Among the noticeable things about the conducting of the House of Commons, no- |thing strikes the person who has been used ,to the ceremonies of the Local Legislature of |P. E. Island more than the simplicity with which messages from the Senate are receiv- ed: Asis known to your readers, the re- ‘ception of a message from the Legislative Council is a most fermal proceeding. The Clerk of that body announces his approach with thundering raps, and then the Ser- geant.at-Arms seizes his white wand and \strikes it heavily ow the floor, calling the attention of Mr. Speaker and announcing | Ottawa Letter. } ‘““a message from the honorable the Legislative | Council.” Should the House be in committee, a rush is made to report progress, the Speaker seizes his silk hat, and the Clerk comes sailing in with his flowing gown. Then the Legislative Council advances bowing to the bar, where he is met by the Olerk of the House, who most humbly receives the com- munication from the Local Lords. I¢ is very different at Ottawa. When the Senate has a communication to make the Clerk | comes quietly to the door of the House of Commons and signals a page, who informs the Assistant Clerk. Then that official goes to the outside of the bar and takes the message and lays it on the table without comment, This is all the cere- mony there is about it, and it really seems to be a very sensible way of doing business. No fuss or flammery about it, and no interruption to the business of the session, A few days ago Mr. Foster introduced a resolution making provision for payment of two coramissioners for the Chicago Ex- hibition, and satting forth that two mem- bers of Parliament might be sppointed. This was opposed by che Opposition as contrary to the independence of Parlia- ment Act; and was also opposed by Mr. McCarthy and Mr. Hazen of St. John, After considerable explanation and dis- cussion it was agreed that only ariual ex- penses allowed by the Governor-Ge-ieral in Council should be paid; and the resolution as amended was adopted. Mr, Davies asked if it was true, as reported, that the hon. member for London, Unt., (Mr. Car- ling) was to be one of the Com- missioners, He did not, however, get any satisfaction. The good humor of everyone was restored when Mr. Ohariton moved that the grant should not be paid if the exhibition was open on Sunday. Mr. Charlton may be very sincere in his respect for the Sabbath, but he is making other members almost profane with his constant motions respecting its observance. The news of the death of Lieut. Gordon, R. N., which took place on Friday morn- ing, 24th ult., will ba received with regret by many in P. E. Island, where he made many friends while in command of the 88. Acadia. The papers in connection with the treaty with France have been published. The dispute between Sir Charles Tupper and the Government of Canada consists in the f.llowing, viz : Article 2of the Treaty says ;: ‘‘ Any com mercial advantage granted by Canada to any third power, especially in tariff matters, shell be enjoyed tully by France, Algeria and the French colonies.” The telegram sent to Sir Charles Tupper, dated 12th January, 1893, was as follows : “‘ Re French negotiations, Government can- not accept conditions involved in clauses regarding steamship subvention and reduction duty Freach books, but agree to most favored nation treatment ‘ so far as articles named in Treaty’ are concerned. They agree to other conditions in retarn for mioimum tariff on articles named, as regards France and St. Pierre, Miquelon. This subject to your views as to effect on proposed Spanish negotiations.” Signed ** BOWELL.” This seems to be the point of the disa- ereement, as the Government only accepted articles namedin the treaty as those to which the most favored treatment would aj p'y, whereasthe Treaty makes no such conditions ; but would include all articles is which atreaty might be made with any other country. What the outcome will be is difficult to determine. The final meeting of the Committee on Agriculture was held on Wednesday morn- ing, and the report of the Committee was it was resolved to print 100,000 also that 150,000 copies each of the Experi- mental Farm and Dairy Commissioners’ reports be printed for distribution. During the discussion on Monday re the Civil Service Superannuation Bill, the following was brought out, viz :-— Of those who were superannusted in 1871, there sre to-day eight living of an average age of 84 years, drawing out of the fund $3,265.72 per year. still living, with averages of 78 years, and drawing $1,172 52 per year out of the fund Of those superannusted in 1873 there are thirteen upon the list, with an average age of 74 years, drawing $1,057.88 Of those retired in 1875, thirteen are still upon the list, with an average age of 74 years, drawing $5,442.99 per year. For the year 1876, eigh: are upon the superannuation list, with an average age of 71 years, drawing $6,163.60 per year. ¥or 1877 there are 13 upon the list, with an average age of 74 years, drawing $5,898 per year. Of those for 1878, 19 are still upon the list. with an average of 80 years, dieing $6,887.94 per year out of the fund. For 1879 there are also 19 upon the list with an a of 74 years, drawing $8,963 54 per year. Of those sup*rannuated in 1830, 15 are still upon ‘he list, average age 75 years, drawing $6,!93.- 63 per -year. For 1881, 21 are still upon the list at «nm average age of 74 years, drawing $8,116.92. For 1882, there are 22 on the list, average age 75 years, drawing $11,665.48 yearly. Year, No, Average Age.

The bi!l introduced thie session is intended to lessen the burden on the coun try by increasing the abatement exacted from civil servants and gramting them in certain cases insurance in case of death, Mr. Foster in speaking of the matter the other day said : The bit proposes to form a superannuation number too, into which shall go civil servants appointed after the passage of the act.” It is proposed to make the abate- ment 33 per cent. on salaries over and 3 per cept. on salaries under $600. It is proposed to limit the age at which employes can go up- on the superannuation list to 45. That is to say, no person who is appointed over 45 years of uge shall have the benefit of the fund sor be charged with the abatement, It is expected that this system wili gradual- ly do away with the burden of the superannu- ation payments, as it is provided’ that no one can be superannuated until he is 65 years of age. All the expense to the Government will be 2 per cent. interest allowed extra on what is paid in as abatementr. Itis also provided that no one can he superannuated until he has been ten years iu the service. vo G. F..0, rere Literary Notes. The April number of Donahoe’s Magazine is at hand.

Perfect Health is Necessary to Achieve Success, The time for summer sporte is rapidly approaching, and should remind all athletes that they require a certain preparation in order to fit them to take part in the various games now so popular in Canada. Close confinement during the winter season in imperfectly ventilated shops, flices and dwellings has weakened the system. Thousands of young men have become nervous, dyspeptic and morose ; many are overworked and run down physi- cally, and feel that they are nut what they should be. At this time a word of advice is given in a kindly spirit to all who have aspirations to excel in athletics, The system needs toning and strengthening; every nerve, tissue and muscle needs a food—a strength builder, This strength and life giver is Paine’s Celery Compourd. If this grand remedy is faithfully used for a few weeks before lacrosse, baseball and bicycle men take the field, a wonderful degree of strength, vigor and vitality is secured for the summer campaign. Members of every well-known athietic association speak loudly in favor of Paine’s Celery Compound. Thousands have tried it, and acknowledge ita great worth as a recuperator and builder. Try its powers, young man, if you wish to be strong. | wem wicca “amessom MRS. GRO, FARRELL, Etna, XN. 8 RHEUMATISM AND EFFFCTS OF LA GRIPPE BANISHED! Mrs. Geo. Yarrell, of Etna, Kings Co., NN.
