Riel,s Rebellion.

The impression that seems to exist that
Louis Rie the leader of the Northwest re-
belllon, is cnly partially civilized half-breed
is far from correct. He is man of educa-
tion and refinement He is graduate of
Montreal college, lawyer by profession
and of fine personal appearance. When
Manitoba was formed into a province, the
half breeds living therein received each 24O
acres of land. Their confreres of the terri
tories, at that time, made very reasonable
and just demand that their claims be met in
the same manner and to the same extent.
This was not done, and the present disturb
ance is the result of this failure Of the Do
minion government to comply with this most
fair and reasonable request. The formulat-
ed list of Rleps present demands is as fol-
lows:
1 Subdivision into provinces of the northwest ter
ritories.
O. All the half breeds therein to receive the same
grant as the half-breeds of Manitoba received.

That Vindication.

We have carefully searched the opinion of
the Supreme Court to discover that "vindi-
cation" which Marshal Andrews's admirers
say he received from that tribunal, but we
fail tosfind it. The proceedings Of the board
OF aldermen were pronounced invalid be-
cause they were not in strict conformity
with the statute. The mayor did not pre-
side and the charges were not voted on sep
arately, aud for these reasons and these only,
Marshal Andrews was reinstated The de-
cision is based on lechnicalities and does not
touch the merits of the question. The claim
that it is a vindication is all nonsense. Tim
othy Tgigg's one hundred guns vindicated
Mr.. Andrews altogether better than the
opinion Of the court does.
