The Government Of NJ. Tirard
sustained on Monday what WAS real
ly, though not ~nominalIy, a serious
defeat. The Colonial Ministry ask
ed &8O0,OOO for lonquin but the Bo-
napartiSts, Legitimists, and Radicals
united in refusing the grant, upon
the ground that the Colony consumed
too many men and too much money.
NJ. Lanessanf, who had recently
returned from the Colony, described
the acknowledgements as frightful, the
natives being taxed to death, whole
trades driven away by Protection
ist tariffs, and the revenues and
grants from home expended on
the Army and a preposterous number
of imported French officials. It would
have been cheaper to give them per-
manent %sinecures than to conquer
TOnquin for their benefit. The
Chamber, which detests NJ. Ferry,
and TOnquin on accoun of him,
therefore rejected the vote, 256 vot-

be made by Pekin to regain The pro-
vince of Manchooria, the loss OF which

that Canada keeps her fish up 10 a

that the Senate, which does not tor
