Tuz speedy trial &nd conviction of O‘Farâ€" rerL, who fired the shot at Prince ArraeDp, has naturally increased the general desire in this country for the appointment of a Special Commission for the trial of Wurtax and his fellow prisoners, as there is little relish for the long delay interrening between the preâ€" sent time and the Fall Assizes. Whatever course may be adopted by the authorities, it will, we have every confidence, be that which commends itself as being most consistent with the ends of justice; and;, therefore, we have no disposition to set up our own, or the pubâ€" lic‘s judgment, in the matter, in preference to their‘s, for the public must necessarily be illâ€" ‘ informed rezarding the position. ltiuobo]‘ hoped, however, that if the issue of a Special Commission within a reasonably short space of time can be consistently done in the public interest, that zo mere conside:ation of respect for customary formalities will. prevent it. There is a pressing anzxiety on the public minJ, a long continuance of which would Le | wear.some to the last degree; and there is m desise, by no means unnatural, that the Gverninent should take the earliest possible opportunity of showilng that they appreciate the new phase of Femanism as a . thing enâ€" ‘tively distioct fromt, and not for an instant t> be confounded with, that which it exhibited wo years ag>» whicl, in so faras Canada was concerned, was surely bad enough, and perhaps too bad, to have been treated with somuca clemency. But &n organised conâ€" spiracy to murder is so far different from an orgacised army to make war, that ny at. tempt at a parallel assumes the l‘aLot. ghastly and rerolting contrast; and henc: 1 aluly â€"in _ the direction of conciliat ing the interests of the Maritime Provinces, amd although it is not to be exâ€" pecied that they will at once convert the opponents of Union into friends, yet if they shall show by experience that the trade and material prosperity of those Provinces are being fosterel under their operation, they will not fail in time to have their due effect in softening the political prejudices wihich now exist, and paving the way for thut union of sentiment which all admit to be a necesâ€" sary conlitiion to the future prospericy of the Dominion. Space doés not permit of our givring an extended report of the interestâ€" ters‘of Customs and Iuland Revenue, affecting the tarid and excise, the particulars of which «wi‘l be found elsewhere, we can onlr say that we believe they have been framed with a due regarl to the double interest of the revenue anl the prblic; which the Government is always bound to keep before them, in deterâ€" mining the ways and ‘means for meeting lho‘ mecessury charges on the public exche quer.

Has this writer no scruples in insulting the common sense of his readers ? Although "Confederate‘"‘ has signified his intention of taking no further notice of me and my writings, I give him fair warning that I will expsse his shallow wricks just past.

What a compliment he pays to their intelligence ! ! ! * uet us now examine his last falsehood. He calls on his readers not to forget the * new proposition, ‘‘ and asserts that it will cost about eleven and one quarter millions in all. Let us see. The proposition is, to use his own words, as tollows :â€"â€" To build from Riverâ€" du Loup to Fredericton, connecting with western ektension,i@icluding a bridge orer the St. John River, for the sum of $7,860,000, the road to be owned by Government ; ana, further, if it be desired, the same Comp*;y F“’P'”" to build from &ESnnection with the ine opposite Fred®~icion to Apohaqui, ria head OfSFana Lake, by the route laid down by Fleming‘s report, for $2,430,000."

