LAKE HURON RAILROAD.The order of the day was read for the 2nd reading of the Bill to revive the Act incorpo-ratino- the Toronto and Lake Huron Railroad.Holt Mr Speaker stated that the object of the Bill was to continue for four years longer the period in which the proposed Road must be completed.Hon Mr Gordon enquired whether the orders of the House had been complied with, in the present case, with respect to the length of public notice which is required to be given before an Act of Incorporation can be obtained from the House 1 fie thought it would be advisable to refer the Bill to a select committee, to ascertain that point.Hon Mr DeBlaquiere thought it would be better to make that enquiry of the Law clerk.Hon Mr Speaker suggested that a select committee would be the best means of ascertaining whether the rules of the house had been complied with.Hon Mr McKay expressed a similar opinion.Hon Mr DeBlaquiere would move the 2nd reading of the Bill.In April 1836 a Bill passed incorporating the Toronto and Lake Huron Railroad, and requiring that the Road should be completed in ten years.That period expired in 1845, when the Directors obtained an extension of four years longer.In 1849, after this further delay had also expired, a bill was Eassed incorporating the Toronto, Simeoe, and ake Huron Railroad, and which expressly reserved to the Legislature the right to incorporate any rival company.It was therefore evident that the Government did not intend to give them any exclusive right.During the present session the Directors of the road had applied to the house for permission to change its terminus.As this change would enable them to fix it at twenty or thirty miles from the city of Toronto, the question was, how far the bill could be considered the same as the one passed last session, provided this alteration is made.The Bill now before the house merely asked for the revival of one which had formerly existed.He was aware that two petitions had been presented against it.One of them had emanated from the manager and other Directors of the rival road, and the other was from several stockholders.In those petitions the petitioners would lead the house to suppose that their Bill, with desired amendment, would be the same as heretofore and they omit to state, that it would altogether leave Toronto without any railroad.\u2014 He would therefore contend that the House could do no injustice to the petitioners by allowing the revival of the present bill, because the other company desire to remove the terminus from this city, and because their bill gave them no exclusive privilege.He should now move that it be read a second time.Hon Mr Ross said, he would move that the Bill be referred to a select committee for the purpose of ascertaining whether the rules of the house had been complied with in regard to it.He did not see why a bill of so much importance should be pushed through.Hon Mr DeBlaquiere explained that a Committee of the House bad heard the evidence of three respectable individuals of Toronto respecting the proposed change in the Terminus, and they had stated that the change was highly objectionable to the people of this city; but it was desired by one individual, because he was personally interested.The names of the parties he had referred to were Capt.Strachan, Messrs Ewart and Arthur.Hon Mr Ross said, ho had last year presented a petition from the large majority of the inhabitants of Toronto, among whom were bankers, merchants, and others.It was mainly on that petition that the House had passed the bill, and allowed the stock to be raised in the peculiar manner which it provides.He therefor did not think it was right that it should now be said that the bill was passed for the benefit of one individual, because it was passed on the expressed wishes of the people of tills city.It was not proper to act in such a dog-in-a-manger-like man ner.They did all in their power to oppose the grant of a loan by the citizens of Toronto, and having succeeded in that object, they now oppose a railroad because the terminus was Used at another place.The motion was then carried for referring the bill to a select committee, to ascertain whether the rules of the House had been complied with.The Committee is compos, ed of the Honble Messrs Mackay, Boulton and Ross.MILITIA BILL.The bill to continue the Militia Law, was read a second time, and ordered to be read third time on Monday next.Hon Speaker stated that the object of the bill was to continue the militia law for three years longer, and if in the meantime, a war should arise between England and the United Elates, it then provides for its existence until the termination of such war.Hon Mr Tache spoke in favour of the bill, and of the great advantage of militiamen.SECOND READING OF BILLS.The bill to cede lands to certain persons for burial grounds, was read a second time, and ordered to be read a third time on Monday ; the bill to provide for the formation of joint stock companies for roads and other works ; the bill to incorporate the Toronto Necropolis; the bill to amend the law respecting the inspection ot beef and pork ; the bill to incorporate the St John\u2019s Academy ; the bill to provide for the extension of the Montreal and Lachine Railroad ; the bill to regulate the inspection of fish and oil ; the bill to enable Louis Compte to recover a sum of money due him ; and the bill to enable parties to recover sums due for labour on certain roads in Lower Canada, were each read a second time and referred to select committees.JOINT STOCK COMPANIES.The House concurred in the amendments made by the House of Assembly, to the bill to provide for the formation of joint stock companies, for manufacturing, mining, and other purposes.VICTORIA COLLEGE.The bill to remove the site of Victoria College from Cobourg to Toronto was read for the first time, and ordered to be read a second time on Monday.BILLS

