of the expenses to be incurred under it, both by the
public and by private individuals. He also gave notice
that he would to-morrow move for certain returns, in
order that this information might be furnished to the
House.
VANCOUVER'S ISLAND.— THE " COUNT
OUT" OF LAST NIGHT.
Lord LINCOLN gave notice, in consequence of the
House having been counted out yesterday through the
instrumentality and active exertions of persons con-
nected with the Government—(Hear)—but particularly
of one who was specially entrusted by the Government
to muster their forces on all occasions of that kind,
that it was his intention to renew his motion which he
made yesterday with respect to Vancouver's Island as
an amendment to the first motion for going into a Com-
mittee of Supply.
Mr. TUFNELL said he did not know whether the
Noble Lord alluded to him relative to the "count
out;" but he could assure him that ho had done all he
could to keep a House. He was compelled himself to
leave the House shortly before the Noble Lord concluded
his speech through indispositien, but he had given no-
tices to all the members of the Government with respect
to the motion.—(Hear.)
Lord LINCOLN said he bad been assured by an Hon.
Friend of his, who was coming into the House, that if
he had not been shut out he would have made the fortieth
Member, and at the time there was not a member of the
Government present.
Mr. HUME said he believed that his Hon. Friend
(Mr. Tufnell) was utterly unable to remain in the House.
Any one could see from his appearance that he had been
indisposed.—(Hear.)
Lord LINCOLN—I do not allude to the Hon. Gentle-
man but to the Noble Lord the Member for Evesham
(Lord M. Hill).
The ATTORNEY- GENERAL observed that the
Noble Lord was addressing the House for four hours
and a quarter, and that during that time there were very
few Members on the opposite side of the House—(Hear)
—he believed not more than five or six.—(Hear.)
Lord LINCOLN—Lord Marcus Hill whipped out the
House.—(Order, order.)
The ATTORNEY-GENERAL said it was highly
inconvenient to the Government that the House should
have been counted out after the Noble Lord had made
his address—(Hear, hear)—because his Hon. Friend
(Mr. Hawes) was prepared to give what he believed
would have been a very satisfactory answer.--(Hear,
hear.) But the Noble Lord having addressed the Hou-se
so long ought rather to have complained of the real
cause than of the conduct of his Noble Friend.—(Hear.)
Mr. GLADSTONE rose, but was interrupted by
The SPEAKER, who intimated that if any lion.
Gentleman wished to make any observations with re-
spect to what had taken place last night, he had better
wait until the dropped orders had been re-appointed.
The subject then dropped.
FEVER A L COURT.
In reply to Mr. ROEBUCK,
The ATTORNEY-GENERAL was understood to
say that in the Bill which was to be brought forward with
respect to the Palace Court, he intended to introduce a
clause for the abolition of the Peveral Court.
EXEMPTION OF LITERARY SOCIETIES FROM
LOCAL TAXATION.
In reply to Mr. BROWNE,
The ATTORNEY-GENERAL said he had consi-
dered the Bill for simplifying the mode of carrying into
effect the exemption of literary societies and mechanics'
institutions from local taxes; but there were two portions
of it to which he entertained considerable objections.
The first, with respect to the mode prescribed for ad-
justing disputed facts, which he considered would give
rise to considerable litigation; and the second, with re-
spect to the establishment of an office under the Act (as
we understood him), and the payment of fees for regis
tration. He was not prepared to give any pledge on the
part of the Government as to the course they intended
to take in regard to this measure.
Mr. MILNER GIBSON wished to ask the Hon.
Attorney-General whether he objected to the principle
propounded by the societies, and whether the Govern-
ment would undertake to bring in a Bill to effect the
object of the societies without the creation of the new
office.

