Oa boa member oa oar side said tbey bad no policy aad tbea wa bad tbe hoc. member for Weotworth (air.
Notman) who rose la bis pises aad told as that aot oaly bad tbey a policy, but that it weald be. pasted ia lb. morniot; and seat all over the coaatry. Leet there should be any mistaJta about it, i wiu read tbe aw, geaileaoaa'a words. (Mr.
Macdooaid then so ted from the GUM report of Mr- Vot-man's speech tbe statemeat to which he ba 1 alladed.) Tbea we bare tha Speaker of ibe Leialaive Council savin: tbey bad ao policy. How was all thia lo be recoaclled I bve just oe word to say oa tbe qaeatioa of a dissolution. Tbl House repreacuta, or to supposed to repre sent, people of Canada. lbs only ground oo wbicb a daeolouoo caa.oe urgeu ou a Sovereiga is, that from some circ*mstance tbe Hons ba ceased to represent tbe people. Hear.
If we trulv represent tbe people. there la aa nralexl for a dissolutioa if we do ni tha lata Premier i boa Id have made It CO ditioe of taking office that there should be a dissolution. If we do represent ibe people, it would be a criminal exercise of tbe prerogative to seod us home to onr eoustitaents The very feat of the boa. gentlemen enmiog dowe and moving for their own writ is proof ot tn correctness of my view of to ease. If tbe vote nt want of confidence on Moodev night bad been lost, tbey would bava been quite willing to have rone on in tbe Monte as it was.
ana snouiu bava heard nothing about its being to corrupt that a diaeolatioo. was necessary, as uxj say, the House to corrupt, a majority ot it would h. alaa mrranl lint uai mai Jrii, uw iwii in their favor tbey would have been quite willing to accept it. Can there be anything more cor rupt in intention man mat i toej we willing to move ia tbe waters, bo uait-r now dirt tbfv were, until they bad been condemned bv a vote of tbe House. As sooa as that wa tone thev found out bow corrupt the Hooa was Sapposlog they bad dissolved, what would thia Hniiaa have rone to tse couuirj swa oa tbe conduct ot too innlha hon.

Are voa ia favor of them cannot say, because I do not know what tbetr policy is. (Mrar, Dear ni iupj aauuuucu a policy to tbe Head of tbe Government wbom thv area worn ti advise Hear, bear.) No I tbey go him aad aay dissolve send them back to their constituents because it is convenient that we should have a majority. Let us try, tbey aav, we are in a scrape, we bave lost our seata, and let tbem all go back and ia the general scramble we will try what we can do we will get up another no pery cry no, that will not da this time bat we will find otbercries, greeo card and things of that kind, all aorta of elec tioneering cnes and tncka, tbe lairs are large and we are desperate gamblers and we will tbriw for tbem. (Cheers On wbat coo ilottonal oriocipta could tbe advise tbe Governor Gene ral to send the reoreaentativea back.
Tbe boo member for ro said in argument, when opposing the former government, that to far as Unoer Canada was concerned this Bouse did mnreaent the neoDte. At everv vote the boa member would lav there is another Upper Can ada majority against yoa. Did we not bear tbe Postmaster General, wbom 1 am sorry to see in such a scrape because be is worthy of a better fate. (Laughter.) Did be not appeal over and over again to tbe members for Lower Canada not to oppress upper VJanaaar now wen, can thev aav that Upper Canada ia not properly repreeeoted They accuse the Governor General of conspiring against toe people, when be to to in fact protecting the dearest tights of this House from the attacks of a set of political gamblera who wish to find some means or other by which tbey mty be able to bold office. Any maa of common sense who reads this correspondence will that it is unanswerable, aod from one end of tbe country to the other, tbe hon.
member will be cond mned for having, for tbe mere sake of power, made ao entire aaciifice of hi DricdDle. Applause.) Mr McGEE rose to rely, bat was not permit ted to do so. Mr. PiCHK attacked Mr. Turcotte, who had promised to speak upon ibe questions at issue, but who nevertheless always shirked tbe duty, and then he went on 10 remark upon tbe want of generosity ot ibe Opposition in refusing to Mr.

