Excerpt from The Speeches and Public Letters of Joseph Howe (Based Upon Mr. Annand's Edition of 1858), Vol. 2 of 2: 1849-1873 The Civil List was another vexed question. In transmitting the bill, passed at the last session, a despatch was forwarded with it, which conveyed to the Colonial Secretary, for the first time, the real sentiments of this country. Voluminous protests against the bill were forwarded with this despatch, and encumber the journals. They were answered by a minute of Council, also transmitted. The result of the thorough sifting which the whole subject received, was the final settlement, with some modifications of the bill suggested by the Colonial Secretary, of questions which had been variously agitated for fifteen years. There were sharp debates on these measures, in which Mr. Howe had his share; but the topics were hackneyed, and his views are expressed with more precision in the document above referred to than in any speeches which are reported. The new commission of the peace formed a fruitful subject of complaint to the Opposition during this session. It was defended by Mr. Howe in one of his ablest, most varied, and humorous speeches. It was justified by the House, which on motion of Mr. Henry passed the following resolutions. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
