have had an opportunity to test the Patent Safety Lamp and Lamp Feeder of Mr.John Newell, of this city, in regard to the measure of protection which their construction affords.In the trials to which we subjected them we endeavored without effect, to produce explosions of the vapor of the fluid mixed with air, and to burst them by the pressure of the vapor alone.The principle adopted by Mr.Newell is that of ihe well know Davy Lamp.He has so combined the parts that we are satisfied that all risk of explosive action is removed.CHARLES T.JACKSON, M.D., AUG.A.HAYES, M.D., Assctyers to State of

Corporation of Montreal, to examine WARREN\u2019S IMPROVED FIRE AND WATERPROOF COMPOSITION.ROOFS.To the Mayor, Aldermen, and.Citizens of the City of Montreal.Gentlemen,\u2014Visiting Buffalo, on the 23rd ult.to examine the buildings there covered with the Composition, and to judge of its efficacy to resist the action of fire, I was introduced to the Hon.G.R.Babcock, L.H.Lathrop, Esq., Aid.A McKay, C.F.Miller, Esq., W.Johnston, Esq., W.Hutchinson, Esq., Collector of Customs, and a great many more of the principal and most influential inhabitants of the city, who testified in the strongest and most favorable terms of the fire resisting qualities of the Composition, and recommended its general introduction as a safe means of covering buildings, it beingboth fire proof and water light.I personally examined a great number of first class buildings in Buffalo covered with the Composition, gravelled over, and I ascertained that the best bouses and stores in the city were covered with it, From all I saw and heard, I am of opinion that it is the safest and best kind of covering that could be used for buildings in Montreal.For the proper application of it the roofs should be nearly flat.This is attended with no inconvenience either in summer or winter, for the rain in the former cannot penetrate the roof, as the Composition is water proof, and in winter the snow is nearly all blow off by the wind.A great advantage of this kind of Roof is that in the event of fire by going on top of them, with the engine hose the fireman may protect all adjacent and surrounding property without the danger of falling.I observed that in Buffalo, most of these roofs were surrounded or nearly so with handsome iron railings, and provided with zinc, copper or galvanized iron spouts or cornices, which, besides being completely fire proof, gave the buildings a very pretty appearance.The whole, nevertheless respectfully submitted J.B.Bronsdon, City Councillor.Montreal, Sept.13,

and of all Instruments from time to time removing such Trustees, or any of them, and appointing others in their places, or in the place of any of them ; also copies of all appointments made of Managers of the Marine Hospital, or of Commissioners of the Emigrant Hospital, established at Quebec, with all documents and information respecting the direction and management of such institutions .or either of them, and of any Rules and Regulations for the internal Government, and economy and the maintenance of the same,\u2014and praying also that His Excellency will be pleased to inform the House under what authorit3r or law such appointments or nomination of Managers and Commissioners has been made, and such Rules and Regulations have been established.\u2014Carried.Mr.Stuart moved an Address to His Excellency the Governor General, praying that His Excellency will be pleased to cause to be laid before this House, all information and documents respecting the building erected in the Lower Town of the City of Quebec, to be the Custom House, and established as such under the authority of the 10th and 11th Geo.4th chap.34, and the 2nd Will.4, chap.34, and copies of any Correspondence respecting the removal of the Custom House Department to any other building, and of any instructions for such removal and of the authority under which the Custom House has been removed from the place established by Law for the same, also, copies of any instructions given for the occupation of the Custom House erected under the above Statutes by the Water Police as a Barrack, and copies of any instructions to the Department of Public Works to examine the building in question, for the purpose of reporting whether or not it was capable of being made to accommodate the intended Provincial School of Navigation, with the Report made under such instructions.Also, a statement of the measures adopted for the selection of any other site for a Custom House in the City of Quebec, and a copy of any plans or estimates tor the erection of a fit and proper building to be substituted in the place of that which has been diverted from the purposes for which it was so established.Motion carried.Mr.Stuart\u2014Enquiry of Ministry whether it is their intention during the present Session to introduce any measure to improve the administration of Justice in Lower Canada in Criminal matters ; and also whether they intend by any such measure to relieve persons who are, under the.present law, owing to the high qualifications which it imposes, called on to serve as Jurors frequently in the course of the same year, and who are thereby exposed to unnecessary loss, discomfort and inconvenience.Mr.Drummond said it was the intention of the government to introduce a general measure on the subject.Mr.Boulton\u2014Moved for copies of all Reports and Enquiries, Documents and Evidence on which the payment of £650, mentioned in the Report of Public Works for 1851, to William Cotti ngham was paid.