The Halyfax Chronicle does not find it convenient to. extend its paralel beâ€" tween the two men, in the last few years, especially into the events of the present year. This is the last proof of the hollowness and injustice of the whole comparison. * Another employe" writes angrily upon a letter which appeared in our correspondence of yesterday ; and modestly «* protests against @"youf (our) publishing" the said ‘letter * without contradiction‘‘â€"that is to say, without Another Employe‘s permission. We were not aware that our journalism had so lost its independence, or we should not have made the blunder. When we get convinced of the fact we will endeavor to learn submis sion to our frierd‘s dictation ; until then he must excuse the error of our ways. ‘As to the ** contradiction," which he assumes ought to have accompanied the publication of the charge of Femanism, we can hardly be conâ€" sidered blameable, since we were not cogni= able of the fact of its norâ€"existence in the deâ€" partments. There may, for aught we know, be employes who are Fenians, or there may not. â€" We made neither charge nor refutation, because we knew fothing or the truth on either side. We simply published the letter of a respectable correspondent, as we now publish that of Another Employe. â€" These Fenians give us a great deal of trouble. We heartily wish they were all in a warm climate.

They knew full well that the invaâ€" sion of Ireland was a sham; without a ship to carry over their forces; without the mere semblance of a navy these men could but know how impossible would be the passage oi the Atlantic, in the face of the most powerâ€" pil navy the world has ever known. Soabsurd is the projeci of invading Ireland from this side of the water that the wonder is that Irishâ€" men of the most ordinary intelligence could be foundGgo be gulled with sugh a story. _ Imâ€" mense s have doubtless been swindled out of the péor creatures, who have trusted and believed in the plausible scoundrels assumâ€" ing the high placesot theorgzanitation.

It is our most earnest hope that upon these leaders and the immediate agents the strictest justice should fall ; bgt still lel it be pustice in the fullest sense of the term ; let it not be said thatthe Canadian government and people were carried away by their amallâ€"souled vindictive ness, and that the government forgetful of its high trust pandered to a vengeful spirit that it might gain popularity.~ We are confident that the Cabinei will have too high a sense of what it owes to itself and is due to the country to be led away from the path of true dignity and justice by allowing any popular ery for wholesate vengeance upon the captured Fenâ€" imns to have the slightest influence upon its mction. Plenary powers have been placed in their hands in the most unhesitating manâ€". ner by the legislature, and it would, to onr‘ thinking at least, be a very sorry appreciation of _ the _ hign mm if _ its ‘ first _ referential act manifests an unworthiness to be entrusted with so great and irresponsible a power. We have no fear, however, of aty such occurâ€" rence. The gentlemen who form the personâ€" ne of the Ministry are neither inexperienced or reckless ; they have given earnest that their councile will be guided by sound judgment ; the advancement and wellâ€"being of the counâ€" try is their sole aim, and their known charâ€" acters afford the fullest assurance that justice and ‘mercy will go hand in hand in every act which may be necessary in the disposal of the Fenian prisoners. Let us all be guided by that divine sentiâ€" ment, so eloquently expressed by our great in the hope that as we forgive so shall we, er, be forgiven. «« qu‘hyd.uqhmltsh’i; Itdnrclhuth.flhnhbâ€"hun-, Upon the place beneath : it is twice bless‘d ; !;;M&‘mflmflfl:mm: mightiest mightiest ; it becomes The throned monarch better than his crown : His sceptre shows the force of temporal power, Doctors will differ, and patients die, is quite a natural conclusion, and that there has been a great difference of opinion expressed about us Canadians» during the recent Fenian row, cannot be gainsgid ; still it is refreshing to find occassionally an honest .‘xmd_qflu.omilh ‘.;h.-. from a sstract from the Worley corteepondencs, writion at « In this connection, permit me to correct a few misâ€" statements and misappfehensions induiged in by some New York papers and .their a-n:m, ovorthyomoumiuuuulhhl& t:-‘h:-. der. mowmrfiumb a t book, as he is and has been in a puh.t:. lJb.â€" sides, has made it his study thoroughly to underâ€" stand the temper of the Canadian people.

