TIHE BURIAL OF GUIBORD, The Mayor of Mo cal Pleading that $10 Sins no Siatus Hutside of tho City Limitk—An Appont to Bo Made for Duilitnry P rotections Movtuzan, Oct. 20.—Mr. Doaire had an interview to-day with tho Mayor aa to gotting protoction at the approaching burial of Guibo rd. From what had transpired ot tho last attempt at buria), o thought now that no alidavit wan roquired to sliow tho avsolute wecousity of o nifong organization for tho protection of the approachiog funersl. Thoy wanted protection against peoplo who think thoro is no law nzalost what they did In Beptomber last, Aftor that abortive ‘attompt, thoso iguorant men would naturally imagine thero was nothing wrong in what they did, and they might expect to sao tho sama mon thoro with ‘a crowd of their fricads, and tho soepos of the 2d of Heptemboer repeated with increased gravity aud torriblo results. 1t was cspacially necessary to protoct these men from their own fgnoranco, avd to accomphsh thut & strong display of polico foreo should bo tmado on tho occasion of tho coming burial. Tho law puthorized the Chalrmen of tho soveral Ses- sions of tho I'eace or their magistrates, of whom tho Mayor migbt bo ono, to call on tho military. Tho notorioty of tho facta which markod tho firat attempt was such that any Justico of tho Poaco would be fully justilied 1n acting without further information. " Ho then called upon the Blsyor to slato what ho intonded to do on the oceasion, Tho Mnyor apawered that shortly after tho affair of Sopt. , Lo bad consulted tho city attor- noys to know his position and the extont of hia duties, aud thereupon read their writton opinion to tho offect that outsido the limits of tho city the Mayor, ns Mayor, had no statns, but that his ofiico of Justico of tha I'eaco oxtonded ovor the District of Moutreal. Ho intimatoed that noither ho nor tho city police should go ontside the city, ond that as the Catbolic cometory waa outside thesa hmits thoy wonld not go there. Ar, Doutro ropliod that thie Catholic cemetory was but a fow rods outside tho city limits, and by bringlog the body along Shorbrooke stroot and Coto des Neoigos road o very short distanco would bo left to bo travorsod batween tho city limits and Guibord’s burial placo, ‘T'lio Mayor asked why the funeral should not tako tho routo around tho nlountainfas bofore. ir. Doutro roplicd that oven with tho wholo of tho nesistance ho oxpected to rocoivs from tho police, ho Liad made up his mind to come through tho city, n8 the distance was sborter, and if thoy wero to bo deprived of tho protoction of tho polico at a_cartain pnrt of tho road, that way an additional roason to como through the city, so Lat tboy might bo to a certain extont umier tho protection of ths public authoritics, Tho othor souto lay through two smallor municipalities that bad no polico. He addod that ho considered the distiuction mado about tho torritorial lines, in & caso of such vast im portanco, appeared liko eplitting hairs. How- avor, If this action was persisted in, ho would pow apply to W. 1I, Hingston, Eeq., Justico of the I'cace, to eign a papor propared for calling out tho militia, and suggesied that Hingston could obtain tho slgnsturo of the Mayor of Coto des Nelges, whio did business close by tho City-11all. The Mayor said ho had been callod there as Mayor, and would not act in any other capacity, Mr. Doutre—You aro at liberty not to anawer, but I formnally call npon you as Justico of the Penco to do your duty as such, ‘I'ho Mavor—I have no anawer to give you. Mr, Doutro—1 will tako that as e rofusal. Tho Mayor—Yon oan take it as you like.
