COLONIAL PARLIAMBNT.

HOUSE OF ASSEMBLY. Turspay, March 10¢h. Afiernoon Session, continued.

Hon. Mr. Hexperson,—I trust that the hon. member who has «at down does not expect me to agree with him oo all points. When ‘he late Government purchased the Selkirk Estate they had the Worre! Estate before their eves, and we know that it was much more encouragin

to the setrlers on the former estete to know that it was!

seli-sustaining thau otverwise ‘The Conse vatives had an estate before them with a debt of £18000, bearing mterest at six per cent. as a warning, when they pur- chased the Selkirk Estate, therefore they wished to avoid the errors of the Liberal Government which had pre- ceded them, by fixing the price high enough to make the estate sel - ustainiag.

Hoo. Mr Jatiseck.—Tho hon. member for Murray

| not doit. Neither do | think it wrong to tell of things | that happened in public) Talk about platforms; what | platform have the Conservatives bad for the last eight } years? IT read an article not jong ago in whien the Con-

servative party was compared to a horse tn harness in a | boat. Me might poll or shove as he liked, but the boac | would still goon If a man has pursued a wrong course | it is right for him to change his views and go in the right

track. If the Conservatives see that the Land Purchase | Bill ia the proper method of settling the Land Question, they have a right totake itup. One gentleman said it was a proof of the honesty of the Conservatives that they had charged the settlers on the Selkirk Estate who were their own supporters, a high price for their land.

Hon. Mr. Henperson —I said it was a proof that they were honest in their endeavors to settle the Land Question.

Mr. P. Stncrars —The clause betore this bon. Com- mittee isa very important one. The IX. Section ef the Land Purchase Act reads as follows :-—

“After each purchase of lands effected under this Act and conveyance taken, it shall be the duty of the Commissiover ot public lands, withia three months to wake a report and returo

!

Harbor (Mr. Henderson) says that the people on the S lkirk Estate were escouraged to purchase their farms, bit L think the high prices fixed by the late Guvero-| ment upeo the lands would discourage them.

Hon. Mr. Henpesson.—l ssid that the late Govern- | ment showed their nouesty in making the estate salf- sustaining,

Hou, Mr Cateeeck —I understood the hon. member | to say just what he bus said, and [ believe that people at times are apt to impose upon their friends. Some years ago the Conservatives contested an election upon the principle of exc usion of gcvernment officers from the EH muse of Asser Diy, and [| was called upou tor my @ ipport. I gard that i¢ was uot my inteation to aceept ollice, but L considered it nece sary that there should be some officers on the fi Althongh that party obtained a maj

yr of this House. ity they proved unfaithful to their pledges and several of them accepted oifice, which shows that men may sometimes impose upon their friends = It apoears that the hon. member, when he evosented to fix the-e high prices upon tue lands on the Selkirk Estate thought he would lay a li'tie of other peopie’s burdens upou the Belfasters. The hon, member for Belfast (Mr. | Duncan) stated that about 50 per ceat, besides costs Was required to make an estate self-sustaining, but the people of Belfast were charge? more than a hundred per | ceat. The promise made 10 the patagraph under dis- cussion, that the people on that estate shal| receive justice and equity. is all that can reasunably be asked for. The Goveroment have been taunted by the Oppo-| sition with being cowardly ; but a man ts not a coward | because he will not fight with shadows. I do not think | there is much substance in the arguments brought for- | ward by the hon. members of the Opposition. ‘The Gov- | erument are blamed for cousulting their supporters before b:ioging their measures before this House, but be-| fore the lace Goveroment brougot down the Fifteen Years’ Purciase Bil! they consulted their constituents oo the matter. At tbat time | entertained and express- ed the very same opinions oa this point as | do at the present time, although L had not the slightest idea of be compng a member of the Goveroment of this Colony. If I were not consulted on a measure intreduced by my | party { would not support it, for L do uot think a man | was in'ended to be moved like # macpine, and to be bound to support every measure that 1s brought torward by his party. The Government can resign if they can- | bOt obtain the support of their party. We hear a great | deal said ubout the unanimity of the late Government, | but how was it that they broke up their party. 1 was} because they could not get a sufficient number to form a} quorum, on account of the went of unanimity. Hon Leaver or rae Orposition.—We are certainly | uuder deep objigatous to toe bon. meaber who has | spoken last, for his essay on coustiiaviousl goverament, House adjoucued tur one bour.