* Mr.Boulton moved the House into Committee of the whole to consider the expediency of having two or more commissioners appointed to manage the Sinking fund as in England.\u2019 He stated that there was no subject more necessary to engage the attention of Parliament than the state of the Sinking Fund for the Provincial debt.It was established first in 1812 when £l-500,000 were borrowed in England, and it was then provided by the act authorizing the Loan that 5 per cent on the amount or £75,000 stg.per annum should be appropriated.In 1847 another act was passed, reducing the sinking fund.to 4 per cent or £60,000 stg per annum ; and in 1849 an act was passed requiring in addition to the said sums all the receipts of Public Works exceeding £20,000 per ann; the 5 section of the first act providing that each year a correct statement shewing the exact statement of the sinking fund, should be laid before the government, and yet up to 1852, no statement of the rules or orders in council regulating the sinking fund' had ever been submitted to Parliament.He said it was most important that large sums should not be permitted to accumulate in the hands of government, lying idle Avhilst the country was paying 6 per cent on their debt.The Report of the Commissioner of Public Works for 1849, 1850, and 1851 shewed that in those three years the Public Works produced £160^ 130 net revenue to the Province from which, if £20.000 for 3 years, the amount retained by the act for Public purposes, is deducted, it would leave £100,130 in the hands of the government to be invested as a sinking fund in addition to the £60,000 stg.since 1849.He also stated that there was a large accumulation of special funds in the hands of the government, which out of justice to the parties interested should be invested at 6 per cent and was laying uninvested doing nothing.Of these funds £85,000 belonged to the Clergy Reserves fund ; £12,000 to the Grammar School fund; near £5000 Jesuits Estate fund, and £18,000 Indian fund :\u2014in all upwards of £120,000.This added to the funds for Public Works, £100,000, would be £220,000.Then there was £300.000 due to the sinking fund for 1849, \u201950, \u2019.51 and \u201952\u2014of this sum £152,426 had oeen remitted, leaving a ballance in hand to-wards the sinking fund that should be invested £148,576, which added to the £220,000 would leave a total balance in hand on January last that should be invested and bear 6 per cent interest of £867,276, that from not being invested the Province and the parties interested in the Special Funds lost nearly £20,000 per annum.He asked if this required no remedy ?He said that the principle of a sinking fund involved the necessity of investing the interest semi-annually and yet these large sums remained uninvested for years almost.In England a Commissioner was appointed for this purpose who managed this fund, and at regular periods the money was paid over by the government to these parties.This course he wished pursued in this country, and with that view lie moved a committee to consider the subject, in order that steps might be taken to prevent such a heavy annual loss to the Province.Mr.Hixcks did not intend to go into a general defence of government against the impeachment of the hon.member for Toronto.The whole of the sinking fund was invested last year.The sinking fund this year was not invested.\u2014 The amount was not invested in .1851, but there were reasons for it.The governor and deputy governor of the Bank of England and Chancellor were the only persons who took any interest in the matter of the accounts in England.And he contended that this machinery was not necessary to be employed in this country.He did not see the propriety of etnploj ing the number of clerks that would be necessary here.He said that it was advantageous to purchase debentures of Canada in England, at five per cent.\u2014 He contended that there was no loss, as far as a sinking fund was concerned, by purchasing there.He said that the Clergy Reserve fund and Jesuit Estates fund were not for investment at ail but that what the government had the power to invest was invested to advantage.(Mr.Boulton explained that in the month of October last only £6500 was invested.) The Inspector Gen eral said that the question of whether the govern-! ment was right or wrong did not now come before the House\u2014and that at_tl)S_ proper time he ! Mr- Merritt quoted the different acts of Par-Ihament, establishing the Sinking fund ; and con-fienped thatjhe amounts which should have been [applied to the sinking fund, were notscTl^plied.Mr.Mackenzie spoke at length and com-plained generally of the management of the public funds and adverted to the difficulty that was experienced in procuring an account oftheir dis-posal.He made some observations relative to the style in which the person who kept the cash accounts m the Receiver General\u2019s office lived, n?.SttDtilt was hkMy 1° excite suspicion.Jniwi

