It must be first opened at public expense, and then stocked either by the same means, or by the aubsidy system. The barning or sinking of asteamer or two would be a break down of the route, and goods thus arrested in transita would have no local value.

There is a great principle involved in our dealing with even the most insignificant of the portages west of Lake Superior. It is a proclamation of Can~dian nationality :â€"that anada is no lor ge¢ to be confined to the Talley of the St. L @1Â¥ ce ; that we are about, Botwithstanding t.s Munros doctrine, to ko up and possess the good land which Providence bas reserved for our chilâ€" vallsy, the line averages neasly 7,000 feet above the sea,.

Moreover, asâ€"there is less danger _V uaning & rapid, or in sliding on thin b,lmhvoon(oodley,flM‘ way, so l-. are less likely to come to grief, nationally , while ‘n motion, than if standiog SUB. Lastly it is clearly our interest and duty to make the most of our country and position, while we have time and opportunity, as the best preparation for whatever destiny may await us, Anad as no probable condition of future political existence will give us greater territorial control than we now hold, we should rise to the dignity of the position and fling aside all " one horse" projects for the truly national one of a Canadian Atlantic and Pacific kailway. â€" The work ‘ouxnov called on to do as a nation is to build only as many miles of railâ€" way as wore constructed in the Province of Ontario alone in the seven years between 1853 and 1800. Seven hundred and cightyâ€"eight miles of the Pacific Railway were opened in 1868, 425 in the Californis, and 363 in the Missouri sides.

These courts come on alternately with the Courts of Assize and Nisi Pri at which aittings causes instituted in ‘:‘u Inferior Courts may be tried and disposed of at the instance of plaintiff«, and in both the Inferiot and Superior Courts in civil cases the interâ€" vention of juries may be dispensed with, and the presiding Judge may be turned into judge and jury at the optien of the suitors. Ma. Fortwax aso Gaxtcauzx,â€"The calenâ€" dar laid before the Conrt does not appear much larger than usual, although this city, with its large population, has bren brought within our jurisdiction by a recent act of the Government.and Legislature of Ontario, who, in their wisdom, or a desire fer economy, have thought ft to abolish the Recorder‘s Court, which was so ably presided over by my learned friend, Mr. Lewis. _ _]I must confess that I regret it was thought necessary .to effect these changes to the exâ€" tent they have been brought. Reducing the number of ‘mhf in our county: courts and sessions ot the Poace, d:rlm the young lawyer in the country an opportuaity, twics a year, of attending those courts and to some extent keeping up his knowledgo of the practice of his protwssion, as thesoe courts are conducted upon the same principles as in the higher courts. ‘then as to dispensing with juries in civil cases, I doubt if there is on the whole much improvement in the Act. In cases where the conteation is as to the construction of conâ€" tracts, balancing of accounts, computation of amounts, dve bills or notes, and such like, it is very well that a Jadge shoald alone decide and fix the amount due, but in cases sound â€" iog altogether in damages, the: old jury sys tem, in my humble opinion, could not be imâ€" proved, and I hope will yet be generally reâ€" sorted to, At the last Assizes in this place a Judge of the Court of Queen‘s Bench was enâ€" gaged a considerable length of time in ascer. taining and deciding upon the damage dore to a party, for wrongfully taking a fow bunâ€" dles of hay not over $20 in value. & By the present system,too, the most trifling indictment may be, and will be, brought into the Superior Courts more frequently than formerly, and will create more expense to the country in that respect. Bringing into the Superior Courts and placing before the judges of those courts trifling and unimportant issues, and u:lz them to adjudicate u:. them will not to maintain those tribunals in the exaited poâ€" sition which they have hitherto occupied, Then there has bsen some amendment made in the Division Court Act, In future these courts have the power of enab! parties to atiach or garnishee, as it is called, debts due by third parties to the immediate debtor, a provision which was much required, and when understood will give general satisfaction to parties requiring to proceed in those conrts. _HMHaving suid so much upon the change in our courts, we may now turna to our immediate duty on this occesion. 3 y I have no doubt most of you have sat on Grand Juries before, and know the general outlines of your duties. The cemprehensive oath you have taken comprises the substance of them. You are empannelled to enquire into, and ascertain whether the charge, whatever it may be, is sufficiently established by the accusing party as to believe the offence was committed, and that the accused should be put upon bis trial lnomeom;ltmlnolmqm in that, then you should find a true bill, if otherwise, no bill. The Count;y Attorney and the Court will always advise zn when you require advice, but neither have any right to influence your judgment or disore= tion. You will as usual inspect the jail and enquire int> its managemert, and you are at liberty, and the court invites you to offer any suggestions you may think proper upon matters in any way relating to the adminisâ€" tration of justice, and you may depend they will receive all that consideration which the opinion of so respectable and intelligent a body as you are properly demands, Ciks And now gentlemen although beyond the sphere of our immediate duty on the occasion, I trust I may be permitted to refer to the general state ot our country at the present day. In no period of our brief history have questions arisen of so much importance to us, andto posterity, as those at present, and for some time past, engaging the minds. of our Government and Legisliature, _ The County Court for the trial of civil Our whole political character and position in the world is changed, no country bas been more rapidly transformed by legislation alone than this.

