The report of the directors stated that the passenger traffic had doubled their expectations. The growing trade imperative- ly demanded a gecond boat equal to the Halifax. The directors are now negotiating for the purchase of such a steamer. Notwith- standing the disadvantages under which the company have labored a handsome profit has been made, which, if maintained during the year, will ensure a good dividend.

Orrawa, Feb. 6. In the Commons to day Mr. Clark, of Vailace, introduced his bill for the pression of combinations in trade. he stated, at
sup- it aims,
a

while denying to
any one person, any person privileges granted to some. The punishment provid ed for is fine or imprisonment, or both. | Trade unions will not be interfered with.
Sir John Thompson, in reply to Mr. Edgar, suid it was not the present intention | of the Government to make any alteration in the Reilway Act, consequent on the Supreme Court’s decision on the Manitoba CTOSSINYS case.
Mr. Landerkin’s motion for a return showing the cost of the issue of the Budget Speech for each year 1880, was, at the suggestion of Hon. Mr. Foster, amend- ed to cover the whole period since 1869, and so altered passed
Mr. MeMullen moved for copies of all inspection reports made by the Homestead Inspector in Manitaba and the Northwest Territories from Ist January, 1887, to Ist | January, 1889.
In reply, Hon. Edgar Dewdney said the

In moving for papers relative to the dis mnissal of Hon. Wm. Ross, collector of toms at Halifax, Mr. Laur to him that Mr. Ross had been dismissed simply for an act of courtesy to an Amer can and if sO, the a ‘tion of the Government invited the closest scrutiny of the House. °
Sir John Macdonald then arose to make the explanation asked for by Mr. Laurier concerning changes in the Cabinet since last session. It was thought advisable, he said, that Sir Charles Tupper, Minister of Finance, should return to the post of High Commissioner in London, and, therefore, Hon. Mr. Foster had been made Finance Minister in his stead. C. H. Tupper was made Minister of Marine and Fisheries in the place of Hon. Mr. Foster. Then in place of Hon. A. W. MeLelan, appointed Lieut.-Governor of Nova Scotia, Mr. John Haggart became Postmaster General, and Mr. Edgar Dewdney was appointed Min- ister of the laterior in place of the late lamented Mr. White.
Mr. Laurier said no one could complain of the explanation, or rather recitation of the first minister. It was delusive, and if anyone had not failed to read the Canada public newspapers during

Gazette or the the past six months, he could not longer be

| giving cabinet representation to every part
But it seemed to him that the ovcurrence should have invited sume comment from the first minister. He declined to tender his congratulations to the Minister of Finance. He was only & young man in the House, but his promotion had been rapid. He sincerely wished for this new officer that he would find strength, courage and patience to resist the applications of the friends of the N. P.
who, ever dissatisfied with it, were like
Oliver Twist continually asking for more. As for the new Postmaster-Genera!, from his record in the Howse, he
had no doubt he would be an efti- cient head for the Department. The new Minister of Marine and Fisheries was a young man, which was an advantage. He was ambitious, which was not out of place, and had a great possibility of making him- self useful to his country. He advised him to cultivate the art of kindness and gentle- ness in the administration of the fisheries trouble, rather than harshness or cruel treatment. As to the Minister cf the Interior, he was sorry to say that in the discharge of his public duty as leader of the Opposition he could not let his appointment pass without severe censure. To the gentlemen, personally, he had no objections, but remembering the history of affairs in which he had taken a prominent part, he thought the appoint- ment could not but be viewed with alarm.
Sir John Macdonald, on rising to reply,
opened with a_ reference to the character of Dickens, in whose con- versation the head of Charles
the First constantly appeared. Similarly the leader of the Opposition could not for- get that he had sympathized with the bat- tles of the Saskatchewan, and sympathized more warmly than loyally. The address just delivered was an undeserved attack on a man every way his equa!, and vhom, in some respects, he (Sir John) would not compare with the man who had made this attack upon him. He declared that Hon. Mr. Dewdney had nothing more to do with the rebellion than had Mr. Laurier him- self. Sir Johu concluded with the state- ment that there had been.in some quarters a feeling of dissatisfaction that no western man had an oftice in the Ministry, and the fact that Mr. Dewdney would represent a North-west constituency and thus aid in
of the Dominion was an additional reason for his appointment.
Laurier’s attack. Hon. Peter Mitchell wound up the debate. He said he thought Mr. Laurier had made a mistake in put- ting so much blame on the Minister of the Interior, because his appointment as muini- ster was a just reward for his services. The House adjourned at 5 o'clock.

The Grand Bouspiel.
HaLiax, Feb. 6,
A heavy easterly rain storm prevailed to- day. The weather is still exceedingly mild, so that no ice formed on the rink, to the great disgust of one hundred visiting curlers to take part in the great bonspiel. \t a meeting this afternoon it was agreed that if it does not freeze to-night and there is no ice at seven to-morrow morning, the bonspiel would be declared off and the curlers would take the first train home, in which case the respective clubs of each Province will play off and the winning
cup. If it freezes to-night, one series of | games will be played to-morrow, and the | bonspiel will probably end in that case by |
the winning clubs playing for the cup.
The Montreal Carniyal. Monrreat, Feb. 6.
A tremendous snow storm to-day put a cold damper on proceedings. | However, the bombardment and capture cf the ice castle by 400 brilliantly uniformed snowshoers, who led the march down from Mount Royal, was a splendid sight. The vast multitude of visitors from Ontario and the States admit it was worth a three days’ journey to see. To-morrow the great fancy drive will take place. It will un- doubtedly be the greatest thing of the kind ever witnessed on this continent.
