he Letellier Matter.

Hox. Wa. MeDoveatt, writing to’ the Free Press, of the 24th, concerning the Letel- lier matter, says :—

‘“The Administration of Sir John A. Me- Donald was constitutionally bound to act upon instructions of the representatives of the people, or resign. : ‘ by the Legislative Assembly ot Quebec, in which it is more than suggested that the re- moval of Mr. Letellier by the Federai Parlia- ment apd Government would be an encroach- ment ov the ,rights ef the Province, have, in my opinion, rendered it impossible for Parlia ment or Government to recede. It would be treason to the Constitution to admit such a doctriue; and as it has been boldly proclaimed and solemnly recorded, | see but one way to contradict it, and mamtain the rights of the Dominion, ”

Our exchanges confirm the news that

Letellier has been dismissed, and that the Hon. Dr. Robitaille, M. P., is to be Lieu- tenant-(iovernor of Quebee in his stead. Of the latter, an exchange says he is a centleman of education, and refinement and

most courteous manners, he has also the

advantaye of a wide range of acquaintances among the public and professional men of Quebec Province, an extended pelitical ex- perience and a most satisfactory political education. The Joly Ministry will have little room for complaint in their relations with the new Governor, who is probably one of the most high-minded gentlemen in Canada. The Parliamentary Companion contains the following sketch of the honer- able gentleman, whom we most heartily congratulate on his merited elevation :—

Roprrau.te, Hon. Turopvore, M. D. ( Bona- ventire), P.Q. ~

Descended from one of the oldest French families in Can.; one of his grand-uncles, Messire lobitaille, was chaplain to the Active Militia force of L. C., during the war ef 1812, in which all the family took an active part on the loyal side ; asecond grand-uncle, the Rev. Louis Brodeur, after spending seven years as a missionary in N. B., was appt. a curate of the parish of St. Roch des Aulnets, where he died, bequeathing his wealth to the St. Anne Col- lege, of which he was one of the founders ; an- other grand-uncle, Jean Robitaille, Esq., wasa mem. of the Can. Legislature for twenty years, viz.: from 1809 to 1829. S. of the late Louis Adolphe Robitaille, Esq., N. P. B. at Var- ennese, P. Q., 29 Jan., 1834. Ed. at the Model Sch. of that place, in the United States, at the Seminary of St. Therese, the Laval University, and the University of McGill Col- lege, Montreal, at the latter of which he gra- duated M. D., May, 1858. M. Nov. 1867, Marie Josephine Charlotte Emma, dau. of P. A. Quesnal, Esq., and grand-dau. of the late Hon. F. A. Quesnel, for many years an M. L. |. of Can. Is President of the Baie des Chaleurs Railway. Sworn of the Privy Council, and was Receiver-Gen ef Can.; from 30 Jan., 1873, until 5th Nov. same year, when he resigned with his chief, Sir John McDonald, on the Pacific Rail- way matier. Sat for present seat in Can. Assembly from g. e., 1361, until the Union returned to Commons at g. e., 1867 ; re-elect- ed at the g. e., 1872; returned, by acclama- tion, on his appt. to office, and again returned at g. e. of 1874 and 1879. Represented Bona- venture in Quebec Assembly g. e., 1871, until Jan., 1874, when he retired in order to confine himself to Commons. A Conservative.—Vew Carlisle, P. Q.; Rideau Club,

The Brazilian Trade.

Tue New York J//erald publishes a letter from its correspondent at Rio Janeiro, a para- graph of which contains something interesting to the people of this Island :—

‘It seems that the Canadian Government has offere a subsidy of $50,000 to a direct line between Canada and Rio, im addition to the discriminating duties in favor of coffee and sugar imported direct from the producing countries. These measures of Canada have aroused inuch attention of late, aa being de- cidedly favorable to Brazilian trade, and it is probable that the Legislature would vote a subsidy 0! $50,000 more ($100,000) to a Cana- dian line, if proposed. ‘The Minister of Agri- culture is disposed toward measures to take advantage of the provisions ef the Canadian tariff, but hitherto no official communication thereupon has been made to the Brazilian (jovernment forit to act upon. It is said, however, that a Canadian agent is expected here very soon to negotiate arrangements for establishing direct trade in coffee and sugar from Brazil and flour from Canada.”

If the Krazilian market were but opened up, a3 proposed by the Government, we should be able advantageously to send many articles there besides flour; and the more directly sugar and coffee can be brought here, and the lirger our sources of supply, the more cheaply it will{be obtafned—and, consequently, the better for the consumer.

Faction.

lv weuld be well if all our politicians studied the course zpproved of by Sir Staf- ford Northcote’s {recent Tower Hamlets speech :—

‘*L have said that [ like party spirit and party associations ; but let me say, on the on the other hand, that while I lke party spirit, I dislike faction mere. Don’t for a moment suppose that party spirit and faction mean anything like the same thing. There is just as much difference between a healthy party spirit and the mean and base spirit of faction as there is between the noble passion of emulation and the base passion of envy. We all desire to do the best we can for our country: —we all desire to play the first part if we can in doing good service to the

country. If it falls to our lot, we desire to sur our rivals and opponents in doing that goed; but if, on the other hand,

it should fall into their hands to discharge the duties which are new assigned to us, be sure that we sheuld feel that it was our duty to our country and to ourselves to co- operate with, and not thwart, the Ministers of the country.”

Expulsion of the Jews.

REVIVAL OF THE HOTEL MOVEMENT ACAINST JEWISH VISITORS.

War against the Jews which was carried on at Saratoga two years ago is apparently to be revived at Coney Island; this time it is in the quarter where the Jewish residents of New York city are particularly aimed at. Austin Corbin, President of the Manhattan Beach Company, has taken an open stand against admitting Jews te the beach or hotel. Gilmore, leader of the Manhattan Beach band said Corbin told him he was going to oppose the Jews, and that he would rather sink the two millions invest- ed in the railway and hotel than havea single Israelite take advantage of its attrac- tiens. Corbin says the Jews are detestable, vulgar and pretentious people.

There is considerable excitement in New York over the announcement that the Jews will be excluded from Manhattan Beacli. Austin Corbin, President of the Company, owning the hotel and railroad, was waited on by many prominent Hebrews on Tues- day, but would not retract. Levy, the cornetist at Manhattan Beach, is a Jew. In an interview, he is emphatie in opposing prohibitory regulations, and says all the great composers were Jews, and that nothing should be done to keep Beacons- field away from the Beach. Many promi- nent Hebrews were interviewed, and de- nounce bitterly the action of the Beach Company, as a revival of the prejudice ex- cited by similar action by Judge Hilton at the Grand Union Hotel, Saratoga.

Sir A. T. Galt. It is rumored in Ottawa that Sir A. T. Galt’s mission to England is with the object ot ,establishing a national banking system. The ;jrumor obtains some credence from the fact that the bank charters expire next year. in this connection it might be stated that Sir A. T. Galt, while in Montreal lately, said that his visit to England was in connection with financial 'matters, and inno way relating to the Letellier business. It is supposed that a part of his mission will be te endeavor to com- plete the trade negotiations with France and Spain.
