Mr. Borden’s speech was a beautiful tri- bute to the zeal and fidelity of the French-Canadian clergy. Several members-of the Liberal side tried to ‘provoke a rancorous debate, but, on ithe 'whole, the discussion was good- ‘tempered. ' COL. HUG-HES EXPLAIN S. Col. Sam. Hughes (Victoria. and Heliburton) made an explanation in regard to an interjection he made the other day whilst Mr. Laverg'ne was discussing the bringing of the evicted priests from France to this country. Col. Hughes had remarked that these men would be acurSc to the country. .and he now made an explanation as to what he meant by the words. He made no retractions, but he said he would be the last manque offer an insult to the French race. “I happen,” said Col. Hughes. “to belong to the French race my- self.” (Laughter.) Col. Hughes. however, repeated that he claimed to have as good French blood running through his veins as had any other member. He, however, quoted the words of Daniel Defoe from “l‘he Trueborn Englishman” : “Of all the ills by which mankind is {or I’Islet, obfiazted to ' the observa- tions of Col.
