The alteration in the Legislative Council

some Of which are curious. as exhibiting
the shifts 10 which the enemies Of rcspon-
sible colonial governments are occasional

conversation with one of the liberal party,
limited that strong objection TO granting
the reform in question was, that the MAORI
~ demanding the change, though over
whelming, was composed chiefly OF persons
of French origin, whilst the minority oppos-
ed TO the change consisted chiefly of per-
sons Of British origin. If the population
had not been Of mixed origin, said the Com
missioner. there could be 20 objection 10
the proposed change. Wen, then, was the
rcpIy-try the reform in Upper Canada,
where it IS prayed for by a large majority,
all Of British origin. And how, reader, do
Won think the Commissioner got out OF tins
awkward dilemma 7 By replying, that al
though of one origin, the people were not
so unanimous as in Lower Canada. Here
are hard conditions Of reform indeed-uni-

the alternative being no other than to give
complete effect to the will Of a contempt

and he wished for son. AZ length a son
was born to inherit, as he said, his name

daughters grew, and were justly admired

IN short, Amelia Goldsmith was habltually
