Mucdonald to arrange atl'airs in the Nortlvweot. The Berlin Congress in its wisdom alloted certain of the outly- ing Provinces ot Turkey to the neighbor- ing Powers-Boss, to Austria, Bataan: bin to Russia, he., but the native races are determined to resist the forced occupation of their country by toreigners. A few years ago the administration of Sir John A. Mncdonald in Council " Ottawa ap- pointed not only n Governor to rule over the North-west, but appointed his omcials and all the paraphernalia of an old and es- tablished government to he transferred from Ottawa to Winnipeg. The attempt of such a high handed proceeding natural. tr resulted in rebellion on the part of our Manitoba fellow citizens, which required the tact and administrative ability of Mr. Mackenzie and his colleagues to allay. Apropos ot the dismemberment of Turkey, there is a rumour "oat to the trffeet that a secret treaty was concluded betnceu Eng- land, France and Turkey, prior to the Anglo-Ottoman Convention, by which Egypt is to he ceded to France, England and Turkey being consenting parties to l this arrangement.

Indeed. if protection to i Jit auyinhcuwwrrepossibh, in England it l re would be adopted in the case of sugar. on l " account of the injury which English rctin- l " ershme sustained by the action of the , French Government in reference to this 1 article. In France the manufacture of e bet t root sugar is very largely carried on, C L, and gives employment to a great deal of l e labour and capital. But the manufacture tl " ofbeet root sugar costs more than cane ll " sugar imported from the West Indies, and "I r the natural consequence would be that the er, . West Indian sugar would undersell the C . beetroot sugar and drive it out of the mar. tl . ket. However, in order to protect the tr 1 home industry the French Government on , placed the duty on imported sugar so high w ' as to completely shut it out ofthe country. ex By this means the cultivation of beets was r. certainly stimulated, but the whole French ki people had to pay more for their sugar "f than if the trade had been allowed to take c" its natural course. Not only were the cul- an tivuters of the beat protected, Ibut the eh sugar rehrurrs, claiming protection also, re. r et ceired abounty or concealed subsidy " go Gladstone calls it, of ten per cent. on all all refined sugar exported out of France. no This enabled the French refittem to under- " sell the English refiners in their own mar.

Yet it is milk a' and honey to the vitiated palate of the ' Chronicle. Our contemporary pats the Senator on the back, speaks of him as a , careful and trustworthy guide, and endors- ' es the garbage to which the Senator treat- f ed the people of South Bruce, and with ' which he attempts to blind the people of D South Grey. The ordinary expenditure of I ' the Government was over one million dol- ' ' lars and a half less last year than in 1873- l 74, and the management of the Public Debt cost about tiftyuive thousand dollars 1 less last year than in 1878-4, although the : work in the meantime had increased. l These are facts, deny them who dare. It l is true that there is an increase of the interest t of the Public Debt, but why? For the t purpose of meeting the extravagance and c recklessness incurred by the Government f of Sir John A, Macdunnld. The Senator's f allusions to the contingency and salary ac- t" count are equally astray.
