After expressing his sense of the courtesy manifested by the presiding officer of the chamber in the reception of his colleague and himself, Mr. O'Brien said that his surprise had been excited by the remarkable patience manifested by the chamber of deputies in according such liberal allowances of time for the discussion and con- sideration of matters which, in other parlia- mentary bodies. would be briefly dismissed. This, Mr. O’Brien believed, was not always to tho best interests of the republic, inasmuch as a great deal of time was lost in the prolonged discussion of matters of comparatively triflin importanco, while questions of great national moment and absorbing interest wore at times kept in the background of debate by an over- scrupulous desire to avoid the appearance of cutting off discussion in minor matters. In the house of commons debate on any question was never so prolonged as was tho ease in the French chamber, and the tendency was constantly toward » trimming down of vratorical displa MINES D MINING.

Quin- lan, Friday last, among other things, testified that after paying his rent in December, 1889, four shots had been fired in his house. Today the witness said that since yesterday he had been informed that those dealing in the article would refuse to supply his family with milk. Mr. V. B. Dillon of counsel for the defense expressed a wish that as the case was being con- ducted before a superior court a charge of con- tempt against Mr. Balfour should be brought.
