If ever there was an unreasonable, inconsisteut, obstructiee, and venom.• eeus course pursued by the Opposition it hes been in the matter of the charges made against Sir. A. P. Caron. First -of all, a resolution was tabled by Mr. Edgar pretereing vague and general •eharges gravely reflecting on the pres- ent Post Master General, in n conection w ith certain subsidies granted to the Quebee and Lake St, John Railway to t he extent of over a million Dollars; a -large portion of which •money, it is al-. legecl, was applied by Sir, A. P. Caron in debauching the con,etituencies through evelieh said Railway passed, Me position taken by Sir John 'Thomp on on behalf of the Government was that the charges preferred were not specific, and to refer them to the Com- mittee oa Priveleges aud Elections 'would involve a session extending into next year -if we may judge from the experience of last year in conducting the investigation into the Civil' Service irregularities. This of couree ralsed a hypocritical howl from the Opposition t hat the Goyerment wanted to hark the inquiry. To this the ltlinister of Justice replied that if any specific char ges were made against ante:Member of the Cabinet, the Government would pledge themhe selves to grata tfullest ;investigation ;and the Post Master Gen eral stated publicly on the floor of the • Haase that he was quite prepared to meet any charges that were specifical- ly made. In the course of the debate several allegations were thrown out by Mr. Edgar, Sir R. Ca-rtwright and Hon. David Mills, which were taken down and. reduced to writieg, and thus form- ulated into distiuct charges embodied in an amendment offered by Hon. Mac- Kenzie Bowell on behalf;pf the Gevern enent; thus throwing the burden of proof on. the instigators of those charg- es. The amendment concluded by re- •ferring the whole case to a Royal Com- mission, consistteg of e competent and unprejudiced judges who tit was con- tended) would be better qualified to in- vestigate the charges than a committee of. theyfouse.with strong bolitical bias on either side-. Did such:a reasonable proposal meet the wishes of the Opposi- tion? To men who were really desir- ous of doing public justice, and not anxious to gain a party idyantage,the proposal was the most reasonableNthat could. hare been matte. But no! Justice and. fair play was not their object as the sequel proved. In the amendment effered by the government, Mr. Bowell embodied not only the vague charges contained in Mr. Edgar's motion, but also theapecific charges in the shape of inuendos thrown out by him and his two colleagues in the course of their :speeches. in which they animadverted severely on the government for oppos- ing the motion-. The ;course pursued. by the goe-ernment in offering an amendment, which really gave to the Opposition an opportunity for substan tiating their charges, fell like i'bonali- shell on the party' who thougl;:all a: Hong pefeseing hypocritically to:be an- ions for an investigation, now fra.n- Ideally yelled defiance at the reasonable proposition of the govermnent to refer the whole matter to a competent trib- rune removed. from the arena of party politice. Want of space forbids us ifroin giving to • our readers the full =text of the amendment, which contains • ten counts in an indictment gathered Item the speeches:of the three Opposite -members. Suffice it to say, that after a pretty lively debate -in which --there was some able:speaking from:the:Min- aaterial benches -the amendmentre- -erring the Caron charges to a Com- . mission of:judges was carried by a -majority of 62, not counting absentees. • It deserves to be stated that all •that • the amendment contemplates is a thor- ough investigation and report by the • 'Commission, to be -finally dealt with by the High Court of Parliament. 41.111i= PREFERENTIAL TRADE.

Who would have thought thet the London Tirnes--whieh hae always been reward ed as the leading organ of British sent iteent, and whose opinions have always been looked, up to with respect by Eur-‘ opean courts -should heye given forth such a.remarisably strong' deliverance as its editorial of April 27th, on the subject of an Imperial customs barg- ain and preferential trade between the Colonies aud the Motherland But so U is! In speaking of the recent discus- sion in the Canadian House of Corn mons, and the important motion of Mr McNeill, M P., which was adopted by the House, the Times remares that 'kir the first time since the great self- governin,g Colonies have begun to de yelop a protectionist policy we have had a distinct and formal offer of an interchange of Commercial advantages between the parent and the daughter nations which might well form the ba- sis of an Imperial Customs Union." The Times deals a Mary blow at the "hol- low and unmeaning subterfuge" re- sorted to by the Canadian Opposition fri Parliament to neutralize the trade policy of our Government; and it bold- ly expresses the opinion that if the Oth. er colonies will unite with Canada in framing a Customs Union, on a prefer ential basis, there would be a strong body of public opinion in England in its favo'r,-even thous.;11 it involved (as the London Times says) "a departure from the rigorous doctrines • of free trade," i tie fact is, England finds out that it is only a jug -handled policy to admit the exports and manufactures of foreign nations free of duty, while every European country -and the United States as well -ate biestling. with a high protective tarift which dis- c eminates ' against British exports, The policy for whi, n \ •• "' .1 and other rising statesmen have been advocating -which in principle is just our own ... t nal Policy,conceived for Canada by the late Sir John Mac - d •ad aud his colleagues -this policy is coming to the front eyen in free trade England; and the day is not efar distant, we believe, when Great Brit- ain and her enildren will be not only politically but out mercially • united, and thus form the greatest Empire the world has ever witnessed. It only re - ma - he other great colonies of the Empire to endorse the action of our Canadian Parliament, and the way will be made clear for deyeloping and maturing a poligy that will *he mutual ly beneficial to Great Britain herself and to the distant members of the great Imperial family. THE COLONIES ANp ENGLAND The New York Herald despatch of Monday last from. London shows that the apathy of the British public upon the subject of the trade relations of Great Britain with Canada is n.ot eof so insmoyable a character as we ave hitherto been led to think. The corres- pondent, supposed to be Mr. Justin Mc- Carthy, says that Mr. NcNeill's resolut• ion, offering trade relations to England in exchange for similar consideration extended to us has strongly affected the popular imagination. Even The Times, hitherto an unfaltering advo- cate of free trade, admits that the pro- posal is worthy serious consideration Col. Howard Vincent in England and Mr. NeNeill and others in Caneda are after all not the faddists and fools that worshippers of the free trade fetish would make them out to be. At a time when foreign nations are striking at English commerce with hostile tariffi hoe brightest hope for the future lies in snaring the markets of her own colonies. As stated by a speaker, Sir 'William Long, at a meetieg in the Sheffield Chamber of Commerce, "one Australian settler, with a wife and three children, is as about as good a eustemer'a.e sixty Aniericans, seventy. .fiye Germane, or StiYenty Frenchmen, One million such families would be worth as much to British labour as the whom Ameriean nation." The colonies with their, vest areas of fertile but un. settled. land must be the seat of rapid growth in wealth and population in the near future; it is in a clean' con- nection with them, and in the cultivat- ion of their trade that England must 'seek a continuation of thet commercial activity and aseendarteye ivhich has made her the object of so much hostile legislation on the part of foreign nat ions. AN awful state of affairs has been discovered at Sarnia -Jim Lister's town. Talk about his ten -times -more Ottawa exposures, something has been unearthed at Sarnia that make every Caeadian commercial unionist and free trader howl. The Unit.al States custom house authorities at Port Huron have discovered that many res dents of that city have been in, the ha- bit of buying goods in Canada --at Sar nia-and smuggling them across the lines! Great Scott! Right in 06 six- ty million market, these peeple come across to Canada, buy goods are' run great risk of smugglieg them" home, Upwards of 200 citizens of Port Huron have been caught at it.