To shoot these men down in the field was the duty of every true Canacdâ€" ian ; but the fight being over, ‘victory shines brightest when illimei by the halo of mercy, â€" Vengeance is the attribute of tyranâ€" ny and cowardice, and . would ill become a young and rising country, in the fledgling state of its military prowess. . The aspirations of Canada to a nationality worthy of the parâ€" ent stock would be sadly dimmed by a vinâ€" dictiveness that all noble natures for=wear, and of which petty malice too often finds a recoil. It would be most undignified for Canada to ,pursue x vengeful ‘policy towards the delM wretches who have »fallen into her power. â€" Let the sternest justice await the leaders and plutters of the invasion; they have had= only the single object of their own personal gain ; they knew that longer inaction would be fatal to their schemes ; they had discovered that some new delusion was necessary to bring in the subscriptions of their dupes, and Canada af merit, but simply as an instance of a modera tion which none of us expected to see exercised. This forbearance might have been policy ; it might have no further merit than a scheme to make converts to the cause ; it might have arisen from fear of provoking the deadly venâ€" geance of an outraged people ; bat, from whatâ€" ever motive their violence was restrained where, tor the time at least, .it could have been perpetrated with impunity, the fact that many of our border settlers auffered le«s than was to be apprehended deserves to be recorded as an anomaiuos incident of one of the most senseless and wanton aggressions that in these latter days has disgraced human civilization. * « Canadians then, I wish to say agnin to all those whom it may concern, mmum are not seared.

In view of the recent troublesome events he felt the Government had need of the best support of every true patriot, and he hoped they would so order their measures as to assure continued peace and prosperity to the country. (Hear, hear.) Without admitting the propriety of what was said in the Resolution in regard of Confederation he would nevertheless offer the subject no further opposition, (Hear, hear,) nor would he propose any other amendment. in view of the condition of that question he thought the Government needed all the help they could get so as to conduct the matter to a successful issue. (Hear, hear.) _He rejoiced as much as any one couldat the fine spirit disâ€" played by the Volunteers at Fort Eric: ‘True some of them haq sacrificed their lives for their country, but theirmemory would be held in grateful ‘remembrance and their names be an honor to their families in all future time. He understood that they were mostly young men, and that the corps which had borne the brunt of the fight belonged to the University of Toronto. If so they would ever be an honâ€" or to that Institution, and the people would I no doubt see in the valor they had displayed, | that education taught men their duty to their country as well as other knowledge. We were also called upou to rejoice at the completion of the Houses of Parliament, but this for one he could ‘not : do. _ They were too fine, too large and too costly. (Hear, hear.) ‘Then we were desired to express our satisfaction with the prosperous commercial condition of the Province, but before we could do this we | must have facts before us which we had not now. ‘Then finlcdcnfion was alluded to as near accompl mntimd from passing events he supposed it was likely to be so. Well he had not helped to bring this about, and what l he had once thought about it he still thought toâ€"day, but the thing being done it was useless | to complain.. He hoped that if the Governâ€" ment proposed to treat of the constitution of the Local Governments this Session they would submit the schemes at an early dayâ€"the sooner the better. It they adjourned that they would adjourn to a later day than was at first proposed, as during the summer the members were better at home than here. _ The Hon. Mr. ALEXANDER said, every hon. member of this honorable house will naturally desire, before proceeding to discuss this subjoct mautter in the speech from the throne, to allude to the nefarions outrages reâ€" cently committed on our frontier, which have been met with such admirable projmptitude, by our own patriotic volunteers, and the miliâ€" tary authorities of the country. It