Solnrnerrille has addressed the following letter to the Montreal Gazette :-r Two months ngol brought under publib notice the fact of William Scott, nephew of the renowned author of Waverley, being in Montreal, and in very humble circumstan- ces as well as feeble health. Several per- sons intimated a desire to do something for hlmif relationship to theiilustriouus Scotch- man were truly established. I did not doubt it, but to satisfy them assumed the agreeable duty ofwriting to different per- sons in Scotland, England, Ireland, and the United States, likely to give infor- mation. Among others, to the Provost of Selkirk, enclosing the letters which I had A written for the Montreal Gazette, and re- questing him to inquire of Mr Scott : rela- tivcs there, and at Abbotsford. The rst result was a letter, about three weeks ago, from one of the Abbotsford family, cousin of William Scott, to a lady in Montreal, de~ airing to have is written communication from himself, and acknowledging the cor- , rectness of the statement made by mein the Gazette about William : apprenticeship at Edinburgh, and proposal of the uncle_ in 1827 that he should go to London. The occasion was the nancial misfortunes which had involved Sir Walter Scott with his pl IDl.t: l'8 and publishers, the Ballantynes, and Constable & Co.. rendering a further maintenance of the nephew in Edinburgh undesirable. ` 'ls..s__.. :\ - 1 . up . s -as uuuunn GU10. - By last mail arrived at Montreal, Febru- oiry 18, 1869, I letter from Selkirk ha come out from one ofhir Scott`: half brothers, Mr Mitchell. enclosing nn autograph letter of Sir Walter Scott written in 1827, which settles the question of relationship. You may remember I mentioned 3 letter which the uncle had written for the nephew to present to Mr Barber,` Pall Mall, London, but which the let], not having gone to Lon- don, brought to Canada in 1827, kept till 1883,nnd forwnnlcd to General Sir Fen- wick Williams in Montreal, but which the General did not receive, it hnving been purloined in transit. I wrote to General Williams two months ago, inquiring if he recullected such` nutngraph letter of Sir Walter Scott. To thin no reply hes been made. It is now unimportant. Thatito Mr Bar- ber was accompanied by another to the ne- phew, which William left. with his mother at Selkitk in 1827. She died in 1866, her papers passing to her son, Mr Mitchell, Sheriff Substitute of Selkirkshirei. This is the letter: sin wu.-ran scorr 1'0 ms NIPEIW wu.t.1.us sco'r'r,uutca 1827. Dear" William: It will now proper that you era in readiness to are to London as soon as a vessel can sail with safety. I enclose a cheque on Mr John Gibson, W.S., for ten pounds to de- fray immediate expenses. You will go straight to Mr Barber, my very good friend, and present him with the enclosed letter on my accompt. I will settle any accompts there may be due by you here. After this, I conceive that so far as actual expenses [a word- is here scored over], you are now qualied by education to support yourself. I do not expect that you can make much at rst, and'of course you may have some diiculties. But this must be and ought to be the case with all new beginners. You have in my hands the sum of 1300, bequeathed you by my mother, which I hope you will be able to save till some favourable opportunity of employ- ing it to advantage in your business, being all you have to trust to. desirous at all times to while I nd you are industrious and: well-behav ed, which I sincerely hope may be the case. On the contrary, should you fall into idle company, to which there is much temptation, you cannot expect that] should continue my regard. Let me hear from you, when you get to London, how you are settled. I will ask Mr Loclthart when he comes to town to give alook after I you. But of courleI will be, attend to your interests The appetite for"thc acquisition of the Northwest territory has been whetted by the reports of the probability of a speedy transfer :of jurisdiction to Canada. It is known that the negotiations, interrupted by Mr Ilacdou'gal1 s illness and the change of administration, have been since resumed, and it is reported that important concessions have beeniniade by the Hudson's Bay Com- pany. The time, it is believed, is now at hand when we shall be able to look upon the fertile territories of the Red River and Northwest as part of the Confederation, and hold up to the attraction of the European emigrant a class-of lands which have been rapidly settled in the United States, and which will no doubt be as rapidly settled on our side of the line when facilities at? access andguarantees of local self-government are afforded by the Canadian administration. The older settlements of Canada will furnish pioneers of setslement in the new territories, and the nucleus of pioneers will gather about them some of the surplus of population now crying out in England ; and we may expect to witness in the Northwest some of that astounding rapidity of development observa- ble in the Western States. It is an expecta- tion of this kind that lands an interest to the reports that are current concerning the , speedy acquisition of the Northwest. It is felt also that the Red River and Saskatche- wan territories must become Canadian. and be opened up to our civilisation. before we can ask: or expect the Pacic colonies to join in the great plan of Confederation. It is not an idle expectation to look forward to the expansion of the Dominion until it shall stretch from the Atlantic to the Paci- c ; but manifestly such an expansion must be gradual, and be accomplished territory by territory, until the ideal completeness of a great northern power on this continent, essentially British in its origin and in- stincts, shall be established by the unbro- ken extension of the Dominion from ocean to ocean. The great work will be the ac- qnisition and lling up with population of the fertile belt intervening between Lake Winnepeg and the Rocky Mountains, a. work which will begin `from the moment that the government of Cansda acquires authority in the Northwest.

