Is it not passing strange that in a |review of a session, closed two Jays before, such an ardent advocate of Conlederation should have entirely overlooked these important ateps towards the completion of the great acheme ? â€" But our western confrer¢‘s temper is soured. Thowhdndtnflof\h‘ Coalition of 1864 is no longer in public life ; hms Heutenants, who have followed bis flag into opposition to the work of his own hands, are shorn of influence ; and the most that the Globés i\il temper can concede 1s a bare , possibility ot thankfulness that something "has been done in the West. It cares not for the East; when it tannot find faalt with what has been done in that quarter, it can afford to be silent. ° The calamity of the session, in the eyea of the Globe, was the retusal of Parhament to condemn the selection of the Intercolonai Riilway route, at, the bidding otf Mr. Mcâ€" Kexztis. It m.very unkind to the member tor Lambton to rsopen this question. It is a refection on the wisdom of the Hon. Grzonxes: Buows, who never advocated any | other iine than the Nortbern, during the Goverwon Gexeaiar to issue a proclamation tor the due observance ol the second anaoi~ versary of the going into force of the British America Union Act. It will of course be understood that ‘*such prociamation does not make the observance of the first of July obligatory as a general holday ; nevertheless it is to be expected that the day will be celebrated as one of national rejoicing. f. Globe * may be thaakiul" for the acquisiâ€" tion of the Northwestâ€"though in its ill conditioned temper there is room for doubt that it really isâ€"but it has not a word to fnr the admission of Newfoundland, or for Lambton, .a 1865, in favour of the rout* which was selected by the Government, in 1868, Ani the value of that argument does not consist in setting forth the special merits of the Nortnern over other routes, but in the full recogn.:ion of the fact that at the time the Confedcration scheme was, under discusâ€" sion, it was universally understood that the "Intercolon‘ al Railway‘‘ which formed one of its essential features, meant, in general terma, the line surveyed and recommended should be made to set it aside. But a few weeks ago our columas gave evidence of the Globe may be reckless enough to dare anything, either in the way of asserâ€" on or denial, it is utterly unable to prove that the common w"mm than that which we have con=â€" atruction of the railway, projected :’ Major R »iwzsox, as an essentral condition of the Union of the old Province of Canada with New Brunswick ansd Nova Scotia. I! the Dominion Government is to be blamed at all in the premises, it should be for haviog opened the door to a possibility of " keepâ€" * ing the promise to the ear, and breaking it * to the hope,‘* by adopting another route. But as subsequent researches only coufirmed the wiasdom of Major a choice, Miowmhfihm:;onthh acore, for as it was conclusively demonstrated that the line which, by common consent, and by the special advocaoy of the member for Lambton, in 1865, was the line which could best fulfil the intention contempleted by the framers of the Confederation scheme, ali room for regret that another had not been selected was effectirely removed. The as sertion that * ten millions‘" of dolars hare been thrown away bythis selection is so utâ€" terly fallacionus that no one understanding W# understand that the Privy Council we recommended his Excellency the #ind June 1889. SiTURDAY, JUNE 2#%6, 1869. NEW ADVERTISEMENTS. tion of the arrangements J @ IRVIXE, A D C. the question, save the Glob«, would dare to make it. The cardioal sin .of the session, according to the Globeé‘s view, is aimply this :â€" that Parliamenat has been true to the fundamental condition of the Union, actually consummated by the British Nortbh America Act; that it has refused to break faith with the common understanding of the several Provinces; that it has refueed to violate the solemn engagements of the country, deliberaâ€", tely entered into, with the Imperial bonmâ€" ment, with the people in England who have invested their money in the Intercolonial loan, and with the Canadian Contractors who hatre, up to this time, come under obligation to construct the railway. For these things the Globe conderans the late session, utterly reckless of the injury it does to the reputaâ€" tion of the Hon. Gzoroz Browx who pledged hintl to the cost <of five Intercolonial RailWways rather than lose Confederation, ‘wad with provoking contempt for the fair fame of the member tor Lambton, whose great Confederation speech has been rendered famous solely by the praises therein lavished upon tais very route! How can "the Reform *« Opposition‘‘ survive this damaging inflicâ€" tion from the hands of ‘its,chosen organ ? Itis not surprising that