to be re annexed to Kent, but to be set apart witn a portion ol that county and a portion ot Mild e»ex into a new c«unty altogether.Al»er some further d'seusamn Mr.Brown\u2019» motion in amendment wea put and carried,\u2014 y»as 20, nays 28.StTAUATK SCHOOLS Hon.At.Gen McDonald moved that the hiL (from the Legislative Council) t amend the lew* relating to sp|»arale school» iu Upper Canada be lead a first lime.Mr.Baowx trusted tiie Government would not press on so munairous a b ll at this period of the session.He wou'd ratbrr see the present common school system altogether abolished than have this measure graileii upon it.By thi« any five heads of families could set up a school of their own and would so divide up their étions and thrir mesna of supporting schools 'hat it would break up lb» system altogether.Many Upper Canada members were already away others were about to go in order to test (he sense ol the House upon the subject before they Irlt he should m^ve now.Mr.brgAKKR suggested that aa a nisiter of courtesy a bill emanating from the other btanrh of the Legislature should be lead a first lime without opposition.ihe bill having been read a first lime.Mr.Attorney General McDonald moved that it should be read a second time on Wednesday.Mr.BaowN moved in amendment that it should te read a second tune that day three months.Mr.HaaTMAN said if the bill bad been entitled an Act to destroy the common school system ol Upper Canada it would have had a more appropriai# title.8t.Gen.McDonald aaid the principle on which this bill was based was not a new on\".They already had separate schools in t>o:h sec-tiouaofthe Province under the existing law.They on y ought to give'hem that in acceptable foim which they already bad.The necessity lor changa nad been pressed on the attention ol the Government and of both branches of the Le* gisl uure by iietinona i.utiierously signed in Upper Canida.Ti.« principal d.fTeienre was bat under he old law 12 householders had to sign a petition to the municipal council tor a aepa>aelled t y in> \u2022o other parties could do so.Pio-testa b, that Rev.gentleman in which it was pronood that a certain poition of the Government grant should be reserved in the handi ot the Superintendent to be granted to the separate schools according to (he number of acholais in attendance.Those clau ei he had atiurk out of the other bill as not pr.perly belonging to it But her* w as \u2022nt of the leatiires ot the present bill which he understood was most strongly objected to by hon.members opposite which bad so distinct \u2022\u201e,] preaa Approval of the supeiinlendent of education Again it had been mane a rustler of Complaint that ihe bill waa introduced inlo the Upper Houep by a Lower Canadian member of ih» Govern ment although affecting Upper Canada aolely.It as happened that but two members of tbs Government hod seats in tbs Upper House.One was the Speaker, and tbe other the hon.Keccivet General was the only member who rould take charge of a meaaur* on the floor of the House.That was the on y reason why ha took charge of ol thia bill.Tha hon.member for Lamblon was pursuing a most unusual ernrae in < pposm ; h Kill si thiaatag#.the motion now t>ef\u201ere the Hooae was rather a notice than a auba'antiv# motion, and the hon.gentleman would more pro perly move his amendment and take the disent aion when the Secotni reading actually came on tbe bill seemed to kirn that a certain amount of tbe sum raised by th« counties waste be devoted to tbe man teuance of h \u2022 -itua * tapai ate >\u20ac' Ools though those who got them up were exempt ftooa taxation fur the support of schools.I buy were to get that in udddiliou to tha Government grant while specially exempted from taxation tbem-»#!»ed with such provisions in it Mr.CAMeLK said it was quite true they had the separate »choo! ayatem already, but it would be much better to abolish it altozetber than to extend it in the marner projosed by tbia act.He quite agreed with what hid fallen Irom hon gentlemen near bun.Thia bill would have the ef-lect ol breaking up the common school ays cm ol Upper Canada.He felt strongly on the point became he was proud when he irlWtedon tbe pro- {ica» made with those schools in this part of the \u2019rovmce\u2014that in his township there waa » school library a* well as school in each rchoo* section.Thu bill was calculated not to advance the ayatem ol edu< aUon in Upper Canada, but to bring it down to a level with the means id education enjoyed in Lower Canada.He warned the Attorney General and Upper Canada membeis of the admimatratina that nothing could be more unpopular in Upper Canada than auch a meaauie aa this.It pnaisled in it wou'd only be forced Uf-on Upper Canad » by a majority of Lower Canada votes.For h:s part he would aoouer aee the whole ayatem abolished than accept thia measure.TbeV piojtoaed to take a portion of the sum raised by the other rate|>ayera to build up this system tor ibose who were exempted from the 1**\t^ more utteily unjust they could not emanxte Irom auy Government.Whatever He Attorney General might aay about the opinion of the Suj-enn-tei deni oi Education, he knew that he wa* not aware of the content» of this bill, for hearing that such a bill was before the Council he hail t«l*-giaphed him on the subject, and learned in reply 'hat he bad not seen and waa not acquainted with its provisions.He had great conlidence in the Krvd.gentleman in all mailer» relating to our educational system.He telt aure that he would nt give thia bill his approval He (Mr.G.) was always glad to go with the Coverninent when he eould, and had mdeavoied to give them an independent supjiort.He therefoie adopted the course he felt called on then to do, with regret, hut he must oppose th*» measure as a most objectionable and dangerous one.(TO BK CONTINUED.)

