The Session drags `along somewhat after the manner of an intermittent fever-there are the cold and the hot stages, with that frequent. charac- teristic accompaniment of the latter-- delirium. The cold .$llukBS have been induced by the `senseless and `uninteresting farce of gzbringing sundry individuals to _the Bar of the House, in the Shefford Election case, in which there- turning oicer altered a vo_te'after'its being given, contriryto the law regulating his duties, and` by which a. tie occurred in the'number_of votes polled for both candidates. These examinn- tions at the Bar of the House aretame and un- protable, and afford not the slightest chance to the members of the Assembly 'to generate their accustomed modicum of caloric-,ht_;-nce a stag- nated circulation resultsfinducing the .cold stage aforesaid, with all the accompanying pheno- mena-of goose-"esh, &c. But a revulsion quickly takes place - ature, like Dr. Ryerson, loves the casual advariagcs, and one of these during the present :::;ion has been `the Rep. by Pop. `scheme of the ember for South Simcoe,`wlii_ch withihimi h become as chronic as W. _L. McKenzie s- annual. motion for Dissolving_ y Union. 1 The Representation questiim, 15' _' snrprisiuglphloggtic,and despitivilie worst `condi- tion of 1e;h,.g yff:,'..,-nu exist,` it is sutficient to sanguine and lymphatic, even to the extent of up- citing the proper equilibrium of the vital forces, and` the entnilmcnt of that antipathetic of goose-. esh described before as delirium. We hope our `readers will not for a moment suppose we jest, or even deal lightly with this questionvof State mug- 'itude---we really do not,-and if our columns per- mitted it,`we could adduce such strong expressions uttered on all sides of the House, as would conrm to the letter what is implied in our comparison. -1-: , `-4:--_' L....,..1 -_ 1);`-...1nh'nn u-nun} cnnln excite at om-o Into unwonted activity alike the, bu uu: u;tu_ul. -v Representation based on Population must soon be dealt with in:-a manner satisfactory to Upper Canadians-we `jdemand it as ajustice, not as a concession" or favior. The late census has revealed some strange inequalities in the Representative system, which in any case would require to be remedied, and no better time than the present to nllirm the correctness of tl1e principle,,so that the _presen_t` Government, or its successors, may have a full knowledge of the work before them. It is certainly an anomaly that the United Counties of Huron and Brace, with a population of over 80,000, return only one member, while such a place as the Town of Cornwall, with its 3000 or 4000 is equallylreprzesentcd in the Legislature. This is a conditionthat has arisen from the rapid [increase in the population of the Counties before mentioned, and which, at the time of the last adjustment of the representation` was perfectly fair--the country being then new, and the popula- tion consequently small. ,But what is true of nun 1.; llzlllnnvsq ... Upper Canada, though not to the samecxtont, which fact forces itself awkwardly upon the Lower Canadians, who are at present a unit, save one, against the principle of Representation by Population. The workingvof the present Union. depends upon an immediate consideration of this question--men of all political parties favor it, and whatever Governmental combinations are agreed upon and entered into, the solution of this pro- blem must'be the basis ofcohesion. As it was on the Clergy Reserve-question, so -is it on this, the moderate party are its only-sincere friends, and it is expected of them that they at least will not relax one iota in their efforts. The debate is not `yet terminated-the speaking has been mostly con- ned to the leaderson bothsides of the House, and is argued almost altogether from the stand- points of Upper and Lower Canada, insteadof on its own merits, andas an open question; All the iFren_c_hmen"oppose it tooth and nail, as well as a smalligrty in Central Canada, while the Post- master, Ge_neral `and Attorney General, as n_o doubt the Commissioner `of `Crown Lands, of the present ,.Goveru'ment, are supporters of the prin- ciple, the former especially a staunch advocate. The \Member for North Simgcoe has always sup- ported this Reform, and_alth'ough it is an open question with him, we have no doubt he is fully sensible` of the judicious political landmarks of Iteform "aroti`.n'tl him, and` will record not only his yote injthe affirmative on Fer-guson s' `motion, but raise liiis-voice in its behalf, and givethe direct eontradictign to his unscrupulous opponents here, who hav.`e;:i,tj;sinuataed that he `is on the wrong side. ` ` i ' - .... - .` `.u.u-cu c u .'u`o Huron and Bruceis true also of other Counties in ` BANK`: We have not received the blue book containing ,the'Public Accounts, but in lieu thereof give up epitome from the Leader, which annihiletes at once the `loud: outcry raisedby smallbeer politici- ans that the " Government has doubled the public debt in five years; with a present indebtedne'ss'of '$'I0,000;000. _" It will be noted that thejiublic `del1t,is'only $54,000,000; dyer ten million of dol- `lars-`having'been"redecmed within the time be- 0 tw'eeniI85le.nd~I859.*'The article referred to is _ instructive in many other points, and welnvite its ?attJentiiveperual.A We haveithieiratisfaction at `the presenttime, that while no" other country in the`-Vrorltxl can Boast of such extensive materiel -progress`. within the last seven ior eight years; our debt is no more per head than theemallest of the _British American Provinces, and less than rnany of the States or the Union.

From the Leader. _ I `No `previous report on the public accounts" t has been so elaborate as that which. we give to-day. ` Besides dealing with revenue and ex- penditure, with the publicdebt and the sink- ` ing fund, the.Finance Minister presents aiview extending over. several years, ofimmigration and settlement, of the sale of Crown and Clergy` Lands, of the lumber trade and the general commerce of the Province, of tonnage and material progress,1of the progress 'of'e(tu- catinn in each section of the -Province. The ordinary revenue of 1860 was $8,115,725 31 and the expenditure $8,884,518 66. It must be remembered, however, that a heavy extra- ordinary charge-connected with the conversion of the public debt came into the accounts of 1860, thouglrit ought in fairness `to be distri- buted over the whole period during which the debt` will,be' in.course of liquidation, under the operation of the Sinking Fund. VVhen` this is" taken into account, the deficiency is trifling; and if` therevenue of the present years goes on at the present. rate, it will probably yield enough to square the account and Vmeet the other charges against it. Another extraor- dinary cha.t`_;:e was that conttectedwith the visit of the Prince of.Wales._ ' For some time past, it has been the custom of Opposition writers and speakers to state the- public debt at seventy millions of dollars. _In` general terms, we have repeatedly contradicted- the statement';, but we wereunable to give the exact gures. These the Finance Minister supplies; aml they s'how_that the unscrupulous opponents of the Government overstate the arnouutof the Public debt by nearly sixteen millions of dollars, in round numbers`. If the "magnitude of a lie could'.be-stated in` gures, this'won|d.be pre-peminenpt in the records of` falsehood.
