But the principal charge it now has tc prefer

amendment which the Legislative Council is said to have offered—providing that a ertain class of persons be exempted from yoli tax This is said to have been one of eir ‘‘political tricks.” The fact is that the Legislative Council in their message to House of Assembly made no re-

stray sheets of paper enclosed in the Bill, and Mr. Beer agreed with Mr. M-Leod that they must have been put there by mistake, md that the House could not take cogni- zance of them. Mr. John Yeo, another old Parliamentarian and ex-Speaker, acquiesced in this view. When these facts are called to

nind,it is the more evident that the ‘‘trick”’

is not of Messrs. McLeod and Blake; But when coupled with the fact that the Patriot and the canvassers for the Opposi- tion candidates are trying to make capital out of it, the infrence becomes clear that

the “political trick” is attributible solely to the Upper House, and that the member for the city in that branch is its author.

A Fight with Rioters.

TERRIBLE SCENES IN THE STREETS OF BELFAST.

A Belfast despatch of the 11th says :— An associated press reporter, who was de- tailed to remain on the scene of the riots, at 5 oclock this morning reported as fol- lows: ‘‘I remained among the rioters all night. The greatest damage in the way of wrecking and looting was done along the Shank Hill and the York Roads. The fighting in both thoroughfares was desper- ate and continuous. The mob was com- posed of the lowest ruffians. The bayonets of the police had no terrors for them, and in many cases I saw the mob, in over- whelming numbers, press up against the bayonets of the police and drive them back. The only instances in which the police drove the mob at all, so far as I observed, were those in which the officers, in compact lines, fired at close range rapid volleys of buck- shot. These the rioters could nét stand against, and they were driven back. But even under such galling fire the rioters would drop to the pavement and rush upon the police while they were reloading. Fighting of this kind at such close range as to be practically hand to hand was con- tinued until two o'clock this morning, when twilight began to dawn and so many of the rioters disappeared as to leave the mob of insufficient strength to cope with the armed police, who succeeded in dis- persing it. My observation shows that the mob of last night was composed of the very scum of Belfast. I saw numbers of it throw paving stones weighing 15 and 20 lbs. I even saw fiends hurling rocks at the gallant firemen who were imperilling their lives in attempting to save dwellings from destruc- tion by incendiary fires and the helpless inmates from horrible deaths. If anything else were wanting to prove the character of the mob it would be furnished by the dozen of ruffians I saw during the night sneaking away from wreckedeor burning buildings laden with loot. It is impossible to des- cribe the state of terror under which the respectable Catholic people of Belfast are now living, in consequence of the prevalent anarchy and bigotry. The bravest of them hardly dare to venture out of doors in day- light even. I know that scores of people

were shot during last night’s riots. I[ saw ten taken to hospitals this morning. It is

feared that every funeral of a victim of the riots may provoke @ fresh outbreak. The law-abiding citizens demand of the govern- ment the appointment of a special commis- sion to enquire into the causes of the whole disorder.” ET ETI 8 Eee

(SrectaL Desratcues To Tur EXAMINER. } What Gladstone Says.

Lonpon, June 14.

Gladstone has issued a lengthy address to the electors, in which he says ‘‘that Par- liament has been dissolved in order to ob- tain the decision of the nation on the simplest, yet the gravest subject that has been submitted to it for half a century.” He further says that the gravity of the situation alone induces him, at his time of life, to seek a seat in the new Parliament.

He (Gladstone) had hoped that the late Conservative Government would have dealt with the Irish problem, instead of which they had proposed to resume coercion. The Irish question was thus placed in the foreground, to the exclusion of every other matter. All felt that the hour had come, the only point remaining to be determined was the manner in which the question was to be dealt with. In his opinion coercion was not justifiable, and was doomed to cer- tain and disgraceful failure. Some method of governing Ireland—other than coercion —ought, as I thought, to be sought for and found. I therefore viewed with regret the downfall of the Conservative Cabinet, and when I was summoned to form anew one I undertook to do so upon the basis of an anti-coercion policy. I made the fullest ex- planations to those whose aid [ sought as colleagues, when I proposed to grant a domestic legislature to Ireland, and thus maintain the honor and consolidate the unity of the Empire.

The government was formed and the work was at once put en train. You will, therefore, understand how and why it is that the affairs of Ireland, and for the first time, have thrust aside every other subject and j-ostponed our hopes of useful and pro-

gressive legislation. Thus it is that this great and simple issue has come upon you and demands your prompt decision. Will

you govern Ireland by coercion, or will you let Lreland manage her own affairs /

Gladstone enumerates the following as among the benefits of accepting his policy : the consolidation of a United Empire and a great addition to its strength—the stoppage of a heavy, constant and demoral- izing waste of the public treasury—the abatement and gradual extinction of ignovle feuds in Ireland, and that development of her resources, which experience shows to be the natural consequence of a free aud orderly government—-the redemption of the honor of Great Britain from the stigma fastened upon it, almost from time immem- orial, in the judgment of the whole civilized world with regard to her treatment of Ireland, and lastly, the restriction of the Imperial Parliament to its proper dignity and efficiency, and the regular progress of the business of the country. The question i now put to you is: ‘*How shall Ireland be governed ¢”

Boston Markets.

Boston, June 9.

Porators—Chvice stock are not plenti- ful and prices are a little firmer. Eastern Hebrons more readily command 70c, and best Houlton Rose are taken at 65c. East- ern Prolifics have been selling at 60 to 65 cts. Northern stock range from 50 to SScts. P. E. Island Chenangees are firmer with sales at 48 to 50cts.

Fish—-There is no material change to note in the Fish market. Receipts of new mackerel continue light and for these ex- treme prices can be obtained, but trade is slow and old mackerel are about as hard as ever to sell. Some 144 bris new mackerel from Nova Scotia sold at $6.50 per brl, in- cluding large and small out of pickle; and a few lots of fresh are selling at 7 to 10 cts. each. Advices from Nova Scotia state that the weir mackerel fishexy has Sbeen a fail- ure, not more than 500 bris having been taken the whole season, and very few more are expected from Barrington or Yarmouth. A trip of fresh mackerel has arrived from Cape Shore, N. S., from which sales have been made at $7 per 100, the fish not being im the best of order. Old Shore mackerel cannot be quoted over $5 to $6 per bbl. in round lots. Small lots of extras are held higher, but dealers are not willing to give over $5 for most of the stock here. Nova Scotia old Mackerel sell slowly, and sales generally rule under $5. Codfish are not much called for, and $1.50 to $1.75 is a full quotation for pickle-cured Bank. Old dry Bank are quiet at $2.50, and new at $2.75 to $3. New Georges rule at $2.75 to $3 per qtl. Nothing of consequence doing in Hake, Haddock or Pollock. Pickled Her- ring dull and prices nominal. Smoked Herring are selling fairly at 12 to ld4c. per box for large, and 15 to 16c. for strictly medium scaled. Fresh Salmon 14 to 17e. per lb.

CaNNED Goops— Lobsters are in fair de- mand and have been advanced to $1.65 to $1.70 per doz., duty paid. Mackerel are lower and selling at 55 to 60c. We quote : Lobsters per doz, $1.65 to $1.75; Mackerel, ode to 60c.

Eaas.—Trade has been rather light, but prices are maintained, and the besteurades of Eastern are closely sold up. Sales of Eastern at 124 to 13¢; Northern and Pro- vincial 11} to 12c: and Western at 11 to pAlic. BP. . 1, first dell bt Atm Lb} to 12