early national histo- ,he Hrivy Councjlwy itnwkwit IgrHTOUjf rians.Hut let this consideration pass for the present.Let us be grateful that under any circumstances a list of documents so closely connected with tho history of Canada al an interesting period has been brought lo light.The documents and correspondence contained in this volume amount to almut IfiO distinct and separate articles.A large portion of these Mr.Christie obtained from H.Ryland Esq., ot Montreal.They had been in the possession of his father, tho Hon.Mr.Ryland, who came to this country in 1793, as confi-«lential Secretary to Lord Dorchester, and served in this capacity for twenty years un-«ler several successive (iovemors of Lower Canada.He also retained the important office of Clerk of the Executive Council till Ins decease, which took place at his residence at Heauport, in 1838.A biographical sketch of this remarkable man is prefixed lo the forthcoming volume, and will be read with undiminished interest by those among us who may remember a similar account which appeared some twenty years ago in the Mercury.He was a man who pursued ardently what he believed to be for the interests of his King and Country, zealously desiring to anglify the population of Canada by any means, that is, by compulsion, if gentler measures were not sufficient.There are, however, in the present publication other documents both before and after the era of Mr.Ryland, which cannot fail to be perused with much interest.Ami in addition to all these there will still remain for publication in a future volume the Appendices referred to in previous volumes, comprising the Reports of .ord Gosford and the Commissioners, and of ,ord Durham.Whatever opinion may be formed by different persons of tho stylo and manner in which Mr.Christie has persever-ngly performed his arduous undertaking, it is beyond all dispute that he has thrown valuable light on tho history of Lower Canada, and furnished materials which may in future imes be referred to as records of tho ighest importance in the compifotion of the annals of British North America.To attempt review of a work before it is published, were wn in a capacity to do so, would bo premature.Wc can, however, with confi-luncp repe.7t that the original documents, now brought to light in the promised volume, possess a j>cculiar interest to the inquiring mind.We aro sorry therefore to learn that only a few copies will bo for sale, between 100 and 200, and of these not more than 50 at Quebec.Persons desirous of obtaining a copy should apply without delay to Mr.P.Sinclair, tho well known Bookseller, in St.John Street, and leave their names with him.The entire edition, ns we hinted before, goes to the Legislature with tho exception of 200 copies ; of these some fifty at least will be reserved for circulation among private friends and other such purposes, leaving only at tho utmost 150 for sale.If every one of the small number reserved for sale be not immediately taken up, our wonder could only he exceeded by tho shame of such disgraceful apathy.I'Hr* Lamotow Mid no doabi the hon.metnhsi for Lambton wn* pursuing an unusual course but tbe rourte of

is that a great link of commu-nration with the Lake superior Mining Distiict which waa much needed, is now secured.Beside* the mines on the Cangdian shore, there are ne hundred ami twenty mining locations along the South shore of the Lak\" worked by American companies.From the Toron'o J^eoefer we glean some interesting particular! relating to the Lake \"uperior mining regions The I*ad'T savs that few ot the min»s are as Vet yielding profita ble returns.The latest accounts of the products of mining districts represent tb»t not more than two or three are yet in a rond tion to pay a dividend Some do not pay working expenses Rut it must not he h>rgoit*n, in forming an estimate of th* resources of the Lake Superior district, that much of what hss heretofore gone under the name of mining bu«iness has been mere speculation in stocks.Of the hutched and twenty mining locations on the South shore of Lake Su-pettor, the majority are only in the earheat \u2022(ages of development.And many
