Hon. Mr. LETELLIEB DE ST. J UST said the hon. gentletman from Halifax had stated that a bill I been proposed in the Legislature to dp away with the exist ing law, but he (Mon. Mr. Letellier) wais informed by very good authority that there was no c!muc‘“his bill would carry, s > that the law would remain as at preâ€" s>nit. Un the other hand some hon. genâ€" tieman in the Senate said this bill was opposed by public opinion in that Proâ€" vince. | This was vety: singular, since the bill had been pasged in the Commons without one disseriting voice, even one hou. member of the Lower House who was wellâ€"known as being an opponent of the bill, not having taken any exception to it. At all events we know that: the members of the Cotmnmons came f rom the people and might be: supposed to repreâ€" sent their opinion. | 5 lon. Mr. MILLER said he had conversed to day with a gentleman representing the largest constituency in Nova Scotia, and he condemuned the bill in toto. _ _ Hon. Mr. LETEILIIER DE ST. JUST wlimitted that one of | the members from â€" Malitax, was _ opposeqa . to | it, but he (Hon. Mr. Letefir) had [just been informed that the Nova Scotia @len- bers in the Commons were so much in favour of the bill t:utl:xot &wordl had been said against it, and they et it pass. e did not think it wout:dbe doing| jusâ€" tige to the people of Nova Scotin ifl this Hfouse refused to sanction a bill which had been supported b{; all the members from that Province in the Commons.| He did not pretend to say that we were obliged to accept it because it had been. passed by the Commons; but the fact that no opposition whatever was made to it in the other House, was good ground for supposing that it met with the approâ€" val of the people. "‘flon. Mr. DICKSON referred to the time when a bill relating to the judiciary was before this House, and a member from Nova Scotia rose: in his place and made the very reasonable request that as we were going to assimilate all the laws of the various Provinces, the bill might stand over till ‘another session, in orflu- that it might be submitted to the judfi throughout the country for them to if there was anything in . it . to,| take exception to. Several members from Nova Scotia made the request that the bill might lay over, but the Governâ€" ment endeavoured to force it through the Senate. â€" A short postponement was, howâ€" ever, obtained, and a consultation was had between the leader of the Governâ€" ment in this House and the nembers of the Government in the other House, and the word that came back was> the bill must pass. He (Mr. Dickson) said on that oceasion the bill should not pass if he could possibly prevent it. . Aftera little lobbying a vote was taken and they gave the bill the six months hoist, by a majority of five, ‘The cases now and then were precisely similar. He agreed with the (*,urvafiom of the hon. gentleman from| Halifax, who as ed the Senate to reject the bill on the ground that it would have a very serious effect. on that Province. Since no harm could possibly arise from delay, he held that the more \ad captandum statement that the bill had ‘passed the other House, was no reason for us to force it through oontn? to the [un imous wish of the Senators from that Province. Hon. Mr, MACFARLANE thought the Govdrnment had better withdraw the bill and | submit it to the Supreme Court Judges of Nova Scotis, smf if they apâ€" proved it, he imagined no hon. gentleman in this House would be found :gpmlnx it. The friends of this bill claimed it was to relieve the Supreme Courts, but it was well known the Judgos of the Supreme Upurt said this bill was wot required, and that| tho present Courts of the ooun(:'ly were amply compétent to discharge all the duties devolving upon them. The people would be much better satisfied with the decision of a Supreme Court Julge, whom everybody knew and trustâ€" éd, than with the decision of an inferior Court, and possibly of an inferior Judge. , Wuile the salaries of" thege County Court Judges would form a not inconsiderable item of: increasedjexpenditure, the sum of $2,000 salary was still so swall that it would be vfigcd to get men of talent to _ accept t 11uifiom, ard â€"â€" conâ€" sequently _ these â€" Courts_ _ would be likely to be filled by an inferidr class of men. e believed if a vyote . could be tiken throughout the Provin¢e on the County Courts bill, that there were three noctiadecint d rhrtcnidhscafdains® Pommaneied hi ncp@ BM in h ts t counties that would sustain it He ad vised the Government to.withdraw the bill till another year, and in the mean time refor it to the opinion of the Supreme Court Judges, who knew better than anyâ€" body else what was in the interests of the people in these natters> ... â€" .

Mr. KAULBACH ‘said the Secreâ€". tary of State had just given one of the best reasons why this bill should not now pass. He says that the Local Legislature will probably amend the County Court Act this session, yet he asks us now to legisâ€" late on the basis of that Act as it now exists. We ought not to do so. It may be that public opinion will prevail in the Nova Seotia Assembly this session, and the Act be repealed or at least: amended in the direction intimated by our hon. friend from Amherst. Very seldom do hon. members from Nova Scotia agree on public questions here. In this case they are & unitâ€"there is no chance to differ. Their opinions, thus strongiy expressed, r ought surely to induce,both sides of this h@nourable ‘body to oppose this bill, as being premature, a waste of public mone7 and not in the interest of the Province to be effected. The Act for which this bill provides does not make the law less cumbrous ot expensive, nor justice more speedily or easily obtained. 1t does not meet existing grievances, but, whilst doâ€" pleting the public revenue to the amount . of some $20,000 annually, with pensions to come}, it would add largely to the taxes of every county in the Province. And all this simply to make places for a few political partizansâ€"already named, it is saidâ€"in some of whom the public could. have confidence. ~ Their decisions would largely be questioned, thus adding to the costs and delay in tarmination of suits. ‘The Supremée Court Judges are oqual to all the work, and the public have confidence in |their law and decisions.
