So also, we observe that while Lerd Dufferin professes that |: the protest of the 96 members was the first intimation he had of the desire for a session in August, he deliberately disre- gards the fact that he had been petitioned by the people not to proregue the House, and ignores the existence and the rights of twe thousand signers of those petitions in' this Riding. The more we examine Lord Dufferin's extraordinary paper, the more the partizan and unfair spirit which at the earliest possible moment, and even a little earlier than decency would have suggested. It should be noted that Lord Dafferin's pamphlet was written before the sitting of the Royal Commission. We should like to hear what he thinks now, that he hes had a chance to hear John A. swear to his own infaniy. Will he not have the benefit of his present opinion.

Canada and the Imperial Government | WANT OF CONFIDENCE MOTION. (By Telegraph from our own Reporter.) Orrawa, Oct. 28 The House met yesterday promptly at 3 oclock. The galleries were densely packed, and even the reporters pew was The appearance of the floor of the House as well as of the | galleries, demoted intense interest of what was git g forward. There was none of the levity generally observed among the members, but every one seemed impress- ed that a crisis in the history of the Can- adian Parliament had arrived, such as had never yet been witnessed. John A. looked particularly ill at onve, and shifted uneasily in his seat after the manner of a criminal, awaiting the verdict of a jury. Mr. Gibbs' seemed ill at ease beside the late Finance' Minister, Hincks, aud evi- dently felt as much at home, to use: a homely expression, as a bull in a china shop. Other members of the Cabinet cast uneasy and distrustful glgnces at their hope and pride, Sir John, and the Northern Pacific Railway promoters, and declared he would submit his whale course of action, to any Com. mittee of the House, as a proof that he had used no unworthy meaus to obtain information or been actuated by improper motives. He contrasted the outrageous assault made ow him by Sir John A. before the latter knew the Allan Jetters were in his (Mr. Huntington's) possession with his sycophantish compli- ments when these letters were shaken in the Premier's face. After reading his original clmrges, he@tated that Sir Francis Hincks had introduced the Americans to Sir Hugh Allan. This Sir Francis denied and a little scene ensned, which left the irascible knight in rather a worse pisition than if he had beewsilént. - Interspersing his remarks with good tempered raillery of his opponents, which raised peals of laughter, he proceeded to show by the evidence addnced hefore the Commsission, how literally accurate were the statements he had prefaced his motion with on the 20d of April. His speech, which lasted Mr. Scott was requested to act as Sec- retary. It was agreed that divine worship witht preaching, should be held in the Baptist Church, commencing at 10.30. The service to be opened with singing and prayer, to be conducted by the Rev. R. B. Montgomery, sermon to be preached by Mr. Seott, or in case.of his unavoidable absence, by Rev. Dr. Thornton. The ser- vice te conclude with singing and prayer, by the Rev. B. L. Hutton. { In recognition of the goodoess of God and in token of gratitude for mercies re- ceived, it wasagreed to ammounce that a collection wpuld be taken up at the close of the service, in behalf of ths Boys' aod Girls' Home of the gity of Toronto. { WM.

One uoticeable feature' of the appearance of the House was the contrast in talent which was de- cidedly in favor of the Opposition. Three petitions against sitting members after all, they covered the soreness of their wounds by affected boasting that the Conservatives had still "gained 357" votes in South Huron. The fact is, how- over, that in reality the Conservative vote was 57 less than at the last election. 1f the PROVISION MERCHANTS. t in a week or two, in the cvmtpe If you want to see the largest, best snd most varied stock of Shirt Studds, Cuff and Collar Buttons, svitable for either Ladies and Gentlemen, go to P.

In other words, if the House supported the Government it was all right ; but. if it condemned the Government, it must forsooth be a * partizon house" and the Province of Nova Scotia would do unut- terable things--rebetlion, or secession, or 'something of that kind. This is a pretty nitimatom, but we are thankfal to know SIONS OF A ROTTEN CAUSE.