Mr. BRIGHT said perhaps there might be persons
'waking out for the now office.—(A laugh.) Perhaps
,he Hon. and Learned Gentleman would be willing to in-
troduce the Bill without that clause.
The ATTORNEY-GENERAL said he was quite
prepared to say that, with the exception of matters of
minor detail, he was ready to give his sanction and sup-
port to the pritabiple of the measure without the creation
of the new office.—(Hear.)
CANADA.
Mr. HERRIES said he ventured now to put a
question relating to Canada to the Under Secretary
of State for the Colonies, or the Right Honourable
Gentleman, the President of the Board of Trade. In
order to make his question intelligible he must read a
few passages from the dispatch of Lord Elgin, of the
12th of May, 1848:—" The advantage to the colonies
afforded by ,f means of protecting duties generally,
enabled them to compete with their neighbours in
the markets of the United States."—(So we understood,
but the Hon. Member was rather inaudible). Again, in
the same dispatch—" Connected with the subject of the
free navigation of the St. Lawrence, which the Ame-
ricans are desirous to procure, is a correspond-
ing desire on the part of the Canadian people
to avail themselves of the American home market
whenever it affords superior prices." . . • . " The
prices of wheat and flour in the Eastern States,
entered for home consumption, is often much higher
than the price in Canada." . . • . " When
this happened the Canadian people (said Lord
Elgin continued to say) were prevented from availing
themselves of the American home market by the pro-
tecting duty cf Bs. 4d per bushel on wheat. All these
extracts were intended to recommend to her Majesty that
a treaty should be formed.
Mr. ROEBUCK rose to order—(Hear, hear)—and
was proceeding to state his objection, when
The SPEAKER intimated that the Right Hon. Gen-
tleman was in order.
Mr. BERRIES said the question he had to ask was,
what answer had been given to the representation from
the Canadian Government, transmitted by Lord Elgin
on the 12th May, 1848? He had next to ask what
steps, if any, had been taken to secure the object which
the Canadian Government, through Lord Elgin, had in-
dicated to her Majesty's Government.
Mr. LABOUCHERE said he was able to state ge-
nerally that the Government had had representations
made to them from the North American colonies, of the
great importance it would be to some of these colonies to
have a free trade across the border, with regard to those
articles which constituted the great bulk of the commer-
cial intercourse between the United States and Canada.
His own belief was that a measure of that description
and having that object in view would be advantageous,
not only to British North America, but to the United
States. The Hon. Gentleman (Mr. Herries) was, no
doubt, aware what her Majesty's Government had stated
anytated
' t
in answer to those representations—namely, that
steps that depended on her Majesty's Government.
bo gladly taken to facilitate that object.

lost sight of, and the Government would do everything
in its power to facilitate th© object which was of suchparamount importance, as that of free trade across the
border dividing the two countries.

--Mr.GLADgTONE wibhcd to know whether there
had been any correspondence wi h foreign Powers, in
regard to the effect of the alteration of the law as to the
definition of national vessels, in our commercial treaties
with those Powers.

Mr. LABOUCHERE said a communication was
made to all Foreign Governments of the whole altera-
tion in our law contained in the Navigationßid. There
had been no subsequent communication, made to any
W9reigil Goverment.

