Mr. LOWE said a very good rule had been laid down, that we ought to abstain from legislating for the colonies on any matter on which they were competent to legis late for themselves. That was a very wise rule, and the converse was equally true. Whilst the Imperial Go vernment ought to refrain from legislating on subjects within the jurisdiction of the colonial assemblies, they ought to refrain from legislating on subjects within the jurisdiction of the Imperial Government. This bill re quired Parliament to legislate upon a vast number of subjects under the cognisance of the colonial legislature, and permitted the colonial legislature to lay down laws on subjects of imperial consequence. (Hear, hear.) A measure more vicious in principle could not be proposed. A clear line of distinction had been drawn between local powers and the powers of Parliament, and that line ought not to be departed from. Of all the bills that ever had been laid before Parliament this appeared 'to him to be the most strange and absurd. The legis lative council at Port Philip was created by an im perial act of 1850. Two-thirds of the members were elected and one-third were nominees. Power was given to them to make laws subject to two limitations—they were not to he allowed to pass laws repugnant to the laws of England, nor to interfere with the management of the Crown land of the revenue derived therefrom. But the preamble of this bill violated the powers annexed to the colonial legislature, for it contained provisions repugnant to our acts of Parliament, and also dealt with the waste lands in the colony. (Hear.) This bill violated the or ganic law of its creation, and was in its inception null and void. It recited that, " Whereas it is not competent to her Majesty to assent to the reserve bill without the authority of Parliament, and whereas it is expedient her Majesty should assent to it, Parliament will empower her Majesty so to assent." Now he submitted to the house that the bill could not pass in its present shape. The bill annexed in the schedule had never been as sented to by the colonial Legislature at all. The noble lord, after striking out seven clauses, said it was expe dient that her Majesty should sanction the bill. Now it was possible to pass this act as an original act, but it was impossible to say that two parties had assented to it. It would be necessary for the noble lord to alter the title, the preamble, and the operative clause. But he would advise the noble lord not to run the risk of raising so vast a difficulty, and he, was satisfied that any lawyer looking at this bill, the object of which was to re gulate the destinies of the noblest colony belonging to the British Crown, would pronounce it altogether null and void. (Hear, hear.) Another objection to the bill was, that the schedule, though a part of it, would not be law as soon as the bill received the royal assent, but would require to be afterwards specially assented to by the Queen. So much for the form and structure of the act, foe the provisions of which the house would, if it adopted it, be responsible. Was the house prepared to assent to the grant of 50,0001. or 10,0001. for public worship, which was a part of that boundless prodigality and extravagance by which the colony of Victoria had been reduced to ruin ? He objected to the house being dragged into dealing with these matters which it had delegated to the colonial legislature, and being made responsible for such a payment. How satis factorily all such powers might be exercised had been proved in the case of Van Diemen's Land. Why was the house to be insulted by having thrown before it a bill with such a clause as the 43d, which enacted, that "sub ject to the provisions of this act, and notwithstanding any act of Parliament in force to the contrary, it shall be lawful" to impose and levy duties and customs ? How long did they expect that our colonial empire would en dure if colonial legislatures were encouraged to deal ehus with the acts of the Imperial Legislature ? He did not speak upon a point of mere dignity, for these questions involved the permanence of the connection between the mother country and the colonies. The colonists had power to legislate for themselves, but did not choose to do so, because they wished to deal with imperial matters beyond their powers. If they wanted an extension of powers they ought to have sought it by petitioning the Imperial Legislature, and not by passing acts in defiance of those of the Imperial Legislature and then presenting to the house the way in which it should assent to them. Annexed to the schedule was a civil list of 112,0001. The colony contained 300,000 inhabitants, and in 1849, its revenue amounted to 130,0001. This civil list was adopted in 1853, at a time when the colony was at the acme of prosperity—when everything at Victoria, ex cept money, was of enormous value, and the legisla ture had got into a most frantic and foolish state of .ex