Dominion Notes,

The Dominion Parliament has under consid-
Grafton the long talked of Bale Verte canal
across the isthmus connecting New Brunswick
and Nova Scotia. An appropriation of 81 OOO,-
600 is asked for as a beginning, and its cost is
estimated from IS 100000 to $S,00O,0O0. If it
should be completed Portland would be 400
miles nearer Quebec by water The prospects
of the appropriation are not first rate.
The Prvy Council of Great Britain has de-
cided that the act of the New Brunswick Legis-
lature in authorizing the town of st. Stephens
to loan its credit to the Houlton Branch Rail-
road is constitutional.
The Dominion Parliament has again been
considering the New Brunswick free school
law. The PRIMER offered a resolution declar-
ing that any attempt on the part of the Do
miniou Parliament to interfere with the local
legislation of the provinces would be in viola
ton of the acts of confederation. The resolu-
ton was amended by adding clause requesting
an address to the British throne, praying that
it's influence may be exerted to repeal the parts
of the school laws of New Brunswick which
cause discomfort. The st. John Telegraph says
that these antagonistic resolutions will not
tend to elevate the character of the Parliament
of Canada in the eye of the public.
The St. John Telegraph says that the en-
largemeut of the canals in the provinces of
Ontario and Quebec call for total expenditure
present and prospective, of $21 ,635,0O0. The
present Parliament has voted IS, 763, 900 and
will probably appropriate 81 ,032, 900 more. Our
neighbors are in a fair way to be we'll taxed.

FAIL RIVER, March 1.-THE statement
made by Father McCabe at the church of the
Sacred Heart, vest erday, led some to believe
that the opera. ives would resume work this
morning but such was not the fact The strIk-
ing mills all remain closed except the Mer-
chants, which is increasing its number OF EN-
ployes daily. Rumor says the operatives will
return to work on Thursday next, but inquiry
at the rooms of the viewers committee does
not warrant this statement. A meeting OF the
various committees has been called.
Mr.. Sevey, of the Labor Journal, has received
u letter enclosing pOsGoffice money order for
$45. % from the workingmen of George Woods
& Co.'S organ factory, Cambrdgeport, in aid
OF the strikers. The letter states That the re-
port in the Boston Herald of the committee
from the labor council on the situation OF the
strikers at Fall River, led to the subscription.
Another by express encloses $54 from Rock
ford, Mass. 1t is learned from Mr. Seavey that
on the assurance of several agents aud stock
holders, in their private capacity, that the help
will receive the ten per cent. on the hrst OF
April. If they now return to work, and that it
is highly probable they will do SO on Thursday
next
The weavers committee have called mass
meeting of striking weavers at 3 O'Clock to-
morrow in Temple Hall. when the committee
will recommend that they all return to work,
Thursday morning, believing that the manu-
iacturers will return the 10 per cent on the LIST
of April IL is believed all the other branches
will also vote to return to their work on Thurs
day. .
Quite number of operatives from the differ
ent departments have already returned to the
old country and number of others have en-
gagged their passage and will go notwithstand
ing the strike has virtually ended. Since the
action of the weavers committee has become
known, several operatives have presented
themselves to thelMerchants mills and signified
their willingness to resume work Immediately,
and have been set to work. This afternoon
this mill has been running nearly 600 looms,
which is about one-rhird of the whole number
and ten pair of mules.

The proposition was repugnant to the constitu-

The Senate derived its powers from the consti

Congress to define the mode by which the Sen

steamers had left st. Johns, Newfoundland for
the seal fishing the harbor being frozen over.
March 9TH is the date allowed sailing vessels
by law and March 10th for steamers. The
harbor was never before known to be frozen
sufficient to prevent steamers leaving.

on The evening of December 2Sth, 1869, and
consequently the occasion referred TO by john
son must have been ID C. 9th. johnson was
not questioned further on this point, the de-
fence evidently having other witnesses to give
additional testimony on the subject.
Tilton's attention having been thus drawn to
the subject he called at the ST. Denis Hotel
Saturday and refreshed bis memory by an ex
animation of the register on the date in ques-
tiop. A reporter also made an examination
and found Johnst MS statement confirmed The
date of Dec. 9th bore in Tilton's handwriting
the following entries: "rheodore Titon,
BROOKLYN, N. Y, and Miss S. M. Lovejoy,
PRINCETON, M Mr.. Tilton was assigned to
room A and Miss Lovej0y to room az, which
ON examination were found to be on different
sides of a dark narrow hall, and instead of be-
ing directly opposite. were some distance
apart Mr.. Tilton made u memorandum to
this effect, and expressed himself satisfied with
the record and left the hotel
A further examination of the register shows
that Titon and Miss Lovejoy had been at the
hotel on a former occasion, Dec II, 1869, ac-
companied by Mrs. Tilton. The entries under
this date are as follows: "Theodore Tilton and
wife, Brooklyn" and miss Sophia Lovejoy,
Illinois" Tilton and his wife occupied room
No. so and Miss Lovejoy was some distance re-
moved in room No. 43 or So, as both numbers
appear on the book Tilton was asked by a
person who knew of this form of registra ton
why the plaintiffs lawyers had not brought out
the fact that Mrs. Tilton accompanied Mr.. Til
ton on the occasion referred to, and that the
Young lady, Miss Lovejoy, was thus relieved
from undue suspicion, but TiltOn made nc
answer. 1t is underst that the defence will
endeayor to show that Mrs Tilton did not &C
company her husband on this occasion.

we're to befall us. To say nothing of the odiou

lion of the old regime-to bring the matter
right down 10 a money basis-it would add
fuIly six hundred mi lion dollars TO the nation

Congress There would not be less than that

and thus enable the people to pay back from
the products of the soil what they received

If anybody doubts that these claims are
likely to have Democratic recognition he has
only to watch the course of the representatives
of that party since the war closed. There
have been steady, persistent and unremitt'ng
efforts on the part of the Republican majority
to cut off all such sutors for relief, so as to
preclude the possibility of their ever re-appear

cratic minority have been unit in opposition
to any such closing of the door against this
class of claimants from beginning to end
However, there is no special occasion for -ap-
prehension that such a contingency will arise.
There have been several preceding spasms of
opposition which threatened to overthrow the
Republican party, but they did not last long
