Thesomeivhat lengthy debate on Mr Dalton McCarthy's resolution regard - jog' the tariff came to a conclusion ear ly on Frtdav evenihlg hist—the vote resulting in a majority of 52 in sup port of the Government's policy. Of Government supporters, the only (nem bers who voted with the meihber for North Sin c.oe were Col. O'Brien and Mr Hodaius. Mr. McCarthy'sspeecll,which occupied several hours, was disetppoint- ing• i11 many ways—ti,iiug back as he did on his pat record ever since the National Polley was edopted, The burden of his prosy rosolutiou was that the''. P. had failed in its expectations --that the time h•td arrived for tent"' reform—and that Parliament should adopt a revenue tariff to relieve the conutry from heavy taxation. Cnri- ously enough, it is only within a few months—that is, since the formation of the new Cabinet—that Mr. McCarthy has turned the corner so sharply in his political creed; and now he has gone hand In ;love with Sir Richard Cart wright,"Laurier, Se, in opposing the present administration and advocating free trade. It is well known that the Finance Minister, following the public announcement made by Sir John Thompson iu Toronto—to the effect that a' the mouldering branches would be trimmed to preserve the tree " of the National Policy—declared in his Budget speech the intention of Govern meet to thoroughly revise the whole tariff at an early day; and for this pur pose the Finance Minister, aided by the Minister of Trade and Commerce and the Minister of Customs, would in- stitute inquiry from deputations and otherwise with a view to meeting the wishes of all classes of the Dominion in re arranging' the tariff. But this did not satisfy the member for North Sim- coe, who could not allow the opportun- ity to pass without attacking the Min ister, and, if possible, of having his re venge by weakening their support. But the vote of Parliament of Friday last shows that Mr. McCarthy had reek oned without his host. Supposing for a moment that his motion for a reve- nuetariff had carried, and the principle of free trade was coneeded,—how in the name of common sense would the country have been benefitted? Free trade has not proved beneficial to Eng- land—the United States has prospered under a protective policy—the nhanu facturing industries of Canada would have suffered by the change—our markets would once more be thrown open to American competition—nopu lotion would decrease owing to our young mets, our artisaus, mechanics land laborer's, leaving the country (as they did in thousands before; the N. P. was inaugurated) to seek employment elsewhere—the home market would thus be ruined for our farmers, ivho would have to compete with almost everything raised in the neighboring States -in fact, the only conceivable advantage to be derived from a reve- ]i ue tariff would be to reduce the cost of British manufactures to the wealthy consumer of imported goods. As fcr the farmers, such a tariff would be ruinous, lir, McCarthy had to admit that the N. P. had given an increased home market to them of between twelye and thirteen million dollars by shunting off American competition, But he quite ignored the facts of an increased population by means of the N. P, and by the opening up of a for eign trade in exports to Great Britain and other countries; he dost sight of the fact that farm implements can be purchased as cheaply in Canada as in the United States, that the tradesmen, mei,hanics, and artisans now purchase farm prodnuts from our ossa people in- stead of letting the money bo out of the eountry, he, forgets that to raise 't • revenue tariff duties must be levied on &setvbhing we cat and drink and wear -seen our sugar, tea, coll'ee, rico and 'a nhumher of articles th i..t'enter into the deity , consumption of fatm iles—asci th1t'we should comp((icd to pay higher for ►nanufaetured goods, au(d perhaps double for the necessaries of lire.

N. Clarke Wallace by his brethren of that clistrtct "My elevation has subjected me to some criticism. It has been said that 1 should have refused to -serve under the Premier, Sir Joh. Thompson, because he was a Roman Catholie, Bat I don't read the constitution of the. Orange association aright if it prevents toe from serving with and wider hint on account of his religion. The groat majority of my brethren have no.sym- pathy with such narrowness and bigot r•y as that, The grand lodges of Onta- rio west and east, representing three fifths of the Oraugeuleu of British North America, have passed resolutions by large majorities. congratulating Inc upon the honor which his been bestow ed upon pie. The essence of Oraugeism is toleration,. I know Sir John Thomp son well, and I know that he is a royal and patriotic man, When Sir John Macdonald died • the Governor General offered Sir John Thompson the Prem- iership—that is, asked hitn to form a government; but Sir John Thompson declined to accept the honor, and re commended instead a good Orange- man, Sir. Jolla Abbott. (Applause.) I believe that our present Premier does not owe his position to his religion. but solely to his surpassing abili'y •as a statesman. Our duty as Canadians is to exercise one n 0 0 o toward an- other when we cannot agree in relig- ious matters." Mr. Wallace touched upon the Manitoba school question and said: " I have con tidenee that ample justice will be done in the matter. It has been charged that the Dominion Government has pursued different courses in this case and the case of the Jesuits' estates matter. This is not so. The Dominion Government has pur sued the same course in both cases.. itt the latter case the Government granted to the Protestant minority of Quebec the right to be heard in appeal under the ninety third section of the BRA.. washearing Act Ada} Hied fir the heallne of the appeal, but the Protestant min. Pritl leve:( t99l; nclpgillta r1 pf the.' Government's consent to hear this ap peal, but made a fresh bargain with Premier Mercier." Mr. Wallace inti mated that, inasmuch as the Vatican has, through a papal munein, endorsed the public school system of the United States, it would probably not strenuo usl-v oppose the establishment of purely non-sectarian sellools in Manitoba," MOW Seed Testing and Distribu- tion of Seed Grain, To THE EDITOR Op T1n8 ADVOCATE. SI1L,— Knowing that farmers generally are much interested in the above Subject; permit me to place before your readers the following:— SEED TESTING. The work of testing the germinating' power of glair and other agricultural seeds is now in active progress at the Central Experimental Farm in Ottawa Up to the present over 1,600 samples have been tested and reported on this season, and on the whole with very gratifying results, showing a good per- centage of vitality 'l'hereare, however some districtsin the Dominion from which samples have been received of very poor quality and quite unlit for seed. In some parts of Manitoba the harvest season of 1801 was very un- favorable and considerable quantities of grain were left out in stock or stack all winter and threshed in the spring 1392. A number of sa -pies of such grain have bean tested and they show a very low percentage of vitality,nianv of them ranging ftotn 15 to 411-' per cent, only, and are quite unfit for seed is some other parts of the Dominion, and especially in some sections of On. tario and (.,ueliec, the weather during the last harvest period was very wet. and the grain in the stook was suhout to repeated"ivettiegs before it could be housed. and in the meantime some of it sprouted. A large proportion of such samples also show a low degree of ger rnittating power, and if shown as seed will be likely to result in poor crops. Any farmer's desiring to send fur ther samples for tetat should forward them without delay tl,e packages should contait about one atlnl:e, each, Ind they can be sent to the Experi meet al Varna flee through the mail. Tile samples are tested and reports can tts, tinily be furnished in about tea drays after the gratin is received.. Star Drs-rrtteur.lo'.
