hailed from the hoop-pole district,
succeeding the the musical William,
and there was no reason why he
should not go for the spoils, so he
went. But the people Of his couthy
did not take the matter kindly, and
rather repudiated Charley at their
county convention. Still he kept
the money, nor manifested any incli-
nation to disgorge. So when the
Democracy of his district met at
Wapak, last week, they touched him
up lively on the salary steal, in their
resolutions, Charley felt inclined to
say something, and say it he did.
Bullying his way through the crowd,
he mounted the platform and, mop
ping his perspiring brow, proceeded
to say that he voted for the back
pay honestly, he took it honestly
and meant TO keep it. There was,
he said, "a. crazy, sentimental, pur-
blind daintiness about the public
mind just now which had been
worked up by fanatical press"
here the outcry began. "Shut up"
Get down" 4Pay it back" "Dry
up" "Resigns' rang from all parts
of the room. The gentleman iron
the Fifth district was surprised some
what, but he was more mad than
surprised. Shaking his fist at his
auditors he spake thusly: "Resign,
be ed. I'llsee you in hi first"
And the Democracy wilted, coyed
and browbeaten by the reckless man
ner of the Hon. c. N. They didn't
resolute any more, and will evident
ly come to regard the back-pay as a
purely Democratic method of re-
pletion.

Parliament which authorized the Government to
grant the charter, ia to be built 't.from
some point on or near Lake Nipissing
on the south shore thereof, to some point on
the ehore of the Pacific Ocean," The Company
is also to build branch line to Lake Superior.
and also one from penbina to Fort Garry. This
hitter branch is to be completed Dec. 81, 1874.
The first section Of the road extends from the
eastern terminus at Luke Nipissing, to Red
River the second from somo point Oh the east
ern section to Lake Superior; the central, or
third section, from Red River to point in
the longitude OF Fort Edmonton tho fourth
from Manitoba to the boundary limo of tho
United States and tho fifth from point IN tho
Longitude Of Fort Edmonton to the Pacific
Ocean. The whole is to be completed in ten
years from the LIST of July, 1871, unless moro
time is given by act Of Parliament.
The capital stock OF the Company is $40, ,000,-
600; 10 per cent Of which must be pnid in With
in one month from the signing Of the contract,
and this amount, On which per cent
is to be paid by the Government, is
to be held by it as security for
the completion of the road. No transfer OF
stock can be medo in less than SIX years without
the consent Of the Government: Lands GRO
granted in alternate sections for ten to twelve
miles On each side Of the road but il tho lands
are unfit for settlement the Company need not
select beyond one mile from the road, taking the
deficiency in moro favorable localities.
A bonus in money OF S90,00o,0o0 ia
given to the Company, to be paid
monthly as the road progresses. The Company
may connect with any roads in the United
States.
Such are some Of tho general features Of the
charter. Prodtng by our experience in building
Pacific Railways, it is to bo hoped tho Canadi-
ans will build their road honestly, and as cheap
us possible for money. From certain outgivings
that have have come to us, We strongly suspect
that they will run their line direct to the foot Of
Lake Superior, and crossing there will
connect By g line On the south shore OF that
lake with the Northern Pacific ct Superior City
or Duluth, and use that road [tho n. P.) to the
Red River. This would seem to be sound busi-
ness policy, and would 30 far lessen the immo-
date burden OF tho construction Of the
Canadian 1ine TINT it need not inter-
fcre with the more important work
Of enlarging the St. Lawrence :. Canala.
It can scarcely be doubted that the statesmen
OF the Dominion will appreciate the importance
Of this great work, and ut the earliest day posi-
bio make it an accomplished fact: i

THE CANADIAN PACIFIC RAILWAY.

THE CANADIAN PACIFIC RAILWAY.
We find in the Montreal Gazette the full text
Of the contract for the building at tho Canadian
Pacific Railway. Tho corporators and first
Board Of Directors are Sir Hugh Allan Adams,
George Archibald, Joseph Octave Besubien,
Jean Bapdste Beaudry, Egerton Ryerson
Burpee, Frederic William Cumberland,
Sanford Fleming, Robert Newton Hall,
John Sebastian Helmckca, Andrew Nc
Dermot. Donald Mc1nnes, Walter Stanley.
and John Walker. So far as we know them, no
stronger or better men can be found in the Do
uinion, and it really looks AZ If our Canadian
cousins mean business. In this they will have
the best wishes Of all Intelligent men on this
side of the line, for, whaeyer tends TO the devel-
opment and the wealth OF Canada, will promote
the interests OF the United states. It has seemed
to us that the wisest policy for the Statesmen
and capitalists Of the Dominion to pursue wzs TO
first open the st. Lawrence route, as well for
their own interests Is for ours; but, II they can
command the meaDs to construct both the canals
and the railways, 80 much the better. 4 synop-

such ns have not been eeen in Rome for many
years. The city is now filed all the time with
travellers and strangers.
The Church party affect to believe that Rome
is under some sort Of cloud, and hnve chosen
to suspend all festivity aud social enjoyments
go long as the King shali hold his Court in the
city; but daily this class is growing weaker.
The attractions Of tho Court, the royal enter
tainments, and tho general gayeties Of the day,
are drawing away the younger branches OF the
old families, who are tired OF self-denial. In
January, one Of the Oldest Princes, who had
large family Of young persons, gave ball, to
which not only eminent strangers, but:members
Of the Court. we're invited. Il gave great scandal
and WAS denounced in severe terms by the
staunch champions Of the Church; but there
was no back-down, aud the one ball has been
followed BY others. These people fail to under
stand why, when all the world ia coming to
Rome to enjoy themselves, the Romans alone
should mourn and weep over what they cannot
help, even il they wished to do so.
