Now, it so happens, that in the Bill inâ€" troduced by the Mrx1eren or Joatics respectâ€" ing offences againast the person, the same provision for ‘**whipping‘‘ is introduced, permiseively, as part of the punishment for precisely® aimilar crimes to those tor the repression of which it has exercised such a salutary influence in England. Some memâ€" beraâ€" objected to this while the Bill was in Committee of the Whole, and it is understood that the Hoo, Mr. Dow1o® will move that «* with or without whipping‘‘ shall be exâ€" pusged from all the <â€"clauses in which the _ phrase occurs. The argument Tus London Cansedian News of the 15th inst. has the following : "The tide of emigration is now setting in toâ€" wards the Dominion of Carada with a stronger current than we bare known it any previous year. At last the groat masees of the emigratâ€" ing classes from this country seem to be alive to the fact that Canada at this moment preâ€" sents more real inducements to migrants to settle in her midst than any other of our coloâ€" nial possessions. Nor is it in this country alone that this fact is becoming generally known. From the continent woe hear that large numbers are arranging for a permanent settlement in the German s«ttlements of Onâ€" tario, and we hbare no hesitation in saying that if the mandat which is at present in torce, prohbibiting the issue of ©Through Tickets," were rescinded, at all events so far as the Grand Truck Railway is concernedâ€"a comâ€" pany that takes special care of all emigrants him to sell his paper at 230 per cent reducâ€" tion from former prices. We are glad to recognize the principle in the establishment of smmall profits and quick retaurns, Call and fore being able to recoverâ€"themselves, the garroter had in most cases Jisappeared with his booty. + This was not straage, for coming up behind his victum, he was generally unâ€" seen, or seen‘ so indistinetly as to elude identification thereaiter, and, unless caught in the act, his chance of punishâ€" ment . was . small. 1t was no wonder that for a time the frequent occurrence of such robberies created inten@ alarm, and quickened the zeal of the police for their deâ€" tection. The robberies continued, but the authorities becoming expert began to be more successful in making captures. The ordinary punishment of imprisonment at hard labour was tound, however, to be toâ€" tally inadequate to check the new art of plunder, and such wase the general indignaâ€" tion throughout Eugland that the proposal w supplement the ordinary punishment due wo the larceny or robbery from the person, with flogging or whipping the culprit who resorted to the process of garroting, the use of chloroform, or other stupefying agency, was hailed (with universal satisfaction. No sooner had this new . provision become law than it was vigourousâ€" ly pukt in force, and, to use m common phrase, it worked like a charm."‘ The * catâ€"o‘~â€"nineâ€"tails" had ‘terror gor those who only laughed at a few months, or a few years, of imprisonment as a very good joke. The once beâ€"fAlogged garroter abanâ€" doned the valuable ageney in the prosecution of his trade forever ; and many who had never undergone the punishment preferred to give up the practice of ;mroting, and conâ€" fine their operations to pocketâ€"picking or other ordinary modes of thievery. Garroting, though not abandoned entirely, has gone much out of fashion, and for this thanks to the lash. strives to maintain himself and tamily by his own industry. ‘This is carrying the doctrine that "virtue is its own reward and "vice its own punishment‘" many degrees further than we should wish to see it recogâ€" nised ; and though we should heartily depreâ€" eate the introduction of a barbarous prison discipline, we think that a little more dare for indigent honesty would better become the modern pbilanthropist than his zeal for the comfort of viee. Norwrrustaxping the dullaess of the season we ars gratificd to learn that Magee & Rusâ€" sell‘s sales for this montb, so far, are fully 60 per cent. more than last April at the same time, This should satislfy the wiseâ€"acres, who prodicted they were leaving the shilliog and guing to the sizxpenny side of the street, that it is uow the ciAtcenpenny side, and proves that the public are not long in finding out where they get well served. sonmections with large wanulacturers in Manchesterafford advantages which enables F. and. m" T nngtment uf Heate Puromarng T. & W.

