In informing bis committee of his decision he made a bitter personal attaok on Mc lieid, calling him brainless, and said that his polioy was calculated to carry desolation into all the branches of the publio service. Bis proposed reform of the Counoil would simply make that Chamber an instrument in the hands of profligate Ministers, and such a policy as proposed would degrade the institution, paralyse industries, and make the country unfit for any man of oharacter to live in. It was even ■worse than the French devolution, Sir Henry oontinned, svnd said he himself was j a king compared to Mr Reid, who with his low disposition pandered to the lowest class in tho country. Amongst othor iniquities Mr Koid had proßtituted the Press, which was no longer free and independent, and he (bir Henry) could not render any greater servioe to the country and the cause of union than in opposing such a public enemy as Mr Beid. He would enter the oontest an uncompromising enemy of the Premier and all his belongings, and if he died in the struggle hiß heart would bo torn with all kinds of pain. .
