It ia au epocli which brings out clearly the fact that the priesthood and bishops have lost to a great ex- tent the powet wliicli tliey JiclUin past years over temporal matters, for Quebec itself has given them unequiv- ocally to understand this fact, seat after scat having been gained by the Liberals in that land oi the mande- ment itself.

Sir, â€" As in your last isaue there ap- peared a letter over the oignature of John I, Uraham in reUtion to the alx>ve action which niakeB ruf eronco to me, I respect- fully request the insertion of a reply. Mr. Graham practically admits the correctness of the newspaper report of his case excej>t as to ])aynient8 niode by him since the family settlement in 1893. If he i» correct in his contradiction it is strange he did not say wliat ainouut he (mid in casli and m supplies. This would have made his objection much more valuable. He claims to have asked some one to buy some supplies, but nothing more. His letter nuppreases the fact that his offer of settlement in luy office had the condition attached that his mother should accept supplies instead of the 9100 annually in cash agreed upon. This she objected to. Tlie same thing was sought to be effected by the family settle- ment which the court has disallowed. Mr. Graham ha« been incautious in re- fomng to the amount of judgment re- covered against huu by way of com- promise, first becausu he resisted payment of the chatties reserved by his mother on the ground that he was protected by the statute of Liinitatiuns, and seoondly becausu of the information given by his solicitors as to his financial standing and evident effect of a large judgment. The Biiialler the amount the more readily paid. He should not have complained of this and it caimot of course be the oc- casion of an advertisement for the sale of Ilia property now published. His letter is also incorrect as to costs as he jmys his own costs under any cir- cumstance. His " lack of good advice," or rather of his ahiUty to take it and of filial con- duct aru conspicuuualy displayed in bin continued neglect and jwraiNtoiit refusal to (Miy his mother her annuity for 5 or years jMtst, during which as ho suggests she has grown older. I do not understand his closing sentences and have only to say if he refers tu me it is a piece of i{ratuitous impertinence without foundation and that your correN|iondeiit should have plenty to do altending to his own affairs without liothering with more. J. W. FROST. Uwen Sound, June 22nd, 1896. On motion, the Council theM odjoffrned till ten n'vlock cm Wednesday morning to allow ctmimitteus time to consider matters referred to them. wednbsdat mornino The Warden took the chair at ten o'clock.