I have no desire to Jook too closely into their antecedents; if I am forced to do s4, ti‘x'z me:{ thank their do:zhty; chnmlrion, wh zeal cutruns his jadgment. His essayron the natural history of the "wild cat" fully entitles him to be elected honorary: member of the * Natural History Society of Ottawa," and I trust his contribution to the knowledge we possess of the fauna of the Dominion, will not go unrewarded. f He promises not to forget "that data," which shall have my altention as sooun as it comes to hands, and as " Confederate " has been very generous in his " advics," let me return the compliment, and advise him, as En has succeeded so badly in "cooking " As to the clause in their proposition to build the Frontier line, «* Contederate‘ says it means @"(he timber on the line, where it passes through crown lands, for construcâ€" tion." I dou‘t pretend to know wpat the gentlemen xzaxt, nor did I presume to read their thoughts, w hat I lad to Llwith, is what their zp)dfioo sai; here are their words, :=â€"""the company to be entitled to ALL TIMBER on Crown lands.‘ Couplei with their former notorious echeme, I think the public will see that the clause fully bears out the meaning I attached to it. I "asperâ€" sed" no one, I " branded" no man, I menâ€" tioned no namesâ€"indeed, until " Confedeâ€" rate‘s‘‘ explanation of their former scheme To ET POSSESSION OF ALL THE TIMBER Li%OS or New Bavxswick, I have only to say that the Legislature of that Province had such strong doubts of their self denying patriotism, that it did not see fit to consede their wishes, and this the public will consider the best possible reply to his long winded "explanaâ€" tion ‘‘ of a scheme which bore its character on its face. They are all interested in Jumâ€" bering operations. . His desperate attempt to sing the praises of his St. Stepheu triends, reminds , me forcibly of the blundering efforts of Sir William Dnr'r in .defence of the King, and the soomer these gentlemen silence him, by some means, the better for themselves. Does this jackanapes not see that the _ more, . he . parades . his . patrons before the public, the more uttention will be attracted to their past and present schemes. I have resided some time in New Brunswick, but [ never was aware before that these St. Stephern gentlemen were «" proverâ€" bial" for their wealth. I know well they are notorious for gigantic schemes, none of which have yet !ll&;’.flded. Ic‘: Lro;,ul_y to "Comede "turned about the middle of November last.‘ Is this writeflost to all shame ? _ With regard to the telegrams, he makes the maiter still worse; instead of merely implying falsenood, he now states it deliberâ€" ately and boldly, and tells his readers that the first sod of the Woodstock Branch wis Regarding the St. Andrew‘s Road, I gave his own words, and left our readers to judge of his © veracity." "Litera scripta manent," and it is useless for him to try to evade the plain and simple meaning ot words. > Sir,â€"After repeatedly telimg in= readers, and the public, that there was " ns se of bandying words " (hi~ choice vapression), © Confederate," in vyour i&ue of yesterday, @bandfed" jnst auother cclumn of them, He does not, however, nitempt to rescue his * véracity " from tue hopeless strait in which my Iust letter placed it, Lut he eÂ¥idently @felt in the hamor,‘‘ and has shown us hi« proficiency in the use of "expletivee." Tuc "little game," as he called it, which, he confessed, woild not be "instractive," has quite falsitied his boust, and is not in the least calculated to be even ~amusing" to his readers; at least, I rate their intelligence higher than to suppose, that in the discussion ot a grave questi~u, they can be misled by a mere tirade of personal abuse. As this is all foreign to the " grave question," and as I am quite content to leave my character as 1| writer and controvermalist, in the hafds of a discerning public, I:shall apend Lut little time in noticing his outpourings of spleen,. merely begging our readers to ubserve tlmt‘ my former prediction is fully verified, and that the last nt of a vanquished oppoâ€" mlâ€"cbunm the:â€"etaple of his whole golumn.

A school for navigation existed in Engiand, and he could see no reason why they should not have one in Canada. <This subject was brought under the consideration of the Canadian Le"l::t‘nn in 1854, and a Naval School was estab. im Quebec, which was kept one year, and then abandoned, for what reason he could not say, although it was mentioned in the public prints that the education taught there was too theoâ€" retical, and uot practical enough, as those uusd in that particular branch of study did not have that preliminary education which was necessary. He believed that if that school had been kept up from year to year and enâ€" couraged by the Government, it would bave had a beneficial effect. We have had military schools for our young men, many of whom had served in the army of the United States, when the war was raging in that country, but if they had given the same encouragement to the navy by establisBing. lcboor for the instruction of seamen to serve im sbips, ul would have been of mush more advantage to Government would insist upon reciprocity in ships, asâ€" that would be the bost means of encouraging‘ shipbuilding in Canada, and giving employment to our people, as the United States would be our best market for ship« of a small tonnage, for they can be built here for oneâ€"tourth less than they can be built in the United Statee. Then again we labored under a disadvantage in Canada, in baving no schools where the art of navigation was taught, to enable our young men to command or nay. igate ships, . At one time there were no less than fifty or sixty vessels annually built at Quebec at an average of from eight hundred to fifteen huncdred tons, and it was difficult to find seamen to man, or qualified captains to command them. Even when seamen were Oobtained, the rate of wages was so high in Great Britain and the United States, that it induced them to desert, and great loss Hon.