great attention.He said, however, that he did not consider the appointment of commissioners necessary, the more so, because the hon, introducer of the motion asserted that he would propose as such commissioners, a member of the Executive Council and the Speaker of this House, whereby the entire matter would be in the nands or the Government.i.Mr.Hincks stated he had said on former occa-sions, that if any member of the House complained of the management of the public accounts he Ought to go hoforo the Piufiueo OumiulLLee, when he (the Inspector General) would be ready to refute any charge which might be made concerning their management.He censured the insinuations of the last speaker in relation to the manner in which business was conducted in the Receiver General\u2019s office.Mr.Cauchon made some remarks upon the allusion to the Receiver General\u2019s Department, and said the person spoken of by the member for Haldimand had asked for an increase of salary.After some further conversation Mr.Brown stated that he did not think that the public funds were_ja&naged so economically as thoy might 'Ofhe.He asked why the sinkinp\u2022 fund wag

to grants of land, by way of reward or otherwise, and also to the sales of uncultivated Crown Lands in Lower Canada.\u2014 | Mr.Morin replied that the ministry had lost'] eight of the questions of the hon.member for Nicolet, owing to press of business, but they) would give it their attention and prepare to an-l swer.\t-\u2014J Mr.Drummond moved the second reading of the Bill to repeal the fifth and sixth Section of the Railway Clauses Consolidated Act._ Mr.Boulton said he was opposed to the unconditional repeal of those clauses, but he had no objection to do ao in certain cases of trunk lines.He thought it highly reprehensible to mass acts .of parliament one year and repudiate them Hie next.It was demoralizing and calmijatcd to bring our IcgisTatidn into contempt, as the hon.InspecforTTeneral had himself adniittêd~düring the last session- of paiTnmif-n i He protested against such legislation.Clauses like tliose now sought to be repealed, had been found necessary in EhgTanlTandTlie Unitetl States.UËTcontend-ed thaf such clauses were a necessitrv~cliicE\u2014 He remarked on rash legislation, and did not think we should have so much if we had an Upper^Hoasalbatrexemse-cLcroper supervision.Mr.Drummond was quite sure that thêTîôn.Inspector General had never perpetrated such an absurdity, as to say it was demoralizing to repeal during one session an act passed during the preceding one, but he did say that to repeal the Trust & Loan Co.Act would be immoral,because (they had invested money on the faith of it.He contended that the fifth and sixth clauses of the general railway act were nugatory and ought to be repealed.He believed those clauses were void as tending to restrict the privileges of members of the House, or at least voidable for that reason.He read an author, whose name we did not hear, in support of this view.He did not think the Iclauses could have been enacted if they had re-'ceived due attention from the House, which he believed they did not, when passed through committee and reported.Mr.Macdonald of Kingston contended at some length to show that the clauses might be repealed.Mr.Merritt thought it necessary to have n general railway act, with strict, provisions to chuck ~Mr.YUichards said the bon.member was very glad of going to the United States for examples, and would inform him that they had no general railway act there until they had made all their railways ; andjvyhen we had made ours, he (Mr.and binding than the former.One of the incl-lents to the latter was legal obligation to apply I the funds obtained to the purposes defined by the charter, and to none others\u2014and that a majority, however great, could not, against the wishes of a minority, however small, change the pursuits of the corporation.He (Mr.T.) believed this to be not the law' of England alone, but \u2018of France and the U.States, and that without an exception, and this he should presently attempt to shew.The bill in question proposes to give power to a majority in this corporation to construct, by means of the funds and credits of the corporation, a railroad in the state of Vermont, irrespective of the wishes of the minority.It will be admitted that this was not contemplated by the act of incorporation.It is admitted by the present application.This Bill asks this House to be instrumental in carrying individual corporators into an enterprise to which they had never consented to be instrumental ; in compelling shareholders, who, for reasons satisfactory to themselves, had invested their means in a domestic improvement, to embark against their consent in a Foreign doubtful speculation.Such a,jBeasurç will impair and disturb vested rights, and he (Mr.T.) challengédTthë friends oFtïïïs bill lu anew lia iusiance in WDicn such an attempt had been held to be legal.It would not be pretended that the Legislature could compel individuals to become members of a corporation, the object of which was to invest moneys abroad.\u2014 And was it less unconstitutional first to deceive them into becoming a corporation for domestic purposes by one act of Parliament, and by another to compel them to make their investments abroad.In the case, Mount vs.Shrewsbury and Chester Railway, it was decided at the instance of a single shareholder that the company could no t invest its funds in improving the navigation of the River Dee upon which the prosperity of the road depended, nor in obtaining an act of parliament for that purpose.The Master of the Rolls then said : \u201cThat a Corporation possessed of funds for objects defined by Acts of Parliament cannot be allowed to apply them to any other purpose whatever.However beneficial it may appear to the majority of the company.