The disordered imagination and topsy- turvydom of judgment which I suspect in our European friends, find,. a parallel in the strange contrariness and awkwardness of many of their manual praurioes. The Euro- pean carpenter, for instence, or other artisan, with his voluminousatool-chest and paraphernalia of ingenious implements, is frequently outdone in rapid, dexterous, and delicate hand -work., by our artisan with the half-dozen simple tools he has at command, tools which he has generally made almost entirely himself. The awkwardness of the foreign (European) carpenter is manifest in his slow and slovenly method of work. For instance, he will always plane and frequently saw away from instead of toward himself, the instrument thus held obstructing the close superintendence by the eye of the work to be done. With curious perversity Euro- peans make use of the right-handed in the place of left-handed. screws yet the right hand has a surer and steadier twisting power from right to left than frotn left to right. Similarly, it is easier to shoot a bolt into its lock by turning the key from right to left than the opposite way. European locks however, are almost invariably made on the contrary method. In the manual art of bookmaking it is, I believe, the com- mon practice to place the author's or editor's notes at the bottom of the page, instead of, as with us, at the top, whence the eye can isasily and naturally run down the text again to the point at which the break occurred, instead ot retracting its way backward. Even in such trifling matters as the address of a let- ter the wrong -headedness of European methods is apparent. The information required by the post office em- ployees is not given in the order wanted e but in the reverse order. Most of these matters are in themselves trivial, are of no more weight than smoke ; but, like smoke, they show the direction of the wind. It appears to me that between the prin. cipal men of the two English political parties there must be as it were, a secret or tacit understanding and unwritten compact that the people shall be humored with the shadow of legislation, but deprived of the substance of ib; that a puppet show, decorous if possible, but amusing at all hazards, should be provided for their amusement, with the object of distracting their attention from suppositious or real but =medicable ills. I notice that i every party, while n opposition, exerts itself strenuously to prevent the party in office from legislating with effect, irrespec- tively of the goodness or badness ot any particular proposal. The party in power, on the other hand, while affecting impa- tience of the opposition; .appears to be secretly relieved at being prevented from •committing itself to anything drastic or 'definite. —Japanese Letters. The Exemption Principle, Ottawa Journal : Some of our readers -who may conscientiously believe in exemp- tions from taxation may have been set thinking by yesterday's item of news .about that man in Maine. He organized himself into a religious society and refused to pay taxes and the assessor discovered that he could not legally force the man to pay. If Prince Mishael, of the Flying Roll, had ,settled in Ottawa with his angel, he could have escaped taxes in the same way. By calling his house a religious institution, he would have been legally exempt from taxa- tion. In other words, by calling his place of prostitution an establishment to the glory of God, Prince Michael could have had the rest of us paying his taxes—that is, helping to support hie house of prostitu- tion. That' e your exemption principle for you. This sounds coarse, but it is the cold truth. A boy named Dorris was climbing be- tween two oars of a freight train etahding on the Grand Trunk rails on Aylmer street, Peterboro', yesterday, when the train began to move, and the lad's right arm was hal:11y &tithed between the bumpers: Ile wad piffled front under the card by a passer-by just, in time to save him from the *heels.

