Lord R. GROSVENOR also strongly opposed the bill, on

to divert fends for objects for which they were never in-

denominations—(hear, hear). If this bill passed a most

Sir T. Cochrane, and Lieut. Col. Drummond.— CANADA CLERGY RESERVES BILL.
Herald of yesterday. • • Before proceeding to move the order with regard to the
Canada clergy reserves bill, Lord JouN RUSSELL commu-
nicated to the house the substance of a proposition which
had been made to him by the Archbishop of Canterbury,
which, he was told, was likely to obtain the assent of those
who had the most right to represent the church of England
in parliament; and was, he understood, also considered fair
and just towards the church of Scotland by the colonial
committee of the general assembly of that church. The
proposition was founded on the opinion of the judges, given
in the other house of parliament. It was proposed that one-
fourth, or rather, the proceeds of the one-fourth of the
lands already sold, should be given absolutely to the church
of England and the church of Scotland, in the proportion of
two to one ; that is, of three equal parts, two should be
given to the church of England, and one to the church of
Scotland. With regard to the remaining three-fourths of
the clergy reserves, it was proposed that they should be di-
vided into equal parts, of which one should be given to the
church of England and church of Scotland, divided between
them, as in the case of the one-fourth already sold ; that is,
two-thirds to the church of England and one-third to
the church of Scotland; and the other part should be left to
the disposal of the governor and executive council of Canada
generally, for the purpose of religious worship and instruc-
tion. The division between the church of England and
Scotland was founded on the proposition between the num-
bletrwsaisnitepcolorty respectively belonging to the churches.

the authority of the government, but with the general con-

person, deeply and extensively considering the whole inter-
ests of Canada, will disappoint the hopes which are enter-
tained that, in the present session, we shall be able to settle
the affairs of Canada. (Hear, hear.) Though one measure
may have a preference to another—though I am not prepared
to say that another measure might not be better than the
union of the Canadas—yet it would be most dangerous to in-
duce in Canada a belief that we were not acting upon any
settled plan with respect to them, but that we were acting
with capricious and party views. Believing this to be the
case, and feeling that I shall be responsible, if in Canada
parties should make it an excuse that our church had been
