PARLIAMENTARY NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.
TO THE UNITED STATES.
QUEBEC. Jan. 25.-In the House of Assem-
bly, to-day motion was introduced to take
into consideration the lamentable immigration
of inhabitants of the Province of Quebec to
the United States, and to devise means for the
arrest of the same. The mover spoke at great
length in support of the motion, and pointed
out the source of this fgreat evil. There was
little o lcouragement given to settlers in the
EASTERN townships, and want of sufficient
industrial and manufacturing resources. He
proposed that the question of manufactures
receive earnest attention, and liberal home
stead law similar to that in operation in the
States be enacted.

Death of a Famous WhaIeman.

We learn from the New Haven Journal that
Captain William Wiltshire CLARK died at his
residence in that city, on Saturday last after an
ilpe which had partially confined him to his
house for a few months. Captain Clark was an
enteTprising whaling master, and his voyages
resulted in large profits TO the owners OF the
vessels he commanded He had visited all the
whaling grounds and was acquainted with
nearly every seaport in the world. He fret
sailed as captain Tor Williams & Barns, OF New
London, making several voyages for them. He
made two voyages in the Electra. and two in the
Mogul, both out OF New London. In 1860 he
fitted out and took command of the Ocean, in
which ship he was a large owner. Taking hls
wife with him, he sailed on a voyage which
lasted SIX years. After his return, in 1866 he
lost his wife, retired from the business, and
lived quiet life enjoying the respect OF
the numerous friends made by his amiable aud
GENIAL nature. His funeral was conducted by
the Masonic fraternity. Captain Clark received
his Christian name from William Wiltshire, an
Euglishman. aud British consul IN Arabia, who
rescued Captain Clark's father and several other
shlpwrecked American sailors, who had been
subjected to the most cruel suderngs, and
whose adventures formed the subject o nara,
tive that was one of the most popular books oi
travel with our grandtatheIs.
