Iply to that request were given simply on the result of a pall of the members, It is barely possible, we should think, that there might be a majority of votes against the new law. That would in one sense be an expression of opinion, but of course it would be an opinion entirely unsupported by reasons, and considering the composition of tho Chamber, we hardly think that this would help His Excellency much. But- whether the majority would be for or against the Ordinance, clearly the best way of expressing the opinion of the
discussion, and the credit of proposing that course, rests with the supporters of the Ordinance. For discussion, how- ever, bo Anti-Shure. Bill members of the Chamber showed. that they had no liking. They would vote against the Or- dinance, but they must not be asked why. Such, at least, appears to be their atti- tude from what took place at the meet- ing of the Chamber on Wednesday last. Why should an adjournment be neces sary in order to obtain detailed inform ation as the working of the Ordinance The mensare has been in terve for only year; a fortnight's notice had been given of the meeting at which the results of the working of the new law were to be discussed, and con sidering the present condition of business on the share market it is hard- ly reseruable to suppose, so far as the meters of the Sharebrokere' Associa Are concerned, that they could not find enough spare time in the fortnight to prepare the detailed information which, we are left to infery will de-

of this Ordinance. We are not at all surprised at the continued and simmet · unanimous opposition of sharebrokers as a body. It undoubtedly puts a restriction, if not a complete check, which it would be possible for them to upon é certain class of transactions from derive profit; and the world has not yet arrived at that millennial height of commercial morality which would lead us to expect inam to sacrifice a pecuni ary advantage for the sake of the public good. But it is only on the as- Rumption that the colony wxists chiefly possible to agree with them in the for their benefit that it would be view they take of this Ordinance. Kat
We do not know for what reason or with what object the Chamber of Com merce was asked by the Governor to express its opinion on the working of the Ordinance, but we should not suppose for a moment that His Ex- cellency had it in contemplation to interfere in any way with the law ra galating the sale of shares unless for reasons of the most substantial. kind. As such reasons do not exist we may assed that the discussion is practical- ly at an end-notwithstanding that the only decision arrived at by the Cham- ter of Commerce un Wednesday last was the decision to adjourn the meet- ing The supporters of the Ordinance bad nothing to answer. They had to confine themselves mainly to u resspi tulation of the old arguments, which they were able to strengthen, however, from the experience of the working of the monaure, short as it has been.
There was one feature in the conelee sad pointed speech of Mr Bell-Irving, which, although not. bearing directly on the merits of the question at issue must have been listened to with considerabis interest We.refer to his thorough and unqualified, re- pudiation, on behalf of the original pro- motor of the bill, of certain insinuations made by Mr. Mackintosh in s pro- sidential address at last unqual meet- ing of the Chamber.