} Afternoon Session. It was moved that she paragraph under considération | be now agreed to. Hon. Leaper or tae Opp osition.—Mr. Chairman,! have already expressed my views on the matter, but 1| should like to bear the opinions of those bon. members| who bave not spoken on the subject. 1 do not think the! Government of the Uolony could enforce payment of the| money still due on the Selkirk Estate. hey could cer- | tainly exact '¢ in « Court of law, but I do not think they | evwid in a Court of equity. We heard a very eloquent | speect: this moroimy from a member of the Governwent, resume of tbe actions of both political pirties for the last fitteen or sixteen years. Tne hon. member stated that he was ones a supporter of the Con- servative Dut chanzed his views becauee | that party liad broken their pledges with relerence to | silowing vffive-bol iers vn the Gor of the House. They | only ofee went to (he country saying that they would ex- | clude oflice-bolders from the tloor of the House, and in| 1853 they candidly acknowledged that principis to be wrong.

Hon. Arrorney Geverat.—There has been a good deal of debating, but whether or not 16 has had any reference to the subject ander discussion is another question | | agree with my hon. friend in reference to tie actions of | the Conservative party —they did not remain true to their | pledges. The hoa, wemoer tor Charlottetown has said a| good deal about vot by ballot. Any person would think trom what the hon. member bas said that he would never | yo°e in such a way, or have any connection with any | person who was iu tevor ot that method of voting. But} he belonged to the Politieal Alliance, and one of its | principles was voting by ballot. The arguments in favor of thia meiood of voting were that each man could vote freely, without being swayed by an, toing but biweown con venus, It do not know how members have tound | out that the present Government do vote by balloc.

Hon. Leaver or THe Oppositiun.—ihe hon. Leader of the Governinent admitted it.

Hun. ATTORNEY “rENE“AL — The Conservatives broke their pledges with regard to paying the Private Secretary. | Tnen there wus the vreat religious question. It was said that the Liberals were going to take the Bibles out of the

Seiools. The Board of Education made it permissive | whether or not the Bibie should be read in the Sehouls, | and the law made it permissrve also. Lhe hon. member | for Uharlottetown would aot have departed from the prin-| ciple of vote by ballut anless be towad fault with it. Bat} I should like the hon. mamber to tell us what are his| optnions with respect to voting by ballot

“Me Barrcwun.—l ie hon. Atioraey General would like | to got a leat out of our book. I never advocated vote by | ballot although I did belong to the Polsical Alliance— | that principle was never carried out by the Aseuciation. | It was @ very convenient method of voting. Many liser- ary societies voted in this way. Why? B-cause there might be occasions when they would wish to black-bail a wan, and gentiemen would not wish to let their views be known = But wile thie mode of voting may do very well in private matters, 1¢ 18 & miserable method for a political party to adopt. The Hon. Attorney Gene. ral has asked for my opinions respecting vote by ballot ; and [ say that when @ Government has to resort to this mode of voting, it 8 something L cannot understand. Tne day was when the fion Leader of the Government woald have kicked the hat out of the House, and | hope he wiil yet do so.

Mr. G. Sixctatr —With respect to the paragraph now under consideration, it appears co me that the late Goy- eroment ia fixing the prices of the land on this estate, could not bave been aware of the spirit of the Land Par- chase Act. It they were, they must bave been trying to| make profit out of it. and L tiink this was the case, for || heard one of the members o! the Government say at the | time, that it wae going to be a paying speculation. The | Act provided that in case there 1s @ deticiency it is to be | wate up out of the General Revenue, but it Favs nothing |

| | {

abvat whac 18 to be done when there is an excess. It is! to be sold to the tenants at as lowa price as possible ; but ic is impossible fur any Government tu fix a prics so that there will beneither loss mor gain) There should have been | € provision that in case of an excess the money should be refandad. If this petition be complied with, the Act! should be changed, if not, any Commissioner who way | hereafter be appointed, wouid b+ afraid ot setting tov bigh a price on the land. If sufficient money bus been | paid to cover all expenses, what is to be done with the | wilderness jand. 1: the Government are not tu make any | profit ouc of the eataie, they cannot Charge uaything tor | the wilderness land. |

Mr. McCormack —Mr. Chairman, I sympathise very | mueh with the down-trodden Tenantry of this island. A part of the district which I have the honor to represent | wae once under proprietory rule, and in a destitute oon- | dition. A man in Chat distriet was visited by three | persone at different times, each of whom claimed rent| from him, and one of them threatened him with legal | process unlees hie claim was settled within twenty-four) hours. In euch 4 case as that it was hard to know which ot the three wae the rightful owner of the geil, However, the three of them went home aod no reot was paid. The people of that locality are now free from rent paying, and | they owe their treedom to the Liberal party. | give the) bon. member for the second district of Queen's County | (lion. Mr. Callbeck) great credit for leaving the Con-| servative party and joining tue Liberale.

