cavalry, have left Zonis -to :embark for

leave on-the 12th. ' •
In the House of Cominons on Tuesday
night an interesting debate took place on a
petition of the people of Nova Scotia against
the Canadian act. Mr. Bright Moved thet
a commission beappointed to - inquire 'lnto
;the cause of discontent -in Nova_ Scotia in
regard to the operation of the act of confed-I
eration. " Mr. Bright supported , his' motion ,
with a speesibi in which he declared an in -1 .
vestigatien • illto -,thist ,Matter -could not
be otherwise than advantageous. If , re
fused, the people or Nova Scotia would feel
that they-were victims Of a policy—with
which they did,not and could not sympa
thize. Such refusal would increase hostili
ty to Canada and estrange theta froth Eng
land and,, give powerful .stimulus to
their sympathy with the United _States.
Justice to the people of liciVa • Scotia
and generosity to"the United States de
manded this inquiry. The Ministry would
be greatly to biamoahould any untoward
event result' from a 'refusal to grant . this
'demand. ,
, Mr. Wm. Baxter, member of Montrose,.
'seconded the motion made by Mr. Bright.
, Right Hon. C. D. A:dderly, 'under' Secre
tary of the Colonial Department,. replied
for the government. • He acknowledged
that discontent pre'Valled in the province
of Nova Scotia. He took occasion to deny
the correctness of a statement made by Mr.
Bright, in a speech made on the_,lsth of
May, to the ellect that the passage Of the
Canadian Union act in Parliament was not
final, but merely preliminary, to the act of
the Legislature of •each of the provinces
concerned. • The appointment • of this
gommission_of , inquiry _ . :would:be a
great • evil, and be considered an
insult by the Dominion of Caniula.
He informed the House that steps had'
been taken by the Government to allay the
present feeling in the North American
• 'provinces. He said this feeling was riot so
bitter as represented, for the acts of the
Canadian Parliament had since been ap
proved by Nova Bcceia. and whatever dis
content still existed would probably disap
pear, as the people of that province had no
reason to apprehend an increase of taxation
or expenses.
After further discussion.* division ' of the
House took place on Mir. Bright's motion,
which resulted, for the commission, 87;
against, 183-=majority against, 96.
Later-inthe. event*. Ilse - Irish Church
appointment of the suspe, usionary bill was
a
passed to third reading. .