Mr. GLADSTONE said we had now a number of
try aties on navigation with different Foreign States, in
which an equality of privilege by national vessels was
stipulated and given on boesides. The eff ct of that
was, under those treaties, to make each State a party to
the recognition of national vessels by the other
State, and that principle had in eff.-ct been
fully recognised. What constituted a British
ship was that three•fourths of her crew should
be British seamen • but the House was going
to change that principle in regard to the build of the
vessel. What he wished to be assured of was, if we
could claim under our treaties, as they stood, that such
vessels when registered as British vessels mould be
entitled to the privileges of our treaties with foreign
states.
Mr. LABOUCHERE said he was sure the Honour-
able Gentleman would excuse him if he declined to answer
questions of legal construction put to him across the
table of the House. Ile could only say, with regard to
the Navigation Bill just passed into a law, that he had
asked the House to deter those alterations for some
months, in order that such questions as this might be
fully considered.
ECCLESIASTICAL COMMISSION BILL.
Mr. HOeiSMAN said, the l louse had not yet received
the amendment to the Ecclesiastical Commission Bill
which had been promised. There had been very distinct
and repeated pledges given to Parliament on the subject
of this measure; and if they were not kept it would be a
great violation of the faith of Parliament. He should
ask the House to express its opinion upon that breach
of faith in the face of the House.
Sir G. GREY thought it was extremely inconvenient
that these questions should be continually put. With
regard to the amendments he had hardly seen them
himself.
Mr. HORSMAN wished to know when the Bill with
the amendments would be delivered to Members?
Sir G. GREY, after consulting with one or two of
the Members around him, said that the Bill with the
amendments had been delivered that morning.
Mr. HORSMAN said that he had not received it.
The dropped orders were then reappointed.
THE " COUNT OUT."
Mr. GLADSTONE, adverting to the " count out" of
the House last night, and the observations of the Noble.
Earl the Member for Falkirk (Lord Lincoln), said that
he felt convinced that his Noble Friend. in what he had.
stated, had no intention to impute to the Goverment
any desire to get rid of the question that he had brought
betere the House last night, but at the same time he
[mad-, confess that it was a most unfortunate occurrence.
—(Laughter.) He regretted the absence of the Hon..
Bsronet the Member for Sunderland, who last night
counted out the House, and also that of the Noble Lord
the Member for Eves-hem, who he must consider was-
instrumental in counting it out. Ha trusted that,
considering the importance of the subject brought under
the consineration of the House by his Noble Friend last
night, the Government would name some day for the
renewal of the debate and concluding the question.
Mr. LABOUCHERE was not able to give the Right
Hon. Gentleman any assurance on the subject in the.
absence of his Noble Friend at the head of the Govern-
ment. He (Mr. Labouchere) regretted as much as the
Right Hon. Gentleman did the untimely end the discus-
sion came to last night—(Great laughter)—as he believed
no time was gained by it. But he must protest against
the doctrine that it was the special duty of the Govern-
ment to keep a House on such suhjects.—(Cheers.)
The Earl of LINCOLN had never said it was.
Mr. LABOUCHERE observed that there were no less
than seven Members of the Government present at the
time the House was counted out.—(Hear, hear.) ne
entirely denied on the part of the Government any ill"
tention to count out the House.—(Hear.)
Mr. TRELAWNY said that he had come down for
the purpose of assisting in making a House, and he must
coniess that he was gieatly astonished at not finding the
Noble Earl the Member for Falkirk in his place.
The Earl of LINCOLN admitted that he was not
present when the House was made in consequence or
be ing detained by a person who had called upon him at
the lest moment. He had never said that it was,
the duty of the Government to take care to make 11.
House.—(Hear, hear.) What he did say was, that an.
attempt was made to prevent'a House being made by'
one of the officials of the Government. Added Le'
which, he had stated that there was only on e
Member of the Government present when thre
House was made. What ho complained of was,
that a Member of that House, and one of the
officials of the Government had endeavoured to pre-
vent the House beMg made, and had also whipped
out the House in order that it might bo counted out.--
(Laughter.) He did not think that any member of the
Cabinet had any wish to do what had been done, but--
[At this moment Lord Marcus Hill entered the
House amid much cheering and great laughter.]:
The Earl of Lincoln said, as the Noble Lord had.
just entered the House, he would repeat his charge—
that it was through his instrumentality that the House
was counted out.

Lord MARCUS HILL said that he had taken no
open measures whatever—(Great laughter)—to bays
the House counted out. An Hon. Member had told
him of his intention to count out the House, and Lie
certainly must confess that he had taken no steps to
dissuade him from it.—(Great laughter.)
The Earl of LINCOLN begged to ask the Noble
Lord whether he had not told an Honourable Member,
previous to the House being made, not to go into the
House, as it was going to be counted.—(Laughter.)
Lord MARCUS HILL observed that he might have
said so, but be did not see how any inference could be
drawn from that, that it was his wish the House should
not bo made.—(Great laughter.)
Mr.SLANEY trusted that in future they would be Wale
to commence important discussions and conclude these,
without the House being counted out. He must confess,
however, that he had seen the House counted out upon fa
more important questions to the people of this country
than that of the grant of Vancouver's Island to the
Hudson's Bay Company.—(Hear, hear.)
Mr. AGLIONBY deplored the House being counted
out last night on such an important subject. It was
unjust, in his opinion, to the Under-Secretary fur Jibe
Colonies.—(Hear, hear.)
Mr. ADDERLEY thought the Hon. Gentleman tho
Secretary for the Colonies would find it to his conve-
nience that the delay had occurred, but the counting
out would certainly have the effect of convincing the
country that neither the House nor the country took any
interest in colonial matters.
Mr. V. SMITH did not think it wise to get
rid of the privilege of counting out, as such an
occurrence as that of last night would induce the country_
to believe that the House took no interest, in colonial
matters, and they would believe what was per-
fectly true. This system then was the onli
way by which constituencies could ascertain
how their representatives were disposed towards
particular questions, and as that would serve as some
guide for their future election, he hoped the privilege
would be continued.

