with proper courtesy, in not stating that they were not piepotast
with their Report.
141. e. Cox was surprised at this opposition, for it was contrary to
the Image of ~the Hove to force a Committee to make its Report
betorc it w,.s ready to do so.
Mr. Mircagtt. differed from the lion. Member for St. Mores
with respect to the usage of the House, and stated an instance
wherein he was Chairman of a Committee, in which it was hum.
sibleit could get through the business saloon as the douse wish*
when he was called on for the reasons why the Committee had
not brought *reward their report, and insisted that he should krtb-
with make his report. He mentioned this merely fur the purpom
of showing that the lion. Member for St. Mary's had not correctly
defined the usage of the House. The Honourable Member mud
lie was aware of the serious mums of the measure heave the Com-
mittee. Every possible consideration should he given to it. Ho
was aware that the Hon. Father of the House, whose amistance
was so material to the Committee, had been unfortunately takes
tti ; and he lent aware of the unavoidable absence of Lie. /dais,
whtvhad likewise devoted his attention to this moat momentous
meatiest. For dime reasons the Hon. Member aboubi vote for die
delay which had been rennired. •
Mr. °Rialto' rose in expiation. He thought the Committee
had not treated the House with courtesy, after what had passed the
preceding city.
Mr. IIEATH gave notice that he would move for a Committed to
Inquire into the reasons why the Provost-Marshal had old appoistitil
Deputies in the different districts according to law.
Lie. BILOWY presented his Deficiency Bill, which be stated only
differed from the former Bill in a few points, respecting shivers
being allowed to keep hare*. In order to encourage young turn ns
emigrate to this island, he had introduced a clause to allow melt

on each slave, where estates ware deficient of the number of whites,
which he thought would be a boon to proprietors to send out young
men.—lt was read a first time, and ordered for a second reading on
Tuesday next.
Mr. M Tcu E tr. moved that the Bills laying a duty on wine,
brandy, &c. and on goods and wares imported from the Unites&
States, be referred back to the Committees which brought than in*
lor revision. . . .

A short discussion ensued as to the regularity of this proceeding.
Mr.RENNALLs pointed out that those laws were now consolidated
into one by Act of Parliament, and it would be lomat more conve—
nient if the same method was adopted here.
The motion was agreed to, and the Bills referred back, and more
Members added to the Committee.
Mr. GnioNos rose, and passed a most deserving culogium on
the sermon preaches! that morning in the Cathedral Clitirch,of
Spanish Town by the Lord Bishop, who recummeoded the
melioration of the slave population, but in the prosecution of
winch all will and visionary plans should be carefully atuided.
No language (said the Honourable Member) that he could use
would be adequate to that admirable sermon. He therelbre sholf.tt
move that it be recommended to the House to apply to the Lord
Bishop to allow die same to be printed, and that the Receiver..
General be directed to pay the expense thereof, which was uniud.
piously agreed to.
Mr. 13 utostow afterwards moved to amend his resolution tele.
tive to the Lord Bishop's sermon, viz. ;.
`• Resolved, That the Speaker be requested to convey the wishes
of the House to the Lord Bishop, that be would be pleased to allow
his sermon to be printed," &c.—which was agreed to.
Yesterday, while the House was in Committee on the state of the
island, Mr. Robertson rose to propose a resolution, which tic was
sure would be gratefully received and acceded to by the Committee:
They all knew the great services which Mr. hi'Queen, the
Glusgmr Courier, had voluntarily rendered, for a series of pram
pass, to the West India Colonies, in sucresafully refuting pqd
exposing the calumnies of our enemies in Groat %titian. /10
therefore thought that that House ought to pass a liberal vote Ip
that gentleman, as a mark of their gratitude and esteem, an example
which he hoped would be followed by other West India islands.
He then moved his resolution, which was unsniinoualy agreed to.
Mr. linicrion rose, and moved a reesiution, that the Committee
of Correspondence be instructed to write to the Agent, requestim
bite to adopt measures to get Montego Bay made a warelainsltie
port, under the Free Port Act, similar to Kingston, as it wrjoyd ba
convenient for the Cuba trade. • •
Mr. MITCHELL, in a lengthy speech, stated that it was through`
the manufacturers and merchant. of Glasgow dot the, new law
was adopted, and it was conceived that, by confining the trade to
one port, where all foreigners would thus congregate, some benefit
to trade might ha obtained ; but if it were divided among numeruca
ports, there would not be that variety of goods which would induce
foreigners to resort to the markets, the trade being so small that
there would be no choice of merchandise. This was an 441,,g1-
mental measure, and he thought it would be better that to se esl slit
was likely to succeed before any application should be made to
Government. For his own part he expected that little bindle
would result to the island from it, as a similar measure hat failed
in islands to windward. He did not throw his suggestions end front
any illiberal feeling. , .
Mr. Gala SOW replied in a few words, observing, that if PI 1414
good was to result from this new law, there would be no, objectigtk
to asking to participate in it.
The Resolution was agreed to.
The Chair being resumed, the following Resolution passed swot.
con.
Resolved, That it be recommended to the Douse to direct dig
Reettiver-Goaeral to remit to the agent, out of monies in his rands,
the sum of three thousand pounds sterling, to be paid by him to
James lil'Queen, of the city of Glasgow, free of all deduction. as
testimony of the high sense this House entertains of the valuable
and unsolicitedserinoes he has rendered by his writings to the usual
of justice and the West India colonies, in replying to and leftating
the •innutnerable calumnies of a malignant faction in the Mother,
Country." -r

Mr. Chignon's resolution was also put and carried.

On Wednesday an excellent sermon was preached by the Lied
Bishop, in the Cathedral Church, Spanish Town, when a callmica
was made in behalf of the Diocesan Committee,fer Knixtutilde
Christian knowledge, amounting to 911.
The words of the text were, " The Kingdom of Heaven is like
a grain of mustard seed." ' Ilia Lordship entered into a beirt and
admirable detail of the manner in which mu Saviour and h 4
Apostles adapted themselves to the civil institutions of die vountrini
where they taught. He stated that the greet object of both woe 114
to ilreTtete with flovernmeuts, but to enforce the practice of their
Powerful, convincing, and sublime morel precepts : anti thew-be.
with much ingenuity, applied the weight of these ohiervattons to
the conduct winch the nitro ought to pursue in this colony ; point-
ing out with much pathos the tremendous coneeqqences that mortit
follow 6'0411 any inconsiderate, rash. sod indigested plans of uo-
Prniement among the slave population ; and detailed with acute.
nee, sod moderatiou, highly deserving of prairie. anti s'imring at the
sante Sime a sound and vigorous judgment, the dunce pointed out
in the Epistle to the Corinthians and Ephe,ians, as incmobinitbastik
on the master and slave.
On the whole, the sermon, we trust, will do much good, and had
to the Merit/Us consideration of a sound and national inethed of ill-
strurtion, suitsi to the capacity and improvement of the elate, aild
resulting in the benefit of the tuns..', teLd the pao 416141.
