No Promise of Reciprocity With the United States. ,GERRYMANDER BILL PROMISED: :Parliament °Belled With Much Fuse and Peethere by the Governor. His Excellency opened the second session of on... present Parliament of Canada. Although the proceedings and ceremonies 'attending the opening are of the same istereotypecl character year after year, the +event is always looked forward to by the citizens of Ottawa with a considerable degree of interest. Among the crowd who assembled in front of the main tower of the Parliament buildings and who lined the drive along the grounds thereto so as to be able to get a glimpse of the Vice - Regal carriage as it rolled past might be seen many faces which were there last year for the same purpose for which they came out to -day. The invitation list to the floor of the Senate chambers contained not a few of the names which have been roan there for years past, yet each time as the opening comes round they are as eager to attend as ever. The gentleman usher of the Black Rod, Mr. R. E. /limber, ' was entrusted with the arrangement of the programme to -day, as he has been for year, past, as well as with the pending out of the invitations to those specially favored to a seat on the floor of the red chamber or in the dress gallery. There was no lack of demand for tickets to &pa the gallery this year, and long before noon to -day all were disposed of. The number printed was only limited to the seating ac- commodation of the gallery. The invitee e time to a seat on the floor were in number equal to past years. The booming of canons from Nepean Point, ee detachment of the Ottawa Field Battery being assigned to fire the Royal solute :shortly before 3 o'clock, announced that Lord Stanley had lett Government House for the Parliament buildings. Here and there along the route knots of people as- tembled and gazed with interest as the carriage drove past. An escort under <Capt. Gourdeau was supplied from the Princess Louise Dragoon Guards white the ,Guard of Honor in command of Captain Regina was from the Governor -General's Foot Guards and was drawn up in front of the main entrance to the Parliament build - begs. The arrival of the Vico Regal car- riage was greeted with a salute from the 'Guard of Honor, music from the guards band and a cheer from the crowd. Lord Stanley then proceeded to the Senate Chamber where he delivered the following: SPEECH mom TEE TuRoNE. ' Honorable Gentlemen of the :senate : Gentlemen of the House of Coinmons : It affords me much gratification to meet you at the commencement of the Parlia- mentary session. and to be able to congratu- late you upon the general prosperity of the Dominion, and upon the abundant harvest with which Providence has blessed all parts -of the country. The lamented and untimely death of His Royal Highness the Duke of Clarence and Avondale has aroused a feeling of profound sorrow. The sympathy with Her Majesty sand Their Royal Highnesses the Prince and Princess of Wales in their bereavement which has prevailed in the Dominion on this melancholy occasion has found express- odon in respectful messages of condolence from my Ministers, from the Provincial Governments and from many other repre- -sentative bodies. The negotiations with respect to seal fish- ing in Behring Sea have been continued with a view to the adjustment by arbitra- tion of the difficulties which have arisen between Her Majesty's Government and that of the United States on that subject. -Commissioners have been appointed by both Governments to investigate the circum- stances of seal life in Behring Sea, to report thereon, and to suggest the measures, if any, which they may deem necessary for its protection and preservation. The Com- missioners are proceeding with their delib- erations in Washington, .end the results will shortly be communicatled to Her Ma- esty's Government. I trust that their ' investigations and the determination of the arbitrators who are to be appointed may lead to Si just and equitable settlementof this long pendingdifficulty. The meeting which had been arranged with the United States Government for a day in October last for an informal discus - /don on the extension of trade between the two countries and on other international mat- ters requiring adjustment, was postponed at their request, but in compliance with a more recent intimation from that Govern- ment three of my Ministers proceeded to Washington and conferred with representa- tives of the administration of the United States on those subjects. An amicable