On enquiry it was found that Mr. Frank Satchell had gone to Mr. Lees, the County Crown Attormey, and informed him that his wife had tounda child in a trunk in her servant girl‘s room on Tuesâ€" day night, a little before ten o‘clock, and that a servant girl named Mary AaAnn _ Mooney acknowledged the child to be hers ; and Mr. Satchell requested that the matter might be immediately investigated., Detectives ONeill and Davisâ€" went to the bhouse to enquire into the matter, And the coroner, Dr. Beaubien, summoned a jury to hold an inquest, but adjourned to six o‘clock this evening to await a Jod mortem examinaâ€" tion by Dr. Sweetland. Our reporter proceeded to the residence of the Messrs.. Satchel!, east of the Rideau river, where the following facts were elicited : Mary Ann Mooney, a youug woman of about twenty years of age, came to live with them eight months ago in the capaâ€" city of servant. Hercharacter was good, and she bad lived a long time in the service of Mr. John Graham, in Nepean. Her mother and u:mnhumm at March Corners. Some time r she had come to live at Messrs, Satchell‘s, she stated that she was married to a shantyman named Barry, and several weeks ago suspicions were entertained that she was enciente, but being questioned on the subject she denied the fact, and continued to do so up to the last. A week or two since she expressed a wish to go home to her mother for three or four weeks, and it was arranged that she shauld go and return to her place at the end of that time, . It was expected that she would goin a few days. On Monday night last she was out, and had the misfortune to fall over a large stons, by which one of her legs was rery much braised, and a pain ht::fht on in her left side, She also complai of a violent pain in her head., On Tuesday evening she showed such . symptoms of illness that Mrs. Frank Satchell agaip put the question to her as to her condition, but still she denied the imputation which the question conveyed. Her illness, however, seemed very suspicious, and the moanings heard in her room made the household feel L HK C\ ! 1i .A WA very uncomfortable, and in a short time Mrs. Batchell went into her room, and found the girl in bed. Mr. Satchell als> entered, when the appearance of the room indicated what had taken place. Search was made, and in a trunk by the bed side was found wrapped in a skirt the body of a male infant, Mrs. Satchell took it out, and she believes that it opened its mouth, and gasped two or three times, and then expired. Its head was conâ€" siderably bruised, for which the mother atâ€" tributed to two causesâ€"the first to her fall of the previous evening, and secondly to her position at the time of the birth. We should have stated that previously to this medical aid had been sent for, and medicine procured. And Mr. Satchell lost no tims in communiâ€" cating with the authorities, ‘The unhappy woman bears an excellent character in the family, and has all along evinced remarkable attachment to the children. After the child was found, the mother declared that it was her intention to have called the ladies,and told them of the birth before they went to bed, but that she cou!d not bear that the men should know it. The professional opinion is that premature delivery was caused by the fall on Monday night. She is still remaining in the house in a very precarious condition, and in charge of the detective, awaiting the result of the inquest.
