The right ear was nearly cut from the head. Dr. Miller, of Middleton, was im- mediately sent for, but the poor man was be- yond medical aid, having received a fracture
at the base of the brain, from the effects of which and the shock he never rallied. Mr. Cousins was a single man. halite Parsru. Accipent.—We regret to learn

Mr. Large had ascended the outside stairway leading to the painting de- partment, and was just about to open the door when he lost his balance. In order to save himeelf as mach as possible, he sprang for- ward and came down heavily feet foremost, a distance of about fifteen feet, breaking or splintering his right leg near the ankle joint. No one being near at the time, Mr. Large pluckily srawled up the stairway him- gelf. He was conveyed to his father's resi- denee on Bayfield street, and Dr. Johnson was quickly galled. At last accounts our young friend was much easier, the pain, which was extremely severe, having considerably sub- «ided.

Measures for the Development of the Country Onitlined.
Orrawa, Jan. 31.
To-day at three o'clock His Excellency the Governor-General proceeded in state to Parliament House, and the members of the House of Commons having been summoned the His Ex-
cellency was pleased to open the third ses-
to the Chamber of Senate, sion of the sixth Parliament of the Dominion of Canada with the following
SPEECH : Honorab c er ntle nien of the Senate
Gentlemen of the Commons
Hous of
lu addressing the Parliament of Canada for |
the first time, in fulfilment of the important
trust which has been committed to me as Her Majesty's representative, I desire to express the satisfaction with which lL resort to your advice and assistance. I
am conscious of the honor which at tends my association with your labors for the welfare of the Dominion, and it will be earnest endeavor to co-operate with you to the utmost of my power in all that may pro- mote the prosperity of the people of this country, the development of her material re- sources and the maintenance of the constitu- tional ties which unite her Provinces.
It is to be regretted that the treaty con- cluded between Her Majesty and _ the
my a
President of the United States for the adjust- | ment of the questions which have arisen with |
reference to the fisheries has not been tioned by the United States Senate, in whom the power of ratification is vested, and that our legislation of last year on this subject is, therefore, in a great measure, inoperative. Lt now only remains for Canada to continue to maintain her rights as perscribed by the con- vention of 1818 until some satisfactory re-ad
justment is arranged by treaty between the two nations.
A measure will again be submitted to you toamend the Act respecting the Electeral Franchise, for the purposo of simplifying the law and lessening the costs of its operation.
lt is expedient, in the interests of com- merce, to assimilate and in some particulars to amend the laws which nor obtain the several provinces of the Dominion relating to bills of exchange and promissory notes, and a bill with this onject will be laid before you.
A bill will also be provided for making uniform throughout the Dominion the laws relating to bills of lading.
During the recess my Government has care- fully considered the subject of ocean steam service and you will be asked to provide sub- sidies for the improvement of the Atlantic mail service and for the establishment, in concert with Her Majesty’s government, of a line of fast steamers between British Colum- bia and China and Japan. Your attention will also be invited to the best mode of de- veloping our trade and securing direct com- munication by steam with Australasia, the West Indies and South America.
A bill will be submitted-for your consider- ation for the prevention of certain offences in connection with municipal councils and to give greater facilities for making enquiries as to such matters.
Several measures will also be presented to you for improving the law of procedure in criminal cases. Among these will be a bill to permit the release, on probation, of persons convicted of first offences ; a bill authorizing regulation to be made for the practice in cases partaking of the nature of criminal proveed- ings, and a bill to make the speedy trials act applicable throughout Canada ; bills relating to the inspection of timber and lumber, for the improvement of the postal system, and for increasing the efliciency of the Northwest mounted police, will also be submitted for your consideration.
The royal commissioners ox labor having concluded their enquiries, I hope to be able to lay before you at an early day their report, with the important evidence collected by them in various parts of Canada,
Gentlemen of the House of Commons :
The accounts for the past and the estimates for the ensuing year will be laid before you. The estimates have been prepared with a due regard to economy and tne efficiency of the
Sanc-
pubtic service. Honorable Gentlemen of the Senate : Gentlemen of the House of Commons :
I now commend these several subjects and the others which may be brought before you to your earnest consideration and I trust the result of your deliberations may, under the Divine Blessing, tend to promote the well being and prosperity of Canada.

Members are arriving by every train. It is understood that the reply in the Senate will be moved by Senator Drummond, seconded by Senator Perley.

Constipation
Demands prompt treatment. The re- sults of neglect may be serious. Avoid
all harsh and drastic purgatives, the tendency of which is to weaken the bowels. The best remedy is Ayer’s Pills. Being purely vegetable, their action is prompt and their effect always beneficial. They are an admirable Liver and After-dinner pill, and every- where endorsed by the profession.
** Ayer’s Pills are highly and univer- sally spoken of by the people about here. I make daily use of them in my practice.’”’— Dr. I. E. Fowler, Bridge- port, Conn.
‘*T can recommend Ayer’s Pills above all others, having long proved their value as a cathartic for myself and family.’”’—- J.T. Hess, Leithsville, Pa.
‘‘For several years Ayer’s Pills have been used in my family. We find them an
Effective Remedy
for constipation and indigestion, and are never without them in the house.” — Moses Grenier, Lowell, Mass.
“I have used Ayer’s Pills, for liver troubles and indigestion, during many years, and have always found them yrompt and efficient in their action.’”’ — r N. Smith, Utica, N. Y.
“T suffered from constipation which assumed such an obstinate form that I feared it would cause a stoppage of the bowels. Two boxes of Ayer’s Pills ef- fected a complete cure.’”’—D. Burke, Saco, Me.
“‘T have used Ayer’s Pills for the past thirty years and consider them an in- valuable family medicine. I know of no better remedy for liver troubles, and have always found them a prompt cure for dyspepsia.’’— James Quinn, $0 Middle st., Hartford, Conn.
‘‘Having been troubled with costive- ness, which seems inevitable with per- sons of sedentary habits, I have tried Ayer’s Pills, hoping for relief. I am zlad to say that they have served me yetter than any other medicine. [I arrive at this conclusion only after a faithful trial of their merits.’’— Samuel T. Jones, Oak st., Boston, Mass.
