Editorials on lesding topics, In the Commons, the fourth report of the Printing Committee was referred back, after conselerable discussion, in which the de= r ability of obtaining correct and full official reports of the debates was generally recog nised. Mr. McKesxzts is reported to huv« embracged the opportumty of stating that h« treated the remarks of the Tiwes of Fridas lust, "with contempt," a piece of inforâ€" mation for which no Aoubt the House was exceedingly gratefhil. For our own part we should â€"have had more Luth in‘ Mr. McKexzi®‘s * contempt‘ haudKe passed the matter over without comment, but the point is entirely ‘immaterial. _ When, nowever, a committee: gdopts the â€"report of a sub con â€" mittee, and invites the H use to do the «am«, evidently withont investigation, it is certainly w.thin tme provinge of the press to expose the erroncâ€"usness of the mhemation upon whici the Huse isiavited to act. â€" In this particu lar cuse whut is repreâ€"entel as * tqtu"l to a " duily isgue of fourteen ¢ AJumns of the Globe * newspaper," is ouly equal to eleven. . I+ is but fair, therefore, that the fuet shoull be maJe known, and we undertook to publish it without the fear of the mnember for: Liumt ton‘s * contempt" ° Lefore onr eyes, and without .~ at _ all â€"objecting _ to ~the prices named for the actual amount o‘ work proposed to be done.

The claims of the newspaper are therein pat . forâ€" ward on grounds which, perhaps, it would séem presumptaous or egotistical in the jourâ€" nalist himselfto urge; but, nevertheless, we shall run the risk of the insputation by sayâ€" ing that in our conviction, they are truly stated, and it remains for the Lgislature to decide whether this "small grievance," growâ€" ing out of a "diseased dosire of aniformity," as our correspondent so pithily puts it, shall be allowal. to become law. It cannot be supposed in this particalar that the (Governâ€" ment has any otherdesire than to tairly inâ€" terpret, and fully carry out, the wishes of the people, &# expressed by their representatives (and not by the pre«=), and hence we imagine, if the views of the representagives of the people sccord with our correspondent‘s and our own, there is yet time to â€" make that contession to the feelings of the people of Nova Svotia and New Brunswick, which we think ought to be made, anl which, after all, as a practical argument, is perhaps the stronzest that can be urged. We must, at least, have uniformity wichtn the Provinces, and the question is â€"shall Ontario and Queâ€" beo conform to the Maritime Provinee sysâ€" rem, which they would willingly do? Or, shall the Maritime Provinces conform to our system, which they detest? Reaily, we think aw.one shouil hesitate as to the anâ€" «iver, who desires to see our Union popuâ€" larized in all the Provinces, and with every ***s in each of them.

