—( Hear, hear.) The Noble'Lord said that he had hems
charged with having formed a contract with the New Zealand'
Company inconsistent with the treaty of Watonga. He ins
particularly severe on those on this side of the House who ha&
preferred this charge against him ; but that was the very'
charge that had been preferred against him within the!ast fort-
night by the New Zealand Company.—( Hear, hear.)

opposite (Mr. C. Buller). It states that it is impossible to re-

based on the missionary principle, while Lord J. Russell
acted on the colonisation principle. The charge, thaw,

lowa is not preferred by us, but by the Hon. and Learne
Gentleman who sits near the Noble Lord, and with whom

Noble Lord says he is prepared to vote.—( Hear, hear.) Dde.
my Noble Friend (Lord Stanley) wish to act illiberally tower

the company ? His wish was, as the Company had pot:
established a claim to any land,. or at least any offici:l'
quantity of land, to assign to them all he could assign en a °en'
ditional title, subject by other articles to a subsequent proveef
of that title. With my Hon. Friend's impressions he
could ely
no more ; he said to the Company, " I will permit yo,
within certain limits to choose the land you requirosbhia

the condition of a preferable claim being esta•
hereafter," the onus of establishing that claim
thrown on the adverse party, and the right ogle
session being given to this powerful Company justly

towards doing it. The Noble Lord opposite speaks of
et
registration as if it was like that of Yorkshire or Mddle_il !.•_
It is nothing of the sort. It is only to establish a valid title to
the land. But the real question is this—whether you Tel..,
just, after the reference made to engagements entered into

val of the Noble Lord opposite, you will now, by affinning door
resolution., affix a censure on my Noble Friend, who In?

of the country, by respecting its engagements and the
ing into effect those opinions which, whatever mak! twat
doctrines you now hold, were the opinions oftile____. of

Commons in contradiction to that course, and by a
