A despatch from Ottawa, says: , Special eclat ,narked the formal opening of the first session of the twelfth Parliament of the Domin- ion, on Thursday, owing to the circumstance that for the first time in the history of the Dominion, the Vice -regal throne in the Senate chamber was occupied by a Prinere of the blood, who read the speech from the throne, first in English ' and then in faultless French, much to the delight of the French- Canadian members of .the House, TEXT OF ADDRESS. The address reads Honorable gentlemen of the Senate, gentlemen of the House of Com 011S It is with much satisfaction that I meet for the i,rst time the Parlia- ment of Uanada, and avail myself of your advice and assistance in fulfilment of the important eharge which has been entrusted to me by his majesty the King. I can as- sure you that Iesteern ita 'privi- lege to be called upon to administer' to the affairs of this prosperous and growing Dowiniau, and to as- sociate myself with you in the im- portant duties which you are about to approach. It affords mo greatleasure to congratulate you upon the con - tinned and increasing prosperity of the country- Our trade, both With British and -with foreign eouutries, is rapidly expanding, and there is very prospect that itsvolume in he present year will be largely in x.eess of that attained at any time an the past. CROPS AND CENSUS, Although there has been some damage to the crops in certain dis- tricts, the harvest Lias on the whole been abundant and it is believed that the returns to the • husband- man will exceed those secured in any previous year, The results of the census taken during the present year will be laid before you, so fax as they have been tabulated. While the increase in population has not fulfilled all the sanguine expectations that had been formed, yet it has been sub- stantial and encouraging. REVENUES BEST YET. 'on will be pleased to learnthat the revenues for the current fiscal year have, up to the present, large- ly exceeded those during any similar period in the past, with every prospect that this increase will be maintained. The advantages that would re- sult from a wider exchange of products between the various coun- tries of the Empire aro undoubted, in view of the wonderful variety and extent of those productions, and negotiations have been opened for improved trade arrangements with the British West Indies and British Guiana, which should proyo advantageous to those colonies as well as to this :Dominion. The importance of providing our country with better highways is manifest, A bill will be introduced for t1te.purpose of enabling the Dominion to co-operate 'with, the provinces in the accomplishment of this desirable object. It is essential to recognize that, in a country possessing so great an area of fertile land as that with which this Dominion is happily en- dowed, the great basie industry is agriculture, My advisers are con vineed that the time has come when greater aid and encourage- ment should be given to those who are engaged in the cultivation of. the land. To this end a measure will be introduced under which itis heaped that there may be eo-opera« between the Dominion and the vari- ous provinces for the purpose of assisting and encouraging our farmers to secure the best results in production, and .at the same time preserve the fertility of the soil, ^ OWNERSHIP OF ELEVATORS, A .uleotsure will be introduced revising and consolidating the acts relating to the inspection of grain and providing the means by which the Government can .secure, through a commission, the. control and operation of the terminal, elevators upon the Meat lakes. A bill will bo intredueed to pro- duce .a permanent tariff commis sion, whose duty it shall be to as- certain by investigation and enquiry such information as will furnish a more stable and satisfactory basis for tariff legislation than has here- tofore been available, Bills will be laid before you with respect to the department of externalaffairs, thearchives and other snbjeets. Theselection of the best route for the Hudson 13ay Railway is en- gaging the attention of my advis- ers, and an announcement will be made to you of the result of their enquiry. Gentlemen of the House of Com- mons: The accounts of the last year will be Iaid before you. The balance of the estimates for the current fiscal year, as well as the estimates for the coming year, will. be submitted for your approval at an early date. FINAL COMMENDATION. Honorable Gentlemen of the Senate, Gentlemen of the House of Commons: I commend the subjects which I have mentioned to your best consideration and I trust that your deliberations under the bless- ing of Divine Providence may tend to the welfare and good Gov- ernment of this Dominion.