citement. In 1853 the revenue amounted to 2,679,0001.; the expenditure to 3,564,8581., leaving a deficit of 1,085,8581. It was, then, with dreams more golden than those of Sir Epicure Mammon, floating before them, that the legislature adopted this civil list. The estimates for the year 1854 were :—Ways' and means, 3,016,2831.; expenditure, 4,801,2921.; deficit, 1 ,7 15 , 1091 . This state of things alarmed even the legislature of Vic toria. They passed a resolution that the expenditure must be diminished e and imposed additional taxes to the amount of 270,0001. or 300,0001., which reduced tee de ficit to about a million and a half. In the meantime, the Government set to work to retrench, and reduced the estimates (which were afterwards still further re duced by the -legislature) by 1,108,0001.—a thing unpa ralleled in the history of human absurdity and folly., They cut down the salary of the Speaker from 1,5091. to 1,0001. a-year, and that of the Colonial Treasurer from 1,5001. to 1,2001.; but all those which wore in this sche dule, including a salary of 75,000/. to the governor (10,0007. for salary and 5,0001, for &c.), remained in tact. The colonial legislature had reduced its esti mates by one million out of three, and yet the noble lord asked the house, by way of carrying out its inten tions, and in deference to the principle of letting the colonies do what they liked, to pass this sum in its in tegrity. (Hear.) It was impossible ; and were he not used to colonial questions, he could not believe that the noble lord would, after what he had stated, persevere in much a request. The noble lord ought to send back the bill to the Colonial Legislature ; ought to introduce into the house a hill giving to that legislature any increased powers which it was thought desirable it should possess; end, to avoid delay, oughtlo send out to the Governor- General of the Australian colonies an act empowering him, on behalf of her Majesty, to assent to any bill on this subject which the Legislature of Victoria might nass, provided it did not exceed the powers given by the Imperial Legislature. (Hear.) Mr. BALL supported the bill, and expressed surprise that Mr. Lowe should oppose - a measure having for its object to give validity to the proceedings of the Victoria Legislature. Sir J. PAKINGTON said he had heard nothing to induce him to vote against the second reading of tell. He looked on these two bills as the complement of an arrangement entered into in 1852 by the Govern ment of Lord Derby, for the purpose of meeting the ex press wishes of the colonists on subjects in which they took a deep interest ; and he could 'not help thinking that should they be rejected, except on very strong and sufficient grounds, something like gi:eat dissatisfaction would be felt by the colonists. He believed that g-n -tlemen connected with the colonies of Australia, now in London, were decidedly favourable to the passing of these billet The noble lord the Secretary for the Co lonies bad bad a deputation of those gentlemen ; and he Sir J. Paki-ngton had also bad the honour of receiving a deputation. But a gentleman connected with the co lony of Victoria bad waited on him some time ago and pointed out the objections which he entertained to this bill. From all that he could gather from that gentleman, his objections were only three. The first objection was to the terms and form in which the bill was drawn ; the second turned on the high qualification of the two coun cils ; and the third related to the high civil list reserved in this bill for the colony of victoria. With respect to the qualifications for the members of the council and the assembly and to the civil list, these were exclusively co lonial questions, which should not be altered or deviated from, but assented to as proposed by the colony. The only serious objection, then, which he (Sir J. Peking ton) could entertain to thesie bills was the form in which they had been drawn. He could not say that the civil list for Victoria was not very light, and, possibly, even extravagant. Hon. members referred to 50,0001. for public weeks, but that was the last part of the civil list that should be objected to. He (Sir J. Pakington) was glad to see that that part of the civil last had been passed by a large majority in the colony. The hon. member for Kidderminster stated that ithe civil list amounted to 112,0001., whereas in the year 1849.50 the whole revenue of the colony was only 113,0001. This was not so much a proof of an extravagant civil list as it was an illustration of the extraordinary progress made by the colony in that time. In 1834, the present Lord Aberdeen, as Secretary of State for the Colonies, was applied to by some bold adventurers, and asked if they might found a colony at Port Philip, and his answer was that it was not the policy of England to extend her colonies, and he re fused his assent. In the following year Lord Glenelg was applied to by these adventurers, and