On the meeting of the House. of Com- -mons a question of privilege was .raised by ML Mackenzie on the receipt of the Tariff Bill from the Senate, the words Used being_ that it was returned " without amend a e He held that this implied a power :to make amendments in a Supply Bill the Senate did not -possess. After some conversation a precedent was found. i.n the journals -et the Imperial Parliament in.1867,-and the mat, ter thea dropped. Mr. Mason (Terrebon- sie) had.rpad in the Kouveati :Monde that the Indians in the North:West intended to drive the'inhabitants out of the Territery, and wanted_ to know what truth there is in it? Hon Mr. 11,1eDougall and Mr. Macken- zie both made statements showing there was no truth in. the. ruisiour. On the debate on the North-West Vote being resumed, Mt. Masson (Soulages) objected to it as inexpe- dient, and thought the whole responsibility (should be borne 'by the Imperial Govern- ment. Mr, Gaucher, after full considera- ,tiont should support the vote. Sir Get). E. Castiersaid the force would be led by a Bri- tish`officer and be direeted by the Imperial authority. In view of the withdrawal of British troops from the Colonies, he thought they had made a vety 'satisfactory arrange- ment. Mr. Macdonald. (Glengarry), thought triey had arrived at a most dangerous poei- tior, but could not now recede from it. Mr. Dufresne felt hirsiself, though With sor- row, obliged Is) opposeithe Government. Mr. Gibbs hoped the,araendmsmt Nitould be with- drawn. Hon; Mr. Dorion thought the Bill a measure of concilliations and that the ex- pedition would destroy the effect of that measure. It would cost $1,000,000, and whilst one thousand men was not a suffici- ent force to subdue resistance, it was enough to excite antagonism. Mr. Scatcherd pro- mised the support of Ontario members to the Government: It was no use to pass the Bill without sending a forne to ensure its due reception. .. Sir F. Hincks said that a, Prdvisional Gpvernm, ent was now. acting in the Territory without law or constitutional right. The money had been paid, and it was necessary to send a force to secute that the Queen's authority should be reapetecd. In a conversation that ensued Sit G. E. Car- tier stated that the money bad been paid several days, and the Territory, therefore, transferred to the Crown. An Order in Council -would therefore soon declare its annexation to the Dominion. Mr, Mac- kenzie than expressed his regret at the re- marks of the Hon. Mr. Dorion, and said be did not care whether the amendment was pressed or not. Were there a 'dozen men 111 the House with so little manliness or honesty as to allow rebels to drive loyal men from the Territory, seize theirproperty, .and even take life ? He ieferred to the proceedings of -Rids mock. Leg,isjature -and of its dealing with the Crown Lands as that House would not have dared to do., In a very spirited speech thehonmember de- clared that the first duty of a nation was to - make its authorities respeeted, that crimes against the law Must be punished, Murder- ers brought to account and the power of the Crown asserted, if the force it was proposed' to send were not sufficient send more, five, ten, twenty thousand men if necessary; but let order above all things be restored. .er let them do that or cease to be a nation. Sir F. Hincks reminded the House that the Act required the transfer of theTertitoty Ly- the Crown to Canada within a month, or it would be void. Hon. Mr. Cameron assert- ed that the loyal persons -from the Territory were satisfied with the Bill. Mr.- Macken- zie had authority for his, statement to the , contrary. Hon. Mr. Carling, being appeal- ed to by Hon. Mr. Cameron, Said that Dr, Schultz had expressed his satisfaction on the' whole with the Bill. Hon. Mr. Itsitoa thought they should not pass the resolution without.having before them the correspon- dence .between the Imperial' and Dominion Governments on the subject. Mr. Macdo- nald (Glengarry) said they had a right to see the correspondence when they liad to. foot the bill. Mr. Leeds supported the re- solution, and agreed with the speech of Mr. Mackenzie. Mr. Masson (Soulanges) was -willing, if theillonse desired it, to withdra, "his aieendment. This Was done, and . the reselution was then carried. A suggestion was made by Mr. Macdonald (Glengarry) further to reduce the vote for secret service from $75,000 to $50,000, bet after e.xplan- tions from Sir George E. Cartier, the ainount. -was allowed to stand as agreed on the pre- vious evening-. After some formal business, the Bills o•ii Exchange and Promissory Notes Bill fit.: the Senate, was discussed, and on Ole motion of Sir. G. E. Cartier the debate UV adjourned till to -day. Sir G. E. Cartier then moved the second reading of the