Time, which sets all things straight is slowly but, r, t,rely proving Strjohn Mac- donald to have beeu the greatest states. man. who ever at in a Canadian Perna- ment. Those whose memory carries the back to the days before Confederation when Upper and Lower Canada had.bt one Legislature between them recollee that owing to the race and reliedou troubles of that day, complioete(1 by th factionism of the George Brown Grit the Parliamentery institutions 0the country broke down in 1864, an that there appeared nothing before tit two piovincee but annexation, whic from every point a view, but pubic ularly on account cif the AMerioan Wit debt, was highly undesirable. Ab the crisis In ouraffeire, Sir Jolly Macdouald genius was displayed. Seeing the nee essity for prompt action, be succeede in getting repreeentatives from all th British North American Provinces to gether, Nova Scotia and New Bruns wick also having broken down, an proposed that they should form a egis lative union, with but one Parliamen for all, and continue their exidence one coloey instead of five, as they the were. He wanted all legislative pow or centered at Ottawa and urged the. such an arrangement on account of it • evident cheapness and fairness woul be better than any other proposed The Reform party claimed that this wa but a Tory dodge. and by working o the local prejudice s of the othe provinces, such opposition was rais ed that Sir John was compelle to abandon the project. and to avoid en nexation which even England appeare tofavor, assisted loyally arid unselfish ly ia working oub the present scheme o Confederation, which, besides having central government gives to each prov ince elaborate and costly legislative machinery. Up to this point, the Re ferns party favored the tT, S. plan, bu her, etey proposed a deviation from it to the disadvantage of Canada. The -Were) geeernreenthi tie:. United States collects, and disburses all reven- uee obteined from customs and inland revenue taxation, while each state has to pride its own revenues in such way ---e-eastib neap deem most wise and exnedient consistent with the U. S. constitution. This plan did not suit Lower Canada, or more correctly speaking, the Roman Catholio hierarchy of that province. They realized that if the people of their province bad to find all the means for the Government of the province, they would be unable to ceeicibute as liber- ally as they bad always done, to the funda of the church, or in other words, that its treasury would lose to the ex- tent the provincialgovernment extraoted from the people, for in Quebec the saviegs of the farmer all find their way by one way and another to the church coffers. The Reform party, being anxious to curry favor with the French hierarchy, agreed to a proposal that the central government should set aside from its revenuea, a sum sufficient to meetthe ordinary expenditures of the different provincial governments. Thus came the arrangement by which the Dominion government pays each prov- lid pupuld.th).u. ele the French Canadiari peasantry buy little or nothing that pays either cus- toms duty or inland revenue taxation, (their whiskey even being smuggled from St. Pierre de Miquelon,) they con- tribute practically nothing to the fund they draw fxorri : as Ontario people con- tribute three-fifths ot the fund, they pay in not only their own share, but a good portion of their neighbors' shares. Of every dollar that goes to the federal treasury from curitoms and ex- cise eJllections they pay 60c. and get back 40. , The other provinces between them pay40 and get back 60cts. What furtherinjustice was imposed upon us by the failure to adopt Sir. John Mac- donald's scheme of a legislative union is made te, parent by the recent visit of the Premier of Quebec to Ottawa for the purpose of asking the Dominion govern. merit to come to the financial ralief of his province. Tee grantineof assistance to the prov- inces was a bad thine. It keeps ac- counts open bete een the federal and provincial goverreeents and encourages Dxbravariance on the part of the provin- cial legislatures. They spent money in the most extra vagaut way, •and some times quite illegally, as for instance, in the esuits' estates case, ie the belief that their representatives in the Domin- ion Parliament would be iible to compel whatever'eovernment might be in power to temente such debt e as they rmeht contract, for of course the government which refuses to do the bidding of 65 teoresentatives from Quebec roust ex. peat defeat. A lrearly gee° confeder- ation 109 millions of pr ion -mita debts have been assumed by Ifominion Goy- ernments, both Conservative and R,eferin • tend three fif th s''.of the interest charges • thereon are thereby laid upon the people of this Province. Now the Premier of Quebec, which province has s debt o; 81 million dollare, on which it marmot pay the interest without curtailing the Minard's Liniment hi the hest. s' ,s church's revenues, is fishiag the Delete - son to asst them again, Not one of the other provincial governments is paying its way, though they are zieazily all controlled by Liberals, and their debt added to thab of Quebec, -will make a total of $40,000,000. To assume thet, would make the interest bearing debt of Canada $280,000,000, or about $60 a head. Clearly :Sir John Mace deneld's plan of leg,islative union should have been adopted. The sub- sidy system should be stopped At once. Tf contierea it may eause disaster. lel OTES AND COMMENTS. MC.

The strangers' gallery Was packed to suf. location. .& peculiar feature of the crowd was the conspicuousness of the clerical element. Earl Spencer, First Lord of the Ad- miralty, moved the second reading of the Home Rule bill. He claimed for the Government all honesty of intention in its work for the bill and credited the opposi- tion with being equally conscientious. He reviewed at some length the history of Ireland. since the union. All the co -called remedial measures of the successive Gov. =meats, he said, had come too late to help the country, even bad they not con- tained radical defects, which wonld leve rendered, them napless early or late. His own personal experience satisfied him that Home Rule was the only possible solution of the Irish question.

BEDFAST, Sept. 6.—At the Trades Union Congress in Ulster hall yesterday morning, Samuel Monroe, the new president, spoke at length concerning the labor question in the United Kingdom.
