A GENTLEMAN writing from Wiaaipeg to a friend im this town, says the Bridgetown Monitor, spexsing of the Halifax battalion, says that ‘‘it is conceded by all that the Halifax battalion is the finest body of men that has yet gone west. The fighting men say if the battalion gets into a fight the men will @7¢ a gool sccount of themselves. It is a god thing they have so many men from the regular srmy, as they will help to steady the youngsters, who always want to doall the aighting, as with the poor 90th.”

A MosT extraordinary robbery took place on Thursday aftorncon (14th inst.) or that night, in the office of the Pulice Account- autin the City Hall, Montreal It appears that Mr. Daiez, the Chief Accountant, Went into his office on Thursday, which was a holiday, and while pulling out a bunch of keys let the key of the safe inadvertently fail. On entering the office the following Morning the window was found open and the safe rifled of $1,800, of which $600 Were in checks. No clue to the perpetrator a8 been discoverod.

The secret of Gen. Komaroff's dislike to Eugland, says an exchange, is now ex- plained. It appears that his grandmother wa au lrishwoman named McNamara. That accounts fer everything. Most likely his predecessor, Sk beleff, who was a thor- ough hater of England, had some of the “me “drop” in him Old Crimean vet- rans used to say, when they got sight of Todieben, at the close of the war, that he looked like » Connaught man; and as for Vou Moltke, who is by birth a Dane, the fommection between the Mulcahys and the Vikings of old is a matter of history.

The Northwest Rebellion in Parliament.

BLAKE ON THE RAMPAGE,

Orrawa, May 22.

There was a lively time in the House of Commons last night.

Mr. Blake in a two hours speech charged theGovernment with with holding important information regarding the Northwest. He said ‘he Government had all the men,money and advice they needed. Ministers had gone to the Northwest and could find no yrievances, yet we had an Indian war on hand. How had it happened! The Gov- ernment should tell the House and country.

Sir John Moscdonald replisd to Mr, Biake. He said the Leader of the Opposi- tion had, since the commencement of the rebellion, pursued Indian tactics. He fired from rifle pits, as did the rebels, and in- sinuated what he dared not openly state in Parliament. The Government, Sir Jobn said, were ready to meet any direct charge, but they refuzed to bring down information obtained from missionaries or cflicials that would subj+ct them to balf-breed bullet or Indian tomahawk.

Sir Richard Cartwright, foilowing Sir John, made a dashing attack on the Gov- ernmont.

The Standard confirms the view that the main question at issue between Russia and England haugs in possession of Maruchak.

The newspapers are unanimously of opin- ion that the detention of the Guards at Alexandria and the Australian contingent at Aden is on account of the attitude of Russia, and that there are serious obstacles in the way of completing the negotiations for peace.

In the House of Commons, last night, Gladstone said nothing was yet settled in regard to the arbitration.

The Cry for Rest.

Rest, for the night is coming, Rest, for the day is done, Rest, for the flowers are going To sleep, with the setting sun. Rest, for the night is coming, Let all thy labor cease ; During the hours of twilight Let the tired hands have peace.

All through the hours of morning, All through the sun-bright day,

Toil filed the busy moments, Swiftly they passe 1 away.

Gone are the laden minutes Bearing their golden store ;

When the long shadows gather Man’s time for work is o’er.

Rest, for the night is coming ; Silence o’er Nature falls ; Rest, for the time of doing Has passed beyond recall. Rest, brain and body need it ; Each little bird in its nest Tells us, when evening cometh, God means us all to rest. JOHN.
