Application was recently made to the Court of Queen‘s Bench, Manitoba, before Chmef Justice Wood, by Mr. Royal, on behalf of Andre Nault, charged with complicity in the Scott murder, for libera« tion of the prisoner on bail pending the trial, On the 23rd ult., His Lordship de. livered judgment in the premises, refusing the application, and accompanying his re« fusal with a very concise exposition of the law and the practice in such cases. The chief ground upoun which bail was refused was, that a grand jury having found a true bill for a capital offence, and no undue or extraordinary delay having taken place in the courts having jurisdiction, liberation under any pretence would be unpreces dented and against the spirit of the law. Nault was accordingly held in custody, ‘The result of the municipal election at Vicksburg, Mise., where a disturbance beâ€" tween blacks and whites was anticipated, came off without amy violence, and in favour of the Democtatie or white party. The endeayour of the Govâ€" ernor to secure the presence of federal troops is declared to have had in view a hostile interference with the action of the white men, and a repetition of the disrepatable seenes with which other parts of the South have already become familiar, The Democratic papers brand him as an ally of the rogues who for some years have had a monopoly of public offices in Vieksâ€" burg, and who have bled the public too freely for the practice to be allowed to continue.

With regard to the Reciprocity Treaty, however, although there can be no ques« tion that it has the sympathy and support of the vast majority of the people of this }conntry,th-uil just the bope, dim and ‘ distant it may be, that an opposition, more or less strong, might be generated against it by persistent falsifications of its true \import, and continued appeals to the self ishness and intere«ted motives of certain ’ classes who may think themselves aggrievâ€" ed. Opposition to the Reciprocity Treaty, come from what quarter it may,is a godsend to the Opposition under present circum â€"‘ stances, | What then, let us see, does the approved authority of the Opposition press upon British Columbia matters say regarding the provisions of the proposed convention? 1t will be found, by referâ€" enee to an article in another column, that } PBritish (Eunbug according to the Stand» ard, will indeed reap very material advanâ€" tages from the Treaty in its present form. As will be seen, it shows that ship buildâ€" ing materials can be obtained very much cherper in British Columbia than in the States; and the protective restrictions now imposed by the general government ef the United States, amounting to an ad valâ€" erem duty of fifty per cent, on all materials used in rigging out ships in foreign ports, being once removed, British Columbis generally and the town of Victo. ria particularly will be in a position to com» pete sucéessfully with the American shipâ€" builders. We recommend all who have the true interests of Canada at heart to study well the concluding lines of the Standard‘s article, in which it ‘states that it feels assured the result will be to British Columbia of the utmest practical advantage, and will <tend to the development of a large and lucrative trade in shipâ€"building, sugh as without reciprocity it would have ‘been impossible to bring about. From a journal which has lately exhibited so much bitter opposition to the Administration, such an acknowledgement of the benelfits to be derived from the proposed Treaty is certainly of the utmost importance, as we may be well assured the Standard would be at ao pains to laud anything connected with Mr. Mackenzie‘s policy which did not entirely agree with its firm convictions of what would be for the gemeral good. is the Uttawa society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals still in existence, | and if so what is it doing ? If it is not alive, it ought to be, and if it is alive, there is plenty for it to do it it would only do it. We know that the societly at one time exâ€" isted, and did some good work, but we eandidly contess it would not be very crediâ€" table to its vigilance, or the faithfuines* with which it is expected to carry out its humane purposes, it it claimed to have vitality and permitted the cruelties prac« ticed upon the unoffending brute creation every day in our streets to pass unâ€" punished and unnoticed. The poor old bundles of bones called horses which do duty, under the charge of senseless, reck» less boys, in conveying refuse or timber for purposes of fuel over the city from day to sodaymn_gq{sdy\m subjects of the most inhuman treatment at the hands of their hbeartless youthful . drivers, who make a, ‘regular practice of racing with each other, to the serious embarragsment of street locomotion 6t all kinds, and incite the poor, wornâ€"out hacks to increased exertions .by an uns sparing use of the lash. â€" The subject is one which we think even demands the in« terference of the police, for there is danger to life and property, as well as cruelty to the animals, in this reckless system of driving horses, erpecially such as are in charge of incompetent juveuiles. Yes, terday we had ourselves the misfortune to witness a case of most heartless and indeâ€" jensible brutality, perpetrated upon a poor unoftending domestic fowl, Two of them had apparently made their escape from a market waggon on the Richmond Road, and a man and boy in charge set out in pursuit. Instead of endeavoring to get them into & corner and securing them in the usual way, they each set after a fow! apiece, and the man, exasperated apâ€" parently at being unable to keep pace with a hen, struck the poor bird a blow _ across the back with a _ atick, * fractaring the _ spine. The poor brute fell helplessly on the '-(mt, and the greater brute in kuman shape angrily pitched it, half dead and half alive, into a cask, there to die by inches. A manâ€"if he can be dignified by the nameâ€"who could do that could do anything ; we tremble to think the enorâ€" mity of which, with a little provocation, he would not be capgble. The officer of the Society for the prevention of cruelty to animals is doing good service in Toron« to, and we trust if the society here is not in working condition, that it will be resusâ€" |dilated and at work very soon. It is disâ€" | ereditable to our common humanity, not to speak of our common Christianity, that men should havée the impudence and the hardihood to perpetrate in the broad light | of day and upon the public street, enor» Imithdwhinb-ungowmldbonh-‘d.

