SEPTEMBER 6, 1879.

The Quebec Crisis.

Tue Quebec Assembly has, on motion of Mr. Joly, been adjourned until the 28th of October next. The motion for this ad- journment was carried by two votes only one of Mr. Joly’s supporters (Mr. Paquet) having voted against it. Mr. Flynn supporter of Mr. Joly— adjournment

also oa ; previous to the pleaded strongly fer a coalition, and in the course of his remarks said ‘‘he believed there

ere many members on the other side of the House who would be acceptable as Ministers by the majority of the House.” Several supporters of Mr. Joly who fought ‘¢ tooth and nail” for him during the strug- gle are known to be in favor of coalition.

During the discussion on the adjourn- ment motion, a question was raised by Mr. which may prove important. News, @ liberal paper,

Chapleau The St. says :—

“He argued that under the circumstances adjournment was equivalent to prorogation and as prorogation could not take place without the Lieutenant Governors consent, he inquire whether His Honor’s consent to the adjournment had been obtained. Mr. Joly refused to answer, and Mr. Irvine argued that it was to be assumed with- out inquiry that His Honor had been consulted confidentially. Clearly, the point raised was a ticklish one. It is ad- mitted on all sides that the Lieutenant Governor is master of the situation, if he

John

- chooses to interfere ; and as Mr. Joly is

determined to fight to the last ditch, it will be a great matter for him not to give the Governor just ground for taking sides against him. We note that Mr. Speaker Turcette stood bravely by Mr. Joly to the last moment. In the closing striggles important points of order were raised. Mr. Speaker, with the greatest promptitude and great gaiety of heart, ruled invariably in favor of the Government contention. In the closing’debate the Gov- ernment was reminded that the half yearly payment of interest on the public debt would be due on the Ist November. Mr. Treasurer Langelier joyfully responded, ‘« We have a million in the Treasury.’

on beard, arrived at East Point reef at 2

o'clock yesterday. At that time about five hutidred tons of iron and salt had been thrown overboard and the greater amount of the tine cargo transferred from the Que- bec to schooners. Previous to the Northern Livht’s arrival, the tug Dragon, of Pictou, made an unsuccessful attempt to tow the

steamer off. At nine o’clock the Northern |

Lijht and Dragon were hitched to the Que- ber, and after an hour’s hard tugging, suc- cecded in towing her off the reef. The Quebec is but little damaged. Afler re- loading a quantity of her cargo she sailed for Montreal. The Northern Light arrived in this city at nine o’clock this morning. Sl anette tanneries

Moneron’s Ewnrererise.—A Moncton correspendent writes :—‘‘I notice the fel- lowing in your issue of Saturday last :—‘: factory is about to be started in Moncton for the manufacture of the Peters’ Com- bination Lock. The people have already subscribed $22,000 stock. The town ex- empts the enterprise from taxation, and the water and gas companies also offer special inducements.’ This paragraph does not do full justice to our enterprise. The com- pany styled the ‘Peters Combination Lock Company’ has a capital of $200,000, $22,000 of which has been subseribed as stated. It absorbs the Peters Combination Lock Com-

rvislation; indeed his name is in- asures of the past thirty years ; while as Prime Minister he ‘has upheld the honor of England abroad and done much to con- solidate the Empire the world over. Sir John McDonald took to politics when Canada was but little more than a geo- graphical expression, and has participated as one of the chief actors in all her strug- eles and triumphs. Both have undoubt- edly made mistakes—it is only your Liberal statesman who never goes astray—but future history will bear witness to their earnest patriotism, their self denial and singleness of purpose. That the people whom they serve appreciate their labors and admire their political course, is evi- denced by the fact that each in his own country is supported by the fact that each in his own country is supported by un paralled Parliamentary majorities; and that oth enjoy the esteem and confidence of the Sovereign, whom they have served dur- ing the best half of her long and _pros- perons reign.

He would have beena bold man who had dared to prophesy thirty years ago that the Hebrew literateur and the young Can- adian lawyer would one day be Premier of England and Canada respectively, and would meet in the plenitude of their power in one of England’s ‘‘ ancestral halls” to en- joy each other’s society. The lesson of both their lives is that under British insti- tutions the read to the highest preferment is open to all, plebian and patrician alike. Our cousins often. boast that every native- born American hasa lien on the Presidency; but even the Republic with its Jacksons, Lincolns, and Grants, cannot show nobler examples of what unaided ability and _ per- severance can accomplish in the way of se- curing political distinction. Lord Beacons- field and Sir John Macdonald are both old men. They do not “lag superflous on the stage,” but they are veterans whose day is, in the ordinary course, drawing towards evening. This is their first and probably it will be their last social meeting; and withovt presuming to invade its privacy, one can imagine without much effort what a store of recollections each will bring up. They have been part ef the history of the most important sections of the Empire for more than a generation, and may without vanity indulge in mutual congratulation. In the Eastern hemisphere the one has re- established England’s nameand fame; in the Western world the other has laid broad and deep the foundations of that Great Britain whose mission is full ef glorious promise. We pay homage to these veterans at Hugh- enden, not because they belong to a certain political stripe, but because ‘hey have shown themselves capable of the highest unassisted endeavor, because they represent the triumph of genius, and because, with lall their faults, they have served Soverign Jand Empire faithful and well.—Toronto + Mail.

The Toronto Exhibition.

| The Industrial Exhibition at Toronto, ‘which was to be visited by the Vice-Regal | party on Friday, is quite a grand affair | Judging from the description of it given in

the Toronto papers. The main building is

cruciform in shape, of the regular orthodox | Crystal Palace style of architecture, with wings extending 292 feet east and west, and 213 feet north and sonth. These wings are | 64 feet in width, so that it will beseen that | the structure covers a great deal of ground, |and with its ample galleries, will contain a | great many people. This, however, is but }one of a number of buildings devoted to ithe uses of the Exhibition. There is

a Dairy 6 by 66 feet; an Agricultural Hall

102 feet »y 52 feet; a Horticultural Hall of |

the same. dimensions: a Restaurant capable of dining 300 people at once; a Carriage | Building, 252 feet by 42 feet; a Hatching House for hatching chickens by steam ; a Machinery Hall, 202 feet by 52 feet; an {Agricultural Implement building with | wings extending 232 feet in one direction, ‘and 188 feet in the other; a Poultry Build- |ing 218 feet by 85 feet, and several other | structures of minor importance, meluding 'a Police Building. The total number of structures which have been erected in con- nection with the Exhibition is no less than , twenty-three, and some of them have been quite costly, The exhibits are said to be

on this factory, and, in addition to locks of ly be proud. —St. John Telegraph.
