pied Mr. B e'e old seat, asked if the
Government bad any further explana-
tions to a e !respecting their poicy, 1-1
On the opening of the House, after
routine. Hen. Mr. Scott proceeded to re-
ply to the attacks made upon him, re-
marking that frpm the authoritive tone
in, Which Mr. Cameron had addressed
the Route he (Nr. 0.) did noti-egardthe
presence of the late Premier as of muoh
importanee. Mr. Scott, after smite in-
ttoductory remarks, took up the charges
seriatith. The first was that he was the --
paid advocate' of the lumber trade. This
he emphatically denied, and stated that
fel. the last twenty' years he had not -re-
ceived $50 a year from the professional
business given to him by the lumber
trade. With two exception e he had
neeer even in his professional capacity as
lawyer been employed by any man en-
gageatred in the /umber trade. Another ac-
e,
ad
that he had recebirleisdii)nacleyd
for assisting to get private
through the House., lie denied this
charge also, and. said he had never re-
ceived a single farthing for such services,
but on the contrary had been considei -
ably ' out of pocket. The next charge
was that there had been some under-
standing -between him and the Premier
upon his entering the Government,
-whereby the Canada Central Railway
Company would receive a grant of land.
Mr. Scott entered fully into the history
of this Company and pointed •out the
legal grounds upon which they claimed.
a land grant. He stated that this Mt -
ter was not even referred to in his eon-
versations with Mr. Blake, end in eider
• to show that it had nothing to do with
his taking office, he -stated-that before
the House met the late Government had
agreed to leave it to the Court to decide
whether the Company were entitled. to a
land grnt. Up to that time the late
Premier had refused to allow the matter
to go to the Court, and had. only done
sd the, in order, if possible, to induce
Mr. Scott to accept the Speakership. Ac3.
cordingly, en December 4th, Mr. Carling
telegraphed to Sir. John A. Macdonald as,
follows :---"Sandfield seems to think he
offers everything any one can reasobably
ask. He offers to leave to the Court the

defined their poeitioze the Opposition
consists of just two gentlemen-Mr.IAL.
C. Caineron, the leader, and Mr. H. S.

This, the soIe remnant in the -Ontario
Houee of the great Conservative paty,
may be briefly described by saying -that
the leader Le worthy of his follower, end
the folloiver of his leader. Turning
the Reforra side of the House, it is not "!
ticeable that, notwithstanding all 'the'
talk about disaffection and dissatisfa-
tion in the _Reform ranks, no a single '
Reformer expressed any disappoval ef
the cotrse taken by the Premier. Mr.
Sexton, Mr. Sinclair, Mr. Perry and, Mr. , 1
Galbraith spoke, and all of themexpress-
.
d their candid approval of the composi-
•
ti -o4 of the Cabinet. The remarks of
11,1 Galbraith were of particular inter- .
st; because the Opposition had -tried. to
reatethe impression in the couatry that
e had been greatly wronged in not be -
rig taken into tbe CAI -duet as an eastern
nen instead of Mr. Scott, He deelared
iat he had never _expected a seat in
he Covernment, and that if any Of his
onstituents felt annoyed, as had been
ated, that he had not been offered.
at, he had never heard of it. Mr.
Blake wound up the debate by a general- -
view of the position. In -his conclude
g remarke he clahiied that his Govern-
ent was
cept it, and that. had the Government
not proposed him the Opposition would
have done so, and would have elected
him. With respect to his acceptance of
a seat in the Cabinet, tepeated his ex- ti
planations that he had never acted per-
chally -with the late Premier, and had
never defended.his Government, that he 8-t
had stated to several members of the se
last Parliament that rather than pledge
himself again to support the Government
of Mr. Sahdfield Macdonald he would: in
re
prefer to retire from public life; and the
closing remark- of his speech to his con- 1113
-
stituents at his nomination last spring
was that in all probability he would be an
found in oppoition. As to the chew w

a been declared by its ieaders in 1867
be defunct; it had cOmmitted politi-
1 suicide, ; its leaders 'had declared that
ere was 'no longer any reason for its ex -
epee ; it had beconae merged in the
alitiott party ; Mr. Sandfield Mc -
that the Government was a Coalitio, ha
he stated that when Mr. Blake ask61. to
him to join the Govermnent they discs- ea
sed the subjects that were likely to ante th
in the House, and he found there wasla ist
perfect harmony between his views' and Ce
the Premier's. The Government had
been called a coalition ; but he denid
that; arid he referred to the fact that
Mr. Gladstone, formerly a Conservatied
and Mr. Cardwell, eat at the same board. eel/
in a Liberal Government with Mr. po
Blight, and yet no one in England called • Co
that a coalition. The present Govern- ly
ment was no coalition ; there was no me
difference of opinion between him and see
his colleagues. At the conclusion of joi
Mr. Scott's speech, Mr. Cameron sought jet'
to draw out of him the distinct state- h
meat whether he was now a
CoNSEM-ATIVE OR A REPORMER.
(maid lid in his speeches repeatedly
boasted of having brought over the Con-
servaive party to his views, and not a
single Conservative leader had re udiat-
that -boast. Wll, such being the
sition of what was once known as the
necrvative party4 was there any earth-
ma- on, Mr. Blake asked, why the
niber for Otawa, being fully in
npathy with his views, should. not
n, and why he ehould not ask him to
1, the Reform government ? Now,
ye at was Mr. Scott? Mr. Blake lane-
swered. this questien in this w -ay.
challenged any man to deny that the
programme of Minieterial policy, as ex -
gained by himself and the other minis-
ters was an embodiment of Reform
principles. Well then, Mr. Scott had
himself, stated that what that programme
made him that he was this day. Mr.
Blake concluded by challenging an ap-
peal to the division list. 11, -as had heels
charged, be hnd een guilty of au out-
rage upon public decency and public
morality, surely it was the duty. of the
Opposition to place their views upon the
record of the journals, so that they might
when the proper time came appeal to the
country against him. Mr. Cameron was
not so imprudent as to accept this
challenge, and the debate closed with
Mr. Blake's speech. PoNTiAc.,
Mr. Scott replied that if the Eon. Gen-
tleman would tell him, what were the
priaciples of the Conservative party he
would tell him whether or not they were
his principles. What the speech of the
Premier m declaring the policy of the
Government and his own utterances
niade him that he was. After some
further interrogations; Mr. Cameron at
otclock took the floor and speke till
ten, with the exception of the hour and -
a -hal f during recess. He read long arti
elcs fromthe 0/obe and from speeches of
Reformers against coalitions, and .only
succeeded in wearying, thin House. Bis
chief objection to the Goverument was
that it was a coalition; and vet all the
while he professed his belief that a coali
ion was the hest thing for the country
f Itetorraers believed the Government
0he a coalitionit would be quite cell-
istent for them to oppose the Qovern-
lent on. that ground. bat the fact that
ot one of them bas done so is a sufficient
indication that they regard the Govern-
ment as a pure Reform Goernment.
MR. Wi2OD'S RESIGNATioN.
?jr. Blake eriallenged Mr. Cameion to
produce the proofs of the charge he had
made before the Chrietmas holidays that
corrupt practices had been employed to
iuduce Mr. Wood to resign the Treasur-
ership. Mr. CamerOn challened Mr
lake to deny it...eThe denial of j Mr.
lake was prompt and emphatic. Mr.
anteron then said he would ask for a
ommittee of Enquiry on the subject,
d notwithstanding the subsequent de-
al of Mr. Wood, placed. a notice on the
per to that effect.
