‘NOTES FROM THE i 2 gemkie

REMARKS ON THE BUDGET,

| It is pretty well known that the Deputy 'Finance Minister has been dangerously ill ‘for some time past, and Sir Leonard Tilley |has been compelled to do office work in- }conjunction with his arduous parliamentary ‘labors. Bat all doubts as to the delivery ‘of the Speech at the appointed time, was ‘set at rest, when Sir Leonard slowly rose and moved the House into Committee of Ways and Means. An item being reported passed, the Finance Minister began his speech. clear at the commencement as it sometimes is, but as he advanced and warmed up on his subject, it was plain that nothing utter- ed by him would be lost by those who followed him, as he proceeded step by step | to lay before the House the result as shown | by official accounts of his fiscal policy during ithe past year, His statements were so ‘clear, his language sv well chosen, and his | puints so weil put, that no one could fail to understand and be interested in his speech, althongh on a subject that does

jeentences being at such times Suished lamidat bursts of applause.

THK DIFFICULTIES which the present Government had to con-

tend with were cleariy shown. Not only

were they of such a character as to affect the tariff, but there were questions of tinance calling for the most prempt and skillful dealing. it was shown by the Public Accounts ef the Donrinion that, for three er four years, there had been a steady falling off in the revenue as compared with expenditure, untilit had reached an aver- age of ene and three-quarter millions. It was necessary, in carrying out the pledges of the party to the country, at the same time to increase the revenue. The Gev- ernment had not only to consider deficits ; but the late Government had entered inte engagements which their successors were beund to carry out. Large expenditures had been made on canals and railways which could not be utilized till a large ad- ditional expenditure was entered into by the present Administration. This addi- tional expenditure involved the payment of interest tu the amount of $500,000. The outlay, by the late Government, was for the purpose of giving employment to men out ef work; butif the work had been com- menced at different places from that in which it was, no very great outlay would have been necessary to make the works re- turn arevenue of some kind. it became necessary for the Government to prt under contract 180 miles of railroad connecting the Link between Lakes Superiorand Win nepeg, in order that the outlay already made might be effective and beneficial.

. THE DEFICIT IN 1879,

The Finance Minister clearly showed that the deficit for the year 1878 9 would have been 3,300 000, had not the revenue been largely increased by the anticipation of the present tarilf The revenue from customs was $700,000 and

fuking the gress | amvunt of imports from both countries, we | find that the :alling off in the impertation from England has only been 7 per cent., while the falling off from the States has} equalled 33 per cent. it isan important fact showing the incorrectness of the siate- menta made by epponents ef the Govern- ment concerning the large increase in the duties on imported goods, averaging, as they say, 35 percent., that the duty as shown by imports from all countries IS ONLY INCREASED 4 PER CENT.,

and this is owing te the fact that large quantities ef sugar, which, under the old tariff, paid a duty of 43 per cent. instead of being imported from England and United States, now come in their raw state from the West Indies, and are refined in the Do- minion.

Still chants Marseilles her sanguinary Hymn!

A strain adapted with Satanic skill,

To make the calmest hearer glow and thrill

With frenzy fatal to the power of Thought,