Citwv and County Official Paper NEW XUÂ¥ERUNIsEMENHS P @revie THE fourth report of the referred back, after in. which the de= r" ct and full official Do. the steamers« Department 1,047,334, total 4,863,845. â€" Of these, he tells us, a coffsiderable numberâ€"were free. _ Well, suppose we wdmit that 363,845 were iree, aud it they were, there must have been a most startling abuse of the franking privilege. Tuis would leave 4,500,000 to pay postage. Now, letus suppose, that 2,000,000 pail only 2 eonts (the comitry and drop letter rate) though that number is larger than the delivery in Hahtax and th@g country let ters put together ; but let that pass.* Saiy 2,050,000 at 2 cents or $10,000, leaving 2,â€" 2090,000 at P cents, equal to $125,000, mak ing a total of $165,000. I+.not this a very molerate caleulation, and if it is, what beâ€" comes of the hen. member‘s fzures, secing that according to him the whole revenue wus oaly $77,673, or considerably le«s than haif The Postmasterâ€"General has taken the ground that the Department over which he presiles shall be paid for the service it perâ€" forms by the party whom it servesâ€"that the carriage of newspapers as a matier of princiâ€" | ple ought to be paid turas well, though mot ‘ at as high a rate, as that of letters; that ¢onâ€" siderations of revenue outweigh considera tions of expehency urgad on the opposite side ; and hence newspaper prstage is to Lbe exacted throughout the Dâ€"minion, instead of) the free system at present prevailing in a part of it. Now, Mr. Doveare‘s proposal is to acâ€" cept this, but t» continue an exceptional sys tem ofexemption towards Agricultural, Ed aâ€" cational and Temperance papers ; and he sets his reasons forth at some length in his letter published yesterday. Mr, Doveart gives as ‘ Feasons why these papers should be carried free that they do not come into competition with newspapers paying postage; that they are not paying concerns ; that they do * an ! "immense uggregate of goud;" that they create a deal of correspondence; that they are the light of the shanty, the solace of children, a pleasure to many, and an offence to nome ; that they contain no polines cor controversy, but wre in fact a sort of appe . tiser to whet the feeble intellect, and prepaure it for the more substantial or less indigestable pabulum of postage paying literature. I To recite his arguments 1« almost to. refute ; thein,. _ Not one of them touches the question ‘ at issue. â€" The first might be met by the asserâ€" tion that sample and book parcels, dry goods 1 or groceries, ilo not compete with newspapers, | and shoul.d therefore becarried free ; to the | second we can truthfully respuad that many | newspapers are not " paying concerns," but 4 this has not the remotest, connection with l the question. It their circulation is promoted | from benevolent, . ratifes than pecuniary, l mutives, why should the public be taxed in , their behalt? . Then, as to the good they do, l it is mmpossible lor a moment fo. suppose that their naefuiness can compare withâ€" taat of the l regular newâ€"spaper. â€" More agnotliur4, eiuâ€" | eation cl, and temperance information is given | by any one of our prominent newspapers in ’ a year, and to a vastly greater numnet of people, than half a dozen special organs can pretend to do;. while the corresponience ereated by the daily, triâ€"weekly and weekly _ ssues of the _ lay _ press, | anl .the imwmigase ~business estublishâ€" | weeK 1y weusgs _ of. the _ lay _ picss, anl .the _ immaopse . . business . @stablishâ€" me t« they invidve, is‘ «o far out of reach of tim. wouek is mivle by the specialists, that we womder Mr. DorGaLL would Rave vewgre i w cuallenge the comparison. . s it trae tuat me Temperance, Agnonhurabor E«ugati¢nal Soarnal is really the instructor of the sBa 3y ? It is the cheap weekly edition of the city Yesterpay we gave insertion to a commuâ€" mcation from Mr. Joux Dovesrr, of the Montreal Witness, on the exemption from postage of Educational, Agricultural, (and [emperance papers. . After a careful pernsal of his argument, we have failed to discover i single reason why these, more than uny ther papers should .be carried by mail at whe expense of the whole community, instead f ut the cost and charge of those who send hem, or to whom they aresent. We very much regret, not on the ground of principle, but as & consideration ot the highest mod n et urgent expediency, that the Postmuster leneral has not seen his way to the adoption ofthe system at presens prevailing in Novi 3otia and New Brunswick, insteal of that i+ force in Quebec and Ontario; but while wol ling that sound polieyâ€"considerations of revenue excepte |â€"clearly points to the aboâ€" htion of newspaper postage throughout the Dominion as the most acceptable, and the veet caleulated to prevent an increae of rriâ€" tation among those who are not over. well iffeeted towards the new order of t‘hingi, we cannot for a moment give our sanction to the perpetuation of exceptional favoritism to any _ particular . class of pubhcuti&u, no matter on what grounds their #pecial pad specious merits may be urged. t what the letters alone must have yielded, if as numerous as represented ? _ But was the hon. . member . perfectly _ ingenuous in itating the product of the letters as $77,000 ? Hon. Mr. Caxeser1 sail about. $50,000 (which was probably something usder the mark). _ Are there no other itenmis of revenue in the $77,000, no foreign new spaper postage, no parcel or book postage? . If Mr. Dickgyx‘s ligures are correct, insterd otf 363,845 free letters, there must have been about 3,363,â€" 145, the remaining 1,500,000 being quite sutâ€" licient to ‘account for the revenue actually collected ; for it must not bet forgotten that these include the 7 cent letters, and those also of a higher rate, if there were any, the average being probably 6 cents or thereabout«. For the year 1865 the Postmasterâ€"General of Nova Scotum réports the letters pissing â€"hrough the Halifax office as 745,000, and through the country offices 980,000, giving « total of 1,725,000, and tais number agtees reasonably well with the revenue collected that year. How the number should have run up to very nearly 5,000,000 in 1865 is not easy to conceive, and we apprehend our seaders, if not Mr. Dickey himselt, will be very greatly at a loss to understand it, puartiâ€" sularly when the revenue, instead of showinz a corresponding improvement, only exhibits one of 10 per cent. against one of 150 in that »f the lettersâ€"as stated by the hon. member. ion | â€" The correspondence of individuals, is a priâ€" 1ey | vate interest of the writer, or reveiver, or an | both, which neither have any claim . whatever, rey | that the society or Government of the country, ey | should conduct or transact for them at the of | general expense.

