HE PROWSE-LAWSON LETTER,
(Published by Request.)
[Private d& Confidential. ]
Rey. S. G, Lawson:
Dear Sim:—I am in receipt of your ‘vour of 6th inst., and have given its con- its ny most serious consideration.
Since my conversation with you [have d very frank but lriendly converse with W. DeBlois and W. D. ot-wort, in refereuce to the unnatural strife going on between the Free School Journals and also in regard to the distribution of the public printing, and I cannot but admit one important feature of this trouble; namely, that while there appears to be a good friendly tone between the Argus, Journal and Patriot the Presbyterian has for some time past continued to attack them and they write against the Presbyterian, while they all support the Government and de- tend it against the scurrilous attacks of the Herald and the other opposition papers, the Presbyterian does not give the Govern, ment that support and defence which your friends would like to see, and while this state of affairs continues, your friends can- not enforce your claims to the same extent as they otherwise could. [t is very appar ent to every one that if the old party lines are to be kept up between Liberals and Conservatives ( Protestants) in our local Pols ‘vies, then the Free School principles will not nor cannot be carried out, for neither party is ever likely to be able to carry on the Government against the other party aided by the Roman Catholics, believing this, my duty is plain, namely, to do my utmost to make the union lately effected as strong and lasting as possible, and to this end to do away with old party feeling and names &3 much as possible, while at the same time to do all I can to prevent any and every one being oppressed or neglect- ed on account of their former Politica: Creed. From what I can learn the present Government is very popular among Protes~
ante of every name throzghout the country, and lonly regret that those papers which were very largely instrumental in effecting the union are not to-day more friendiy and united in consolidating the party— for if this mew party is now fairly repre- sented by the Free School press then it is evident that the Free-School Party which only a few months ago were so strong
and united—is simply now a “House di- vided against itself,’ and we know the consequence—there appears to bea real healthy and good understanding between ali the members of the Government; and,
ofarasTcan learn, among the members
f our party in the Legislature, and if dis- ‘flection and ill feeling is encouraged by the press to the overthrow of the Governs
vent, then on those who control the press
uu t rest the responsibility.
Now, to effect a better understanding be- ‘ween yourself and the other publishers of ‘ar party, and with W, D, Stewart in par ‘cular, Lam happy to inform you that |
m authorized to tell you that my conver-
‘tion With Mr. S. was particularly satis- “vetory, and he is quite willing to meat you
nlf way towards a complete and perma.
nt reconciliation ; he appears much nore ine!ined towards a better and more
‘iendly understanding with you than | at ail expected, and I have every hope that .ou will be able to see your way clear to meet Mr. S, in that spint which wiil en..
ure this desirable result, and I trust this
::n be elected without either of you being ‘-ked todo or say anything inconsistent with your positions and self-respect.
And while you may feel it to be your {uty to oppose the Dominion Government in future as in the past I believe it can be ione much more effectually by a dignified ind logical style than by imputing the low- est motives to other journals for not seeing eye to eye with us.
1 feel confident that if the course herein suggested is approved and adopted by the Presbyterian, its influence will be very ma- terially improved and its cireulation in creased, Your friends will then have no aeed to press your claims to @ share of the public printing, it wiil be fairly and freely given by every member of the Government.
In regard to the subject matter of your letter of the 6th inst., 1 am free to say | consider your victory over your opponent, Campbell, most complete, and I have no doubt he feels it keenly —at the same time [cannot agree with you i: thinking it is such a case as would justify the Govern. ment in taking up, neither d) I think the country generally would endorse such tyrannical conduct as no doubt it would be called by your opponents—it would make Norman Campbell a martyr it is true, but he would also havea martyr’s sympathy, principally at your expense. and I reaily think his dismi-stf from office just now would have quite a contrary eff ct to what you intimate. lam quite satisfied no mem- ber of the Government approves of his late attack upon you, and further, so far from Mr. S. having had any hand in the matter or being mixed up in it in any way, he condemns it as much asI do, saying, “it must be put a stop to,”
Possibly you will, when reading this hurs ried letter, fe-l disapointed, but on reflec - tion I trust you will see the reasonableness ot the course I suggest; my “motive is simply the best interests of all comeerned and the Peace, good Goverament and pros- 'perily of the country, bat whether prac- ‘ticable or not remains to be seen—at all 'events my duty so far is done. [am not anxious nor willing to retain my seat in the | Government nor in the House one moment | longer than i» necessary for the best inter-
ests of the country when I can sve that my work is done, I shall cheerfully retire, and | when I do, hope to do so with a cler con- ‘science,
I now leave the matter to your careful consideration, hoping, if you consider it possible for a reconciliation to take place, you will drop mea line and suggest or in- itiate to me means to bring it about.
{ remain, yours respectfully, SAMUEL Prowssg, Murray Ifarbor, Jan, 10, 1877.

