism."

The Walls of Jerusalem.
The lofty wall of Jerusalemand the
massive towers of the citadel are im-
mediately before us. We are on the
outer slope of Mount Zion, the sanctu-
ary and the abode of David. , The pon-
derous blocks which form the lower
strata of the wall might have been
shaped and put in place by some pre-
historic race of giants. More than al-
most anything else to be found around
Jerusalem, or within, this wall . bears
an appearance of great antiquity. We
can easily believe that its foundations
were laid in the time of David, though
its upper portions are unquestionably
modern.
The books vary., One says it was the
work of Sultan Suleiman in the six-
teenth century, another that it was
erected much earlier, and my guide, a
most intelligent and well informed Jew
of .Hungarian origin, told me that it
was built by the crusaders after they
had^got possession, for the purpose of
protecting the inhabitants against the
rascally Arabs, who would • ride up in
small parties, rob some rich family and
be off. with their plunder before any-
thing could be done to stop them. But,
however this may be, the wall, from
16 to 20 feet in height,' fully incloses
the town, and although it could 80011 be
knocked to pieces by a 10 pounder can-
uon it stands in good order, solid enough
for all peaceful purposes, and perfectly
separates the city from the country
about it.—Charles A. Dana in. Mc-'
Clure's Magazine.