Why ‘for the sake of sticking to a small grievance create a wide spread illâ€"feeling ? 1t is asked,. why should not printed matter going through the wail pay for care and cartiage, as well as written matâ€" ter? ~At first sight the coinpnrl.on looks reaâ€" sonable enough, but on closer view, it will be found there are essentially different reasons 'i for taxing the one species of matter, and exâ€" | empting the other. . daily, or the nearést villwe newspaper, and . that only, that is taken into ten out every l dozen shanties in the batkwood«. _ The I ACmada FParmer does not go to the poor man, whose chief cceupation is chom;in; tue forest in the winter.and burning it up in summer, w anything lke the extent it circulates among . the combrtable, and perhaps wealthy, camâ€" petitors at the ugnmcultural fairs: Tue ex emption as to agricultural papere favora the well to do, rather than the poor, farmer. And why agrienultucal more than any other? Has not the merchant, the ‘mechanic ~and every other craitsman the right to his organ? But Mr. Dovcart: points to the existing law of Canada as the limit. We arraign that law as exceptional and absurd, and though we quite agree with Mr. DorcarL, that the quesâ€" tion of compettion with other newspapers may have little or no force, we argue thut as a matter of principle the publishers and readers of uny given‘ class of literature have no special claims upon the rest or the community to entitle them toa public service for nothing. We hope, therefore, that if the Postmaster is to contimue the exemption in favor of the cla«s of papers nemed, he will at least be consistent, ‘and extend the system to all journals when mailed from the office of pub ple an.! of public opinign.

In the Scasional papers of 1866, No. 3, (Mr. Postâ€" masterâ€"General Howland‘s Report) he (Mr. Dickey) read as tollows: " The amount of postage due to Canada for the sea conveyance of mails between the United States and Euâ€" roje was for the year to 30th June, 1865, $74,â€" 479.31.

Hon. Mr. BUREAU, (in French,) maintainâ€" ed that it would be exceedingly dangerons to allow moneys to be lodged not liable to seizure. In Lower Ganada the names of depositors were concealed as much as possible, but still they were not beyond the reach of the law In Nova Scotia they had a more violent remedy than in Canada, since the debtors wore put in prison until they bad mad« a disâ€" closure of their effects, H« reponted his obâ€" jection to render the monâ€"y s nnattachable, as it would open the way to innumâ€"rable, franuds.

There was, howevsr, a remedy in Lâ€"»wer Canada when frand was suspected, for th : debtor could be brought up on a writ of c« »ias ad respondendum. Hon. Mr. WILMOT said he did not see why the amount should be limited, while the interest was not. The House was legislating in this matter for the public, not fora bank, and heentirely differed from hon, members, who wished to limit the deposits, for, if the Government could get mon»y by this means, at 4 per cent., instead of Tor 8, they: should avail theinselves of it.

He tiought, also, that the exemption of such d«â€" posits from attachment by legal process was objectionable. There was no such clause in the Savings Bank Imperial Act, ant hy did Hou. Mr. CAMPBELL said that as the Bill would have to come again befors the House, he thought it wouls be butter to send it to the other Branch as it was, and if it were not there amended in the sense desired, this House could deal with it again. #fl. Mr. ALLAN thought it wonld be more incoBveuient then than at the pressout moment. If the Government would say that they would muke the proposed alteration in the other House, he would not further ubject. â€"It was certainly not desirable to have a Savious Bank, in which parties could lodge large suums beyoud the reach of seizure, - Hon.

