mn THE COMET.

Yon car of fire,—we watched its way, Resplencent down the gleaming biue, Since throvgh the twilight’s folding gray

The wor.d-wide wonder flew.

Duly, in turn, each orb of light From out the deepening concave broke ; First, eve’s soft herald swam to sight, Till every star awoke.

The Lyre restrang its burning chords, High flung the Cross its streaming ray,— Then rose Altair, more sweet than words On music’s soul cvuld say.

They, from old time, in course the same, Familiar set, familiar rise ;

But what art thou, wild, lovely fame, Athwart the st«rtled skics ?

Mysterious yet, as when it burst, Through the vast void of nature hurled,

And shook their shrinking heurts at first, The fathers of the world.

In vain the sage heaven’s scroll unseals, Vainly has baflled science striven-~

We only know that there it wheels, The miracle of heaven.

Gol’s minister! We guess no more, Of thee, thy frame, thy missiva still, Than he, who watched thy Hight of yora, On-the Chaldean hill. >

Yet spirit tidings from th#*blaze Transcendant touch this earthly clod— Not even the foo! on thee could gaze, And say—‘** There is no God !”’

HOUSE OF ASSEMBLY. |

Tuvunspay March,28. | | ST. DUNSTAN'S COLLEGE INCORPORATION BILL,

| Hon. Mr. THORNTON moved the second reading of the | | Bill to incorporate the Trustees of St. Dunstan's College. | He said it was unnecessary to go into an explanation of the | Bill—it was simply to give corporate powers to the Trustees lof the Institution. | | Tae Bill was then read and referred to a Committee of ithe whole House, Mr. M'Neill in the chair. | | When the clause was read in reference to the Trustees of | '

{

St. Andrew's College transferring ihe funds of their trust to | the Trustees of St. Dunstan's Colleges, Ion. Mr, HAVILAND said belore the question was put | on that clause he wished to make a remark. Asa general | /rule it was very unusual for the Legislature to diyert funds jappropriated for one purpose to another. It appeared that | ithe late Bishop M‘Hackren left some funds’in trust to estab- | jtish a College at St. Andrew's; and the question was whether | |it was right or not for the Legislature to divert them to an- | jother purpose, especially as there was no petition before the | | House from the parties on the sul ject. | Mr, CONROY said there was a petition from the Trustees, |

Hon, Mr. HAVILAND looked apon the Trustees as hav- | _ing no authority in the ease as long as there was no petition jfrom the party who had appropriated the funds for a College | pat St. Andrew's, Tbe Leyislature, no doubt, was all-power- ful, and could change a will, but be thought it was scarcely

proper legislation, He was disposcd to vote against the clause,

Von. Mr. THORNTON said the funds were not to ke ap- | Propriated to another purpose; but only to be diverted from ithat College to another carrying out the wishes and intentions

of the first donor. When five out of the seven Trustees had petitioned for this transfer, as there was no college at St.

Andrew's now, surely it ought to be granted. Should the ‘rustees wish to establish a coliege again at St. Andrew’s, lying idle, it was better to let them go to St. Dunstan's, | College in the nmreantime, which was not.a sectariaa college, but one for general educational purposes.

Hon. Cel. GRAY thought as the clause was only to trans-

vious day, for in all the speeches which he made during the day he was not a moment on his legs till he began makin misrepresentations. Ie (Mr. W.) had before shown that the hon. member from Tryon had given incorrect accounts of ceediugs of public meetings held in varions parts of the coun. try. He had attended at a meeting held at St. Kleanor’s, at the time the Commissioners opened their court there, and charged him (Mr. W.) with intrigue in getting it up.

Mr. HOWAT said he stated he was informed sach was the case, and that he believed it was true.

Mr. WHELAN said bis information was untrue’and uf.

terly groundiess, and that he had no more to do with getting »

up the meeting than the hon, member from Tryon him

It so happened that he (Mr. W.) in his selaaihenntied through the country had happened to be there at that time ; but the fact was that a principal supporter of the present Go-’ vernment at St. Eleanor's—Mr, James Campbell—was main. ly instrumental in getting up the meeting, In reference te

| this matter he (Mr. W.) felt bound to vindicate his charaee

ter against such an aceusation. Mr. Campbell was even the chairman of that meeting which was got up, as Mr. C. informs ed him, at the instance of delegates from Prince County. He- (Mr. W.) said to him he thought it was not improper that_ such a meeting should take place. He'told Mr. @. that be. fore they held such a meeting it would be necessary to’ have the cousent of the Commissioners, for they adjourned their Vourt at about 7. o'clock, purposing to meet ‘again at 8° A gentleman from Cascumpee wrote out a requisition, and he be.ieved it was presented by a gentleman from the same place, yet he (Mr, a would stand up there an@ accuse him of ine sincerity in reference to that matter for political purposes: . and he had not so much as put a pen-to faski to Arie bap word in the requisition ; nor did he know one word which it- contained, Ue (Mr. W.) was disposed to thivk tle attempts of the hon. member at misrepresentation-were to be attributed to an infirmity of his nature—to a defect in bis cons i‘ution and on that ground be felt inchined: to pardon mich of it” which was levelled against him. ~Mr. Whelan next referred to the recommendation of the Commissioners, and argued that it would be right and proper to ratify it by passing a Bill to prevent the collection of arrears of rent peuding their award; that 93 suits as shown by the hon, Leader of the

