He did not in- tend to discuss the merits or demerits of the Treaty, but would conne his re- marks to the matter indicated in his resolutions, on which he spoke at some length. He frankly admittedgthat, up to a certain point, the conduct" of the Government in respect to the `Fenian * claims was such as commended itself ` to his judgment. He had no fault" to - nd with the language used by the ` . Canadian" Government in their dis- i patches to the British government, and I was bound to say that it would be" dif- 5 licult to use plalner language than that i the Privy Council had seen tit, and 4 I 1 ' justly to use. He believed that all would acknowledge that the Govern- ment had called attention to these de- - mands in good time. He found that the correspondence had been commenc- ed as early l868, and the papers brought down showed that it had been kept up, , and after perusing it hethonght. the V Government were not to blame for want of plain speaking. `He did not believe that a firm expression of our , claims would "have exasperated the " minds of the American Commissioners; but was convinced that the step that had beentaken would be an incentive to the Fenian` organization to -`renew their murderous work. tip to the pre- sent, he admitted that we had been tolerably well protected against `these incursions, owing however more .to the incompetence and cowardice of, the Fenian,Leaders than to` the compet- ency of-those who-were sent to oppose them. ~H_e,rp rotted thefcoursev the _ Government, . ad _.taka- in obtaining.

The hon. gentleman was right_ in urging the Government with reterence to it, but he (Sir George) did not think the Government had A been idle in prepar- ing` their measures, or dilatory in bring- ing them before the country. In no previous session had so much- progress been made inthe same time with the business of the House. The whole work of the session, it might be said, depended upon the supplies. . VWell, the public account had -been placed on the table on the rst or second day at the session, and the estimates had been in the hands of members a day or two afterwards, as well as the department- al. reports. As for the measures of the Government, all of them had been brought down with the exception. of this bill upon tbedistribiition of seats, and that would be introduced sooner probably than the hon. member ex-e peeted. up at I - --'-- uquuuuuuuuu uus session. ` I .

SAN` JUA N BOUNDARY. Sir Alexander Galt said that if, the Minister of Justice had been in his place he would have asked verbally a question he would now place on the paper as a notice. It was to ask him a point he had not stated in his remarks upon the Treaty, whetherthe Govern- ment had taken any, and if so. wlfat steps to have the interests of Canada represented in the arbitration by the Emperor. of Germany on the San Juan boundary question. (Hear, hear.) REDISTRIBUTION 'OF SEATS a Mr. ' Blake asked when the Govern- ment intended to introduce their meas- ure respecting the redistribution of seats. He had more than once pointed out the necessity of a considerable in- terval between the introduction and the second reading of this bill, because careful comparisons would have to be made with the census returns in order to discuss it intelligently. He hoped, to learn, therefore, that it would be in- troduced without delay. ,Sn- (lam-an Cartier em`.-l H... `l..'ll .......1.: THE rENxm_cu1Ms. I \-uuuu UIIPUTUJ) T ' __" . ,` (* 7.Mr~.

He said that viewing the tact that we were about to build a great inter"-oceanic ' railway in which work we were expecting to re- ceive Imperial aid, it would be short- sighted policy to passa resolution of this kind; Ifit would lead to the downfall of the Gladstone Government, he (Mr. Harrison) would support it with all his might. (llear, hear.) It was not pretended, however, that it would have that, or indeed any effect. The House ltnewthat these claims ' had not been withdrawn except for Government reasons, that it wasnot from cowardice or from. any other un- worthy motive. The Imperial Gov- ernment had failed to press them. In taking the responsibility of withdraw- ing them, the Imperial Government admitted the right of Canada to corn- pensation. While-then we had a right to look to`Englaiid for that coin- ` pensation because she had taken the responsibility of preventing our seeking , payment from the United States, it was our duty, remembering the motherly kindness ofthe people of England, to -_ make the burden he as lightly upon . them as possible. The mode ofset- tlement proposed by the Government Just to met this couditoi. It gave us in Canadaa great benet, and it compensated us for our losses while it cost the Mother Country nothing at all. The mover of. the resolution had ob- jected to this settlement, saying Eng- land might as well paythe money as ' endorse paper for Canada. Well, he (Mr. Harrison) would not be above en- dorsing paper- himself for Canada, (laughter) for he believed suchan oper- ation would ndt be only pleasant but - entirely safe. It was impossible that the liability England was incurring would ever become an actual liability. As for Fenian marauders again troub- ' ling our country, he had no apprehen- sions on that score. Entertaining these views, first, that the resoliition was more mischievous than useful, and, second, that it` censured the Im- perial Government when censuri was out of place, he would move the follow- ing amendment :- That this House does not consider that the interests of the Dominion will be -promoted or the relations now happily exisiing between the Motzher Country ' and Canada strengthened, but an e';_rpression oi`opiri- -.ion on the subjectof the witlidrawal ofthe Fenian"(_zlairns by the Imperial N Government before the Joint `High ff Commission. . _tc _ tin-of Canada. had not done their duty `E .

