SIR, JOHN'S DEATH. It e, ill he some time before the people of Canada, wilt ft:11y realize how much they hove lest le; the death of gir .Thht, a Map Atonable=the patriatte statesman who de- vote.' his whoie life to his country. If other ;nen erne to govern as well, or per- haps Letter, than the late premier, it will be because he had already laid the founda- tion of the future rosperity of the Dominion. If anything were wanting to allow the hold which $ir John had on the affections of the people, the extraordinary sympathy manifested during hie last illness affords touching proof that his integrity, his aineerity, and Ms tozselfiehrisss were appreciated no less than his administrative ability by all classes a the people and by men of every shade of politics. The Presbyterian Record. had the above liberal and nicely.toned article in in a recent issue. The Seatorth Ex- positor last week severely criticises it as follows : "It may be the opinion of the "writer in the Record that it was Sir "John's "patriotism" and his desire for the welfare of hie country that induced him to devote his whole life to politics, but he will find a good many in his " own church, as well as out of it, who " hold a widely different view, and who "think they are able to give many very "substantial reasons for the faith that "is in them," and so on. Has the Expositor lived up to the latter end ot the 19th century and never learned the necessary lesson that a man may absolutely differ from you in opinion and yet he honest ? Either Sir John Macdonald was a clever, patriotic, hon- est man, or Canadians were fools in trusting him so long. Our cotem. in effect says that the late Premier was neither one nor the ether ; therefore in effect it calla Canadians fools for keep- ing hire in power, The gxpoaitor may not have supported him; tnay not have Ielleved him; may not have trusted him; but the majority of Canadians did. And surely our cutem . does not claim all the brains or honesty in this country! Is our cotemal ways right and its oppon- ents always wrong? Cannot the Ex- positor rise to the occasion and say honestly, as is sid by scores of honest Reformers; "That Sir John was a clever, patriotic, absolutely honest, and sincere man, according to his lights"? Did the Expositor read Laurier's tribute to the dead statesman? There was lib- erality of sentiment 1 Why not emulate it? Why forever wallow in the old ruts •of abuse of political opponents? Cannot our cotem. see that the days of such gross illiberality are past and gone? With its eternal boasting of its liberality and fair play, we would expect better of our cotem. Bur it is the old _story of lip toleration and heart bigotry. The comieg age may or may not ap- prove of Sir John's views, but the com- ing ages Meet, testify that according to his lights and views, he was indeed a great, patriotic, honest,. sincere and capable man and the foremost statesman of his generation. And the. ill-timecl and ungenerous criticism of our cotem . will not affect the verdict.

In reply to Mr. McMullen Sir John Thompson said he was not prepared to state (he remuneration which 'Maid be paid to Mr. Osier and Mn Henry, counsel for the Department of Public Works in the Tarte enquiry. In answer to Mr. Mills respecting the same matter, Sir John Thompson said: These gentlemen are employed under these circumstances. There is a very large sum of public money, in rela- tion to which indefinite charges are made against the Department a Public Works, as well as a certain definite charge against a particular officer. The Government thought proper that counsel should be employed, not only to watch the investigation, but to aid ID the investigation from day to day, for the purpose of eliciting all the facts surrounding the ntatter, 'with a "view, not to the defence of any particular officers, but with a view to pursue the enquiry in every possible way; and the instructions to these lawyers were, if anypersonshould be inculpated, that the matter should be pursued to the fullest extent and that they should then assume the posi- tion of counsel for the prosecution.

Ee was afraid that Mr. Trclw bad been imposed upon by elerks who wanted employment during the summer. Mr. Trow allowed his =Alen to stand to see if he could not tone at down. On the order of the day being called A lively dispute arose between Mr. Chart - tan and the Minister of Customs. In a previ- ous debate Mr. Charlton had said that Mr, Bowen got into the Gover•innent through the active efforts of the Orange order exerted through deputations waiting on the late Premier. Mr. Bowell having then character- ized the statement as a falsehood, Mr. Charl, ton thought proper to rise to -night to a ques- tion of privilege, and. supported his asser- tion by the recorded statement of James Beaty and one Reynolds, an expelled meraber of the Orange order. Mr. Bow - ell explained who Mr. Charlton's author- ity was, and pronounced Mr. Charlton's stateraeut as quoted, "False as hell," and worthy of a member who, while promoting Christian. legislation, would make a false affidavit for the purpose of datna,ging the character of a brother member, referring to Mr. Charlton's afficla,vit last session regard- ing Dr. Hickey's timber limit transaction. Mr. Charlton indignantly asked Mr. Dowell to quote the false affidavit alleged to ha,ve been, made by him. Mr. Dowell referred him to last year% Hansard and to Mr. Charlton's •affida,vit about Mr. Hickey, the late member for Dundas, to whom Mr. Charlton had apologized and expressed regret for having raadeassertions proved to, he un - The list of voterss4 qualideatione may be aummarized as fOROWS i -Every male' being a Britiahs subject and 21 years of age, who is owner or occupant of real property of actual value of $300 i citiea, $200 in towns, sno in other places; who is a tenant paying at lelst $2 rent per month, or $20 per year; whose income is $300 a year ; the sons of farmers and property owners are qualified by their parents' propertryhen sufficient. In fact, the fmnelnee is broad enough to include almost every Mall in the community. It will be found that nearly every citizen comes under one or other of these classes, and Con - sets ablyra alwald remember that the issue of the political contest of the day is practically now being decided in the complexion of the voters' list. It is an open secret that some Conservative losses in Ontario during the late election were due to detective voters* lists. Let this mistake be avoided this time. s The English sparrows in this district are increasing greatly. The country places, as well as the cities, towns and villagp," are swarming with them. No. turaily these birds aregregarious, and under all circumstances have the shelter of:cities and towns, and it is evident that whoever introduced them to the country for beneficial purposes, mistook the species, and brought the English house sparrow instead of the hedge sparrow. However, these hordes are doing incalculable damage to the crops at the present time; especially to the wheat fields that are now getting ripe. In nearly every field protective measures are taken, and farmers are turning out to destroy them with guile. In some places the margins of the fields are corn- pletely destroyed and nothing remains but the straw. Farmers report losing $3 per day on wheat crop by the ravages of these birds. There is no other bird of its size that can do the same amount of work on a gram field, in a given time, as this. A bevy of a hundred or two hundred alight instantaneously on a field and flutter and buoy themselves up with- out any apparent support but theslender straw, and pick out the ripest and best filled kernels without bringing or bend- ing the stra /7 to the ground at all.
