The anrigLteous bank uote and postage contract with an American liiiu waB iLrt'thtd out in parliumeni iiu Tliurstlay last and received a Kevore scoring froiii tbe Opposition, Lul not so severe as it deserved, li is enough to make every loyal Can- adian blush with shauie. For a 'foreign concern to assert that the art woik cannot be done in Cunada, is a iibcl, and to have tiiis repealed as fact by the government is addiii)^ (jiots insult to injury. Tht) new iasuc of jubilee postage stamps, which is to be placed on the raaiket on Juno 18, will be a direct refutation *i( this falsehood, they being the 'Workmanship of Canadians Ihrougii- out.

Campbell appears tu be playing something like tyranny towai'da his fam'ty, or exercising the function of Cavdinal Caraifa, who iuslitulfcd the " Libroium Prohibi- torum " of the Catholic church. Tbe world is continually changing, and conditions are ch'iii<.ing also, and more liberal interpretations are be- ing placed upon holy "vrit every day. Step back to the days of united Home and witness thu schism which took place ; go on to the days of the inquisition ; cross over to Puritan New England, and compare all these periods with our own times, and the marvellous changes in moral progress are apparent. The Blue Laws of Mus^iachnssetts are looked back upon with a shudder. Giles Coreys are no more. And jet, wo dare say, in those days had there been newspapers to protest against the iniquitiep prac- ticed in the name of religion they would have been very promptly '' stopped " or " iiide.ted " by those who had it in iheir power to dn so.
