other question into this debate, bat | based my remarks on the mtended constitution of the Board of Works, and }eontend itis a fair inference that it will bave a politi- ext bDiae, unless the matural rule be reversed, that like begeta like Hon. Lxapoex of THe Gevernment.—-It would appear thet the bon. member (Mr. Henderson) must nave been at the Council Board himself, and from his experience there, has come to the conclusion that Executive Coun- clilors are pot to be trusted. He seems to think that the Government should have no influence in the Board of Works; bot where so mach money w be applied, the Government should have some control over it. This paragraph states that three of the five members of the Board shall be chosen out of the Goverment, this is to give the Government such influence that they sball be responsible for the way ta which the money is expended. It waplan which has been adopted in other countries. The Board of Works should be composed of men in whom the country has contidence, and surely members of the Exrcative ure such, or they would not be in their present position. | objected to one part of this paragraph, via that the Colonial Seeretary sould be Chairman of tie Sourd of Werke, for I considered that the Chairman ol that Board, should bea man who had a perfect know-

ledge of road making, and the Colowal Sceretary of the day might not be possessed of that knowledge. [f have been vi opinion for many yea that sumething ot this kind was required. [t frequently happens that # piece vo! road whieh is very bad in autumn, 18 the best in the aprimg, aud for want of sume person to | yok after this busines?, m ney may be grante: for a place where it ts

not re quived, and sometimes parties petition fora grant

tur sume bridge merely to get a job but if we bad a Board of Works these evils would be remedied, and the public money Ju hieiously ex; ended

[| am aware that it bas been the custom ter cach party tu make « clean sweep, in reference 0 poutical appoint- ments, bus I thought that a pew systew was to be in- sugsrated, and efficient officers were nut . be removed merely oa account of their politteal opinions. [ did pot ay the Board of Works should be independent of he Guvernment, but what | conteuded for was this, that he Government sheuld endeavour tu carry out these im- provements, by appomting the most competent persons that could be fomnd, and uot be buund to appoint @ ma- erity of them from the Exeeunve, whieh might be com- posed of men whe understood very little of road mnking- In regard to my opinions beim the result of my own ex. perience, itis not so; and although [ had some exper ience in connection with the late Government, I may s1y that our domyge were always open apd above board, we pever had recourse to the bailot box. and we are not ashamed to meet each other to-day, although, on impor- tant and fundamental! principles we did decide.

Hon. Mr McAuLay ~—!t is ny opinion that the Com mittee apy ointed to bring in this report bare paid a great deal of arention to the subject; but we cannot expect thas it would be such as to meet tie views of every hon. mewber. Tue prine:ple objection uf my bon friend, is in reterence te the construction of Board of Works. It should not be @ sim¢ yua non, that a majority of the Soard should be w mbes of the Government, fur these would be salaried gentiemen, and would be obliged to go back to their cunstituents tor re-eleciiun, wad if they happened to be rejected, the Guvernment would be placed in an awkard position. | think it would be as well to have this report printed in the newspapers go that at conld be seen by everybody, and then hon. members could ascertain the opimiuns of the most intelligent of their constituents on the subject. Phe Report is a little cumbersome, and there is room lor # youd deal otf op- petition to it, especially m reference to this machine, wich istodothe wek of fifty men—these fitty men would be thrown vat of emplvywent, and pesuaps the work performed by thie muchine would not be at all suitable for our roads. | bave paid a good deal of atten- tion to the art of road waking, and my impression is that we have stone on the ftsiand periectly suctable to make the roads as efficient ss there is any necessity for. It is a falacy to suppose that it is necessary wo break the atone ip smal] pieces to make roads,the lurger the surface of the stone, the greater power it will take to eink it in the ground, and } think if we used larger stones, with sina) ones to fill up the spaces between them, we should have better roads.

Batversron, Reporter.

Mr. MacNaitt. believed thata board of Works was re- quired, as, under the present system, the labor and money employed in the road service were olten very unwisely ex- pended, and considered that the system of accepting la hor instead of money, for the road service, should be dis pensed with.

Mr. biuowee considered that a Board of Works would be an advan age, for it was obvious that much m: Dey Was unwisely expended on our public werks; but was unable tu perceive why an Executive Ccounceitior siould be upon the Board. ili judgement wight be very goud on state ma‘ters, while misht know very little about the duties which would devolve upon a Beard of Publ.c Works; but he would not object to the mej rity of the Bourd being supporters of the Government. ”

Mr. McLii.an was ol opinmicn that the report under con sideration ought not to be conmidcred us & party political one, and thought it wus wouili youl beiny cunside red upon ibe merits.

