Riel.
Some misguided men and the Grit party, are trying to make a hero and saiut of Riel, simply because he was, according to law, hauged for his crimes ; aud it is said he died for a glorious cause,
As to the cause: in his evidence for the defence, at the trial of Riel, Father Audre thus spoke of the subsiautiality of the alleged grievances: —
“The claims of the half breeds changed fre- quently after Ktiel’s arrival. Before that they wanted patents for their lands, scrip as given to the breeds in Manitoba, river urveys and exemp- tion from the Wood tax. The Government re- plied to one of their petitions conceding the ola survey of river lots, This was an important con- cession. The only remaining questions that re- inained were those of patents and wood rights ‘These were in a fair way toward settlement. Avout March ith a telegram was received from the Government making those concessions.”
Oo March 4th, therefore, according to this competent testimony, the grievances of the Metis had disappeared, and to this fact the resort to arms at the instigation of Reil is attributable, Un'ess the ayita- tion could be continued and a crisis pre- ,cipitated, his plans for extorting money from the Government would be dished, aud so the Duck Lake fight was brought ov March 18th.
Now, as to the man, Father Andre ia his evidence said : —
“TJ had anintevriew with Riel regarding his claims against the Government. In fact, I had two interviews with him. He claimed certain in- demnities from the Federal Government. He asked for $100,000. The prisoner said he would take $35,000 at once. He offered to leave the country if he received this last named amount. He intimated that if he was satisfied, the half- breed question would be satisfied also.”
Charles Nolan, a French half-breed, who had many communications with Riel before the rebellion, said: —
In December, 1884, prisoner told witness of his plans. Prisoner told witness he wanted 31090,000 indemnity from the Canadian Government. Riel toid me that if he got the money he was ask- ing the Government fer, he would go anywhere the Government wished. If his presence was objectionable in the Northwest he would go away.”
Thomas H. Jackson, a druggist of rince Albert, gave like evidence: —
“Riel asked me to write some letters to certain Eastern papers placing him in a good lizht. Riel had appiied to the Government for $35,000 for losses. His whole bill against the Government amounted to $100,000. He disclosed his personal motives to meon this occasion. He showed his motives were those of revenge for his supposed ill-treatment by the Government.”
Then, as to what the papers say about the matter, The Moutreal Star, ‘the most widely circulated independent journal in Canada, gives no uncertain sound. On the day before the large meeting in Montreal the Star said :—
‘That the Government amid all the clamors of friends and foes, have held an even and consist- ent course, tivusting to the future for their justifi- cation—if they cannot haveit inthe immediate present—is greatly to their honor. They saw that there was no sense in identifying the cause of Kiel with that of the French-Canadian race in xeneral, and they determined to leave those who had tried to establish such an identification to creep at their leisure out of their curiOus position, The time will come, we venture to say, and not in the very distant future either, when it will not be a title of honor to any politician or journalist to have tried to persuade French-Canadians that Louis Riel in raising the standard of revolt in the Northwest, after vainly proposing to sell himseif to the Government for so many thousands of dollars, represented them or was in any way championing tneir cause or doing credit to the French-Canadian name.”
The Church Guardian (Episcopal) says that ‘certain French-Canadian politicians” are raising a wall of separe- tion between Quebec and the other Proy- inces. It adds :—
“This madness cannot last forever, and when our French fellow-citizens returu to their right mind, they will recognize in those whom they are now execrating and burning in effigy the truest friends of their country and race.”
Tue Toronto Telegram says :—
“The accusations of murder bronght by the Globe and the Oitawa Free Press against Sir John Macdonald only excite disgust, if not re- sentment, in the mind of every intelligent man.”
The ‘Lorouto World says :
2
—
“If Sir John Macdonald went to the country to morrow on this Riel question he would sweep Ontario, Never was a paper so mismanaged in its policy as the Globe has been on this whole Northwest business, and if Mr. Blake has to stand on the platform it has laid down, if he has to assume responsibility for its course, he could not get a baker's dozen in Ontario if there was an im- mediate appeal to the ;eople. Hundreds of re- formers are declaring *%li over that they will up- hold Sir John Macdonald in entorcing the law. The Word's correspondence and conversations about the streets confirm this to a certainty.”
And again .—
“A party organ that knows no higher art than the construction of a policy out of the bones of slaughtered volunteers and executed criminals must in the Jong run prove more dangerous to its friends than to its enemies.”
The Toronto Week which, under ils preseut management, is uofriendly to the (government, emphatica'ly endorses the Government’s course iu the Riel matter, asserting that the arm of justice would have been paralyzed by a commutation of the punishment.
