An interestingdebate took place last week in reference to the preferea tial tariff, which has pioved such a boon to busipess men and British ex- potters. It was proved beyond all possibility of doubt,that the preference had amounted,. in round numbere, to over $2,000,000 in direct saving. But the actual saving�to the people, as 'pointed out by Mr'Heyd; in his admin - able and eloquent speech,is much more than this. The goods imported under tariff come into coin - petition withabout , the preferential f b t't il' d 11 Aggregate Trade for the Tear, Nearly glaz of about $12,000,00(1 yearly, or $12 for every family of five 'persona.

McMullen has done some hard fighting tor the Liberal party; some people think he has dealt with mattere r trifling importance, but be is an "Irish Scotchman," who believes in strict integrity, and hie op- ponents loved him so well that they made two attempts . to .gerryulander him out of Parliament.. , There is a god deal of fight in him, like there was in the late M. O. Cameron, and he has the knack of calling a spade a spade. We believe his opponents woud like to see him out of prrlia- inent,.and if any one deserves well at the hands'ef his party, McMullen does. But if every man Who "sits up close to the Ministers" is going to be appointed to some office, the list will include a „nurnber of Conservatives,for we notice several who. on occasion, cross the floor and"sit up' close to theMinisters."

The Inside of the place was completely gutted, in fact, the building might as well have been let burn down entirely.