Mr. SICOTTE answered tfat tbe boev member had been asked by himself. (Laughter.) Ha knew tbat a sentleman bad been eilled be might same Mr. Gait but be had declined tbe task. Be was not personally (Mr.
Sicotte) a party to any arrangement In formiog aa Ad-miniatratioo. He thoniht under alt tbe circum stances it was rlib that the House should ad- fonra Tha Rnnae then adionrned i.n tbe motion of Mr. RiyGS AROUND TBS KARTH CURIOUS ASTROSOMICAL SPECULATIONS. In England the Scientific men hava recently been advancing aome rather singular astronomical speeilauoos. Oa the 12th of last month, Prof.
Nicbol, LL.D., delitered the third of a series of lectures on Astronomy, at Manchester. The subject treated aad reference chiefly to tbe ring of Saturn, aad other analogue phenomena. In tbe Introductory Lecture, the Professor made an observation respeettng there being a ring or probably several rings around the earth. Te tbia observatio be referred in his last leetare, and aaid wbat had been called the zodaical light was only visible here In the form of a cone, but an American astronomer, who bad goo to Japan and other favourable points, to investigate tbe subject, found that the cone opeoed on and extended across the heavens from hoiixon to borixon, and that be bad, by observations during tbe nig traced about three-fourth of tbe circle. This observer found tbat we bad been lookiot at the rings as we might do at a hoop bead edgewise, tha making it aasoma a conical form.
Ibe learned Professor now proceeded to say that tbe theory previously held that the sodaieal light proceeded from a Seoul on ring round the sua, was thought to be premature, and that the appearance came from a great nebulous ring sur-l rouoding tbe earth." Be explained by means of a diagram, that we tboold see tbe rays from this ring reflected more strongly from our borisoo than at its points higher up in tbe heavens. No ring around tbe sun could explain this appearance one round tbe earth could entirely. Tbey were forced also to the coacluskio that it waa not one ring only but perbap several. Its distance was about 100,000 mile it breadth its deptb waa not keowa tbe mass of mat. ter lo ft moat be enormous, and no donbt waa fulfilling some important function la regard to the earth and the solar ytm.
Tbe composition of Saturn's ng was then discussed, and aa account given of th change which bad been noticed ia them by vertoai observers, "from the dynamical conclusion of Laplace, combined with the changes asserted, the lecturer drevtbe Inference that the nog nave no coher ence tbat tney are neitoer vapor nor naia, ana gave aa a tbet ry of their constitution tbat they are composed of millions of asteroids circulating round the planet; tbe bright pata being where they are moat thickly strewed, and th dark lines the absence of tbem. There was a faint slaty colored ring withia the other, and this appeared to be gradually approaching tbe plaaet. It bad approached at the rate of SO mile a year lately at about 80 mile, a year; it would reach tbe planet itself ia 180 Car-rcxa or a MssHiiD."

