of 1883, where the sections olf examination of
beiug together, make the intent of the
regulating the
Legislature very apparent, aud show the
i tended.
fallacy of the reasoning we referred to. |
Sections 139 and 140 of that Act read as follows:
139. Every person other than the de- fenda summoned or as a Witness in any prosecution brought under this Act. is bound to all
tions put to him, and which are pertinent
examined
answer ques-
to the issue, notwithstanding that his auswers may disclose facts tending to
subject him to any penalty imposed by this Aet: but such evidence shall not be used against him in apy prosecution.
140. Ov the trial of any information or complaint under the provisions of this Act, the person charged, or husband of such person, shall be competent and com- pellable to give evidence as a witness in the said matter
These sections surely cannot be inter- preted to mean other than that the ‘ness is protected, aod that the person charged (or the defendant) is not. should rather enjoy the solemn judgment of a Coort which, under these sections, held that defendant was eXam- inable as a witness; bat as_ his privilege is not expressly taken away, the ; him could not be used against him iu the prosecation then pending. ‘The usefuluess of exam- iuing him would, under such a judgment, be very apparest, and the wisdom of the Legislature in passing such an enactment Yet why should the fact of two similar sectious in the Seott Act, bying some inches further apart, the one judgment more sensible

case, Compelling the defendant to give evidence, and then indemnifying him from any unfortunate results the moment it falls from his lips, a fit stereoscopic counterpart to the other, wherein this same august body is presented, ordering a similar delinquent to give evidence, but simultaneously closing his mouth with the legal gag. “Nemo tenetur se ipsum accusare.”” We wish to preserve no copyright in oar suggested picture. We rather suggest it as a frontispiece for the Judges edition of the Liquor License Act of 1883.
Now to the second point. We say that the object of the Act is plain—if the words can be considered doubtful—it is to examine the defendant ; and by the true rule of legal coustruction that mean- ing which best suits the scope and object of the Statute aud promotes its:real in- tention, must be given. It is not the duty of the court to find reasons for not interpreting an enactment, as including ail its logical consequences _ strictly, thongh may be only implicitly resulting therefrom. It is just the reverse, it is to give effect to every word and implica- tion in @ statute, no matter what the consequences may be. Shall we make ourselves plain by a quotation made in point trom Maxwell on Statute Law, (of the highest legal authority) :—‘: The Baukrupt Acts in requiring a bankrupt to answer self-criminating questions rela- tive to his trade and affairs, made his answers subject to the general rules of the law of evidence, and consequeptly admissible in evidence against him even ia criminal proceedings- ‘To hold other- wise would have been in effect to suppose that the Legislature in expressly changing the law which had hitherto protected him Jrom answermg, intended also. to make the further change by mere implication, aud suspending pro tanto the ordinary rule as regards the admissibility of self- prejadiciag statements.”
What does this mean? simply that the law said to every bankrupt you must in your bankruptcy proceedings answer avy question, whether criminating or other wise, nothing more. Yet because this enactment expressly changed the law which had hitherto protected him from answering, his answers are here held admissible in evidence against him iu a crimimal prosecution. They are not made expressly so, anymore than the words in the 123rd section do net ex- pressly say he must criminate himself.
We wonder in the mind of that writer what place would have been assigned to the arguments against such an ivterpre- tation of the Bankrupt Act (supported by judicial decisious not to be con- venieutly quoted here) suggested in the judgment under review as “founded on the known infirmities of human nature too weak to be restrained by the religious and moral obligations of an oath when tempted and solicited in a contrary direction, by temporal interest, or the desire to escape preseat punishment, etc.” The poor baakrupt was sadly tempted to lie—first, to get clear of his debts; second, to get clear of a criminal prose- The Legislature which could subject him to such a fearfal trial surely deserved not only to have their enact- meuts set aside. but themselves to be wiped out of existence. But, alas! the Hoglish Courts of Law interpreted the statute as it read, without comment on the felonious possibilities ot the fraudu- leut bankrupt.
Apart from protesting against the crude and immoral doctrine hat rascal- dom is to be protected from punishment, for fear rascaldom should be
cution.

Belfast to the Front with the Grits in the Rear.
Tue Patriot has an article headed * Belfast to the Front,” which is a good illustration of whistling to keep up ones courage. With much reluctance and hesitation the Grit party have settled down on Mr.Duncan McMillan. Over two weeks ago, Messrs. John F. Robertson and Roderick Munn made a pilgrimage to Belfast, and selected Mr. McMillan ; and that gentleman was understood by the public to be in the field. Tae Ex- AMINER, in fulfilmeat of its duty to the public as a newspaper, announced Mr. | MeMillan’s candidature; but the Pctriot said ‘‘never a word.” The cooler heads among the Grit managers knew that Mr. MeMiillan could vot carry the District, and they waited in the hope that a split might occur in the Conservative rauks, or that a sectional feeling might be iu- 1 in favor of the Grit cause, and Mr. McMillan was permitted to wait for nearly ten days without seeing his name mentioned in the Patriot. The agony is

Tue Patriot is very avxious to know if the Government policy is to abolish the Priace of Wales College, and thinks the electors of Belfast should be advised on this point before the election. It would be well also to know what the policy of the Opposition is with regard to the College... For. some years that institution aud its professors have been attacked in the coarsest manner possible by members of ths Opposition io the House of Assembly, The defence of the College de\oivcd on the Hon. Mr. Fer- gusop, aud other members of the Gov- eroment, We hope the Government will be able to make the College still more useful in the future than it has been in the past. Our correspondents appear to have helped the College materi- ally, A few strictures on College mat- ters by correspondents of Tur EXAMINER is suflicient to convert the Grits from being coarse assailants into warm admir- ers acd defenders of the College and its professors

Address to M. J. Fitzgerald, Esq.
We publish to-day the address presented to M. J. Fitzzerald, Esq., the deservedly popular Manager of the Branch of the Bank of Nova Seotia at Montague, It was intended to have been presented to him in the Hall which he so inaterially assisted in ervcting, but his illness prevented this.
