the hands of an innocent party, who pre-

of Chancery decid.ed that the maker of
the note was liable for its face, because
through negligence he did not draw a

.might offer to establish the fact that he

that when Hon. Bina, Flint made up his
mind that Wallbridge should go out and
Bowen should go in, the task WW1 already
half done.. The election was over;
Bowell, the Tory candidate, was elected.
He has held that seat ever since, and.
never since that time has ally one been
aware of the political standiug of Senator
Mr. Bowen is even more cif an grange -
men than he is a Tory. In his pblitical
party he has only held about a fifth ran k,
not beinhe possessed of the abilitrrequi-
site to rise higher; but in the Orange or-
der he has for some time *stood at the
head of the list and filled the office of
Grand Master. We find him, then,
moving to summon Attotney-Geueral
Clarke to the Bar of the House in order
to draw from hitn testimony which
should prove Louis Riel to be a fugitive
from'- justice, and, therefore, un worthy
to hold a seat in the House of Commons.
The case has been conducted by him,
with some skill, partly bis own, and
paWy borrowed from Palmer, who site
beside him, and. from Kirkpatrick (the
man who thought John A. made the:
crops good) who sits behind him. I have
said that Mr. Bowell 18 adore stronglyi
attached to Orangeism than Toryism.=
As the case proceeded it has been plaiu.