For instance, there is the Reciprocity. Treaty, which is at least of equal importance with the Pacific Railway. Indeed, we should say that in the opinion of our gemtemporaries of the pposition, it is of the greater importance. The country has been appealed to upon the. Pacific Railway question, and has o thoroughly and emphatically endorsed Mr. Mackenzie‘s policy that we are not at all surprised the Upposition press should be and the importance which has been atâ€" tached to them has been such as to lead to that conclusion.

Mo: afternoon a meeting of the fl:‘:flm Board of"m:lm houf. in pursuance of a resolution passed at a meetâ€" 51( held last week. The attendance was very small, and during the progress of the proceedings this fact was repeatedly comâ€" mented upon by those who took mt in the gnmo-odinp. After des jJay, in consequence of the nonâ€"appearance of the gentieman who ‘had been announc. ed to preside, Mr. Adam Brown, President of the Board, was voted â€"to the chair, and in his opening remarks called attention to the object for which the meeting had been called, expressing the hope that the deâ€" liberations would be conducted with calm. ness and in an unprejudiced spirit. t and <best were mede in Oanada. mmuuotmhzagmu m&bnmuan-Mdfln United Stages, and experienge had proved to the subject by statesmen and men actively engaged in business, but no satis« factory solution of the problem had been arrived at, Gentlemen had come from England, and after investigating (the whole of the circumstances, had come to the conclusion that a reciprocal agreement should be arrived at between the two countries. The great question at issue was then, as now, that the people wanted, not money, but equal rights,. â€" For this lpuh pose an efficient and experienced pleniâ€"« potentiary had been deputed to Washing» ton, first to sscertain how the American Government felt on,the subjectiof Recipro« city ; and in the course of the preliminary negotiations it became apparent that a more oflcien‘t‘fonum could not have been appointed. He created a good imâ€" pression in the minds of the United States officials, and what was better than all, there was no ambiguity in his assertions or representations to them or to the peoplé of Canada, which, in his opinion, was what Canada wanted. ‘The up-hoto* this was that a treat was proposed which, in looh.ng over it, he thought might be divided into three parts. In the first place it contemplated that the natural producâ€" tions of each country should be freely in« unchn’lodd, which, in fact,. was included im the treaty, and which had been found from actual experience to be of adâ€" vantage to both countries, so thait many who had previously doubted the advisa» bility of tho:unn ;ow beliered th;t those ucts should be exchanged. In lpt‘k&?:f the Treaty as it affected the manufacturers of uxulmul implement makers and the farmers, he said the farâ€" mers had a right to buy their wherever they could be bought ; and experionse> had proved that the e profits by into the States than American manufacâ€" turers could make.

TLc Auam Hope. thenrorey mndanid he Rociprocity Discussed. The Reciprocity Treaty and Ship C guild!ng.fi From the Vietoria (R. C.) Standard, Not the least Important clause in the Bropond Reciprocity Treaty with the nited States, so far as British Columbia is concerned, is . that which provides for free trade in ships. There is no part of the world which offers greaster natural facilities for shipâ€"building than British Columbia possesses, and if the trola becomes law and free trade in ships included therein, we may confidently anâ€" ticipate that -hti.bmldin‘ will ere long become one of most important local industries of the country. The reason very.little has been done heretofore in this line, is because of the hostile characâ€" ter of the revenue laws of the United States, which were framed with a special view to foster the shipâ€"building interests of the States and to cripple those of the British American Provinces. It is now admitted by the Americans themselves that the protective system adopted by their Government in respect of this branch of budnul,‘ ofwwhi:tm ofloohh been the very opposite was intended, and th.?twbilo it eoxuinlg did adversely affect the interesis of Provincial ship«‘ builders, it also militated against the inâ€" terests of their own people. .
