ninieeduneia House of Assembly. APRIL 22, AFTERNOON SEHXSION.
House in committee resumed consider- ation of the bill respecting elections.
Hon. Mr. McLeod said that it was pro- posed to take from mortgagees the right to vote. It was, he said, as just to give judg- ment creditors the right to vote as mort- gagees. A mortgage is only a security for the payment of aloan. It was, therefore, not right, in his opinion, that a man worth $4,000 or $5,000 in cash should be able, by a judicious distribution of his investments, to vote in every district in thé Province.
Mr. J. 2. MacLean said that he was al- together opposed co special votes on any- thing A man who votes on property should go to the place where his property is, and vote there. Hut if special votes are to be retained, he did not think it right to discriminate between a mortgagee and an owner.
Mr. Bell explained that the interest of the mortgagee is equal to that of the owner. ‘Che mortgagee is really in posses-

j Orrawa, April 22, Mr. Biaks having, at Mr.
enceto a judicial tribune of vexed ques- tions relating to disallowance, the House this afternoon went into committee of ways and means, Further modifications of the new tariff were announced by the Finance Minister, and discussed and agreed to. The changes were at follows: All manufactur- ers, and not those merely of woclen and cotton goods, are allowed the privilege of the free importation of blood, aibumen, tannic acid, antimony, salts, tartar, emetic and grey tartar.
The item providing a duty of 30 per cent. on building stone is madeto read dressec building stone. Ginger wine is to pay 75 cents, in place of $2 per gailon. Repairs made to ships are no longer to be dutiable. The skelp iron duty, now $13 per ton, or about SO per cent. is to read thus: Skelp iron shered or rolled in grooves not wider than eight inches nor finer than 20 gauge until such time as it is manufactured in Canada, 30 per cent. Buttons of hoof, rubber, vulcanite or composition are to be 5 cents per gross and 20 per cent. ad valorem in place of 10 cents per gross and 25 per cent.
On a discussion arising on the pork duties Mr. Foster reiterated his statement that
pork, at 1} cents per pound, but he said that, in view of the difference of opinion on this subject, the Government would con- sider the advisability of further defining the term mess pork.
The Committee having risen and report- ed the resulutions, Mr. Foster moved that they be read a second time and concurred
in. ‘The resolutions were read a second time and agreed to, and a bill founded
thereon was introduced and read a first time.
The House then went into Committee of Supply, taking up several items of the main estimates left over on previous occa- sions. After the committee rose Mr. Wal- lace’s bill amending the Combines Bill was read a third tumd and passed. The House adjourned at 12.50.

*arnell on Land Purchase. Lonpon, April 22.
In the Commons yesterday, Parnell moved that the Irish land purchase bill be rejected by the House, aad spoke at length in support of his motion. The Parnellites are divided in their opinions on Parnell’s motion. They think an explanation is nect ssary.
The Pall Mall Gazette says if the proposal had been brought in by the English Cabinet it would be overwhelmed with every epithet of execration that the Irish imagination could invent.
The Chronile and Teleyraph both consid- erthat the alternative proposed by him
aion of his property by means of his tenant, the mortgager. It would be inconsistent to give a epecial vote on property and refuse a apecial vote to a mortgagee.
Mr. Farquharson aygued that the mortgagee had an interest in the locality in which his money was invested, and should, therefore, have the right to vote in that district.
Mr. McMillan was willing to do away with all but one vote ; but he could not see any sease in letting one min vote on an interest in land amouniing to only $64 s year and refusing a vote to a morgagee whose interest might amounte to a large gum.
Mr. Peters contended that unless it was intended to alter the franchise altogether, it should be left as it is, and declared that if all the mortgages were to be drawn in, agriculture could not be carried on in this Province, Mr. Peters argued that any- thing which injures the locality in which the mortgagee’s interest is, injures him: his interest is to maintain the value of his security.
Mr. Rogers pointed out that the only real interest the mortgagee had was to get the interest on his investment, and to get his money back. The mortgagee does not add anything to the value of the property. He takes very good care that the property isof much greater value than the money he advanced upon it. He pays no taxes. He is not entitled to a vote on account of his interest in the property.
Mr. J. R. McLean ssid that mortgages are, in many instances, a great advantage tothe country. Farmers in the country have, at times, to borrow money.
Hon. Mr. Ferguson said that it was not, in the first place, the intention of the Legislature, to give to a mortgagee the right to vote. Mortgagees never voted as such until 1875 or 1876, when some of the lawyers took the point that they could do 80 ; but there were yet lawyers and laymen whowill not vote on their mortgages for the reason that they believe that to do so is un- lawful and wreng. One of the evil results of voting upon mortgages is the system of espionage which it has engendered. Many persons have been very much annoyed by reason of the watch that is majatained to Gixcover whose farms are mortgaged and who is the mortgagee. Again, he had known three mortgagees to vote over the head of one mortgagor. He believed that Yoling on mortgages was unknown in any other country.
House took recess.

Parnells inconsistency. Dusty, April 22.
The Freemans Journal (Home Rule) says it is certainly curious to fiud Parnell pro- posing a scheme by which landlords will be retained in Ireland.
The Express (Conservative) says Parnell’s proposal is «remarkable one, coming from such a quarter. His proposal asserts a principle for which the landlords vainly contended before the Irish Land Act was passed in 1881.
