Cartwright said the iiwtion had, not been sprung upon the House; but had been givenfixi ven notice of by the leader of ®the Oppositio’n. The charge of want of patriotism, on the part of the Opposition was the usual insinuation thrown out when ’any course was, taken which would be in-’ convenient to the Government. The Ad ministration had not shown the slightest \dispbsition' to furnish ijiformation; andrthe leader of the Opposition would be shirking htS manifest duty if he failed to make his motion. Moreover, the Government had practically admitted the existence of griev ances in' their hasty formation of a commis-. sion to adjudicate all claims. After recess, Mr,-Cameron (Huron) said the'proper course would -be; to^stibmit all papers .to Parliament, which.could then judge whether or riot there had beeri any : mismanagement.

The Reform'vote in the year named was 443. .' So that the' “seething, excitement!’ against *the Franchise Bill in Bentinck has been • felt liy some what more than 10 ppr cent, of ’ the voting population, .and considerably—less than a fourth of the ordinary Reform vote.

It may be worth while to see whether or rio’ the same names do not appear in both petitions, ; Mr*. Lister also presented apeti*.
