sentatives, and the very necessities of the po sition wiil cumpel even Mr, Hows, if he looks forwanl to a cureer of tuture usefulness, to abandon the narrow Provincialism which affects to know nothing, or care nothing, the policy of the Governntent. Th# meaâ€" sures which have been suggested, in the Speech, and which will, no doubt, be brought down in due course, will be considered on ‘their merits. But as Mr, Hows has declared that be and his friends can have no terms with the Government ; that the Government ean give them nothing which they can acâ€" eept with honor, it is by no meavsdifficult to unagine that the Ministerial policy will be reviewed with a severity of criticism very much akin to that which we have hitherto been accustomed to look for trom the regular Opposition. Theisolation of the Nova Scoâ€" tis party from participation in what they term Canadian poliuecs caunot always be maintained. . In every question of a general character Nova Scotia has an interest no lessthan any one of the other Provinces, and the attempt to perpetuate Nova Scotia poliâ€" tics, or New Brunswick politics, or Upper Canada and Lower Canada politics, in the wider area of political action on which our public men are compelied to labor will be witterly futile and sbortive. The common s#use of the country will rise against such .‘ prostitution of talent on the part of its repreâ€" Pending that ‘discussion Mr. Howz dis avows for himself the leadersiup of any poliâ€" tigal party outside his own Province ; he disâ€" avows for himself and his followers political «lliance with the ins and the outs, except in «o far as the latter might be disposed to help his Province out of Confederation. In this wenise it is not atall improbable that the Que bee Opposition may be disposed to give the weight of theirâ€" vote in favor of his amendâ€" ment. . There are some, too, in Ontario who might in perfect consistency with their past action in Parliament support his view, since. they may very fairly be allowed ton‘mum{ the course which they themselves had reâ€" sommended had not been adopted. But beâ€" youd this there is the consideration of respeot for accomplished facts ; the knowledge, that in three out of the four Provinces, public opinion has overwhelmingly endorsed the Union policy and sustained the men who carâ€" vied it. Will those members, who regard their responsibulity to the whole country, even though they may still believe that it would have been expedient to have appealed to the people on this question, aftirm now, that because of the result of the elections in Nova Seotia the passing of the British North Ameriâ€" ca Bill by the Imperial Pathament has been a | mistake ? _That really is the question raised by Mr. How_®‘s promised amendment, and it will be hard indeed for any one who is preâ€" pared to accept Confederation, even on trial, to justify his condemmation of the wanner in which it was accomplished. _ The amendment being disposed of, Mr, Hows and his friends have reserved to them selves the utmost treedom of action in respec * ChcOttewaCimes argued out in the proper quarter sertion as based upon a. fallacy, common e-byudmmuuonhhmw thut since the grievance is one beyond our reach to remedy, we may permit it to be Taz attitude of the Hon..Josekru Hows amd his tollowers towards the, Government, and the relations they would hold to other . political parties represented in the Canadian â€" Parliament, have excited no little interest and â€"a very great deal of newspaper dis cussion. In this light the matter of Mr. How_‘s most eloquent address on Friday evening is valuable in clearing up many of the points which before were in doubt,. It ‘ would be a waste of space to discuss the arâ€" ; guments which Mr. Howsz has urged, and others of his way of thinking may still urge, ou the floor ot Parliament, on the score of injustice to Nova Scotia, regarding the rhanâ€" ner in which the Confederation scheme was carried, from its inception.to the third readâ€" ing of the Bill in the House of Lords, with onâ€" ly ten Peers of the realm present, and they for all we know, not very deeply interested in _ it. Nor need we here refer to the many inâ€" consistencies involved in the line of argument adopted to prove that the rights of Nova Scoâ€" tim have been sacrificed ; for if an appeal is made to the Imperial Parliament, and the question reopened, we all know that it is quite competent for the Imperial Legislature to repeal the Act, and say to the Coloniesâ€" *«‘ as you were;" and we all, or nearly all, believe that it is just about the last thing which the Imperial Parliament is likely to do. The Nova Scotia grievance is not one against the Legislature of the Dominion, but } agninst the Legislature of the Empire,; and | though Mr. Hows has elsewhere expressed himself willing to see the Imperial Parliament | , assume the legislative control of the aftairs of | / Nova Scotia and all the Colonies, he has a |, decided objection to its having delegated Chat | ; power to the Parliament of the Dominion in | ; which his own Province enjoys "a far lurger | . wamerical representation than he eould claim, | or expect to receive, in the Parliament of the | Empire: This case must therefore be settled | i with the Imperial Parliament, and it becomes us, who have no fear of the result of Imperial | interference, to abstain from all irritating disâ€" | $ eussion in relation to it. _ Mr. Hows %ays he | t has been legislated out of his country ; we | b eaunot legislate him back into it, even if we : were willing; and though we regard his as | n Hre Excerrexcry the Goversxor Gzeyerar will hold a levee, at the State Department in the East wing of the Government Buildâ€" imgs, on Saturday aiternoon next, at two w‘clock, the official announcement of which will be found elsewhere.

