FROM THE 'DOMINION. f PrncrrrtliiK of (he P.trllnmrut. Ottawa, April 4. In the Commons Mr. Cart wright, a prominent member of the Opposition, moved an address to the Queen respecting the withdrawal of troops and munitions of war from this country. He considered the policy of the Imperial Government a wise one in general,but, with exceptional circumstances in regard to Canada, he regarded as warranting a different course. He thought Mr. Scott's murder should have been treated in the same manner by the Impe rial authorities as the cases of the Abysinian captures; bnt in this matter, as in that of Fenian Haiti claims," and in correspondence generally, he asserted that the Imperial authorities were cool and indifferent concerning the interests of Canada. After referring to the subject of inde pendence, which he desired to keep in the back ground, he concluded by moving an address to the effect that, while fully recognizing the duty of Canada to maintain military defenses, and expressing no opinion in opposition to Tlic Imperial Policy, In view of the peculiar and analogous position of the Dominion, conterminous for thousands of miles with powerful States, mano of whose in habitants are noiorionsly actuated by sentiments of bitter hostility to the British empire, we cannot Ujit leel that the withdrawal of troops is calculated to excite much uneasiness in the minds of many of her Majesty's subjects on this continent. Sir George E. Cartier said, as his address ex pressed generally the wishes of the Government they would not oppose it, but he reminded the mover that there were garrisons at Quebec and Halifax. The House went into Committee on the Ad dress, reported, and asked leave to sit again. Sf SOTS Su'lMXVIAXl'S'. City Attain. The Public- Buildings Commission yester day referred a resolution for the contractor of excavations to commence work to the Committee on Contracts, to report at the next meeting.

Dr. Levis having testified before Alder man Kerr yesterday that George W. Smith will probably recover, the defendant Thomas "Wilson was remanded to the custody of the bail for a bearing before Alderman Shoe maker to-morrow afternoon. The house of Mr. De nart, on Eighth street, above Brown, on Sunday morning last was entered and $1700 taken from a card table. Suspicion fastened on his son, a dis solute character, and G. W.

Foreign Affairs. Order is restored at Marseilles. The supplementary Commune elections have been postponed General Vinoy's troops are to enter Taris either to-day or to-morrow. A Berlin despatch says that the Frenoh have not yet paid anything of the indemnity. The Commune baa appealed to the people of Paris to repel the common invader, as they term the Government forces. A Versailles despatch claims that the rem nant of the insurgent troops were completely defeated yesterday in another engigemant. The German and French Plenipoten tiaries had another meeting at Brussels yes terday, to arrange the final terms of peace between their countries. The fightiDg before Taris on Monday, between the insurgents and Government troops, was quite severe, and the latter claim to have won a substantial victory. One hundred thousand Nationals, in three corps, with two hundred gunn, marched via Montronge, Issy, and Ilenil, all destined for Versailles, bnt on being engaged by the Government forces were badly defeated and demoralized. Ml TBE CHARGES. the orotjnd ron the allegations ac.ainst THE rUBLIC BUILDINGS COMMISSION. Yesterday, at the meeting of the Fublio Buildings Commission, the committee autho rized to investigate as to the truth of certain charges made by the Evening Bulktin thus reported: Philadelphia, April 4. To the Commis sioners for the Erection of Publio Buildings: The special committee appointed at the last meeting of the commissioners, under the re solution, of which a copy is annexed, to in vestigate the charges made in the Evening Bulletin with respect to one of the commis sioners, respectfully report that the JUcenma Bulletin, in their issue of March 8 the day after the appointment of the committee hav ing named Mr. John Rice as the commissioner referred to in the article of February 23, which article declares the charge therein con tained to be made, "so far as careful investi gation has verified the statement, upon good and sufficient ground," the committee called upon the proprietors of the BuUttin to ascer tain the facts upon which the charge was made. The committee annex to this report all the correspondence which passed on the subject between themselves and the Bulletin, except a note from Mr. Francis Wells, one of the editors, dated March 22, 1871, addressed to Mr. Wetherill, and marked "personal." although the note to which it purports to be a reply was from the committee. lhey annex also the minutes made of the several interviews had by the committee with various persons whose names were suggested to them. The commissioners can judge from these documents whether or not the efforts of the committee to discharge the duty en trusted to them were met with that frankness and straightforward