Alter recess. 0n the order for consideration in com- mittee of Mr. Girouard'e Bill concerning mnrricge With a. deceased wife's eister. Mr. filake pointed out that the present Billwas so altered from that introduced by the member for Jacques Cartier last year that it was almost a transcript of the amendment introduced by the hon. member (or Maskinonge (Mr. Houde two years ago. providing for the remova of all prohibi- tions. which was defeated by a vote of 138 to 10. He (Mr. Blake) had very great objections to the clause as now proposed. The Bill at first rendered legal a marriage between a man and his deceased wife’s sister. but it conditioned that legality. with the exception of dispensations and rules of the various churches, somewhat in the language of the 127th article of the code. During the progress of the Bill_all‘ those exce tions were eliminated. and the Bill{ was eft simply a Bill to render le al the marriage of a man with his deoease wife's sister. By the Bill as it passed the House the marriage of a man with his deceased wife‘s sister was civilly legal wherever it took place within the Dominion. As the Bill now stood.it was pro nod to apply the 197th clause of the' e. which wil apply in Quebec. and theconsequenoe would be that instead of marri s with adeceaeed wife's sister being a lega marriage. in the point of view in which the law makes a marri e legal or illegal all over the Domin on, it would be subject to this 127th clause. It would therefore be a void mar- riage in Quebec. as between persons of the Roman catholic faith. not merely void according to the doctrines of that Church. but civilly void, unless u Papal din action wu obtained. and he wu not at 00an whether it. would not nfleog thomcunbeq: ct uâ€"vwâ€"v- vv ..â€"â€".â€" __- the Anglican Churches. He thought they WI“- should not enact legislation which would pcmtuate a diversity. . Girouard said‘ the last speaker acknowledged that all the Provinces except Quebec were in the same position. He THO (Mr. Girouard) claimed that section 92 of the British crth America Act. giving the A Local Legisl tures authority over the ccle- 1‘“ bration of marriage, must always prevent ‘8“ uniformity of the marriage laws. His 30“] main reason for making the change from “1° the form of the Bill was to meet the views, WW 0! the Senators and secure the passage of 3 and the Bill in that Chamber. He had also‘°n imade the change of striking -out the‘The authority for a woman to marry her “0°! deceased husband's brother, which change 1““ had been asked for by the hon. member 0‘ b‘ himself (Mr. Blake). also with a view to and securing a majority in the Senate. 90‘ Sir John Macdonald said he had not bes1 charge of the Bill, but his hon. friend who end had was desirous of carrying it through in “V this aha a rather than in that proposed in five 1880. he reason he gave that it was more ‘1" certain in this shape to ass the Senate h°F and becomelaw was s cient to secure Th' his (Sir John's) support. He did not bus believe with the leader of the Opposition “P that the distribution of the jurisdiction #‘9‘ between the Federal and Local Parliaments “i V was to secure uniformitv in the marriage W“ laws so much as a matter of convenience. “W What constituted man and wife was we decided by the Federal Parliament; the to mode of making them man and wife be- “9' longed to the Local Legislatures.- a ° fir. Blake pointed out that there was a. difierence of opinion between the leader of the Govetnmbnt and the mover of the Bill as to the effect of it. Mr. McCueig moved that a. clause be added to the Bill as follows: “That any clergyman or minister of the Gospel authorized to perform the ceremony of marriage be not obliged 'to perform the ceremony it the women is e. eieter of the men’s deceased wife." 7 7 Sir John Maodonald said he did not know that there was a. law compelling clergyman to marry parties bearing the relation referred to m the Bill. so that the ola_u_se proposedyes no? necessary. 1,_,-J “71:5; {HQâ€"Egdifigrdf the Bill win ordered for to-morrow, the Bill in the meantime Ito begaprigtedfihowipg the apeannents. _._J Mr. Charlton, in moving the second reading of the Bill relating to offences against the person, said he had long felt that the criminal statutes were defective in regard to certain evils mentioned in the preamble of the Bill. The principles of the Bill were already embodied in the criminal statutes. which punish seduction .mder certain circumstances. He referred to the law 'rejerringjc seduction on hoard a vessel. He read a summary of the clauses of the Bill. showing that it pro- vided for the punishment of seduoers, and for women bringing an. action against her alleged seducer. He found a. similar Act in force in all the Northern States, as well as many others. The British Commis- sioners to inquire into the inveigling of English girls to the continent for the pur- pose of prostitution also recommended that seduction and adultery should be made punishable. He believed it was to the best interests of the people that such a law should be passed. and moved the second reading of the Bill. .c..,. “',L‘,m Cries of “ lost," “ carried." “ call in the members."

