The House of Commons declared its belief in his entire inrocerce, by a large majority, and he would then have been perfectly justified in treating the accusation with contempt. But he knew the nature of his accusers, and in justice to the country and himself he sub- mitted himself to the fullest enguiry. A committee was struck, and he was even willing that Messrs. Blake and Dorion, who would each profit to the tune of $7,000 a year and a portifolio were he canvicted, should be his judges.

The Persian Concession to Baron Reuter. The particulars will shortly be made The Rothschilds. The founder of the great house of Rothschild, Meyer Anselm Rothschild, was born in the miierable, filthy, Juden- gasse in Frankicrt-onstheMain, in the year 1743. At eleven he lost his parents ; but friends kept him to scheol a few yeafs longer ; and then, packing up his few clothes, he took a stout stick in his hands and walked to Hanover. Here he found a place with a small banker and money- changer, and, by dint of extreme parsi- mony, managed to save a little money out of his miserable salary. - With this capital hundred years ago. He established hin- solf as a broker and money-lender in the Juden-gasse ; hung up a Red Shield (Roth Schild) over his door, and took un- to himself a wife. The Landgrave of Hesse Cassel made his acquaintance ; and, after the bombardment of Frankfert by Napoleon, Rothschild wus appointed banker to the Landgrave and his Court. When the further troubles came upon Germany, the Landgrave handed over about a quarter of a millién of pounds sterling to Rothschild to tako care of a million.

After the dinner, toasts and in order to make an efficient public servant, it was necessary that a man should be at the beck and bid of Sir John Macdonald. We presume we were mis- taken, as it sees that the Ottawa Govern- ment have adopted the Yankee principle of ruling public officials for political ends. | 'This was shown very plainly in the Welland election, from one point of view ; snd we have another side of the case in the late election of South Ontario. Mr. Lauder, the Postmaster at Whitby, took a violent pari in favor of Mr. Gibbs, and was one of that gentleman's most extreme partizans tlironghout the elections actually acting, we understand, as chairman of Mr. . Gibbs' Committee in Whitby. Did he get any little missive from Mr. Gilbert Grif- fin, at Ottawa, politely warning bim against the fmpropriety of his conduct 1 Not he. Ho acted in full confidence that he was carrying out the wishes of the . Government, snd perhaps their instruc- tions. We hope when the Parliawsent meets again, that Mr. Lauder's improper . snd indecent conduct aay be the subject of investigation, and that he may be re- lieved from the cares of an office which himself so nuworthy to take the his power as to undo the prejudices which | his furmer course has crested against him. | But we may say frankly, that as a mem- ber of Macdonald's governmentghoweve- | he may be dor recd: Te will not'be allow- | «d to do th's.

Now, 'where did that certified list go to during that hour? In whose hands wasit! What right had the deputy Returning Officer to allow it to go out of his charge? Was the certified list altered, amended, or other- wise tampered during its mysterious absence I Theso are «questions that we might answer if we chose, but we will take another opportuuity of alluding to this flagrant violation of duty on the part of the DeputyReturning Officer. We merely for the present suggest the qnestion : what security have the people that they are voting on correct lists, or that fraudulent votes are are not reserted to by candidates when the list of voters certified by the ohn | Judge as correct, is allowed to be made use 'sad creads met to pay the last tribute of 'vespect to Holl.

After dinner the crowd separated, and the members of the various brigades gave full vent to the'r individual inclinations. The great event. of the day, however, was the torch-light procession, which took place fi the Victoria Engins House, marching down {the main streets, with splendid effect. It was universally remarked that the Oshawa Brigade was decidedly the finest body of men in the whole assembly, a superiority which was especially evident in their marching, which was universally admired.

