dd - Monpay, March 18. Nis. Sutherland gesumed the debate on theiDrait Address, .He spoke in defence of the six gentiemen who represent Prince Hdward [sland in the House of Commons,
a that the wharves, which are not of Béderal importance, still belong to the P ce, and said that the farmers of the
Pré¥ince should not suffer on account of a roW betweeu the Dominion and Federal Governments. He contended that the amomnts received from the Dominion Gov- e nt on account of the amounts expend- cae the Province in the construction and maintenance of wharves, were in full settle- ment of the Provincial claims, and reviewed and criticised the Address,
Hen. Mr. Prowse said that he did not intend to reply to Mr. Sutherland at Jength; for, in the ‘irst place, he was not
. gentleman’s speech was one of th@” most disconnected and the weakest effort he had ever heard in the Legisla-
tute. There was little remarkable in it bat its dishonesty. Mr. Prowse then poutted out, from the British North
America Act, as well as by reference to the Holman-Green case, that all the foreshores and wharves were under the control of the Dominion Government, and showed that the Provincial Government had never given a receipt in full on account of the amount due for the money expended on the wharve>.
Mr. Wise thought that the disposition of stock proposed by Mr. Uuderhay was not practicable.
Mr. Bell criticised the Address. He considered the paragraph about exhibitions somewhat mysterious, and thought that the Government should give every attention to providing the necessary accommodation for the patients in the Huspital for the Insane. He réfexred, also, to the consolidation of the statutes and the piers question.
Hom Mr. Sullivan again explained the matterwf the taking over of the piers by the Dominion Government, who were re-
sponsible fur their.maintenance. Mf. Beil spoke briefly in reply.

(in the building which can be utilized ; but ‘in order that this may be done, a good deal
of money will have to be expended. It is proposed to curtail the apartments of the Medical Superintendent, and add to the number of rooms for patients.
Mr. Sinclair criticised the consolidation

or the work would have been done ere this. Why does the Government permit such de- day ?
Mr. Sullivan explained the matter at length, and said that the laws,as consolidat-

Mr. Sinclair agreed as’ to printing the for the use of members of the Legis-
to submit to the House.
Mr. Sullivan said that the laws to be consolidated extend over a century, and the task of the Commissioners is a very arduous one. In Ontagje the work of con- solidation occupied sevefi commissioners for five years.
Mr. easker resume@fhe chair and the | address was reported agreed to without any amendment. It was then agreed to by the House.
The House then went into committee on the bill entitled an Act to amend the Dis- tress Act, Mr. Sullivan explaining that it was necessary as a consequence of the in- advertant omission of several words from the Act passed last year. The bill was re- ported agreed to.

The Concert Last Night.
Gne ofthe largest audienns we herve seen in the Lyceum for some time, attenc- ed the Benvolent Irish Society’s concert Jast evening. The programme was well rendered, almost every number being rap- turously encored. The singing of Mrs. James , Byrne and Miss Stramberg was splendid, that of the first-mentioned laty being par- |ticularly good. Mr. L. J. Williams’ songs |were, as all his songs are, well sung, and Mr. Tanton excelled himself. Mr. A. J. ‘MacDougall has a rich voice, and knows how to use it, but his comic songs could be ‘made more acceptable by a little more action. Mrs. A. J. Quirk was unable to sing, owing to illness, and her place was
1
ttaken by Mr. Williams, who sung * The
Last Rose of Summer,” with cornet and pianoaccompaniment,in finestyle. Thequar- tette singingof Messrs. McDougall, Tanton, McNally and Foster, was good, as was also the chorus of St. Danstan’s Glee Club. The instrumental portion of the perform- ance was capital. The violin duet by Mrs. Dixon and Miss Macdonald was well play-
} s : 4 very well, and in the second place the \® #8 Was also the piano solo by the first-
named lady. Miss Benoit’s harp playing was very artistic. Master James Sees violin solo showed that this youthful per- former is fast becoming an expert on the ‘* king of instruments.” Mr. Fletcher's cornet solo, and the piano duet by Messrs. Tanton and Foster were also pleasing The accompanyists were Miss Hyndman and Mrs. Williams, and Messrs. Tanton and Foster. Mr. Tanton was the Director. The performance closed with **God Save the Queen.” -We have not heard the amount realized, but it must have been large.
LETTERS TO THE EDITOR.
The Fishery “Bounty.
WHAT DOES HE WANT}
Sir,—Dr. Meclntyre, it will be seen by late papers, is again talking about the fish- ery bounty. Only a few days ago he told the House, through Mr. Davies, that is, if Mr. Davies is to be believed, that the bounty was of no service to the fishermen. Finding, no doubt. that opposition to the fishery bounty would not take in the coun- try, he abandons that course and tells the House that now he is convinced that some of his friends have been refused the bounty. because of their politics. Why, it was only the other day that he stood up in the House and told the Government that there were men in his County receiving the
wniy. who were not entitled to..it.. He, was thus the first to tell the Government that some of the claims of the fishermen of his County were bogus, and should not be entertained. If the Government, therefore, has been 2 little inclined ever since to question the genuineness of soine of the claims from King’s County, the fishermen have only Dr. McIntyre to blame for hav- ing lodged the information against them.
In his latest utterances on the Bounty question, it is quite evident that he is _ try- ing to make a little political capital out of it for himself. It is almost needless to say that his statement that men have been de- prived of their bounty on account of their politics, is false. If, instead of finding fault in an evasive and insinuating way with the present mode of distributing the bounty, he had pointed out a more equitable and better way, the fishermen might have felt a littie more kindly towards him than they do. As it is, they know that his chief aim is to keep himself in Parliament, and
that if he and his party only had the power, | away with the Bounty,
they would do altogether.
Allow me to say, in concluding, that ) there are other subjects besides the bounty to which our two Dominion representatives might direct their attention. In circulars, signed by them both and lavishly distribut- ed throughout the county at the last elec- tion, they told the electors that if they wanted the subway built and to have the privilege of selling ‘‘ fish, potatoes, horses, cattle and sheep free of duty to the United States, to vote for P. A. McIntyre and James E. Robertson.” How have these great promises been carried out? Not a word now from them about the subway or free trade. Oh, no, they are waiting till next election to talk about these tbings. But they will have a hard road to travel next time.

The place was completely wrecked. Of 65 employes five were killed and eleven injured, a number quite seriously. One will die. It is feared that many moro are buried in the debris.

Lockep THE Casurer In.—On Saturday week, Mr. F. L. Smith, cashier of the Nor- wood Bank, Watertown, N. Y., was alone
in the building about noon, when Charles *
Phelps, the post-office clerk, entered and asked foursome stamps. Mr. Smith stepped into the vault to get them, when Phelps quickly closed the door and turned the combination, loeking the cashier in. The robber then turned to the money drawer and took all the paper money that it con- tained, $278, leaving several hundred dol- lars in silver. Phelphs had a horse ready, and with it he started for the Canadian border. Meanwhile a customer entered the bank, heard the cashier calling to him from the vault, and being instructed as to the combination, released him. Phelps was captured on the midnight train and deliver- ed to the officers. Phelps had fallen into bad habits of late, and is said to have be-
come an opium-eater.
