Mr. ADDEELET said the hon. member who bad last

lesielskere, mad where that legislature hod, much to its
booor, blotted a tau out the inh tbitants to provide far ru•
odir, ad Imposed • Sao es every permit who would sot
✓od his ehild to school, hod much more roma to loth for a
esperate vote. Then would be nu difficulty in doing whet
the soh& lord asked, so ter as the oftce of toe Committee of
Council on Educator' wee concerned. but the noble lord's
object might be more sadly strained, if he wished to get in-
formation about the tiler:button of the parliamentary
putt, or to give Sewell members an opportunity
of bringing the state of education Is Beetles
uedor the attention of the house. The noble lid
Morel!, or soy other tern senktive of Scotland, could give
aeries af • discarsioa on the subject whenever they thought
pen*, ; and any resolution or Lill they might propose would
be duly coseidered. But the tendency of e separate vote
would be to introduce a diversity of cyst. between Scot-
land and England, which was very mdearable. The heti-
tor's tax in Scettend, by which all landowners of lOW. a
year were obliged to pay towards the support of parochial
wheels, being very hadequate fir prairie requuemesta,
was rather to be ormaidered as an endowment, and the a hurl
system in Scotland, se is Xagleed, mainly ratted on velum-
tary contribetioon sided by the parliamentary grant. If
the noble lord bad any pion in view, It would probably be
SP
Imitable for England as for Scotimel. Some of the other

Mr. BUCHANAN said be understood the right hoe. gem
Ileum to sty that there would be no practical difficulty in
separating the Scotch from the Ecgliab vote. He thought It
' would have been muck better if the tight bon. g,ntleroaa hod