He took the liberty to make these enquiries because the Bill was to come into operation on 1st April next. He might hâ€"re say, too, that his remarks would equally «pply to the, payment of advalorem dutics, but of course that was another subject, n»t see why it should form part of the Bill. He knew such an exemption bad been made in respect of life insurauces, but that was a veory different matter. With this exemption purties wmight â€"find the meaus of lodging money in different names to accumulate large siums in the proposed Savings Bank, and then defy their creditors. * â€" Homn.

Sir JOHN A. MACDONALD was alâ€" ways able to rely upou the utterances of the Government being freely reported, as being ‘for the public interest to be made acquainted with,. lHe romarked that the report came to uo conclusion, and that concurrence in it would amount to nothing, and give no authority to â€"anybody, and thought, therefore, that it should be referred back to the Committee, Thequesâ€" tion as to editorship was an important one. Members were occasionally misandéritood by the Reporters, as might be scen from the letâ€" Aerstroquently addréss d tw the London Times on the sabject, and corrections of such misâ€" understaudings should be allowed,. but whatâ€" ever had been really said, be it wise or otherâ€" wise, ahoutd be publishedâ€" as it bad fallen, The tem,.tation would often be._very great to soften,duwa the toue of a sppech so as comâ€" pletcly to dustroy the truth of the report, and . where aoy .such garbling might occur, a Â¥ery uplrimr:pwch made in reply would be renâ€" dered utterly ridienlous, although, perhaps, of no Emall iafaâ€"nce upon the House, . H+ thought it would, be. well. to .make it an in« struction to the Comunittee that the report should ‘be provided for in Freuch as well as English, an i that they sbould bring up & ts comm»n lation of th: bust method of abtain; tug itâ€"and cbaviog it edited. /A responsibl editor, ‘who woukt poma=s the cunfidence of the Howst, migbtte got to indertake the tasm tor a Session at a remmnâ€"ration of $1,000, an withou: such editorship the scheme would be better not unaertaken at all. Me agreod in . Mr, D. A, MACDONALD feared that the wdoption of the Report would, as at the Quebes Conference, tend to the protractiop of â€" Mr, HARRISON would support the motion from the sensc of the want of an official record. The argument against it as likely to encour» age lengthy speeches would go to excluding reporters altogether, We were called upon eontinually _ to . decide upon â€" questions of _ doubttul â€" juarisdiction _ between _ the. Genetal and the Local Governments, and it was important that the . views of our statesmen upon these subjects, with the reasons for them, should be put Clearly before the DiMBNC:::â€".. .3 :2200 L0 on idns the debates Hon, Mr. HOLTON favored the adoption as an experiment, arguing that experience had shown the greéat wiunt of some muthoritative record of the utterances of members. Hon,. JOSEPH HOWE, under ordinary cirâ€" cumstances, would be inclined to leave the matter to the free competition of newspapers, but here, where so much of the newspaper rcâ€" porting was transmitted by telegraph, it was impossible that it should be as accurate as was to be desired. The expense had been spoken of, but he asked hon. gentlemon. opposite what was $12,000 or even $20,000 to anation like this? (Laughter.) Afterlistenâ€" ing to the able lecture of the member for St. John upon contempt for cconomy he could not rcfase to vote so small a trifl«. He had hiimsclf «at in the Reporter‘s gullery, and done |their work of day and night, and know what it was, and he knew tou that, although they sometime«s made a better speech tur au hon, member thin he had maite himâ€" self, they very scldom made a worse one. (Laughter.) After come remarks from Mr. BELLEROSE, Mr. BODWELL thought that #o member had reason to complain of the impartiality or eMiciency of the press reports, and with so great a necessity tor economy, should certainly record his vote against the motion,. _ Dr, PARKER thought that English history would bave been vastly enriched by the preâ€" servation of such a record in earlier times: Hon, members would be more cerefual ot their statements if they knew that they would go to the country fully as they had been spoken. Hon. C. DUNKIN held that the question was not between report and no report, but