\u201d In the case of the New Haven Railway vs.Croswell, Chief Justice Nelson says :\u2014\u201c That corporators can exercise Ino power over corporations beyond that con-jferred by the charter to which they have sub-peribed.\u201d In the case of Ware vs.the Graqd Junction Water Company, the Vice Chancellor, at the instance of a single shareholder, restrained the company from taking water from the River Coine instead of the Thames, and from obtaining an act of parliament for that purpose.In the case of Cardiff vs.the Manchester and Bolton Canal Company, the Vice Chancellor, at the instance of a shareholder, restrained the corporation from converting a portion of their canal into a railroad, and from appjying to parliament for a charter to warrant it.In the case of the King vs., the Eastern Counties Railway Company, which had stopped short of one of its termini, and voted to go no further, the King\u2019s Bench, at the instance of the minority, by mandamus, directed the company to proceed in accordance with their charter.In the case of Stevens vs.the Burlington and Rutland Railroad, Chancellor Bennet of f Vermont, at the instance of a shareholder, restrained that company from constructing that road from Burlington northward to Swan ton, under an act of the Legislature of Vermont, authorizing such construction, but passed after the shareholder became a member of the corporation.Notwithstanding that the company offered to give bonds to indemnify him against all damages which he might sustain by reason of the exten- /\u2022 sion.The Chancellor said : \u201c That Courts of Equity treat as a fraud upon a minority, which the courts will neither sanction nor permit, any attempt to use the funds, or pledge the credit of an association, without the scope of their fundamental articles of agreement.\u201d The Chancellor said that if the shareholder had been sued on an averment, he might have claimed that he was absolved from liability, and that, having paid, he had a right to compel a performance by the Corporation in accordance with the charter and to keep them within its provision.The Chanceler asks \u201c does any one suppose that the Legislature could, without the consent of parties, absolve a corporator from liability on his subscription to the corporation, or modify it ?and can they do the reverse of it?He had no hesitation in gen£raLrail- R.) wqulaJtee_nQ_oJ)jections to Kay !.'¦ Motion carried, and House went into committee of the whole upon the bill.Mr.Smith held that the Government should give some reasons in the preamble of their bill for the repeal of the clauses.Mr.Boulton held the same view, and moreover 'held that it was indecent just to say, \u201c be it enacted that the fifth and sixth clauses be repealed,\u201d without reciting any reason why it should be so.Mr.Hincks asked the bon.member to state what particular railroad be objected to.Mr.Boulton said, none, who ermid comply with the provisions, sous-ht-their repeal He contended at some length they were a necessary protection.Some conversation took place.Mr.Drummond moved an amendment, the effect of which we did not understand, owing to noise under the reporters\u2019 gallery.The bill was passed through committee and reported.On motion of Mr, Drummond, the rules of the House were disposed of and the~~bill read ard time and passed.1 ! ' Air.Young moved the third reading of the bill .would accountfor all these matters, i f.to amend the St.Lawrence and Atlantic Railroad Act, Mr.Terrill objected to the bill, and said that it had been introduced without notice, or, at least, without sufficient notice, and had been read a second time before the parties really interested were aware of its existence, or of the intention of this corporation.It was true that there had been mention in one of the Montreal papers, that the St.Lawrence and Atlantic Railroad would apply to the Legislature for an amendment of their charter, but that notice gave not the most remote idea of an intention such as was shewn by this bill to embark in an enterprise totally foreign to the objects of the charter.He did not accuse the directors of this road of attempting sub silen-tio to carry their point, but, assuredly, such a notice was not that required by the rules of this House and the public interest.When the Bill was printed, he (Mr.T.) had taken occasion to send copies of it to Stockholders whom he knew to be interested, and who had previously protested against the scheme, and as he expected, the result was, that some of them had petitioned this House against the passage of this Bill which had then been read a second time.This corporation was chartered tef construct a Railway from Montreal to the Province Line, there to connect with the Portland Road, and in that corporation the public were solicited to become shareholders and many subscribed for Stock, some thinking it offered favourable monetary advantages, others thinking it a duty to aid in colonial intercommunications.Others, again, and the