SECESSION CRY IN CANADA.
A despatch from Winnepeg (Manitoba), Marcn 16, says: From one end of Canada to the other the cry of "Secession" is being heard. From the resolutions of various Legislatures, none of the provinces, with the exception of Quebec, seems satisfied. Quebec, with its tremendous following in the Federal House, and its sagacious and powerful influence, most outspoken of hierarchy, is dictating Sir Wilfrid Laufier's policy, and the conditions are such that at the present time he dare not refuse its commands. A great constitutional crisis is approaching.. The provinces jointed together by the federation consider' they are not being fairly treated by the Dominion Government in regard to subsidies and other matters.