Their victims, usâ€" able to give alarm, or to make resistance, were fain to submit to having their pocket® rifled, and the contents carried off ; and beâ€" There ate many sensible, kindâ€"hearted men who thinkahat modern humanitarianisa menuces society with evile no less destructure to social order than was the extreme severity of our forefathers.

If persons were to have these «xclusive rights, they should be given them for as limited a period as . possible. There was another privciple in the Bill which had hot been adverted to : that was, if a patent was applied for and taken out, but was not acted upon within a limited time, it should It will be seen from the forrgoing that any one who has taken out a patâ€" nt in any one of the Provinces of the Dominion can bave the same extended to the whole Dominion, proâ€" v‘ded he is * a British subject, or a resident in any Province of Canada for upwards of a year," for the remainder of the term men. tioned in such‘ patent, on the conditions therein contained. He did not see that any injustice wonld be done by not granting to the patentee the extension of this patent to the whole Dominion. When they procured their patents for New Brunswick or Nova Scotis, they thought they were sufficiently rewarded for their labour, and he did not sâ€"e what right they would have to come and ask to bave it exteaded beyond the Province in which it was originally grauted. It must be remembered that a patentis akind of monopoly, though he did not mean to say that the word monopâ€" oly should be taken in its fullest seose, but nevertheless it is a monopoly, because it gives to a man the right of manuflacturing or vending alone, an article useful to the public ; certainly there was great reason tor granting this monopoly. It was to encourage men of genius to work for the benefit of the public by rewarding them for their Jabour. znt when on:o such discoveries are ma«de, he d at right a person who has made tbomlu has to P::ono and ask to have that exclusive tight extended. When he got his patent for a particular place or province he was circumscribed, and conâ€" sidered bimself sufficiently rewarded. l‘u hoped the Bill would recelve the favourable consideration of the House, and be would now move its second reading.

What has been the history of patents of invention? We need not louk to this or to that Provinc«, but to the civilized world. Let us, look at the countrics of Europe and see what progress has been made there. (Eogiand has made grâ€"at progress from the time of James I., when the law of munopoly was «nacted, up to the prâ€" sent tim», in extâ€"ndinog the patent rights. It has long been toe law ther», that toreignoe s «an obtain patâ€"nts as well as residonts, and ulicos as well as subjects, There, all legisiation is not in the inte:eâ€"t ot individuals, but is tor whaut is culculated or supposed to bring home to that nation â€" gome material benâ€"fit He l then referred to the facilities for obtainiug patents in Austr‘a, and said> be did not think we should be behind that country in this respect, when our prospects were looming up‘so great and grand as we are told they‘are.. He then spoke of the law in Bavaria, and in Belgium where the owner of \ the patent must work it one year bâ€"fore ob= taining a patâ€"nt law, instead of requiriog a yeur‘s residence in the country â€"by the person desiring the patent. No perâ€" son, he thought, woul!i go into a foreign couutry and reside a year, for the purpose of, getting m patent, unless it was going t be of extraordinary valce to bim. In Sardinia inventors, whether native or foreign, may obtain patents, the patent becoming void if the invention is not work«d within a given time, He then referred to the Patent Laws of France, Hanover, Holland, Poland, Prussia, kussia, Saxony and Mexico, as being very liberal in their provisions for foreigners obâ€" taining patepts ; but here in Canada there was an exception to this rule for granting patents to all alike, whether foreigners or reâ€" sidâ€"nts. Now these facts should show that the ground taken confining patents to resiâ€" Cents of Canada, should not exist in our legisiation. It should be open to all invenâ€" tors ‘to obtain patents. In refusing this we are cxpunln.