and mentioned tbat a sfries of ob servations on tbe state of the temperature and weather wars king kept by a friend, Mr. Wffllam Tbom, of Quebec, As I doubt not such iniorma- tion will prove of Interest to those who contemplate a journ at tbe sea-eide, and also, notwithstanding their isolated character, to scientific men, I have traaacribed a page of bi memoranda, which gives tbe temperature and weather for tbe latter part of July, as follows, via. meoootJueaieofOgJ CD a a. 3i A ft er a "era fs- 3 S-" a a. er 8- From these data, it would appear tbat the average morning temperature for the past fortnight has been 60 the afternoon 66, and the evening 62 Daring the same period, the water temperature would average 60.
It is thus apparent that the southern Bhoret of the Lower St. Lawrence ptesent to families a resort to escape the intense beat of onr summer sun, and enjoy pleasant seabreezes and a temperature conducive to health and admirably adapted for open air exercise. Now that a line of steamers has been placed on the route from Quebec to Gasp, I donbt not other watering 'places will come into note, and ample opportunity will be afforded pleasure and health seekers to panne those objects within the borders of oar own country. Riuiouikl and Metis are likely to become placet of considerable resort ere long. There are now here a large number of families, though there are still some houses unlet, and the hotels have comparatively few visitors.
The casual visitors those coming only for a few dsvs. bavine much declined in number. The bard times. I suppose, have much to do with thu. Am I write, at 8 p.m., the North American is eaill ig gracefully past, gliding through the river, which stretches out a wide expanse in perfect calm its deen bine waters, as the shades of evening settle down upon tbem, the very picture of peace.
It is a pleating sight, this noble ves sel going grandly Oa ber way, despite tbe lack of wind and despite the Influences of the tide May she speed op tbe rest of ber long journey as pleasantly a she is aow doing. We Canadians bave real reason to take a national pride in tbe access of this line. We will yet command tbe ocean passenger traffic, and tbe thoroughfare for the Kxedns of Roopean emigration to tbe new world, will be through Canadian waters When to fbt 5l rentage, and those afforded by the new Mediterranean of ear Inland teas, shall be added tbe treat Atlantic and Pacifie Railway, this vsst nw land of British North America will assume its true position in the estimation of tbe world Advancing now, despite even the existing temporary check, we ahall yet, tt true to ourselves and oar manifest destiny, advance still more rtoidlv and surely. So mote it be. With these iottintrs I close my notes from this retreat on the Lower St.
Lawrence for tbe pre sent, au revotr. SUMMARY FOB THK MAIL. From the Canadian Maa or Montreal Gautte for Europe at ims Nothing has been spoken of during the week but the crisis." The excitement throughout the country has been and still continues to be very great. On Monday the new Ministry under the leadership of Mr. Geo.
Brown was announced in tbe two Houses of Parliament, and the announce ment was immediately followed by votes of want of confidence in both Houses in the Upper House by a majority of 16 to 8, in the Lower by one of 71 to 31. The new Ministry demanded a dissolution from the Governor, which His Excellency refused to grant on the grounds that the new Ministry did not possess the confidence of either House that the Parliament had only been elected eight months, and might be fairly supposed to represent the feelings of the people that ereat inconvenience would result from hold ing a general election at this busy season of the year, witn the harvest going on ana me pressure of the money crisis not passed away, and that some bills of great importance were now before the House which ought to be dealt with immediately. The Brown-Dorion Ministry resigned on Wednesday, and Mr. Gait was sent for bv His Excellency. He declined the task of forming a Ministry and His sent for Mr.
Cartier, the Lower Canadian Head of the former Minis-tryi 'who has succeeded in the formation of a Cabinet with the co-operation of Mr. J. A. Macdonald, his former colleague, as Attorney General West On Friday -the news of the successful 1 ying of the Atlantic Cable divided the public attention with the news from tbe Seat of the Government. The weather throughout tbe week has been very fine, with the exception of Tuesday night and Wednesday, when there was heavy rain.
I Fnu. On 8aturday evening, at a quarter to o'clock, a fir broke out in a stable in rear of the oremiae of Mr. Joseph Myette, Bonaventare Street, and soon extended it ravages to a neighboring shed. The Fire Brigade were soon oa the spot, but at first had some difficulty ia checking tbe "element," owing to an inadequate supply of This was soon remedied, and the fire was extinguished: in tbe space of ten minutes. It waa fortunate that no wind was stirring at tbe time, aa otherwise we would probably bave to record tbe destruction of a largo amount of property, th seat of tbe fire being entirely surrounded with wooden buildings, and there being a large amount of lumber ia a yard contiguous to tbe sceoe of disaster.
Tbe origin of tbe fire Is unknown, but is supposed to bave been acci-dentaL i A On Saturday evening, about past 8 o'clock, a fire was discovered inside tne snop occupied by Mr. Smith, as Carver and GUder, Great 8t James Street, but by tne early arrr of several Fire Companies was soon got under. Tbe Treasurer to tbe Pio-Nic of tbe Irish Protectant Benevolent Bociety has much pleasure in acknowledging, on behalf of the Association, five dollars from the gentleman woo won first prise (a silver medal) for the game of quoits. i Come!

