hef that po(u!atioo was the only sound
twit of representation without regard to

latioa of the two sections of the province

Last night: after the reporter left, the
House coatiuued in Committee on tbe Re-
presentation Bill.
The dirisoio of Counties of Lower Cana-
da Bill was taken up, and .mentadments of
the ministry was carried with bat tittle op-
position.
fu night, after the transaction of some
her population was greater than L pper
Canada, tad that It was only fair wheo the
popalatioo of Upper Canada, became grea-
ter, that as a quid pro quo she should now
receive the sate advantage that aloe former-
ly gore. But that argument, was out lair.
13, the time the act would come loin effec*,
im three years hence, the population of Up-
per Canada woul I much preponderate in
such ratio that if oue member were return-
ed for 15,000 inhabitants, Upper Canada
would send 89 members, to parliament while
Lower Canada would only send 69. And
further, Upper Canada would have bad a
larger population for a greater number of
years since the union when the present bill
would come into effect. Upper Canada
paid more taxes than Lower Canada, and
that in greater proportion than the differ-
ence of populatio.. Ile believed the gov-
ernment ought to endeavour to procure a
change in the maitre act, so as to allow a
change in the represeutatioo by a majority
of the House. The reporter understood
him to say, that if the government did not
take such a step, lis would bring in a motion
• to that effect. He concluded by moving
the following resolution in amendment :--
Mr. Brown mored in amendment, That
the Representation of the People in Par-
liament should be based upon Population,
aed the number of Members of the Ilouse h.d born .aid by Yr. Brown read an •x
of Assembly gradually enlarged, with the tract from the Globe is which it was sta-
ted that It was ungenerous and gnjust for

Mr. \turner had opposed the union bill ward and carry the hill of that year; lent
in all its stages, and one of its reasons for another so good opportunity of estabhah-
that was, that it was an injustice to Lower
Canada, because with a large population an
equal number of members were only given
to it; and he supported the same principle
now, that T'pper Canada had the larger po-
pulation. The bon. member, as we under-
stood contended that the best interests
ought to be represented as the best means
of obtaining. the representation- of the whole.
He did not see what Lower Canada had to
fear from the preponderance of Upper Ca-
nadian members, and he assured Lower.
Canada members that the contracted and
illiberal clews which they bad beard that

since the union. (\1r. Iliicks said no.)
Why had the Iron. member himself said that

the'aisbesof Lower Canada. (Mr Hlocks
said no.) •
Mr. Cartier was astonished tial an hon.
gentleman who desired to Lave this hill ear-
ned should bring forward such an amend -
progres.ire increase of population, upon a
6ted ratio of Representation and without
any regal.; to any separating line between
t ppm. and Lower Canada.
Mr. Mocks said the object of the amend -
was very obvious. It was to make popu-
larity. Ile (:dr. 11.) kuew it would be
popular to a certain degree in some parts
of Upper Canada. But if it were carried
it would destroy the bill. In passing re-
form it was always necessary to consider
i1 they were practicable, and members of a
party necessarily had to give up some points
of difference in order to allow the govern-
ment to be carried on. Ele (Mr. H.) had
0o besitatioo in saying that to demand the
passage of that resolution. was to demaud
a repeal of the union; and he would state in
bis place that if he were a Lower Canadian,
he would never submit to the pnneTle the
resaiutios contained. 'The basis of the
Union was equal representation, and it could
tot exist on any other pnociple. Ile (Mr
11.) was not prepared to say that the day
might not arrive, when the interests of the
_two sections of the .Province would become
so dissimilar as to render a dissolution ne-
teaury. But be did think it was most un-
generous, that after the first census bad been
taken, which showed that Upper Canada
Lad a greater population than Lower Ca-
uda, to demand a change of the represen-
tation. Reforms never could be carried
