Hon, Mr. FRASER showed that the Pub-- lis Accounts did not show the whole of the money accruing from this source. Hon, Mr. MOWAT said the duties of the :::rfior were very onerous, and ware well ormed; and it was of the groatest impor-- tance that such an ofticer should be appoint-- @d, becsuse some County Judges were very lax in seeing that the duties of, the clerks of their courts were properly performsd. BMr, MEREDITH pointed out taat the Bill rolatintg to County Courts abolished stamps in these courts altogether, and this would therefore remove the nscessity for such an officar as the Inspector.
