of the day. ‘The Hon. COL. SECRETARY opposed this motion, by |
day that day three months. He prefaced his amendment by | stating in substance that the whole question referred to by | the petitioners had been fully discussed by that House last | year—that the question had not since assumed any new | features—that its settlement in the way desired was as im- practicable now as then—that hon. members, be felt confident, | had not changed their views in reference to it, and that at that late period of the session the time of the House should not be frittered away in opening a discussion that could not, by any possibility, lead to a beneficial result. : "Mr. COOPER warmly contended for going into Commit- tee on the question, and referred to several despatches of Seere- | taries of State, with a view to skew that the question was not an impracticable one. He was supported by Messrs. Havi- land, Longworth, Douse, Laird, McIntosh, Yo, Lord and | Montgomery—several of these gentlemen, Messrs. Haviland Lord and Douse, stating that though they had no objection | to go into Committee and discuss the question, they did not | intend to vote for Escheat.

The petition gave rise to considerable debate, a large
Ms Whelan,
to do so, did not then or at any time pledge himself to sup- port its prayer. The course he recommended was the ap- pointment of a Committee to report next Session.
Mr. Yeo moved that the hon. member who introduced the petition have leave to withdraw it.
Mr. Whelan moved in amendment that the petition “ be referred to a Special Committee to examine the same, and report thereon next Session.” The question having been put, after considerable discussion, the House divided :

Stewart, to examine and report on the samc—preseuted to the House the second report of the said Committee, which was read and referred to a Com- mittee of the whole House. This report excited a very tedious and protracted discussion — the old question of the Loyalist claims, so prolific of dissension and dispute, being discussed at great length ; but when the discussion terminated, which occupied a very considerable part of two days, the question remained in the same unsettled state in which the | House found it, and the petitioners of Lot 80 were left ‘without any satisfactory solution of their. difficulty. The report of the Commitice will be found in the following day’s 'proceedings. The House resumed in order to receive a | Message from the Legislative Council requesting a conference

The Hon. Mr. Palmer moved that the House do now go into the order of the day.

MEMORIALS AND PETITIONS OF LAND PROPRIETORS. The order of the day for the House to go into Committee
on the further consideration of a despatch from the Colonial |
Minister, together with copies of the Memorials and Peti- tions of certain landed proprietors, relative to the Rent Roll and Tenant Compensation bills, being read—

The House then went into Committee—Mr. McDonald in the chair.
The resolutions submitted by Mr. Whelan on a previous day—( for which see Examiner first page, for May 12, or * Parliamentary Reporter,” under the date of March 28, page 74,) were then taken up and read, but, with the ex- ception of a few short and half apologetic speeches, by Messrs. Palmer, Cooper, Douse and Yeo, there was little or bo opposition offered to the resolutions ; and before the reading of the resolutions was quite gone through with, the minority—-including Mr. Cooper—the pretended sworn enemy of the land proprietors—had quite deserted their places, leaving none but Mr. Yeo behind them—thus shewinge their willingness rather to suffer the people of the Colony to be slandered by the base charges preferred against them in the Memorials and Petitions of the Proprietors, than incur the ill-will of that body by raising their voices in condemnation of the slanders. ‘The division which took place on the re- solutions, which were agreed to as originally submitted, without any amendment, is highly instructive.

charges of the Laud Proprietors against the inhabitants of)
the Colony) :—Hon. Mr. Whelan, Mr. Lord, Mr. Macdonald, Mr. Laird, Hon. Mr. Mooney, McGill. Against the resolutions—Mr. Yeo! Members who shirked the question — Mr. Douse, Mr.

The House shortly after adjourned,

Some unimportant amendments made by the Council to the Estates Tail Bill, were read a first, second and third times, and agreed to.
Hon. Mr. Whelan, from the Committee to whom was referred the petition of certain inhabitants of King’s County, praying for an enactment regulating the use of streams of water between differeat mills on the saine stream, and likewise the right flowage and back-water in relation to mills and mil] dams, to examine and report on the same by Bill or otherwise—presented to the House a Bill relating to the working of mills, which was read the first time ; and its further consideration deferred until next Session, owing to the difficulties which lie in the way of settling so important a question, and the very advanced period of the Session.