denuaciation of the Mll‘l\ll tulfilment of the conditions of Umon as regards the railway should be tollowed by an emphatic denunciation of the new arrangement by which the Union has been rendered bearable to the Province of Nova Scotia. In this particular the Globe sees nothing but the violation of the Constiâ€" tution. â€" Well, if this is itas whole concern, we begz of it again to steamdy its nerves. beg of it again to stemiy its nerves. The power which: gave the effect: of law to the new constitaution will surely see that it is not violated. If Parliament has exceeded its powers, Downingâ€"st. will in due time make the fact patent to the world, and our contemporary will have the gratification of seeing his constitutional doctrines conâ€" firmed in the highrest quarters. It is really useless to wasate time on this feature of the question. The only fair objection raised was that by the Ontario Trrasurer: that Nova Scotia was getting more than her shareâ€"more than she required, or ought to require, for her local services. When the question comes up on this shape, it is suscepâ€" tible of discussion in its merits ; and everyâ€" body can understand pretty well that those who espouse the affirmative of the proposiâ€" tion imean one of two things ; either that Nova Scotia shall be held in enforced bondâ€" age, or that she shall be allowed toâ€"leave the Union; and in either case‘the conclusion is obvious, that the argument, if not: the * Reform opposition‘‘ stands about as innoâ€" cent of praise or blame in the premises as the mythical man in the moon. It is as neediess to add that the Globe deals liberally in general charges of reckâ€" less extravagance, as it is to say that it avoids specific instances Except in the matiers already mentioned, it notes but two sases ; that of the reduction of the proposed salaries of the officials â€"at the Kingston Penitentiaryâ€"an eg¢onomy not due to the Opposition, but to Ministerial supporters, as was the reduction in salaries proposed in the Militia Bill last yearâ€"anod the Â¥epurchase of Chantry Island. : The latter is a very smaill affair, the Government but returns the purchase money and the greater portion advocate, favours disunjon. y The Globe would have been false to its uative modesty had it not claimed for the Opposition the hon‘s share in bringing about the postponement of the Banking and Curâ€" rency questions. Whether that postponeâ€" ment was wise or otherwise, is immaterial to our contemporary‘s utterly groundless pretension in this respect. It was solely in deference to the views of the supporters of the Government, in the press, and in Parâ€" liament, and especially from the Proviace of Ontarig, that the Government laid ovrer the resolutions on these subjects; aml the of the interest for a property with which it should never have parted, and the whole amount is but $2,000. Serviceable as the late session has been to the public interest, we do really think that after two days of incubsation the Globe‘s editor might have hateched a better case agninst it, seeing that he writes with such utter contempt of many well known tacts. Buch is to be, in future, the title of the eilucational iostitution on Ridâ€"auâ€"st., dccupyâ€" ing the spacious building bheretofore known as the Revere House. The "Grey Sisters" have purchased this building with the view of converting it into an academy for the acâ€" commodation of their increasing number of puplis. ‘The building is now undergoing extensive ropairs, and will be open for the reâ€" eeption of usarders and day pupile at the be= ginning of the hext «thool term, 1st Septemâ€" ber next, Tho eligilility of the building for such a purpose is beyand question. Its exâ€" tent will enable the Grey Sisters to receive a much larger number of pupils than they can now accommodate ; and as a consequence the academies on Wellington and Boltonâ€"sts. will hereafier be exclusiveiy devoted to the in. struction of day scholars. ‘The success of the Grey SBisters in imparting a thorough and wholesome course of female education is too well known throughout the country to need !uyipochloo--.duluu this time, and we doubt not that‘ their new academy on Rideauâ€"st , the acquisition of which is an eviâ€" dence of the favour in which they are held, will bo duly appreciated by a corresponding Increase of public patronage. To the Editor of THE TIMES, Bin,â€"I would ask permission to occupy your attention, and a place in your columas, as to the matter of certain liabilitics of the late Hon. T. D.