The Bill to amend the Act incorporating the fdyned ef the dioome of Niagara+ and to ituthoeize the sale of certain lends wise read a third time.—Mr. Gibson (Hamilton). Mr. Harceurt's 13ill to incorporate the Niagara Falls Park and Queenston Electrical Railway & Steamboat Coinpany was allowed to tand, as Mr. Meredith called attention to the feet that whilst a private Bill it proposed to deal with Crown property. Mr. Willoughby moved that irt the opinion of this house it is expedient that the Govern. metat should make some suitable recognition to the volunteers 01 1837-8 for the valuable services they zendered in defence of their country at that time. Ile made a stirring appeal to the loyalty and aentiments of the members of the House. Mr. Gibson thought there was no good object to be served by introducing such a motion at this stage of the session. It would but :serve to open old sores and animosities which had long since healed, His sympathies had always been with the oppreesed in that insurrection and against what might fitly be termed the oppressors. This Government had no authority to epend any money on the militia of this country except, in one or two trifling matters pro- vided for in the Municipal Act He there- fore moved tint all the words after "that" in the resolution be cancelled, and the following substituted therefor: "While the grievances under which the Province labored for some years prior to 1837 led some of the people into rebellion in that year, the great majority of those who felt the grievances preferred trusting for a remedy to continued peaceful agitation ; that these grievances have long since been removed, and that by their removal the attachment of the whole people to British connection was happily restored, and has existed without interruption for the halt century that has since elapsed ; that mat- ters relating to the militia and defence of the country now belong under the constitu- tion to the Dominion Parliamentanid do not call for further consideration by this House." Mr. Raysidesnoved in amendment to these amendment that the words be added to the amendment, " And this view is illustrated by the consideration that the Dominion Par - Ramon took cognizance of the claims of the veterans of 1812." Mr. Clanoy though it would be a graceful thing for the Government to acknowledge the services of the men who served in the militia, during the rebellion of 1837. His friend in moving the resolution did not de- sire to stir up strife. Many of those who served in 1837 were Liberals. They simply did their duty regardless of politics. Mr. Hiscott said he could well remember the struggle,and the men underwent great hardships. A man is a craven who will not turn out to defend constituted authority. Mr. Meredith said that it was but a poor compliment to those who served their coun- try in a time of need to pass the matter over to the Dominion. It would have been unfair to make the Maritime Provinces pay a share in rewarding the veterans, and the matter will some within the jurisdiction of this House. Mr. Mowat said he sympathized as strongly as anyone with the veterans of 1837. Ile was pleased to see the expressions of loyalty by the members of the 'House. He felt that no distinction should be made between the volunteers of 1837 and these who felt that their grievances were so great that they had to have a recourse to arms. (Opposition and Government cheers.) He could not overlook that great good had. been done by the rebellion. (Hear, hear.) These men had far greater grievances than the people of the United States when they rebelled success- fully. There were few even of the hon. gentlemen of the Opposition who could stand up and say that they would put up with such grievances without hope of re- dress and not have recourse to rebellion. No one would now say that the rebellion was criminal. Some may say that the method adopted to remove these grievances was hasty, and that continued agitation would have effected the same purpose. Some of the men who rebelled never said they were wrong. Cartier, who we,s one of the most active rebels, became a Prime Minister of the Crown, and was one of the few Canadians that her Majesty saw fit to make a baronet. Cartier never considered that he had done wrong. There are several reasons why the Dominion Government should take this question up, but there should not be any discrimination. ATTER RECESS. Mr. Miscampbell resumed the debate on the motion re the volunteers of 1837-8. He denied that the question was raised for political purposes. Mr. O'Connor said that if any reward was to be given it should be given to the rebels as well as to the volunteers of 1837. Mr. Awrey had not been able to find a historian or essayist that did not condemn the Administration of 1837, that drove the Canadians to revolt. The amendment to the amendnaent was then put and carried on the following divi- sion: YEAS—Messrs. Allan, Awrey, Biggar, Bishop, Blezted, Barr (Renfrew), Caldwell, Carpenter, Charlton, Chisholm, Cleland, Conmee, Deck, Davis, Dowling, Dryden, Field, Garrow, Gibson (Hamilton), Gibson (Huron), Guthrie, Harcourt, Hardy, Harty, Kirkwood, Lockhart, McKay (Oxford), Mc- Kay (Victoria), McKechnie, McMahon, Mac- kenzie, C. Moore, Mowat, O'Connor, Paton, Rayside, Robillard, Ross Sharpe, Snider, Stratton, Tait, Waters, Wood (Brant). -44. NAYS—Messrs. Balfour, Barr (Dufferin), Bush, Campbell (Algoma), Campbell (Dur- ham), Clancy, Fell, GIendining, Godwin, Hammett, Hiseott, Hudson, Kerne, Mc- Cleary, McColl, McLenaghan, ldagwood, Marter, Meacham, Meredith, Miscampbell, Monk, Werke, Smith (Frontenao), Tooley, Whitney, Willoughby, Wood (Hastings), Mr. Wood (flastinge) WaS surprised to hear the Attorney -General justify those who took part in open rebelliciii. (Applause.) He desired to move in amendment t� the amendment: "That whether by this Leg- islature or by the Parliament of Canada, this House is of the opinion that the recog- nition should at all events be made." The amendment to the amendment was then put and defeated by 29 to 45. The motion-I:4e* amended was then carried on the same division, The House went into committee and carried the following bills : To amend the law relating to mortmain and charitable uses.— The Attorney - General. To further amend the law reepeeting mortgages and sales of personal property.— The Attorney -General. Respecting the use of tobacco by minors. —The Attorney -General. TO incorperate the Hamilton, Grimsby & Beamsville Electric Railwity Company. -- Mr. Gibstm (Hamilton). Mr. Roes Moved that this House will to. morrow resolve itself into a committee Of the whdle to consider the following resolu- tions : 1. Resolved, That in order to enable the University of Toronto to raise the sane of .$250,000, by the toile of delmnituree on the most advatitageoue terms (all the preperty and effects, realand versional, of the ilniver- eity of Toronto being now vested in QM Crown) tlns Lieutenent.Governor-in-Courmil may provide for the issue of said debentures, and the guarantee thereof by the Province; in which event the prineipal money shall be a first cherge upon the permanent fund of the University of Toronto, and the interest :shall be a first charge on the inoemetund of the said university ; and prineipel and interest shall be paid out of the said permanent and income funds in preference to all other 2. Resolved, That such debentures may be issued, in currency or sterling at the rate of $5 to the pound for principal, and may be made payable in London, Eng., or in Can- ada To consolidate and amend the mining laws—Mr. Hardy. To amend the Act respecting the Federa- tion of the University of 'Toronto and University College with other universities and. colleges—Mr. Ross. Mr. ROSS moved the second reading of a bill respecting voters' lists in unorganized territories. The bill stipulates that voters must have resided continuously in the pro- vince for nine months before voting. The sheriff, or in his absence the police magis- trate, shall prepare the lists, and he shall determine who may vote. Appeals t be made to the district or county jugJ- Mr. Meredith thought the revision Iwo - posed would be very expensiveSand as there would not be an election during the coining year there was no need for the legislation. He thought the bill was faulty, inasmuch as it did not provide machinery for its operation. Mr. Hardy replied that the machinery was provided under the Ontario Voter' Lists and the Manhood Suffrage Acts. Mr. Marter said that all the officials of the Government in his part of the country were offensivd partisans, taking part in e very election and working hard for hon. gentle. men opposite. Mr. edovsat moved the second reeding of a bill to consolidate the Aots respecting compensation to workmen in certain cases. Mr. Meredith thought this measure would serve no good purpose, except to keep the printers employed. On motion of Mr. Mowat it was decided that when the House adjourns on Thursday it stand adjourned until 11 o'clock on Friday morning, and meet each subsequent morning at It for the rest of the session. Upon motion of Mr. Harcourt the House went into committee on certain resolutions to amend the: Liquor License Act. Mr. Harcourt moved that the resolution to authorize the issue of a license to railway companies to sell, in dining or buffet ears, liquors in quantities prescribed for a tavern license under the Liquor License Act to Vona, fide travellers, but not to employees, be amended by substituting "wines and beer " for " liquors." Mr. Waters said he was sorry the Gov- ernment was going back on ita temperance recoid. It was a most dangerous move, and would be condemned by the temperance people of the Province. It was putting the evil on a railway train, the last place where it should be. Mr. Wood (Hastings) said that if wines and beer were allowed to be sold instead of liquors, it was only the thin end of the wedge. ?Ir. Davis thought no retrograde step should be taken. All