premier’s written promise was spoken of at this time, and I understood the premier intended to destroy it. Io and insisted that they must and Mr. Far were No left with Mr. Newbery. What 1? Al though I had not het est opinion of Mr. Farquharson i never doubted that a promise |ing from anyone whe had the least pretensions to honor and truth , would be observed. A few days after the 3rd of March, about a week, my resignatien was sent tothe Speaker, Mr. Cum- miskey, and the Premier's written promise was taken by him from Mr. Newbery,and he now holds it from the light of day, when it does not belong to him—a reproach to him for his ‘broken faith and unkept word. Mr. promptly notified the Lieutenant Governer, and the latter about the 12th of March last, ordered a writ for the election to be issued, and this order was promptly received at the | Prop er office and awrit was duly wage e out leaving certain blanks | to be filled up; and trom that day to this, although two months have elapsed, | nothing further has been done. Who is responsible for this outrageous and flagrant violation of law? Itis quite clear what the law requires, outside of any demands of honor and geod faith arising out of the agreement made with me. The election law has been openly and contemptously violated,and that by | the premier; for in the absence any ex- planation he mustaccept the responsi- | bility. A violatien of a statute is a criminal offence and punishable as

such. Why are not the criminals punishec ? The leader of the gov- ernment can stamp the laws under
his feet, and act as if they never had any existence, and there is not enough of manhood among his_ supporters to call him to an account.
When I found that no election would be held before the meeting of the Legislature, and that a whole consti- tuency “would remain unrepresented by arbitrary conduct of the premier while the House would be in session transact- ing the business of the country, and feeling that I had been deceived and tricked by as unprincipled an act as ever disgraced a public man, I determin- ed to take my seat the first day of the session. My resignation was procur ed by unblushing fraud on the part of |Mr. Farquharson, tor purposes base ' and dishonorable; and when | lered that fraud, I at ence repudiated the act which the fraud procured. | made no secret of my intention to ‘take my seat, and Mr. Farquharson and his followers knew it well.

at the last moment, their courage fail- | ed them, and recoiling from their un- | worthy purpese they adjourned the House without doing anything. | Something, however, had to be ‘done. Some one opposed to them | had to go if they were to keep their | offices and feed any longer at the pub- | blic crib. It mattered little who; but | as I was the victim of the Premier’s ‘fraud and deception, there appeared | les s risk in forcibly ejecting me than sxyone else And solam told they rether in caucus and harangued harangued each other, and deter-
