A Washington despatcb says: The fol- lowing p‘assage occurs in the letter of Po Leo XIII. to Bishop Ireland, of St. Pau : “ Above all. we have rejoiced to learn with what energy and zeal. by means of various excellent associations, and especially through the Catholic Abstinence U nipn, you combat the destructive vice of intem- perance. For it is well known to us how ruinous. how deplorable is the in jury both to faith and to morals that is to be feared from intemgcrance in drink. Nor can we. sufliciently praise theprelates of the United States. who recently in the Plenary Coun- cil of Baltimore with weightiest words con- demned this abuse. declaring it to be a perpetual incentive to sin and a fruitful root of all evils. bringing the families of the intemperate into the direst ruin and draw- ing number-less souls into everlasting per- dition. llencc we esteem worthy of all commendation the noble resolve of your pious associations, by which they pledge themselves to abstain totally from all kinds of intoxicating drink. Nor can it be at all doubted that this determination is the proper and the truly efficacious remedy for this very great evil; and that so much the more strongly will all be induced to put this bridle upon appetite by how much the greater are the dignity and influence of those who give the example. ' ‘ " Let pastors, therefore. do their best to drive the plague of intemperanco from the fold of Christ by assiduous preaching and exhor- tation, and to shine before all as models of abstinence, that so many calamities with which this vice threatens both Church and State may by their strenuous endeavors bet averted." General Middleton Thinks the Force Should be Reduced and Better Drilled. In his last annual re ort to the Minister 0! Militia, General MidSIeton an a: “After unother year‘s ekperience I beg enve sgsiu to urge the absolute necessity of reducing the strength of the force. It stands now on paper (including the Schools of Instruc- tion! on consisting of 37,346 men. This is real y more than the correct strength. as I fear the same men uppenr in more than one regiment. but still this is a much greater number of men than can be pro- perly or usefully trained, considering the mone voted for the purpose.” General Midd eton believes that in order to make the whole force eiiicient every soldier should be called out for at least sixteen days every year of his service. and this. he ssys, can only be done by reducing the force.

Mr. Shakespeare called the attention of the Government tothe statement in the Citizen, local Government organ, that there was a. rumor the House would adjourn for a week ovu- Asrension Day and the Quecn’sBirth- day. He objected to this as a waste of time. and hoped it would not be agreed to, Thwsolution was amended so as to cover an ordvr for the papers. and was carried Sir John Macdcfiald said he could not say exactly. as he did not recollect the faots of the case referred to. Doubtless the] Department had done what it thought rig 1t. Sir John Macdonald did not object tothe hon. member bringing this matter up, but he thought it would have been better had it been brought up in the shape of a reso- lutirn calling for papeis on the subject. we apponitnient or a committee was not the best way to bring into practical use papers in possession of the Government. This was a Very difficult question. In the first place. it was a very old claim, three- quarters of a century old at least. It was a legal question also, and one involving a. large sum of money. The lands claimed were not now in possession of the Crown. It came to this : If the claimof the Indians was conceded the Province of Ontario must compensate the Indians for the land sold. The proper way to settle this question was to get alegal decision upon it, and to do that it should be brought before the Supreme Court. 110 could not accede to this resolution for a committee. but if the hon. gentleman would change his motion so as to cover an order for papers he Would support it and have the papers brought down early. Mr. Mills asked how it was that the First Minister insisted upon following this course. while in the case of the Mississauga Indians of the Credit. just before the elections, he decided in a case quite as old as this, and one depending upon legal inter- pretation, without appealing to the courts, a claim involving abut $60,000. Mr. Preteen (Erwinmoved for a special commit . e to examine and report upon the claim of the Six Nations Indians as set forth in their petition presented to the House. He exglainsd that on the 25th October. 178-1, Governor Frederic Holdi- mand granted to the Mohawks a tract of land six miles wide on each side of the Grand River from the mouth to the source, but by a subsequent deed made by the Governor-General the grant was limited to a point for miles further south, namely. the north oundary of the township of Nichol in the county of Wellington. The Indians wanted their title under Haldi- mand’s grant confirmed; that is ,to say, they wanted their title confirmed to a tract of land six miles wide on either side of the Grand River, and extending from the north boundary of the township of Nichol to the source of the Grand River, a distance of forty miles. They lost their territoryin the United States through their loyalty. and because of their loyalty the'King gave them six miles on either side of the Grand River from its mouth to its source, the land upon part of which their descendants now lived. He did not pretend for a moment that‘the Government had been negligent in this matter. but the Superin- tendent-General of Indian Affairs had much to do. and,'perhaps, had not investi- gated this matter fully. Ile (Mr. Pater- son) did not urge the claim on any other ground than that of reason and justice, and the Indians themselves would not claim more than the principles of right and justice would give them. If they had a committee the {nets could be got at in a way in which the Indians felt had not yet been reached by the authorities. If some such step were not taken he could not but feel that there would be a belief on the part: of the Indiana that they had been neglected, that theirtjnst claims had not. been fully considered. Sir Charles Tuppcr replying to Mr. Perry, said 0. sum in addition to the usual subsidy has been placed to the credit of Prince Edward Island, from list July, 1886, to date. 'It was the intention of the Gov- ernment to ask Parliament at its resent session to authorise agrant of an ad itional subsidy of $20,000 per unnum for Prince Edward Island.