Then sgaia tbey were wmuemt.
Then anin was their religion vilified, once more their endowments were threatened, and I do not know if it was not at the dictation of the hon. member that the member for North Ontario said that the nunneries were bouses of ill-fame.

So to-day, ft ia sot true that there to aa understanding, sot a written memoranda on thee points. I would like ts tee Ihe authority of the hoc member to deny that there was such a memorandum.
(Hear, hear.) That loaa a memorandum exists or did eiist, I haveao doubt, if tt did not tbe member for Port. neuf baa stated what was an true I do not believe that he would make a ttatemeat that was not true. If it is not true that hon member to either a fool or a knave, and I do not Relieve that to either. Either the boa. member for Toronto agreed to allow separate school, or else Mr.
D'ummond and o'her hv denied all their votes, and all tbeirlaasertiona, snd have given np that for which have been contending- all their Uvea. Those boo, members would aot allow their characters be mirched to sav tha political character cf the hon member for Toronto. Tbey all have to go before their constituents, and depend npoa it. they ill tell them that when they agreed to unite with Mr. crown, mey uw ampi that their interests and those of the people they should be fullv maintained.
It ia all very well totay that there waa ao such sgree-meet. I fc-lievs the L. Canadiaa members of tbe eoveroment took ample ear that tbey should not commit aa act of political eaicide or betray the Interest of tho who bad trusted them. A ehanra baa been made against this House that it did not auow tne a Opportunity of declaring their policy. Although those boo.
gentlemen were not here themseivee, one of their members waa tn the other House, and he stated distinctly that on not one of the great questions would their policy be declared intUsuotherseaaion. (Hear, hear.) Now what waa a voie of want of confidence in former limes If tbe leoraeeniatives of tbe people bad no eon- ia. thoaa who carried oa tbe tovernmeot they stopped the supplies, bat in con qaenee of the Immense monetary iniamuwii with the administration of public affairs it waa found bat to do so, waa to prejudice tbe whole financial affairs of the eountry, aad so that system wss given up, and tbe practice bow existing, sub tiiutei. The hon. gentleman came here and asksd to hav the whole control of the applies without aay one member knowing what their policy would be oa any one question before the country.
We-. war told that not only would tbey wichold their policy, bat that they had aot a policy to offer. We must trust that they would find some means of agreeing, that some of thewt would ted their principles to the others, or that tbey would all abend oa tneir principle auc 8-jch a proposition wss aever before made to a House of Parliament, and it waa met oy uis Rnnaa atatia that it had no eoofideaca in them. and could not consent to tbe proposition made in their behalf. Tbe boo.

As I am the bearer of my own letter I may say I noticed interested knots of people at all the railway stations anxious to bear ths news.
Of course opinion widely differed. Some people believed that Mr. Brown had badly sold' himself; others that be had been sold" by Mr. Macdonald and the Governor; but there was no doubt whatever about a sell" and ridiculous sosition. I noticed that the Grand Trunk Com paoy are making progress in taking the road back, where it so nearly touches the lake and is so apt to get out of order.
The road is in good order, and smooth enough to allow one to write readily in one's pocket-book with the tram in ruu motion We publish to-day a report of the speech of Mr. J. A. Macdonald in reply to the accusations of Mr. McGee against the Gover nor General.
It is unanswerable in its mam argument, and its severest passages were amply called for. The speech occupied two hours in its delivery, and is not fully reported. The reoorters are all tired out with this wearisome session. We understand that it is the intention of the Mechanics' Institute to illuminate their building on the occasion of the first message transmitted by the cable across tbe Atlantic. We understand there will also be torch light processions and other demonstrations.
a Special United States Hotel, I Saratoga, August 2nd, 1853. There is something magical in the manage' ment of these large American Hotels. In small office you see a proprietor and a clerk or two apparently not much occupied or any way confused answering hundreds of ques tions on all sorts of subjects yet while so coolly unconcerned there are guests arriving and departing by hundreds, and at this house either within its boundaries or quartered for sleeping in rooms in tha neighborhood there in linnrr some eiffht hundred persons who are received in and turned out with their bag- mure with the regularity of clock: work nouhtlaaa there are heads of departments" 'J through which orders proceed, and general A V.l.llwnlrlra XeajluacMy ta mniiimmpu. astray if the visitors were not trained to the svstem and adjusted Jo it.