clutngea should be in the direction of restriction. He regretted the clause and hoped the Government would not persist in it. Mr. Mowat said that as a matter of fact liquor, wine and beer were already sold largely and illegally on trains, and it was impossible to prevent it It there- fore seemed better to license such sales under conditions, and he thought sudh a provision would advance the cause of temperance. Mr. Conmee said that the bill really re- stricted the sale of liquor on trains because it forbade sales to trainmen. He believed it was a step in the right direction. Mr. Ross moved the third reading of his bill respecting the fees of certain public officers. Mr. Wood (Hastings) moved in amend- ment that the suplus income be paid over to the counties and applied to the reduction of the registration fees. The amendment was lost on a vote of 31 yeas and 52 nays. Mr. Kerns moved in a,mendment that the suplus income of registrars of deeds be paid to the councils of counties and cities and applied to the use of ouch county or city. The amendment was lost on the same division. Mr. Clancy moved in amendment that no legislation with regard to the registration of deeds would be satiefaotory that does not confer upon county councils the power to appoint and pay by salary registrars and clerks. The amendment was defeated by a vote of 31 yeas and 52 nays. Mr. Preston moved in amendment that the maximum net income of the officers be as follows: Clerks of Division Courts, 81.500; registrars of deeds, $2,500; sheriffs, $3,000 ; local registrars of the High Court, deputy clerks of the Crown, County Court clerks, and Surrogate registrars, $2,000 ; and that the surplus funds be applied to public uses. The amendment was defeated by a vote of 32 yeas and 52 nays. The bill received its third reading on division. Mr. Gibson (Hamilton) moved the House into committee on a resolution dealing with the compensation of the Secretary and the chief warden and other wardens to be ap- pointed under the provisions of the Act for the protection ot game and fur -bearing animals. Mr. Harcourt moved the House into com- mittee to consider the following resolu- tions : Resolved—(I) That there be granted out of the Consolidated Revenue Fund to the Port Arthur, Duluth 86 Western Railway Com- pany: (a) A cash subsidy of $3,000 per mile and not exceeding in the whole the sum of $21,(00, for tho,construction of seven miles of mill railway from a point at or near the east end of Gunflint Lake to a point at or near Magnetic Lake, to complete the building Of said railway. (b) A cash subsidy of $2,000 per mile and not exceeding in the whole $7,000 for the construc- tion of three and one-half miles of that portion of said railway known as the Kakabeka branch, extending from a point at or near the junction of the said railway with the Kriministitinia River to a point at or near Kakabeka Falls. Resolved—(2) That all tbe provisions of sec- tion 2 of the Act passed in the 52nd year of Her IViajesty's reign, chaptered 35, respecting the option of subatituting half -yearly payments for forty yeara in lieu of a cash paynaent, and all the conditions provided by section 3 of the said Act shall apply to the said grants. Resolved—(3) That for the purpose of forming O subsidy fund, there may be set, apart so much of the lands of the Province belonging to the Crown as lie within the distance of ten roiles on each :side of thoae portions ot the Port Arthur, Duluth & 'Western Railway to which aid shall be granted as aforesaid, which land shall be sold and deelt with in the seine manner at pro- vided in Sections 4 to 10, inclusive. of the Said A.et passed in tho 52nd year of Her 1V1njesty's reign, chentored 35. The resolutions were carried without amendments. Mr. Gibson (Hamilton) moved the House into Committee to consider a bill to amend the Act for the protectibet of game end fur - bearing animals. The 1301 states that the open season for deer sthall be from November Lit till November 15th. Mr. Meredith moved in amendment that any person Upon making affidavit that the deer had been killed before November 15th shall be permittted to transport it up to November 22nd. The amendineat was carried on a vote of 33 to 32, Mr. Gibson moved in amendment that partridge be not sold in the province for two years instead of three, as proposed in the bill. The amendment was earned. Several minor amendments were made and the bill was carried. Mr. Dryden moved the third reading of his bill for the further protective of bees. Mx', Hiscott opposed the bill, on the ground that it was in the fruit-growees' Interests that it ehoulcl not pass. The Gov- ernment might just as well propose a measure to prevent farmers from spraying potatoes. Ile moved that the bill be read three months hence. Mr, Dryden said that when the bill was before the committee the fruit growers ex- pressed it as their opinion that the bee was their best friend and that the bill was in the right direction. The bees were