THE SWAMPING OF THE LEGISLATIVE COUNCIL.

Atrnoves the public may not be generally aware of it, the Legislative C uncil—when not comp sed of proprietors and their minions, —have ever since—and indeed some time before the advent of Responsible Governme:.t, to which their exer- between

tions mainly yntributed—stood prominently forward them and oppressive legislation. In proof of their attachment to liberal principles, we meed only refer to the event of the her day, when the Government deemed it necessary, for the carry ing out of their bad poliey to swamp the Liberal majority sveae Wy the intreduction of five new members—thuas increasing the number in the upper House to seventeen, and retusing to produce the authority in virtue of which they made To

whose majority there was sufficient to carry it ia spite of all opposition ; but as the Legislative Council plainly saw, as well as every one else who heard the provisions of the Bill read, that it had an obvious tendency to deprive many persons of the privilege of the elective franchise, by imposing restric- tions that could not be easily complied with—they considered it due to the people to give them an opportunity of expressing

opinion upen it, and with that view they ordered the Bill to be printed, and to lie over fur further consideration until next Session. This decison—based as it was upon a constitu- tional right—-made the Government quite furious; they eould not understand that the Council should be allowed to express an opinion of their own, although appointed by their Royal Mistress to ex reise an independent judgment on all questions affecting the legislation of the couutry ; and the upshot was, that the Lieut. Governor—too facile and too ready to listen tu the deceitful representations of his advisers—exercised that power of swomping the Council with which it is said he has but the details of the instruetions received by ilis Excellency he has

Looking agsin at the speech with which His Excellency closed the late Sssion, we cannot divest our minds of the belief that he has been entirely misled by the implicit faith

which he appears to have giver to the representations of his

advisers respecting the second branch of the Legislature. Up had a better claim than anotlir, but all being immeasurably | years 1858 and 1859.

In connection with this subjeect—to which we are giving 4 mete cursory glance for the present—we cannot omit to con- trast the corduet of the Government in 1852 with that of 1860,

when the Legislative Council threw oat a Bill similar in its

Did they address the Queen on the subject, or ask the Lieut. Governor to interfere?) No—the sacred character of the upper branch of the Legislature was preserved from the assaults of violent hands—its independence and freedom of action were fully recognised and respected.

We do not by any means arsue that a contumacious Council,

ra contumacious House of Assembly is above the Imperial law and authority. The one may be controlled by the Royal prerogative—the other by Act of Parliament; but these are ineasares to be resorted to only in cases of extreme necessity— not for the purpose of creating a majority to support the policy of any particular set of officials, under the pretence that the alteration is the result of ‘* restraint’? necessary to punish or neutralise crimes that have never been committed.

The friends and supporters of the Administration will, no doubt, plead that, in accorda.ce with the principles of Rcs- ponsible Government, the head « f the Exceutiye was bound to follow the advice of his Council. If his Excellency is such an admirer of constitutional law as to obey the mandates of his bly hoped that

It is too evident far the public reputation of the parties con- cerned, that the whole thing was predetermined, and the only anticipation which existed was, that the Session would close without affording any pretext at all for what has been done, —so the postponement of the Election Bill was taken up in sheer despair of any other ‘* circumstanee’’ occurring.

‘ANTICIPATING THE ROGUES.”

We have heard, Within the last two or three days, that the above phrase, which was often used in derision of a member | of the late Liberal Government, is about to obtain a somewhat remarkable signification in reference to the conduct of the present Administration in regard to the purchase of Lord Sel- kirk’s estate inthis Island. Rumour says that Mr. Douse is not inclined to relinquish the possession of * his Lordship’s shoes,’’ which he has worn, with so much advantage to bim- self, for many years past—that, in short, he has anticipated the Goverument in the purchase of the Selkirk prop rty ; and is now only waiting advices from England to become its sole owner. Wuether the Government are a party to his secret interference in this matter, remains to be seen ; but the whole If it be true that Mr. Douse is ty become the owner of the Belfast property, we are

Their peuetrating properties stimulate the vital activities of the body, remove the obstructions of its organs, purify the blood, and expe! disease. They purge out the foul humors which | breed and grow distemper, stimulate sluggish or disordered organs into their natural action,and impart a healthy tone with strength to the whole system. Not only do they cure the every-day complaints of every body,

but also formidable and dangerous diseases that have baffled the best of |

human skill, While they produce powerful effects, they are at the

same tine, in Giminished doses, the safest and best physic that can be |

ewployed for children. Being sugar-coated, they are picasaut to take; and being purély vegetable, are free from any risk of harm. Cures have been made which surpass belief were they not substantiated by

men of such exalted posit on and character as to forbid the suspicion of |

uatruth. Many eminent clergymen and physicians bave lent their names to certify to the public the reliability of my remedies, while others have sent me the assurance of their conviction that my preparations coutribute immensely to the relief of my aftiicted, suffering fellow-men.

The Agent is pleased to furnish gratis ay American Almanac, con- taining directions for their use and certificates of their cures, of the ollowing complaints :—

Custiveness, Billious Complaints, Rheumatism, Dropsy, Heartburn, lieadache arising from a fuul stomach, Nausea, Indigestion, Morbid In- action of the Bowels and Pains arising therefrom, Flatulency, Loss of Appetite, all Uleerous and Cutaneous Diseases which require an evacu ant medicine, Serofula or Kings Evil, They also, by purifying the

blood aud stimulating the system, cure many cowplaints which it would |

not be supposed they could reach, such as Deafness, Partial Biindness, Nevralgia and Nervous Irritability, Derangement of the Liver and Kidneys, Gout, and other kindred complaints arisiog from a low state of the body or obstruction of its functions.

Do not be put eff by some unprincipled dpalers with some other pill