he likewise refused. (No, he assented.) Well, at last the request was granted, and happily these bold adventurers were allowed to esta blish the colony, and now, after twenty years, the house was discussing the question whether or not they should have a civil list of 112,0001. per annum. That was a proof of the extraordinary development of this colony (Hear, bear.) *Should the house take on itself to decide the civil list, it would adopt a very irritating and unwise Course. He understood the hon. member for Kidderminster to say that in re-enacting these acts passed by the colonial legislature, Parliament should not allow this civil list ; but the course taken by the Government was wiser—not to interfere with the act, except as to that part of it which interfered with the prerogative of the Cro*n. The main objects of th ese bills were two, to give to the colonies the manageme nt of their own waste lands, and to confer on them an improved constitution, The hon. consisting of two chambers instead of ne member for Kidderminster bad himself recorded his vote in favour of two chambers, and he moved fore a c_om . ment of waste lands in mittee of inquiry into the man the colony. There was a deoclNaraeagtveiosnoauntdh iv a r a er es on in str B n s e t e , adopted by the legislature the prayer of which Lordf Grey re n fu n s d ed r , e a m n o d n the new s legislature repeated that declaration and sent it home. The Government o . f Lord- Derby considered it their duty th t e o give their attention to also felt it their duty these representations, and to assent to the prayer of the y legislature of New South Wales. Th e y conceded the dou ble chamber in the form i nwbich it was asked. The hon. member for Kidder iinster had on a former occasion said that he (Sir J. Pakington) had th en g iven his consent to the proposi tion respecting the waste lands as a bribe to induce the colonists to accep t a nominated c h amber, but he could assure the hon. member he had had leo such motive. Fl . upper e did not deny that his opinion was in I nated in preference to an elective u „ your of a noun Hated charm thought that if men of property, ability, and sta: im r„, e ,,r co ntent and willing to accept seats for life in the .7".c e chamber, they would form a council as nearly as ft9N, • Bible approaching to our House of Lords. •He also I sisted exclusively of gentlemen who were large holders thought that with an elective upper chamber greater these waste lands. He knew that so strong a feeling tv greater risk of collision between the two chambers would rising up in the colony on this question that belieunle be run, a n d th a t it would be more difficult to carry on i change was Made he did not hesitate to express his the husieess of legislation with a nominated than with that it must end in bloodshed and civil war.

The act did not give the power of making the new council to the then exist ing legislature, but it empowered .the then legislative council to pass a new electoral act for the new council. To that circumstance he traced the evils with which they would have to deal on that night. He (Mr. Lowe) was, as he had already said, the person who recommended that those squatters should have representatives ; but he thought, at the same time, that if they got three mem bers out of 36 representatives, they would he adequately represented ; whereas the legislative council gave them eight members. The rest of the representation was con ceived in the same spirit, and such an enormous pre ponderance was given to the pastoral districts that, it was quite clear they were completely paramount in the legislature.' (Hear.) The legislature which had created the council agreed to what was called a petition and remonstrance, which was sent to the Home Governmen t, and in it they said that, in order that her Majesty's Government might have no excuse for a continuation of abuses they were prepared to surrender the whole of the revenue, territorial and 'general, on the establish went of a courseil similar to that of Canada. The word " Canada" in that document was made the groundwork for fixing upon them this constitution, but.several favou of th e g entlemen who voted for the proposition were in t of an electoral upper chamber.

The council, appointed a committee • • having been elected, • in the year 1853 to consider this question of a constitution, and on the 28th of July they presented a report, which was laid before the house in a blue book. The act of establishing a constitution passed in face of numerous petitions against it, agreed to at public meetings. All the elections, with but a single exception or so, were in favour of the elec tive council. Sir William Denison's answer to the ad dress presented by the colonists for a dissolution of the c ouncil shortly after his arrival, clearly-showed that he regarded the public opinion of the colony as being decid edly adverse to the bill, and in favour of the elective principle.