Abont;l0 o'clock the wife and maid took from him hie watch and chain, money and rings, and cut and tore his clothes somewhat. Then they poured some whiekeydown his throat and spilled some on his clothes. Then, having put on cloak: and covered their heads with hurls, they partially raised him end made him walk out of the: house with them. The night was dark and the streets were deserted. Sup- porting him on either side, they went three'or four blocks from the house, and there left him ly- ing on the sidewelk, knowing that n policeman would pass within hslf an hour.

In a late article on the House of Correc- tion and Indutrry we referred to the Irish system of dealing with tfonvicts, and the great success which had attended it. hut had not at the time the authorities to gut: details. The same system, or nearly _the same system, had been introduced into Spain with a similar result, under the supervision of Colonel Montesinos. To use the words of Mr Recorder Hill,-Under his system the prisons _became_1nod(-ls of order, cleanliness and cheerful industry ; plots or desertions were almost unknown ; and during the twenty years that be was at Valencia he never required the presence of any armed force, not even to guard the - bands of prisoners, numbering sometimes 400 : men, who worked outside the walls. The annual recornmitments, which had averaged thirty-veper cent, sauic-' to two per cent. A_change of le- gislation completely destroyed the good ef- fects of the system and produced sullen- neas, discontent and idleness. The Eng- lish system with its high dietary, imperfect classication and arbitrary granting of tickets of leave, has been attended with most. disastrous effects, in spite of the miuuteness of the rules, which theoreticnF ly are well calculated for the end in view, bht which are futile from what appears in be a radical defect vitiating the whole". That detect. seems to be the want of the training necessary to instil self-reliance, and to lead to a feeling of self-respect. The differences between the two systems would appear to be these. In the English prisons there is high dietary with little work, and more care bestowed on the bodily ailments of the prisoner titan the labouring man enjoys. Second : There are grlllllllt and remissions oi sentences given as a matter of course and regarded by tltt-convict as a right, unless forfeited by unusual misconduct. Third: Machine like regularity a minute coercion of __.-.._ . .. _ _II l.'_.__aL_._,,La -,.I 2:l0 1.11:. _ vu-ngcu uDlIVl0I III!

Fourth : There is an absence of registration and supervision. The Irish system may on the other hand be describ- ed as, First : A very low dietary, raised ac- cording to the conduct of the convict. Second. Gratuities and remissions made to depend, not on abstinence from o'ences,- but from actual work done. Third: Inter- mediate Prisions, the object of which is to test. the results of the previous course of discipline, in which very little restraint is exercised and the system of marks is dis- continued. Fourth: A thorough registra- tion and eicient supervision over dis- charged convicts. That the benecial e'ects are due to the system itself and not to anything exctptio: al in the character of the prisoners, can admit of no doubt. Be- fore its inauguration and after the discon- tinuance of tr'ansp:>rta.tion, which aifected England and Ireland alike, the state of the Irish prisons was so bad th-it a Commission of Inquiry was issued in 1853, and in the following year Sir Walter, then Captain, Crotton was placed at the head of a new Board of Directors, to carry out a fresh system of management. Under this the convict is sent to . Mountjoy prism for at hast eight months, an ex- tension being enforced if his conduct render it necessary. The dietary for the first four months is very low, and during the whole time much attention is devoted to ruliuinna nnri not-nlnr inna-..-a:__ , n Iouu vvuutc nun: Iuucu uuenuon I! devoted to religious and secular instruction; all the rules are carefully explained, and he is made to feel that his future depends on himself, every effort for his own improve- ment being met with friendly co-operation. As the network of detection becomes known to him be generally submits, the spirit of sullen antagonism disappears, and he becomes prepared for the second stage. Previous to entering on that, his dietary has been raised to fit him for labour. In the next stage he is. sent, if a labourer, to Spike Island; it . an artizan, to Phillips Town to work at his trade. In either of these places he has an oportunity of gain- ing gratuities, which are allowed to ac- cumulate till the time of his discharge. But the fundamental dieronoo between the two systems, which we have pointed out, operates in this way in favour of the Irish pluu-that he is made fully to under- stand that his whole earnings belong to society whose laws he has infringed, and the gratuities depend not on mere ab-' stincnce from crime, but on an excess of labour beyond that required. This pro- bation is divided into four classes, and the convict can only advance from one to an- other by earning a certain number of marks, which are given for general orderly dctneanour, for industry at school, and in- ` dustry at work. The marks are given by xed denite rules, known to the con- victs, and which enable them to register them themsclves-a point regarded as of great importance as giving to each man a. measure of the self-control ho ii and the industrious habits he-i and misconduct is punished by loss of marks, and in extreme cases by the return of the convict to Mountjoy prison. Dan- gerous men are separated from the others and placed on very low diet, idlers are put a class apart and on low diet, without meat, until they show signs of improvement. All these provisions form a preparation for the intermediate prisons, through the discipline of which the convicts are prepared for liberty to go at large. In these, as we ha_ve said little restraint is exercised. At Lusk, about twelve miles from Dublin, where .tb_e_ la- bourers are employed, they have been en'- gaged draining and reclaiming waste land. Here, from fty to a hundred men are at work at once, living in two large iron huts, and superintended by from ve to nine warders who work with them. They have no prison dress, and beyond the few ward- ers there is nothing, not even a fence, to prevent them from c as acquired, Lacquiring, industriouslv as free , and have been known in over- hours to give their assistance to save the harvest. They are allowed sixpenca a week to spend out of their gratuities, and al- t_hough so near a city like Dublin, not the slightest attempt has been made t scaping.
