I feel, Mr. was conducive to the object of laying before the House the Speaker, great pleasure in resisting the motion, because I reasons which had influenced the Lmperial Government in believe, as I said before, that it arises from factious motives ; refusing the loyal ullowance to the Bills in question. | Mr. HAVILAND would, in that case, move for a Com-;Government may be contained in the Despatch, hope to mittee to prepare an Address to His Uxcellency the Lieut. ‘gratify private feelings by creating the impression throughout Governor, requesting that His Excellency would be pleased’ the couutry that such is the fact. to furnish the House with a copy of the entire Despatch.

With respect to the allasion of the hon. member as to ment—a system which was to operate as a breakwater between the people and Her Majesty's Government. No doubt the Government may rely on the fact that they have a majority, but the side that is uppermost to-day may be down to-morrow, and the majority have no right to ride rough-shod over the minority. What is the presumption from the opposition of the Government party in this House to the motion for a Committee to prepare an Address? Why not allow the refusal to come from the Lieut. Governor himself? I trust, Sir, that there will be found sufficient good sense in the House to sink all party feeling on a question of this nature, and to make common cause in asking for that which we are entilled to receive. Hon. Mr. MOONEY thought there were before the House all the documents required. ‘There was no trace in the Journals to shew that when the Opposition were in power they yielded to the minority of the day. There was no desire on the part of the Government to withhold any information of use to the House. As far as he was personally concerned, he thought there was enough to shew the under-current which was at work against the people of the Colony. Mr. DOUSE referred to the statements of the Hon. Col. Secretary merely to shew how ignorant that gentleman was of the mode of doing business at the Colonial Office. There every public Despatch is printed in full, and is considered public property. No member, desirous of doing his duty to his country, can refuse his support to the motion, Tle spoke thus plainly in order that his sentiments and those of his colleague’s on this question might go forth to their constituents, Hon. Mr. WHELAN.—Mr. Speaker, it is my mtention to vote against the motion if it shall be pressed to a division, We have been told that we should comply with the demands ‘of the minority. Most puissant minority! This question ‘isto be made a trial of strength between the Government vand its opponents. This is a legitimate inference from the | ‘! unusual numbers of the minority in their places to-night, \‘They ask for the Despatch, not beeause they want it, not ‘that they believe the portion not communicated would be of ‘the slightest service to them, but solely that they may ‘endeavour to wrest the reivs of power from the present ‘Government. ‘The hon. member who had moved the reselu- ‘tion had complained of suffering from a cold. In that com- ‘plaint, I sympathise with him, but his malady had not | prevented his dilating on the liberties of the people aud | deprecating the action of party feeling. Sir, did that hon, ‘member sik party feeling himsclf? Did not his very ‘notion tend to provoke a discussion which would naturally | vive rise to party feeling? I conceive it to be an essential ‘principle of Government, that the Lieut. Governor and his ‘Council are the sole judges of what should be communicated ‘to this House, to which the Couucil are responsible for the ‘exercise of a proper discretion. If, Sir, 1 were as uncon- ‘neeted with the Government as any other member of this | Louse, L would, on this question, support the course pursued ‘by the Government in withholding what they deemed it ‘uunecessary to communicate, The hon. member has de- ‘claimed about his and his party’s regard for the liberties of ‘the people, but the votes recorded on many pages of the ‘Journals will afford conclusive indications of the different | opinions and views of the party at present in power and of ‘their opponents, LT haye no fear but that justice will be done to my conduct in voting 2s 1 shall, when i know that tho object of the motion is not to obtain information, but to take advaptage of this opportunity to place the Government in a false position, in the absence of sowe of its supporters, while ‘the opposition are in full feather, Mr. HAVILAND denied that he had brought forward ‘his motion from any factious motives.
