LEGUSLATIVE GOUACH..

Tuesday, April kth,

rrRNOON session, (Continued.) LUNATIC ASYLUM, Hon. Mr. Munn said that they all felt | gratified at the improvement in the man—| ‘

rement of the Asylum, but it was evi- dent that the bi a new building ceuld be erected at a cost 880.000 to $100,000 he would approve of

ing so in preference to enlarging the old

ene. Patching up old buildings was ex- | nsive, and was not satisfactory. He was also of opinion thateven a system of spade

husbendry, where the season was so short,

would not afford sutticient employment to the inmates, with the limited area ef |

nd in connection with the present building.

Lion. Mr. Balderson believed that the favorable report was owing,in some degree to the excellent site of the lt was upon elevated ground with a free cireulation of sea air. It appeared that many 2] plic ations had been refused on the eround ef want of accommodation. Last year an extra effort had been made on necount of perhaps, exaggerated represen- tations of the state of the Asylum, but still, nothing had Leen done but to procure plans. If those plans would entail an ex- | renditure of $150,000 te $200,000, he though it would be wisdom for the Goy- roment to abandon the scheme and en- yur to provide more accommodation |

» old Asylum.

on. Mr. MeEwen was also of opinion | the anticipated cost of.the new build- ing, accordieg to the plans obtained. was more than the country could afford. It would be unwise to commence a building without carefully counting the cost. Still it was evident that increased accommodas | was required, and the Government should | put forth an effort to obtain it. The | Government should move in the matter | either in one direction or the other. If too much were expended upon one publie institution there would be nothing left to | expend upon others which also required | improvement.

Hon. Mr. MeGill said it was gratifying that the management of the Asylum had been such duriog the past year, that the

report would not bring a blush of shame to the countenances of members of the Legislature. He would congratulate the Government in having an efficient officer | at the head of the institution. He be-| lieved an addition to the building could be | wade so as to afford all the accommoda- | tioa required for a few years, and it could | afterwdids be used «as an Asylum for thi ¢. Increased :ccommodation was | urgently required, but the Government Wel » slow it would lmost require an itoqgu ke to move them. Ilo M Walker believed the indict nt Grand Jury was overdrawn. its he had been a member of i Inm nd he was aware th it Mr. Gidley had made repeated applications to G t for improvements, but sd till the Grand Jury j _ -S ent Mr. Cet liey Was : for the state of the institu | Phe institution had very efficient now ; and he believed an addition iid be made to the building to meet | : present emergency ; but as there was |

not sufficient land iu connection with

the new building

Hon. Mr. Laird was much pleased with the policy of the Government as enunciat-

ed by his honor the Leader of the Govs}

nment in this House, that if they could vet the estimated cost of the new building reduced to something like $100,000 they would feel justified in proc -eding with its rection. Although he (Mr. Laird) had poken in favor of an addition to*the old i t he was in favour of a new

if it could be erected at reasonable cost, The Government moved so slowly, < his honorfrom Fort Augustus had said that it might be two or three years before they would get a new building fit for ( eeup ition, but an addition to the present tmilding might be eompleted in a few months. A few years ago when « building for troops was required it was soon erect- ed, and « building would soon rise in this if the Government felt that it was really necessary. He did not agree with his hover from Wood Isiands that on account of the shortness of the season, spade husbandry would not afford em- ployment for the inmates, for this country on account of the rapid vegetation, was

peculiarly adopted to spade husbandry.

The change was an ex- periment, but it was recommended by the Judges, who considered that the busi- ness Of the country would be facilitated by the chap ve, and he (Mr. 8.) was dis- posed to think it would.

Ile believed the people | were better satisfied with the old system of Commissioners’ Courts than with the | present County Courts, and there were fewer appeals from the decision given In lthem. Such a sweeping change had not been asked for, and he did not wish to have it foreed upon his constituents with- ut an opportunity of consulting them. Hlov. Mr. McGill did not think the al- teration to three months would have the effect anticipated with regard to prevent- jing immorality, for x greater number of people would congregate, and they would lremain together for a greater length of As it was they were sometimes | detained for four days, which was a great ‘hardship.

Hlon. Mr. Balderston observed that there was nO change with regard to the | places where the Ceurts were held in

(Jueen’s County, though there were peti. | tions for changes. Le did not know that the County Court Act was any advantage

| to the country. The Small Debt Courts | were less expensive, and were calculated lto meet all the ends of justice, though

there was room for improvement with regard to the appointment of the Com-~- missioners. Ifthe Courts were only to sit quarterly there would be so much to do that. either the Judges would hasten the business through without due eon- sideration, or people would be detained day after day ; but perhaps this would in- duce suitors to come toa settlement. The people of Crapaud had petitioned for a court and he believed their petition was well found ; they had a right toa court ; but the House of Assembiy had not made provision for it, and he supposed it would © useless for this House to suggest an amendment in that respeet.

Hon. Mr Walker said he inferred from the bill that the Judtes wanted to do as little as possible for their money.

Hon. Mr. Strong was not particularly to the County Courts, but still

with their creditors. 100 the creditor was willing to settle with the The old system, if the ap- pointment of the Commissioners had been made non-political, might have answered very well; but the present system was better calculated to remove one of the createst evils in the country, the practice of going into debt. Many people were not satisfied unless they were in debt in all the stores in the neighborhood. This evil was ouly secend to that of the manufac- ture and sale of intoxicating liquors.

| Hon. the President admitted that it was an evil, but it should be remembered that many farmers could not do without leredit. They could only make their pay- | ments in the fall. He did not approve of the change to quarterly Courts, because | more people would congregate, and when 'there would be more suits more time would be taken to settle them. Perhaps they would also be adjudicated upon in a hurried manner. Illiterate persons re- quire time to explain their causes. He had heard a Judge say “if you speak another word I will commit you to Jail,” which was not proper treatment for a poor man. Poor men had often to submit to what they considered unjnst, because they could not incur the expense of ap- pealing to the Supreme Court.