Too European Hotel ia like travelling by poetcnaise, whicn moves fast or alow and as you will, according to your directions. The American system like the railroad knows only the multitude and ignores the individual who however great must like the insignificent abide the general regulations, with the certainty, however, that in moving with the crowd exactly as they move and taking no further thought he with his baggage will in a given number of hours be transported to his destination. Those who will take the railroad must not grumble if the railroad people will not arrange all things for their own individual Sneaking from eve measurement, I should sav the crround of this establishment was over ruw .1. law xeet iront Dy some aw leet ui uejjiix.

The quadrangle thus enclosed is shaded by tall elm, maple and locust trees, under which the sward is green witn pretty gravel wants. Fmntinrr on these a oiazza some fifteen feet wide runs round all the interior, in a portion of which far removed from the ladies' quarters hundreds of gentlemen are grouped day and evening talking and smoking.

While single s-entlemen and the rougher sort are on the piazza in rear, this portion is occupied by ladies and the elite of the gentlemen free from all In the evening, when all is lighted up, the parlor and side of the immense piazza filled with richly dressed women and well dressed men, grouped in conversational circles, and the centre is filled with a procession of promenaders, added to the endless groups on the rear piazza, you have a display before your eyes to which many parties and balls you have witnessed sink into insignificance. Ihe elegancies and evidences of wealth, are dazzling.
So man can heboid an assemblage ot females without selecting a queen among them." The queen here was certainly a Miss of New York one of those tall. graceful figures, with classic -features that realise the idea of a Princess or Countess in her own right or descending for an illustration -one that a fashionable modiste could afford to give daily change of dresses just for the pleasure of seeing them worn by one worthy of her art. If men's eyes were as piercing as women's, she would have been shot dead with the battery constantly directed against her while she walked up and down as unconcerned as if all the men were mere telegraph posts. People trash, caught run some risk of starvation in these immense hotels, for unless one has got the hang" of the rule that governs all, it is not easy to find a place, or what you wish to eat when yoa do find one. Entering the dining room yoa see chairs turned down along the endless tables, behind which, at stated intervals, stand black waiters, who, instead of welcoming you to the feast, tell you very preremptonly; you cannot fsit there, uem seats is eugajjou.

There im no better dinner than that which a mechanic's wife cooks for her husband and sets on tha table hot and savoury with her own hands. At hotels, where hundreds must bo fed at a time, vegetables will be cold and meats cold and slimy, and people out for the first time seldom can learn the art of eating a good dinner at one before they leave.

By 1 slerapS to tha Montreal Gaxetfe LEGISLATIVE COUNCIL, Toronto, August 7, 1858. Mr. Vankouduiet announced the compo sition of the Ministry, and Messrs. DeBla- qatere, Prince and Tacbe approved of it. They also compared it favorably with tbe late Administration.
Various bills were tbea passed, including that to amend tbe law of. Scire Facias and tbe law of wills. Tbe House then adjourned. LEGISLATIVE ASSEMBLY, Tobonto. August 7, 1858.
Mr. Cartier announced that a Ministry bad been formed. Tbe various members bad assumed various offices and bad tbea resigned them, after which they again assumed office as follows Cartier Premier and Attorney General East. J. A.