was unâ€" necessary to dwell upon the character of the Fenian organization, properly designed by the New York press as the scum and refuse of their populdtion, banded togetherâ€"for‘ plunder and perhaps in the hope of disturbing the friendly relations at present existing, between the two governments, In both tkeir objects they had failed, and it wasgratifying to observe the United States Government, although late in the day, now taking proper measures to rcâ€" press this extraordinary infraction of our inters national laws, within their ownâ€" ‘Lerritory. While we all deeply deplore the loss of life and suffering, caused by this invasion, it has called forth a spirit of resistence, of self reliance and of valor, such as has seldom been evinced by any country taken thus by surprise. (Hear.) I am sure that we cannot speak iMWtoo high terms of the conduct of our volunteers, (hear, hear,) for the most part young men of industriâ€" ous pursuits, some of them holding valuable! appointments, who, when the emergency arose, dm not hesitate to sink all private consideraâ€" tions, and rushed at once to the frontier in the country‘s defence, and I am sure that.] express the feeling of the people, when I say that Parâ€" liament, ought in some way to acknowledge the great services they have rendered. (Hear, hear.) Weall know how our excellent volunâ€" teers have gone on steadily, under many dis. couragements, acqairing proficiency in drill. They have in the most commendable manner, worked out their own position, (hear,) and 1 ask the Government, might not our cities and the valuable homsteads of our farmer; been plundered to any extent, but for the valorous efforts of our young volunteers. (Hear, hear.) It was indeed a most fortunate thing, that at this critical moment, we had at the head of the Militia Department, Col. McDougall, an officer éminently qualified for this position, combinâ€" ing large military experience, with sound judgâ€" ment. (Hear hear.) Who, with theivery able counsel ot.one, whom, from his distingui hed position, it is not parliamentary to name planned the whole defence, in so quict, and effective a manner, as to allow all public anxiety, and we should not omit to mention the valuable services rendcred by Lieut, Col. Taylor the Assistant Deputy Adjutaut General in the West. The crisis through which we have just passed must serve to show how unâ€" wise it would be to leave such a country as this, without a Jm)per organization of the militia, It would indeed be a blind economy to leave éxposed such a Province as this to be ravaged in the manner it has just: been threatened, from now henceforward, the quesâ€" tion of defence must receive the best consideraâ€" tion of the government. While we have to consider what would be a fair and just and liberal encpuragement to give to our excellent volunteer force, I would venture to suggest that we should not delay any longer to officer the Battalions of the Militia throughout the Province with men _ properiy qualified or who have reccived â€" certificates from the _ Military _ Schools. Why _ should this not be done at once? And there are other suggestions of a practical character which it would be neces sary for Parliament to decide. But this slight disturbancc of the peace must not prevent our entering upon the consideraâ€" tion of all the other great questions affecting the material growth of the country. We are especially called upon at this moment, to conâ€" sider the whole commercial position, how and where Wwe can most effectually secure markets for all our surplus produce, and how we can increase in every possible way the facilities of trade. Never were the prospects of this Province better, than :I:xdlu now, (hear, hear,) If we have only ent commercial enterprize, to carry our own surplus produce to the markets of the wosld, instead of demndlllg upon others to do so. â€" (Hear, hear;) The Hon. member hzuendad.t considerable length to explain his views as to the Commercial Policy which should be adopted by the government in reqard to American produce comil;“ in, maintaining that while everything should be done to encourage and sustain the Agricultural industry of the country, there must be a permanent andreliable policy in regard to all our import manufactures which have progressâ€" ed and prospered in so large a degree within * Tow: fEkE®. :: >>~â€"â€" > inlnpmetiins Hon.

