 tdi-^In ord<*r to prove, that tlie Kirk of Sdot- 
 lahd is as much the established Church in Cantwla, 
 as is the established Church of England, the Kct 
 of Union of England, and Scotland is quoted,

 3d. — ^To show that the Clergy of the establish-* 
 ed Churcl^ of England, have no exclusive right, 
 to the Clergy Reserves In Canada, the Act of th^ 
 Imperial Parliament, 31st Geo. 3d. chap. 31, is 
 cited, by which it appears, that these reseh^es were 
 specially set apart for the endowment of Rectories, 
 and Parsonages, to which, Clergynten of the. 
 Church of England, can alone be appointed, andii.. 
 Hiat the King himself, is distinctly prohibited^ hf

 Pitt, the avowed author of the BiU, and conse-

 sum, arising irom Ae tythes for Lands or posses-

 8th.— Because the Clergy of the Kirk of Scot- 
 land, are siud to btf, not specially excluded from a 
 share of the Clergy Reierveft, it is contended that 
 they must be considered as included, among those, 
 for whoic benefit they are set apart. ^ 
 
 Oth:^--AWiough it 18 shewn to be enacted, that 
 Uie appropriation of the Reserves, to the exclusiy^ 
 use, Oif such of the Clergy of the eBtablished Church 
 of England, as are presented to Parsonagies or 
 
 . Rectories, cannot be changed, by any Act of ^e 
 Colonial Legislature, even with the assent of the 
 King, if di8appro|i(Bd of by either House of Par- 
 
 > lianient, it ts contended, th^ the Clergy of the 
 Church of Engfed, have no exclusive right, to the 
 revenues arinng from them. 
 
 lOdi.— It bemg enacted by the 4tharticle of the 
 Union of England and Scotland, that all the sub- 
 jects oT the United Kingdom of Great Britwn, 
 sbali from and after the said Union, enjoy a com^ 
 municadon, oC all rights, and privileges, and

 Kingdoni, and the dominioM and j^antatioiM

 contended, that the Clergy of the Kirk of ScotP 
 land,have a UrthHght claim, to a^art of the profit 
 of the Clergy Reserves in Canada, although it
