FRIDAY AMY 29th 1870..
ANAMNESTY TO RIEL.
It is commonly rumoured that the mis-
sion of Bishop Tache to this Province; at
the present time, has for its Object, the se-
curing of a pledge from our Gevernment to
ue its inflnence_with the Imperial authori-
ties, to grant a free pardon to Riel and 'his
brother Murderers. It is also stated that
the ambitious Bishop will not rest satisfied
even though he should accomplish this •ob-
ject, but also demands the recall of the mi-
litary expedition which has gone to the
Red River country. *There is nothing like
having plenty of "brass " in this world, and
it is just as easy to ask for a large favour as
- a small one. There- is no denying that
Bishop Voile possesses an abundant supply
of the former; and it would appear that he
is fully aware of the truth of the latter state-
ment. But, will he succeed in his mission?
We would not like to predict that he will
not. The Government who dared to frame,
and who, --to the everlasting disgrace of a
majority of the people's representatives in
the House, be it said, -succeeded in carry -
ng through Parliament, so outrageous and
p
t
ernicious a easure as the Manitoba Bill,
will hardaystiek at recommending a free par -
on for the mmalerer of their fellow-coun-
ry. man. When th e Influence of such small
17 as Father Riehot, and Commissioner
Scott, had so potent an influence with our
G
Tiovernment, as to induce them to concede
9 the Rebels every demand Which they had
rade, and more, grant privileges which
ven they had not the audacity to ask, may
we not reasonably fear that so mighty a
ersonage as Bishop Tache will also -be suc-
essful in having his demands acquiesced in.

Teady the Government organs have come
enced to pave the way for what is te come.

ut it too, is now beginning to see things in
different light. It still opposes,in a mild
a,y,the withdrawal _of the troops, but treats'
he pardoning of Riel as an evil, the perpe-
ation of which can scarcely be avoided,
though much to be regretted. When we
ke into consideration, therefore, all the
"signs of the times," we think the preba
lity is that Bishop Tacbe's mission will
prove successful. -

presentatives are not so pliant, taid the Press
not so easily boughla just so soon -will he
desist from forcing upon the people of this
Province, measures which he knows to be
dista.steful to them, but which will prove of
advantage to himself and his cciuntrymen of
Quebec. Without the aid of the people of
Ontario through their representatives, he
could carry none of his'nefariousc- schemes.
Let that aid be"witheld, and he will either
iro to the wall altoaether, or else he will
direct his energies and talents to framing
legislation which wili be more just and pal-
atable to the people of this Province.
INDIGNATION MEETING.
.At a large public meeting of the inhabi-
tants of Toronto, held on Friday evening
last, for the purpose of protesting against
the granting of an amnesty to Riel and his
co -murderers, the following resolutions were
passed :
Moved by Hon. Wm. McDougall. se-
conded by Alderman Medcalfe, an.d re-
solved -"That the proposal to recall,
at the request of the Rebel Government, the
military expedition, now on its way to Fort
Garry, t� establish law and order, would be
an act of sapreme folly, an abdication of au-
thority, destructive of all confidence in the
protection afforded to loyal subjects by a
constitutional Government -.-a death blow
to our national honor, and calls for a prompt
and indignant condemnation by. the people
of this Dominion."
Moved by Mr. J. D. Edgar, seconded by
Capt. Bennet, and resolved " that the over-
throw by the rids of the existing govern-
ment in the -Red River Territory by -force
of arms, the seizure and appropriation to
their own purposes of private property, the
imprisonment and ili-treatment of Canadi-
ans and loyal natives, the barbarous nmr- t
der of one of their prisoners, Thomas Scott,
the cruel expulsion in mid -winter of those e
who refused to join them in their unlawful s
proceedings and their extravagant derna,nds t
upon the Canadian Government, under the
threat of further outrages, and the transfer
of their allegiance to a foreign country, de- s
prate the leaders of the conspiracy of all e
-sympathy, and call for prompt punishment a
to the perpetrators of such schemes." 8
Moved by Col. G. T. Denison, seconded
by Mr. Andrew Flemming, and resolved P

