Perhaps it never struck the Globe corzesâ€" pondent, but it is the fact, that his proâ€" pd--hmfi‘o.]* He was prepaikd to give the Ontario press ..au&ihh:-’--n.u-n- s0 longus their views and his own agreed, body‘s consideration, they ought, unâ€" doubtediy, to regret the part they took. The arguments, however, which have been advanced in defence of those who resisted unliawfully the edict of Her Majesty‘s highest aud last Court of appeal, at Monâ€" treal, liract reference to which the apoioâ€" yists of the rictous mob have contended for as a sacred right, and a bond of unity whivh have condesmmed the Toronto ri ts, and have forfeited the good will of the extremists on both sides, by condemnâ€" ing the Montreal riots, also havre done something for which they ought to be sorry. If 1t could be shown that they had thus been guilty of an injustice, even if those against whom their denunciations were directed, ned no claite upon anyâ€" would be equally forcible in the mouths of thoseâ€"and they are few, induodâ€"who would excuse the Toronto cutrage 1t is easy to lind an excuse for such proceed: mgs, but it is just as logical to say that the riot in Toronto was justified by the ov~s..entious objections of Projestants i. public procéssions on Sunday, organs, which are supposed to, and gener ally do, disouss public questions on what they believe to be their merits.. That they did their duty in a difficulty which par .&d&o“dum-n\ is proubly creditable to them, but not to that estent which deserves any special whici would have been their lega! and to all careful observers â€" that their condemuation of the canduct of the Toronto rioters were based upon reasons which would have been equaily applica‘}~ had the rioters been Ca<bolics, and woubd have been applied wi.~ .e same but no greater sevarity. The faot that Protestâ€" ants aro very> generally the conductors of Untario newspapers, does not make these newspapers in any sense Protestant. They stances, independently of the relation in which they might stand to the rioters. The other failucy to which the Globe‘s Montreal rioters were justified in setiing law and order al defiance beea~>>> they objected to the burial of Joâ€" Gmbord‘s remains in consecrated ground. The " couscievce" argument is ecually Globe in respect of the latter, " Catholio" inquries :«â€"â€"* Was it intended merely as #2 sop 10 the Orange Cerberus of Toroate, " for which, uéiieve me, that hydraâ€"headed * amuml won‘t thank you ?"

He even goes the length of praising Pro test .nis and the newspapers they control â€"altbough in an indirect way â€"for their hbermiity in that instance. The Montreal ~us, in an artiole, an extract from which was reproduced in these columns a few days ago, does the same thing in a more direct and poipted manner. The assump . tion that the journalists who controi the press of (niario approuched the #«bject as Protestants, isa great and somewhat dangerous fallacy, which ought not to be permiited to obtain currency without contradiction.

ROG lmCcs claim that will be recoguis=d in the future amonget cendidates for that preference will be their ability to do justice to the parts assigned to them. So far, the Society has fhirly established its title to public favor and sympathy, and there are few intelligent and patriotio citizens who will refuse to accord to it that alight pecuniary aid it must necessarily like the Choral Union, where no emoly ment attaches to the services rendered, whare honor is the only recompense, and whare the aspirants after distination are always more numerous than talented, the wenwling out process is one that, to be justly and impartially performed, requires no ordinary amount of juigment on the keitle drums are an indispensible item in the archestra, and those used at the con verts here last winter were kindly risonu presided very efficiently at the drums last year.

The Ottawa Choral Union, like others of its kind, had to fight its way into life against beary odds in the shape of private jealâ€"usies, as well as that public indifference with which similar orâ€" gamizations have almost invariably to contend at the outset. Thanks to the exertions of a few earnest and resolate men, its formation has been successfully accomplished; and, placed on trial before the public last winter, its eminent useful~ at the tim , not because, we had the slightest sympathy with the carpers, but because we believe. it to be in the inter eat of the Choral Union, and likely to be ness is now everywhere admisted. in view of the absense of any institution in Canada in the nature of a national academy of music,such as is to be found at the capiâ€" tal of almost every country in the civilized pensing tuition at rates within the means of all, it was felt by these gentliemen that an institution like the Choral Union, through whose medium instruction dould be effectively imparted in the higher been invariably rendered in a manner to critical audiences in attendance at the winter concerts.
