The Fenian Raid Claims: In the .Rouse, on Monday, Mr, :Jartwright moved the House into lommittee to consider the resort :ions m relation to the withdrawal if the claims of the Dominion of ianada against the United States :or compensation on account of in - Furies arising from the Fenian. raids, E- e expressed regret, which he be- [ileved all would feel, that the claim had been withdrawn by the commis: ;loners. He believed the people of England would feel sore and humili- ated in being compelled to make at- onement for these wrongs on us, that the United States would enter- tain anything but a high opinion of ha power of England. Re believed he Fenianswould be stimulated tail eater exertions by the concession of the British Government. Sir G. E. Cartier contended that - as the claims were withdrawn through the neglect of Britain the acceptance of a guarantee was not a humiliation, but rather an evidence of the determination_ of Britain to defend the Dominion at all hazards. The resolution was irrevalent and:. should be withdrawn. Hon. W. McDougall agreed with the sentiments eipressed by Mr. Cartwright, but thought the resolu- tions should not be passed, as they were ineffecta vote of censure on the Imperial Government. Mr. Harrison moved in araentt ment that the Hoose does not con-, sider that the interests of thePo- minion will be promoted, or the lotions now happily existing between the mother country and Canada strengthened,, -by an ..expression , f opinion on the subject of the with p by the dr:awal of the Fenian claims Imperial Government from the con- sideration of the commission. 1r. Blake said it appealed from the tone adopted bythe Ministry that the Government might express their dissatisfaction with the policy of the Imperil Government but the Hoose could not. By reference to the public correspondence he show- ed that the Government had used language which they contended the b House could not employ. He moved in amendment ' to the amendment '-- That • this H'ause concurs naditila v'esws expressed by the Cru F Goverement .fiith reference to, t e the Fenian raids is the subject of Ise Julys minute - of Council, dated minuteTThe E=' 1870, in the following words ' ee Committee of the Privy Col nes f ee it their duty to express very str We 1r1�' := f 0 lir to your Excellency forthe in O motion of Her Majesty's • MAS 10, 1872 anent the deep sense entertained by the. people of the "Dominion of -all wades of party that they have not deceived from Her Majesty's Gov- ernment that consideration which, as loyal subjects of Her .Majesty, they ,hada right to claim,' . and in .their winutes of Council, dated 28th July, 1871, the following words : The principal, cause of difference between Canada and the.

He then charged t a In o a the Opposition w>< ' h ply g l y lty .or disloyalty for political purposes, as occasion. suited. He made no .charge against members personally, .but men were known by the com- pany they kept. He deWed the ,.course of the British Commissioners in abandoning the Fenian claims, and claimed that the Canadian Gov- Fernment had secured , important ad- vantages by way of .compensation. Hon. Mr. Mackenzie replied in. caustic language, charging the Pre- mier with always running off to side --issues, personal and other, when driven into a corner by more power- ful arguments than those of his own side. - He replied to Sir John A. Macdonald on. the accusation against the Opposition of disloyalty when it suited party purpose. He referred in an amusing manner to the past records of the members on . the treasury benches, and said that on every occasion in which disloyalty had been shown in Canada the principle leaders in the movement were Tories. The House thendivided on Mr. Blake's amenclment,awhich was lost. ' --'Yeas, 57 ; nays, 100. Mr. Harri- son's amendment was carriedon the same division. THE . MARKETS. Fall Wheat..

TORONTO, May 9, 1872. - The Liverpool'market showed an ad - Vance in wheat of 2d per cental in spring and red winter, and 4c1 per cental in white. Wheat was excited in the West and quoted 7c higher in Chicago, and 5c in Milwaukee. In New York wheat was also tending upward. Flour in Montreal was active at higher prices. In Sympathy with the tone of - outside mar- kets Toi onto holders were asking extreme rates here, .both for wheat and flour. - or with a company formed of the .different companies seeking incorpo- ration,or the Government may grant a charter to capitalists with- out the intervention of Parliament. Ser lh is the substance of Sir George ,--Cartier's statement. ' Success in managing this elephant depends largely upon the set of cirduin- Stances under which the job is `un- •dertaken. .It would be difficult to find itt history a parallel to the at- tempt by four millions of people to accomplish such a task in less than a decade.