Mr. MOORE said, he had no doubt the Imperial Government had made the proper representations on the subject of the Fenian outrages to the Government of the United States, through their Ambassador at Washingâ€" ton, and he believed it would be found that it was in consequence of such representations, that the latter had taken the measures of reâ€" pression which had already been so effectual. ‘The President had issued a proclamation and authorized the General Commanding in the North (General Meade) to see to it, that a stop be put to further marauding incursions. ‘The United States were fully nmwd&n the necesâ€" sity of maintaining peace with (Great Britain, and were acting in good faith. ‘They sheuld receive credit for what they had done, and he had good reason to believe their action would i. One thing he could vyouch for and that was the undoubted loyalty of the country. He had known the men of Canada to be called out to support British rule on more than one 00â€" casion, and he had invariably seen the greatest loyalty evinced. ‘The desire for a continuance of Bnitish connection was strong in the minds of the people. No one thought of annexation to the United States, and he knew that some by such means. The object of the Commisâ€" sioners was to give and receive information, and it would be for the parties engaged in business to avail themselves of it, and to push their trade. He believed that opportunities were opening to Canada, of which she could take ad vantage, and that many things produced in this country which were supplied through the States to the West Indies, on account of their greater proximity, could hereafter be supplied directly and on better terms. Buthe had risen to notice a topic which had not been alluded to in the Speech of His Excelâ€" lency, and which he thought it desirable should not be overlooked. He desired to be informed whether procecedings had been taken by our Government to call the attention of the Government, and through them the attention of the United States, to the events which had been‘occrruing there for some time past, and which had recently issued in an invasion of our soil and:the loss of several valuable lives. ‘I‘wo years ago he had called the attention of the Government to the organization then exâ€" isting, and suggested that representation should be made to the Imperial Government with the view of putting a stop to the threatened invaâ€" sions on the part of citizens of the United States of a country at peace with that Govâ€" ernment, It was positively unsupportable that we should constantly be exposed to trouble and danger from t{eu lawless men, and it is veryâ€" desirable they should be put down once for all, for if merely checked for the moment, and then allowed to prepare for some more convenient opportunity of harrassing us, we should be in a state of continual discomâ€" fort. If we could not follow these evil dis posed men ourselves to the United States, it surely became the duty of Great Britain to take up the subjectin an earnest manner and see what remedy could be nl:rlicd. The United States might be very well disposed towards us, but a proper disposition was not sufficient acâ€" tion. _ If they alleged they had not the power torepress these men it would be necessary to inquire fwhat other means could be used to effect the purpose, but he believed that if the Government of St James made proper repreâ€" sentations the desired results would be reached. If the disturbances continued then it would be an indication that the American Governâ€" ment were not inclined to cultivate friendly relations. <Things could not go on as they were now, and we could not consent to be threatened year by year by an organized body of lawless men on pretence of injustice sufferâ€" ed in another connt?. The Irish in Lower Canada were s well disposed, he believed, as any other class of Volunteers to come forward and defend their adopted country. He believâ€" ed that if anexample were made ard several more lives were forfeited by the invaders of our shores, a stop would be put such attempts. He mather thought it was a misfortune that no greater opportunity had been afforded to our volunteers and regular troops to teach these adventurers a severe lesson, but they kept close to the border, and when pursued retreatâ€" ed where we could not follow them. When it was remembered how Canada had behaved when the Southern raiders invaded the Ameriâ€" can territory, how Parliament voted the money taken from the Banks, and how we exerted ourâ€" sclves to prevent the recurrence of such inâ€" cursions, he thought we had a right to exâ€" pect the American