Deprecating dis- cussion until 'the EilI had been distributed to members, he went on to describe its chief features, The Court was 10 consist of a Chief Justice and six other Judges. The reason for fixing the number of Judges at seven, he said, was, that the Court would be a, Court: of Appeal not only frdm the ,lour Pro\ laces" n w confederated, but from the whole Dominion, which would soon in elude other Colonies thatmight ere long be expected to join it, and it would add great- ly to the popularity of the Court if the Bar .of eachrrovince were reproseeted on the Appeal Bench. Sir John then went on to refer to the different systems prevailing in the various Provinces, as for instance, the .separation Of Equity from Common Law in Ontario. and the existence of both French And English legal practice in Quebec, as reasons for having a good representstive -Court. Omitting many 1atters included in the Bill of last year it was thought better to confine the original jurisdiction of the •Court to cases inwhichthe Crown was a party. Alluding to the prevalent ides. that .such a. Court should take cognizance of Constitutional questions, he pointed oet that such powers could not b' conferred upon it under the Canadian Constitution, but could only be delegated by the imperial Parliament. The Court would possess no power of veto on legislation, and could only deal with Constitutional questions if they came before it on appeal from the Provincial Courts, where they might be reieekk by litigants who challenged the Constitutioa- ality of any law. The Court, however, would be empowered to issue a certificate of the Constitutionality or the reverse of an Act not having the force of a judgment 'but for the' purpose of inforifning thQ Urown of its opinions which could be acted upon -or not at pleasure. The printer had omit, ted a clanse in the copy of the Bill, to the effeet that no appeal ehould lie to the Court, until the powers of revision of the Provin- oial Coui ts had lieen exhausted, and then only with the consent of she parties. Mr. Mills objected to the basis of ' clue lifidation. in the Bill as illogical. It gave a man a vote not for what he was, but for what he had, a principle quite contrary to that which regulated the affairs of daily life. After delivering an ably -sustained argu- ment in support of his views on the princi- ple of the Bill. tho, hon. member criticised it in details. MONDAY. In the House to -day Sir A. T. Galt re- ,-eurned the debate on Mr. Huntington's resolution; on 4 Customs Union, or Zell- -verein, net ween this country and the Unii.ed States. After some prefaratory remarks, Sir A. T. Galt said he shoeld, with the full con- -currence a the Hen. Mr. Huntington, move au amendment, the effect of which would be to exclude from the- resolutions the portion krhich related to the establish - men of a Zo'f le014 He deprecated any retaliatory pdlicy, and warned the people of Quebec against stipportirre the Govern- ment in any sten policy. He complained of the inactiom of the Government in the matter of furtleering,the trade of the count- ry, and urged tie prosection of such pub- lic works as would attract immigration and 'further the comyercial interests of the Do- minion. Sir sT.1 A. Macdonald replied. The resolution in effect, he considered, amounted to a beve ranee from England at the soonest possible moment -an issue which Canada, the " spoilt child " of the Mother Country, sl Could be loth to take. Ile asked how theycould ask England to ma;eitain a treaty which was actually Against her own inter -ests. As to the policy of the Government one :Free Trade, he would not be- cOa.xedinto a dj closure on. that point now. He concluded by moving : That this House, while desirous of obtaining for the Dominion. the .freest access to, the markets of the world, and thus augment- ing its existing prosperit Y, is satisfied that that object can be best ob rained by the con- current action of the Impteial and Canada- ian G-overriments.- That any attempt to 'enter treaties with foreign powers without the strongest direct support of the molier country as a principal party-, mast fail, hnd that a Customs Union wil%h the United States, now so heavily taxed, would be un- fair to the Empire, and inji irious to the Dorninioneand would weaken the ties now happily existing between them. " Hon. Mr. Smith urged that as the shippi ng interests_ of the Mn -dime Provinces were)" suffering .from tire present situation, something ought to be done to resuscitate them. Aon. Mr. Howe claimed teat the Governmen t had ex- pended all the means in their power to ob- ain and if Canada *ou.ld only wait a year or two there would .be a Reci- procity Treaty once more. He refernsd to the Intercolonial Railway and the North West Territory as being matters that must be settled before any other 'great expendi- ture could be undertaken. The hon. mem- - her concluded by showing that retaining the present position :with Britain they had hundreds' of millions of people in all parts of the world to trade with, whereas, by -Ruch treaties as were proposed, their mar - kets would be limited to a large extent. The debate was continued by Mr. McKenzie, who supported Sir A. T. Galt's motion. Dr. Tupper strenuously supported the iMinietry, And charged Sir A, T. Galt with being the leader of the annexation party, a position, which the latter indignantly disclaimed. After a lengthy debate a division took place on Sir John A. Macdonald's amend- ment, which was carried by a vote of 100 4o55. TUESDAY. -Sir J' Mucks moved the emicurenee of the House on the resolution on Dominion notes. The first clause was adopted. An amendment was moved, that the amount of specie, to be held° asstinst 'every dollar issued . should be stated. The amendment was dis- cussed, and lost ou a vote by a majority cf 32. - Mr Blake . moved an amendment, ..that the resolutions be refer redback, s� as -to amend tbe same so as to peovidS for hold - mg specie in reserve in peoportiop to the Dominion notes outsanding. Th ° amend- ment, wars lost, -by a majority of 9. • - Mr. Mackenzie moved an amendment to the effect that the sum to be held in specie by the Receiver General, for redemption of Dominion notes shall be 20 Per cent of the amount in circulation, until it exceeds five millions, when it shall be 25 per cent of the excess. The amendment was lost by a. -majority _of 39. The Minister of Justice said it was now intended by the Govern- ment to introduce a " Bill relating to the. Nortb-West Territory, but that the. Gov- ernment were waiting for the deputation which should have arrived already ',ut for unforseen circumstances. sie•oe • Dr Rahway, of " Remedy Relief " fatne, died at New York on the 14th inst., aged 45.