Mr. Matt said that out of every $1.000 spent on this park 3009 would be paid by taxpayers who could never get the benefit of the springs or of the park. In fact, it was another instance of the policy of this Government in taxing the poor for the luxuries of the rich. « The committee rose and 'rvlmrtedtbe’Blli: The House went into committee on the Bill respecting the representation of the Nortlmest Territories in the Senate. Mr. Burdette pointed out that the C.l’.R. and many other parties appeared to have interests in the park. which would have to be disposed of before it could be said that the park was a national park. Was the Government going into the hotel business, and if so was it to be Conducted on Scott Act principles ? The Cabinet would be divided on that question. Was the Gov- ernment going to turn itself into a. lumber- inv,‘I firm or a gold-mining company ? Some definite knowledge of what they were going to do should be given to the House before they voted money. It was said these waters had marvellous healing powers. He hoped so. It was said they cured cripples. He trusted they cured some other than political cripples. whose pockets were filled through the money expended there. There was nothing new in building a. road or a bridge, or in landscape gardening; upon even a large scale, that an estimate of the cost could not be given. The powers asked for were too extensive to be given to any Government. If it were shown in d. reasonable way that the expenditure was necessary and powers were asked for which could not be used to destroy the very object for which this Bill was imposedâ€"tho nmking of a national park-â€" 0 would go with the Government in making a reason- able expenditure. Sir R. Cartwrjght objected most strongly 'tp the expenditure of money on the Govez- uor-Gcneml’s warrant on such a purpose as this, and quoted the Act to show that it was only in cases of pressing emergency that such an Act was authorized. Mr.Blakeâ€"~I have been greatly struck in the course of this debate. and more so perhaps by the last 5 eeh than by any other, win the won ertul properties of this water. These springs are certainly the most extraordinary springs I ever heard of. It is not only the descriptions which have been given of their curative properties by members, but it is the effect that the ‘water has had on themselves. We see these effects. They produce an im- mense exaltation of sentiment, a wonderful development of the poetical faculty, and union and concord between gentlemen who ordinarily think very differently on almost every other topic. Why, the county of Perth, for the first time sinceI have known it, seems to be united. My hon. friend from the North Riding (Mr. Hesson) and my hon. friend from the South Riding (Mr. Trow) shake hands across the Band Springs and' each of them drops into poetry on the subject. And not merely are they poetical, not merely is there an expansion of mind and an elevation of feeling. but there is a regardlessness of base pecuniary considerations that shows not merely that the springs may be of use to those who are lucky enough to be able to pay their fares on the C. P. 1%., but that there should be an appropriation to bring them to every man‘s door. One hon. gentleman on this side said that if we wanted to sell them we could get 1,000 per cent. on the expenditure and the First Minister has just repeated the same. Now, 1,000 per cent. on our expenditure would be just $1,000,000, and springs that can pro‘ dues in the Parliament of Canada that statement, seriously made on one side and emphasized by the leader of the (la-rm. ment on the other. are certainly spr ngs that the nation should keep to itself. Sir John Macdonald said if the Govern- ment were to g: ant this land on an terms to the Canadian Pacific there woul be an outcry raised of further favoritism to that road. He dwelt upon the advantages of the place as a resort for seekers of the beautiful and as a sanitarium. The Gov- ernment would be fully recouped by the lease and sale of lots and by the leases of privileges of the curative waters for all the expenditure. It was necessary to keep speculators and squatters out. for it was easy to establish claims which it would be very ditlicult to get rid of. Travellers, in whose eye for the beautiful he had more confidence than in his own, told him the park site was well chosen and the laying out in drive ways was all that couldbe desired. People were flocking into the place. and it was felt necessary to bring into use the curative waters as soon as possible, and for that reason the expendi- ture had been undertaken, the Government trusting to the House to ratify that expenditure. authority 01 the Homo the following «all: On Sept. 7th. 1886. $10,000 ; on Dec. 17th. $5,000; on April 14th. 1887. ”1.000 ; making altogether 840,000, 0! which {u the greater put wu spout while the 0030 w! legally in smiley. _ _ u. ‘ Mr. Kirk protested 3min" the whole scheme.

Then there was 032,000 for salaries and expenses of the Commissioners on rebel losses. 0:: March 11th there was ”Q5000 for seed grain to settlers in Assinibots end Saskatchewan. Then, one of the last things which should have been psid with- out authority of the House. wes the sum 00 84.000 to pay the St. Catharines Milling Company the costs of the suit brought by the Ontario Government against them. There were very large expenditures made on the Intorcolonial Railway, amounting in all to $600,000.

Sir John Maodonald said the charges made against the Indian Department were made by one not now a member of the House. when he $Sir John) was not present, and not being ab e on his return to give the facts he promised they would belookedinto by a commission. But after the session he found those charges were foundationless and false, and only astatcment of the facts was necessary. That statementwas printed and circulated on the authority of the department. N o charges made since the world began were more false and outrageous than those made in this case,aud the answer was complete. Mr. Paterson (Brant) pointed to the {act that under the Governor-General’s war- rant money had been paid for an Indian Commission, showing that it was a matter of urgency, but there was nothing to show tliat the Indian Commission had been appointed. He quoted the Prime Minis- ter’s declaration last session after charges were made against the Indian Department of gross malfeasance, that a commission would be appointed to examine into the report: , Mr. Mitchell said the Government should see to it that the amounts put in the Estimates should be more in accord with what the expenditure would really be.

The Bill was read a. first time. The following Government Bills were read a third time and passed : Sir John Macdunnld intimated that the estimates would be laid on the table on Monday next, and the budget speech would be delivered on the following Thursday, on condition that Mr. Watson would postpone the consideration of his resolutions on dis- nllowancv, which were to be the first ofder fogthalt _duy._ Sir John'Macdoxmld said that a. memo- randum had been handed to him. signed by more than 1m” tim-nmmbermusking that the House should adjourn for a week from Wednesday next.