Fisheries Protection Bill. The Bill was read a second time, and the rules of the House beings by consent suspended, was read a third time immediately afterwards and passed. Sir 6.. E. Cartier then moved the removal from the Orders of the Supreme Court Bill, and also the Secretary of State for the Provinces Office Bill. The °House then went into Committee on the Official Assignees Bill, which was subsequently read e: third time and passel 7The third reading of the Supply Bill being moved, Mr. _Tremblay proposed an amendment to the same effect as the one withdrawn by Mr. Masson early in the afternoon. On a division, the amendment was defeated by— . .._ yeas, 13; nays, 69. Mr. Mackenzie then moved to amend the Sill by adding a decla- ration preventing th'er.-eMployment of mem- bers of the House as Commissioners engaged in the assimilation of the laws. Sir Geoige 'Cartier defended the appointment of, Hen. sCol. Gray in that capacity. On a division there were—Yeas, 34; nays, 43. The Bill swas read a third time and passed. Mr. Mackenzie said that in the absence of the Premier he should forbear to review, as he had intended, the events of the session. Un- der the circumstances, to do so would be un- kind and ungracious. He expresed the deepest sympathy with the family of Sir John .A. Macdonald, and his sincere hopes for the Ministei.'s recovery. Sir George, E. Cartier acknowledged Mr._ Mackenzie's con- siderate and generous conduct in suitable terms, and the House then rose at midnight. The Dou.a3r Bible. Tne Council of Trent which closed its tedious session of eighteen years in 1563 forbade the possession or use of the Scrip- tures in the vulgar tongue by a laymau ex, cept he procure a permit from his confessor; or from the inquisitor. And they made it a penal offence for any booksellor to sell a Bible to -a layman, without permission:from the Romish authorities! But before' the close of that Council the world had been blessed with four complete translations of the New Testament. , Wickliff's made its appearance in 1380; Tyndale's in 1534; Cranmer's in 1539; and the Geneva in 1557. Theicommon people hungered for the -Word t and the little given out by the ,Roma,nhieratchy from their Bibles, el-as;ned to high pulpits, or hidden away in c srs and monkish cells, only intensified their hunger. Luther's reformation was working like leaven. A tide of free thought had set in. Men began to cultivate individuality, and the Romish Chureh found it impossible to longer withhold the Bible frem the com- mon people. Hence in the year 1582, they printed an English translation 'of the New Testament in Rheims ; and twenty-seven years afterward they published an English translation of the -old Testament in two volumes, which, in consequence of its having been made in Douay, is called the Douay Bible. This is the only kanslated ScriP- tures into English used .by the Romanists. The Rheims translation of the New Tes- tament is claimed TO be the work of three snen—Wm. Allen, Gregory Martin. and Richard Bristow. The first of these was Principalatf St. Mary's Hall, Oxford, and Canon of York, in the reign of Queen Mary, but on the accession of her Protestant sis- ter, he fled ta London; and afterward to Douay.. He was subsequently appointed to a canonry in Rhein* where he establish- ed a Popish seminary, aud Made himself conspicuous in his oppesition to Protestan- ism, for which he was rewarded with a pre- sent of a Cardinal's hat and an Archbishop- ric. But Gregory Martin seems to have been chief translator. It is said of him that he went beyond others in his time in hu- • man literature.' Oh the title page of the Rheims Testament we have the following : All things that are readde in holy. Scrip- tures, we must heare. with gred-t attention, to our instruction and salvation, but those things especially must be -commended to memory which.make most against Heretik- es ; whose deceits Cease not circumvent and beguile all the weaker sort, and the mole, negligent persons.' Tie motto of these translators -was ,,not, Seareh the Scriptiiret,'. but Hear the Chrtreh,' and to this they adhered with the most stubborn persistency. Their marginal notes are chiefly controversial, and are de- signed to guard the resder against any view in conflict With Romanism. - They send it forth explained by tradition, and to be fur- ther explained by. the priesthood. In the preface they say, We have also set forth reasonably large innotations, thereby to show the SW CHOU s reader, in most places pettaining to the controversies of the time, both the heretical corruptions and false de- duetion.s, and also the apostolic tradition, the expositions of the holy fathers, the de- crees of the Catholic -Church, and the most ancient Councils, which means whosoever