Mr. Cartier then explained the policy of tbe Government to be what was enunciated in the Speech from the Throne. In addition they would immediately communicate with tbe House first and the Lower Province about a Federal Union watch tbe working of tbe Tariff, and introduce ad valorem duties as soon as possible examine and regulate tbe working of tbe various departments, and leave tbe Seat of Government question to the action of the Legislature. Mr. "Wallbridge raised doubts as to the legality of shuffle by which the members of the Administration escaped the necessity of returnine- to then constituencies.
Tbe debate continued for the whole day without result. Tbe above telegram announces tbe new Ministry, with leading principles of policy. To these last we particularly ask the atten tion of our Montreal commercial readers. We believe Mr. Rose enters tbe Cabinet, NOTES FROM THE SEAT GOVERNMENT, (Eiiawioi tf Ot Mmtncl OautU."

BROWN MIKISWRY AND THS HOUSE. As nothing was done in the House yester day, I purpose to brin up a question I left lor runner oiscusaon in my last letter ujc quarrel of the Brown Ministry with tbe House of Assembly. I believe the public will admit, on consideration of tbe facts of tbe case, that Mr. Brown and his friends break down as completely in their quarrel with the House as in that with the Governor General. Tbat tbe House dealt out to tbem extraordinarily rough, sharp and stern justice, nobody can deny.
Tbey say it was without precedent. Certainly tbe like of it never occurred in this country, although tbe men who shine now tried a similar game oo their opponents in 135-. I believe the precedent cited by Mr. Sicotte exactly covered the case the circtunstances were somewhat different, the essential principle was the) same. But I see no use in talking about precedent in this case.
Practice makes precedent, and tbe actual facts must rovern practice. y. Iiv What are the faxts I Look at tiietn from the beginaing of the crisis. Ministry were in a minority oa tbe Queen's award an act in which they had no part, being only Sponsible for the reference. Tar; Brown at once said that was a rote of non- coofideBcc -Mr.
Macdonald denied it. -Mr Brcwa said that be would propose a test resolution. He did so, and Ministers had oa Ltbat a majority of eleven. By such a majo- a a I L'J nty tne Xl erase oirecuy vuveu urauuMw them. Still the previous vote bad placed them in a sinsularly embarrassing position It rendered it impossible for them to carry out an award eiven on their reierence Some of their friends bad also abandoned them.
AU this justified resignation but the point to be remembered is, that they resigned immediately after bavine received a direct vote of confidence in them. Whether or not they were right in doing so it is not necessary now to discuss. I think they were. Mr. Brown, the undoubted leader of the Opposition, was sent for.
He bad been calling out for tbe opportunity to form a Government, and bad declared tbat he could find a majority. So bad his friends for him. Tbe ears of people bad been dinned with the i cry "give us a -give us a cuauv.c. Well, thev rot a chance. His Excel- lonew it for Mr.
Brown. Had he not rinna ao. hut sent instead for any man what- oo th late Ministerial aide, tbe whole country would have rung with the cry of tin reDlatrase." patching up," Mr. Brown declared tbat be could form a Ministry, as he bad declared before that he could obtain a majority and he did form one. But how Br bringing: together tbe most incongruous Drommend, Lemieux and Tbibaudean, with tbe Clear rcriu of TJBoer Canada? men who were divided 00 all tbe great questions before the countrv, and men who baa recently oeen Krinirinx Brainst each Other VcTT rr.efuT cbartres.
These men with charac teristic insolence at once beld tbe whip of tiMJnrlnn over the House. Ibey aid so by knowingly false 'statements, in Mr. Brown's paper, by threats to members privately, and in their papers all over the coun try Tbey sent JHessrs. ramca ana xicue down to toe tioose witn a wuu uu unuicm, written paper, stating what measures they would allow to pass, without waste of, the public tin's. Afterwards they would, close the session, and bring down their policy in January next.
As I wrote betore.tne nouse feh itself insulted and trifled with by the whole proceeding, and so, by the crashing maiorhv aefore sent yoa down, in which all the doubtfuls joined, voted want of confi dence. tv. nuesfaoas before the country are Representation by Population, the Union, the Seat of Government, Separate Schools, tbe Double Majority, and the Usury Laws. On all of these the Brown Ministry were divided a fact which rendered explanation the very first step necessary. Tbey met th by saying that it was imposable for them to give in so short notice tbe details of their policy, an answer which was a paltry evasion.
They could bave said whether they were in favor of the principle of representation by population or not whc.n wing of the Ministry, aaa Wciples on this measure, xoey couiu Lave aaid if the- Uaiou.ia its present form should be maintained, and who of them had abandoaed tbnpriocip this measure. Tbey could have said wnere uj a 1 ...1 esl wawtlSa the Seat of jrovemmeni soouiu tbem had given ia oa this nwsure. Tbey could have said what tbey intended to do with Separate Schools, and who of them had abandoned their principles on this measure what they intended to-do with tbe Double Majority and the Usury Laws, and who of tbem had abandoned their principles ou these measures. Tbey were bound to bave made explanation on all w. nointa.
and the House would have been wanting in self respect if it bad not demanded it- If an admitted majority and well detaned party of known principles bad asked to be trusted, the request might have been granted without explanations and without, debate, but when a smal minority did so, exmiposed of aB sorts of odd and ends, the case became widely 1 The miBi SDrine- of our Clnttrmmmt ia the confidence of tie majority in th Ministry and a minority tha Seat of Government, wa did not know that it wooid be broushl no.