necessary to the fertilization of the blossoms, and. a larger crop of fruit was always obtained where there are plenty of bees. It was his inten- tion to have the bill printed and distributed among the fruitgrowers so as to elicit an expression of opinion before the next session, and besides the bill did not come into force for a year. Mr. McCleary said that no evidence was produced before the committee:: to show that bees were killed by spraying blie fruit trees. Mr. Awrey said the bill would not hurt the fruit -growers' interests because the evi- dence of experts showed that spraying the trees while in blossom was useless. The amendment to read the bill three months hence was put and lost by a vote of 52 to 42. Mr. Davis' bill to incorporate the Ontario Ship Railway Company and Mr. Hardy's bill to amend the :Leon Act were also read a third time. Mr. Awrey presented the report of the Committee on Public Accounts, and moved that the report be adopted. Mn 1Vlarter, before the report was adopted, called attention to some of the matters discussed before the committee. He said that only friends of the Government could do business with public institutions. He said there was nothing wrong with this if the friends of the Government did not 'charge exorbitant prices. He referred to an overcharge in fish, vinegar and anchovy sauces sold to the asylum at Toronto. He quoted prices to establish his contention. The evidence also showed that the wholesale dealers did not allow any discount off for cash. )Ie quoted figures also to show that coal was being supplied to the asylums at Hamilton and Orillia cheaper than to To- ronto. elle hinted that at a meeting of the wholesale dealers who supplied the Govern- ment held previous to the elections in 1886 amounts were subscribed to pay the ex- penses of the election. Mr. Garrow said that the Opposition was much disappointed with the result of the evidence adduced before the committee. There was nothing to show that the Govern- ment was charged more than any other cus- tomers of the wholesalers for goods. The hon. gentleman did not offer any remedy for the present system. Mr. Kerns said that the method adopted by the Government in purchasing supplies for public institutions was wrong. Mr. Hardy defended the present system. He explained the copy of the unsigned letter produced before the committee advis- ing an moresse of pay to some of the public officers. He said the original was signed in ink that would not copy. That was the reason why the signature did not show on the copy. He said all the wonderful dis- coveries of the Opposition in their investiga- tion into the public accounts dwindled down to fish and. tomato sauce. Mr. White also spoke at length on the report. He said that the present system of purdhasing supplies was wrong and unsatis- factory. The motion to adopt the report was then put and carried by a straight party vote of 51 to 31. Mr. Mowat introduced a Bill to confirm the agreement between the Niagara Falls Park Commissioners and the Electrie Rail- way Co. Several other amendments were made, and the bill was reported as amended. Mr. John A. Campbell, St. Sixte Que., writes : "My wife was unwell for four years from irregular periods, brought about by a severe cold. She tried manyremedies, but without relief. Seeing Dr. Widiams' Pink Pills advertised, I procured two boxes and the result is a permanent euro.

Butchers' Market Stalls, Detroit News: When Detroit was a village a few butchers were furnished with a place of business at the city's expense, and for that early day with its bucolic methods the scheme was not so bad. It is otherwise with a metropolis. In village days all of tho butchers were furnished with quarters, and none were discriminated against. In these days a few retail butchers are fostered by the city government as against the greater number. There are 428 retail butchers in the city of Detroit. Out of this great number the insignificant few of 15 are in the central market. The 15 are poli - Melees. The remaining 413 build or rent their own places of business, and have not as yet tried their strength in politicseeither to turn the 15 out or to build a vast struc- ture where low rent might prevail.

A Statement of the Remaraablo llase of Mists Ramsay as Investigated by %Reporter of Le Monde, (140 Monde, April let.) During the past year newspapers in vari- ous parts of the country have chronicled accounts of marvellous °tees from the use of a medicine known as Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People. These remarkable mires, many of them in cases hitherto held by medical science to be incurable, where known as the Hamilton miracle, the Cape Breton miracle, the Detroit miracle, the Saratoga, Co. miracle, eto, and were vouched for by such leading newspapers an the Toronto Globe, Hamilton TIMES, Hamilton Spectator Halifax Heraid, Detroit News, Albany, dsT: Y. fourna/ and others, whose high standing left no room to doubt that the fats were as stated.