un- derstanding was arrived at respecting the steps to be taken for the establishment of the boundary of Alaska and for reciprocity of services in cases of wreak and salvage. Arrangements were also reached for the appointment of an Inter- national -Commission, to report on the regulations which may be adopted by the United Stites and Canada for the preven- tion of destructive 'methods of fishing and the pollution of streams and for establish- ing uniformity of close seasons, and other means for the preservation and increase of fish. A valuable and friendly interchange of views respecting other important matters also took place. In accordance with the premiss° given at the close of the last amnion, a commission has been issued to investi- gate the working of the Civil Ser- vice Act and other matters connected with the Civil service generally, and the report of this commission will be laid before you during the present sweeten. The con- clusions Of the Commission on the Manufac- ture of Beet Root Sugar will also, be laid before you. It is desirable that the Misery regulations in British Columbia should be examined atta revised, so as to adept them better to the requirements of the fisheries in that Province. ' A commission has been leaned with that object An important measure respecting the criminal law, which was laid before you le.st session,has been reveled and improved as a resie Of the expreseion of views elecited by its presentation to Parliament, and will be submitted to you. Your attention will' also be direetectete ,measures for the redistribution of seats consequent upon the comma return& the establishment of the Boundariee of the territories, and the arnalgemetion of the 1)epartmente of Marine and -Fisheries. Bills will also be presented to you for the am- endment of the Civil Service Act, the Acts relating to real property in the Territories and of those respecting the fisheries. -Gentlemen of the House Of Commons: The tics:omits for tho past year will be • laid before you, as well as the estimates for the sineuihg year. Therm (estimates have been prepared with a due regard to eagles:ay and the regniremente Of the notrlic OerViee Honorable Gentlemen of the Seeate 4 Gentlemen of the Reuse of CoMmong: I commend these important 0144jIrta and all matters effecting the public interests which may be 'brought before you to your best consideration, anti I feel assured that you will addrees yourselves to them with earuestness and assiduity, The Commons then returned. to their chamber, and both Houses ad mimed. Amongst the Ministers presentwerePreinier Abbott, Sir Adolphe Caron, Sir john Thompson, Hon. Mackenzie Dowell, J. C. Patterson, Dewdney, lisiggart and Ouimele Col. Lars the American Consul, and Mr. VenBuyssell, the Belgian Conant, were also present. The following new members were intro- duced and took their seats amidet the tsp. plause of their friends: Mr. Arthur R. Dickey, Cumberland, N. S., introduced by Sir John Thompson and Mr. a H. Tupper. Mr. R. R. McLennan, Glengarry, intro- duced by Sir John Thompson and Mr. Hag - garb. Mr. John A. MacDonald, Victoria, N. S., introduced by Sir John Thompson and Mr. Tupper. Mr. Coatsworth presented petitions re- specting railway works in Toronto. Sir John Thompson --I regret that the leader of the Opposition is not able to be in his place this afternoon, and in view of that circumstance I ask the House not to pro- ceed with the orders of the day, but to ad- journ. The House Adjourned at 3.30 p. m. BRAINS NOT VET EX11411S'IWO. Among the notable new inventions of the season are a fly brush and a dish washer. The former is a very neat little arrangment for driving off the flies which often torment horses so much in the summer time that it is unsafe to ride behind them. Frain what looks like an ordinary riding -whip there protrudes at the knob a small horse -hair wisp about two inches long. By giving the whip a flinging movement this wisp is lengthened 'to about twenty-four inches, long enough to reach over neck, breast, eto., of the animal and driving away the flies and insects that pester the poor brute. By pulling at the other end of the whip the switch passes back into the handle. The inventor of the dish washer is Josephine Cochran, an Indiana widow, who worked nearly eight years on her machine before it did what she wanted in a way that is perfectly satisfactory. Inheriting some money, she has spent it all, $25,000, on her device. At last she has suceeeded. Imagine a tank containing two gallons of water. Divide