He Wk hia own count rr with the mark of Cain on hia brow what be then attempted he did not stay to see carried out he bad not the manliness did not dare to do himself what he endea- vmwd induce others to do: so here, when challenged him to the proof of the inaiouadon which he made, he waa afraid to stand to bis assertion. He now stands before tha country as one who makes an insinuation for the purpose of injuring an indrridual, helpless from his position, except that he has a claim upon every true-neartea man which that honorable gentleman knows not how to afford him. I ieaie the hon.

Mr. Speaker, on Wednesday last it was unknown to myself and to my colleagues that any motion would be made with reference to tha Seat of Gov-mnuait All that wo knew was, that we had -orotnised that the Government would give every -1 A h.

Ji opportunity mat tne queauua auuwu a thmt nm honorable member should fca-e an onoortunitv of arrivine at a conclusion upon it. The amendment was moved in a manner which no one anticipated. No one knew in what mode the question would be brought up, or how thm inu would be taken. The vote waa taken, and a majority voted in favor of the motion, againet ih votes of mvself and mv colleagues. At once.
and without going to our beds, we came to tha unanimous conclusion that it waa our duty to resign. In the morning we tout for those of our colleagues who were in the other branch of tha Legislature, and who could not join ua in the and wm cam to the onanimoua conclusion that wa should resign, and we at once placed onr resignations in the hands of Hia Excellency witb-ont a word of comment, and in a quarter of an hour omnia we made toe announcement in me tt hii resiimed. IT minutes aner that His Excellency told me that he bad sent for Mr. Brown, and that Sr. Brown aaa asaaa iov we ti.
ennault hia friends. After that 1 had no con versation, direct or indirect, with Hia IxeceDeney, I any aino, or oy meaiia auj -Mr. M-GEE Who did yon recommend to be ent for? Hon. J. A.
MACDOSALD I recommended ao one to be sent for, and in the reaenos of Mr. Cartiar, and, aa my word, will be reported, I wOj add ia the presence of His ExcaLency, who will be able to sav whether what I say is truth or falsehood, we placed our resignations ia bis hands, and. aa we bade him farewell, he said, -I ahall send for Mr. Brown at once." We had no further conversation, we had no further communication of any kind whatever, and what I aaid before I say now. I had no means of knowing, and I did not know what had taken place, and it was a matter of speculation with us what tha announcement would be in this House, and the first we heard was that Mr.
Gordon Brown had said that the Ministry had resigned. The hon. member has stated, that he heard in various parts of tha eountry that HU Excellency would not grant a dissolution. All that I can say ia this, and I speak in the presence of a number of hon. members, and they know whether what I say to true or not, when the question was put to me as to whether there would be a dissolution or not, I said I had no means of knowing, cheers and I would ask hon.
members if they did not come to me and ask if I could not give an assurance) as to what hia BxcellencT would do my answer waa the same, because" if I bad aaid that I had any assurance, I should have told a wilful and deliberate lie. Cheer. Any man of common Sanaa could aee that the idea of a diaaolution waa one that waa in the highest degree impossible. When any one spoke to me about it, I aaid that under no constitutional pretext whatever would hia excellency be justified in granting a dtsaolaaoo. Every hon.