reception, on the part of tee Jjuneun, wnicn there was a right to ex pect, after the voluntary and almost defiant challenge on the part of that paper to have the investigation made. The name of the "individual or "proposed agent," alleged in the article in the Bulletin of February 28, to nave been approached by a commissioner to purchase votes of members of Select Council, was denied to the commit tee, though mentioned by Mr. Wells in an in terview sought by him with Mr. Cuyler, one of its members, cn the 17th of March, the day prior to Mr. Wells' note to the committee, repeating in effect his refusal to give them the name of the party referred to. The com mittee have seen Mr. Thomas W. Price, Mr. James McManes, and Mr. William II. Kemble, the only individuals whose names were sug gested to them as able to give information, or as any way likely to know anything about the matter. It will be seen from the minutes of the interviews of the committee with these gentlemen that they declined to give any in formation, except Mr. Price, who merely re peated what he had communicated to the Bul letin as to what he had been told by the "sup posed agent, whom, however, he declined to name. It further appears that the alleged fact of such a proposal having been made rests solely on the allegations of the "supposed agent himself, as reported by otners, since no one was suggested or referred to as having been present and overheard it. As Mr. Wells himself remarked, such things were not usually done in the presence of others. The "supposed agent is reported by others as considering the matter aa se rious, whicn puts mm (u tne tact De so; in the more than equivocal position or un- blushingly acknowledging that he himself first suggested the purchase or votes by in quiring how mucn was given tor tnem. n this be bis account of the matter (and all the information the committee could get was at second-hand), it cannet be regarded as en titled to much weight. It is further to be observed that all infor mation as to the source from which the Bul letin derived the ground for the assertion in the issue of the 8th of March, that Mr. Rice was the commissioner referred to, has been studiously concealed from the committee, Mr. Rice's name was not mentioned by any one of the parties to whom your committee was referred; but, on the contrary, they em phatically denied having mentioned the name of any commissioner. There is no evidence whatever upon which the committee can report that there is any truth in the charge made. If such evidenoe existed, it was in the power of the Bulletin, according to their own aooount, to give it, or to indicate whether it could be nad. The committee think that no comment is needed. The facts attending their efforts to investigate the charge are their own best comment. The committee respectfully ask to be dis charged from the further consideration of the subject. Respectfully submitted, J. P. Wethebill, Samuel 0. Pjcrkins. CONNECTICUT. LATKB BSTCBNS PROBABILITY THAT THE ELEC TION WILL BE BZ THE LEGISLATURE. Hartford, April 4. The election is very close, and it will probably take the offlcia count to deoide who Is eleoted Uovernor. Tbe Times, Democrat, claims a majority of a for jngiiBH, and tne Vourant, Kepublican claims a rrajonty of 87 for Jewell. Later returns in the office of the Evening Tost, this afternoon, from the entire State, give English a plurality of 45 votes. Should the scattering vote exceed this number the election will be by the Logialatnre. Twenty scattering votes were deposited in New Haven, and it is not unlikely that enough will be polled to defeat an election by the people. The Times, Democratic, makes a plurality of 8 for English. Should the election go to the Leoiblature there will be no doubt of Jewell's success, as the Legislature is Kepub lican in both branches. THB REIUHJIS UP TO MIDNIGHT A "WORLD" SPECIAL. Habtfokd, April 4. At midnight the vote fotts up: Jewell, 47,333; English, 47,3.r0; giving English a majority of 17, Thig ia claiming A Republican majority of 144 in Stamford, which perhaps is only 104. The Junes claims 42 for Lnclish, or, with fotam- ford chanced, 82. The result is not abso lutely certain, as other errors are suspected. A majority is required for an election, and possibly there are scattering votes enough to throw the election into the Legislature. 'ew haven, April 4 (Special to the Ne w York World,) At the Reaister oflloe returns have been received which assure a Demo cratic majority of at least 100, which the Republicans concede. An unfortunate nomi nation in this Congressional district has cost the Democrats not less than a thousand votes. THE LAST COUNT. IIaiitfopd, April " 2 A. M. English has l(j majority, with a probability of 40 more if Stamford gives Jewell 101 instead of 14 1 as reported. It is probable that there will be a failnre lo elect by the people. The Senate will have a Republican majority, and the House about 15 Republican majority. Strong, for CoDgress, has 34:1 majority; Kellogg, 49; Starkweather, about 1G00; and Barnaul, 1100. FOR SALE.
