Opening of Parliament.
SPEECH FROM THE THRONE.
On Wednesday at three o'clock p. m.,
His Excellency the Governor General
proceeded in State to the Chamber of
the Senate in the Parliament Build-
ings, Ottawa, and took his seat upon
the Throne. The member's of the
�„e being assembled, His Excellency
plerifed to command the attend-
ance of the House of Commons and
that House being present, His Excell-
ency opened the fifth session of the
seventh parliament of the Dominion of
Canada with the following speech :-
Honorable Gentlemen of Senate ; Gentlemen
of the Home of Commons :—
It is with much satisfaction that I
again have recourse to your advise and
assistance in the administration of the
affairs of the Dominion. By the sud-
den and lamented death of the late
Right Honorable Sir John Thompson,
Canada has sustained a grievous loss.
The deep and heartfelt sympathy ex-
pressed by Her Most Gracious Majesty
the Queen, and the manifestations of
sorrow with which the distressing in-
telligence was received throughout the
Empire, as well as tokens of esteem
and respect everywhere paid to the
memory of the deceased statesman,
have been gratefully appreciated by
the people of Canada.
Satisfactory assu",antes have been
received from Her Majesty's Govern-
ment respecting the interpretation of
certain clauses in the treaty of coni-
merce with France, ratifications will
be exchanged as soon as necessary
legislation has been passed.
The recent action of the imperial
Parliament, enabling the various
Australasia Governments to enter into
preferential trade relations with the
.other self-governing Colonies of the
Empire, affords gratifying proofs that
the suggestions of the Colonial Con-
ference are being favorably entertain-
ed by Her Majesty's Government.
In conformity with a recent judg-
ment of the Lords of the Judicial Com-
mittee of the Privy Council, to the
effebt that the dissentient minority of
the people of Manitoba have a con-
stitutional right of appeal to the
Governor-General in Council against
certain Acts passed by the Legislature
of the Province of Manitoba, in rela-
tion to the subject of education, i have
heard in Conned the appeal and my
decision thereon has been communicat-
ed to the Legislature of the said Pro-
vince.
The papers on the subject will be
laid before you.
The depression in trade which has
prevailed throughout the world tor the
past few years has made itself felt in
Canada, but fortunately toa less degree
than in most other countries. Al-
though this has not resulted in any
considerable decrease in the vohune of
our foreign trade, yet owing to low
prices and recent reductions in and re-
moval of taxation, it has been followed
by a serious decrease in revenue deriv-
ed from customs and excise.
In order to produce equilibrium be-
tween revenue and expenditure for the
coming year, it will he neeessary to
observe the greatest possible economy
in the appropriations for the various
branches of the public service.
During the period that has elapsed
since the last session of Parliament, I
have hacl an opportunity of visiting
many portions of; the Dominion, in-
clning the Maritime provinces, Mani-
toba, the Northwest Territories and
British Columbia. ''Throughout these
tours i have been impressed and grati-
fied by man ifestations of an abounding
loyalty and public spirit.; and notwith-
standing the phase of trade depression
already referred to, i observed every-
where unmistakable signs of that con-
fident hopefulness in the future, based
on a thorough belief in the greatness
of the resources of Canada, which is
one of the characteristics of her people,
and which furnishes a good augury
and pledge of further development and
progress.
The Government, of Newfoundland
having intimated its desire to renew
negotiations looking to the admission
of that colony into the Dom inion tit

ers have recently met in conference 11.

Measures relating to bankruptcy and
insolvency and to joint stock com-
panies will he laid before you. You
will also he asked to consider certain
amendments to the insurance Act, to

mert o/ the (louse of Commons :—

the important duties devolvin upon

Ottawa.
Special Newe-RScOLLD corrctpoudence.
APRIL 18m.
This was a red-letter day for Ottawa.
Parliament opened with its customary
ceremonies. The weather was simply
sublime, and all things else, to the
uninitiated eye of your humble scribe
seemed to be fashioned tetter the sante
pattern. The trains, last night and
this morning, rolled in with their
precious cargoes of Legislative brains
from all parts Of the Dominion. They
are a cordial lot of men ; good natured
jokes and much hand -shaking are
supplemented by friendly smiles from
beneath the shade of towering silk hats.
They seen, to put up at the Windsor,
Grand Union or Russell, according to
the height, of these hats. There be
talose again, Wllo are content to shlu'e
the shelterof humbler roofs. Altoget her
Canada has mason to be proud of he
representative sons and fathers. Old
men, whose hair has turned grey in
the political arena, are here ; and some
whose hair has almost disappeared are
here also. By one o'clock a crowd
began to assemble on Pat•linment Hill,
and at '2.:•30 time was a perfect jam in
the lobby and stairway leading to the
senate gullet y. Fierce looking guards
stood behind the gates and would not
open until the appointed time. In the
Meantime many persons, both ladies
and gentlemen, got more squeezing
than they could well appreciate.
Eventually the gates swung open
and we fell into the current and went
up to the gallery. We found the dress
gallery already filled with a wreath of
female beenty arrayed in all the fan-
tasy of the 10th century, at which
Solomon and the lilies might stand
aghast. Fully 1,1)00 people:soon')ecu-
led the galleries. In the auditorium
below sat the Senatbrs. The wives
and daughters of these and other
dignitaries were present in great num-
bers and full dress.
A few minutes after three the boom-
ing of cannon on Nepeau Point, as a
vice -royal salute announced the ap-
proach of His Excellency the Gnvernor-
General. He was escorted by the
Guard Band, Foot Guards and the
Princess Louise Dragoons, Lord Aber-
deen's carriage was drawn by four
handsome black horses. The ladies
carne in separate vehicles.
On his entry to the Senate Chamber
MI :arose. Lord Aberdeen took his
place, with Sir McKenzie Bowell in
the place of honor to the right. The
"Knight of the Black Rod" was now
despatched to the House of Commons
to summon the members. They soon
arrived, headed by the speaker and the
Sergeant -at -Arms. Mr. Laurier was as
conspicuous factor of the list. Huron's
representiatives also loomed up, with a
tinge of the western sun still upon
their cheeks. I could not observe their
actions very closely, as there were so
many attractions all around, hut in my
calm moments I may refer to their
attitudes. The Governor-General now
delivered his "Speech from the Throne"
in English and French. This speech you
will no doubt have gat in full. Ile re-
ferred to the death of Sir John Thomp-
son, French Treaty, Colonial Relations,
Depression of T'r'ade, Canada's good
standing as witnessed by His Ex-
cellency on recent tours, Newfound-
land Situation, necessity for economy,
Rte. At the close, he handed the
Senate an 1 the ('onlutons•a • •)
e eh ,acopy
of the Speech, and retired accompanied
by the Guards of Honor.
Then we realized that. Parliament
had really and formally opened. We
shall not attempt, Mr. Editor, to give
you anything like as connected account
of the debates carried on in the House,
but if we can through a side light on
the doings of men in a public capacty
we shall be glad to do so. The speech
will likely be discussed to -morrow.

before the first, box was finished an

had derived from the use of three boxes
of Pink Pills and declares that, they
