Augusta C0nstitutionalist.l
One way Of accounting for this
nnpalatable revelation, so far as the
Northern radicals are concerned, is
that the Southern people have, as a
mass, very large families, and have

the peculiar arts Of "ciyilizedn new
England. A large family in this
section, especially in rural districts,
is not considered either a disgrace
or incumbrance, but rather a crown
OF honor and glory, and, in the long
run, a blessing beyond compare.

British Columbia is becoming impatien
under what it conceiv@ to be a multiplicity
of wrongs inflicted upon it by the confedera-
ton, and asks the opinion of all nations upon
its right to withdraw from such an undesira-
BILE political connexion. One of her wrongs
is the failure of the Dominion to build the
railroad from Esquimault to Nanaimo. It
appears that the old Dominion promised to
build that portion of the Canada Pacific be-
fore it constructed the Lake Superior sections.
Another cause of complaint lies in the fact
that the adoption of a tariff by the Dominion
government has operated to the prejudice of
the Pacific end of the confederation. British
Columbia proposes to remedy the disadvan-
tages under which she labors by severing her
connection with the confederation and assum-
ing her old status as an independent province
with a governor and local legislature of her
own. In fact she talks secession.

WEAVER AND SPARKS.

A dispatch to the Inter Ocean says: "The
scene in the house between Weaver and
Sparks was disgraceful IN the extreme that
Sparks was the first offender, and that Weav-
er was not without fault, but did not lose the
respect of his friends" This may be so.
But when the representatives of the people
act like b~lackguards in the national house of
representatives they are apt to lose the res
pect of the people at large, however their
friends may feel about it. Both Sparks and
Weaver were at fault, and both are equally to
blame. There can be no excuse given-no
cause eau exist to justify these men in using
the language ascribed TO them. The house
OF representatives is supposed to be a DELHI
erative and dignified body, and its members
are supposed to be composed of gentlemen.
In all debates, no matter how exciting they
may become, it is expected members will pre-
serve the forms of decorum though their in
clinations may lead them to indulge in the
use of coarse epithets. In the scene referred
to, Sparks and Weaver not only applied vulgar
epithets to each other, but descended to the
level of DULLES and appeared ANXIOUS to back
their opinions with the weapons of the prize
fighter. The spectacle which they presented
to the civilized world is not calculated to in
spine much respect abroad for the popular
branch of our national congress. In other
countries they have less reprehensible meth
DDS of settling such difficulties, that while
they do not altogether command our endorse.

is to be hoped these honordbles will receive
the punishment at he hands of the house
that their display of hoodlumism demands.
