Hon. Mr. Sinclair opposed the regeption of the motion, on the ground that it con- flicted with the rules of the House. It was a transgression, and the Leader ofthe Op- position knew he was wrong in moving it.

Hon. Mr. Gordon contended that this was the only way to have this matter considered by the Government. The in- habitants of the country had time and again made this request, but their suppli- cations were ignored. The object of this House and of those who legislated therein was to attend to the wants of the people. Asthe Government refused to do their duty in the matter he contended this was the only method of bringing it before the notice of the House. His motion was quite correct.

Mr. J. A. Macdonald pointed out that the motion was quite in order, as the petition had been read by the clerk and was now before the House.