New York Money Market. THE SENATE. P. J. Levoss, Becretary _ : Hon, Mr. MeCULLY said the course pursued 10 Quebec of building ships for sale, has been pursued in Nova Scotia, until within the last thirty years, and it was found to be very unâ€" profitable. ‘Then the system began to changse and itâ€"was found much more profitable to build ships to sail, the captain generally being part ownerof the vessel. ‘This matter of ship. building is not confined to‘the mechanic, but. the ships are owned by lawyots, farmers and tradesmen who invest theif capital in.them. He had been a chipowner hlml‘e‘l'l ?r some years, and bad no reason to complain in regard to the profits, indeed all their shipsâ€"on thts side of the Atlantic had been tprofitably en gaged and were yielding a good return for the capital invested in thom. ‘The vessels aversâ€" ging from 300 to 600 toms go home with ofl and grain, and get freights from theold counâ€" try direct. A good many go into the coal business,and go to the West Indies. If the ship. builders of Quebecs would turn their attontion to the bgilding of smaller wessels, as they did in Tarmouth, they would fnd i+ 8 more pre Hon. Mt. PRICE was in faver of a bounty for the first ten composite ships built in the Dominion, of say $4 perton, as an encourage. ment to start, afterwards the trade would be entered into as a speculation, and a profitable one be was convinced. He alsodesired to see the pilots trained and educated as captains, when a sufficient number of experienced, skilfal captains would be easily found, which now was a great trouble and inconvenience, Labor was high in the busy months of shipping in spring andâ€"down to autumn, but during the dull seasons of the year was very easily procured at low rates. Hon. Mr. DICKEY said he fully agreed with the suggestion that any new Reciprocity treaty with the United States should embrace Reciâ€" procity in shipbuilding, and was glad to find that was the intention, and he was satisfied it would be the interest of the Americans themâ€" selves to get their ships built in this country. The common schools of Nova Scotia trained young men to go into the (orel{ fell the timber, hew it, build the ships, and then sail them around the worl2. Euch was the race of men that enriched this Dominion. , | be:. Ho has put before the House some of 1 | the obstructions to. trade under which Quebec o | labork, but the«e are applicable not only to n | the port of Quebec, but to all the Atlantic s ; ports of the Dominion. He has put forth some , ideas in which ho (Mr. Mitchell) entirely conâ€" | curred. He agreed with him when be said | that it was most desirable that the shipbuildâ€" ing of the country should be encoursged, and ; | when he said shipbuilding had fallen off, he ) I had stated the fact, but when he attempts to show that the construction of composite vesâ€" sels should be encouraged by the giving of bounties, he (Mr. Mitchell) could not agree with him. . Me says, wooden ships beave failed ; in England, therefore we should give bounties for the construction ot ships that ind more favor with purchasers. . It was truc iron ships " | have driven our ships out of the market, an# it is because ships of the same tonnage made ofjron, measuring the same, will carry adarger: cargo than thoss built of wood, another reason was, there were less accidents bappened to them and they lasted longer. This was an important consideration, as from the high rate g§ of charges in the maritime ports of the world, for repairing and renovating ships, they cost * | more in the long run than the iron ships ‘ | which may cost double as much at first. , | This duzability of the iron ships made them g more favored in England than wooden ships ‘ , | of our part of the country. His hon. friend , | (Mr. Tessier) thought the granting of bounties , | out of the Treasury of the Dominion would introduce the construction of that class of vessels in our country ;. if he (Mr. Mitchel}) | thought any moderate sum would have that | effect, he would be willing that it should be | gronted, but supposing there was a grant ; | made for the bmilding of two or three ships | at Quebec; the people of Montreal would , | want a grant for building two or three there ; | if this is to be given why not give the same | to every shipbuilder in the lgmillon who | commences the construction of these ships ? The sum of money necessary tor this pur R : would be very large, and he (Mr. mhell) held that it was wrong to grant | money for any euch purpose. Public opinion , | not only in England but throughout Europe 1s | in favor of free competition und the removal _| of all oubstructions to the principles of free | trade,and the obliteration of all protection. He | thought the establishment of the frinciplo of granting bounties for any special service would require an enormous amount of money without giving any beneficial resulte. The | establishment of any system of this kind would work detrimental to the interests of the | country, as it would make a large addition to our taxation. If the prosecution of this branch of business can be made profitable, men of capital in the Maritime ports will inâ€" | troduce thesystem and continue to construct ships of a composite character without boun ties, but if it is not a mfluble business, no reasonalle amount of bounties w:il remuneâ€" rate the builders for their construction. He | regretted that this stagnation of trade existed, but he thought it would only aggravate the enlhb_v llk:ng ffl;lm the industrial resources of the people for the purpose &f Reletering u a trade wl‘.’ich c-nnotpol itself be -u-ufn..f. He regretted to buvetodi-tm with his hon. <] friend on this point, but he would say the Government were ready to develope that trade in every legitimate way, and he held that they bad done it The Government of the late Province of Canada did it by allowing a drawback on articles entering largely into the production of ships, while the recent tariff showed that the Governâ€" ment were trying to perpetuate that system by admitting those articles duty â€" free. Then his hon. friend had opened up a very important subject when he spoke of estabâ€" lishing epecial schools for navigation, and he thinks it desirable that the General Governâ€" ment of the country should vote & certain sum of money for the purpose of establishi Navai Schools with a view of inurnoti:‘ young men in the art o1 navigation. Hg (Mr. Mitchel!) agreed with his hon. friend that if any reasonable sum of money could looomlish this object it would be well to expend it. If it was the policy of the Govâ€" | ernment to establish milit@ry echools with a view to the defence of the country, there | could be no reason why they should not give | some instruction to the naval element of the | country ; but the evile which his hon. friend | gomplai would not be remedied by the establishment of naval schools, because| though these schools might supply the numâ€" | ; ber of seamen which were required, the | ; real difficulty was the geographical position | of the country in relation to the United | l States. That country was a fie‘d for the | i absorption of a much larger number of peoâ€" | 1 ple than go there, and the character of their | employments being so productive andâ€" reâ€"}‘ munerative they attract the people from our | shores. One reason for the scarcity of seamen | ‘ at Quebec is because they build a large ; number of vessels there every seamson which ae chiefly for sale, and it required a | in“h m-n); me? every' year to man them. ; nother point of great im nce to which |m.m trieud bad aiiglod mhuubngo & ’m late Reciprocitr â€"â€"ba atated that if | | «sreafter a treaty sho/ e, contain as s of re » ._He ec 1: said that this provision should be made in any € new Iee:r:eny treaty: he had thought at 1 the time the old treaty was repealed, it would 1 have the effct of destroying the prosperity of h the coun:z, but uow upon dooking back, he fo found its were not so detrimental to the | _ people of Canada as to the United States.