Mr. G. Srnciain said it was patent to every one that betier information was required trom Bome quarter, belore we can have value for the money «Xpended on our pub ic woeks, and upon pone more 8) than our rads. But whether a Board of Works wi able to furnish thir kpow ledge, was anoiber question. Lt cer taruly wes known to wl] who considered the subject, that sume harder ma terial was required to be used u. on our roads than is now used upon them. The bon. wember tor Georgetown ret commended that large stonee slitid be used, and said t- was not nececiary to break them up into small pi-ces; bat from his (Mr. Sinclar) experience, he would ap prove of making the roads ws hard aud smoot! as possible, tuking special cure to luve tlhe water kept from souki: y through them, and belived i! more eare was taken tu see that this was dune, the roads would beeome much more solid than they now are, and suyggesyed that « udiform

jlon. Mr. How1an was of opinion that an alteration was required, fur the present eysteam had not given sative faction; Dor was it reas nable to suppose thut any wan, for the sum of ten pounds a year, would, even if vom pe- tent, be found, wiiing to devote that time to the service m+ @ y for that eurervison of the roadg in his disirict. a d tv ensure the puble good roads.

A lengthy discussion followed, in which hon. members generally approvedof the prive:le contained in the Re- port. The expense of having the stones broken by ma- chinery was also considered, und the debute brougt toa close by agreeing to u resolution, submirted by Mr. P.

Monpay, April 6. Morning Session. SEED GRAIN SOCTESTES,

The hon. Atturney General, from the Special Committee appointed to report on Private Bills, and to whom wag re- terred the Bil to incorporate Socities for the sale and dis- ribution ol Seed Grain on credit, to examine the same and report thereon, presented to the House a report of suid Committee, which was agreed to by the Ifouse.

The Bill to incorporate Socteties for the sale and dis- tribution of Seed Grain on credit, was then read a second time

The House resolved itself into a Committee of the whole, to take into consideration the said Bill.

Mr MeNeill in the Chair.

The first clause was read and agreed to.

The next clause was then read.

Mr. AgSENAULT.—Some years ago the people who have |

formed these sucieties were obliged to go fifteen or twenty wiles for seed vats, and even then they had to give a bustiel a du alt in the fail for every bushel of seed gruin they received in the spring. Piis was too heavy to bear, al therefore they formed themselves into ciubs, and each die 4a Del contributed a certain quantily of grain, whieh was kept in a fur the use of the Souciety From this store each member was supplied on credit, ac- cording to lis need, and thereby got bis grain at a reason-

clause was read. Mr. Ars {

{ It is « bard case that a creditor can pounce upon a poor man who owes biuw a few shillings, aod take away the seed yrain whicti he has saved for the purpose of sowing.

Mr. Hewarr.—By this claose all the members of a so- Ciety mig!.t become jrable tor one man’s debt, whieh would be unjust, and would be the means of breaking up the So sietv. Tbe members would be placed in a safer position if this part were struck vat of the Bill.

Mr. P. Sixciair.—I think it would be right to set limits to the share a manis allowed to hold, for if the clause is allowed to stand aa it is, the whole Society mizht be bable for one man’s debts.

Mr. Axsenautt.—1 think the clause might be construct- ed su as to cause a man to be liable for his own debts only, and to prevent & creditor from seizing upon the quantity belonging to those who do not owe him.

Mr. Green. —TLhis clause may be the means of breaking |

up the institution, it allowed to stand us it is.

Che clause was then amended so as to prevent & mem- ber’s share being taken for another's dele.

Hon. Leaver or tHe Government —I think the quan- tity deposited by each shareholder should bo limited to twenty bushels

Mr. Prowse —This Bill will open a door for a great deal of swindling ; for it is likely that societies wil! be com pos d of indepen lent farmers, who have abundance of grain, apd who will fix their own price upon it, which their poorer neighbors cannot give. Besides this, poor people may D by the Society, and thas, the very class which we wish to hema. will receive no advantages trom it. A man may have all his seed gram taken from him if bis debts are not paid, while his richer neighbor might have a large quantity of grain invested im that concern, ip an under- hand way

Mr P. Sinciars.—I do not think the arguments just

urged against these societies will stand tie test of reason. |

for no wealthy wan would wish to have a share, as the quantity of gram to be dey sited by a single individual will net exceed twenty be vels It would be unreason- able to incorporate toes ocieties to aid the poor man, an. then to allow biw be imposed upou by his rich neighbors. :

Mr. Prowse.— principle of protecting a man’s seed grain is good, why nut exteud4t to every man in the Island? Why wot prevent the Sheriff from seizing eced grain for debt in all cases? If the principle is good in side the Society, it is good outside of it. If it is rightt protect an individual m this manner in the Society, it is right to protect every individual tarmer inthe game way

Mr. Arsenavir —These Sccieties may be formed througbout the Island, and thus all poor farmers may de rive benefit from them. [tis @ hard case if a poor man cannot keep twenty bushels of seed grain for seed witbou! having it snatched from bim by his creditor. If the poor man’s share in the society exceeds that quantity, the cred itor can take it frow him for debt.

Mr. Owen —Suppose that a poor man takes his seed | from the Society ‘0 his farm for the purpose of using it, |

can it be seized by his creditor then ?

Hon. Mr. Henvens N.—L presume that ao bon. mea er will oppose auything that wi!l have .a tendency te trengtiven the hand of the poor man in securing sees vrain, so that he may be ‘ess dependent when pric:- rise The object of this Bill is to give him a power and a right to preserve a certain quantity of grain for seed ; but be should be prevented from abusing that power The clause relating to this right should be constructed so as best to secure its objct, and no more.