{l the opinion that we are wiser than ‘ the civilised countries of Europe and America We soy they are wrong and we are right, and we place ourâ€" selves nndlo.r the uo:ldty of mul;lbnlg that position. Is it e, or even probable, that Those nations should all be mistiken in‘ this matter of patâ€"nts? Are we surs that we are rot in the wrong? This reminded bim (of the definition |;lnn of an insane man ; that there was a diff:rence of opinion between the insane mah and the rest of the world ; weare placing ourselves very much in the position lof the insane man in expressing a different opinion from the rest of the world. ‘The 6th clause and the 3lst clauso appear to have __Mon. Mr. SANBORBRN did not look upon the Bill before them as a compromise _ and assimilation of the laws of the several provinces, but the adoption ofa policy re. garding *‘ patents of . invertion," â€" for the Dominion. He did not know why they should be lufluenced by local considerations in regard to the principle they should â€"adopt. This bill so far as it makes provision for obtaining patents, confines it to the Departâ€" ment of Agriculture. â€" A law on this subject is very much desired. _ Under the present law it is exceedingly difficult, or almost imâ€" possible to obtain patents over that portion of the Dominicn which was tormerly Canada, and the same rule must apply tothe other provinces, as it is doubtiul what interpretaâ€" tion courts of law would give to patents obtained under the circumstances then existâ€" ing, applied to & diffâ€"rent state of things which now exist. Therefore it was necessary we should have a lew extending over the whole Domiuion ; in this view ho was preparâ€" ed to sustaia the Bill as ho was on a formeâ€"r eoccasion. He hoped the Government would not be so0 factious in their opposition this Session, (laughtâ€"r,) as to stop wholesome lexislation (which was in adrap:so of views exphssod in this Bill. We were ready to accept the Bill, and it would be only fair on the part of the Goverumâ€"nt to accept our amendments t> it, if they could not do auy better. On aformer occasion he had the henour of expressing his views, which views he stit! whh.red to. He had be!ld those views for a uumb r of yearg, and they bad been strongthâ€" ened by the investigations he bad since given been inserted from certain local reasons, which â€"ought not to be considered in 8 & the 31st clause, that partics having cxisting patents in either of the Provinces may apply tor & patent eonl'lz the whole Dominion, providing the man of the article patented has not been undertaken,or the article sold with the conient of the patentce. Sup. pose a patent has been taken ont in Nova Scotia some ten years ago for the manufacture of ‘a certain article, Since then _ the _ knowiodgo of that invenâ€" tion may have come to this part of the Dominion, and a manutactory established for its production, and it may now be sold, but not with the consent pt the patentse, In that case, if you pass this law, you interfare with individual rights. ‘That was an objecâ€" tion against this clause in its. present form, if he understood it right. . And: upon the whole, he thought if we were to have paâ€" tent rights, and our patent laws assimilated, the attempt has boen successf@!, and the Minister ot Agriculture doserved great credit for the present Bill. He hoped the House would give it a favourable consideratipn, as it was an important measure. | THK OTFVA WA TIMES, APRIL 2 Mr. McKENZIE s#§pported the Bill.

Mr. McDouâ€" gall baving become members of the Reiorm Club in England, and resumed.] Nothing but the influence of such a system ces. They had the power to create the disqualifiation. ‘The Local Legislatures could deciare that neither senators nor memâ€" bers of this House could sit in them, which this Parliament could not do, ~After replying to other arguments of the mover of the Bill, Bir George hoped that ‘ths hoon. gentloman would withdraw bis Bill, Mr. BELLERQSE enquired whether it is the intention of the Government to provide for the construction of an inclosure wall for the prnitentiary and the asylum at Rockâ€" w9od, near Kingston, and if so, when ? Sir JOHN A. MACDONALD, who was indistinctly beard in the gallery, was underâ€" ktood #o say that the , provision . for these walls was made by statute. PRIVATE EXéCCTIONS, Mr. MORRIS moved the second reading of the Bill to provide for the earrying out of Capital Punishment within prisons. The prac. tice had been adopted in England after the most elaborats investigation,. and had giveh general satisfaction, In 1866, a Royal Comâ€" mission was appointed in England, which exâ€" amined the whole question, and tho result was the grecominendation of private execuâ€" tions. He thought it would be wholly un necessary in the present state of public feeling. to take up the time of the House imarguing in favour of the Bill.. The system of private executions gave more real solemnity to the sentermce, and prevented those scenes which were sometimes the reeult of the assembling of great crowds. He moved the second Mn& of the Bill. Mr. BOWELE, seconded by MroBRO WN, moved the second reading of * the \Interest Act of Canada.