Canada, and of Witnesses and others to be heard before them.Hon Mr.Badgley, from the Standing Committee on private bills, reported, that the Preamble of the Bill to incorporate the Benevolent Societies of the Wesleyan Methodist Church has not been proved, and that they cannot under the circumstances, recommend the House to proceed with the measure ; and also, that the Committee had proceeded to the consideration of John Counter\u2019s Stoves\u2019 patent Bill, but having no information before them in relation thereto, recommend that a Message be sent to the Legislative Council,

and £6,780 for tho Fortins, besides £7,071 3s 4d paid last year for those, so-called, Mounted Policemen.We were congratulating ourselves on the apparent fact, that the probable income of the year would more than meet the expenditure, notwithstanding the wasteful lavishing of the people\u2019s money on such political partizans as Doctor Fortin and his be-whiskered soldados ; when turning the leaf, we discovered a codi-cile to the Honourable Inspector General\u2019s \u201c will\u201d, that, turned our \u201c beef to bannocks, cauliflowers to kale\u201d ! We found, by it, that over and above the estimated expenditure of £611,394 0s lOd, \u201can appropriation is required\u201d of no less a sum than £223,865 14s 3d, \u201c to complete the Public Works of the Province, &c\u201d\u2014and further, that the so delicately alluded to \u201c &c.\u201d, consisted of £15,000\u2014 to be expended in \u201c alterations and additions to Public Buildings at Quebec.\u201d Expenses of the removal of the Seat of Government to Toronto £22,023 7s 3d, of which, for repairs and alterations in buildings, is £7,873 5s Id, and for furniture £5,522 14s lid,leaving £8,627 7s 3d for the mere transport charges.Now these charges, from Toronto to Quebec will at least be 25 per cent more than from Montreal to Toronto\u2014say £10,000\u2014a portion of the furniture may be removed ami wel\u2019l therefore put down the new furniture required at Quebec at £3,000, which, with £15,000 for the new buildings there, will make the removal of the seat of Government from Toronto to the ancient capital cost the country £28,000.Thus, we have £50,023 7s 3d, spent within three years on the removal of the seat of Government from Montreal, and a prospective cost of £10,000 for each subsequent removal from Quebec to Toronto and vice versa.Portland and Halifax Railroad.\u2014We publish below the circular issued by the Projectors of this Line of Road, by which it is sought not only to unite the interests of the Colonies of New Brunswick and Nova Scotia with those of the Northern and Eastern States, but also to open up a shorter and more expeditious communication between the continents of America and Europe.The convention referred to in the circular is thus spoken of in the Halifax Chronicle :\u2014 The convention about to be held at Portland, Me., is, in our estimation, the most important movement in which these colonies have ever been called upon to take a part.It would be impossible to estimate its importance or calculate its results.The sun ol prosperity is about to dawn upon these provinces from a quarter least ex-pected.Hopes and expectations long delayed, are, it would seem, on the eve of being realized \u2014not from the Parent State, to which our attention has been hitherto directed, and from which we had a legitimate right to expect assistance\u2014but from our elder brethren of the United States, who have for the last throe quarters of a century being doing business on their own account.The invitation extended to the colonies by their American neighbors, is a significant lact.CIRCULAR.The plan of extending a line of Railway through tho State of Maine to the Lower Provinces, and to some good harbor in the Eastern coast of Nova Scotia, has long been regarded as a measure of the highest importance to the commercial interests of this continent and Europe.Events which have occurred on this side the Atlantic within the last few years, in the British Provinces and the United States, have led the most discerning minds of both countries to concur in the belief, that the time is rapidly upproaebing, if not already arrived when on effort should he made, hy all parties interested in such a result, towards its consumma-lion.The region ol this continent lying to the East of Lake Champlain and the Hudson River, and between the River and the Gull of St.Lawrence and the Atlantic Ocean\u2014in reference to its Geological features, its topographical and physical geography, presents many striking characteristics, inviting the attention of the naturalist and scientific inquirer.Its soil, climate and commercial advantages, indicate, that it possesses the greatest natural advantages for the development of the highest physical and social condition of man, and point it out as the future abode of tbe most enterprising portion of the race.The region of the country from the circumstance of its early settlement and the political changes it has undergone, has witnessed the most exciting scenes in the history of this continent, has been the theatre of the fierce contests of different races, and shared in all the oventlul changes with which for more than two centuries the nations of Europe have been disturbed.The final predominance of the English race, throughout this region had scarcely become esta» blished, when new relations awakened an equally embittered hostility between England and her for* nier subjects, leading both countries into bloody and destructive wars.