into halves by a board, so that they shall never commingle. Make one half suds; keep the other clear. Over this divided tank run a basket filled with dishes, secured firmly, so that there is no poasibility of friction; touch a lever, the hot soap suds are pouring over the china with a force that would send the stream fifty feet; pull back your levee, the clear busing water is completing the cleansing. The basket has been enclosed in a box; touch a screw, the box opens, the basket is out; evaporation instantly dries the china and it is ready for the pantry:. The entire process has not taken a minute, and it would make no difference how many dishes you had in the basket. After the dishes are in the basket there are only four touches on the machine, one to put the basket into the closed box, one to turn on the soapy water, one to bring the basket under the rinsing water, one to open the box again. Still another invention is that of a new malting process, which promises to revolu- tionise the present methods of the malting business, and has been adopted by many American leading brewers. The Canada Malt Co., of Detroit, ordered a 10 -drum plant in April last, and it has been in full operation since Jan. 9th, with excellent results. In the floor malting process, at present in general use, the grains are spread on the floor and haveto be turned constantly by hand. In the rew process the malt is not laid upon the floor at all. After being steeped, it is put into huge circular steel drums', which revolve slowly. A current of cool, fresh air is furnished by another apparatus, called a coke tower. This is wide of iron, and filled with coke, and upon it a stream of water constantly plays. By means of an exhaust fan the err is drawn into and through the coke tower, and into a conduit, and thence into each revolving drum. The heat of germination is recorded by the thermometer on the outside, so that the maltster in charge ce.nregulate the tem- perature inside by stopping or running the drum and adjusting the stream of air. The advantages claimed over the old floor sys- tem are: The value of the malt is increased; the cost of manufacture is reduced one-half; floor space and motive power are greatly re- duced; manufacturers can continue work during the summer when barley is low priced; a uniformly good article of malt can be produced. Bill Nye Visits London. London is a good city -on the Canada side. There are 30,000 people there. They are excellent people, too, reminding mevery much of Americans. London has a good hotel at the depot. We wrote quite a lot of letters there and posted them in Ameri- can stamped envelopes. Then we stood around in the cold and bribed the postman to give them back to us so that eve could put Canadian stamps on them, which are 3 cents apiece, making 5 cents laid out on each of our letters. The street cars in London run on runners in winter, and the track is abandoned till the soft breath of spring comes again and kisses back to life and light and song the still and frosty features and the cold, white bosom of the 'slumbering earth. The Canadian Pacific has its latchstring hanging out for one and all. The passenger agent at London came to us and wanted to sell tickets to our company, consisting of Mr. Burbank and myself. We said that other roads were competing for us, and that we were wavering. So he said that if we would travel by his road to Detroit, a ride of over three hours* he would transfer UN there to the Michigan Central, pay our hotel bilks while in Canada, fur- nish ue a year's subscription to London Punch, with key to same, and a pair of beautiful pictures by Rembrandt, entitled "Wide Awake " and "Fast Asleep" - Bill Nye.

Mr. Tooley staked if it was the intention of the Government to take any action with regard to the resolution passed at the lase sitting of the County Council of the county of Middlesex with regard to the removal of Mr. Charles Hutchinson from the position of county attorney of the said county. Mr. Mowat replied thee the usual action had been taken. The county attorney had answered in general terms to the resolution, but before the Government considered the matter it would be necessary to have speci- fications of the matters complaiaed of. Mr. Tooley asked whether it was the intention of the Government to take any action in the case recently tried in the city of London in which William Yorke and others were aharged and convicted of de - horning a certain number of cattle, and if so what action is proposed to be taken.