Lion. Mr. Cauiveck.—! think I am right when I etate | that Mr. Palmer and Mr. Francis Longworth took offics | when it was ov teary to the pledgee of their party. t came to town bari gv-ry little polities! bias. Although | Ltnen gave my vove to the Conservatives, I did not take | any prowinent paré im polities. But when these gentle- | men tyok oilice, abd asked me to support them, I would |

| charged iu the aggregate to cover all costs, charges and expen

| clause remains in the Act, the Government caunot charge

ol the lands purchased (for each Townehip a separate report and returu) desiguatiog particularly the quality, nature, des- cription, uud positions thereof, aud arranging the same into classes; and it shall be lawtul for, and the duty of the Lieu-

| tenant Governor, by and with the advice and consent of Her!

Majesty's Executive Couneil, thereupon to fix upon and de-| termine the price to be charged tur the sale of each description vt land; the saine to be regulated so that a sufficient price be

sea of the purchase, transier, survey and wabayemeut of Che lauds, the purchase woney aod interest thereon, lose to the | general revenue from deerease in the land tax on acconnt of jand purcuased under this Act, the salary of Lhe Commuissionet

vt Public Lands, and all other expenses attendant upon the | working of this Act—it being iutended that this Act shall If possibile, be Seil-euslaining, and that all eX peuses and outlays

shail be paid out ef money arising trom the sales and rents of | lauds purchased bereuader, and that the purchase woney and lulerest should aisu be repaid ut of the saine fupd, witheut any resurt tu the geveral revenue if it can possibly be avoided; but that this ebject being attained, the lands shall be disposed of lo | the Tenacts and other persous desirous of becoudthyg purchasers, at a8 low a rate 48 possible.” - it bas been suid that the late Government were not aware | that they bad charged too high a price for the land on| this Estate; but | see from the Debates of 1866 that they took great credit to themselves for making a good bar gain. Lhe law is very explicit here; they must send Commissioners to examine the land, and the Government is to fix the price in accordance with their report. The law should be changed, so that in case there 18 any sur- plus it should be retanded to the people It this is not) done it may occasion trouble with other estates as well as this. There is one thing [ cannot well understend—if, after ail the money has been paid for an estate, there is 4 deficieney, what is tu be dune then? The rule should | work both ways. | think it 1s very difficult for any Gov-| erpment, without buving that clause amended, to fix the| price of the land. Lam of the same opinion as the hon member from Princetown (Mr. G. Sinclair) that if this) anything for the wilderness land. Mr. Brecxey.—To whow would the hon. member give! the wilderness land ? Mr. P> Sincnatn.—lIf it is found that according to the law you Cannot charge anything for it, give it to the first who will claim it. Hon. Mr. Macavuay.—There is an axiom in mathema-| icw, that all the parts are equal to the whole. The hvo | member bas only given usw part of the Act. Wall he! tavor this Committee by reading the XX. Section of it. | Mr. Siuclau then read tue twentieth section, a8 fol- lows :— “ For the repayment of all sums of money borrowed uncer | this Act, and the interest thereon, and tur the repayment of all sume coutracted to be paid under this Act, and expenses in- |

curred thereunder, the money arising from the reots, sales, and | profits of land purchased thereunder, and paid into the Treas-| ury, shall, in the firat instance, be pledged and rendered liable, aud the other public funds, moneys, and securities of this Island, shall be and the same are bereby in the next place pledged and rendered liable.” Hers followed some discussion concerning the word |

profit, which appeared in the foregoing section. It was!

| explained, however, that the words ** rents, profics and | | issues,’’ meant the proceeds of an estate, aud nut woy sur-

plus over sud above the cost.

Hon. ATTORNEY GENERAL —With respect to the clause | under consideration, the members on the other side of the! House, although they have the opinien of the Crown Law Uffivers, seem very anxious that the Government should state their yiews on this subject. I should think that tue late Government would bave put the same con- struction on the Act as the Crown Law Uificers have now done ; but when we see them fixing a price which would yield about £6,000 more than tue cost, while they had a large quantity of wilderness land to dispose of, tne con-. clusion is irresistibie, that they must have contemplated | making @ profit owt of it. Luat Government remained io vffice a great many years after the Selkirk Estate was) purchased, but we never heard anything about the) people being charged too high a price for their land. 1 should like to bave an opinion from the hon. Leader of | the Opposition, stating what his views were on the sub-| ject at the time the land was priced. It no excess was} contemplated, why was such a price put upon it. [¢| would be difficult now, to adjust the matter properly, as some of the settlers bave paid all taeir instalments. Al- | though I have never thought much of the Conservatives, | politically, yet 1 thought they would have priced the) land im accordance with the intention of the Act. [| have not heard an hon. member get up and say he dis-| agrees with the opinion of the Crown Law officers. We) know that there is a diversity of opinion among lawyers, as well as amoog doctors, and | should like to know if) any of the legal gentlemen on the other side of the! louse, eotertains a different opinion. 1 eannot but! think that some other opinion was beld when the Estate| was priced. |

