The very existence of such a monster: imperium in fmperic is in our view contrary to the genius of ‘our imatitutions, and the cultivation of that spirit of reliance upon the strong arm of the Executive for pu&aion in ‘the hour of danger, which is an important element in the preservation of the respect for law that ought to prevail in every well regulated community. But the very great improbability of #etting the consent of 200,000 men to impose upon themâ€" selves a poltax of $13 per annum, in addiâ€" tion to the loss of time incident to performing their duties in the proposed association, renders any serious discussion of the project unnecesâ€" sary. coutrements within a year." In tuture years the Tunds of this society are expected to provide for all the appurtenances of a well organized army. The reasors urged in favor of the scheme are that the existing organizations are insufficient for the defence of the cournitry ; and that the demands upon the revenue for the maintenance of a paid organization would overburthen the people with taxation. > Though the project may look ‘well upon paper, we confess our utter want of faith in its practicability to the extent indicated.

Hon. J. 8. MACDONALD stated that by the terms of the Quebec Resolutions, the Legislaâ€" tive Councillors would be nominated by the Provisional Governor and his advisers, before & linfle election could be held under the Localâ€"Constitution. It was clear that the Local Parliament could have no control v!ub:'@c- iimportant . r s ‘by ~the Constituencies 'EM continue to be identical, both for the Localand General Governments.

Hon. Mr. BROWN said the 12th resolution bore an entirely «lifferent construction. On n:adi,.it the lnfcre_rgoe was plain that the Hon. Mr. BROWN opened the discussion. His own idea had been that â€"some scheme could have been devised to bring the Exâ€" ecutive into direct responsibility to the peoâ€" ple, which would have been more economical and more perfcct than the one now before the Honse, . The period chosen for the duration ot Parliament;four years, was too long. A Parliament elected for three years, with an Executive, composed of heads of Departments, without seats in the House, would better tend to avoid the difficulties which .had beset the Government of Canada, than the plan proposâ€" ed. He should have liked to have seen the Local Executive placed under the law, inâ€" stead of controling the Legislature.

Mr, BROWNâ€"Said the Provincial Secretary had no right to have put such a conâ€" struction upon his (Mr. B.s) remarks. He eontemplated nothing of the kind, and he was sure his words would bear no such construcâ€" tion. He had.asked him why he did not inâ€" troduge his own plan to this House. His reaâ€" son for so doing was, that since it was the geneâ€" ral feeling of this; House to give the constituâ€" tions provided by these resolations a fair trial, there was no need of puttitig two schemes beâ€" fore the country to create useless discussion. The Provincial Secretary ought to be the last man to object to his (Mr. B.‘s) views, as up to this time he had been their, warm advocate.

Mr. BROWNXâ€"The point had always been well understood, and he had never heard of any misconception, until the member for Brome had undertaken to lecture him, as he did other members of this House.. ‘The very mode of selection of the Councillors had been decided on, and with the permission of the Atâ€" torneyâ€"General ‘West he would state it to the House. 3 Hon. J. A. MACDONALDâ€"Certainly. Hon. Mr, BROWN.â€"The mode was a very simple and in his mind a very fair one, simply that the Reform members of} the Cabinet should consult their supporters, ‘the Conservaâ€" tives theirs, and having had a fair understandâ€" ing as to who were acceptable on each side, then to nominate alterhately from both the partics, â€" He still beli¢ved that every justice would be done to all parties in that selection. With regard to the Local Executives, he regretâ€" ted very much that the amendment submitâ€" ted by the member for Notth Ontario had not been accepted, because be considered it exâ€" ceedingly desirable ‘that the nurgber ‘ of the, Executive should be limited. e Hon.

