A dispatch from Rome to the Pall Mal! Gazlle says the negotiations between Ger- many and the Vatican have failed. Prince Bismarck’s ultimatum of obedience to May laws was refused by the deposed_Btshops, in letters addressed to the Pope. The Bavarian and Austrian Nuncios have been entrusted with a confidential mission to Prince Bismarck, but no hepes are entertained of their success, Germany will concede nothing, and the Vati- can cannot yield all without alienating its most faithful partisans.

Reuter’s dispatch from Rome says: ‘‘ Areh- bishop of Jacobin, the Papal Nuncio at Vienna, will. proceed to that city via Geneva and Munich, At the latter city he will deliver to Monsignor Masela, the Papal Nuncio, instruc- tions respecting the negotiations between Cer- many and the Vatican.”

Lord Dufferin’s reply to the address of the Commercial Traveller’s Society at Tor. onto was very amusing. It was as follows :

But there is a still closer tie which attracts me towards you, because after all what am I myself but a commercial traveller? (Laughter aud applause.) [I am a commercial traveller who has travelled more and further than any of you. (Renewed laughter.) Ihave vaunted my wares with as much earnestness and sin- cere belief in their excellence as any gentleman ‘present. (Loud laughter.) I have endeavored

to extend our connections, and to push the business of our House—(great laughter)—with energy and integrity (laughter and applause) —and as you are good enough to assure me---

to the satisfaction of my employers—(great applause)—and amongst those who have ac- dressed me there are none in a better position than yourselves to give me an assurance on /such a point, as you are in the habit of mixing | 30 intimately with all classes of the community. (Loud applause.)

Mr. Heartz’s Letter.

To the Editor of the Examiner.

Str,—Having been earnestly solicited by the friends of a remnant of the Local Govera- ment to support Mr. Dodd in the coming election, and having neither intention nor de- sire to do otherwise than leave it to its fate, | wish to give my reasons publicly for so doing. With Mr. Dodd asa private indivi- dual [ have nothing to do or say, further than to state that, if it were a question of men and not measures, Mr. Dodd should have my sup- port. But Mr. Dodd comes out asa supporter of a Government that has lost the confidence of the whole country—and the sooner it dies the better for the Island. What have they done for us? They have taxed us in the most arbitrary manner ever known to the people of this Jsland. ‘Take the poll-tax for imstance. You receive your account or notice to pay within ten days ; if you neglect payment, the officer comes into your house, demands the dollar, with ninety cents adJed, and, if unable to pay the dollar with the ninety cents costs, off you may go to jail, without appeal or rem- edy of any sort. This I consider a public grievance, and will not support it. Besides this, the country is dissatistied with their tax- ation, a large proportion of which is consumed by hungry officials. And, again, look at their conduct in the Asylum case. See the gross unfairness imposed upon us asa people. The chasing and hunting those strangers, in the tirst place, was unwarranted and uncalled for. Did they do it because we had no men in the Island that were competent to do the work? Let’ what is left of the Government answer that question before they finally go under. And then, when the work was viewed and surveys held, how is it that the report of those surveys has never been made public? The people had to find out the best way they could, instead of getting it through the proper channel. Why did they not discharge those unfaithful con- tractors and unqualified inspector, who were imposing on the public? They had all power to do so if they chosed ; but, instead of doing as they should have done, they tried to justify and favor them in every possible way, allow- ing them to use materials strictly forbidden by the specifications—that is, salt water sand instead of fresh water sand; cedar sawn shingles, instead of split pine of the best quality ; also a departure from the specifica. tions in the matter of French drains, and in placing three additional inspectors on the work without sere the first. 1 leave my readers to judge of the choice they made in selecting some of those inspectors. 1] would remark how unkind their treatment was to- wards their own supporters that fought their battles and placed them in positions of honor and emolument ; and well we have been paid for it—the place filled with strangers, and our own mechanics thrown out of employment ; strangers eating their bread and themselves going hungry, with heavy taxation and a cold winter staring them in the face. I now come to make an appeal te my fellow-citizens. What are you going to do? Are you going to prop up the dying Govern ment, or are you going- to number them with the dead—never more to Lave yeur con- fidence? You have been shamefully treated, Your money is carried off by. people that do not care for you; and not only the mechanic and jJaborer, but the truckmen also, are put out of employment, and the short-tailed Nova Scotia oxen take their place.

Eeeling assured that you view the ease in its true colours, and that you will work for the good of the country, you. shall have my sympathy and support in removing one of the meanest Governments that ever existed, Thanking you, Mr. Editor, for your kindnes,

{ remain, yours, &c., CHARLES HEARTZ.

Hon. Dr. Tupper’s Position.

‘The following is the position taken by Hon. Dr. Tupper in regard to jthe McKenzie Gov- ernment and their powers of appointment. It is from his speech at the Rink on the occasion of the ovation tendered him by Halifax :-

‘‘ L speak of the McKenzie Government as the Government of to-day, but not of to-mor- row, for no one can doubt that the first act of the Government when they come to-gether will be to make way for their successors, and vacate a position to which they have proved themselves unequal. I say with confidence, for I am bound to believe that the present Gov- ernment will feel themselves governed now by tke same rules which they laid down in 1874, when they insisisted that every act done by their predecessors, after a vote of want of con- fidence had been moved, must be taken to be null and void. Mr. McKenzie, having re- quired the Queen’s Representative to cancel all the appointments made by the late Gov- ernment after the vote of want of confidence was moved, although we had a majority to sustain us down tothe hour of our resigna- tion, it is impossible to suppose that he can now ask the Crown to sanction appointments made by a Government after sustaining an overwhelming defeat in the court of ultimate aw the people at the polls. Under these circumstances, it is fair to assume that no execntive act will be performed by [tke present Government previous to the appoint- ment of their successors other than is strictly necessary and unavoidable.

Lord Dufferin in a speech at Toronto, on Thursday, before the Society of Arts, before his departure for Ottawa, said that recently on the occasion of meeting the Governor of New York State, he had su to the latter that the Government of New York and of Ontario, or Canada, shoald combine to a- quire whatever rights may have been estab- lished against the public, and te form around Niagara Falls a small public, international park. The suggestion has been met with cordial split by the Governor of New

| York.