Dasha Oountymne hundred mileein len th. the deetitution is beyond description. be water has reached an unprecedented neight. and scarcely a farm-hhuse or residence on the bottom has escaped inundation. The people are compelled to build false floors in the houses or seek safety on higher lands, where in rudely-constructed camps of brush and cane they wait for starvation and death. It is appalling, and without Government aid liberally and quickly bestowed there is no telling where it will end. Man persons have been feeding on carcasses c drowned cattle. Three thousand ‘ five hundred ople in the county are utterly destitute. an the most sanguine hardly dare ‘ hope that the flood will an idebefore May. The Governor says the relief boards are busy distributing rations at all the avails. ble points throughout the overflcwed districts, but there are so many needy that ‘ it Will be almost impossible to supply their 1 wants in time to prevent sufi'ering. it not actual starvation. The generous people of the whole country may be appealed to for aid. No one without expe- rience of such a disaster can form a correct conception of it. Assistant Secre- tary of State McRae says the overflow has set Arkansas back‘ ten years. and it will be impossible to raise a crop on the over. flowed‘lands this year other than cotton. and that cannot be done unless the waters subside shortly. The effect of the over- flow will be to drive hundreds from the State. The colored eople in the over. flowed districts are a ready beginning to migrate to Tennessee and Missouri in large numbers. and others will follow whenever they can gethoats to carry them. L J_L-J ""1 'w- ovv~v~-~ H ~77”. A Little Rock (Ark) deepatoh, dated Sunday, says: Mr. H. H. Rathmore, of Philadelphia. arrived to-night fr In the overflowed country. He said to a r rter: Friday I went around the neighborth of Arkansas City on an inspecting tour. While rowing through the woods in a skiff we came upon a halt submerged log house. Rowing alongside of an upper window. we looked in. A man, his wife and two ohil. dren occupied the place. The man. upon being questioned. said : "We did not expect abreak in the levee. The other morning ‘we awoke and found water all around ‘the house. and that the floor was Ilifted. up by _ the _pressure. We â€"â€"â€"â€"â€"“v had no means. of efiecting an escape. As we live a long distance from the river we have no boats, and did not think that the flood would become so serious. I have been living here for ten years and have never before suffered any inconvenience from the water. I did not think it would become very deep. or We could have waded out at first. I was foolish enough to think the break in the levee had caused the over- flow, and that other breaks would occur shortly and distribute the water. but it kept on rising till we were forced to go up-stairs. For two days we have not had \ anything to eat. The water is gradually rising, and but for this timely deliverance we must soon have been drowned." ‘ DIRE DEVASTATION. We took this family to land about' ten miles distant and provided food. Going out in the skiff again we came upon a knoll where six or seven people had taken refuge. They had been driven from home. and unable to get out of the bottoms,‘ had remained on the little knell. although it could be but temporary relief, as starvation, if not flood, must soon come. An old man in dejection stood near the edge of the water and looked with inex- pressrble sadness out upon the great watery waste. He said his name was Marston and he had lived in the neighborhood for nearly ‘ twenty years. “ I was living with my daughter," he said. "The other night the flood rushed in upon us. We did not have time to make any arrangements. I called‘ to my daughter to follow me, but just then a swift current struck and bore me away. I heard my daughter scream, and I attempted to answer but strangled. I was borne on with the rapid waters. Striking a tree I seized hold of it and held on. Lifting my head above water I called my daughter. but the mighty rush of the waters was my only response. When daylight came I saw the entire country was flooded. I swam from the tree, and by accident reached the knoll.’r’m Our boat was again brought into use. The or people Were nearly starved. and when ood was given to them they ate rsvenously. There are hundreds of people who have not yet received Government aid. and their condition is so deplorable that something must be done. The Govern- ment. of course, is doing everything possible for the relief of the sufferers. but I tell you the sight of a. few supplies would be a glorious picture to a great msny people I have recently seen. Every man says the situation is indescribable. I can only repeat the expression: ' . c. , ,,,A-!_. AL- ie under water, 11.000 destitute pereone ere there.

He says no i ea 0! the true condition can be imagined. The country is a vast sea of water. and the people are utterly destitute and in a star 'ng condition. Hundreds are subsisting on parched corn.
