I have been honored with your (Pxcellency'« commands, rBqwWBj? my opinion " on titb legal coorse to be taken for erecting such Bb^s- tant Parishes as are mentioiwd in a report of a Committet^ Ip^^ whole Council upon Ecdeeiastical Aflairs, dated the f th June if^ as QMiiM,JmMMp wdl as for establiskiag a Parsonage or Ecclesiastical Benefice in fRch V Parish respectively." The Committee in their Repert have stated to your E» "that from the papers accompanying the order of reference they eeiye that your Excellency does not expect them to enter into the tail of a gmeral system, but to mggeet the most advisable meaoa^ forming such establishment as, from the aggr^ate of the Prot«eta^ population in different parts of the Province and the present^pply <€ Ministers of the Church to superintend them, may be found practicable.** And to attun this deel^ble object, they humbly apprehend that the two preliminary requisites are first, "the forming of swh a number of Protestant Pandit as, from the namber of Protestant inhabitants dwelling in the vicinity, shall be thought expedient; and, secondly, of' a Parsonage or Eodeeiastical Benefice in each of such Parishes." The general question, tberefore, which arises (mt of Hmf^ report is this; what is the \eiffX course to be taken for the EccleeiaRtical Divisioto of the Protestant See of Quebec into parishes, and for the erection of Redories therein according to the establishment of the Church of EngUnd." The points whn^ the question involvai are important, and although '4l have ultimately satisfied my own mind upon tliem, yet I submit my opinion to your ExceUency's consideration with great diflSdmce. By the 31st Geo. III. Chap. 31, it is enacted, « That it shall and may be lawful for his Hajeety, His Heirs and Sucoessors, to authorize the GoTenKMT c/t poson adininistering the Government, with the advice «f the Executive Council, to constitute and erect within every Town- dup or Parish whic^ now is or may be hereafter formed, constituted or flwictod, one or more Parsonage or Rectory or Parsonages or Recto- '»i Ca- ries, aooording to the esinblishttait of the Chiuch of Enghmd."

Viewing the conquest of'these Provinces from the domain of Francfr^ . by the united' «ertions of Qreat Britain and Ireland as one grwt advantage resulting from the union, we humbly conceive thatr the Churehes of England and Scotland had, after such conquest, equal. ■ rights as to the exercise and enjoyment of their respective religious privates therein, and an equal daim to enjoy any advantages or sup- port which might be derived from the newly aoquured territory^ By an Act passed in the 8 let year of the reign of iour Ilite rcveied Sovereign, whose memory will long live in otar hearts, ata appropriatioii is authorized to be macte of one-seVenth of the Lands of the Provinee for the support and maintenance of a Protestant Clergy in ttiis Province; ttnd under the general words, « a Protestant Clergy," used in that Act, your Majesty's subjects in this Provmee, who belong and are particu- larly attached to the Church of Scotland, fondly hoped that a provision had been made for the Clergy of that Church, as well as for those of the Church of England; and though the allotment of lands thus j authorized has hitherto been in a great measure unproductive, Uiey felt a d^i«e of confidence that it wotUd eventually afibrd a fair suppojrt to the Clergy of both Churches; the Lands reserved under the said Act being claimed and enjoyed exclusively for the support and maintenance • of the Clergy of the Church of EngUin^l in this Proyince. „ " We humbly entreat Yotur Majerty^s cbnsideration of the subject, and • ■ l^in tlie legal construction of the said Act, it is considered tint bo ]>iovision for the Clergy of the Church of Scotland was cotttempUted thereby, we would most respectfully and earnestly express to yowr Majesty,, oi^iiope that your Majesty will be gracioudy pWped to ttttend to them y6ur royal protection and consideration, by directing such provisioif to IxB made for their maintenance and snpport as to yoa Majesty may appear propeiy^ ^'\ / : V Thut your Mqesiy may long reign in the confidence and affection of aU your rabjedi^ to guard and secure their rights in every portio(t of yota Con PEI 81B, I the Ben the tied of acq VJ'I E3 Ml wl tn th< M of 1^--. :^^"'h^ '">;"<;- ''-M. f ' k^ ' 1 o i » r' ^ I -- W your widely «toiided donudM, is the jmyer of your ICajeaiy'ft &itbM ml>jee^ the CoiSnu>iii of Upp«r Canada.

To prevent any possible misooDfieption<^thejdews of His Majesty's Government, the draught of a Bill for the accomplishment of tliis design was transmitted to Lord Aylmer, with instructions jto give his assent, if such a law should be presented for his aiDceptance. To obviate the risk of offence being givm, by suggesting to the House of Aarambly the exact hnguage, as wen as the general scope of a measiu«»|to origil^te with them, Lord Ayhner was directed to pro- ceed with Ihe rnost caqtitNtiiJobs^^ and of att the c(»i^tatioiud f<»mB. Anticipating the contingency of the measure b«ng adopted in sub- stance^ but with variations in the terms, Lord Ripon further stated, that in that event the Bin was not to be rejected by the Governor, but was to be spedany reserved for the signification of His Majesty's pleasure. In obedience to these directions, the BiU was introduced into the Houseof Assembly, but did not pass into a law. That it would have X effectuaDy removed the grievance pointed out by the Canada Committee ^ has not been disputed, nor can the MinisterB of the Crown be held in ai|y sense responaible for the continuance ofan evH for which they had matured so complete a remedy.

