abet bad questioned the accuracy of a statement tuade by him
in* a forayer evening, of the smallness of the amount of the
rates paid by the applicants fur this Bill, compared with the
amount paid by the whole parish. He had since made par-
ticular inquiry into the subject, and found that the amount
of the rates paid by the parties to this Bill was 3,7421., and
the -hole ansnunt of rates paid in the parish was 84,5001.
Me. F:LLIS said, the uuly question at present for their
consideration wee, whether the atanding orders had beets
complied with? He contended that they had; for as to the
'word , Mcrae/dig, inserted in. the 444 metier, if 'diet .were
lleTt oat the notice would be Gina to be a fair espy of the
former pollees; and he contended, that, as lung as the sue,.
ceedingautices contained every:47l,HW was contained in
ha t Castle*, they were ernlte .-(l.4aigkter
insevisso was mere aurplusige, cull it could not be con-
trailed that the standing orders were nut corep!ied with,
whet) all the notice whish obey enjoined had been given, and
something, further. had been added, of which they were nut
required to fire notice. •
Sir I. N sweorti• amid, the 'lending order* rquired that
Klein/se uetict a shell he ivaertrd in the Newspapers affixed
op the (:beret, and put on the Session-house dome.—
(gear, hear)—Now be begird to call the attention of the
House fp the fief, that the notices did not correspond
with tub other, but the List notice on the chute-11.door, costs
talus a statement that rite Bill le fur increasing the rates;
which the other notices did lint express. This variance, he
contended, rendered the lest notice a mire nullity.
Mr. PRICE supported the motion, and was proceeding'
to emir %Me observations Oil the merits of the Bill, whets
Mr:REN NETT rose to order.
The SPE:AKER said, the Report now under consideration
tetssi'mcrely upon the compliaate with the standing order.,
nod p it touching at all.upon the merits of the Bill, he must
iistP!'sire thS• Attune, in dealing with the Report, to confine,
its attention entirely to tie .subject of the standing orders
att.l to steer clear of the nseri-s of the Bill.
Me. PRICE resumed, and contended that it would be a
great hardship swim the applicants for this Bill, if the
llonse,Pll seld decide that the mere addition of what seas in
Pseif slonecesserv, vitiated the notice.—(Cries of Quer-
fiat ! 7:let/ion!"

thing of which uotiee had not been given, both io Ike News-
implies ssd on the doors of the ChArch and Session-home',
limo the otijection would stand., but he theroght the Muer-
siad .4' any thin: in a notice which was not contained la
the Bill, bring mere surplusage, could nut operate is vitiate

SW W. HE rHPAPICNY said a few words, which the
rob* in the House rendered in rndihle in Dee gallery; but
we .11.1•144111.1 him to lie opposed to the motion.,
Mr. C. W. WYNN said, if Ilse word " increasing" were
neeeedry to rover any -part of the Bill, then the notices in:
which' it was omitted; would be defectise s but if it were.
nut nreessnity, it appeared to him nut at all to affect the au-
sicelis 'Melt it might he interred.
The SPEIE ER said the question was, whether a vari-
ance in the optic's, by the' insertion of what amounted to
mint sueplusagc, MINCI6IIt ell Villa!! a notice. Its hie
opinicire it watt not Dist as. it 'was a question the decision of