The hon. gentlemen . seemed to propose want of condence in` the Imperial Government; while at A the same time he did not seem to com- plain very much of the Canadian (lov- ernment, for he admitted that they stqod up (or the right of Canada and had urged their view with vi-or and will on the Imperial .a`ruvernment. A Well this was not successful. The Im- pexial Government did not consider that`, inview of all the circumstances in connection with the Alabama dif- ficulty; it was expedient to urge a claim for cimpensation for the Fenian n raids. ' They decided deliberately, and it mint HA nucnrnml that 01...... ....o...l . ......a. ~ allay uuuiucu ueilueratcly, nnu it must be assumed that they acted. honestly, and with a true sense oftheir resptnsibilitv as acting on behaifof the Empire.

He `considered that they might suit the hustings, or might be properly discussed in the press ; but that that Flotiae was rather :0 pass lv`.WS and affirm `practical pro positions. -Expressing regret and hum- iliation was all very well as rhetoric ; but what was to follow ! Was the English Cabinet to resign. (Laughter and cheers.) The second resolution he thought. was somewhat contrad- ictory. It first expressed regret that England should indemnify Canada for losses sustained at the hands of citizens ofa foreign state, and added as a reas- on that the raids resulted from feelings of hostility to England and not to Can- ada. To him they seemed really a reason why England should pay.

It was now about aiweek since he had the honour of making his nan- cial statement, in the course of which he had intimated, it would be remem- bered, that, under certain circumstan- ces, it would be absolutely necessary for the Government to propose a re-ad- Justmeutiol the taritf. That changes would be imperative in case certain measures then pending before the Congress of the United States passed into law. He believed it was only . about forty-eight hours after the de- livery of his speech that a telegram had been received announcing that the bill to repeal the duties on tea and coffee had been passedby Congress; but it was . not till last night that the Government had received authentic in- formation that the President of the United States had actually signed the bill; so that, beyond -doubt, these duties would be repealed on and after the 1st July next-. Now, persons en- gaged in the trade iii the United States had been very seriously embarrassed for three or four months, because of the uncertainty about the continuance of these duties, and if he couldjudge .by the questions which had been put to him within the past few days, great interest was excited in Canada as to the effect this repeal would have if we continue to impose duties on those ar- ticles. In order to remove any appre- hension, therefore. on this source, the Governrnent have resolved that, on the 1st July next, the duties on `ten aml coffee shall be repealed. (Cheers and sensation). He thought it was evi- dence of the superiority of our institu- tions over those of the _United States that, while there had been protracted uncertainty in regard to the duties in the neighbouring country, there would be no serious delay in ascertaining the_ intention of the Legislature of Canada. (Hear, hear). He had the honour to give notice that,,on Tuesday, he would move that this House resolve itself into Committee of the Whole to consid er a resolution that the duties on tea and coffee` shall be repealed after the 1st of July next. (Cheers) TRADES UNIONS. S1l"J0hl] Macdonald moved for leave to introduce a bill respecting Trades Unions. He explained that the mea- sure,` or rather _measures, for there were two of them, which he would ask leave to introduce, although he had only given notice or one, was based upon the Imperial statute upon the 4 same subject. His attention`, and the w attention of every one interested in the of prosperity of Canada, had been called lb lately to the fact, that the law relating ` to Trades Unions, with the civil and 91 the criminal side, was not the same as , in Ens1an.d.and that the English me- ' F chanic, who came to this country as `" well as the Canadian mechanic, was ' subject to penalties imposed by statutes E: that had been repealed in England, as 10,} opposed to the spirit`of the liberty of no the individual. `He roposed a lav, r the same in principle if ' the Ir. ar- an- ent red Mother Country would have the same 2! freedom of action, and the same right "3 to combine for the accomplishment of : lawful objects, as they had in England. BE (Hear, hear). The '8lll.'je(: was too - important to `be taken ab imtia without 4 great care and study, and it was only "J since Parliament met attention had ` been called to it.

The damage done to lhe Bmque du Peuple is put down at `from $1,500to $2,000 which is fully covered by `insurance. The Sun pa- per, Messrs. Aurback &. C0,, Messrs. Perrault, Messrs. Wilson s Dominion tpye foundry, and Morrison's suered considerable damage from water, but are all more or ` less insured. The to- talinsurance on the buildings is $50,- "000. uuu: yuoacu ` The object of this bill was to remove certain difficulties created by the for- mer act, regulating the Government reserve ofgold. In explanation the min- ister of Finance stated that this measure was caused by the great inconvenience which was found in the working of the present system. There was g:eat practical inconvenience in the require- ment that the Government should, for all notes beyond nine . millions, hold dollar for dollar in gold ; the conse- quence being that they were constant- ly obliged to violate the law, because it was impossible toascertain the exact amount of circulation weekly at any time. It was to be observed that this bill did not give the Government any power toextend the circulation. He must say that the alarm which was attempted to be created throughout the country in regard to this bill was en- tirely without foundation. (Hear, hear.) M suuil-ILI5 IJIU ISSUE 01 Uonllnlon Notes. Mr. Holtun desired to place a mo- tion on the Journals containing a pro- test against the principles underlying this bill. He moved in ammend- ment, thgt the bill be not now- read a third time,- but that it be resolv- ed,-- That it 19 expedient to _author has an unlimited issue of Dominion notes on the basis of so insufficient a specie reserve as twenty per cent., and that, to empower the Minister of the day to advance Dominion notes to the chartered banks to an unlimited amount on the security of their own certificates of deposit, might lead to disastrous con- sequences. n.. .. .l:..:..:....
