‘* Vox Populi” Again.

To the Editor of the Examiner.

Deak Sir,—Believing that my insertion of 15th instant has neither been creditably met, nor fairly answered, I ask that you oblige by allowing me to take up the points contested, which | shall do in order, per- mitting those assertions which are totally uncalled for, and aside of the subject to come in last.

The whole of ‘* V. D. N. O's.” moraliz- ing over ‘*‘ vice’? goes for naught, as I did not use the term ‘* vices of position,’ but vices of Ais position, when referring to the Prince of Wales. Still I hold that ‘ posi- tion” has much to do with indulgence in vice; and that propensities in rich and poor being equal, the former has the advan- tage, if | may so express it. The rich man can afford to steep himself in liquor, even to the obliteration of his God-given senses —who can hinder. He can afford to main- tain a harem—to whom he is responsible. A nobleman in England applied for a divorce from his wife, upon said wife’s acknowledgments, backed up by letters (published) and other evidence, usual in such cases—Prince of Wales defendant. Petition not granted. A second application, substitute of lower position defendant. Divorce accomplished.

‘* Jolly good fellows” is a phrase used amongst the aristocracy to denote one partial to good living, alias eating and drinking.

‘“The Stuart Monarchs” I never asserted that those hapless individuals died ‘‘hy the wil! of the people.” What I did say was to the effect that they courted their fate by ignoring ‘* public opinion ig or, in other words, by walking over the will of the peo- ple. King Charles utterly ignored ‘‘public opinion,” and marred his kingly dignity by condescending to excessive meanness, as illustrated in the case of the Earl of Stafford. Mary Queen of Scots is with one party a martyr, with another —language can scarcely portray what she is regarded to have been. With unbiassed judgment, and in calm retrospection, I am beund to admit that the ‘‘faults?” of Queen Mary were very grave faults indeed; and, through the coinmittal of these, it is easy to trace her steps onward to the scaffold. She offended public opin- ion by persisting in an ostentatious display of her religion; by profaning the Sabbath day (a heinovs crime under the strict re- formed code) and, worst of all her faults, by consenting to live in adultery with Both- well, the murderer of her husband Darnley, who, having deserted his wife for this pur- pose, brought upon himself and his rae in guilt, the undying hatred of a poser class, and the utter contempt vt the peop .

The same paper adds :—‘ The} winter throughout the whole of the North-} western States and territories has been excep- | tionally severe this year, but from accounts | received Manitoba and the Canadian North- | west have suffered less in that respect than | their more southern neighbors, no serious | bleckade of trains on the Canadian Pacific | having occurred.”

The parents of the child did not think it necessary to call in a physician, and after giving her a heavy dose of rhubarb put! the sick girl to bed. The child grew rapidly worse, and on Monday morning her condition | was so serious that a physician was called in. | He could do nothing to r lieve the child who continued to grow rapidly worse and last night died in great agony. The doctor was of | opinion that death was due to the excessive | dose of rhubarb which had been given to the. child, but did not think an inquest would be |

necessary.
