Airrangeineiits for tlie Exe- cution Perfect. -A Quick and Entirely Pain- less Death, Closing Moments of the Metis Leader's Life. Eegina, N. W. T., Noy. 16.â€" Eiel was hanged this morning at 8.23. The coroner's jury is under Dr. Dodd. He died game on the scaiffold. The scaffold has been erected with- in a contracted enclosure immediately in rear of the gaard-hoasa, and the only view of it was through a window immediately under a rafter. The last sacrament was taken by the condemn- ed man within the guard-houc-e proper, and near the opening which led to the scaffold. He respended to the Latin prayers with a full and clear voice while on his bended knees.- When the moraenc came for him to rise to have his arms and hands pinioned he kept looking up, slowly repeating his prayers. He then walked throus^h the opening and down the narrow stairway with hii face turned away from the few ciyilians and soldiers who stood about the opening. When he was about to take his place on the trap th« deputy sheriff asked if he had anything to say. He turned to his oonfessor, Fere Andre, and inquired "Shall I not say a few words " "No," quickly replied the priest in French. "Make this your last sacrifice and you will be rewarded." Kiel turned and remarked in English "I have nothing more to say. There was some delay in adjusting the noose, but Eiel did not remark upon it, and as the white cap alosed over him. he was heard distinctly repealing his prayers. During the night, Fere Andre, while urging upon Eiel not to attempt an address npoc the scaffold, sug- gested that a reprieve might still be on its way but this idea Eiel etrenuonsly repelled. He said he knew his hoar had come and that he was not only prepared, but that he would nst have it any other way, as nothing but the alternative Jtf prison for lite awaited him and to him death was preferable to that. During the night he addressed letters to Kis mother and sister, which touch upon the ' affection he bore them. He added a codicil to his will, specifying that he desired bis body to be laid by the side of his father's in St. Boniface csmetery at W'^iunipeg, which request will be â- carried out. Fere Andre will go there with Eiel'd remains within a few days. His body was interred to-day underneaui the scaffold. There was br«ly a quiver as the •drop fell, and his death was pronounced an easy one. His executioner was a man named Jack Henderson, who was a captive of Eiel's in the rebellion of 1870. OPnnONB OF THB LEAOraa' LONDON JOUBNALS. London, Nov. 17. â€" All the papers this morning devote much space to' the execntiou of Biel. The Chronicle says the Ganadian govemmenk have not only taken care that Eiel shall never agun imperil the welfare of the «tftt«, bainakeft sa^ an example of him that no one elw Bhoald think of foUowmg in his foottteps. „ ^, The Advertiser says "Suoold the hotheaded Anglophebiets of Lower Canada attempt to preach resistance to the laws of the Domuuon, it may become necessary to enqmre whether it will allow imprisonment for debt in an EngUsh colony of the nmeteenth century, and whether a foreign church shall be permitted to monopoUze the soil and hamper the civihzation of a great city." The Times argue that the execution is entirely proper. Tlie Trade Of Rebel Gone. Louis Eiel ascended the scaffold last Monday morning as a knave who has at last encountered his doom. He was no patriot, and those who haye been working in his behalf were spending themselves on an unworthy object. He offered to sell all his dupes for $35,000. His treatment of Thomas Scott was of a cruelty in keeping with his savage nature. There is not one redeeming feature in his whole career. His insanity was feigned. He raised two rebellions, and if let go would have headed a third. â-  Eiel was a dangerous man, who' is well out of the road. We are not inclined to call for any man's blood, and are sorry to think that capital punishment still exists, but society has only one way to protect itself, and that is by making an example on the scaffold. With Eiel's removal Northwest rebellions are at an end. The trade hereafter will be too risky. Asfor the French Canadians, we fail to see wherein they should make coflimoB cause with a common murderer. The truth of the matter is that they do not. All this talk coming from Quebec in favor of Eiel was worked up for party purposes. The great mass of tlie French people and all their leaders are on the side of the law. Heayen forbid that Eiel should go to his death because he has French blood in his veins he is remoyed simply, because he is a man daugeous to the entire society of Canada. The Canadian people by this execution have given the world, and especially that class for whom the New York Herald and the Sun speak, to understand that they are going to settle their difficulties themselves. So, too, may the ill-adyised philan- thropists of London take the same lesson to heart. And if there be a section of the community in Quebec who think that because a French Canadian issue is raised, therefore it must be given into, that section will know that the Canadian people as a whole will not allow such rare pre- judices to rule. Eiel dies, not because he ie a French half breed, not becaus he ie a patriot worthy of martydom, but because he is a man who in the past has heen dangerous almost to destruction of the Canadian community.â€" TTorW. xtmnC hnman life may pMs for Jii- dom and ii frequently Pf^f J,^ the BPnrious element of eelf-knowieoge It teude to moral degenerwy, and a quickening of the morbid facalty .which generates the sentiment of m- '^fidelity. Truth i« the born child of Thovght; the cultivation of latter is, to disseminate Truth in aU its yisible beauty :-to behold and admire the good and shun the unrighteous. Wis- dom :â€" thou beautiful purchase from the aljnighty throne by the great King Solomon In this word Wisdom, we find the keystone of our schools of learning. Many there are in the house- hold department, who do not possess the necessary information to be con- veyed to their offspring. Wndom is the power of thought, one ot the most precious gifts of an Almighty ruler. Education is a paltry power, to be used for good or evil at the poBseeeors will, and is to be avoided wnen placed in the hands of ungodly men. "WHAT SAY YOU TO A PIECE OF EOAST BEEF AND THOUGHT. The human mind is the only brain power in the animal creation capable of solving abstruse subjects, and giv- ing direction to our actions in futurity. The human mind is characteristic of that sublimary infiniteness recorded in Holy Writ hence, how absolutely necessary becomes the training of "Thought" in our PubUc Schools, Semenariss and Colleges. • The intellectual manhoood of our species is not the rulmg question in the moral development of Canada's people honor, not talents alone, makes the true gentleman. Many Godfearine: fathers and moth- ers consider ttiey have accompUshed all their duty to their offspring by giv- ing them the "se-called" good educa- tion., A true and useful education develops the power of Thought: no tramiug it substantial without that requisite. The celebrated Lord Bacon asserted, and with truth, that "Know- ledge is power." We acknowledge the truth of the axiom but, is it not as likely to be exercised in the inter- ests of villany as the pnnciples of Truth and Virtue, unless we inculcate the youthful mind to develop the power of "Thought," in order to em- brace that revealed religion which cultivates the true principles of "Man's humanity to Man." Many parties vainly suppose they have done their duty to their ofiispring. when they have ifiven them a tolerably good edacatiou. Education and Wisdom have diametri- cally opposite ranges. Education is that which enables the burglar toao* cjmplish his fool deeds with a d^ee of precision that an ordinary culprit could not commit. Whatis knowledge? â€" That which gives action to the hu' man brain in order to achieve a high- er power, lutcUigeace in the qriiuary MUSTAED?"