Our citrsens have, since the meeting of Parliament, been put to some inconvenience en account of the inadequate supply of gas. It is expected, however, that the main pipe being laid down for the supply of the Legisâ€" lative Buildings will be completed toâ€"day, so that by toâ€"motrow evening both Parliament and the City will have a full supply. ot " golds and silters‘‘ would be altogether reâ€" |pngunt to every preconceived notion of | money ; but when, aa must undoubtedly be "th fuct, our currency will mamly retain a representative character, either mediately or immediately, . of the precions. metalsâ€" as representing so much gold, .or so much national or other debt, ultimately payâ€" able in goldâ€"the nomenclature of our corâ€" respondent would throw us out ot our caleuâ€" lations with all the world beside, and do vioâ€" lence to all our own established notions conâ€" cerning the expression of value. Our own notion about reforming and wnifying the curâ€" rency is, that our dollar shouid be made an exact measure of the value of oneâ€"fiith of the pound sterling, or English sovereign, there. by placing our currency in harmony with that of the parent state, and so far reducing the actnal value of every denomination of our coins, as to prevent any danger of an un* due influx of foreign coms, of a like denomiâ€" nation, to the loss and embarrassment of onur localtrade. Ensewiner® we publish a letter from J. H. Honsos,‘ of Bediord, N. S., on the subject of an uniform currency for . â€" Some six or eight weeks ago, npm. letter from this gentleman with some editorial remarks on the system as then proposed. Our cor respondent has probably not seen our issue containing his letter, and as e are desirous ot cultivating the acquaintance of our friends by the seaâ€"shore we insert his second epistle, and shall perhaps take another opportunity of referring to the subject. In the meantime we may remark that his translateable nomenclaâ€" ture for the currency is utterly outlandish. Even were our currency to be in coins, which it never will be exclusively, ‘were the mines of Madoc exhausted of all their wealth, to talk If this reciprocity in tarift, in liew: of reciâ€" procity by way of a free exchange of goods, should beresolved upon by the Legislature, will not the Nova Scotians have gained a very substantial advantage by having been "legisâ€" ** lated out of their country ?"* of steam colliers, Canada would take our coal to the extent ot nearly a million of tons anâ€" nually. ‘The moment the United States abro< gate or modify their duty, let us do the same." " If the latter country persists in imposing a duty of $1.50 a ton on our coal, this tact seems to force us in justice to do the same with them. American coal is now admitted tree into Canada, while Nova Scotia conl is heavily taxed in the United States. Here is an exigency which cries out for relief, and the only available relief at present is, that the Doâ€" minion Government should protect its own .lltudl._lo the extent that the Americans proâ€" tect theirs, in the particular articles which both alike produce and consume. By this means, and with proper facilitics in the shape Tuz advocates of reciprocity cannot conâ€" sistently be the opponents of retaliation. The latter is in fact but another mode of acâ€" complishing the former, and if the Americans are still in favor of legislative reciprocity they will evidently find supporters, with reâ€" apect to onefparticular article of cmmerce, in Nova Scotia. Here is a case in point, well stated by the Halitax Ezxpress of the 4th inst., in an article on the tarift : Tax action of the House ot Commons, with respect to the Parliamentary Saloon, on Friâ€" day afternoon, was we understand practical and decisive. It was resolvéd that the sale or serving of beer, wine, spirits, or any other inioxicating liquor, is wholly prohibited withâ€" in the precinets of the Legislature. This decision will be universally applauded, and ought, we think, to be. fully carried out. _ It. is.not a subject on which it is necessary to enter upon a lengthened discussion. It is quite enough to say that under the old system exâ€" perience has proved that the evils outweighâ€" ed the advantages, and that being conceded the wisdom of the degision of the House is fully established. This resolution will not, of course, prevent the supply of such refreshâ€" ments as may be necessary to sustain the bodily strength of Members during a protractâ€" ed sitting, when the requirements of public business might render it inconvenient