Mr. GALTâ€"The understanding ot the fourteenth clause had been explained then precisely in the meaning now given to it by the| member for Montmorenci. Hon. Mr. BROWNâ€"Quite so. Hon. Mr. GALT then read from the speech of the hon, member for South Oxford, to the effect that the meaning of itwas that the existâ€" ing government should select the first members of the Legislative Council, and that he . (Mr. B.) had every confidence that in that selection justice would be done to patties on both #ides of the House. | South Oxford had not reopened the discussion on the .Quebec Resolutions then this debate was very much misplaced| He proceeded to read theim, to elugidate th¢ point whether the existing Legislature could be construed as the Local Legislaturp, according to the meaning of the resolutions.¢ He ‘said| he miight congraâ€" tulate himself ow, since} he had frequently complained of thirambiguity, that the memâ€" ber for South Oxford, who had been one of their authors, and who had ins on their being accepted without a word ng changed, apâ€" peared now not to be able to understand them, He had been of o})inion that it would be the duty of the existing Legiglatures to appoint the members of the Legislative Council of the general government, butapon the construction now put on the 14th clausg the Local «Parliaâ€" ment would have/to meet before the nominaâ€" tions to the Conffderate Legislative Council could take place, | _ _ | â€" Hon, Mr, CAUCHON said. the Legislative Council of the ram would be appointed before | the Governors were appornted at all ; their nomination would be made by the ut‘dn‘ Goavernment. _ (Hear, hear.) This point was made clear by the clause in‘ the Quebec resplutions, providing that the first members ot the Council should be chosen from the existing Local Legislative Couneils. _ 1t was well nderstood that the Government of (Canada st in the place of the Local Governments of Upper and Lower Canada at the present. time, and must make the first selection which would afterwards fall upon the Local Govegnments. f Mr. DUNKIN said if u{. hon. me s Secrotary, and issue it Seal, for r-fl rlhpncl’lt'w uld then‘s uks | n-n&)onn ble atvige + the discharge of any ng/on the advice of t} AUCHON said the L re | the .

