It _dvises them not to reckon to® much upon it, and then repeats its amusing statement to the effect that the Upposiâ€" tion were " never «.ore unite1 and enthuâ€" mastic, more homogeneous or m« ro conf dent than they are now." Of coume wo all know that this latter assertion is altoâ€" amount of unity or enthusiaam, what homogenity or confidence can there be in a party constituted as the Opposition is ? Even supposing that they were able to defeat the present Government and obtain office, it would be impossible for them to John Macdonald‘s Government and the desire of office for themselves.

Mr. CAMPBELL said the very preâ€" amble of the Bill stated the reasons why the Government believed C:nada could legisiate directly on such a question. . He knew the Act reterred to was in existence, but it was conteuded that since it was pussed the British Parliament had alâ€"o passed the British North America Act, yiving the Domunico power to legislate with respect to copyrizhts; and it was a well understood principle that when the Legisl ture expi essod his opinions at dif. ferent times, tho l:test expression was to rule Toe Union Act was broad, end ipplied to _ copyrights gener Hy, and sould not be limited as the hon. gentleâ€" man argued _ As respects the Freaty with Franc», it coul i have no possible cuonec« tion whatever with the maiter before the House.