for them to leave the precinets of Parliament ; but it ~will have the ‘effect of ‘preventing strangers from distracting Members from their atténdance in the House, to gossip, and, perhaps, do something worse, JJown stairs. The arrangement will, therefore, we helieve, give general satisfaction. or _ interfere _ with â€" nothing, _ beyond | “-" geographical limits of. the p‘rticular: E division of the country of which accident or | good fortune may have made him a repreâ€"| _ | sentative. | For these reasons we regard it as not im { probable that Mr. Hows may find himself | under the necessity of practically playing the roleâ€"which in theory h@disavows. As holdâ€" ing the views the furthest removed from those of the Government, Ife will necessarily be led more frequently into collision vith them. The other sections ot the Opposition, all equally, and we have no doubt as sincerely, disavowing the intention to follow x factious course, will be compelled to choose between | his policy and that of the Government, and we very much mistake the temper of his | speech of Friday evening, it he: does not so | comport himself in the future as to leave the | Antiâ€"Ministerial party of Quebec and Ontario as hittle reason as possible for severing from | himself and his friends on a vote of the |! House. It is of course our desire, above all | things, that members on both sides should be | Unionists, whether they happen to be Minisâ€" | ! terialists or the reverse, and though for a time | ! our Nova Scotia friends may‘ endeavor to | * wrap themselves in their own exclusiveness, ‘: we console ourselves with the reflection that | " practically they are not unprepared to take & full share of the responsibihties incident to : their new position.

At this period of the stsâ€" sion it was impossible to «pply to Parliament ; and at any other time it would be hopeless to do so without more facts and information than was in the possession of the Government. It was, therctore, desirable that the Government should institute an active, rigid, and searching inquiry into the financial prospects and the actual condition of the railways in IrelandPfor this purpose. ‘The Government, under the exâ€" isting Acts, had considerable powers, but a ‘ short Act would be brought in to cnable it to institute measures with the fullest powers, and he hoped the Government by next session would be in the possession of the fullest aud most accurate information, whether it was deâ€" cided to purchase or to lease â€" the railways in ‘ Ireland. I | __ The Irish Railways, ‘ Un going into Committce of Bupply, My. Monsell, after drawing attention to the [ condition of the Irish railways, stated that the Commission had ascertained that, at 20 years‘ purchase for the ordinary shares, and 22 years‘ for the preference sharcs, the market value of all the Irish railways at the present time was about 19} millions sterling. He also showed that it was desirable the Irish railways should be taken up by the Government, and that they: could be advantageously worked by it in the manner and under the conditions suggested by the koyal Commission. He asked, in concluâ€" sion, whether the Governimnent intended to preâ€" pose any measure for the consolidation of the Irish railway system, which, he was sure, would do more than anything else for the: regeneration of Ireland. * Lord Naas said his Right Hon, Friend had {not exaggerated the importance of the‘quesâ€" tion. It was certain that something must be done with the Irish railways, for he fully agreed with him as to the great evils arising from the want of consolidation, â€"The original cost of the railways was £27,000,000, and as was cerâ€" tain to be the case with amumber of small lines in a country like Ireland, the public convenience had been very little consuited in their construction and in their working. He doubted it the extravagant anticipations of a reduction of fares could b# effected under auy change, Underany system it must be gradual ; Iwall en un e e T E> Sir,â€"Will you please give the following synopsis of a debate on the "Irish Railways," at the late session of the Imperial Paryjament, a corner in your papor, and oblige â€" Yours, To the Editor of the Ottawa Triwzs Sirâ€"An error occurs in the telegram to the Now York //eralÂ¥/announcing © opening" of Parliament, _ Lâ€"wrote "the*secoud event of importance in the history of the Dominion took place toâ€"day," ete; The telegraph operaâ€" tor made me say "the event ot mefortune in the history of the Dominion took place to« day," ctc.

