The change which the llill would cll'ect, rtlativc to tlu- Normal School, was, he said, culculalctl to destroy the future usefulness of that Institution. lie was not in favor of gi '- ing a grant to the Roman (Tatholic Elish- op, nor for separate schools, but as head of the 35,000 liomun (.‘alholics who gavc their undii idcd support to the party now in power, that gentleman bad a right to expect what he considered justice at the hands of that party. Ilc then replied to the remarks made touchng the actions of the Conservative party, by hon. mcm- bch on tho (lavcrumcnt side of the Ilousc, and said that no allusions of that kind would satisly those. disappointed at the manner in which the .\Icinoi'i.~l ol the l’..l1.l$ishop had been treated.

llr. liicltum alluded to the peace and harmony that prevailed when no such religious di" isions and bickcriugs as that now displayed on the floor of that House existed in the Colony—when (Yatholics and Protestants alike contri- buted to the buildings of each others cimrchca and schmdhuuws. and all lived as neighbors should in the enjoyment of peace and good will towards each other.

Mr. Arscnnult said the amendments in the bill were, on the whole, an improve- ment to the fichool Act.
