and in the hands of Members.
'tile remeintler of the night was devoted to the case of
Mr. Seaxersauar, the Methodist Missionary, who was•
driven from itarbadoes by th'e Colonists, during the general
alarm that prevailed in the West Indite. As to the mu-
tieous disposition_of the 'laves, which ha was suspected of
fomenting, Mr. POW E 111 BUXTON, 'WM brought the sub-
ject forward,. endeavoured very absurdly to dealers paral-
lel between the case of Snatwsivay and that of Satiric
at Demerara. Great blame was due certsialy to the de-
struerfou of the Chapel, but it appears the Colonists en-
deavoured to compensate the damage as much as
possible by subscribing to • ebuild it. Mr. Witeor
liogTox expressed his anticipation of the benefits that
would result from the Ministry of the Established
Church,
,which is regarded only with feeling. of respect
and affection. The Sectarian Missionaries were always
viewed , with suspicion and dislike. Hence the scenes
in question. We trust, however, that there is an end of
them now, and that the religious instruction of the tie..
groes in future will be left to the clergy, whose influence
over the colonists will best enable them to dischetge that
important duty.
• We do not remember any instance of the failure of a
legislative measure relatire to the trade of the country
which has excited so general a sensation of regret and sur-
prisess the failure of the Bill for making a railway between
lleiverpool and Manchester.. The circumstances under
this Bill was defeated in the CaniMittoe were of an
extraordinary nature; and we treat, for the honoir and
dignity of Parliament, that as they were without example,
they may constitute no precedent for the futuoe. The
Preamble of the Bill, setting forth the great local and pub-
lic benefits that would result from the new mode of cheap,
speedy, and certain conveyance, was voted
a Committee, consisting of upwards of seventy
after a patient and laborious investigation of mr
months. Yet, when the Committee proceeded ,
details of the Bill, the two enacting clauses,
the Company to construct the ritilWay, and
quisite land, were both rejected, though we I.