Government would interâ€" fere to prevent the enactment of such out rages as we had recently experienced at the bands of the Fenians. He boped to hear from the Government that steps had been hkcn’lo secure the country from such outrages in fuâ€" ture. be effectual. Indeed he thought the lesson the Fenians had learned, would be gufficient to preevnt their making any otherattempt of this kind in future. . tion of the freest commercial system. â€" For one, he would be sorry that Canada should follow the exam ple of the United States in its restricâ€" tive commercial policy. He would : favor the greatest possible freedom, and as far as possiâ€" bie, remove allexisting restrictions. If the Minister of Finance would follow . such a policy, as far as practicable, he (Mr. McPherâ€" son) was sure he would bave the sympathics and approval of a large majority of the country. â€" This was the true policy for Canada. Let all be done that could: be done to encourâ€" age and to make this a cheap country to live in, and the consequences would be of the most beneficial chargeter, We ought to be well able to compete with the United States in this matter,. The expense of living there at this time was greater than in almost any other country, â€" and although they might up to . the . present, have escaped _ any Scrious _ inconvenience. from _ the greatly increased debt and taxes, owing to their redundant currency, the time would assuredly come when the pressure would be severely felt, and as assuredly would this prevent emiâ€" gration thither, 1t should be ou: endeavor to make Canada as cheap a place to live in as possible, and if we did this we would, of a cerâ€" tainty, attract a large population. He believed the true commercial policy was to reduce the tariff of customs dutics to the lowest practicable point, and although the country had need:of a large revenue, these reductions would give an expansion to trade and commerce,which would more than compensate for such reduction. If we could dispense with theâ€"customs tariff altoâ€" gether ; if, for instance, Cn\tin were one grand extendcd free port, he believed that a stream of commerce, greater and more enriching than the most sanguine could now anticipate, would flow through the country. If it were possible to arrange our fiscal system so as to derive our revenue from more direct sources, the country would realize a larger measare of prosperity than can be hoped for under our present #ysâ€" tem. He did not advocate the rushing into sudden and violent changes, but he desired to recommend reduction of duties to the Governâ€" ment, as the policy to be hercafter kept in view, and as speedy an approach to perfectly free trade as.â€"possible, Our manufactures even then should flourish, for with the burthen of taxationâ€"and cost of jabor in the United States, it is impossible they can compete with us. _ In Engiand the price of money is greatly enhanced, and inall probability it will be Iong before it will be as cheap as in years past. This, with the cost of transportation, and other charges, should be sufficient protection to our manufactures, and he had no doubt that all of them suited to the.country wouid â€"prosper. Present cireumstances favored the adoption of a sound commercial and fiscal system, and it certainly was not the interest of the country to f)ster monopolies which eventically proved detrimental to the public, and had to be overâ€" turned. Hon. Mr. BUREAU (who was not distinctly hcard) thought that so long as the United States encouraged their manufactures, by bounâ€" ties or draw backs, Canada could not compete with thein,. He expected that when the duties between the several. Provinces, to be united under the Confederation,. were equalized> a considerable impulse would be given to trade ; but, to foster manufactures, some degree of protection was necessary. Even in England some degree of protection was afforded under certain circumstances. Hon, Mr., RYAN said it was not his purpose to introduce extrancous matters, as commerce and manufactures, or to speak in relation to the proposed extension of our trade with other countries. He was satisfied that the Report of the Commissioners would soon be laid beâ€" fore the House, as it was in a forward state of preparation, and at any rate, now was not the time to give information on that subject, He hoped, however, that the mission of the Comâ€" missioners would be of advantage to the comâ€" merce of the country, but still it would not be wise to form exaggerated expectations from the visit, as it was not in the nature of things that a sudden revolution should be produced __ Returns.