The past few weeks bhave been extraordl. narily replete with topics of supreme public interest. To begin with we may take & departure from the agrarian excitement in Ireland, cousequent upon an apparent revival of the old evil regime of landlord terrorism and even: assassination. The treasonable eccentricities of the Lord Mazor of Cork had given a renewed impuise of vitality, and the fact that it had become unfortunately necesâ€" sary to lift this vulgar agitator out of the obscurity which could be alone congenial, by devising a special legislative enactment to obviate his mischievous influence, had the efect of flinging over the empty brawlings of some ultraâ€"commonplace lIrish sedition= mongers, & certain deceptive and momentary brilliancy ca‘culated to lend very undue prominence to their existence. Just as, in the transformation scene of a pantomime, the lurid glow of red fire lights up the murky outlines of the bafflâ€"d demons of the stage, aad brings into relief their grotesque hideâ€" gusness, ere consigning them to the limbo °* LONDON CORRESPONâ€" DENCE. beneath the boards. Then followed immediately the final act ol{ the Irish Church drama in the Commons, which, although in other respects an anti. climaxâ€"â€"the issue being a foregone conclusion â€"â€"borrowed some reflected dignity from the splendid oratory both of Mr. Disracli and of Mr. Gladstone, Succeeding to, or simultanâ€" }aou with, which came the excitement of the Freach elections, and of the American claim#, 'Mtn topics have roused public discusâ€" sion and private controversy to such a re= markable degree, that it is fitting for me to gire them more than a passing notice here. The strength and earnestness of antiâ€" dynastic sentiment in the great cities has unquestionably taken, if not Europe, at least England by surprise; The success of M M Bancel and Gambetta, and the strong support of M M. Raspail and Rochefort have opened our eyes convincingly to the ardour and determination of the Red Republican minâ€" ority., That M M. Thiers, Jules Favre, and Garnierâ€"Pages should have run a close risk of Anding the great centres of intellectual activity ~and of material prosperity, so forgetfal of the eminent services (of theso illastrious statesmen in the cause of liberty as to prefer to their thed wisdom the theoretic impracticability of a Socialistic philosopher, and the unscrupulous virulence of the most hotâ€"headed and irreâ€" sponsible ot journalists, proves how â€" bitter must be the animosity towards the Empire which will have its standard borne in any hands, provided only it is borne far enough and tast enough, It is as though the Liberal party at home should hare elected Mr. Beales in preterence to Mr. Gladstone, or preferred Mr. G. W, M. Reynolds to the President of the Board of Trade. Or, as though * Church and State" should, in Bucks, replace Mr. Disracli by Mr. Whalley, or the University of Oxford reject the late Home Secretary for the sake of Mr. Murphy‘s more efficient championship.

And, be=â€" cause the tranquility of France involves to so great an extent the tranqauility of Earope, a proportionately keen attention has beea beâ€" stowed on this side of the channel to the attlâ€" tude of opposing parties on ths other. The great question which remains for solution is whether the â€"Emperor will accept the verdict of the cities as a challenge, or as a warningâ€" whether he will attempt to disarm the "Irre~ concileables" by such further concessions as may show his system to be not inconsistent mmMâ€".hmm in which we Englishmen have learned to use the word ; or may take the altarnative of employing bis supreme authority for such despotic reastion as shall silence for the future any marmurs against his throne, and evince his determinaâ€" t‘on to treat rebellion against the constitution â€"lor this is really the text of the Rougesâ€"as treason calling for the high hand of represâ€" sion. The former course must be earnestly hoped for by all friends of France and free dom. It is one which will gather under the eagles the wholo strength of the moderate Oppositionâ€"a phalanx sufficiently respectâ€" able in numbers, and transcendently so in intellect and influence. It is a programme which cannot but isslate trom all practical sympathy men who have confessed conciliaâ€" tion to be impossible, and which will put M. Rochefort very much in the position of Wat Tyler, when our own Richard II. took the wind out of| the salls of that blustering _ demagogue by turning to his people with the true Kingoraft that desâ€" pised asy intermediate negotiator, and in the simple words * Z will bs your leadar®" exploded harmlessly the petard that was re Med upon for his destruction. But, although to our notions the advantages Imperial ‘plhydncl.mâ€"y»Lnolfl- ous as to be aziomatic, yet wa must not always look upon continental erises through insular apectacles. We must remember that in France it is no party that is threatened, but the constitation ; it is not the fats of a Minâ€" ister which is balanced, but of the Crown. The Crown has three declared enmities against which to