After a few words Mr. S. WORTLEY and Mr. HAWBs;
Mr. HUME said he took a different view of this mat'
ter to those ,of the Honourable Members who
had already spoken upon it.—(Hear, hear.) 1118
opinion was, that no business should be taken 10
the House unless 200 Members were present.—(Hear.
hear.) Not that he approved of the proceedings of last
night, or of the course taken by the Hon. Baronet who
moved that the House be counted, and who seemed to
have no other object in attending his Parliamentary
duties but mooting that question.—(Hear, hear, and
laughter.) If he could have his way he would
1
have a rule Established empowering the clerk
at the table to state that there was not a sufficient num-
ber of Members present to carry on the business of the
House when more than half the Members were agent,
and then there would be a prospect of their securing
the return of men who would attend to the buSiness of
the House, and not come there simply to vote and make
a noise towards the close of a night's proceedings.
The debate was then adjourned till Friday.
MARRIAGES BILL:
On the question for resuming the adjourned debate 011
this Bill,
Mr. NAPIER assured the House that he approached
this question with some degree of hesitation, as it Was
one of difficulty and delicacy. The question had much
agitated the public mind, and he thought it due to the
importance of the subject and the public that it should
be calmly and dispassionately discussed.

FABLES for

the FANCIFUL,

No. I.
THE SPARROW AND THE GOLDFINCH.
One day, while in my garden-chair I sat,
Two plumy people joined in friendly chat.
The facts were these, as far as I coul I see,
A goldfinch perched upon my cherry-tree;
Soon after which, a lowly sparrow came,
'Presuming he'd a right to do the same,
And having neared his neighbour, inch by inch,
" Chip," said the sparrow, " Twittle " stud the finch.
A pause ensued, as oft it does with us,
But soon the sparrow broke the silence thus ;
" I often wonder, sir, indeed I do,
IA by I'm viewed as so much less than you ;
In vain do I endeavour to eng,ge,
I've never been considered worth a cage;
But as for you, wherever you may fly,
Mankind regards you with a curious eye.
Pray what's the reason you are valued so,
Is it your song, or what, I wish to know ?"
" Nay," said the well-dressed goldfinch, " I presume,
'Tis not my song, but my superior plume ; .
'Tis true, my friend, I've learned to sing a little,
But scarcely any more than 'twittle, twittle.'
You may depend, Sir, 'tis the way I'm decked--
Respectable appearance gains respect;
Look at my golden wings, my scarlet cap,
You see I'm quite a gentlemanly chap ;
If you could wear my coat you'd shortly know
To w➢at extent appearances will go."
Here ceased the entertaining conversation,
While I myself supplied.
THE APPLICATIDN.
Since personal appearance goes so far,
I'll more than ever prove what Moses are.
Moses and Son's famed Mart is just the place
To furnish fashions of superior grace ;
The fit of Moses, true to half-an-inch,
Will prove the language of the golden-finch.
Whoever may in sees' dress be decked,
Will meet with honour and with due respect ;
And this assertion nobody will mock,
()n viewiroc Messrs. Moses' summer stock;
And thus conclndes my unassuming fable,
Which I've improved as well as I was able.

DEFERRED ANNUITIE!

By the

)peration of the same princip'es, the

loelety is enabled to

afford to the public a plan of Deferred Annuities far more advanta-
geous than any hitherto offered, whereby an individual, by the con-
tribution of a very small annual, monthly, or weekly saving, may se-
cure either a comfortable provision for himself in advanced age, or,
at his option, a large sum of money, or a policy to his family at his
death ; while by giving to the purchaser, at any time, the power of
borrowing two-thirds of all previous payments, it removes all risk
of forfeiture from inability to continue premiums, besides affording
an ample resource during sickness and want of employment ; and
should the purchaser die before arriving at the stipulated period, two-
thirds of his payments will be returned to his representatives.
The following Table is a specimen of the great and varied advan-
tages which the judicious application of a small saving caa secure
through this Society.

surgical operations, and demands all the prudence, science, and skill
of a master. The art can only be acquired, and that gradually, by