fion. Leaper oF tae Opposrrion.—The Hon. Attorney? | Genera! is very kind to ask tor an opinion from this sida | of the House. Unfortunately, however, he adyanees| doctorines one day, which he disregards the next. Yes- | terday be laid down the principle, ¢hati¢ was ridicuious| for this side of the House to ask the Governiwent side anv

question, until all d cuments relating to the question were juid betore them Now he aske this side of the!

Llouse for an opinion on this subject, when the report of| the Crown Law Officers had never been laid before them lion. ATTORNEY (FENERAL —li was brought up in this}

debate, and 1¢ has been pubiisied in the different! newspapers.

ilon. LeapEerR or Tae Oprosition —We cannot take everything that appears in print to de genuine We did

see something there, purporting to be over the signature of the Attorney General and Solicitar General; but it! has never been officially submitted to us. The Hon.| Attorney General was trying to fish out of we, what the| object ot the Executive Government was, in fixing the | scale of prices so high. I[ ean tell him that I was not! Leader of the Government at the time, nor was I a Crown Law Ufficer, so that | am not responsible for any legal opinions un the subject. Batperston, Reporter. | Mr. McNett —I did not intend to speak upon this subject, but as the hon. Leader of the Opposition has so much respect for me as to think that [ should be a mem- ber of his party. L sha!l offer a remark or two, but as it would be toe great a step to go over all at onee, | shal! decline his invitation fur the present, although it is not impossibie but that on some future occasion we may meet half way. Belfast seems to have more than or dinary attention paid to it, for it appears that one of the former, as weil as the present represeutatives of that istrict, take an interest io its affairs, The ques- tion which has now arisen oa the price set upon that Kstate, appears to be one for the investigation of the learned gentlemen of the Bar. No doubt the hon. mem- ber (Mr. Davies) feels an interest in the matter, as he considers that his consiituents were imposed upon by tne late (sovernment, when they set so high a price upon the lands of the Selkirk Kstate. I think it would be well to carefully consider the question and divest the Act ot all ambiguity, as a change of Goverament would lead to a change in the legal gentlemen who would have to eXpress an opinion on this salject, the language should therefore be rendered so piain that diffeent opinions could not be drawn from it. The how member for Malpeque (Mr G. Sivelair) said the Law should be re- vised ; this would he the wisest course (0 pursue, and in addition, it would be well also to adopt the ancient sys- tem of putting up sign boards on the pubic highways | so that * they woe ruu may read.”’

Hon. Leaper or tHe Opposition —One of them was placed so bigh that it could not be read

Mr. McNett, —IL am aware of that, but that wag not right. L think it was unfortunate that this extra sum of money was realized so soon from this Kstate, for perhaps itp laced tunds in the hands of the late Govern- meut, woich were used for oppressing the people. Probabiy, were it not for this, the Troops would not have been brought here, and the Barracks would pot) havé been built; and Sir, L do think it is very fortunate | that they had nv more at their comand, for if they had | they mignt have built a wall around this city like| Trajans, or Graham's Dyke in Scotland, to keep out! those barbariaus to whow Mr. Dodd has referred in| his letter, Ot course the hon, member for Charlotte: | town (Mr. Brecken) in his allusions, will say in presence | of Mr. MeNeill, * oh! [ did not mean you.’ but the statements which be has made makes me feel suspicious) that be is not sincere in such assertions The hon. | meuiber has said that he was insulted by my hon. friend, Mr. Davies, bu he thought nothing of insulting me, and | throuzh me my eonstitueuts, when he said I was a | ‘firebrand,’ is this the compliment tae hou. member |

'was uot going to do anything of the kind.

A

‘pays to my constituents? Would as intelligent and re- spectable a constituency as is on this Island, send a fire- brand to represent them in this House ? No Sir, they would not. [ would not blame the hor. member fr attempting to justify Mr. Dodd's assertions if he bad een certain,frow reliable and properly authenticated evi-

dence,that they were trae; Lut when hetelisus that he only

‘heard them, and when asked for his authority, declined to give it, L hesitate not to say, that be ought not to) have made such assertions, and [ think 1 shail be able to show that bis informant was not from my district. |

| Hoa. Leaper or rue Oppositron,—He was from the}

District represented by the Leader of the Gevernment.