Both Mr. Ramsay and his daughter were found to be enbhusiastic in their praises of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, and from the story told the reporter they had excellent reations for their enthusiasm. At the age of 14, said Mr. Ramsay, my daughter was attacked by chorea, more commonly known as St. Vitus' dance. Chorea, it may be mid, is a diseased condition of the nervous system, which may result from feebleness of consti- tution, overstudy, or from a shock or fright, leaving the patient in a more or less helpless condition, control of the limbs being lost. The trouble was brought on through a fright she received at a fire which occurred in our neighborhood. That was more than seven years ago, and those seven years have been filled with un- told misery to my daughter. Her trouble was in the worst form, and until she began using Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, medical science seemed unable to successfully cope with it. When she was attacked, I called in a physician who treated her for a long time, but without the least beneficial re- sults. I felt discouraged, but determined to leave nothing undone that might tend to restore her health, and I accordingly called in another doctor. His treatment seemed to do her some good, but he left for the States and she relapsed into her old condi- tion. I then placed her under the oare of another doctor, whose treatment helped her, but she was all run down and so weak that she couldd, scarcely move about. A year ago last sununcr I wanted to send her to the coun- try, but the doctor said she could go no- where as she was too far gone. He told me that I must get a nurse to take care of her, and that she must be kept in bed, as her blood. was all gone, and she might die at any moment. She lingered on, however, in this condition until last summer, when the doctor gave his permission to take her to the country, and she was away from the city from the first of June until the middle of September, when she came home much improved. But it did not last long, for in about a month she began to fail. again ; bottle after bottle of medicine was taken which would stimulate her a little, when another relapse would come. About this time I saw in the papers the article tell- ing of the ease of Mr. John Marshall, of Hamilton, and I told her I would bring her a box of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. She replied that there was another per- scription for me to get which the doctor had left. I was now determined to give the Pink Pills a trial, and told her to say noth- ing about it, but to try two boxes of pills first. Before the first box was finished we could notice an improvement, and after the second box she was not like the some woman at all. Would you believe it ?— when she had taken the fifth box she actu- ally was able to attend in her household duties, and was not a bit the worse for it. Before she began taking the Pink Pills, if she attempted to sweep out her own room she would be utterly done out. What more can be said in favor of the wonderful merit of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills? Those who know my daughter, and have seen the re- markable changewkich the use of Pink Pills has wrought, can scarcely believe it, but it is a solemn fact, and rnv only regret is that I did not know of the wonderful medi- cine long ago. Since my daughter began to improve Dr. Williams' Pink Pills have been used by many of our friends and neighbors, andsI do not know of a single case in which they have not proved bene- ficial. The above are the facts of the MHO as related by Mr. Ramsay, and they certainly bear the strongest testimony to the great curative properties of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. The facts are also vouched for by neigh- bors, including the family of Mr. J. S. Randolph, the well-known Grand Trunk conductor, who also says that the pills have been of inestimable value in his own family, The remarkable and gratifying results from the use of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills in the case of Miss Ramsay show that they are a scientific preparation designed to enrich and build up the blood and restore shattered nerves, and are a specific for all diseases arising from either of these causes ; that they are also a specific for the troubles peculiar to females and all forms of weak - nese. In the case of young girls who are pale or sallow they speedily enrich the blood, and bring the bright, rosy glow of health to the cheeks. In fact there appears to be no disease dependent upon a vitiated condition of the blood, or sit , ttered condi- tion of the nervoes system 'bat will not speedily yield to a treatment with these pills. These pills are manufactured by the Dr. Williams Al erlielee Co., Brookville, Ont., and Morristown, NS Y., and are sold in boxes (never in bulk by the hundred) at 50 cents a box, or six boxes for $2.50, and may be had of all druggists or direct by mail from Dr. Virilliams' Medicine Co., from either address. The price at which these pills are sold makee a course of treat- ment: comparatively inexpensive as com- pared with other remedies, or medical treatment.
