The first twelve dssert that the allowance and subsidy to Nova Scotia are not in accordance with act of confederation; and the thirteenth contains the gist of the whole, saying that, in the opinton of this House, the interests of the country require such legis!ation as may remove all color from the assumption by the Parliamet of Canada of the power to disturb the fMuancial rela- tions established by the union act as between Can- Ada pud the provinces. 1n moving those resolutions Mi, Biake made a speech waich tor terseness aud point has not hitherto been heard to the Ontario House, Tie first gave the history of the confedera- tion, and then proceeded to demonstrate how Nova Scotia has received $1,000,000 more than it Was entitied to under the arrange. ment for provincial eb's on a subsidy of $80,000 a year for ten years, which the act. did not provide for. Te thought, masinuch as confederation had been estabushed with the weil-defined purpose of enabling the local legislatures to pay its Own iocal expenditures, and tue General Paritament to use the general revenue of the country for general purposes, only that the provinces of Upper and Lower Canada were tn fact finding money out of their local resources to pay the debia of another province.

Hull, represent.ng, 1n connection wich the Attorney Gen- eral, the commonwealth, who offered the account of the State agalust the defendant, claiming an amount due the State of $629,540 87. ‘The original setile- ment showed @ balance in favor of the State of Pa Coie te but by a settlement made onthe 1ith of uly, 1869, the claim was reduced to the above amount, ©, MoMurtrie, in the absence of H. M. Stanton, his colleague, aloue represented the defendant, and opened with a history of the orlgin and purpose of the Crévit Mobilier, from which it appeared that the corporation originally extsted as the Pennsylvania Fiscal Association; but its name was alterwards changed to its present style, and then became instrumental in building the Union Pacific Katiroad, After this road had passed the one hundredth meridian, when it optained the sab- sidy promised by Congress to the railway first reach- sing that point, a contract was made by 0. Ames to bulid 6C6 miles of the road, and by him assigned to seven trustees, Who agreed to construct the road for that distance, and on condition that the Crédit Mo- bilier woula guarantee periormance ol the contract and advance the money therefor, ‘the trustees promised to pay the Crédit Mobilier a commission of two and a hail per cent and interest on the money advanced in July, 1868. The Attorney General fied & quo warranto to inquire into the vaitdity of the corporate existence of the Credit Mobilier, and its credit beng thus impaired it was unavle to supply the amount of money required to carry on the con- tract. It then released to the trustees the part of the contract on the condition that it should not be hable for any losses or claims for damages. The question involved is what were its real earnings as a corporation during the year 1868? The witnesses for the defence have becn called to prove that dur- ing that thme no proiits were earned and divided by tls company. Further testimony is to be offered in connection with the argument of the counsel, and will, probably, occupy tue time of the court during this morniog. Centennin!

HERALD, THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 25, 1869.—TRIPLE SHEKT. OBITUARY. General Don Domingo Dulce y Garay, Mare auls of Castelforite. The death of this distinguished Spaniard, widely known on this Continent as the late Captain General of Cuba, is announced by a telegram from Madrid 8 occurring on Tuesday, Born in the city of Sotes, Spain, during the year 1808, of noble parents, who claimed descent trom @ line of illustrious ancestors, he received @ good education, and on arriving at Manhood adopted the military profession, His first Service on the battlefield was during the Spanish civil war, when he took part against the Carlists, He, however, does not appear to have done anything more than to stow himself possessed of great per- sonal courage, which was brilliantly exhibited in 1842 and at once gave him a@ distinguished position in Spain, During this year Dulce was a captain in vhe Spanish army, and commanded the palace garrl- son, Which numbered forty-eight men. In order to obtain possession of the Queen's person and destroy Espartero, General Diego Leon, at the head of 1,000 men, attacked the palace. The suddenness of the assault was a surprise to Dulce; but rapidly regaia- ing his presence of mind he gathered tus little garri- son together on the stairs of the builaing, and a‘ter @ severe struggle, in which he acted with conspica- ous gallantry, succeeded in repulsing Leon with heavy loss. ‘Tnia defence, which has rarely been surpassed in modern days, made his fortune and established his reputation. He was promoted to the