Tho New York Evening Post says:
“The efforts of our esteemed contemporary, the Herald, tosave Riel, have proved abortive, for he was hanged this morning. It's last resource, an examination @f some of the books ‘on the sub- ject of treason and rebellion’ in the British Museum Library, by its London correspondent, was no more successiul than ifs numerous edi- torial articles or the threats of the French sym-
pathizers in Canada. The Canadian Premier must be an iron man to read the Hera/d through

or in other words, letting loose bands of savages on defenceless froutier settlements. They com- mitted one dreadful massacre at Frog Lake, and, under his leadership, engaged in three or four fights with the troops. The general result was that on the Govern nent side 67 men were killed aud 119 wounded. ‘The killed were mostly young business men who were serving in the militia, If a man ought ever to be hanged for taking other men’s lives and making their homes desolate, Riel certainly deserved his fate.”
Phe Scottish American Jrurnal says:
“A man does not need to have a very good memory to reca'] the fact that the New York fierald did its best to precipitate the Southern rebeliion, and bring on the civil war. Perhaps it had aright to do this; but when it aims te organize rebellions in Canada, a country quite as well governed as any nation in the world, it is guilty of an impertinence, the malevoience of which is only in partexcused by its extreme silli- ness,”
The Regina Leader says:—
““No language could be too strong to paint the enormity of Riel’s offence against society. But the Government had not only to consider his sen- tence in a punitive light, they had to pay some regard to the populations amongst which he had not only followers but dupes ; they had to take some thought for the fature. We know the misery he has introduced into the homes of hun- dreds of haif-breeds. We know that our popula- tion is still heterogeneous. ‘The comparison made between the reveilion of the Seuth in the American republic is, like most such compe risons, a futility. There is no analogy. We have a sacred duty tothe Indian. We owe wise and suitable government to the half-breeds, The truest mercy to both istoshow them unmistake- ably, and if necessary, sternly, that no man can attempt to destroy the authority of the Govern- ment of this country inany part of it, unless at the peril of his life,”
—— © Si oie Possible Presidential Changes. The death of Vice-President Hendricks
in the first year of his term suggests again the possibility of both the offices of President and Vice-President beeom- ing vacant. The successor to the Vice- Presidency is the Speaker of the Senate, If the President dies the Vice-President fills the office for the balance of the four years. Five Vice Presidents have died in office, and we believe four Presidents, but as yet both have never died in the same term.
Should Cleveland die the speaker of the Senate would succeed him to the Presidency, though not for the balance of the term. He would hold the position untila new President cou!d be elected, which wou!d be in the following Decem- ber, or if death took place within two mouths of that time then on the Decem- ber next following. The longest time ia which the speaker could hold the office of President would therefore be fourteen months before the election which with the three months atter would make seventeen months in all. The shortest time would be five months.
It is supposed that E¢munds of Ver- mout wiil be elected to the the speaker- ship. He held that position under President Garfield, and thus when the President was assassinated he became vice president with Arthur. It has been said that Senator Logan is a candidate for the speakership. His election would bring about a siogalar result, namely, that the defeated cancidate for the vice presidency would become vice president, or eveu president during the term fol- lowing his defeat. Ue would of course only hold a pro tem appointment, but this would prevent him from turning out all the miuisters aod substituting a republi- can cabinet.

Experiments with Sorghum.
The experiments in the application of diffusion and carbonitation to sorghum cane, made at Ottawa, Kap., by the Commissioner of Agriculture, have re- cently been completed. Prof. Wiley, who was in charge of these experiments, says in his preliminary report that the yield of sugar from the cave was more than 99 per cent., only 0.12 of one per cent. being left in the waste waters and exhausted chips. The yield of crude sugar, that is, as it comes from the vacuum pan, went es high as 280 pounds per ton, or, at 12 pounds per gallon, 23-2 gallons per tou, a result fully double that obtaiued by the ordivary methods. The process of carbonilation, the adding ot a large excess of lime to the juice, aud then precipitating it with carbonic acid, was completely successful. The product obtained was lighter in color and more palatable than that of the usual method hitherto practiced, while the saving ia scums is estimated to be at least ten per cent. The difficulties encountered were entirely of a mechani- cal nature, and easily overcome. ———P- > a
Sale of the Great Eastern.
The Great Eastern, the largest steam- ship in the world, was recently sold at public auction in London for £26,200 The career of the rival of Noah’s Ark has been very checkered. Ler con- struction began Muy 1, 1854, aud the work of launching her, which lasted from Nov. 8, 1857, to Jan. 31, 1858, cost alone £60,000, bydraulte pressure being employed.