protect itself, And if, beâ€" tween the cross fire from Legitimist, Orleans, and Radical batteries, it should find itselt eoerced to harshness, although weo shall asâ€" suredly regret, we may not too keenly marâ€" The phase into which the American deâ€" mands have drifted, through the advocacy of Mr.Summer, has been such as to disappoint, deeply, all the best friends the Great Reâ€" public <can claim among thinking Englishâ€" men. For the past cight years the antago= nism in which the two countries have, from time to time found themselves, has never taken a shape more completely satisâ€" isyxtory to the people and statesmen of this 5-. During that long period there has been no shift of the cards which could posâ€" alibly have showed our game at better advanâ€" taige, or reconciled all c!s.«s of our communiâ€" ty more heartily to the platform on which we have taken our stand. . American diploâ€" macy has, as is not unusoal, made such a fearful blunder as to infict infnitely more damage upen its own cause than was ever within the power or the inclination of cither Lords Stanley or Clareridon, The publicaâ€" rHEK OTTAWA IIMKEKS, JUNE 26. tion of the official correspondence proves | 1 that the Foreign Office has, all through, | made the most strenuous exertions towards : the maintenance of friendly international | { feeling, and has manifcsted an unwearied | j tombination of good frith and adherence to } bonourable principle, with a consistently sin= | cere effort towards conciliation, andâ€"if the | , word be admissibleâ€"giveâ€"andâ€"take good felâ€" | lowship, and have no precedent or parallel in | the archives of any State Department. All England is convinced that these upright dealings were met, on the part of Mr. Seward, by chicanery the most ‘contemptible, and that, while ours was the attitude of which statesmen might be proud, his were the inâ€" trigues at which an attorney might blushâ€" were such a phenomenon possible. All England was heartily desirous of closing the rankling : sore. _ No _ matter what the salve should cost, let it only bo clearly made apparent that it shouldSbe applied by us, and the order should %vb been cheerfully given, and the amende ble freely made. To compare great things with small, we were somewhat in the position\ of a railway comâ€" pany, on whose;line a disastrous accident had : happened. Applied to for compensation, we , contended that our imanagement was not in | fault, for that the loss had occurred through \ the action of the piaintiffs themselves and in the legitimate progress of our traffic, through a misadventure for which we were notâ€"responâ€" sible, but which was clearly traceable to their own carelessness or culpability, And, at the same time,intiniated that we were qnl':‘pnw- ed to take our case into court, and abide the deâ€" cigion of impartial judicial authority, Had that decision been adverse, we would have gladly paid every shilling ; our reputation for fair and oven generous dealing being dearer to us than all. But, when the plaintiffs refuse to join such fssue, although we waive in their favour every technical advantige, and bave no other desire than a prompt settlement of all ground of disagreement, and begin to imâ€" pugo our system of working our line, and teli us that we must learn from them the principle of railway conduct, and assert that it was our wish that they should havs been injured, and that for u?h malerolence we owe them abject apology, and that, as both before amd since, we hbave had commercial intercourse with ‘ persons to the:n unfriendly whereby the latter have reaped advantage, these secondary cor=â€" ;ddontlou raise the original demand to an unknaown powerâ€"why : then nothing remains but to intimate that they may recover legally as they) best can, and that there is an end at present of all but the strictest business, relaâ€" tions between us, and this " ultimatum * is cheertully agreed to by all our shareholders,and, happily for us, bhas precluded the possibility of these interminable " claims " creating any domestic differences here. The main result to America will be that the repudiation of Mr. Johnsou, coming so soon aifter that of the 8t. Thomaes negotiations,will make every civilized Gom:.:::xcld extremely cautiouns in its in will place Uncle Sam‘s envoys abroad in the very uncomfortable Indeed, I have reason to believe that almost any other Minister than Mr. MotJley, whose personal presfige will make him welcom», would find his social position more than emâ€" barrassing, arriving among us at such a moâ€" ment. Because it must be remembered that one count of the United States‘ indictment is that we were too hospitable to Mr. Motley‘s position of the pariahs of the diplomatic corps. Now, if I have, at such lengtb, end«avourâ€" ed to reflect the prevalent tone of