FAREWELL. should be made in & JooseCameronian way, so that his reso.ution bore in its first line his own name 8» the one on whase information the accusation was brought. That fact in itself shows the diff=rence between the two men ; the one eager to float"s damaging personal charge, yet en- deavoring to creep ont of all responsi- bility therefor ; the other standing boldly forward and taking the full responsibility that making so grave a charge involved. Again, when Mr. Cameron made iis ver- bal charge in the Iouse, he repeatedly as- serted that it was Mr. Blake who offered corrupt inducements to Mr. Wood, and never once charged any one else with that offence. Consequewtly when he produced J the written resolution, asking for an en- quiry, Mr. Blake insisted that the en- quiry should be into his (Mr. Blake's) conduct alone, as it was against him that Mr. Cameron had brought the verbal charge. There was no wrong done Mr- Cameron in this. He had brought the charge against Blake--he had preferred to have proof of Blake's guilt--so that Mr. Blake was quite justified in pinning him down closely to that one distinct charge. If Camoron thought proper afterwards, or at the time, to bringa similar charge against the other members of the Government, he was quite free to do so, and could have had as'many com mittees as he desired if he were willing to state his belief that such Ministers wore guilty, But he never had the courage to express any such belief about any one, except Mr. Blake, and therefure result was, that though there were verbal alterations in Mr. Cameron's motion, it remained in substance the same, and if he had had the slightest atom of evidence, he: could have proved his charge as well as under the altered resolution as under the original one, Ay a matter of fact Mr. Blake did not alter Mr. Cameron's motion a whit more than Sir John alter- ed Mr, Huntington's. They both re- mained substantially tho same, and Mr, Huntington has quite as much--nay in- finitely more--right to say that his charge has been burked than even Mr. Cameron If wo compare the action of the two accusers the balance is very much against scene 1n the Logislaturo will remwomber that it was almost in a white heat of pas- sion that Cameron, stung by Blake's biting sarcasm, furiously declarsd that he would wsk for a Committee of Ea- quiry into Blake's dealings with Wood, and. that he would prove his charge be- fore it. Had Mr. Cameron not lost his self control atthe time, he would not have used any such rash language; but, having thus committed himself, he had to carryout his threat. He had to agk for a iirtee of Baquiry, but whou he 'get it he 'refased to have any further eon. 1 he people. _ Bubscribe for the Reyonszs, during its abssnce. nection with the charge on the pror quib- |in case of the establishment of a State | tsing this year, avd will make $800,000 bank, or gasworks, telegraphs, posts, | bY it: Printers' ink pays. mills, manufactures, ete. | "A Queer Teicmer.--The Giblsites | must be hard pusshed for advocates of taeir canse.

The | Mr. Cameron, Those who witnessed th | Taz Hamilton Spectator sayy: Shortly after nine o'clock last night while con- stables McElroy and Strongman were on papers to the edge of the hole for the re- ception of letters outside, One of the | duty on James street their attention was |; | master, who immediately made an exam. | ination, when it was found that a piece of wood had been inserted in the tube which conveys letteis to the box completely blocking it up, The vbstruction was soon 'removed and every thing placed all right again, No doubt the object of the party who placed the obstruction was to cause the letters to accumulate in the tube, so | | that they might be the easier extracted. | In this attempt however, they were foiled. Tus Orange Incorporation Bills passed by the Ontario Legislature have not yet been sanctioned by Sir John A, Macdon- ald, but if he omits to disallow them for another year they become law without his sanction. Ee takes this courss in order to evade responsibility. To sanction them overtly he thinks would offend his Lower Canada sepporters, and to disallow them would offond some of his supporters in Upper Canada ; hence he adopts a neutral { policy, being afraid to do what he be- liaves to te right, He practices one of his oid and common tricks cf dodging the question at issue and shirking the respon- sibility. But if he returns the bills, as it is said he will, without sanction or dis- allowance, it will be equivalent, in fact, to an approval - just as in the case of President of the United States, who, fail. ing to vote or sign a bill within ten days after it passes both Houses of Congress, allows, it vo b law. by i We cannot see however, that such a course . will be of any real advantage to him poljt- iclly, as he satisfiey neither of the parties af been sodded,and vines planted, and flower beds made, which add greatly to the beauty of this charming pleasure resort. Bx Cueerrut.--Emerson says : "Do called to the fact that there was something | not hang a dismal pictore on your wall, wrong with the drop letter box, and ob- | and do not deal with sables and gloom in served that it was filled with lettess and | your conversation." Beecher follows with: * Away with tlose fellows who go howling through life, all the while f constables remained in charge, while the | passing for birds of paradise.

Talmadge then takes vp the strain : "Some people have an idea that they comfort the afflicted when they groan over them, When you Lind vp a broken bone of the soul, and you want splints, do not make them of cast iron." After such coun- sellings and admonitions, lay aside your long faces, This is how the Ottawa Government do things : They appoint a most estimable gentleman--Judge Johnson, now 82 years of age, vosiding, for the bemefit of his health, in the South of France, from whence he is not likely to return--Lieu- tenant-Governor of Nova Scotia, in the place of the lamented Joseph Howe, de- ceased ; but, immediately after, appoint a devoted adherent of the Government, Administrator of the Nova Scotisn Gov- ernment, pro tem. [hus to bribe support --that of the friends of Judge Johnson and of Stewart Campbell--they make two appointments to the same office, almost at cae and the same time. . Sir John is evidently growing desperate, whea he re- sorts to tricks so shabby as this: The coming investigation of the Huntington charges, in connection with the Canada Pacific, has evidently alarmed him ; and he is, in consequence, anxious to make as many new friends as possible, in the ine terim between now and the next meeting of Parlinment in August next.