Ho alluded to John A's statements in the House and on the hustings vowing. that the Govern- went had spent no money whatever in elections, and showed how utterly untrath- ful those statements were, as proved by Sir John's sworn testimmy. lie then alluded to the gross violation of the con- stitutional rights of Parliament by the Government by praventing it from pro- ceeding with an investigation which it had undertaken. He concluded : " We are at-the present moment i. the heat of a great crisis in the political history of this country. It was quite evident tnat our system was on its trial at the pre sent moment. If this srt of work cau be carried on with impunity by the adminis- tration of the day, then Representative Government had practically failed in this country, (herr, hear,) and if the Parlin mentary system of government fail d, what were we to substitute in its place ! Did these gentlemen look at nothing but the retention of office by themselves 1 Was this to be the chief end of yMimistries in this country ! He appealed to every man in this House to conuder seriously the position in which these matters had placed us, and say by their votes on the motion he proposed to submit, whether they were willing that this system should continue. He moved that the following words be added to the paragraph : --** Aud we have to acquaint His Excellency that by their courte in reference to the investi- dation of the charges preferred by Mr. Huntington in his place in the House, and under the facts disclosed in the evidences laid before us, His Excellency's advisers have merited the severe censure of this House." (Loud cheers,) . The motion was seconded by Mr. COF FIN, member for Shelburne, Nova Scotia, a supporter of. the Government at the last session. Hon. Dr. TUPPER next spoke, he de- clared the charges false and scandalous. attacked the opposition as factious. In order to excuse the appointment of the Commission, he attacked the Committee as "partizan" in its character, and abused amidst laughter and ironical cheers, the tribunal appointed by the House on the motion. of Sir John A. Macdonald. "There were," he said, three partisans on the one sideand two partisans on the other. "Yes," interpolated Mr. Blake, amid roars of laughter, *'and on the Com- mission there were three partieans al' on one side." After some personal attacks on Mr. Huntington, Dr. Tupper went over. the old story of the Pacific Railway negotiations, and diverting to the minor charge against the Ministry, declared there was no proof the Government had ever spent money directly, indulging in the fuguogue argnment, and declaring that money must be used to fight money.

Hon. E. B. Wood moved the adjourn- ment of the debate, and will reply to Macdonald of Picton, to-morrow. The, counting of noses has already be. gin, and the prospect of saccess for the Opposition at this moment is good. It is rumored that the ministry is to be recon- strocted, some of the members being d - termined to withdraw. Tilley is said to he disgusted with his a ssociates, The Ministerial whips de 85 members to 'the Opposition ; but do not reckon Man- 'toba and British Columbia. It is certain thet at least five "members from these Provinces will oppose the Govern- ment. To theif credit be it said, the 14 protesting Conservatives with one or two exceptions, remain firm in their deter mination to vote condemnation of the ar. bitrary conduct of the Government; in ontraging the privileges and dignity of the House. Orrawa, Ocr. 301m. fon. E. B. WOOD took the floor at 3 o'clock, and excepting the hour for re- cess occupied the time of the House till half-past nine o'clock, giving by far the most forcible, logical, and effective speech yet made on the subject. His annmaliza tion of the evidence was exceedingly thorough and effective, and made a power- ful impression on the House. He then showed the absurdity of accusing the Op- position of ubstructing the progress ef the country. They had only opposed the means adopted to provide for thd covstruc- tion of the Pacific Railway. It was they who had iesisted from the first on a bold canal policy, the extension of railways in yll parts of the Dominion, snd the acqui- sition of the North west Territory. He rebuked the shameless political immerality exhibited in the speeches of Dr Tuppe, and Mr. McDonald of Pieton. He ex- posed the absurdity ef alleging collusion between the Opposition and Jay Cooke & Co., which he ctaracterized as an in- famous declaration, and defended, hy re. ference to British precedents the p ble: tion of the Allaw-and McMullen letters. He then called atteution to the amend- ment. of Mr. Mackenzie. and called upon the House }o rise to the greatness of the occasion in dealing with a question of such infinite importance to the country.