To the Editor of the Ottawa Tns «In conclusion, as there can be no real necessity for names, ornicknames, to coins that are decimally divided, and as cach figure will represent its own particular metul, or grade of coin, I have thought it best to leave each grade to be designated by the simple and translateable name of the metal the coins are made of, as go/d, si/ver, copper, t * Yours, &c.. The units of a column of figures would repreâ€" gent copper coins; the tens would represent gilver, and the hundreds and thousands would represent gold. As thusâ€"784 would read as seven gold, cight: silves, and four coppers, and the number of toins called for in cither column could be . patrd withont interfering with the payment ot the others. Uttawa, Nov. 9, 1867 Our currency would then consist of the same gold, silver and copper coins that we have now ; but having ten coppers; to the one silver picee ; and ten silvers, to the one gold piecce. It is well known, that to constitute a medium of exchange, the article passing as eurrent cuin, need not of necessity bear an exact intrinsic value in relation to other coins ; butfthatâ€"providing the law of the land has deâ€" clared its evrrent value, or custom accepts itâ€" a small piece of metel having the legal, or accepted stamp on it, would pass as freely as a larger piece without it. So with our present cents; they could be made to pass very conâ€" veniently for a time, either as tenths, or halfâ€" tenths of the shilling, by being called in and reissued with a stamp of their Dominion legal value upon them. \ Ottawa, Nov. 8, 18« With these coins we could pay any decimal, or halfâ€"decimal quantity of the gold coin, in silver, without the aid of copper coins, and it only remains to shew how little trouble it would take to complete the system with its inferior or copper coins. In like mahner by adopting the ny's'tem I am proposing, we shall have the advantage of the same pure representatiou of coins, for, as compared with England‘s pounds, shillings and penee ;‘ ours might be set down as /a//â€" pounds, shillings and tenthks, the chief dif. terence being the substitution of & decima/ subdivision of the inferior coins, in lieu of a duodecimal. & tial feature in any system of decimal currency which pretends: to anything . approximating perfection : â€"we shall have our coins purely and exactly represented in our accounts. As forexample is the case in England‘s pounds, shillings and pence system ; where the three columns represent the three grades of coins; the gold, theâ€"silver, the copper; and cach shews at a glance the exact number of coins required to pay the amount expressedâ€"so much gold, so :much silver, so much copper.

Po.r_t Hope, Lindsay and The following is the length and cost of the geveral railways in the Dominion :â€" _ From the foregoing figares it will ‘be seen that whilst in 1852 Canada could only boast of 30 miles of railway she kas now, . including the railways of New Brunswick :and Nova Scotia, 2,455 miles, The population of the Dominion is estimated at 4,000,000, so that with the exception of the United States, which possesses a mile of railway for about every thousand inhabitants, the rate ‘of Cauada, which is nearly fiveâ€"cighths for the same proportion of population, shows a greater mileage system per head of population than any other country, New Brunswick, like her sister Maritime Province, also owns a railway, being the line from St. John to SLediacâ€"a distance of 108 miles. It is called the European and Noith American, and it is intended to extend the line westwarls from i3t. John to the boundary line of the State of Maine, the present railâ€" way system of that State beingiin like manner extended ubtil ajunction is effected between the two systems. : With the completion of these extensions and the construction of the Intercolonial railway, « passenger landing at Halifax will be able to take his train to any city in the States or in the Dominion. In adâ€" dition to the European and North American: railway, New Brunswick boasts of two olfii |‘ linesâ€"the New Brunswick and Canada, miles long, rummiug from 8St. Andrew‘s tol Woodstock ; and the St, Stephens branch railâ€" way, a short line of 18 miles in length. It is not unlikely that some portion of the Woodâ€" stock line. may be utilised as part of the inâ€" tercolonial railway, but until the route of the latter is finally settled, it is impossible to say whether this will be so or not. | Was necessary, notwithstanding their unrivalâ€" | led inland navigation, to combine with it an 99 | equally good railway communicationâ€"that 56 | was it they were to continue to be the carriers 25 | of the products of the western States through 24 ' the valley of the 8t.

There was, for example, the, horse railway from Lapreiric, ninc miles abote Montreal, to 8t, Johns, on the Richelieu River, which was opened in July, 1835, and was first worked with locomotives in 1837. There was also the horse railway between Queenstown and Chippewa, which was opened in 1839, but with thess exceptions and the length of the Lachine Railway, a line. runnibg from Monâ€" treal for soven miles to the westward, the railway system of Canada cannot be said to have commericed until after the passing of: the Railwayâ€" Act in 1849, and even then it was not for about a year that any substantial proâ€" gress was made. But after that date the works of seyeral lines were <pushcd forward rapidly, arid in 1853 the lines from Montreal : to Sherbrooke, from Toronto to Bradford, and . from. Hamilton to Suspension Bridge wets ; opened. In 1854 the line between Montreal ‘ aud Quebec was opâ€"ned, â€" the fdirst train hayâ€"@ ing carried Lord Elgin, who was then er roule to England, .
