Subsidy $11,500 a Mile—Enormous Con - 808010n0 Granted. The Government mums sat from 11 to 3 o'clock today. Julius Solver occupied the ohair. There was 8 very large atten- dance of members and Senators. The principal question dismissed was the building of the Crow's Nest Pass Raiiway. Mr. Blair presented the arrangement which the Government had entered into with the Canadian Pacific Railway for the construction of 330 miles of this road from Lethbridge to the mining region at Roseland. The balance of the road through to Penticton, will be to au in• dependent company. In regard to arrangetents with the Canadian Pacific Railway Go., tbe com- pany will get a Dominion subsidy of 011,000 per mile. For this subsidy the Canadian Paoiiie has arranged to matte home very important concessions to the Government. In the first place, they will give over control of the rates west of Fort Wtllbaln to the Government. The railway company will also make a cut of 20 per cent. to a specified number of articles. The list of these articles is supplied to the Government. In wheat, for instance, there will be a cut of 1• cents per bushel made for this year, and 1 cents more next year, or 3 mute in all. Those who have looked into this matter state that the ant in ratee will mean about $$000,000 a year to the farmere of the Province of Manitoba aioue. The Government also takes back 20,• 000,000 acres of coal lands giveleas land grant to the British Columbia Bentham Railway, This coal land will be divided into blouks, and the Government will have first choice, and the railway company second choice of eaoh block. As to the arrangements for the bedding of the road west from Roesland, it was not disoussed at length. The policy of the Government evidently was to give a similar subsidy ail far as Penticton, and in cones() of time continue the road to the Pacific oast. While there were a number of Ontario and Western members, in the first in- etan0e, opposed to going on with the building of the road this year, thinking that nothing would be lost by another year's delay, still when they saw Large 000000siona made by the Canadian Pacific arrangement, they received their support, so that legislation will be proceed with this session, and work of constructing the road will begin at once. It was oleo decided at the canons to go on with the hill iu regard to making the Controllers, Cabinet Ministers, but tbe salaries will, iu all probability, remain as ab present. Business being oder, 8 hearty Pend -off was given to Mr. Laurier, the Premier stating that be was leaving to -morrow morning for England. Ottawa, Oat., June 2. Her Majesty The Queen. On Monday, May 24th, Tier Majesty Queen Victoria entered upon the 79bb year of her age, and in four weeks she will have entered upon the 01st year of her long and glorious reign. The place that the Queen has held iu the hearts of her people, so far from diminishing with time has, on the 000005ry, much increas- ed, and to -day the love and esteem of the British nation for their eovereign is greater than ever. The Queen, who was born at Teeming. ton Palace on May 24010, 1819, was asleep in her bedroom in the palace when the Archbishop of Oanterbury, Dr. Howley, and the Lord Cbamberlain, the Marquis of Conyngleam, brought the intelligence early on the morning of June 21st 1837, of the death of King William IV. The story of how the young Queen received the nova of her accession to power posses - see a deep interest from the extremely commonplace features of some of the circumstances surrounding the occur- rence, It was n raw inormug in June when the messengers arrived at lieueing• ton Palade from Windsor Castle, where the King had died shortly altar midnight, Although on such an important errand, the messengers received but scant atten. tion at the palace ; It twee a long time before the servants could be aroused and when the door was opened the visitors Were shown into a room and left there alone without any further attention be- ing pa'cl to them. A.0 hist they found it necessary to sternly assert their authority and to insist upon seeing the Pi:Meess Victoria, although the Primes' attend- ant when sent for, said that she was in such a deep sleep she eheuld not be dis• turbed, However, fn a few minutes, the Princess entered the room to hear that she was sovereign of the Brandi Empire, It is recorded that at eleven o'clock on the same day that she beard of her aeoee cion the young Queen hold her first swum oil at Kensington Palace, et which she comported herself with quiet dignity and maidenly reserve, not allowing boreell to be in the least flurried or put oat by the novelty of the inane. The British Empire MS then in a very different state to what 11 10 at present; Australia was barely settled, and was best Known from the foot Ant Great Britain's penal eolonie were situated on that colony 1 Canada, west of Ontario, had seemly been surveyed and the development of its resources barely nom. THE BRUSSELS POST nlonced, while the settled dietriote cf Cape Colony were still of bub very email extent, Queen Viotoria is the daughter and only child of Edward, Duke of Kent, the fourth son of George III, Her mother tune Victoria Looioa, the fourth daughter of Franoio, Duke of Saxe.Cobearg• Seelliold, and stater of Leopold I„ King of the Belgians. Among other things said of Iter Majesty, Arthur Warren ropeate eurront report that Queen Viotoria hoe bee little superstitions. Sim believes that articles made by blind persons bring good leek ; that epilling salt brings bad luck—and would probably not give sixpence for her kingdomby Y if an outward dews 13 s r happened ened to sit at the royal d ning tableShe hue her pet dislikes, too, and among tinge ie a hearty detest- ation of nicknames ; another is an antipathy to the smell of furs—partioular. ly sealskins.
