Mr. P. MooaK gave notice of a motion winch
he should submit at sow succeeding Coitrt,,,Aliat
in conSideration of ,the discovery or an' error of
great magnitude Which had occurred at the ballot
on the 15th of June, 1815, ou the case of Mr
ThoUlas Graham, which was unknown at that
time either to the Directors or Proprietors, the
resoltition which passed in affirmation of that
ballot should be rescinded.

Mr. R. JACKSON moved that the Report of the
Committee (in the Bye-Lms be printed. ,
The ettAtttk.vt; conceived, that as the altera-
tions which had been made by the Conimittee
would of course be added to the oid bye-laws, it
would create confusion if the report were printed
sep‘tratelir.
The gINNAI an Sopported the motion.
111 thought it was tout due to the uommittee; that
their report should be coolly and deliberately con-
sacred by the Proprietors. In justice to the mo-
lion of which he was about to give 'twice, in the
name of the Chuirmati Of the Committee on the
bye-laws, now absent; that part Of the retort
which related to it Sioadd at leak be allowed to
be printed.
Mr. P. MOORK vehemently deprecated the idea
of going ,to Parliament to confirm these bye-laws,
who would in that eßse take the laws into their
own hands', and legislate for the Company.
Mr. R. JAcr.soN said, his object in moving for
the printiug of this report, was, in order that the
ge*ral body of Directors and Proprietors might
the better judge whether it were or were not ex-
pedient to apply to Parliament. lie felt the
strongest obligations and gratitude to the Com-
mittee
„for their labours ; and on some future oc-
casion it was his intention to move thanks to
them, if not individually, certainly collaterally ;
but it was not within the power of human intel-
lect in an hour's reading to judge' of the propriety
of grants to the amount Of 10,0001. The more
difficult the question was, the More necessary was
it to comprehend it.
After a few words from the Cdmirrnan' nod Nlr.
Pattison, a division took pee; vt hen the num-