*>\ x Hon. Mr./ ROSE hopot chis hon. h\l&nd would allow the Bill to stand. The question of interest of money was at present under the serious Considâ€"ration of the Government ; aud as the Province of Nova Scotia was peculiarly situated with respect to it, it would be necessary to devote some time to the question. The Government, however, would announce their policy regarding it as soon as possible, The Bill was allowed to stand. THE DUAL REPRESEXTATION®. Bir JOHN A. MACPONALD said the Bill might be read a second time, and then taken into considcration in ~connection with the othes Criminal Law Bills before the Housc. The Bill: was read & second time and referâ€" red‘to Committee of the whols on Wednesday next. > was a slight difference,‘ however, between this Bill and that of last year. Last year the hon. mover proposed to interfere with those sitting in the other branch of the Legislature to which he (Sir George) bad made objection. He was glad to see that his hon.friend had a good memory, for he had avoided this objec. tion in the present, shewing that be had beâ€" coeme wiser, and he (Sir Gâ€"orge) now proposed to remind him of other objections to the Bill, which be hoped his friend would reâ€" member for another year. Besides the obâ€" jections made by the hon, member for Montâ€" calm, which were good against the Bill, he woudered that the mover, who professes to hold very liberal principles, should attempt to circumscribe the liberties of the people in the free choice of their representatives, But even if the Bill were passed this House could not restrict the choice of the Crown in making a Senator of a member of a Local L« gislature gccording to the provisions of the British North America Act (from which he reud.) Since then this House could not exclude members of the Local Legislatures from sitâ€" ting‘in one branch of the General Parliaâ€" ment, why should it be aitempted to exclude them from the other? ‘The spirit of the Constitution was against the principle of the Bill, If the hon. gentleman~ was deterâ€" mined to expel the members of the Local Legislatures from this House let him work up the public opinion of the several Provinâ€" Mr. MILLS moved the second reading of the Bill (No. 4) " An Act to render members of the Legislative Councils and L+gislative AucmblLlcl of the Provinces, now included, Mr. DUFRESNE believed the principle of the Bill was wrong. ~It was quite rtight that m n in public employment, receiving the public moncy in payment, should be éxcluded‘ but to pass this Bill would bs to exclude those who were the best qualified to legislats for the p=ople. The honouravble member said the pâ€"ople were against the double represenâ€" tation, Mr., MILLSâ€"Hear| bear Mr. DUf'REBNEâ€"-WolI if the people are against it, let the people vote it down. (Apâ€" plause and laughter.) As he bad -ld( the principle was wrong, and he did not think the arguments ot thy hon. member would conâ€" vince a single member of the House to the contrary, He hoped the bill would be voted down. + Bir GEORGE E. CARTIER said he would rewind the House of what he ‘had said last session concerning a similar measure, There Mr. CHEVAL addressed ths House in French in favour of the Bill. or which may hereaiter be included, within the Dominion .of Canada, incligible for sitâ€" ting or voting in the House of Commons of Canada." Mr. Mills went over the old arguâ€" ments against the dual reprosentation, conâ€" tending that it was injurious to the indepen~ dence of the Lotal Legisiatures. It had been said bâ€"fore that this was a.matter belongâ€" Ing to the constituencies for decision ; but if that were correct, why .deny the constituâ€" encies the right of electing Judges of the Superior Courts, or aliens, orâ€"any ° other parties incligible by law ? Parliamwent , had already undertaken to limit the choice of the constituencies, and it was as competâ€"nt to do it in this particular as in any other. He then argued that the members of the Local Lerislatures sitting in this House could be unduly influenced by the Government. For the reasous given, he moved the second readâ€" ing of the Bill. (Applause.y > Hon. Mr. F answer to this answer to this important question until the budget came down, (Laxughter.). Mr. BENOIT enqguired whethor, with a view to the effective protection of our manuâ€" factures, and in order to give an impetus, such asis absolutely required to the establishâ€" ment thereof, it is the intâ€"ntion _of the Government to raise the duties on foreign manufactured goods, and more particularly on articles, the raw material fotr which abounds in the country ? .

