A Settlement OF Arrears

A similar necessity has been acknowledged
in the case of the crofters of Scotland
Muc. greater had been the need of ireland
where arrears were running without limit and
led to the paralysis of the farmer and the
engagement and unceasing flow of evictions
Evctlons upon arrears prevented the tenan,
from obtaining the bene lit of judicial rent.
Hear, hear,
If the government meant it at heart, il
instead OF supporting landlords they meant to
relieve distressed tenants, they would deal
with arrears instead of dangerous measure
which provided machinery for pr venting
the reduction of rents, and which afford ia
cilities for augmenting rents and multiplying
eyictons with all their horrible ircideDts.
lie asked the House TO intervene and pre-
vent recurrence of the mischief too certain
to happen perhaps on greatly augmented
scale under the governments policy. Lee

House aud country would perceive that they
were dealing with land purchase that was
not incompatible with dealing with arrears.
The government was prepared to deal with
arrears in due time. (liear, hear.
Mr.. . Brlen maintained that the bill would
make rich tenants richer. but leave the poor
cottlers in the west in as bad a position as

English gold into the pockets of Irish land
lords
Mr.. Campbell Bonnerman, liberal, severe
ly censured the manner in which the gov

House. Before proposing the extension
there ought to have been select committee
to inquire into the working of the Ashburne

1t is of course too early to speak definitely
in regard to the building prosp. cts for the
coming season. Already some well matured
plans are in shape for enterprises Of con
siderable magnitude, work upon which will
be commenced early in the season. The
Legislature at its last session made an ap-
preparation Of $50, ,o00-tae highest limit
which the trustees are allowed 10 s1penl in
one season for such purposes-to the Insane
Hospital for the erection Of new
Pavilion builling, which i. greatly needed
by The demands Of the Institution When
the several contractors who examined the
plans for the same came to examine then.
their lowest estimates for the proposed
building was about s45 900. As no co.,
tractor was willing to undertake the Job for
the sum appropriated, the work va. no,
commenced the past spring and the m )ns y
will revert to the irea'ury. 1t is quite Ger

bliliinz, or the sum 10 be Appropriated will
be modified the coming winter. and an ap-
preparation sufficient to erect such building
az the Hospital .eds will be made by the
Legislature at its neIr session. Should such
be the case, vork upon it will begin early
in the spring.
