A newspaper correspondent relates that, by the act of confederation—lß67 — one Parliament, consisting of the Queen, an upper house, styled the Senate, and the House of Commons, was given to Canada. The executive power of nnd over Canada was continued and is vested in the Queen. A council, known as the Queen’s Privy Council for Caanda, to aid and advise in the government of the country, was established, and an officer, styled the Governor-General of Canada, who carries on the Government in the Queen’s name and in her behalf, provid ed for. The power of the Crown beiug limited by its constitutional advisers, the form of government as far as it goes in that direction is a limited monarchy. The functions of the Governor-General, though representing royalty, are more restricted than those appertaining to royalty itself. The House of Commons is this impor tant part of Parliament. The members of the Privy Council, if not mainly of their number, report in the House the manner of conducting the Government. The supplies for carrying on all Govern ment originate with them. They—the Commons—are in fact the people, the supreme ruling power. The task of Government is carried on by the Ministry or Government or Ad ministration, so long as they can com mand a majority of the two houses of Parlament, and are the choice of the Crown. Like the States of the American Union the provinces of the Dominion are uni ted for some purposes and separated for others. There is a union for matters of general, and one might say national, interest; there is a separation for mat ters of local or internal interest. The Conservatives and the Liberals are the two great political parties. The leader of the former Sir John Maodon ald, is Premier of the Dominion. The Cabinet possesses some of the ablest men in Canada. Each Minister is paid $7,- 000 a year as compensation. Sir John Macdonald has the say in all matters. His individuality, however, has found a counterpart in Sir Charles Tupper, an ex-member of the Government srvl at present High Commissioner io r.ugiana. Sir John has devoted his life to the ser vice of his country. He entered politics over 50 years ago. His great lieuten ants are Sir Hector Langevin, French Canadian, holding the portfolio of Pub lic Works; Sir J. D. Thompson, Minister of Justice; the Hon. George E. Foster, Minister of Finance, and the Hon. Mac kenzie Bonell, Minister of Customs. The Hon. J. A Chapleau, Secretary of State, is the greatest orator in the Cabinet. He is a politician rather tbaD a states man, but his friends claim that unfor tunate intluenoes have kept him in the background. The Cabinet aits daily during the ses sion of Parliament, but during recess meets three or four times weekly. It is composed as follows: Sir John A. Macdonald. Premier; the Hon. George E. Foster Minister of Finance; the I Hon. E. H. Dewdney, Minister of the Interior: j Sir J D. Thompson! Minister of Justice; Sir Hector Eangevin, Minister of Public Works;, j | th Hen. joiin .GanHsran. Minister of Inland j Revenue; the Hon. J. H. Pope, otmiswir at ! Railways; the Hon", John Carling, Mihister of i Agriculture; the Hon. J. G. Haggart, Postmss | ter-General; the Hon. C. H. Tupper, Minister of Fisheries; the Hon. Mackenzie Bonell, Min j ister of Customs; Sir Adolphe Caron, Minister of Militia; the Hon J. A. Chaple&u, Secretary i of State; the Hon. Frank Smith (without port folio); the Hon. J. J. Abbott (without port ! folio). All orders in council passed by the Cabinet do not become operative un til approved of by the Governor-Gen eral, who is at present Lord Stanley, son of the late Earl Derby. Canada is governed at home by politi cians, who in turn have, in many in stances, to submit to the decrees of Downing street. The various provinces, with the exception of Ontario, are gov erned to death. They have local Legis latures, with miniature Houses of Lords, exotics not in keeping with the aspira tions of our people. In Quebec the legislative Councilors, Or Lords, are appointed for life. They are supposed to represent the “property" holders of the province, and to act as a safety valve on the radical tendencies of the Assem bly. Iu Prinoe Edward Island the legis lative council is more democratic, tie cause it is elective. The islaud possesses a population of 100,000. It returns six members to the Federal Parliament, four Senators appointed by the Central Gov ernment, thirty members returned by manhood suffrage to the local Assembly, besides thirteen legislative Councilors returned by the votes of the property holders. Fifty-three legislators repre sent 100,000 people. The province of Ontario, by all odds the most prosperous and progressive of the Canadian provinces, has in the ad ministration of its local affairs but one i house, elected by the votes of the peo ple. It furnishes a model to the world, There are few States in llie American | Union mote populous than Ontario and none more prosperous. It is the banner province of confederation. The Federal Senate, established with good intentions, is the butt of the press of more than one party. It is non-elect ive, and is everywhere regarded as the dumping ground for played-out politi cians. Senate reform has lieen a party cry in Canada for years, but nothing has been done. Distinctively speaking, there are no Canadians in Canada. The census gives the number of English, Scotch, Irish and French, but nowhere is mention made of Canadian. There Is a large de gree of selfishness about their politi : cians, and every nationality or element has its representative at the Federal Council board. The-e is practically no community or sentiment between the various provinces. It is a common say ing that you insult a native of the mari time provinces by calling him a Can adian. Down there political battles are fought out on provincial lines, and an effort is always made to drive the hard est bargain with the Central Govern ment at Ottawa. HE DIDN’T CATCH ON.

The Rubber Hunters* The Yularoes, or rubber hunters at Costo Rica, writes a correspondent, are the most irresponsible and ignorant of creatures, whose first object, when out on an expedition, is to secure as much caoutchouc as possible, and next to dam age the prospects of other Yularoes, re gardless of the future. A thrifty tree at its first outting, ought to yield not less than fifty pounds of rubber, but the hunters of to day find few so profit able, unless they penetrate far into the virgin forests, and are fortunate enough to discover na entirely new district. In the section- already worked most of the trees have been tapped several times, and many of them were spoiled at the outset by having been cut too young be cause Its greedy discoverer feared that if the prize were left to attain perfec tion another might secure it. Were the matter regulated by judicious laws, so that only mature trees might be tapped, and those not to an extent to cause death, the production of caoutclioud would soon be a source of wealth to the republic. Among the inhabitants of Central America the Yularoes form a distinct class, by all odds the lowest in the coun try, unless it may be the Caribs of Guate mala, or the pearl divers of the western coast. They are mostly halfbreeds or negroes, for white men seldom engage in it, though the business might be ex tremely profitable. A Yularo can be dis tinguished at a glance from natives of other “professions,” as easily as a cow boy in genteel society, • r a miller fresh from his mill, not only by his general air of dare-devil-don’t care-itiveness, but by the thick coatin ■ of caoutchouc that covers his clothing from head to foot. This extra coating accumulates gradual ly by contact with the rubber trees, without intention on the part of the wearer, and in time renders his gar ments absolutely waterproof and almost indestructible. GEORGE AND LAURA. “Laura,” exclaimed the youth, as he laid his arm timidly on the bock of her chair, “now that you have promised te be mine, it surely does not seem to be asking too much if I ” “Well, George?’’ George took her hand in his, swallowed once or twice spasmodically, an l pro ceeded: “As your affianced husband, Laura, whom you will some day promise in the sight of high heaven to love, honor and —er—cherish, you will not think me presuming, dearest, I hope, if—if——” “Well, George?" “If I venture to claim the privilege of ak-ofakiss!” The lovely maid laid her head trust ingly on the young man’s shoulder, a tender light shone in her dreamy eyes, and her fragrant breath swept the cheek of the rapturous lover as she softly mur mured: “George, don’t be a clam.” — A CONVERSATION.
