Sik,—In your jiasue of 3rd April you ask
“a me for an e@Xpianation regarding my travelling expemses. [ comphed with your request ag mildly and as briefly as possible, jnot, [ean assure yon with any intention of j ruffling your temper. Instead, however, of accepting my explanation in the same spirit in which tt was given, because I presume it
temper and accuse me of my King statements |
| which are unfair and misleading. |
trom the books and records of this depart- ; ment, aud one which I defy you to disprove. | The figures therein contained cover all the /@xpenses connected with my department for
| services performed hy my predecessors and
the late engineer, Mr. Builey, and [ stats most positively that | have no carpenter nor
‘other workmen employed at any servic:
previously performed by the late engineer As regards Mr. Charles McGregor I may inform you that he has never been employ ed by me to prepare any specification, nor
|superintend any public work ; neither has
he been paid one dollar for any work form- Mr. Me- Gregor was employed. by the Stock Farm
|e mmissioners, some eight months previ-
ous to the engineer’s death, to prepare plans and specitications of the Stock Farm Build- ings, and superintend their erection. He has been engaged again this spring procur- ing material for the repairs of the Ferry ateamers, and to keep the time of the work- men employed—a service for which some person would be required, even if there was an engineer.
In your issue of the 23rd April, you imagine that you have found some figures for local inspection, which you very dis- honestly attempt to use in order to prove the incorrectness of my statements as to the cost of my Department, and you sneer- ingly allude to me as pluming myself on being incapable of telling a lie All I have to say is that I have been ten years in public life, as a representative of the people, and I have never yet been convicted of stating an untruth, nor have I had to apolozize for making false statements. I regrct that I cannot say as much of tome whom I find that no pcesition, in public or private life, will cure of their constitutional weakness for misrepre- sentation end uniruth. Had you taken the trouble to examine for yourself upon this point, you would have learned that these local inspectors were employed while there was an Enginer, and that they actually cust the country more then, than they have since. I presume, however, that you were in no way anxivus for correct information, and having ad »pted the maxim ‘“Where ignorance is bliss, ’tis folly to be wise,’ your purpose of misrepresen ing the present Government was thus better suited in this case. 1 mistake much, how- ever, if you will not find that your readers are svfiiciently intelligent to judge for themselves in these matters. and that they expect the man who attempts to mould public opinien through the press to be also reasonably intelligent and somewhat ¢on- versant with the subject upon which he writes.
I propose, for the benefit of your readers, to give them a correct statement of the local inspection from the Ist January, 1877, to the close of the year 1882, so that they may judge for themselves how far youare justified in your charges against me, an what reliance can be placed on your state- ments, When you have selfish or party interests to serve :
Local inspection, 1877 - - $2,732 90 se se 1
878 - - 1,684.00 os ‘6 1879 - ee 6s “ 1889 - - 1,423.00 “ os 1881 - - 1,012.00 ee “s 1882 - 945 00
It will be seen by the above figures, that the local inspection is actually less now, than when an Engineer (for whom you think it necessary to tax the people $1,700 a year) was employed, to inspect those works. It has always been the practice to charge these amounts to the particular work for which ay eb — hese figures ave not included, ne charged ina years 1877, 1878 and 187 o, the sums paid for inspecting the Hospita for the Insane, neither have I charged to 188i, that for inspecting the Stock a> Buildings, not considering them propealy chargeable to those years, because | regat them as extraordinary amgepditare, .£ - though the former cost, $5,000, a ose three years, and the latter about $370. In the conclusion of your article of ag bth April,you challenge me to state what Mr. Charles McGregor has received for Inspect- ing works, or for doing work formerly per- formed by the Engineer 1 have se you alrerdy that he has received racing for any such services. 1 claim the right to challenge you, aud am prepared to give ee access to every book, paper and ae in this Department, and | defy you tos “4 that there has been one dollar paid; up - the close of the year 1882, to avy — nD for performing any services formerly = by the Engineer. I again assert that - such services, not one dollar has been sper or any other way,

| been ordered to take ‘* relief ” ; morning between the hours of one aud two
| to do, and those who went off duty at three }4. m. are, until further instructions, to remain on their beats until six o'clock. The cause of the selection of Halifax as the spot for FENIAN ACTION
is evident, owing t» its prominence asa military st.tion, and in several respects the principal British city in America. From what can be learned as to the source of the information which has alarmed the authori- ties, if appears that there was a detective at the recent Lind League con‘erence in Philadelphia, who had instructions to re-
ort anything of importance. It is aflirm- ed that this detective communicated to the Governor-General or to the British Gov- eroment that the day of Brady’s execution (next Monday) was to be THE SIGNAL FOR & COMBINED ATTEMPT AT

whenever and whatever the opportunity might offer.
In an interview with a reporter, Sir Patrick MacDougall, Commander-in-Chief of the British forces in America, stated that the contents of the letter received by Lieut. -Governor Archibald were almost the same as telegraphed last night, but the statement said to be containedin thecommu nication thattwosuspicious vessels had sailed from Boston for Halifax, he denied having been made aware of. He said that a cir- cumstance that occurred a short time ago had led him to order an extra sentry on guard at the large powder magazine in Point Pleasant Park, but further than this there had not yet been any strengthening of the guards there or at other places in the city. The reporter mentioned the fact of torpedoes being believed to be carried by the vessels reterred to, wherevpon Sir Patrick replied that the lining of the harbor with these dangerous explosives mig!t be undertaken +lmost at any time without de- tection. Even now, he said,
THE HARBOR MAY BE FULL OF TORPEDOES
ind we not know it, as the parties might nave already placed them in position with- out beingobserved. On being asked whether suspicious vessels had been observed lurk- ing around the harbor lately, he answered that none had been reported to him. He stated that no special instructions bad been issued to his officers by him r garding th» taking of precautions for the protection of property or life, and that it was not antici- vated that any events would occur to alarm the pub'i-.
Lieut. Adamson, at present in command of H M.S. Tenedos, in the absence from the eity of Commander Fane, was also visited last night, and he, too, denied the report that orders had been issned on his ship for extra lookouts or other precaution- ary measures.
The Halifax papers treat the scare as a joke, and say the Military officers appreciate it, because of its richness
