1 quite agree with the learned Doctor Jeukins

that the late Goverumest completely crippled the Free

Education Act.

But if there 1s any fault in the Draft Address, he is partly to blame for it, as he was ove of

the Committee who prepared it, therefore, he shou'd not buve made sueb an ousiaught upon the Government,

oo account of this paragraph relating to Education.

L

trust that he will modify some of the remarks he has

made.

Dr. Jexxins.—I will begin with the end of the hon.

Attorney Geueral’s speech.

Although I was one of the

Committee appointed to prepare the Dratt Address, |

never agreed with any thing contained in it.

I looked

over @ part of it, and strongly objected to one paragraph which [ afterwards found was struck out, and substituted

by anotber.

As to the Prince of Wales College, | must

coafess that I kuow very littie more about ut, thao | bear out of doors, and I am very much astonished to find that there bas been no Commitiee appointed to investigate the working of it aod all matters connected

with it.

My hon. co!league also said

that the benefits derived from the College were not commensurate with the cost, which we kuow is quite correct. He bas not beco at all inconsistent in bis remarks just made, for he does uot fiud fault with his own work, but with the waut of actiou iv the Govern-

ment. Mr, Prowss —Mr. Chairman.

A good deal of time

bas been consumed ia debating on this subject, but very little information has been given on the working of our

Ejucation system.

‘The Free system as it was firet

introduced has been lauded very highly by some hon.

members, but | think it was very detective,

aud when

the late Government brought in the amendment 1 was in favor of it, because the people did value their privileges, lf the people bad been obliged to contribute a fixed

amount from the time the present system

was igtro-

duced, they would have appreciated it more highly than

they uow do.

Tbe principal inconveuience under the |

Amendwent was in coliecting the mouey trom the people,

for the School-master.

I believe that not one half the

womber of children in the Colony are receiving the benefits which should flow {rom the ree Education Act. The people do oot send their children regu:arly to School, aad the cousequence is, there is almost au tmpossibility or yetting the average atiendauce required by Law. Taoere should be some arrangemeuts made which wou d stimulate both parents and children to take advantage ot the privileges offered them in the Free Schools of tie

Colony. It bas been stated here, that the

Prince ot

Wales College is no better than the old Academy was;

if this is so, let the Governweat pur the College upon a

good basis, so as to eonfer greater benefits upon the community, aud the people will not ofject to any

reasouable sum appropriated for that purpose.
