PARLIAMENT DISSOLVED JHaftcch Fifth Set for the General Elections, Ottawa, Ont. Feb. 2.���The sixth parliament of Canada has been dissolved. Nominations take place on Thursday, Feb. 20, and polling on March 5. The writs will he dated Feb. i and returnable April 25. In announcing the dissolution tbe Empire, the officiul organ of tho government, says; "In view of the foregoing important announcement the qnebtion will be naturally asked, what are the reasons which induced the government to appeal to the country at the present time ? It is Understood that the Dominion government have, through her majesty's gevcrninent, made certain proposals to the United States for negotiations looking to an exteutiou of our commerce with that country. These psoposuls have beon submitted to President Harrison for his consideration, and the Canadian government is of opinion, that, if negotiations are to result in a treaty, which nmst be ratified by the parliament of Canada, it is expedient that tho government should be able to deal with a parliament fresh from the people, rather than with a moribund house. It is Understood tbat Canada will send a delegation to Washington, after March 4th, on. which date the life of the present congress expires, for the purpose of ditaoussing, informally, questions ofj the extension and development of trade between tho United States and Canada, aud the questions of difference between tho two countries. This delegation will visit the United States' capital, it is said, as a result uf u friendly suggestion from Washington," The policy ol tho Liberal party, unrestricted reciprocity with tlm United States, will be placed before lb,) publio. and, if oar>d, tho Con' BQivulivea assert, will result iu tho ujtiiuuto anneiatiou to tho States. JFeojcd .the Old Fellow. Leslie Fraser Duncan,;the venerable ex-editor of the Londen Matrimonial News, who was ordered by a | verdict." of a jury te'pay tea thousand pounds to Jliss Gladys Knowles for promising to make her his wife, and nohkeoping his word, has ever since tho,verdict been playing a hide and seek; game with the bankruptcy court in an effort to escape payment of the money.JjAt present he is under criminal preseoulii n for failing to answer question* [as to the srbereabout'ofTiis property ,4snd for endeavoring to conceal the same. He has been eompellod te part with hisjirojierty at a sacriuce,', and tho official receiver h43 guoceded, after Duncan's dodging, in getting hold of the six or seven thousand pounds he had Wt, so that the suit has jcuined Duncan. Miss Ecowle? will get the 6,500 pound, less expenses, awarded her by the'appelate court, which seems to have; fuej "eu the ampuct. Duncan, who had lived on comfortably^ and quietly enough till he met Miss Knowles, has had rather aa exciting experience since thai event, having within the past few menths been a fugitive on the continent, a prisoner in London, an indicted criminal, and, if ho tolls the truth, is now a beggar, . .��. .