Mr. MacNeitt.—But when [ asked the hon. member to name him, be would not do so. Before utterance | | was given by the hon. member to such a statement, be | should bave taken the man’s oath, and then, bad be pro- | ceeded against the gailty party, no blame could have been attached to him, but to come here and attempt to fix so /oul a slaader, from hearsay, upon so large and respeoisble a community is very uvjustifiable,

Mr. Brecken —Mr. Chairman, the hon. member has) succeeded in misrepresenting we in this matier, It ie | true that | spoke of one mao. with whom | bad a con-|

V-rsation, and related what be said to me, and in doing |

30, Simply stated the truth.

At one time the League |

| wielded an influence, and exerted a sway over its suppole|

iers, which their orgap afterwards denounced, and tnt | man told me that their leaders were Worse than dema gogues. I was not going \@ take that man’s oath ; no, 1 The member bas taken exception to the term * Firebrand,’ | but be should not be so sensitive He should know that it ig a cComon political expression, and that it was u that sense | used it. The hon. member is very wel! aware, that be, or any one else might suceced in inflam.

‘ing the minds of the people to so great an «xtent, that }such an expression ip its political aspeet would be quite |

correct. ‘The bon. member is very well aware of this, | and L tell him that he ts not representing the gouu sense of his constituents when be makes such speeches. the case tv which | referred, 1 might have coijlected | evidence, for several persons spoke freely to we op the | subject, but | had no disposition to do anything of the | kind, but 1 would like that some of these men had been- placed at the Bar, then justice would have been done But 1 do not say that the hon member is one of those who should bave been piaced there. JI will say tus though for the hou. member, that | believe be has fairly siuted hw position, but the Goverumeat which he sup- ports do not support him, nor are bis opinions reflected

Mr. Macnetta —I have just got what I wanted to get out of the hou. member; and L wish, through the Keporters, to let my coustituents know that the hon member tor Charlottetown called me a* fire-brand.”? i am glad also to hear him say that he was sorry that Mr. Dodd was uot a member ot this House. Mr. Dodd was the man who wrote this vile slander against the people of this Colony, and, therefore, | am giad that he is not here. A mao who could put upon paper that waich would rob us of our constituiion, our good name and re- putation, ought not to be here. ** He who robs me of my good name, takes that which dovs not enrich him,

THE GREAT REMEDY FOR

CONSUMPTION,

and acknowledged by many prominent physicians to be far the most Keliable Preparation ever introduced for the RELIEF and CURE of all

LUNG COMPLAINTS.

This well known remedy is offered to the public, sanc- tioned by the experience of over forty years; and when resorted to im season, seldom fails to effect a speedy cure of

Coughs, Colds, Bronchitis, Influenza, Whooping Cough, Hoarseness, Pains or Soreness in the Chest and Side, Bleeding at the Lungs,

Liver Complaint, &c.

Croup,

The unequalled success that has attended the applica- tion of this medieine in all cases of

PULMONARY COMPLAINTS

of La Minerve, Montreal. ‘“ Having experienced the most gratifying results frem the use of Dr. Wistar's Balsam ef Wild Cherry, t am induced to express the great confidence which I have in its efficacy. For nine months | was most crueliy afflicted with a severe and obstinate cough, accompanied with acute pain in the side, which did not leave me, summer or winter. The symptoms increased alarmingly, and so reduced was I that I could walk but a few steps without resing to recover from the pain and fatigue which so slight an exertion eccasioned. At this juncture 1] commenced taking the Balsam, trom which | found tmmediate redie/, and after having used four bottles | was completely restored te heaith. I have used the Balsam in mv fam- ily, and administered it to my children, with the happiest results. lam snrethat such Canadiane as use the Bal- sami can but speak in its favor.

Gentlemen :~—Several months since a little danghter of mine, ten years of age, was taken with Ceugh in a very aggravated form, and nothing we coud do tor her seemed in any way to relieve her suffering. We at length decided to try a bottle of Dr. Wistar's Balsam of Wild Cherry. In three hours after she had commenced using it, she was greatly relieved, and in less than three days was entirely cured, and is now well. have since recommended the Balsam to many of my neighbors, who have used it, and in no case have [ knewn it fail of effecting a speedy cure.

You are at liberty to make any use of the above you think proper. If it shall induce anvhody to use your Balsam | shall be glad, for I have great confidenee in it.

Yours, P. GUITTE, Proprietor of the Courrier de St. Hyacinthe.