IX TEREST OF MOXEY, ROSE l_ald» ho must defer the (To be Continued.) Weoxzsoar, April 28. presented. Fortyâ€" chair at three Hon, ) the tions, The Hon. Minister of Militia and the Premier of Quebec had also appealed to the Province of Quebec on precisely the same grounds, and the result was the same. The dual representation had nothine at all tem should not be disturbed. As to the elecâ€" tions in West Y ork and Kamouraska, though it was true that the present representatives of these constituencies might be presumed not to be supporters of the present Government, yet the circumstance was not rema;:kable. They had recently seen in England that Mr. Gladâ€" stonce and two members of his Government had been defeated ; yet no one woul1 pretend to say that Mr. Gladstone‘s Government did pot enjoy theâ€"confidence of the English peoâ€" ple. Sir John A. Macdonald was addressing himself to other matters referred to by the member for Lambton, when it being six o‘clock the Speaker left the chair, Aftor Recess. Bir JOHN A. MACDONALD resumed the debate, referring to the circumstances under which he"and the member for Cornwall had gone b:fore the country at the geneial elecâ€" aual l;sl)ruonwlon had nothing at all to do with the appeal, to the , country, nor SirJ, A. MACDONALD raid the very fact that the constituen:y of West Durham hbad overruled the judgment of its representative was one of }he strongest reasons why the sysâ€" Mr. MoKENZIE contended that the electors had been deceived atthe general etections ; and appealed to the result of the elections in West York and Kamouraska, as a proof that the ceuntry had changed its judgment, H¢ said it was quite natural that the electors of West Durham should sâ€"ek to retain the serâ€" vices of the eminent member who 1epresented them, and so with the county of Bruce, but that hon. gentleman himself was against tie dual system. + Hou. Mr. HUNTINGDON eaid that the logical conclusion of the principal argument against the Bill was that the Local Legislaâ€" tureg should be abolished altogether. (Hear, hear.) The whol¢ cry about barmony was but another form of the reasons put forward in favour of the Bill. The harmony of making the Local Legislatures subservient to the General Governmeht was not the harmony he desired to see. ‘This Bill, if adopted, would tend to secure the indâ€"pendence of the Local Legislatures ; and though tor the present it would no doubt be voted down by alarge wajority the time would come when the House would be compelled to accept it. | wiLRGraW Di@{Dill, Mr. YOUNJG, after referring to previously advanced arguments, and giving his version of the circumstances which led to the result of the general eleol.ionl‘ said he should vote for this Bill, as he should for any other that would tend to diminish the growing power of the Crown in this House. ‘Too much power and authority were being placed in the hands of the Executive. € Bir JOHN A. MACDONALD said it apâ€" pearod that \the gentliemen opposite were continually seeking excuses for their having failed to carry ‘the general elections. The appeal to the people had gone against them, and they wore ever seeking excuses for this fact, It had been said> that theso elections were carried by a conspiracyâ€"a conspiracy was a thing conceived inthe dark ; but they had gone to the country in. open day. The member for Cornwail and himsslf had gone openly betore the people, from constituency to ‘constituency, ani advocated â€" harâ€" mony _ between the Local ‘and Genâ€" eral Governments, It had been said that the country was against the dual\systâ€"m ; but what was the fact? Why, when the memâ€" ber for Bruce, in the Local Legirlature, who represents West Durbham in this House, asked the e1 ctors of West Durham to relieve him of the double responsibility, they refused to do so, therâ€"by showing that, according to their interpretation of R form principles, the dual system was unobjâ€"ctionable. The prinâ€" ciple of the Bill was not one which shbould be legislated on here ; but by the Local Legâ€" islatures. In Nova Scotia and New Brunsâ€" wick the Logisiatures had already declared that their mâ€"mbers should not sit in the House of Commons. It was quite competent tor them to do so,. But bow was it in Onâ€" tario? _ Whby, at the last meeting of the Legislature it was