The debate on the address in reply to the
Speech from the Throne was resumed.
Mr. Parnell charged the London press
with entering into a conspiracy against the
good name of Ireland. He defended the
actions of the Land League, which he de-
clared always reprobated outrages. Pur-
nell concluded by moving an amendment to
the address declaring that peace in reload
cannot be promoted by suspending the con-
stitutional rights of the people.
Mr. Forster said that Mr. Parnell must
have known that the result of his speeches
would be the committal of out -rages.
O'Donnell and O'Connor rose to a ques-
tion of order. The Speaker ruled that Mr.
Forster was in order. After a strong speech
from Gibson attacking the Government for
dilatoriness and denouncing the Land
League, the debate adjourned.
A .TOUCIIINCi TRIBUTE.
ViCe-Clastacellor Blake on the -Late Chic
Justice Moss.
TORONTO, Jan. 7. -The Court of Chancery
sat yesterday pursuant to special appoint-
ment for the purpose of hearing the cause
of the Direct U. S. Cable Co. vs. the Do-
minion Telegraph Co, but uporrthe open-
ing of the court the learned Vice -Chancellor
said : I believe it is understood by the bar
that the court only meets to -day in order.
to adjourn. I deplore, in common with the
bench, the bar and the whole 'country, the
ahnost irreparable loss which 'we have sus-
tained by the lamented decease of. the
Chief Justice of Ontario. A long and eni-
broken friendship of over twenty-five years
had endeared him to me, and .causes Me to
feel m.cret keenly his loss.- Hiepre•eminent
ability, his conscientious 'devotion to
his duty as a .judge, as a ilawyer, and
to the country in whatever way he
could serve it, the general courtesy, which
ever characterized his intercOnrse not only
with the profession but all. who ,carne in
contact With him, make his lesSone which
*ill be widely deplored not only by the
bench and the profession, but by -the
coun-
try at large. -There is a circumstance
yliich adds tothe grief that we all.feeLoir
this sad ocougion: Heyos, taken froin us
in a foreign laiad,far-from hisfyiende, and
deprived -of the surroundings of. home, to-
whicli he'..ching '.ar-dently --and which
might have .soothed his aufferingain liis
parting hours. I gladly pay, ei7ertrespect
in my power to his memory, net -only bee
cause of his high position .as the bead of
-the judiciary of -this -proVince; but from._ a
deep feeling of Affectionate regard " which-:
tinm can never efface.. As there are coun-
sel enge.gecl- in this case, who have eon*

o'clock.' When he was passing the Separate
school young Grace stepped out a the
recess of the gateway, where he had iboon
waiting, and rushing forward struck Mr.
Barr a violent'blow in the face with his fist
without a wdrd of warning. It was quite
dark, and Mr. Barr had net the least lidea
who his ruffianly assailant was, but: closed
with him, and in the struggle both felll into
the ditch. _Here Grace gave several blows
and eitherkicked or Stamped on Mr. Barr,