His hon. friend had spokeun upon three subjects which, though very distinct, were very important as connected with the navigation of the country. The first is in reâ€" gard to giving bounties for the construction of & certain class of ships, known as comâ€" posite ships, for which the "boards of traie" in soms of the leading cities of the Dominion hbave asked the Government to make provisâ€" fon for their construction at the port of Queâ€" the country as a . means of defence, .Vessels could be used as schools of navigation, and be employed in the service at the same time.

The tutal expenditure, $14,321,â€" 360, leaving a surplus of receipts over expenâ€" diture of $374,140. (Cheers.) He thought there was no reason to daubt but that these anticipations would be realized. He had no reason to doubt but that unless sometlh:ing very ©xt.mordinary and unforseen should arise these anticipations would be fuifilled. He believed that there had been an overestimate, and proâ€" rdy #o, as by the provisions of the Audit A«t t was impossible that the amounts should be exactly estimated for the various services reâ€" quired to be provided for beforchand, and therefore there ought to be an estimate over, rather than under, the requirements of the public service of the year,.. . With respect to the floating debt the amount was in Decemâ€" ber last $6,907,000. There was farther due to the Court of Chancery $100,000, aud for other claims an amount raising the total to $1,158,676. From that is to be deductâ€" ed the bank balances in favor of the Government, leaving the nett balance of the debt $3,854,807 in mberlast. On the 15th April that Mmm as follows :â€" Due to English agents $310,502 ; Dae to Bank of Montreal $2,500,000 ; Due to several Proâ€" :iunu: sm‘,qr:m $3,602,270. From Hon. Mr. ROSE in m wving that the Speaker should leave the chair, thought it expedient to take a bmie! review of the tinanâ€" cial eondition of the country jor the year now drawing to u close, and to refer to the prebable revenue and expenditure ot the year ending June 30th, 1869. It would be in the recollection of the House that in Noâ€" vrember last he stated that the upo#&:n of this year would be ue.ns,xq, rhich the sum ot $14,300,000 would be for ordinary grign. The estiniates show an increase at estimate, the total making an aatiâ€" cipated expenditure of $17,335,000, being an increase of over $1,100,000. It was necessary to explain that this sum really belonged to the expenditure ot the Jate Province of Canada, the weveral items of which amounted to $1,119,427, which being deducted from (the estimates,leave the balunce as stated in Decemâ€" ber last, about $16,000,000yas the expenditure properiy belonging to the year.
