The most memorable characteristic of the prosenik session of Tho House of commons will to the series of recriminations indulged in by individual members Over alleged broaches of Tho Independence of Parlia ment act. Tho old fable of the pot and the Kettle discussing Tho sombre question which was Tho blackest has been altogether thrown into Tho Shade by the proceedings at Ottawa. The accusation of Tho opposition press against or. Am Lin speaker of the Jituso with reference to his accepting from Tho postal department a contract for print ing in new Brunswick was followed by a motion for his expulsion for an alleged breach of the Independence of parliament act. This summary method of dealing with Tho charge was rejected Tho matter being very properly referred to Tho committee on privileges and elections in order that the matter might to thoroughly investigated and reported upon before i to House was asked to pass its judgment. Tho attempt of the opposition to turn the speaker of he in oust out of his seat naturally roused the Iro of the Ministeri lists who when once their attention was directed in that particular Channel found no difficulty in raking up various circumstances tending to establish equally culpable breaches of the Independence of parliament act with that of the Lii St commoner of the Dominion is assumed to have been guilty. Thus or. Cur rior one of the members for Ottawa was asserted to Luwe furnished lumber to the or Mont. Then capt. Norris Tho member for Lincoln was charged with participating in the profits accruing from a contract Given to a firm of Steamboat proprietors of which to is a member. Next we Hoar that Tho minister of customs is accused of being interested in Tho business of his brother at St. Johns n. 15., and so receiving a share of parliamentary appropriations. His accuser or. Domville the member for King s. N. 15., is promptly met with a denial accompanied by an intimation that his own seat would to overturned in account or his having furnished Iron to Tho government. Next or. Tupper. That dreadfully prolix opposition orator on financial subjects is informed that to too must be expelled on account of his being Tho lessor of a building used As a tic Ket office for the inter colonial railway. Then again or. Another opposition member must lose his seat because reputation and personal Security of Tho poo Pic s representatives. P. The above was in Typo out correspondent at Ottawa has furnished us with another Batch of names of those who Are Likely to lose their seats owing to hav ing had dealings with the cover Ament. In Tho list appear Tho names of two Manitoba members. Lab Irish Columbia. San Fua Noison april Victoria i has additional particulars of Tho Mur Der by the indians of a portion of the Pas sengers and Crow of Tho Steamer s. Wright. Tho Story is to Tho purport that n number of Whit men came ashore in a boat that they had with them Many papers and a Largo sum of Money in Gold and Silver. They bargained with a party of Kamhout indians who were bound to Victoria to take them to fort Kupert for each Tho White men were without arms and when night Camo on and All Worts asleep the indians murdered them and threw the bodies into the sea after stripping them of every thing of value. Tho Money in the Box was divided by the Savages who then Camo on to Victoria. With respect to the destruction of the Village sergeant Bloomfield land of with three others from the rocket and demanded four men who Are suspected of complicity in Tho murders. The indians Camo out armed and to give up the men. Tho party then secured two of the suspected Savages and made for their boat. They were fired on but got Back to the ship in safety. Capt. Harris then fired Blank cartridges and the indians ran away. The Village was then shelled and Ali Edwards burned. No no was killed. I i ret 011. As a specimen of to undeveloped re sources of this portion of the Dominion to notice the result of the explorations of a professor Nichols who has spent two months prospecting for a company. In one Section unusually Rich deposits of Iron Ore were found so situated on Mountain slopes As id readily mined by self draining tunnels. Not far from several extensive scums of Coal were discovered one of them Hoven act thick the others fourteen feet and in the Samo Vicinity a bed of Cement Stone was found which on being ground and tested proved to yield a Good Urt Irle of Cement.

Surely there should be some exception to the wholesale operation of such a Law circumstanced May arise and have Arisen where 110113 but members of parliament arc Able to furnish the particular goods or other facilities which the government require and it rooms in such Case altogether unreasonable to de Prive the Public service of the benefits Only to be obtained from a particular so co because Tho party controlling it happens to enjoy the Confidence of his fellow citizens to the extent of representing their views in parliament. While firmly convinced of the necessity of prohibiting members from receiving bribes which might affect the Independence of their votes in Tho House it seems intolerable that a member should to liable to lose his teat simply because his firm has received some very trifling pay ment from government in the Ordinary Way of business and without any corrupt intent on either Side. The question is undoubtedly a difficult one to Deal with but it devolves upon statesmen to devise some Means by which Tho Independence of members of parliament May be secured without injury to the Public interests or to the political principal objection of Tho granting of such a privilege was that the Harbor accommodation at i Odorisi h was limited and if a por Tion of the Beach wore Given up for this Pur pose it might conflict wit i the future re Iii remcus of the Lia ibor.