Hon. Mr. McEwen remarked that it was diffientt’*to enict a law to which there would be no objection. He was aware that the people of Crapand desired to have a Court, and considered that they were better entitled to one than Boushaw; but | unless another court were granted he did

with, been mede in the House of Assembly to

adjudicate npon small sums. Hon. the President said the town at Montague Bridge had applied repeatedly for a court, and the people there were entitled to it. A large amount of business was done there, and a large amount of expense was incurred when suits had to be taken to Georgetown. At Murray Harbor there were not more than 20 or 30 cases while there were 400 at Georgetown. He did not think the Judge would complain of the addition to his duties if an additional court were estab. lished at Montague Bridge. He hoped the bill would_ be amended in that re- | spect. 5 | on. Mr. Balderston said that as the | Judge would only take about-three weeks out of the three months to go through the cireuit, he did not see that we would have cause to complain if one or two additional courts were established.

| Hon, Mr. McDonald had been opposed

to the County Court Act from the first, |

| and did not yet see that it was any im. provement upon the old system. Per- haps the quarterly sessions would be an improvement, bat «s for additional eourts this House had no power to establish any.

hear their honors advocating voing back to the Magistrates Courts. it was said that the Courts were a cause of immoralty and if that was the case he was surprised that his colleague (Mr. Strong) should advocate going back to the Magistrates Court. Did he wish to grant a new license to practice immorality ? He was reminded of the old saying, ‘“ Oh, consist- | ency, thou art a jewel.’’ Would the es- |

tablishment ef a Court House at Mon-! tague Bridge advance the cause of

morality ?

| j Hon. the President did not think the | arguments of his honor would apply to the | case.

The following anecdote will be read with interest :-—1!780, January iG, Sir George Nod- ney encountered the Spanish Admiral Lan- gara, olf Cape St. Vincent. The action which continued till two hours after midnight, was well contested, but the victory of the Eng- | lish was complete. Langara’s own ship of eighty guns was taken, and three ships of |

One day, as it is recorded, the captive Spani- ard went out in a boat to Admiral Digby, in whose ship was serving one of the young princes, the same who in after years became King William IV. When Langara first came on board, he was presented in due | form to the English prince, but when the | conference between the chiefs had closed and it Was intimated that Langara desired to return, His Royal Uighness appeared in his charcter of midshipman, and standing before the two admirals as they sat, announced ia the respectful tone becoming an inferior that the boat was ready, The Spaniard surprised | at seeing the son of a monareh acting | as a petty officer, immediately exclaimed, | ‘Well does England deserve her superiority |

reply,a letter from Sir Herbert Taylor, written

by his Majesty’s command, and dated the 24th of March 1835, declared that the anec- dote is correctly stated in every respect.] The late A. T. Stewart, over whose will | an unseemingly squabble is just now taking | place, had a doctor concerning whom the | gossips have a good deal to say. Dr. Marcy | is quite celebrated in his profession and is a brother of General Marcy, equally known to fame. In this professor of the healing | art Stewart had the utmost faith. When | he went to Europe he insisted on. his doctor going with him. Marcy was an ins timate friend of the great dry goods mers chant and was wealthy enough to have given up his profession if he had wished to do so. The millionaire’s faith in the ins falibility of his medical friend was somex | thing sublime, and the services of the phys sician were regarded as so sacred and ins valuable that no money could make a res turn forthem. Stewart left his doctor not a penny by his will, and the latter’s evid- ence a3 a witness in the pending litigation will, therefere; be all the more unimpeach- able. As to the doctor, he probably would not have taken anything if the will had provided for him. lle was abundantly rich and could afiord to dispense with any | pecuniary recognition of his services. Mrs, | Stewart, however, with a keen appreciation | of his services of Dr. Marey, sent him a picture from her husband’s gallary which no money could purchase. A contempor-

OF THE

NONPAREIL CARRIAGE FACT RY

AND

AGRICULTURAL WORKS!

Good Work Triumphant!

TOTWITHSTANDING the Dull Times, ,

the demand for my make of Carriages, | Sleighs, Threshing Machines, Fanners, &c., | in King’s County, has rendered it necessary, in order to supply the rapidly increasing demand, that | should extend my business into that County. Ihave, therefore, at the request of a large number of my friends and patrons, opened a BRANCH FACTORY AT CARDIGAN BRIDGE, which is conducted by a competent mechanic, who served his time in the ** Nonpareil,” and has since worked for several years in the United States—a mechanic who knows his business, and has such an interest in the work as to allow nothing but a faithful job to pass. He and several competent workmen will attend to the wants of the public in that County.

The stock used in the construction of the work will be of the best imported, viz :— American Hickcry, Oak,. Ash, Elm, Bass, Whitewood, etc., etc. The iron will be of the best English refined; and Norway and Swedish iron will be used for the parts re quiring extra strength and durability.

Also, in conhection with the said branch is a PAINTSHOP, which is conducted by a first-class carriage-painter, who will attend to the painting of new and second-hand work for the public.

N. B.—Persons wishing work done in the Carriage, Sleigh, or Farming Implement line, will please call,and they will be treated courteously and fairly deait with. All kinds of REPAIRING, including Mowing Machines, done. Prices Moderate; Terms Easy.