He had given the House a most eloquent speech, but there was n6 argument in it, and no doubt he could be as eloquent on one side as the other, He (Mr. L.) then proceeded to argue againsta nominated Upper Chamber, which would producea dead lock in the government. The gentlemen opposite wanted a Legislative Union, but they know very well they cannot get it, and so. they provide an Upper House that they may bring, about a deur lock, and so lead to a Legislative Union! _ If Uppor Canada can do with one Chamber, why cannot Lower Canada ? He had heard no reason to prove that one Chamber was good for Upper Canada, and yet not good for Lower Canada. The hon, gentleman had spoken of the good feeling existing between the two races, but if there was so much good feeling, why lh these precautions on the part of the British popuâ€" lation? ~Why give them a school bill which . the Lower Canadians could not touch? Why guarantec them so many | constituencies that the parliament could not change? It was beâ€" cause they had no faith in that feeling. â€" The good feeling was not stronger now than it was twenty years ago. He would like to hear one good reason why: m!duumodlor Upâ€" per, but not good for Lower h Hon.Mr, McGFEE merely alluded to it because, on a former occasion, the member for Lambton had said that he (Mr. Mctree) had accepted the bil of 1808 as a tinality. â€" (He then read from his specch in ‘63, containing a similar declaraâ€" tion as to equal privileges and continued) this question; of education would increase in lr'r:- rtance as the country pmsrenod and he g:ndderod it one which whould engage the seâ€" rious attention of the Local Legislature, He went over the matters within the jurisdiction of the, Local Legislatures, and contended that their duties would in somédegrecbe of more importance than that of the General Legislaâ€" tures, and hoped that n seat in them would: be esteemed as a position, 6t honor and responsiâ€" bility, The hon. genrlemm must know that the confederation of | British North America was a foregone conclusion. Tthad been decidâ€" ed by.this House uu;l{r{ the,country. It was in pursuance of the pT cy of the empire ; ever since. the American war the question had been urged upon the country, zy the necessities of its position, by the councils of the Imperial (Government, and by every â€" comsideration of sound polcy. ‘Theâ€" hon. â€"member had now come forward at the eleventh hour, and catchâ€" ing the giant union by his shoe string‘ was try» ing to trip him up. Mr. McGee reiterated his argument that experience had hitherto shown that two chambers were inseparable from the suceessful working of the British constitution. Hon. Mr. BROWN.â€"BDoes he wish to the pdint now ? . + Hon, J, A. MACDONALD said. in accorâ€" dance with the announcement he made at the first sitting, he would now move that a teleâ€" grum be sent to the colonial office, acâ€" knowledging the message to the Governorâ€" General, Hupmm:ht it should be sent jointly by . both s of the Legislative Council and the Legislative Assemby of Canaâ€" da. â€" He therefore moved, seconded by the hon, member forCornwall, that a telegram be sent to the colonial ofl‘ce, in acknowledgâ€" ment of the despatch received by the Governorâ€" Goneral, in the following words. * To the Right Hon. Earl Caernarvon. _ * We the l.cgiulnti"(- Conncil and Assembly " of Canada humbly thank Her Majesty for her "gracious nmtmgoh‘% the Governorâ€"General, «We feel warmly that by this grout enterprize "we are drawn nearer to the heart of the " mother country." The motion was carried by acelamation. "The debate on the Local Constitutions was resumed,. The first, second and third resoluâ€" tions were carried on division. s (n the fourth resolution, Hon. A. A. DORION recited the arguments of the Attorneyâ€"Geners!l West in favorof a gingle chamber in Upper Canada, and conâ€" tinued that all questions ofim{:ofl-nce relating to commerce, currency, banking and public works, generally, were transferred to the Genâ€" eral Government, It the duties of the Local Governinent were only to be municipal, it apâ€" peared to him that one chamber would be sufticient for Lower Canada. He then viewed the “fl?cd from the financial point, contendâ€" ing that in the interest of economy there should be no Lefislative Council in Lower Canada. The object of the motion he would lay before the House, was to do away with‘ & second chamber in Lower Canada, adopting thesame principle as was to be applied to Upper Canada. After further remarks he moved an amendâ€" ment in accordance with the above. _ Hon. Mt. Laframboise seconded the amendment. Hon, Mr, CARTIER introduced a bill re specting works connected with the deferice c the Province. 3 Mr. BELIAsaid he would have the Bill print ed within twentyâ€"four howrs. + ~> Hon, J, A. MACDONALD said it was not advisable at thisâ€"time, in the presoat ~state . of the.country,to show to the Irish Roman Cathoâ€" lics af Upper Canada that they cannot have a measure introduced before this House , in. the usual way.. He asked the member for South Oxfgrd to withdraw his objection. i. Mr. BROWN suid it was wrong for the leadgr of the government and the #pecial reâ€" prusgxmti\'c of Upper Canada to give a partiâ€" zan character to this debate. * He denied that he was actuated by any partizan feeling in the vourse he had taken, but he had no other way of protecting the interests of the country than to oppose it. j *h 8 Mt. BELL was then called upon to ©«end in the bill" and the matter dropped. _ Hon. Mr, BROWN cume. forward to Clerk‘s table and picked Ap the hill which in blank, and said © Mr. Spenker there is bill here, 1 object." t l p hoist. * Hon,. J, A. MACDONALD then moved the adjournment of the debate, as there was govâ€" ernment business to be considered by the House. â€" (Hear, hear.) cussing the bill if it was not to be pushed Hon, J, A. MACDONALD said the governâ€" ment had no measure on the subject. The bill would be left to be treated on its merits. The bill was read a first time. QOn the question for the second reading toâ€" morrow, 7 Mr. SCATCHARD moved the three months GUS§ 3. 1s66. the no of 1 i of . Canada: to have two chambers, he ghould v against the amendment.. < .. . °. â€" | . _/ The "metmbers were then called in Al the Mr. FERGUSON, (South Simcoe), said he | thought the day of the double majority was | over, and was very much surprised to hear the hon. member for South Oxford appealing to | that principle.. He held it to be the duty and | the privilege of members to vote upon‘ any question that came before the House. â€"He reâ€" gretted very much that Upper Canada was not to have m second chamber. . He had always looked upon the Attorneyâ€"General East as a man of gemerous principles, but what he had done toâ€"night was the crowning act of his geurait{: for ‘the sécond chamber had been given to Lower Canada, to protect the British population from the unjutt action of his own | countrymen, should they ever attempt it, It would ill become Upper Cauada members to deprive the British population of Lower Canaâ€" da of that protection. : For himself he was opâ€" posed to double majority ideas in this Housé: and would vote for two chambers for Lower Canada, and for Upper Canada,too, if the quesâ€" tion came to a vote. â€"Dr. PARKER said he should vote upon this question according to. his, own convictions, | without considering the views of the members for Lower Canada, 1\9{ had not always abâ€" qh‘i:;d from ‘imposing., upon %pper Canada, * Mr. WHITE, tagood deal of forbearâ€" anpe «shonld hwmw in this < "ht was something more important than an 4 ary question, and believing it to be the 1 of a large majority, of , the. people , of Lower | mem Hon, Mr. BROWN would be glad to accept the arrangement if members from one section were excused. from voting+ on resolutions aftecting the other. * Hon. Mr. CARTTER said the ‘Local Constiâ€" tution for Upper Canada had been framed to suit the views of the people of that section, and the Lower Canada Constitution was framed to meet the views of the majority of the people af Lower Canada. It would be unfair of the Upper Canada members to force their system upon Lower"Canada. He stated his opinion, that Upper Canada was trying a very dangerâ€" ous experiment. (Hear, hear,) It was the opinion‘of Lower Canada that the system of Responsible Government could be carried out better with two chambers than by one. Thé two chaimbers would protect the interests of the two races by preventing hasty legislation, The member for Essex had argued against making Local Legislatures so important, beâ€" cause of the question of, State right nagainst Federal right, but that could not occur with t8, for the Impérial Parliament would enact both the Local and the Confederate Constitations. He appealed to Upper Canadamembers to supâ€" port the proposition agreeable to the majority of Lower Canada. .