beâ€" tween report and incorrect report. He‘did not in any way reflect upon the reporters in the gallury, whose characterand ability were known‘ to all of them, but the telegraph coald not t#ll trach, and the bulk of the press received no other than a telegraphic supply. It was right that there should be somsthing to be held in terrorem ovel members who stand up to talk nonsense hourt by hour (hear, hear, and a laugh), . A record Buch as that proposed could not fail to improve the style of sebaâ€" ting here, as well as add to the political inâ€" tormation of the country. He repeated that he intended noimputation upon the newsâ€" paper reporters, many of whom were more cipable than most of the members of the House. Mr, FERGUSSON, as a member of the comâ€" mitte, had thought it advisable to defer any action on the subject until the newspaper pmiflctoll eou!d have an opportunity of comâ€" ing byfore the committec, and saying if such a record could be provided by them.‘ Printed in the public shects th: information would bs disseminated through the whole couatry, but in bound volumes would be only obtainable by one or two leading en of each county. Mr, F, JONEs thought that we had been trying experiments quite long enough, ot some of which we could not quite see our way to the probable issue. Hon. gentlomen would be sometimes quite as well pleased if no such authoritative record existec. (Hear, hear, and laughter.) â€" He was entirely opposed to incurâ€" ring such expense. record should begin from the insuguration of the New Dominion Parliament, and that the suggustion, if to be adopted at all, should be adopted ut once,â€" Hohad every confidence in the. good faith of the reporters, but with the limited space at their disposal they could not possibly preserve perfect accuracy. Mr, SPROAT opposed the motion as being likely to encourage Jengthy s#pevches, and thond'hl that a suficiently faithfal record was already preserved by the newspapers. In New Zealand, which had been instanced, there were |comparatively fow representatives, but here, upon any question of moment, each of the 18 ; would desire their views recorded. Mr. CHAMBERLIN considered the incthod proposed as the very best possible. ‘The hon. member for Hants had very clearly stated the position of newspaper proprietors, who could not afford to have abgolately fall reports sent across the wires. One important point seemed to have been lost sight of, We had no written constitution, but one based upon precedentand not statute law, and to imitate as closely as possible British institations, we should take our etand most of all upon expressions of the wisdom of rtatesracn. He was surprised to hear the hon. member oppositeâ€"himsclf a lawysrâ€"undervaluing the importance of preâ€" cudent, . It we inteaded to look to the future, and to building up our constitution upon the ouly safe. foundation, he would not be disposed to sct so great a valus upon & few dollars. (HMuml, heary .‘ "! 9 . 000001 Hon, J. H. CAMERON thought it imporâ€" tant t preserve such & record. Every hon. member knew bow gladlyâ€"votes and proceedâ€" ingsâ€"were received by their constitaents, and there were many better ways in which money might be saved than in refusing this proposal for the benefit of the whole péuple. Mr, MORRIS having spok :n briefly in supâ€" pore pff Cthve RRORON : oys ons micllcgn iC3 io Mr, E. M. MACDONALD thought that the Mr. McKENZIE, rqpeating that since the matter had fickt come nuder consideration, the Reporters had kindly consented to take full notes for use, it reqqired by the adoption of such a plan ILvr.-uu--r, moved the recommuitâ€" tal of the repofrt,â€"with instraction to recomm« mend the sugzystions of the suvâ€"committee, Hou, Mr. .‘HIi{'l'H sitpported the recommitâ€" tal of the repott: for the purpose of completâ€" ing the arrangements. HMe disapproved the proposal to allow the members the opportunity oi revisiag their speeches. 4 Mr. SAVARLY also spoke in favor of official reporting. 11« said the reports wonld b: of great aivantage in holding members to a stricter «ccouut for theit course im the House, The question of econoimy should not be conâ€" sidered in this connexion, as the amount inâ€" volved would be insignifiâ€"ant compared with the advantages to be gained by the country. He was mlianwtl that if adopted the system of official reportiag would be approved throughâ€" out the Domition.