declared by solemua vote that the two dutics were not incompatible. Now the â€" Legislature represerted _ the same‘ constituencies as those represented from that Province in this House, and its deâ€" cision ought to be accepted‘ as the #d‘ment of the clectors of the Province. hy then should the hon. membâ€"r persist in forcing a measure which had already been condeinned by the Legislature of his own Province? He boped the hon. member would cousent to withdraw his ;/Bill. Hon. Mr. CHAUVEAU briefly addressed the House in opposition to the Bill. Mr.CHAMBERLIN had opposed a similar Bill las: year, ou the ground of want of exâ€" perience, and he would do so again. It was true be had seen some things that made lim think less in favour of the dual system than he kad dons; but we were yet without the necessary experience to warrant us in upsetâ€" ting it. It had surprised him to listen to the arguments advanced by the advocates of this Bill. Their whole complaint appeared to be that there was too much harmony,too much unâ€" animity, too much good feeling in this House. They desired to return to party warfare; to wranglings and disputes. They advocated this Bill, because of much harmony between the Local Gavernments.of Ontario and Quebec ; but in his opinion it would have been far betâ€" ter had every member of the Local Legisâ€" lature had a sâ€"at in this House. They would then have Ciscovered that Canadians were not such as they had been represented. Another reason for opposing this Bill now, was that there was no immediate necessity for it. ‘There was plenty of time to consider the effects of the present system, and he would like to see the good old.English pracâ€" tice.of not rushing too hastily into chaunges. manent it would probably lead to evil conâ€" sequences. But he regarded it as a temporary arrangement, which, in the natare of things, would not lastlong. He should, therefore, vote against the Bill. Mr. JACKSON said that in establishing the proper relations between the Local and General Governments created under the Imperial Act, the dual ‘ representation had been productive of ‘some benefits. It bad contributed very materially to bringing the Legielatures into general barmony. Were it to become: perâ€" Mr. MASSON (Terrebonne) said at the commencement of Confederation it was found dexirable that in the Provincs of Ontario and Quebec members of expeiiâ€"nce should be lound to carry out the new Local Governâ€" ments, New members who had sat for a year or so in this House, did not eren yet know the rules, and how could it have been possible for sixtyâ€"five new mâ€"mbers to have managed the, Legislaturs of Quebec. He looked upon the‘question as a practigal one, without caring whether it was Conservative or Reform, and be bâ€"lieved practically the double system had been advantageous. 6 Mr. BODWELL argued that it was absurd to contend that this House could not propérly exclude members of the Local Legislatures,seeâ€" ing that so many class=s were already excludeod. And as to restricting the people‘s choice, that choice bad been‘restricted already. He conâ€" tended that tho maintenance of the dual system was dus to a desire for a retrograde movement towards a Legislative Union, He maintained that if the people were deprived of local controlâ€" of local affiirs, they would be deprived of one of the ‘greatest boons conferred by the new Constitation The Bill met the general approval of the country, and the principal objection against it had been that brought by the Ministcr of Militia ; but if that objection were to be susâ€" tained, then the doors of this House should be thrown opâ€"n to judges and all other classes at present excluded. as dual representation:could havre led the members for Cornwall and Brant to become the supporters of gentlemen on the Treasury Benches. He argued that the system desâ€" troyed the independence of members, and if carried to any great extent would be producâ€" tive of most disastrous consequences. He supported the second reading of the Bill. Mr. BLANCHET contended that the dual system was in conformity with the general practice of confederations having general and provincial legislatures. He reforred to the Noith German Parliament and the Austrian Reichstath, froin neither of which were the members of the local legislative bodies excluded, Jt was only in tho United Btates â€" of . America whore thero was any provision against it, and there the double representation was prevented by an article in each of the State Constitutions. Aund so our Provinces had the power to prevent their nniombers from sitting in the House of Commons if they saw fit to do soâ€" He conâ€" cluded by moving the six months‘ hoist. F put.. â€"{Applahse). â€"â€"_. â€" _‘ ; â€" _ â€"â€"_ _ Mr.