position of gentleman of the bedchamber immediately after, gud in 1847 was made a brigadier general of cavalry. Two years after Queen Isabella promoted him to the rank of field marshal for further aistinguished ser- vices against the Oarlists, Le was also appointed to numerous positions of prominence and responsl- bility, such as commandant of the proviuces of Seville and Saragossa, &c. in 1854 he conspired with Marshal O’Donneil In the Vicalvaro insurrection, He was then in command of the cavalry at Madrid, the oilicers and men of which he seduced Into fol- lowing his lead, {is prompt action in sustaining the Vicalvaro pronunciamiento was undoubtedly the event that enabled the union liberal party to triumph. As might be supposed, he was rewarded by the victorious revolutionlsts in a munuer com- mensurate with the magnitude of the service. Posi- tions of greater trust than he had ever held before were filled by him and the rank of lieutenant general In the Spanish army. For six years General Dulce rematned in Spain, and during this time Serrano, now Regent of the Kingdom, und then atthe head of the government under Queen Isabella, avatled himself of the oppor- tunity offered tor introducing reforms in Cuba. Ife selected Dulce to carry out us poltcy, aud appointed him Captain General of the isiaund—an ollice the most valuable and sought alter of the many hed under the Spanish government. la 1860 General Duice arrived at Havana. Proceeding ener; to work, he introduced numerous meas; reform, the carrying out of which was so vigorously executed that before he had been on the tsland many months te had at- taiued a popularity among the Cubans never belore won by any of nis predecessors, wiih a single exception, But while he thus endeared uimsell to the nacives, he 1acurred the eumity of the Spaniards, whose hatred of the Cubans and advocacy 01 abso- lutisin caused tiem to regard with disfavor the vend- ency of the Captain General to estabiiso, even in @ modifled form, an era of constitutional rule. Many of the obnoxious decrees promulgated by former rulers were revoked, tho Cubans were admitted to oficial positions of responsibility aud their liverties generally ealarged. ‘The marriage of Duice to a native Cuban lady of wealtu added uo littie to the esteem in which he was held by tae people. But in course of ume the inevitable change in the adminisiration of aifairs on the Peninsula was wrought. The hiveral government went out and Narvaez became the ruler. It was nut long after this eveut that General Dulve was recalled and General Lersundi appoiuted to succeed him, He et Spain, and was tor sone time quartered at 5 Whule there the Cross of Sau Lermenezildo, bearing & pension of 600 escudos, was conlerred upod lin. A few months later he was arrested on suspicion of bemg engaged with Serrano, Zabaia, Cordovaand others in a conspiracy to depose the Queen and piace her glster, tie Duchess of Mout pensier, On the throne. As the principal revolution- ists of Spain. possess a happy faculty of saving their heads, Generai Duice escaped capital punishment and ube last revolution restored him tv Induence and power, One of the first acts of Serrano on coming tnto power was to appoint Dulce Capiain General of Cuba. When he reached ‘aua ihe insurrection on the island was already in full biast, with no prospect of acompromise being accepted by the insurgent lead- ers. Nevertueless, to do lia justice, Geueral Dulce at once made etiurts to bring about a resivration of tranquillity. On the occasion of his recall, some years previous, Le had, in his farewell proclamation, assur- ed the people tat wherever fate calied him he would retuain ever a Cuban. Remembering tuis assurance Unat be had given he endeavored to stay further e:tu- sion of blood, Which Lersandi could have prevented had he not beon hopelessiy deal to every diciate of sound policy, Commissioners were appoiuted to con. fer wita Cespedes and other leaders, who rejected every Compromise short of the Independence of Onda. Finding no otuer altervauve left nim Duice prose- cuted the war, but because of bis desire to deal mercifully by the insurgents taken prisoners we volunteers of Havana deposed Lim. ‘Tuese last men- tioned events are of 80 recent ovcurrence tuat the reader 18 weil acqualated with them. General Duice returned to Spain before his sue- cessor, General be Kodas, arrived. te never atter held office. Toat he tailed to pacify Cuba was hardly his fault. The people of that isiand had dealt in compromises too oiteu already to trusi the gov- ernment of Spain. Duice, though, was uudoubiedly actyated by liberal sentiments, which under dide- rent circumstunces would ngtuened popularity ta Cuba and added vo his repuiauon, AMUSEMENTS. ‘ | BROOKLYN ACADEMY OF MusIc.-.The opera of | the “Bohemian Girl,” as produced here iast evening by @ portion of the Richings Grand Opera Com- pany, Was a magnificent success.
