Being a little later than usual in go- , ing to press last week we were able to v publish a telegram received here about 11:30 on Saturday to the effect that Gen. Middleton had been attacked by a considerable force of‘ half-breeds and Indians, whom he had repulsed, and WOW Mme firm wil, be M their Fen that ten of his men had been killed “on h,“ om“ no”, .nmrsdfly. ~ and forty wounded. Subsequent ac- “, A, JORDAX’ MIMI,“ I copnts of the fight arc to the effect that Middleton s loss was about as stated ; but the supposition at first entertained that from twonty to twenty-five of the enemy had been killed and about double that number wounded proves to have been for from correct, as their loss up- penrs to have been far less than that of the whites. Though this is not to be wondered at, as the latter were more numerous and more exposed, it is no doubt the chief ground upon which the rebcls claim a. victory, as they were forced to fly, though they certainly checked the advance of General Middle- ton's troops, who have not yet lcft Fish Creek, where the fight took place, for Batoche's crossing, where Riel is said to be strongly entrenched. Although Buttlef‘ord is now compara- tively safe, as Col. Otter reached it. last Friday after a wonderful march of 165 miles in five days, and Dickens's mount- ed police were already there, it cannot be denied that the position of affairs in the N01"tlr\\’est is such as to forbid the hope of a speedy restoration of tran- quillity. The idea, entertained by a great many. that. Riel would not fight has been effectually dispelled ; and, al- though our volunteers have won imper- ishable laurcls by their fortitude and endurance on the march and their cour- age in battle, it is quite evident that they fight at a disadvantage, us their opponents will not come out. en musre, Tues.

R. c.s., England . i for his patience and forbearance; but it must be remembered that the British premier is I christian as well as in states- and has laboured for an honourable settlement by pacific means, butâ€"as he said in a speech in the house of com- mons llal Monday eveningâ€"he is de- termined to convince the World that, if unl-uppily the controversy end in war, he and his colleagues have done every. thing poasible to prevent it. Russia, however, evidently does not want a peaceful settlement, and by lying pro~ ‘ tions is seeking to postpone the com- I mencemeot of the struggle until she is more fully prepared for it; but Eng- land is preparing with quite as much activity as her antagonist, who is not likely to profit much by the delay. The report, now nearly a. week old. that there had been a second conflict be- tween the Afghnns and the Russians, in which the latter were routed and nearly all destroyed, has not been con- firmed ; but England still demands and Russia still refuses a satisfactory e:- planation of the Pcnjdch affair, which is likely to prove the cum: bellt' between the two nations. The Russian general Kornaroff is believed to have provoked the fight, in defiance of an engagement entered into by his government and that. of England, and Mr. Gladstone, in the speech above referred to, gave the following explanations regarding it :â€" or both, had, either through ill will or through unfortunate mishap, failed to fulfil the conditions of the engagement. We considered it, and we consider it still. to be the duty of both countries. and above all, it is for the honour of both countries to examine how and by whose fault this calamity came about. I will have no foregone conclusion. I will not anticipate that. we are in the right, and although I have perfect con- fidence in the honor and intelligence of our officersâ€"(cheers)-â€"I will not now assume that they may not have been misled. I will prepare myself for the issue, and I will abide by it as far as II can in a spirit of impartiality. What I say is, that those who have caused such an engagcmeut to fail ought to become known to their own government and to each contracting party. I will tint say we are even now in posseSsion of all the facts of the case, but we are in the possession of facts which create in our minds imprchions unfavourable to the conduct of some of' those who form the other party to these negotia- tions; but l will not deviate from the strictest principle of justice in antici- pating anything of the ultimate issue of that fair inquiry which we desire to prosecute, and are endeavoring to pros- ecute. The cause of that deplorable colli ion may be uncertain. Whose was the provocation ? is a matter of the ut- most consequence. We know that the attack was a Russian attack. We know that. the Afghans suffered in- life, in spirit, and in repute. We know that. a blow was struck at the credit and au- thority of a sovereign who is a protected ally and who had committed no offence. All I say is we cannot, in :that state of things, close this book and say, “ We will lonk into it no more." We must do our best to have the right done in this matter. Under these circumstances there is a else for preparation, and I hope the house will feel with me, after what I have said, the ncccs-ity we are under of holding the Sundanese funds available for service elsewhere. I hope the house will not press upon us a de- mand for time which can have no other effect titan propagating here and else- where the belief that there is some in- decision in the mind of parliamentâ€" (Ioud cheers)â€"whereas, I believe that with one heart and one soul, and one purpose, only while reserving the abso- lute liberty of' judging the conduct of the government and visiting them with its consequences, the house will go for- ward to perform and méet the demands l l 4 ‘ I " 'I hat \volul engagement of the 30th ' _ _ , _ Marc}, distinctly 5bmved that one puny, that thousands of wives are waiting for man, and as such has not only a strong : antipathy-to violence and bloodshed. i murder? Some people will steal and murder." And again, some say it will i make people wOrae than they were be fore, for they will try all sorts of dce.-it~ ful tricks to obtain liquor, and it will j be better to allow it to be sold lawfully. ‘ The sense argument might be used in I the case of stealing. Don't pass a law 3 to stop people from stealing, for it will i make them full of deceit. Better have I no law against stealing, and then they can't break it. There may possibly be some liquor sold. But if it is sold where the net is passed whoever sells it will be running a great risk. For the first infringement of the law there is a fine of fifty dollars, for the second one hundred dollars, and for the third one year in jail. One of the best arguments in favour of the Scott Act. is that. the hotel-keepers oppose it. Would they oppose it unless it was to their disad- vantage ? Some will not vote for the Scott Act because they think it will hurt their business; but who gives them their prosperity ? Is it not God ? It says in the Bible, “ The blessing of the Lord it. maketh rich,” and “ Mine are ‘ the cattle and the sheep on a thousand hills." We are dependant on God for everything, our very life, and can we possibly be so foolish as to think that the blessing that makcth rich resteth on a man that would vote for, or help in any way, a cause that keeps men out of the kingdom of heaven? It is a bluuder in a business point of view, and we tell you moderate drinkers, duc- tors, men of'every profession or calling, this Act, that will restore to them a once kind husband or father, to be passed ; and many mothers have their lasthopes of the reformation of their sons staked upon this issue. For say what you will, this Act will remove temptation in a great measure from the young. The confirmed inebriatc may send and buy ten gallons of whisky, or eight of beer, at once, for that. is the least they can buy ; but our youth will not, and if any one sells to them every temperance man will try and prosecute him. We ask any man if he dares to take the responsibility of' assisting in blasting the hopes of so many ? Don't you think God is looking on, and the prayers of wives and mothers have gone up to the ears of the God of Sabaoth ? God bless the Scott Act ! Village Council Proceedings.

