It is the duty of every public man to enforce ‘ his convictions with energy and persistency,,’ and it is equally his duty fearlessly to expose what, he may think to be the errors in the conduct or policy of his opponents; but I believe it is possible to do all this without violating the kindly relations of the inner and better life, which depend on the cultiva- tion of other parts of our nature than that which politics are most apt to evoke. I think that in doing a kind and gratifying thing to me upon this occasion, my old poli- tical opponents have performed a great poli- tical service. (Cheers). .They have shown that, however great our difference of opinion may be, we are not mere political gladiators who love strife tor its own sake, and that the perpetuation of personal friendship is not, incompatible with political antagonism. They have shown, moreover, that there is sutï¬cient magnanirnity among public men of opposite ranks to recognise in each other, some personal worthâ€"a tribute whichI wish i had in this instance been more deserved. Such kindness takes the sting out of much that is disagrwztbie in politics, and removes one of the drawbacks that deter many men of sensibility t out taking part. in publicaf- falrs. You will believe me then, 1 think, when in Ct)i1(‘ll’.>l1)‘/l I say that though my re- sidence for too time will be changed, the as- sociations and friendships which thirty years have given birth to will remain unbroken. The place of one's early struggles, the theatre of one’s former brofessional and pub- lic life, the ground which is hallowed by the memory of warm and disinterested friendship the birth-place of one’s children, and the sphere wherein the success or failure in life of some of them is to be determined, their present and future home, and let me add the home which has been made glad and bright~ ened by one who is now present as a grate- i'ul witness of your generous regard, which cannot be forgotten. and when added to all this there is the kindest parting which it has perhaps ever fallen to the lot of any man to receive from all classes of the community, you do not I am sure need the assurance that these remembrances willvlive‘as long as memory and feelings survive."

'Yï¬â€˜i'ï¬f‘ We have transferred to our columns the'speech delivered by our late Finance Minister, at a. banquet given him at Mon- treal, on the occasion of his retirement from public life, and his departure to Europe The speech is a good one, and worthy of a careful perusal; it is non- political,. and conciliatory. We _do ‘not pretend to know the real cause of Mr. Rose’s thement from the ministry, but presume he has not been content since his banking measure was garrotted by his own political friends. We have given our support to Mr. Rose’s scheme, beâ€"‘ cause we wereâ€"and still continue to beâ€" honestly oi' the opinion that our farmer‘s,‘ _mechanics and laborers are entitled to 'better security for the paper currency floating in the country. It is a well l known fact that there has been a dozen banks that have closed their doors, from .one cause or other, within the past forty- ï¬ve yearsâ€"making an average of one in every four yearsâ€"in the Province of On- tario. It is to guard against losses in this way that Mr. Rose brought forward I his banking measure of last session ; but owing to the “ banef‘ul domination " ofour banking houses, and the powerful influ- ence which they exercise in and out of parliament, Mr. Rose’s good intentions to- wards the public uenerally were strangled in the cradle. We have no doubt but that Mr. Rose has become dissatlsï¬ed with his position, and manfully~deter~ mined to retire rather than be controlled by a few bank managers and their friends in Pairliament.

Atter reviewing the history of the Institute, and oï¬'ering advice for its fu- ture management,‘ he touched upon other subjects. The present, he said,- was a ma.- terialistic age. His political creed cnuld be summed up in-t‘wo articles: His faith in the people governing was inï¬nitesimal ; his faith in people governed was inimitable. We regret to learn, by the Toronto Telegraph, that the arrangements for the reception of the prince are not likely to give general satisfaction, owing to the desire of a few “swells †to form a sort of body-guard round HisRoyal Highness, in order to prevent honest and better men than themselves from enjoying the pleasure of offering a hearty welcome to the Queen’s son.

Loxnox, Sept. 27.â€"â€"The Times, in an edi- torial on the relations of England and the United States, says:â€"â€"“'1‘he progress and result of negotiations on the Puget Sound question shows that Americans and English men can keep suï¬iciently above the mists of national prejudices and apply common prin- ciples of equity torthe settlement of interna- tional disputes. The work was atrymg one for arbitrators. Anz decision would have been satissactory. The actual one is not un- satisfactory. The mo’st agreeable feature of this negotiation is the judicial temper dis- playcd byathe gentlemen conducting the en- quiry. The San Juan and the Alabama difficulties are the only questions now left outstanding. These, if ever brought to arbi- tration at the same hands, could scarcely re- sist anxiety to «observe the terms of their commission, by doing justice and equity without fear, favor. or affection for their own country, which has distinguished the arbitrators of this claim.†UNION PIC-NIC.