He recollected Toronto when it was a mere wilderâ€" nessâ€"when the west side of it was all trees and now it has a large population, broad and busy streets, afinc harbour, and magnificent public buildings. It was a source of gn:%t satisfaction to him to know that the people ‘Of this advancing country when caled upon to defend it had always done & with alacrity and with effect ; and be felt proud to believe that we should never want the aid of old England, Whatever individuals here or elsewhere might say he believed that the integrity of the empitre will be maintained, A word about Confederaâ€" tion. _ He thought it most desirable that Conâ€" federation should take place, as by that means the wealth of the country would more and more increase, and he did not believe and hoped that the country would not suffer from the abrogation of the Reciprocity Treaty, which was not the result of inutility to the United States, but of an unfriendly feeling towards Great Britain for her conduct during the Amâ€" crican Civil War. He was perfectly desirous to remain on terms of amity with his neighbors and thought they ought to be indebted to Engâ€" land instead of displeased with her for her forâ€" bearance and neutrality during the last war.

After several petitions had been presented, the Speaker placed before the House a return of the Montreal Saving‘s Bank. Pr‘,flnluj the Address. Hon, Sir N\ F. BELLEAU reported that His Excellency the Governor General, would reâ€" ceive the Address in answer to the épcech from the throne, toâ€"morrow at halfâ€"past 3 o‘clock at his office in town. Hon. Sir N. F. BELLEAU said that with regard to the matter ullm}cd to by the hon. member from Montreal, (Mon. Mr. Ryan), which that hon. member thought should have been embodied in His Excellency‘s speech from the throne, viz. : as to the representations made to the Government at Washington, on the subject of the Fenian invasioas of our soil, he felt at liberty to state that the subject had been brought under the attention of the Imâ€" perial Government, and, he had no doubt, that the British Ambassador at Washington had made the proper representations to the Amerâ€" ican Government, Jt is probable that to these representations we may to some extent attriâ€" bute the recent measures of the Amecrican Goâ€" vernment in arresting the progress of the misâ€" guided men in question, and he further hoped and believed we would not be molested by them any more. * * Hon. Mr. BULL said it was not his ‘intenâ€" tion to say anything whatever on the resoluâ€" tion before the House, as thére was no differâ€" ence of opinion on the subject; but he could not allow to pass without a word an invidious distinction made between our volunteers, when all have done so well, and have successfully driven the invaders from our soil. _ The Queen‘s Own and the University Company have been the only troops mentioned, and he did not wish to pull one flower from the wreath of glory to which they were entitled ; but if they were the first in the field, he beâ€" lieved there were other volunteers that were the last _ He trusted that until the whole hisâ€" tory of the fight is known no distinction will be made in Parliament between the volunteers engaged in the battle of Ridgeway, convinced as he was that all the voluntcers have done their duty well. The resolution was then put and carried unâ€" animously, and the usual formalities of preparâ€" ing an address to His Excellency founded thereon were observed. + June 13th, 1866. The SPEAKER took the chair at 3 o‘clock After routine, The House then adjourned until toâ€"morrow The House then adjourned First Reading. Hon. J. 8. MACDONALD seconded the motion, which he said had been so appropriâ€" ately introduced by the Attorney General West, From personal‘and political acquainâ€" tance of long standing with the lute member for North Wentworth, Mr. Notman, he (Mr. Macdonald) was able to speak to the excelâ€" lence . of his character both in public and private life. Mr. Notman was born in 1805, in Scutland, came to Canada in 1821, and in 1837, he (Mr. M.) knew him As an active and efficient velunteer in defence of the instiâ€" tutions of our country. . He had through lite been a man of thorough loyalty, and had orâ€" ganized and for many years kept up at his own expense an efficient company of artillery at Dundas, in the county he had so long repâ€" resented. ‘ He was returned to Parliament in 1847, and there, as perhaps the Attorneyâ€"Genâ€" eral West might reimember, had taken an acâ€" tive part in the debates of the Oxford clection case, and ably vindicated the purity of election. In 1854 he was defeated, but was again returnâ€" ed in 1857, and though he did not take freâ€" quent part in the debates of the House, he was a good speaker, his enanciation being clear and forcible. As & politician, he had been consistent throughout his career, and though he respected the old adage which declared that we should say nothing but good of the dead, yet he did not think there was a member of this House, or a man in the country,who could justly cast a reproach upon the character, public or private of the late Mr. Notman., (Hear, hear.) Now that the Constitution was to be torn away under which they had so long worked, when a uew era was to dawn upon us, and a new Constitution was to replace the old, he might be pardoned if he referred bricfly to the memâ€" bers that had composed the several Parliaâ€" ments.| Since the Union, of the 84 elected to the first Parliament in 1841â€"43 were dead, 41 alive, but none of them now in this Houseâ€"of those returned in 1844, there were three memâ€" bers now present, who had since that date continued to sit in the House, the Hon. Attorâ€" ney Geaeral West, the member for Montmorâ€" enci (Mr.Cauchon,) and himself (Mr. J. 8. Macdonald.) Of the Parliament returned at the general election in 1847 there were now in the House the three members a‘ready named, and the hon. member for Peelosflou. J. H. Cameron,) and towards the close of that Parâ€" liament the Hon. Attorney General East and the Hon. Finance Migister we.e returned to the House. Of those returned at the general election in 1851. there wers ten members now present. (Mr. McDonald also gave the figures as to how many were alive Hon. Mr. BOSSE, gave notice that on Friday next, he would move for an address to His Exâ€" cellency, praying for a detaifed statement of all the expense incurred to this day, in the erection ‘of the Parliament Buildings and Deâ€" partmental Buildings, in the City of Ottawa ; also a statement of the sums required to finish the said buildings, and furnish them completely; also,a statement of the amount that will be required annually for warming and lighting the buildings, and for wages, and other necesâ€" sary cxpenses for the preservationand mainteâ€" nance of the said buildings.

First Reading. Hon.

BELLEAU replied that the circumstances toâ€"day were the same as yesterâ€" day, The Government had always been ready to give full explanations, but bad decmed it but courtcous to await the coming of Hon.

Hon.

McKenzie, He would not underâ€" take to make any lengthened remarks on the merits and virtues of the deceased gentlemen, for that duty could be better discharged by other members, who from personal intimacy and association, had perhaps better means of doing them justice. He would only say that they had been respected and useful members of this House, and he asked .now that this House should pay the respect due to their meâ€" mory by adjourning for toâ€"day. \ * Explanations» 4 Hon. Mr. LE TELLIER again inquired whether the Government intended to give exâ€" planations regarding the changes which had taken place in the personne/. In his opinion, it was highly necessary these explanations should be given at the carliest moment, for it might be that some hon. members who supâ€" ported the Governinent would not accept them as sufficient. On their return the Speaker stated that he had presented the address, to which His Exâ€" cellency had replied in the following terms : Hox.
