IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT
ROUSE OF LORDS.—MONDAY, Noy. 29.
rho Loan Caistecueeen took his seat at five o'clock.
SETTLEMENT OF PENSIONERS IN THE
COLONIES.
Lord PANMURE wished to pot a question to the sable
earl °pewit. on a sebjece of which he had gives him notice,
sad before doing so it would be necessary that he should
enter into a brief explanation. It referred to a very marl-
Wass elan of individuals, who had rendered, Ia serious
parts of Use country, important public service—he meat
the body of pensioners belonging to the British army. It
would be in their lordships recollection that in 1843 his
sable and gallant friend, now commanding the army, en-
rolled the pensioners who were neeiviag psalm far
Inas services into a body fit for service under arse.
Is 11147, se beaeficial had their envies beta to the
country, that Earl Grey, then at the Colosial-eflice,
and himself at the War ors, thought it right to extend
that service to the celeste.; and in that year they first
seat pensioners out to New Zealand, who had bees ea-1
trimly useful in the disturbed state of that colony, and
who had proved themselves efficient, not only in render-
ing military service to the crown in the colony, but they
had enabled the authorities in the country to webdraw a
portion of the regular troops. Those pensioners were sent',
out with certain conditions attached to their service—that
they were to have certain accommodation in the okays
houses and land attached, which they were to be allowed
to cultivate. In New Zealand, Australia, and Yea Dee
men's Land, those conditions had been fully canteen.
with. He wished to ask, in conclusion, whether it war tee
that the conditions made with the pensioners sent to UMW
had not yet been fulfilled ; whether it was the inteation
the government to carry out those conditions; or, it they
found them impracticable, whether they were proposed ee
give any compensation to thefts pensioners, so as to NOW
aerate them for having gone out there ?
The Earl of DERBY said that on one point be entirely
concurred with the noble lord, namely, that whatever obli-
gations any former government had entered into with
whatever class of people, the ezisting and all succeed-
ing governments were bound faithfully to carry out;
sad he also agreed with him that there were no per
with whom it was more desirable that the
strictest faith should be °binned than that very elms
to whom his observations applied, namely, discharged
pensioners in the army. (Hear, hear.) Ile entertained,
however, strong doubts whether toe system which
the noble lord adverted to and which had been in
partial operation for the last three or four years, wati likely
to be productive of so much unmixed benefit as the noble
lord expected. The printed conditions said that they
must deo wetly understand that the grant of land
would ectirely depend on there being sufficient
for the purpose, and the want of it would eel
entitle them to make ally claim for eompeesatioa ell
that would he insured to them was a free passage to UMW
Canada, where provisions were cheap and employment
easily obtained. Now as to Toronto, it would appear that,
without ascertaining the facts of the case, 220 pensions
were sent out there, they were led to be'ieve that land
could be provided for them in the vicinity of the town, and
from two to three area was to be allotted to each
pensioner. It appeared, however, that of the Ordnance
reserve, every inch that was available around Toronto
amounted to less than 400 acres, so that it was clearly, at
the eutset, insufficient to provide the minimum allowance
for 220 pensioners. (Hear.) list of those 400 scree, sup-
posing all to be available, no lea than 270 or 280 scree were
actually enact a lease to the corporation of Toronto, and
120 only remained at the disposal of the government. He
knew that there was a dispute between the government and
the corporation of Toronto as to how far the government
had a right to reclaim that lease ; but that ought to have
been settled before the pensioners were sent out from this
country. with the pledge and expectation that they would
be put in possession of from two to three acres of land. A
eessiderahle portion of the time which had since elapsed
had been c insumed in discussi en between the government
and the corporation of Toronto on the subject; and he be-
lieved that within • short time as arrangement had been
proposed by the corporation to the effect that the govern-
ment should permit them to take 100 acres out of the 280
fur a public park, and they would then pay I,OOW. to be
applied to the improvement of the remainder of the wilder-
ness—for such it was—in order that the pensioners might
be settled down more comfortably and satisfactorily,
although upon • smaller portion of land than they
bad at Brat been led to expect. But, again, a further
deduction was to be made by a colonial act passed three Si
four years ago, to which the Ordnance did not pay sufficing&
attention, and by which a power was given to carry a rail-
'• way through the centre of the land in question, occupying
nine acres more, to be selected by the railway company, and '
which selection had only just been made; so that there was
another element of uncertainty rendsriug it impossible to
settle the pensioners on the land in question when they
were sent out. (Hear, hear.) This was the state in which '
her Majesty's government found the matter when they came'
into office, and unless further progress had been made, such'
was the state of affairs at the present moment. The condi-
tions had not been complied with, although the pessiosen
bad been enrolled and called out fos twelve days, end had
properly fulfilled their duties. But when he said the con-
ditions were not fulfilled be was quite ready to admit that
it was the duty of the geessweeest, whatever they might
think of the merits of the wiped bargain, to provide for
the literal fulfilment of the terms of the original mistrial,
or else to make to the penieeen such compensation as they
might be willing to weep (Hear, hear.) There was
another question to whisk the edge lord had not adverted,
namely, as to the policy or whiten of divosing of land is
each • manner. If the hell was to be available for
the purposes of the Women it was necessary to pre-
libit any extensive mane et hisildisags, and that only
cottages of a single
_shay high 'Maki he built. At the
same time, if the lend wee est rephod, it would be ex-
tremely valuable he ; sad yet by the
terms of the err am= ii=sst be let te ems
persons en abort sad teeriaahl• laser, thus rew!ang the
land lees valuable to the Oeihmem, sad he was not sere
that it was the best arrangsment fee the pensioners them-
selves. It was quite clear that they bad a right to claim a
bar for a esture, and two sores or an sere sad a half of
