Mr. BLAKE suggested that as the hon. member for Cornwall was now in his place, the debate which had arisen on the, explanation of the hon. Commissioner of Crown Lands should take precedence of" the question by members. This was agreed to. Mr. CUMBERAND had understood that the hon. Commissioner for Crown Lands was awaiting the arrival of the hon. mem- ber for Cornwall, m order to add some- thing to his exploration of Friday. Mr. CUMBE1tLhND said that the organ of the Ministerial party had so reported his remarks. He could congratulate the hon. Commissioner of Crown Lands on his discretion in refraining from those addi. tional observations. It was evident that. that hon. number thought discretion the butter part of valor. Mr. Cumberland than Ha. Mr. BLAKE explained-that his hon. friend had not expressed himself in those terms. referred to the circumstances under which his hon. friend from Prescott had been 1n- troduced to that House, and remarked that the position in the House of his hon. friend was similar to that of a majority of the hon. members on that side of the House. He (Mr. Cumberland) repudiated the idea of offering any factions opposition to the " vernment; he would accept their measures on their merits, and should hold himself free to support or oppose them as they commended thre11rsrelvcas to his political judgment. " jih. SEXTON said gentleman who were in the late Government had been taunted in everything that they did, and they seem- ed to wonder how Le could support the ald, present himself again for eleeioa. no (Mr. Lauder) had served a large constitu. ency for the last. four PPP, and during that time he had leer! subjected to the very worst abuse which it Was possible to be heaped upon any man, and even his own private eharacter le,ltt? nganIy Snack. ad.

With respect tul , the Scott resolution also the hon. Premier Ili, abandoned his previous position; he had now taken up the ground of neutrality towards Ottawa, and it was the same with the Manitoba resolution. The hon. Pre. mier had done all he could in slumping the country to oppose him (Mr. Laude ) in '; Grey, but it would not do, and he now i, charged the h :11.