trusteth not for the sense of the Holy Scrip- tures, but had rather follow. his priN ate judgement, or the aarogamt spirit of these sectaries, he shall worthily, through his Own wilfulness, be deceived,' etc. As they were forecd into the publication of an English Bible, by public opinion, they seem to have studied to make it as unintelligible as Ipos- sible. Hence we have such words as che,' ozymes,' neophyte,' etc. .A.nd by translating it from a translationttliey get as Tar as possiblefrem the language of the Holy Ghost. omanists claim that the Latrn text out of which their New Testament was transla- ted, is pure, even superior to the Greek text itself. But for this claim a very un- fortunate cireunistance 0001111 ed Eight years after the conipletion.of their English translation, a new version of the .Latin Vulgate was published under the Pontiff- ei cal sanqtion of Sixtus Ve who declared that ti the then existing copies were so defective n as to require this _new version. And it in would seem that even the infallibility of 9 Sixtus was insufficient to purity the Vul- ce gate -16)4, for the next Pope declared this th new version exceedingly faulty, and order- ci ed another revision of the Vulgate, which n accordingly was published under the au- ei spices ofClement VII. Two Latin texts — wiere thus placed' before the public within a few years after the Rheims translation was peblished. Then the Testament used by the Ronsish Church wastranslated otit of a text which' Papal infallibility declared to be corrupt. Two. Popes (both infalliple, of eourse). declared it so! Sixtus V. declared tile text from which Mien, Martin and Bristow translated the Rheims Neiv Testa- ment, to be corrupt, atd ordeted.a.revision of that text; but the next Pope declared both corrupt, and ordered the text revised again! And the New Testament translat- ed out of this corrupt text, is the only New Testanient Catholics are allowed to read. - 01111.- Thebest selected Stock of Boots and Shoes in Seaforth, at' Coveutry's.

Passsaic county, New Jersey, inconsequence of the rise of 'a new sect called "Jehovah -'s Band," which is to have supplanted a favo- rite station in. the Methodist Church. The Methodists have vainly tried, to destroy the heresy, but have been forced to subside. The Newark Courier says of this sect :— " The peculiar forra of worship develops itself in pulling, blowing, whistling, shout- ing, jumping, wrestling, falling to the floor, and rolling °vet and kicking. Both women and men engage in the exercises. Baptism is by immersion ita the village mill -pond, in the dead houi of the night. .Sunday they hold continious servicesami take a re- cess for meals only, refusing -to read a news- paper, or even to receive a letter on that day. Even Sunday evenings they hold their meetings rn a school house, until a dif- ficulty about the candles used caused- them . - to leave, and now they meet at any house in the neighborhood where the spisit manifests itself. " John Rhinesroith, a wealthy and well - .to -do farmer of the neighiporhood, is the chief man of the band, and ilepently had his house rebuilt especially to aocomodate the brethi•en-; one room resting on strong beams, it stands the jumping; but about a Month ago an ardent member, in a. parox.ysin of fanaticism, declared that when filled, with the Holy Ghost he felt as light as air, and even though they jumped upon a looking - glass, they would not so much as bruise it ,with a scratch; whereupon hebee.ban to leap upon ag stove -hearth, and broke it Offs and then leaping 'upon the top, broke in thefrail covers,- and finally smashed a big reeking - chair before be subsided.

One of the band told a reporter that as he .wasat work in the.barn he got the spirit, and that he ran one mile o vet .ditches . and fences before the tpirit left him, and all this - time be was so elated that he thoUght he was flying. When jumping in 'ecstacy of' the Holy Ghost, they say their spirits rise far above their bodies. They permit no .persons excepting those belonging to the band to join with them in singing or jump- ing, or any other of their exercises, although no objection is made to the . attendanee of outsiders at the meeting of the band. A dozen wil have the floor at once, ounding and kicking, and the whole crowd eems working up to a, fearful state of ex- tement—son-ia jumping until they ; ie women shrieking in the wildest man- er, and others praying, whistling andpuff- g as for a Wag,er ! They permit no le,vity n the part of young folks during their pro- edings. Mr. Cobb, one of the band, is ought to be growing insane under the.ex- tement of this religious frenzy. There is o -doubt that the members of the band are ncere, enthusiasts. The society now num- over five hundred..
