Que of the reasone they advance is, that because the property is in the pronunciation given to them (laughter) for instead of pronouncing them with that soft accent with which they should be pronounced, they always use the hard, sharp Eoglist pronunciation. As to the Gaelic, we never hear a word of it. If we go to the other side of this building, wlere all the big volumes are kept, we will find among them a good many in French, but none in Gaelic.

They can get as much insurance as they like, and, therefore, the build- ings might be converted into an elegant edifice for In- dustrial Exhibitions for the whole Island. For these reasons we should keep it insured, and therefore I will press my motion. Hon. Leaver or tuk Gevernwent.—I am quite pleased and delighted to heer the Hou Lender of the Opposition talk on this matter, for he gives us such a history of the pas’, and would make us believe thas these Barracks could be looked after for nothing. If a Ser- geunt were appointed to the offive of Keeper, he would require an extra drill sergeant, and [ am one of those who do not think these men should be taken from their regular employment to loos after the Barracks. f£ thiok the Government had better pay an officer. and have him under their own contro! ; but these Militia officers are on duty through the country, and consequent- ty could not properly look after the Barracks. If the Drill Sergeants are not required for drilling the militia, their serv.ces are not wanted at all. It a Drill Ser- gevat were appointed to the office of Keepe, there would not. on the whole, be a saving of ten pound , for other persous would be required a8 ass s'ants to herp things ciean and in order. One of the Sergeants thouzht about looking after tbe Barrackx, but then he said that the duties of the office would intertere with bis oceupation, antif he gave up the latter aitogether, he might be thrown out ot employment if the buiidings Were soon required. either tor the troops or for any other purpose. \ great cry has be-n made by the Oppusition about the present Keepers going out 10 fish, as if a person should not be even allowed to go out for provisions; if be did go outside Brackley Point and in agaio, there waa no harm in that. Wherever military men are stationed a luose crowd gathers at times who are often guilty of bad >) duct aii for that reaso , among others, [ think the Barracks shoud be placed iv the care of a civilian. The present Keeper was appointed to the office merely be- cause he was a fit and respectalle person to take care of the buildinga, oue who would not allow them to be made a thoroughfare for loose persons. There has been no comp'aints lodged agai .st him, and he bas given satis- faction in his management of the buildings ; therefore, [ do not see why the Opposition should be so hard upon him. Mr. McNuitt.—I do not eare about voting money for these Barracks, but as they coutain a good deal of valuable property which might be destroyed or carried away by evil disposed persons if it is not placed uader the care of a Keeper. I wi!l support the resolution. As the Hon. Leader cf the Opposiion has tried to justify the building of the Barracks, [ will makea few remarks on the subject, and show why certain individuals offered [am sorry to mention the aame of a gentleman who is no more, for L do not like to bring in the name of a person who can- not reply. The hon member (Mr. H.) has tried to prove that the troops were broug'it to this Colony on account of the doings of the League, but I can prove that they were brought here to serve the selfish ends of the Com federate party in the ranks of the late Government. I took the late Mr. Welan’s paper for a number of yee before there were any signs of a disturbance, and | can chow that, by his writings, he enccuraged the formation of an association of this kind. And not only did Mr. Whelan do sc, but a Colonial Secretary, appointed by the late Government, did the same. Mr. Whelan asid that if a few poor devils resisted the law they would be put down, but if the whole body of the tenan'ry resisted in @ mass, something would be done, and the Land Ques- tion would be settled. The editors of both the Islander and Examiner weret ben strong Confederates, and ad- voeated these measures before the people thought of uniting for the purpose of obtaining free land at a reason- able cost. But whenever these two editors saw that the’ Tenant League declared against Confederation, they opeued fire upon the as-ociation at once, and said that the troops mus: be brought heie for the purpose of eup- pressing it. The late cditor of the Examiner prophe- 'si-d thar an associstion would be formed, but when he Ordered, That Mr. Brecken do carry the said Bill to. angus ze, for there exunot be any doubt but that, owing| mation. | believe that notwithstanding what the hon. ’ P member for Cavendish has said, that even in the hard 0 the isolation of thse who speak tbat language here, | days of Charles, the Highland Gael wae not forbidd+a to it mast have jo-t among them muc’ of its orig.ual| uss his own language, and time has proved that those purity.