BEEF.
There is great complaint mide in New
York that the export of beef to England has had the unpleasant conseqence, not only of advancing prices of choice beef in the New York market, but of making the choice article very scarce, This, however, will cure itself in time, though we have not beard ofany such result having cccur- red in Canada. [ke every other saleable article of produce. beef will be attracted to where it commands the best prices, whe- ther at home or abroad.
DISSATISFACTION WITH GORTS- CHAKOFF’S LET/ER.
The Times Vienna correspondent Says Prihce Gortschahoft’s letter has been offix cially communicated to the other Cabinets. It seems, it has not given such complete
satisfaction as was expected. The wording on the points relative to Constantinople and the Dardanelles have not been found juite s» clear,nd precise as to exclude an ambiguous rendering and to set at rest any doubts such as may have prompted the British Government to draw up the well known category stated by Mr, Cross, [1 seems to have struck the British Govern ment that though Russia asservates she does not covet the possession of Constanti- nople, still no assurance is given that that city will not eventually be drawn into range of military operations and consequently at any rate be temporarily occupied by the Russians. The essence of the question is thus left unanswered, for whether Russia does or does not covet Constantinope it seems comparatively immaterial. The im; portant thing for the localization of war is that Russia should not seize it. The assurance that the Pardanelles must always be regulated by international agreement also does not touch the real is. sue which the British Government seems to have in view,—namely, the convention closing the Straits to all foreign men-of. war, a nullification of which Russia may well be assumed toaim xt. It.seems also that the assurances that Russia has no in- tention to monopolize the settlement of the Eastern question are deemed more vague than they might have been, as they do not state whether the Powers will ba consulted before or after the settlement. Other points in the Prince's letter are not deemed quite satisfactory by the British Government ani may possibly give rise to further exchange of ideis between it and Russia,

ENGLISH GRAIN TRADE LAST WEER,
A leading Liverpool grain circular of
Friday reviews the trade of the preceding week as follows:—*The wheat markets were fgenerally steady this week. There were limited deliveries from growers. An improvement of Is per quarter is noted in some cases: Foreign is little altered, though cargoes off the coast move slowly, and there is some addition to arrivale, making altogether 21 ships for sale. For prompt shipment. with little inquiry Cali- fornian was offered rather cheaper. There was a moderate bnsiness on the spot. Foreign wheat since Tuesday has been uns changed. Mzize has sold in buyers’ favor
This market to-day was tq'nly attended. and transactions in wheat were correspond- ingly limited, sellers beyond retail quantity making ia some instances a concession of Id per cental on white, Reds are 2d lower than on Tuesday. Flour was dull and un. changed. Corn was in small request, with only a moderate quantity offering. The rate of last week were nearly miiutained.”’

We learn froma gentleman of mining
experience, who is lately from the island,
that work is being pushed very actively in
the copper mines of Notre Dame bay. Mr.
Ellershausen employs now 600 men at the
Betts Cove mine, and expects betore sum-
mer is over to have 1,109 atwork. The
yield continues to be sxtisfactory. At the Tilt Cove mine about 20) men are employ.
ed; the ore turned out is of a high quality and there is abundance of it. The product of both these mines goes to Swansea, at a cost, for ocean freight, of 233. per ton.
The Lamanche mine, on Placentia Bay, in the southern part of the island, continues to be a good property and the Port-au- Port lead location of Messrs Bennett & Mackay, on the west coast. is found to yield well. A British company has just purchased and is about to work a property on Bay of Islands, in the Port-au-Port dis- trict, containing white and pink marbles of very handsome appearance, — Monefary ' Times.

The Montreal Gazetle of last Friday, in its financial article, referring to the condi- tion of the money market aud transactions at Bank meetings, says:—“ In foreca ting the future, but one Opinion was expressed at all the meetings—that everything ce. pends upon the extent of the crop reaped this summer. The lumber trade my, possibly. change for the better before the year is out, but this is a contingency not to be relied upon, As yet it cannot be said that the crops have received setious injury in any part of the Provinces, although rain is sorely needed in Quebec and Eastern Onturio. In the western peninsula, how. ever, the crop prospects are unusually bril- liant and give rise to the most sanguine anticipations. If the country is blessect
with @ bountiful harvest, there is no doubt ot an improvement in business, and we
mty look forward to this consummation, _uniess some disaster overtakes the cro 5 before autumn,”’