member knowe well enough what difficulty attends a new alec tion, and how Bui i nto-Ehood there waa of one being Rnd- one ia anxioua to avoid the trouble of and it would have been highly aatactory if I could have given an assurance that there would be none. One hon. gentleman ln0' aakinc whether I would give any opinion about it, and I answered that I could give no aaaurance because I did not know. I refer to the hon. member for Victoria aa to tbe truth of this statement.
Hon. Mr. J. CAMXSOX It to perfectly correct (Cheers.) Hon. J.
A. MACDONALD But whue I state that there was no opinion given that there should ba a dissolution, we ail know that there were threats of a dissolution. (Hear, bear.) We all known that hon. members were told that if they did not giro the Gonwnment a fair trial, they would be sent back to their eonantuenta. That whip waa held over this House, and I venly be-fieve that the spirit of independence aroae through this House, and there waa a general fee-inx of indignation at being told that if they did not vote confidence where they had no confidence if they did not wallow all their promises if they did not cringe to the incoming Government, there would be a diaaolution.
(Cheers.) And let as just remember thia, that in the Glob of yesterdaT, for which the tote member for Toronto to morally and legally- responsible, and for which the articles are written at hia Instance or at hia dictation, we find it stated, as the alternative, that His Excellency's ministers aught prorogue or they might dieeolve. The article went on to aay, We are aware that some person have freely aaed the same of the Governor General. It is not oat province to know tho precise relations estabfianed between Hia Excellency and his present adviaera, but aura we are that no Premier would accept cffioa without a distinct understanding tmpoed, or expressed, that ha shall have all requisite op-portunity for carrying on the Government. Cheers. And thia appeared when that very Premier had a letter in hia pocket Informing him that His Excellency would make him no promise that would dissolve.
Cheer. There to a wflful and deliberate falsehood expressed in that tmper. Why, Sir, the very words correspond with His Excellency's letter. Tha pea that wrote that ardcla was in the hands of one who had seen the Mr. FZBBES The hon.
member for 3f ontreal aaya that yoa knew aS about that totter. Hon. J. A. MACDOS AUX How dare tbe hon.
memoarmaka such a statement I How does he know it? He haa no right to aay that in the presence of my statement. Supposing to ware true, doea th hon. member know uf Mr. Speaker, a man who states a thing to be tone, aot knowing it to be true, say what a) untrue. (Cheer.
The hon. member bad ao right to say so. No one haa told him; be haa no evidence of It, and I say that, so for as that boa. member to concaroed, hia statement to altogether arroneoua, i i itaatf erroneous. It appear that.
whila tha Giobt announces that no Premier would derrade himself by taking office unless be Wan aaaurance that be would be aJlowed to dissolve, the boo. member for Toronto did Inks Kmar informed that ba should get ao soeh assurance. Tbe boo. member employed tho -oarm indicated by the GUU this awrning "I tot SaUCr be aaid, "and I will ptoc ta Go-ifs-ca a tight ptocetluthe am ytoli I will tell aim what I order my editor to aay ia tv paper, and I will bufly him into doing to fCbeera.1 Be -oeJd us wa.awr ftJlmt.
