WsQI1'os.—‘Hc had studied the ough . those Reserves as beneficial’ to the people, as they could be‘ do; and sincerel desired tosee them extended to the very utmost limits that a fair terprctstion of the clause in the Grants by w lob the? were made, would‘allo_w of their being carri ; he could see nothing in hose opinions-—not even in that part of them which, with respect to the people, put the most unfavourable and restrictive construction upon Reservations that law could show them to bear ——b which it would not be wise and proper to abi e. We could not be allowed to choose and pick out what we thought most favourable to our intrests in those opiiiicns, and, at the same time, permitted to meet, and refuse to be bound by what they contained that we conceived would militate u inst us. If, for such it pur- pose as that for w iich the grouqd in nestion was required, verniuent coal to e a portion‘ -of the Reserves in which the right to the soil had not been reserved to the Crown, without bcin obliged to pa for it, he would l|0 well please: that they cou d do so; but, believing that they could not, be, for one, was willing that they should pa tbr it. Suppose the (iovernincnt were to to e forcible possession of the ground, would not Mr. Macdonald coniincnco an action against them in the Supreme Court? Certainly he would: and it was also, he thou ht, quite as certain that, if he did, he would in it, Sup so then that an appeal l'roni the Excision of tie Court here were to be made by the Go- vernment to Her Majesty's Privy Council, to whom would the i ucstion there he referred for 1, final decisi’onl o t w otlicers; And, was it not all but it certainty that their opinion would be perfectly in accordance with what had formerly been given on the question, by these authorities? Honorable members who had imposed the urchase of the ground, l'rom Mr. cdcnsld, t rou h a persuasion that the Government had a rig it to take possession of ' ' purpose for which they wanted it, without being bound to allow any considerafiion for it, would, he hoped, on more mature re - ,;,see 13:10 propriety of purchasing it for sum ‘ Mu. More-roostlitv. He thought the subject under discussion involved two questions: First, what was the value of the ground required by the Governmet ! and secondly, would the Government be justified in an attempt to take it without afford- ing the prorictor s reinuneraticn for it? He would say, that if the right to the soil of the Reserve, in this case. were in the rown, and the Reserve were, at the some time, uncultivated, the Govern- merit would have a right to take the site‘ wanted, without allowing any remuneration to the Pro- prietor for it. But, whether the right to the soil were, in such a case, in the Crown or in the Pro- prietor, he would say that. ifthe ground wanted by the Government were a part of any man's farm, even although a part of a Reserve, they would have no right to deprive that man of it without al- lowing him a reasonable compensation. All the circumstances of the case considered, he was, therefore, of opinion that Mr. Macdonald would be entitled to remuneration ; but he also thoti§llt_thst the amount he asked was too much. and that. if he were oflered a much less sum. he would take it. . in Mr. Macdonald had oflered to sell what he had no power to sell. The whole Island was a Reserve, and be (Mr. Mscdonald) did not know but the whole of it mi ht be required for the purpose of carrying on lis cries. Besides’, even nting that he had it right to sell the land, w ioh, however, be (Mr. Laird) was rounded be ad not—he was asking ten times as much for it as it was worth. If he were as liberal as he mi ht be in such a use he would say, “ I csn‘t sol the land; it is all a fishery reservezand I know not w soon it may he wanted by fishermen ;but I will cheerfully ield up possession, to the Government, of what little the require for the erection of a Light House, wit out seeking an remuneration for it." Ms. WIOIITIAN «(id not think that, in such a case, Mr. Inird himself would act in that spirit of liberalit which he would recommend to Mr. Macdonal . The hon. Mr. Colt-s had given a very hit and impartial explanation of both sides of the question; and he (Mr. W. )‘ thought the course recommended by him was t at which the House ought to urstie. Were they to ado t t recommend by those hon. members w 0 opposed the purchase of the round, an action would certainly be institute against the Gov- ernment; and,as certainly, they would be over- thrown in the Court. oo much time had been spent in the discussion already. All that remained to be determined, he thought, was what out should be given for the ground; and the sooner they come to that question the better. HON- tlicSrusxaa.—Nothin that had been ad- vsnced was, in his opinion, o suficient weight to justify an attempt, on the rt of the Govern- ment, to tabs ssion of t e ound in ques- tion without wing Mr. Ms onald a proper remunerltlcl for it. If they made the attempt, they would be led into n law-suit; and would certainly lose it. The Government had sent d9W|1 C0‘|lt|I|lIl0lI0l'I to decide on it site for a Light House: they hsdslso. he understood, enter- 0d "W0 III I W009 with a contractor for the erection Of it, who WI!

'I‘be around in question was a portion of such a Reserve as the last, and he maintained that the Government, in taking canton of it for ii site whereon to erect a Light- ouse, would be taking possession of it for the express pur use for which it had been reserved. The Liiiht- ours was to be erected for the benefit of the tishcrrrien—slthough it was very true that it would be for the benefit of the shipping and the mercantile interests generally iilso—sod they, the fishermen had already bi-en taxed for that Light.

Fully im- pressed with the correctness of tile view of the question, he would conscientiously adhere to it; and. before the Committee rose, he would submit such a Resolution, as would, ifcsrried, be the means of having its legality and propriety fully tested in the Supreme Court of Judicature. Ma. Loirowoiu-ii.—He could not understand how the Hon. Mr. Lord and those other hon. members who coincided in opinion with him, concerning the question in discussion, arrived at the conclusion that a proprietor bad no ri ht to sell a portion of a Reserve of wbic the ee- siiii le was vested in him. Of all such Reserves as t intin question, the right to the soil is in the proprietor; the people it is quite true, had it right, when the pleased to exercise it, to enter upon it for fis ing purposes, but, in no case, could they have any right to the soil. The only right the people had was similar to that enjoyed y fishermen in England, and in Ireland, who were at liberty to spread and dry their nets upon the coasts, to a certain extent from hi h-water mark; but nothing inc He would efy this Govcrmncnt, or any othe Government, to take Rqssiessiim, at their own will, of any part of a servo such as that of Panniure Island‘ All that the Government could do, in the present instance, was to make the best bargain possible with Mr. Macdonald. It was a simple matter if buying and selling between two parties ; and, of the party wishing to buy would not give what the other party persisted in demandin , there could be ii ) bargain concluded. The on y other way, at al events, wool to pass an Act for the appraisement of the ground. When all was consiciered, however, he thought the sum asked by Mr. Macdonald was not too much ; and, if it could not be obtained for less, it would be well to give i - Note.—The discussion, after having been pro- longed for about three hours, was still further retracted for a short time ; when a motion made y Mir.
