warn Most of these articles enter into the c0nsructon

terias Our Legislature makes profession OF adher
ence to Protectonst doctrines but II is willing to go to
the extent of admitting either duty free at low rates
of duty all articles which enter into the construction Of
Others which are can conveniently be manufactured IN
the Province The reductions in the above list are tor
the most part intended boon to the shp-bulding
interests OF the Province But the principle of intro
duclng raw material at low rates has been entirely over
stepped in the case of types and printing materlalS
There is one extensive type mandatory IN Canada,
and so long it received an incidental protection OF ia
per cent il able to hold its own against foreign COM
petition but its position will be entirely different now
that 10 per cent is taken from its profits 1t is certain
that the House Of Commons acted differently lew
weeks AGO when Mr. Hume moved to repeal the duties
on foreign silks and several other articles manufactured
in England Then it was discovered that the revenue
which these articles produced could not DC spared ana
therefore the duties retained To the free list has
been added seeds of all kinds il being explained that
the term seeds is to include barley buckwhea beer
and bgg oats, rye, beans or peas.
Among the bills that received the Royal assent on
Friday last was one relating to the University OF 10
ronto an an plv endowed Provincial institution. Inc
College and University functions have been separated
The University will hereafter consist OF Board OF tx
aniners for degrees after the model OF the LONDON UNI
verstv A University College is created, supported ny
the University endowment. In this College no religious
tests are to be required from either students or Oes
an thar the institution has broad Provincial basis
The same Professors as those which now hold chairs IN
Toronto University will be the Professors IN UnVersy
College with the exception OF the Professors Oh La" anu
Medicine both Of which faculties are hereafter pro-
bibted from teaching in University College; Inc
Grounds ON which this change has been defended are
that although the State may undertake to pro-
vide a literary education which Is common
tothe doctor the lawyer and the merchant 1t cannot I'M
dertake to provide with professions that tne pro-
fessons of law and medicine lucrative to those VINO
c-ll aud tbprp WhV the puDuC
sbould proyide them to these classes grautousy than
that should give farms to farmers and goods to ner
chants, doctors or lawyers profession being held as
much his property the more tangible properly vi oler
classes: and that there is besides necessity for the
pubc to furnish the Of acquiring these lucrative
professions when il is already amply and just as well
done by private competition Against the change there
has been the natural railing of the professors to be DIS
pOssessed-with years salary they have not earned
and GOOD deal of general denunciatOn the eXclsion Oh
these two faculties having been declared tantamount to
the destruction of the University But oil argument
against the change impartial observer has been aOe 10
discover the slightest particle
7 doubt if the Supplementary School Bill of Upper
Canada too welcome TO the Roman Catholic Bishop oil
Toronto but il in such shape TO preclude the pos
sibily of complaint on his part The Roman Catholics
had asked-demanded- fiscal adjustment between the
separate and common schools and IT has not been de
MED The Separatists have been told they shall have
the liberty of supporting ther separate schools at their
own expense SO far the fiscal part of the question
goes the answer is manifesy equitable, that is i'm
possible to cayil at it, and of course the Government
proposition is received by the besegng parties as set
tlement of the question If has been alleged there
was desire obtain the power of applying the school
taxes ndscrminatey levied on the community to the
support of sectaran schools the object of the aggressive
parties has entirely failed.
1t seems we have not reached the time when civil
marriage will be held sufficient. The Government bill,
neither requiring nor prohibiting any form of religious
ceremony in marriage is to be altered so as to render
religious ceremony indispensable in marriage The ar
puments produced against the bill have been numerous
but excessively weak and of them not little anus
ing For instance, Catholic journal pronounces any
licious ceremony that Protestant bishop OF minister
might be able to perform utterly worthless in reality, but
argues that fhose before whom it is used are impressed
and deluded with it, the pious fraud will be valuable to
the extent of the deception 1t is not the strength of
the arguments but the number of those using them that
will prevent at presentrom practically regarding mar
rage as civil ceremony. The ruling powers here are
not quite strong Napoleon III on this subject of
civil marriage.
The election of member of the Legislative Assem-
bly, for this city terminated this afternoon at O'clock in
