OTTAWA, After routine business, to go into Committee on Bill. Mr. Holton made some remarks con. demnatory of the scheme :as a. comproâ€" mise between incompatil) ale syst» ems. Sir George E. Cartier stated his iu-T: dividual Opiaie-m that the Government were better than bank security, being based on the credit of the whole country. It was especially desirable that the Gov- ernment should issue the notes of small denomination, which went into the hands of poor ptople. The wealthier classes and merchants wouid understand better the credit of the banks, issuing larger notes. The Bank of Montreal had seen more clearly the effect of the Provincial Notes Act. than the other banks, and had availed itself of it. Mr. Cartwright said other banks had seen cieariy enough the efi'cctsof the measure in the interest of the hanks, hut, in Ontario, they saw that availing themselves of it. would have caused great inconvenience to the pullie. Mr. Mackenzie condemned the issue of Dominion news as being a. mode of obtaining money for the Government. Mr. Jones approved of the Govern- ment. issue of notes, and held that. the Finance Minister was greatly to be ap- plauded for the issue of fractional notes, in do away with the siivcr nuisance. Messrs. Street and Gibbs warmly condemned Sir Geo. E. Cartier for: say- ing that the Dominion notes were better than bank notes. Nothing could be beuer than Balk notes redeemable in gold. - - n‘. ‘ ‘ -â€"__,‘ C Mr. Cartwright. said he had an amend- ment to move, to exempt. the banks from holding. a part of their reserves in Dc; minion notes, provided they withdrew {may 51m issue of circulation. Sir Francis 11inch said the Govern- ment. would utterly oppose tlie amend- ment, which was moved in the interest of the Bank of Montreal. It. would introduce in another form an evil they magi}: to cure, namely, a system that. was not: uniform. Mr. Cartwright would not move amendment till concurrence in the port of the Committee came up. ‘ I- â€"L._2L.. y--- -_ )Tr.

Garry daily. Governor Dmald Smith, who left Fort Garry on March 195.11, started to Canada to: day, as also did Robert Hardissey, C. F. McCarty, C. Mace, Lynch, and the driver. Governor Smith says the Council of the } Provisional Government, twenty eight! members, met at Fort Garry on the lSth' 1 March, and were still in session when he I‘ left. They were discussing plans for the adjustment of the present difficulty, and the basis of the satisfactory arrangement! with Canada. On the assembling of the Council 011 the 181h, Major Boulton and one half-breed of the prisoners held, were released, and no doubt all have been re- leased by this time. He believes the ditliculties can be adjusted without further trouble or bloodshed. Everything was ‘ quiet when he left Fort Garry. Governor lSmith and the pa1ty travelled rapidly, pass- ’ iug several other parties who had left he- l fore he d1d,and who have not yet arrived 3 at St. Cloud. 1 l Two gentlemen named Hair and Setter, l “ who arrived in Toronto on.

Mr. Mairâ€"Yes. most assuredly. He was . a murdered in cold blood. He escaped with me and remained at the Portage. He + u Ejoined in the release movement, and was i v amongst the captured. He got intelligence ! c l of their intention to shoot him about mid- i inight on Thursday, Feb. as. He did not ibelieve it. Thought it was bravado, thei‘t lsame as had been played off on Boulton. ll 1 However, next day, he was assured that he i J '. would be shot at 12 o’clock. The Rev. I ‘ Mr. Young becoming aware of the deter- l 1 mination, visited him, and every effort was i; I ‘ made to change the sentence. Smith as- ' lsured me on the way down that he had i ‘uSed every means to have the sentencel commuted. At one o’clock on Friday, the l ‘ 4th February, Scott was taken outside thei ‘ walls of Fort Garry. He requested per- mission to return to his friends in prison, to wish them farewell. It was granted. IIe remarked when leaving, that this was I “a cold blooded murder.” He was shot 3 . immediately opposite the small gate in view ‘i rl of the town. A bandage was placed over i _ I his eyes, and he was placed in a kneeling l e l posture. He requested that the bandagel be tightened, before he was shot. Mr. e 1 Young said the last prayer with him, and dlScott was shot, three balls entering his ltibody, and he fell to the ground, but not nldead.