JUthoogb, for the raMOoi to be iubieqaently ttated, I am compelled to think that the eraatioa and endomnent of the Bectoriea wa« not lAwM or valid meMuw, yet it would be mont foreign to n^ rod intention if I ihoald be rappoaed to eaat any doubt on the propriety of Sir John CWbome'a conduct in reference to them. That diatinguiahed oiBoer hM given too many proofc of hia devoted leal for Hia. Majesty's Mrvioe^ ai^for the good of the King's rabjecta^ to permit the admia. sion of even • annmae injuriooa to his public gpvni on this or any other occasion; and although I may difiw from him in opinion aa to the eipediency of establishing the Rectories especially at the mom«t chosen for that putpoae, yet I am oonvmoed that Sir John Colborne would ti readily w any inan acknowtodge OuA, opponte views of the public inteiwt, upon any particuhur. queation, may be «Qtortained by raea engiged in the same brancS of His Majesty's service without den^atii^ in Uie dightest degree from their mutual esteem and confidence. Indeed, in proportion to the strength of those feelings will usually be the fieedom with which such opposite views are avowed and discussed. On receiving your Despatch of the l7th December, it ^>peared to me very questird8 Aylmer and Goeford, to the general inatnretions accompanying them* to the corrat^ndence betwe^ this department and the Provincial Government, and to the minutea ^ the Executive Council of the 16th Janua^, 1886^ it appeared to me that no such sanction had ever been given. The grounds of this opinion you will learn from the accom- panying copy rfthe communication which I thought it necessary to addreaa to the King's Advocate and to the Attorney and Solicitor GenvaL The Law (MBcats of the Crown recdved that refoienoe on the 12th April, and reported to me their answer on the 8th ultimo.

Involving much of a religious diaracttf, it is approached with sentiments far more serious and deeply rooted than are brought to the discussion of ordinary political questions. Itia therefore with no groundless anxiety that Her Majesty's Government have long contemplated the unsettled state of this question, an anxiety which hB» been fully justified by the events of the last session in Upper Canada. On referring to the public journals, I find that the settlement of Uie Clergy Reserves engaged much of the attention of the Assembly of that Provence, and gave rise to discussiona of unusual length and animation. Th« intensity of the public feeUng on the sub- ject is attested by the large space devoted to the discusnon of it, no leia than by the direct evidence of many of the gentlan^^-'tfK^ve addressed me ; while the difficulty of devinng a final settlement oi the antagonist claims, and the ill consequences resoltiii^ fiom thdr oonti- nual agitation, have indlioed some uf those gentlemen eamesUy to iayoke the interposition of the Imperial Legislatore. Under these circumstances, you will readily understand my anxiety ' to contribute by all means in my power to an adjuatmeot of the ques- tion, and it has appeared to me that the experience acquired ki other of the British Colonies might, perhaps, be useful in suggesting to the Le- gislatures of Upper and Low* r Canada the arrangement of a meaaute which might be satisfactory to all partiea. In die Colony of New South Wides, a great deficiency existed in the means of religious instruo* tion, a deficiency which the unassisted efforts of the inhabttants would have been quite' inadequate to supply. To remedy this difficulty, Her Majesty's Government proposed a plan, the principles and detaib <^ which you will find fully explained in those piarta of the aooompMiying Pariiamentary paper, which reUte to a provision for the eradion at places of worship and the maintenance of mmiaterB in the Australian Colonies, and which have since been adopted and onbodied in a Legia- lative enactment passed by the -Governor and Council <^ New Sootfi Wales, and alao endoeed for your infonna^n. ' ' The circumstances of the Australian Colonjea differ so widely fiiom those of Canada, that it would be pUinly impossible to transfer to the latter oountiy the entire system which has been adopted with aoooMi in the former. Nor should I venture to prescribe to the Lepabtures of the Canadian Provinoea the principles on which they ahoold endeft> Tour to make provision for the religioua wants of tbair MoW'-eBJOBJata.

The ezcluaion of these oommnnitieB frran the benefit <^ a public proviaiod' made for re^'ons purpows would be quite inconsistent with the design of Her Migesty's Goremment It is^ on the contrary, their anxious wiish that to all sudi Chiwtian ocmtmnnitiea assistMioe diould be afforded, in proportion to jheir numben and to their necessities. To the maintenance of the actual ministen of thfli. Churches of England and SootUoid in their existing emduments, the foith of Her Migesty's Govemm«)t is, as you are aware, distinctly pledged; but should any arrangement be hereaftw concluded with the Legislatures of Upper and Lower Canada for the ocbsion to them of the Crown Revenues, there would be at the disposal of the LegisIaturB frodk that fund, abd from the other sources of revenue, ample means of pro- viding for the erection of places of worship^ and the saUrieB of ministen throughout the provinces. ^ '% I have^ A&t OLENELa EXTRACT OF A DESPATCH FROM SHI F.

How &r the view originally taken 61 that subject by the Law Officers of the Crown may be alterod whra they shall have maturely considered the explanations which have recently for the first time reached me^ as to ;, the grounds on which the Lieutenant Governor and Executivo Council really proceeded, I am at present unable to state. In the meantinie^ however, before I can receive their Report, I think it right to acquaint you with the view which I i^ present enteitein of the oonrse which it may be desirable to pursue witll^refer«noe to this subject The House of Assembly of Upper Canada, as appeara fnm their Journals of the 9th February, 1887, adopted a series of Resdutbna relative to these Endowmenti^ of wluch the sixth dedared, "That this ' House regards as inviolaUe the tights acquired under the patents by which Rectories have been endowed, and cannot, therefore^ cother invite <» sanction any interference with the ri^ts thus established."
