Mr . Kicharbbox wotikk confree iim ^ f to that reso ^ ton moved by Mr , Rider aad wconded by Mr . I Wacsdea , becaase o ? er -them the Convention had ] some right of control as membem ef . the .

( Hear . )
. The Chairsak rose to order . He thougbt the language too strung , and the impnUtion of motives improper . Mr . Richabdsos . Sir , when tbe Convention is called npon in seen language a « tfeete reaohiriott * did , calling upon them to rari * t , h £ thoaebtb * was quite ea titled to prove that ihe * junau of the pirtj ^ « u acrlog wasnot a right one . ¦ Dr .

Dr . Fletcher conld not agree with hi * friend , the Rer . Dr . Wade , in all that ' he advanced , however sasch ae approved of the generality o ! it .

Mr . Richardlson wonld support the original address . No doubt it would have been advisable to hnve had it out at the same time as that from the HoHses of Parliament , bnt in his opinion it uadjost nothing by the delay . With regaru to Mr .