\t\u2022 Thespirit of peace has at iast prevailed\u2014national animosities, sectional and political hostility have disappeared between the English races, since the establishment of the boundaries of Maine and Oregon, and the contests of war have been sue., ceeded by a noble and generous rivalry for the promotion of the arts of peace.The introduction of the steamship and the rail-way, has made former enemies friends, and the citizens of Montreal and Portland, of Halifax and Boston, ol St.John and New York, are to all intents and purposes one people, speaking a common language and struggling for the same destiny.National hostility has given way to commercial and social intercourse, and under whatever form of government they may hereafter exist, they can never again become hostile or unfriendly.An effort is now made to increase the means of communication between different parts of this extended region.In aid of this purpose, a Con-ventiou is to be held at Portland, on the 3lsl of July instant, at eleven of tho clock in the forenoon, at the City Hall, at which time and place it is proposed to consider the various schemes which have been proposed for the accomplishment of this result.The immediate object of this Convention is, to agree upon the most feasible plan for prolonging the line of Railway from the Slate of Maine to the Lower British Provinces, to some good harbor best fated to become the entrepôt and terminus, for the most direct line ol trans»Atlantic navigation, and form a connection by Railway between the Upper and Lower British Pro.\u2014*cz , ./ b th6_-1?tnte of Maine.Such a line of Railway extended from New York and Montreal to a point of connection in Maine, and from thence to Halifax, would undoubtedly prove the most popular arid most frequented highway for all travellers between Europe and America, and a great thoroughfare both for the old and new world.The Atlantic can be most readily crossed from the eastern coast of Nova Scotia to the western coast of Ireland, thence by railway to Dublin, and by steam to Holyhead, whence the Menai Strait is crossed by the Britannia tubular bridge, and so to London or Liverpool, or any part of Great Britain or the Continent of Europe.One great central line tor European communication once laid down, into which the various branch lines could enter on either side as required, connected also by lines of Railway with Montreal and Quebec, would secure a system of Railways surpassing in value and importance any that has yet been proposed.Whatever views may have been formerly entertained on this subject by the people of the several British American Provinces, we have reason to believe, they are now unanimous in maintaining the opinions above expressed.At a meeting of the Chamber of Commerce and citizens of St.John, hold on the 6th of July, instant, to consider what steps should be taken to further the proposed line of Railway through this Province, in connection with a Grand Trunk Line from Halifax to Boston, it was Resolved,\u2014That this meeting feel the most lively interest in tbe establishment of a Line of Railway from the Frontier of the United Stales to Halifax, through this Province by Calais, St.John, and Shediac ; and further resolved, that as the only portion of the proposed Line from the United States, Enstwardly, now unsurveyed, is between Calais and this City ; a Petition be presented to the Executive to cause a preliminary survey of this Line, to be made during the prêtent session, upon the understanding that the State of Maine will survey the Line, Westwardly, from Calais to Bangor.Resolved,\u2014That a committee be appointed to prepare the foregoing Petition and take such other steps as may be expedient for carrying out the subject matter of the same.Resolved,\u2014That the Committee be authorized to appoint Delegates to attend the Convention in Portland, on the 3lst inst., for the purpose of conveying to the citizens of the United Stales, engaged in the undertaking, the determination of this meeting, to use its utmost endeavors to coin plete a Line of Railway through the Province of Slew Brunswick, to connect Halifax with the United States.Similar measures have been adopted al Halifax, and it is believed that the same feeling pre** vailsw ith the Government and people of Canada.At a public meeting of the citizens of Portland, Widonthe 11th instant, the undersigned were appointed a committee of their fellow-citizens to what steps are necessary to be taken in Krtherance of a proposed Line of Railway from the Slate of Maine to the Lower British Provin* ces, and to take such further measures as may be necessary in view of the proposed Convention in aid of said project, to be holden at Portland, on the 31st o' July, instant.They w
