bended to be given telntive to the measunes of introducing linn
mfiln troops mto the dominiom of Great Britain without the

double, if the Minister would now rise and tell him, whether he ]
o'r his" friendo hld sum : bill in contemplztlcn. ' ]
Lord North said. that he could not with all the attention and i
little abllities he -was master et, see the measure in the light that ss
hundershod several other Gentlemen did; that however, as an
indffiddll member he should not o pose it. He said he had con
fulted seven! perlbns pn whose ju gment he could conside, and
they 11] agreed : hill of indemnity was never pussed but in uses
whne privite actions lay, and damage: might he fought; . that in
hie only two infiancee, which happened ot late year:, the permit

pediment, snd might affect his head; but he was quite easy on
that head, because he could not be yet persuaded that he had ss
afied-improperly or ilkgssally in sdvising the measure. He can
ehtded by nsenn to the consideration of the House : resolution ,
wh'ch he wss w' ing to submit to, and which he hoped, would ]
subfy lllperties. He ned ?" of it, butlil did not seem relished.

Mr. Mzshsm repliet], ! :: resolution was by no means satis
fzctbry, and that : vote of one House of Parliament ought never
nbe fitted to sit ersede the law of the land; beside: it would
be de ittne of the : cenainment of those {acts always necessary to
Isoeflninwhat is or is not the law of the land.
" Lord North lnswered, that if s vote of one House was not sus
ficlent', a-conserence might be held with the other, and the mat—
ter laid before hie Majesty by way ofaddress, by Which means it

would come under the cognizance of every branch of the legis—

Lord Mdnlfleld, who, when he please! (says the Govemor) can