â€" BELLEROSE spoke in reply to Mr. Mr. JONES argued against curtailing the rights ol the people in the choice of a repreâ€" sentative. ‘I‘hey had heard the ‘member for Shefford aHuntlngdon) say that the comâ€" bined influences â€"of the General and Local _ Governments _ was > irresistible, and the membsr for Lambton quoted instanâ€" ces of recent elections where the influence of both had been set at defiance. Hs depreâ€" cated the remarks that had been made about the Hon. Minister of Public Works. â€" It bad been said that he had been seduced, but he had joined the Consâ€"rvative party under the leadership â€" of Mr. . Brown. Now if Mr. Brown hbadâ€" . bâ€"en reduced, and if the late member for Woest York had been seduced, what guarantee was there that the hon. member for Lambton might not himâ€" self be s.duced. (Laughter.) He believed that thoy must have been consenting partiesâ€" that noaction for seduction could lie against the Premier. (Râ€"newed laughter.) There had been too much siid about party, but there could be no distinction of party without distinction.of priveiples, (hear, bear,) and even the member for Lambton endorsed the goneral. policy of the Governmont. He (Mr. Jones,) cared not for Consâ€"rvative nor, Mr. MoCONKEY had been invited to accept the double seat, but had declined. As to the remarks made during this detate about the bad faith of the Government, he had seen nothing of it in his constituency. He agreed with the remarks of the member for Halton, %White), in his remarks about the Minister of ublic Works,. He had confidence in that gentlemman and his collâ€"agues, when the Govâ€" eroment was formed,and he had confidence in him still. He made this explanation be. cause he intended to vote againet the siz months‘ boist of the Bill now befo:e the Mr. WHITE said the people of* Ontario were not in favour of the Gual representaâ€" tion. He regreited that the measure had been discussed from & party poiot of view, though he was a believer in party governâ€" ment. Yet he still more regretted the course pursued by the member tor, Lamwnton, in condemning the Minist=r of Public Works, whose past services in the cause of Reform should not be forgotten. Hs also hoped to see the reconstruction of the Great Reform Party, and that it would win over the mMinisâ€" ter of Militia, Hs hopsd the measure would prevail. Hon. Mr. CHAUVEAU repoated thitt@ had not made the statement attributpg33%5 him by the member for Hochelaga. CA Hon. Mr. DORION said he had sGtpS y he had been informed ; and congiudcUsLy argument in favour of the Bill, by steting that proportionally there were more p â€"n in this Mouse than in the English Fious» . of Commong, and with such a stats of things the proper independence of Parllan%xt could not be preserved. f * _ Mr. BLANCHET said heâ€"did not hear the Prime Minister of Quebec making use of any such argumâ€"nt as that aitribut«d to him by the member for Hochelaga. <As 8 er of that House he would have rememb f-fii( he or any other member had made such #stateâ€" ment regarding the Federal Parliamâ€"nt being the propâ€"r\Legislature to dispose of the quesâ€" tion of dual representation. * I:fERGUSSON spoke in favour of the amendment, A Bill ha«d been pass d in the ‘Ontario Legislature excluding Loc.#kten from sitting in the House of Tom .