Story of' a Life Rectalmed-A Priso- ner Fsarcion.ed Because Dying of Coninumption Is Recalled to Strength. Alexander Newman was sentenced to serve twenty-one years in the Penitentiary at Kingston, Ont. His physical system gave away under the confinement and re- duced him to weakness and emaciation. Consumption easily found him a subject for He remorseless attack. He wasted away &mealy in spite of the well meant energies, skill and kindness of the hospital staff. His ease was pronounced hopeless, with no ex- pectation that be could survive another winter, consequently the authorities, widen never ad in such oases till hope of life is utter- ly abandoned, releseed him on Oct. 24th lent, after a confinement of four years. Alexander Newman was carried from the prison bospi- /ee, placed in an ambulance tal on a stretcher, / October, 1891. and conveyed to the home of his relatives. His home -coining was anything but joyful, as his new-found, liberty seemed domesa to be cut short by the world's great gleaner -death. Bet happily fears grew groundless -life was again to glow with vigor, and. hope for the hopeless one was revived. Three days after Newman's release, a friend who understood the remarkable power of Miller's Emulsion to sustain and strengthen life, advised his sister to procure a bottle of the remedy. Animated with the belief that while there is life there is hope, she pur- chased a bottle of Miller's Emulsion of Cod Liver Oil. From the first dose taken the patient looked forward with hope when it was found that his system could retain and assimilate this palatable preparation. His digestive organs had been so weak he was unable to retain sufficient food to nourish his body, from that cause he had so wasted awayas to weigh only 102 pounds. The life-giving qualities of Miller's Emulsion soon exercised influence over Newman by ar- resting dearer and check- ing his dreadful enemy -the consumption. Steadily ii-nprovement has continued. Strength came with added flesh, Alexander Newman is a new man indeed. We present a copy from his photograph taken Jan. 2nd instant. Mr. New- man -weighed on that date 145 pounds, a gain January, 1892. of ten ounces a day for sixty-six days from the time he began to use Miller's Emulsion of Cod Liver Oil. We trust this very singu- lar recovery will not have the effect of res- training the hand of mercy in the release of sick prisoners. Far better if this result- ed, that the case of Alexander Newman were not known publicly, but it is too ram. To verify able in the interest of public health_ toe '0.3 u - paint is appended. the °Love facts' the certificate ttooNf, tiihaenu a ry 2nd, 1892.-1 hereby certify to the above being correct in every particular.

It is very important in this age of vast material progress that a remedy be pleasing to the taste and to the eye, easily taken, acceptable to the stomach and healthy in its nature and effects. Posseesing these quan ities, Syrup of Figs is the one perfect laxa- tive and most gentle diuretic known. -In his lecture on Shakespeare, at Indianapolis, Colonel Ingersoll said: "The sublimest line in the English language is, Love is not love that alters when it alter- ation finds."

The unexpected succession of Princo Gemge of Wales to his brother's place an heir presumptive. recalls the feet that there are many heirs to, )3ritish peerages who started life withoet any such expectation, eaye the New Yea Recorder. It is little more than a year ago since Viscount Cante- lupe's yachting accident made his younger brother, theoen, trade, heir to the earldom of Delaware, The Earl of Dalkeith, who will succeed, to the enormous possessions and revenues -of the dukedom of Buccleucb, owes his. position to a rifle accident in a Scottish doer forest. Not many years ago hieelder brother, while deer. stalking in, Loohieles wilderness in Glen Arkain. stumbled over his weapon, which went off, and he died as ho lay on the hillside, with no one but a High, - land elite to witness his last agony. That slip of the foot diverted the sucession. to territories as large as some English come-. ties and to revenues that a king would envy. Even more remarkable is the case of the Earl of Aberdeen, who had, two brothers older than himself in direct aocees- sion to the broad acres around /Wenn House. What happened to the first cifithat ill-fated couple will never be known When last heard of he was serving as a aailer be- fore the mast and since then he as dieatse peered, leaving no trace behind him.

Once, at a withering of 3,000 people at Aberdeen, I saw and heard MacGregor muse wild enthusiasm by simple means. "There was a day," he said, "on which an ancestor of mine was sentenced to be hanged." Loud applause greeted this tragic statement. The orator went on : "I could have no doubt it was for stealing." Con- sidering the way in which the MacGregor& of old got their living, the suggestion was a very probable one. It was received with thunderous cheering.
