I Ottnvvn. May 27.â€"Before a crowded Rouse yesterday Mr. Contlgnn explained lils menus for leaving the ranks of the Conservative party and supporting the Government. Sir Charles Tupper, in a somewhat bitter speech, criticized the course of his late colleague. The Drum- mond County debate was then resumed, and continued until after midnight, its principal feature being a two-hours' speech by Sir Charles Topper. Mr. Morin delivered one of his very rare but decided- ly entertaining speeches. At 12.80 am. the resolution was adopted without a vote. The Canada Life bill was also adopted. “r. Contignn’a Statement. On the orders of the day being called, Hon. John Cootlgnn (Victoria. N.B.) said he felt compelled in justice to himself and friends to make a statement rendered necessary by certain newspaper articles which attributed to him improper motives for his change of seat and change of attitude towards the present leaders of the Conservative party. He then replied to the attack of The Evening Telegram ' (the paper of the hon. member for East Toronto. Mr. John Ross Robertson), and said that the only time the old Conserva- tive party was in opposition was when Sir John Mncdonald resigned in 1873 up to the time he resumed power in 1878. During that time he had given proof of his fidelity to the Conservative party beyond the possibility of cavil of The Evening Telegram of Toronto. He asked if it was fair that the hon. member (Mr. John Ross Robertson) should attack him in his paper when he had the opportunity of doing so in the House of Commons. Speaking of the cartotms of that paper, he remarked that “the Nb advantage that man has is. that it is out 'of my power to retaliate, for there is no artist thiscontlnent who can that gentleman's ce that will not be flattering to hter.) He then replied to The Mail and Empire's remarks upon his course by reading what Sir John Macdonald said of blslmving “rotted“ in 1884 in reply to the inquiries made by Mr. Blake on the subject The interview (1 Empire with Sir Charles Topper next claimed his attention. He' :barged that Sir Charles had ruined the Conservative party, and said: “The day he sailed from England. and especially from the day he landed in Canada. the doom of an honest Government and the leadership of an honest man was sailed. The fate of Sir Mackenzie Bowoll’s Gov- ernment was sealed.

Sir Charles Tapper, in reply, said he the course taken by the hon. ho had just taken his seat. y. not for the Conservative party, but for his (Mr. Costignn‘s) own salve in the position he had attained in this country. He thought the member for Victoria should have made the statement when, in fact, he stood up and voted against. his old Ministerial col- leagues and party. He had not broken the peace until the hon. gentleman had gone to the press of this country with his story. and then he Wits bonndbto indicate thecauses of his defection.
