NORTH-WEST COMMISSIONERS'
REPORT
Some Bills from the Senate were forwarded a
stage, and in reply to
Mr. Mackenzie.
Hon. Sir John A. Macdonald said the report
of the Commissioners to the North-West had
been printed and placed in the hands of the
Government, who had intended to bring it
down to-day; but they had been so pressed for
time that they had not yet been able to read it;
some portions of them, it would be obvious,
could not with due regard to the public interests, be placed before the House. The
other
parts he expected to bring down tomorrow.
The House adjourned at 10:50 p.m., till 7:30
p.m. tomorrow.