English opinion upon grave subjects during the past week or two, it is not because these matters in any degree pertain to the " situation" ot to. day, It is rather because I desired to conâ€" vey an impression of the all absorbing charâ€" acter of the latter that I attempted to show ho# otherwiso engrossing were the topics which it has cast into the shade. France, America, Irelandâ€"everything that has been most politically excitingâ€"have all passed inâ€" to obscurity in‘ the glare of the impending clash between the Houses of Peers and Comâ€" When the Irish Church Disestablishment §Bill had virtually completed its triumphant carcer in the Lower Chamber, and it had beâ€" come manifest that the representatives were determined, by an overwhelming majority, in carrying unamended, the interest of it» fate naturally transferred itself to the Lords,. ‘The question at once arose as to how our heredi. tary legisiators were to deal with the quesâ€" tion, upon the principle of which everbody knew their sense to be opposed to that of the Commons. The Opposition organs of the press, recognising the gravity of the occasion, were unanimous in recommendiog moderaâ€" tion, and counselled the Peers to consent to the second reading with a view to the introâ€" duction of such amendments in committee as would eliminate or modify the most objecâ€" tionable features of the measure. And, al. though the Church and State party on both sides the Channel suddeniy woke up to what may be styled a galvanic activity, and used almost superhuman exertion to bring to bear such inf@uence as would compel their Lord. ships to more decisive action ; although meet. ng after meeting had through England and the north of Ireland vocif@rously denounced the Bill and its author ; although deputation after deputation had fashed with bewildering mpidity before the andience of. the chiefs of # reactionism," as it was openly styled ; and although Mmm-r prt‘tion had been preâ€" sented from ties hitherto unbeard of, all convreying the prayer that the status guo might be permitted a prolonged exisrtence,. Still there was no apprebheasion in the public mind of anything more serious than a fair party battle, and no terror had yet intruded itself of the advent of a great constitational crisls, likely to bring into public discusssion the first principles ot our form of Government. } Buch crises are of rare occurrence in England, and are not easily anticipated. Up to Saturâ€" day afternoon last it was thought the Lords would accept the principlé of the Bill as the emphatic wish of the nation, and would conâ€" tent themselves with attempting such imâ€" provement in its detail as it seemed likely would be consented to by the people at large. o.pl?h.iy*b; afternoon t:o :::; was taken “ p servative Poanâ€"“lw.ml y u;= I:‘-j(:lt; of the Housscâ€"â€"was convened that day at the residenes of the Duke of Mariborough in 8t. James‘ Rquare, The meeting was not public, but its object being to determine. the flno to be taken on a matter of such moment, its , resultâ€"or at least its tendencyâ€"soon transâ€" 111 recollect Mr; Distaeli‘s Reform Bill '_:-"-.c proved too Democratic, when Secreâ€" pired. We learned with amazement, and almost incredulity, that the recognized Conâ€" servative ’l:fldou of the Lords, the men of the greatest lamentary experience and the most admitted political sagacity, bad strongly urged upon their juniors and followers unâ€" comprommising resistance. Lord Cairos and Lord Derby were prominent in such counse}s. The speech of the latter was especially powerful, and left no doubt of the earnestness of the old Tory chicf in bis advocacy of the boidest line. The Dukes of Ilflmngh and Rutland followed on the same side. A minâ€" ority, led by Lords Carnarvon (lor whom you tary for the Golonies) Salisbury and Stanhope, were in favour of amending rather than ejectâ€" ing the measure, and a yet smaller section, for whom Lord Danbigh was spokesman, offered views more liberal still. But the totally unexpected result remained that the great preponderance of the preponderating party of the Peers had resolved upon refusing a second reading. There was, however, no formal resolution passed, and it was. left to an "jndependent" member, the Earl of Harâ€" rowby\to move the amendment, which he will do next Monday. i * There is, therefore, a prospect of a direct conflict between the Houses, such as has had no. para‘lel since 1832, . The Lords have thrown duown the gage of battle, and the Commons take it up unbesitatingly. ~As I said it was late on S:turday ‘evening when the determination of the Peers became known. On Monday evening in the Comâ€" mons, while routine business was still in progressâ€"or rather,to be more exact, while the ,Home Scecretary was, in reply to a qu stion, giving some very â€" interesting