Sir John Mac- donald also while pretending to desire the adoption of the Female Suffrage clause was really advising his supporters to vote against it. Mr. Allison, of Kent, after consulting with his leader, return- ed to his seat and made a speech no- nouncing his intention to vote against the Female Suffrage proposition. The I’remier's insinccrity and trickery was open and above board. While anxious to take credit to himself as an advocate of woman's rights he intrigued to have the Female Suffrage clause of his Bill struck out. __ .c._.. 9..

A-Fight for Freedom. There is no Canadian who is not a Tory member, candidate, or expectant candidate who does not wish in his heart that the Liberals may win the battle for selfgovcrnmcnt now being fought at Ottawa. The Franchise Bill of Sir John A. Macdouald is one which no language is strong enough to con- demn. It is a reactionory measure. It disfruuchisos thousands of Canadians who now have votes. It creates a horde of partisan and irremoVable officials, with power to decide who is to vote and who is not. It. interferes with local selligoverumeut in the most. arbitrary way. It adds hundreds of thousands of dollars to the annual taxes at a time when the bankruptcy of the Dominion is almost in sight. The nation which will submit to a measure of this kind is unfit. to be a nation, unfit to be free; and will assuredly cease to be free the moment this Bill becomes law. It. is sought to establish a tyranny ten times worse than the Downing-street domina- tion from which the last generation freed theirâ€"shall we say cravcn ?---sous. Under a Parliament elected by such a law as this no person's life or property will be safe. The liberties of the peo- ple depend on the staunchness of the small, but gallant, band of Liberals at Ottawa. They must use every consti- tutional means to stein the tide of dos- potistn and corruption now threatening to overwhelm us as a people. It de- pends upon them whether the people shall ever again be. allowed to choose tlons shall be turned into a roaring farce. The support of every true Ca- nadian should be tendered to them in this crisis of the country's fate. The twenty-nine hours" session of Monday and Tuesday is an earnest of what is to come if the attempt to carry this atrocious measure is persevered in. Sir John Macdouald undertook to bind- goon his disl'ranchisiug Bill through committee in one session. The stub- bornness of the Opposition defeated him. He was only ablcâ€"â€"and that by a con- cession which amounted to a capitula- tionâ€"to get a vote on one amendment to the interpretation clause of his Bill. There are many other amendments to the same clause to be debated, and any one of them is worth debating at the same or greater lengthâ€"Globe. _.*._~__ v Newspapers of To-Day. People generally, and even those who may be termed steady readers and close observers, have buta faint conception of the magnitude and influence the press of this country has attained. From a careful examination of the ad- vance pages of the 1885 edition of the American Newspaper Directory. issued May 1st, by Geo. I’. Rowell A; 00., of New York, it appears that there are 14,147 newspapers and periodicals pub- lished in the United States and Canada; of these the United States has 12.973. an average of one paper for every 3.867 persons. In 1884 the total number of newspapers was less by 823 than at present, and while the gain this year is not so marked as in soon: provious years. it is still considerable. Kansas shows the greatest increase, the numbvr being 78. while Illinois follows with at their 0W" “lief-‘3 0“ "he‘ll" our Clt'c' applied for an injunction against A Scotch golatine manufacturer sends out with each package of his goods a leaf from the Bible.
