Several days ago, | indeed, its general scope and tenor were) confidently predicted by people whose pro- ; phetic inspiration was probably derived from an official source.

The Paris correspondent of the Times says: The chief thing remarked here is Prince Bismarck’s desire tu absolve Ger- many from all responsibility, and to :nain- tain a just equilibrium between Russian and Austria.

After this speech people are more than} ever discussing the policy of England.

OUR OTTAWA DESPATCH.

(Special Despatch to Daily Examiner. ) Orrawa, Feb. 21, 1878.

Young, of Waterloo, said that owing to the present Dominion duty on malt, the United States threatened to place prohibi- tory duty on it. This would. prevent Can- adians benefitting of United States market.

Cartwright said, to avoid this the Govern- ment proposed to reduce the duty.

Decosmos made a charge that McKenzie had broken faith with British Columbia in the matter of the Esquimault graving dock. He occupied most of the afternoon in prob- ing such charges.

Cartwright will deliver the budget speech to-morrow.

Orrawa, Feb. 22.

Decosmos, in moving for the Pacific Rail- way correspondence, said that the Govern- ment had violated the bargain respecting the grant of two hundred and fifty thousand dollars for the graving dock. He read let- ters from Tilleyand Langevin and telegrams from McKenzie, showing the nature ot the bargain, and claimed it had been violated by the present Government.

Mr. Bunster attacked the Grovernment on the same point, amd urged the buying of Alaska.

Mr. Blain moved that an address be pre- sented to Her Majesty praying, an amend- ment of the British North America Act, giving the Canadian Parliament power to fix, from time to time, the number of the Commons and Senate ; he said on the pre sent basis we would have 2,291 members when our population equalled that of the United States. He believed the present nnmber large enough, but the smaller would be better. He argued that the bar- gain with the smaller Provinces respecting representation was unconstitutional and could not be carried out. Representation by population was the principal of the British North America Act, yet British Columbia was entitled to but one member.

Mr. Masson said the people had not asked for a change. He believed in the English principle of leaving well enough alone, and would meddle with the Constitution only when necessary. :

‘The Premier said the power of fixing re- presentation should be in the Canadian Parliament. No fear that in our time our number will increase very considerably— not more than ten and twelve with each He advised the withdrawal of the

census, motion, ooo.

Mr. Mitchell explained the principle of representation at the Union, showing that the members of the House did not neces- sarily increase with increase of population, as the representation of this Province was xed and that ef the others was regulated ‘hereby. The country was prospering un- dev its Constitution, notwithstanding hard

RemeMBER the lecture to be delivered by the Rev. D. FitzGerald inthe Y. M. C. A. Hall this evening at 8 o'clock. Subject: ‘* Knowledge is Power.”’

Tats forenoon, a boy about six years old, son of Isaac Godken, of Edward Street. fell off a fence in that vicinity, and had his right leg broken below the knee. Dr. Taylor was summoned, and the leg was set. Under the painful circumstances the little fellow is, we hear, doing well.

Tas Patriot says that the Hon. D. Davies left for Ottawa yesterday. Our contempo- rary is wildly energetic. Mr. Davies will not leave till to-morrow... Seeing that the Patriot anticipates events with such pre- cision, he will, perhaps, be able to inform the public how it comes that Mr. Davies has not gone to Ottawa long ago! Is he displeased with the Premier, and anxious to show his disrespect for the head of the Goy- ernment by going up late ?

Tue Rev. M. R. Kyicut, B. A., deliv- ered a very interesting lecture on “‘ Famous Canadians,” before the Souris Reform Club, on Wednesday evening, 20th inst. He re- viewed the characters of the great men of Canada—famous at home and abroad in the various callings of life. Clergymen, states- | men, lawyers, doctors, scientists, artists and heroes from the army and navy, who have | added fame to Canada’s history were intro- | duced and graphically described. The lec- | ture was eloquent, patriotic and replete with | sound advice to young men. The Rev. lec- turer predicted a brilliant future for the Do- minion—instancing many of its great natur- al advantages, and the wide fields now being opened up for the development of native talent. A vote of thanks was unanimously tendered to the lecturer, which he appro- | priately acknowledged.

“Tas Rev. Dr. O’Brien delivered a splen- did lecture on ‘‘ Pagan and Christian Rome” in Georgetown, on Thursday night. The, Advertiser says: ‘‘The Town Hall waa, crowded with people last night to hear the, Rev. Dr. O’Brien deliver a lecture on| “Pagan and Christian Rome.” After a few introductory remarks by the Chairman, the lecturer came forward and was greeted ! with a round of applause.