Upposition had been instituted against tena i this would not prevent them ; but as the funds were at present | 2 “ eon

& Case@ Was eomutenced when a party recieved a lawyer's let- ter. As regarded the tlumber of signatures to the petitions he said it matters not to him whether they were 1200 or 12,000, For his own part, he most positively declared he

ler the trast fund from ove college to another for the same objeet, and as there was no petition against it from the Ro- iuan Catholics of any part of the Island, the House should pot object'to it. ow

ion. Mr. THORNTON would not like to answer for the whole Catholic population of the Island, but thought if the prescnt Bishop was satisfed with thé transfer, they would be satisfied, ; :

Hou. Col. GRAY could sce no reason why the House ssou'd refuse the request; itwas not proper that the funds should be lying idle.

tion. Mr. HAVILAND said he only objected to the prin- ‘iple; he saw by the willof Bishop Htachren that he did vot leave the mouey for the general purposes of education bat for the express purpose of establishiog a College at St. Andiew’s; and he thought the House should be careful in forming a preeederit

j <Afrer some further disenssion, the clause as read was |

»wreed to, as also for the whole Bill, and reported accord- ingly,

floa. Mr. LONGWORTH presented a Bill to amend the Act to proviae for the revising and reprivtivg the Laws of ibis Island which wos read a first time.

Hon. Col. GRAY presented a message from His Exseel- lency the Lieut. Governor, desiring that the House at its rising to-day should adjourn until Saturday the 30th inst, —lesolved aceordingly.

House again in Committee om the Bill to incorporate “ The Gulf Express and Telegraph’ Company.” Tae Bill Was agreed to with several amendments.

Hon. Col. GRAY presented a petition of divers inhabitants of Charlottetown, Southport, &e., prayieg a grant to the Contractor of Charlottetown ferry, to encourage him to place an additional stream-boat on said ferry, so that it might not

be necessary to cross it, on Mondays, in row and sail boats, |

while the present boat is cleaning buiters—laid on the table.

ffon. Mr. HAVILAND presented a petition of inhabit. ants of North’ River, &e., complaining that James Treanor, Morshead's corner, Lot 32, had been refused a Tavern license on the ground that the two uearest Justices of the Peace had not signed the necessary papers thereto, and prayivg for re- dress—laid on the table.

|. House again in Committee on this Bill. Oa the clause being read ia reference to deeds of conveyauce,

flor, Mr. LONGWORTHL said there was no limitation in the clause with respect to persons in a weak state of mind, as was commonly allowel to be nesessary in reference to members of ali Churches, British Jaw was that if a person |died within a certain time after the decd was drawn, it was null and yoid. This law which was the Statute of Mortmain

M:. BEER.—Nor gove advice abovt poiting them up!

Mr. WHELAN. —Nor gave advice benno ke up, sand be might tell the hon. member fiom Charlottetown more, that had he done so, probably they would have been far more oumerously signed.’ Had be and the hén. leader of the Op- position busied themselves, and ealled meetings for that pur- pose, very likely the number of names would have been thous sands instead of tundreds. As regarded the argument about the Bill contemplated being an interference with private rights, he would ask what the Commission itself was —t h (not on the part of those who signed the reference? He thought it was, and also the Bill to ratify their decision, There were many act on the Statute Book which interfered with private rights, saeh as the Land-tax Bill, the Bill re- guiating distraints, and the One-ninth Bill.

fion. Mr. HAVILAND remarked that the One-ninth Bill — a apie on, Mr, ‘LAN said that made no difference.

lion. Mr. LONGWORTH aid it Ste Pr ya unis versal practice, that it was in accordance with

lion. Mr. WHEDAN said so long ag he retained his seat there he would consider it his duty to advocate such measures as were for the interests of the people and not merely those which might be considered acceptable to the Duke ot News castle. He thought it was degrading to be reminded from /uuté to time that such and such a bill would not receive ihe Royal A!lowanee. The hon. and learned member from ‘Georgetown wou!d not think it unnecessary to be reminded

|

of a rule of Parliament, that it is improper and unparliameus *

taryto use the name of the Sovereign in debate, to influence the decisions of Parliament. The duty of the House was to as- certain what measures were for the benefit of the country, and to pass them independently of the consideration whether or not they would receive the Royal allowance: If they were to be.the mere tools of the Colonia] Offise the fact should ve plainly acknowledged, that they might desist from at- tempting to carry out the powers of an indepondent Legisla- ture, modelled, as it was said, on the glorious Constitution of Britain. Another argument against the resolution was, that if it were adopted it would necessarily require to be fol- lowed up by a Bill embodying its principles For his (Mr. Whelan’s) part he would be satisfied to have even a partial measure passed, one which might affect those only who as- ‘sented to the Commission. That course would involve the ,admission of the general principle contained in the resolution.