In consequence of the attitude of Austria
towards Bavaria, and the renewed rumours
of the war -like attitude of Russia, England
has resolved to make preparations for put-

The Pfussians retired, leaving two then on
the field. It is believed that the French lost
10 or 1,2 killed. It is confidentially stated
that the Prussiane. are strengthening Co-
blentz only with the intention of making it
the base of operations, and intend to throw
a force down the line of Saar, and carry an
offensive war into France.
London, July 25. -The inhabitants of
Norderney, and other islands near the
mouth of the Elbe, have removed, in order
to leave the French fleet in those waters
without experienced pilots. Information
has been received that, on .r Sunday, a body

project, all similar in tone. France must
explain this offensive treaty, says the
Times, and the burden of the entire London
press is the same. There is an unusual &c-
avity in the dock ya.rds of England to -day.
A military officer writes to the Tinzes, show-
ing that the Emperor Napoleon will most
probably try to force his way into the old
kthgdom of Hanover. The French report
another cavalry skirmish near tletz, and
claim that the Prussians were beaten and
lost three officers. All persons residina
under the walls of Paris have been notified
to quittheir homes. Space is required for

Bavarian videttes have been seen with
the Pressians. The fact is important, and
shows that the Prussian and South German
forces are completely blended, and the Prus-

North and South German States, Austria

necessary to absorb Belgium, Prussia lends
'her assistance to that measure. The fifth
article is the usual one of offensive and de-
fensive alliance between. the two nations.
The secret treaty projected between France
and Prussia monopolizes the attention here
of the public, the press and parliament. The
greatest indignation is manifested at the du-
pliaity of the powers concerned. The action
of -Napoleon is considered -as insulting to
England. A complete ignorance of ench
negotiation is professed at the French Em-
bassy:. A dispatch from Brussels, with a
short accoani of the treaty projected between
France and Prussia, was printed in the Lon -
Times this morning. It.is perfectly au -
dor
thentic. The Belgian _Government knew of
its existence a short time ago. In the House
of Lords, Earl Granviale, in reply to a ques-
tion from Lord. Stratfoad de' Redcliffee said
he Was unable to state where the Times ola
tamed the text of the treaty. Atter the an-
nouncement of the existence of such a re-
markable document, •a would be the duty of
France and Prussia, immediately and .speci-
fically to explain the matter to Europe. Mr.
Disraeli, in the House of Com mane to -nights
r questioning the foreign officer in re -
1 to the reported treaty, denounced the
eminent for withholding the correspon-
ce on the subject. He declared Enaland
d never have toleratad such propositi-

France is resolved to force Denmark into
boetilities against Prussia, notwithstanding'
the determination of the Danish Ca,binet to
remain neutral. A 'French fleet wil1shert-
ly appear before Copenhagen and make a
movement to cverthrow the Ministry and

themselves. The tone in Englist official

hey were a few days since. Some fears are

ege will be published. Deserters from the
French army are very numerous, and are
ontinually coming in to the Prussian lines.
New York, July 24. -The _Herald's spe-
ia.1 dated Colbentz, 246, says the Prussian
om aar orie crossed the French bore c

on
as the exti ti f tl 1

gium. He hoped the Government would
give all the particulars. Mr. Gladstone said
that he was sorry that the papers 'were not
ready for submission, and he was unable to
give the information requieed or explain how
the project oecame public; its purport cer-
tainly was astoundina. Doubtless the pow-
ers implicated would6explain the mystery.
London, July 26.---Eall Granville, -in the
House of Lords, again referred to the draft
of the secret treaty, alleged to have been
proposed by France to Prussia He said he
had ain interview this afternoon with the
French Ambassador. The latter told him
that the ts'eaty originated with Bismarck,
that it net ei ')tacl a serious basis, and was
rejected by both parties. The- Ambassador
protested that France is actually desirous of
maintaining peace with Belgium, England
and Holland.
Mr. Gladstone informed the House of
Commons that advices from Berlin - settling
the authenticity of the Times' report, regard-
ing the alleged -treaty, were hourly expect-
ed. The British Minister at Berlin had
telegraphed that the dispatch containing the
original proposition of Napoleon, embodied
in the treaty, existed in Beneditti's own
