PARLIAMENTARY CORRESPONDENCE OF “THE BXAMTTER”

Orrawa, Mirch 15th, 1879.

The debate on the Leteiligr matter occu- pied the time of Parliament for three days, ending this morning at half-past four, when Mr. Mossean’s resolution was put and car- ried by a majority of 85. The Finance Minister had announced his intention of delivering the Budget Sneech at four o'clock this afternoon, and was not in his place when the vote on Mr. Mosseau’s reso- tution occurred. There were a few mem- bers who had pared off. The overwhelm- ing majority rather stunned the Opposi- tion, who had, by every possible means, tried to prevent a vote being taken upon the resolution. They occupied the time of the House, needlessly repeating their argu- ments and endeavoring, by unmanly and childish’ pretences, to delay the vote till after the tariff question shonld be dis- cussed. The Government were determined to press the tnatter to a vote, and vindieate responsible government.

Mr. Mosseau opened the debate with a four hours’ speech. He speke in French, and was cheered frequently by those who understoad the language. At the close of his speech, Mr. Quimet moved the previous question, quoting precedents for his action.

The

LRADER OF THE OPPOSITION became, enraged, hastily rose from his seat, and indignantly characterized the action of the Government as cowardly, in taking from the Opposition a chance of proposing an amendment to the resolution of Mr. Mosseau. le was evidently outwitted, and conld not conceal his chagrin. The object of Mr. Quimet in proposing the pre- vious question was to bring Parliament to a direct vote on the conduct of Mr. Letel- lier. The Opposition were ready with their awendment, but undoubtedly would have tried to bring in side-issues to aid the Rouges in the coming elections in Quebec. The indignant ‘remarks, tho wild gesticula- tions, the injury done to the freedom of members of Parliament, in the opinion of Mr. McF azie’s followers, showed how fully theix uttle game was foiled.

DALTON M CARTHY quietly rose to speak after the ill temper and wrath of the members of the Upposi- tion had somewhat effervesed. He dealt with the question of Governor Letellier’s dismissal of his Ministers from a constitu- tional point of view. Mr. MeOarthy isa

‘young looking man, rather spare in appear-

ance. His style of speaking Is quiet and ar- gumentative; he uses no unnecessary words; but every one is carefully weighed and full of meaning. ‘ine most effective speak- ers in the House are those who speak slow- ly and deliberately. Oratorical flourishes unless accompanied witha good voice anda good address, fail to-secure the attention of the members. Mr. McCarthy’s presenta- tion of the case most surely enlightened those who had not been acquainted with the matter previously. His argaments were clear, well put, and convincing. At the close of his able speech

MR. MACKENZIE

tide before the House. He said, instaad of ‘listening to members of the Administration, , the House were compelled to hear the mem- bers on the back benches deal with a ques- tion -which, if brought into Parliament, should be first introduced by the Ministry. | Those who have listened to Mr. McKenzie’s |picuic speeches on both sides of politics, give him the credit of being a good speaker. | No doubt -on all occasions he spoke well when his speeches were carefully prepared. But the idea respecting his claims te efiec- itive speaking would be dispelled by listen- ‘ing to his imprompin utterances. ~ He leither wilfully avoids touching the sub- ject under discussion of lacks the ability te argue clearly and conclusively. Ue avoided the .real point at issne im his speech on the Letellier question, and roundly abused Dalton McCarthy. He found fault with his style of delivery, his language, his legal knowledge, and acquitted — himself in the style of a good stump orator addres- singa motely crowd. The readers of the Patriot were treated a few weeks ago ‘to a homily upon Mr. Brecken’s style of speak ing, and his first effort in the Dominion Parliament. There is one thing ~certain that that gentleman has nothing to learn in the manner of addressing the House from the bean-ideal of the Patriot. The Hon. Mr. McKenzie is equal to any man on the floor of the House fer making asser- tions, but lacks the essential gift of proving his utterances. The efiectiveness of Dalton McCarthy’s and Dr. Tupper’s speeches lies in the manner in which they are always backed up by proof. Mr, McKenzie often makes a statement. without inquiring

and for these loose statements he is_ often brought to task by his opponents. .. The want of arguement to prove his renjarks compels himto deny point-blank thathe had used such language as had been attributed to him.

MR. THOMAS WHITE

followed the Leader of the Opposition, and produced abundanct evidence to prove that the Federal Parliament had a right to deal with the question now before the House. Mr. White was complimented by the Hon. Mr. Langevin, who said _ his speech was one worthy of the House of Commons in England,

MR. HUNTINGTON

delivered his phillipies against the Govern- ment in his usual style. His voice is good —one of the bestin the House. He isa fluent speaker, and speaks correctly when delivering a set speech; but is not consid- ered a good debater, because he lacks the argumentative quality so necessary in de- bate. Although his speech was so strongly in favor of the despotic action of Mr. Let- ellier, yet it was one of the best delivered upon the question. MR. LAURIER, in his speech addressed himself entirely to the patriotic sentiments of his fellow-eoun- trymen, and endeavored to impress upon Parliament the idea that the Federal Goy- ernment was interfering with the rights of Provincial Governments when it undertook to condein the Governor of Quebec. The peroration of his speech was tine, and. was listened to with marked attention by ihe people in the galleries and the members. The HON. HECTOR LANGEVIN

spoiled the effect of Mr. Laurier’s oratory by a few well chosen remarks, showing the despotic, high-handed and unconstitutional action of Mr. Letellier. Mr. Laurier -had alluded to the British fiag and the attach- ment of French Canadians to British insti- tutions, and that if they now found -the Governor of the Province in whieh they principally lived was subject to the con- demnation of the Dominion Parliament, their faith in those free institutions would be shaken. Mr. Langevin retorted by ‘say - ing that French Canadians. were loyal sub- jects, but the. method taken by Governor Letellier of dismissing the people’s repre- sentatives from oftice upon the most flimsy reasons was calculated to undermine ‘the foundation upon which the freedom of the people rested. MR. BRECKEN

spoke upon this question, and showed clearly the effects of Mr. Letellier’s action upon responsible government. His speech was listened to with attention. The hour being late, Mr. Brecken did not exfend his remarks to any great length. it was not his intention to speak in the first instance, but any lover of responsible government could not remain silent while efforts were being made to defend its overthrow. The best speech of the debate upon the Letellier question was that made by

MR. COSTIGAN.

Although members had become wearied by long sitting and by long speeches, yet the speech of Mr. Costigan in reply to Mr. Anglin} acted like a stimulant upon the | drowsiness of the members. Almost every sentehce was cheered. Andas Mr. Costi- gan. quoted sentence after sentence from Mr. Anglin’s writings against himself, the excitement became intense. Men who had satin Parliament for years said.that in its way Mr. Costigan’s speech was the most crushing rejoinder to which they had lis- tened in that House. He is not a fluent speaker, but seems to search after the most effective language, which he utters with coolness and deliberation. It is said that Mr. Anglin, who has become rich through his support of the late Government, is en- deavoring to crush out Mr. Costigan, .who is considered an upright and honest.man, but not very Wealthy. Mr. Costigan’s in- fluence, although a poor man, excites the