information _ regarding a _ recent colâ€" lieety _ riot in _ Walesâ€"Mr. _ Gladstone entercd, and, as is his wont, walked slowly abd sedately to his seat on the first bench of the Treasury. As ho passed up the floor there rang from the un*ed ranks of Liy berals behind him peal after peal of : uch cheerâ€" ing as the old oak rafters of 8St. Stephen‘s have seldom echoed to for anything less momentous thas a grand triumph of politics or war. Again and again, and for some mlx‘lum after he had taken his place, burst forth the jubilant acâ€" claim of his supporters, answering ia these notes of battle the haughty challenge of St. James‘ Square, Mr. ‘ruce was forced to make along pause on his narrative, while the maâ€" jorty thus unmistakeably expressed its devoâ€" tion to its chief, and its determination to follow him to the end. On that same night Earl Devon, in the Lords, announced his seâ€" cession from Lord Cairns‘ leadersbip. And, since then the town is in a ferment of agitaâ€" tion, and next Monday looked forward to with an intorse expectancy such as, in the present generation, has been never equalled, â€" _ * Ca:&liovemncip.uon, Reform, Free Trade, and Paper Duties have given rise to the most recent conflicts between the Chambers. Of these the first and the third were smoothed over quietly by the influence of the Duke of Wellington, _ and â€" the _ last: happily passed away, nine years ago, without bitterâ€" ness on either side, ‘The precedent of ‘33 seems, however, more in point this moment. ‘There is no Duke of Wellington alive, no Nestor in our councils, who can sway their passions and prejudices by his .eknovlodged‘ wisdom, and through the deference due to his brilliant services.â€" And the question at issue is so much graver than that of 1860, that there is scarcely a paraliel. In ‘32 the Tory Lords, upon the advice of the King, abstained from voting, and zo the deadâ€"lock was eased. But not until the funds had fallen alarmingly, until after the prorogation and reâ€"assembling of Parliament, until after the resignation of ministers, and the confessed failure of the Opâ€" position to replace them in office. In what respects the pregent crisis will resemble, and in what respocts differ from its forerunner, is the point on which all men‘s minds are just now agitated. Bhould the Lords throw out the Bill, it is possible that Mr. Gladstone will at once proâ€" rogue, and at once call together Parliament. Then the.Bill, without the slightest alteraâ€" tion, will be again introduced, passed through all its stages amid significant Liberal lllonce\ and ence more presented to the Peers for them to reject a second time if they deem it well. There remains the corrective of the creation of as many new Peers as would be necessary to carry it, which is the ultime. ratio by which the Upper House is to be con.â€" vinced against its will. These proceedings could not take place without the minds of the people becoming inflamed to a lamentable degree, and would assuredly result in a sgvere shock to aristocratic influence. They are, then, deeply to be deprecated, but it is not so easy to see how they are to be avoided. True, some Liberal journals affect to believe that Earl Harrowby will fail of sufficient support to give him the victory, but this hope I cannot but déem chemerical. Btill, Saturâ€" day has prepared us for any surprise, and something, as yet all unexpected, may turn the scale ere Monday. One thing is certain, The Commons accept no material amendments. Ocdly enough, there is a question this moment of the creation of life peerages. The Bill has passed committee of the Lords, and will be read a third time, at an early day, not yet fixed. There will, however, be a debate, and perhaps a division, dependecnt upon the relationships between the Houses then existing. It provides for but two creations yearlyâ€"the total number sitting at one time rot to exceed 28. It is not acomprehensive measure in avy way, and is regarded more as a prudent concession to the spirit of the day, than " as any step towards a real and fundamental reform" ; My letter is so long that I am obliged to leave out allâ€"reference to minor topics. Beâ€" fore you receive this the cable will have told you the issue of all the complication upon which I have so perplexedly dwelt, and the interest that we. feel this moment will have passed away, or assum her form, Butthe record of so deep a stai suspense on the part of the whole cannot be without value, and may ly help you to under» stand better the outlined news sent you by wire. I will only add regarding it that this year‘s Derby and Grand Prix were both exâ€" ceptionably staid and decorou«, and that men‘s mind seemed for once, on the famous Wednesâ€" day and Sunday, occupied by graver matters than the triumpbs of Pretender or Glaneur.