If members were to vote upon this question, there were two othersâ€"the Lower Canada education bill, and the Upper Canada bill, should also be voted on in the same way. He hoped that some understanding would be arrived at, as he clt the position to be a very difficult one. fore the House, he was exceedingiy glaskthat no new experiment was to be ‘tried upon Lower Canada. _ He regarded . a xingle chamber as inconsistent with the principles, or at . all events, with the usiges | of the British constitution, and not in harmony with Responsible Government. The Republiâ€" can sagacity. of the United States had confined the single chamber system to the Territories, but whenever the Territories were raised to States, then the two chambers were introduced., Then the Local Government of Lower Canada would have more important functions to perâ€" form than that of any other of the Proviuces. By reference to the 33rd resolution of the Queâ€" bec Scheme, it would be found that the conâ€" trol of the civil and criminal courts of all the Provinces, excepting Lower Canada, might he merged in . the General Government, thus Mr..DUNKIN said there never had been a time since the Union when the great majority of.the British population had not been on the same ‘side of politics, and worked with the great majority of the French Canadiansâ€"a fact that spoke strongly in favor of the good feelâ€" ing which had been called in question. Then as to the question of guarantees, why not guarâ€" antce the British minority in Lower Canada, when â€" the _ Lower Canada majority _ was guaranteed in its institutions against the aggression of the whole British population of the country ? _ With regard to the question beâ€" Canadian nationality, Mr.C.contended that as | the larger body would absorb the smaller, the | Lower Canadians of Frewuch Canadian origin | had a better guarantee for the preservation of | their language and institutiqns under Confodâ€" ' eration than under any other system., I Hon. Mr. CAUCHON mmd&h the hon. gentleman had become the spokesman of those antipathies which had existed before the union. He thought every man ought to forget these distinctions of nationality. He was as good a French Canadian as the hon. uu('mln'r himself, but he denied that any one had‘ ever heard him (Mr. C.) uttera word against a man for his religion, or for his nationality. . A great deal had been said about dead locks. Now there were dead Jocks every where. Had they not scen dead locks between th¢ House of Lords, aud th6 House of Commons ? ~B t every one know that these dead locks were 3" volutionary, betuuscthey always lea to revoluâ€" tionary measures to overcome theim., The reason why Upper Canada had not the two chambers, _ was. . because â€" Upper â€" Canada did not want two. That was a very good reasonâ€"they , wished to try _ the experiment, but it was an experiment that had always dailed wherever it had been tried. Mr. Cauchon then referred to the variâ€" ous governments which either had abandoned, or had never tried the single chamber system, and regretted exceedingly that Upper Canada was to try it, since it â€"had friled every whore else. Regarding the preservation of the French nfl * .| Hoh. Mr.GALT replied, explaining theo:»&( ghkt | of guarantee given to the British population, the 4. It was not because of any ill treatment in the ‘onâ€"| past, but to remove any apprehension of it in salâ€" | the future, ‘The British population in Lower per | Canada had viewed their position with conâ€" nly | sideral le apprehension, after they ‘should be uld | deprived of the protection of the" reptesentaâ€" eck | tives from Upper Canada in their particular self | interests, as they would be in the Local Legisâ€" for | lature, and they desired to have a guarantee . _ | that they should have a place on the floor of Mr, | Parliament to, #tate their case, when they wofl:}l trust to the justice of the majority. ishâ€" | They were not afraid of the majority of the un.| Lower Canadiansâ€"of French ‘origin, but the iwn | time ‘might come when the hon. memâ€" the | ber for Hochelaga and his friends would rule : of | that majority, and the British population were wld | not willing to trust their interests in the all, | hands of that party: .It was as a guarautee lysâ€" A:u:m: "': pn-ty‘oi:.Le hon;:'-lm’oppodh a~> Shat +k aw c OaCa sb w t Datagh c PV Rome, England will cede Malta.