greater number, trusting to be repaid by those incidental advantages, such as facilities of trade,increased value of property, &c.Among the latter were many inhabitants of the county of Stanstead, who bad reason to believe and positive assurances that the road should be constructed through the centre of that county.They had been deceived, whether honestly or with profit to the corporation, or to the public, it was unnecessary now to enquire.The question was, what were the legal rights of the respective parties ?That was to be solved by the House in dealing with the \u2019present measure.He (Mr.T.) had always supposed, and had no doubt that, in the creating a body corporate, and in becoming members thereof, legal obligations were created, both between the Government and the corporation ; and between the corporation and its individaul members, The latter no less sacred saying that it would be beyond the pale of the constitutional authority of the Legislature.In the cases of Coleman vs.the Eastern Counties Railway Companies, Lord Langdale, at the instance^ of a shareholder, restrained the corporation from guaranteeing certain profits to a steam packet company to act in connection with the railway, thereby to increase its business, even though it was shown that the shareholder was prosecuting at the instigation of a rival company, and in Natusch vs.Irving and others, directors of the British and Foreign Life and Fire Assurance Company, Lord Chancellor Eldon, at the instance of an underwriter at Lloyds, who had paid only £150 on account of stock, restrained a compauv, with Rothschild at its head, having a capital of five millions sterling, organized to effect life assurance, from extending their operations to Marine assurances notwithstanding that the company tendered him his, money with interest and offered to indemnify him.He (Mr.T.) did not contend that, if this parliament should enact this bill, that the courts of Equity and Law would have the same power-over it as was possessed by the courts in the United States, but was unwilling to admit for the purposes of this argument that the powers and jurisdiction of this parliament are as transcendental and absolute as Lord Coke asserts that of the British parliament to be, that it cannot be controlled either for causes or .persons within any bounds ;\u201d but, as was said by the Hon.Commissioner of Crown Lands the other night, a parliament had not always the right to do what it has the power to do.There are bounds of right and justice within which it I should confine itself : it should not.interfere with the contracts of parties : it should not disturb or violate acquired rights : it should never attempt to create a new corporation and thrust the old corporation, willing or unwilling, into it.Such an act would be unmitigated despotism.\u2014 It was unnecessary then to discuss the present circuitous location of this railway in Canada.It was located and in an advanced stage of completion.It was also unnecessary to question the propriety of.having undertaken to construct 17 miles of railroad in an uninhabited and uninhabitable part of Vermont.The directors, right or wrong,_ have undertaken it and must now complete it or they will have a road running into the forest at the Province line without a connection.Since the directors of their road, in their report of January last, congratulated the company upon their having been so fortunate as to obtain a concession of this 17 miles of road, it is possible that they have provided means for its construction.The petitioners and others did not consider it such a boon ; they believed that it would jeopardize their interests.They were receiving no indirect benefits, no increased facilities of communication and commerce.\u2014 their properties were lessened rather then increased in value by it; they protested against the scheme ; and now pray that they may not be thrust into it.They fear that if this Legislature should send their interests to Vermont that that state with the same reason might send them to Texas.They do not desire, however, to intercept the progress of the company, nor to deprive others of the benefits which the directors had, as they say, so fortunately secured.And upon being released from the stock for which they have subscribed and upon being repaid the moneys they have invested in this corporation with legal interest thereon, they will freely waive all right and all objection.He moved an amendment to the effect, that, certain shareholders in Stanstead should have their money return-to them, with interest, should they desire it if they gave notice within a month after the passing of the act.After some explanations from Mr.Young and a few words from other members, the motion was / carried, and the House went into Committee of the Whole for the consideration of the amend-ment, which was adopted, and added to the Bill 11 which was read a third time and passed.Mr.Boulton moved the second reading of the Bill to authorize the Corporation of Toronto to raise a Loan.Motion granted and House resolved itself into Committee of th'e Whole on the Bill.The following Bills were read a third time \u2022\u2014 Toext^ndHie time limited by the Montreal Registry Act^TIon.Mr.Drummond.\t\u2018 To improve Law of Evidence in Upper Canada \u2014Hon.Mr.Richards.BonltoneHef °f ^ Gamerou M