‘ KHe regret‘ed, therefore, to.hearthe censures that had been p-ua(g upoun the members for Cornâ€" wall and Brant. ‘There was nothing unconâ€" stitutional in a constituency electing one member to represent them in both Legisiaâ€" tures. â€"He regreyted that they had not had any members of the Local Legisliatures ot New Brnnswick and Nova Scotia sittings in this House, If therefhad been the harmony between these _ Provinces â€" anad. the . Dominion would hbave been much greater,. ‘There had ~been nb complaint from tHe public regarding the dual representation, although they found that every small grievâ€" ance was made the subject of petition. He was satisficd if the question were*left to the people, they would décide the question to" their own satisfaction. Mr. POZER said he was a momborE&Hl Quebec Legislature, and he could corro the statement of ths hon. member for Hoc Hon. Mr. CHAUVEAU said his hoh. was mistaken, he had never stated an of the kind. P Mr. DORION argued that the contrmuance of the . dual systeimn was destructive to the independence of the Local Governments, inasmuch as while the nembers â€"of the General Government held seats in the Local Parliament they could bring an influence to bear upon the members of the Local Governâ€" ment to comgel them to support the General Goveroment in ‘the Dominion Patliamést. He charged the hon. membe: for Qu°% inconsistency in opposing this Eill, beca in former times he belonged to the most * vanced wing of the Liberal party, and & warm supporter of the independ £ Parliament. He argaed that the Ontario had shown that they were &PDosed to the dual system, only two members from that Province having been elected to both Parliaments for the same constituency, the other membe»rs holding sâ€"ats in both Houses, being each a representative of a separate constituency for each House. The hon. Preâ€" mier had said this question should be left to the decision of the Local Parliament, but"at the last session of the Quebec Legislature the Premier otf the Quebsc Government bad arâ€" gued when this quâ€"stion was before that body, that it was a question to be decid‘%:by the Federal Parliament. _ Mr. MoKENZIE continud, contending that the couniry had begun already to los« confidence in the Gorernment ; that discopâ€" tâ€"nt prevailed at one point ; that annexa was cropping out atanother, and that Minister of Finance was on a fair 0 fioding himself with a large deficit. : claimed that the Liberal members * hered to a principle, and that even â€" thou in a minority in the House, they deservred least the credit of being inspired by lxnirf\ peachable motives. (Applause on the left.) Mr. FERGUSSON ros« t a question ot ord ‘r, He wished to know whether these g ntiemen wetre in order io taking such a wide range of debste. He did notâ€"see what connection there matters hai to do with the Bill before the House. *A » Mr. SPEAKER ruled that the member for Lambton was in order. Mr. McKENZIE again rose to explain his views on Coalitions. H» denied that the iâ€" sue at the gencralelections of 1867 was the success of Confedâ€"ration, It was trus that the honou:able IPrewmier and his colleagu«s bal . gone to thé country _ with _ tlhis ery, and had endeavorred ‘to persuade the clectors that the members of the Libesal party were disunionists, because they «id not susâ€" tain the Coa ition. On Mr. McKenzic‘s re. ferring at some length to Englis‘s politics, did it affect the‘result of the elections. IHso regretted that ths hon. memberfor Lambton, who had sanctioned the Coalition of +1864%, formed between men who had oppo==d each other for twenty years, had not sustain=d the Coalition of 1867, to build the saperâ€"strucâ€" ture on the foundations laid by the Conâ€" lition og 186 1. If ever there . was acalim and deliberate verdict of the people exâ€" pressed through a genceral clection it was at the election of 1867. Bofore the Jast sâ€"ssion of the old Provincial Parliament it was known by everybody that there must bo a new election when the Union Act came into â€" force; _ and the > people â€" calmly and deliberately pronounced their: judgâ€" ment. The union of, the Provinces involved the abandounment of all petty provinâ€" clal quarrels in the General Legislature, and the quarrels and disputes of Upper or of Lower Canad: had no.more right in this Legislature than thos> of Nova Scofia or New Brunswick. The new Dominion gave them all an opportunityy of forgetting their differences about a Clergy Resorve quesâ€" tion, or a Seignorial Tenurequestion, or ant other old issue, and rise to: what he believed was the higher and purer politics of the Doâ€" minion. As to the responsibility attaching to a Minister of the Crown, even Mr. Bright had warned his constituents that he might be compelled by a soense of. duty to go into the lobby,; and to vote on the side which he hadi formerly opposed.
