Mr Reeves said as this was piobably the last occasion upon which he would have anoppoitonily of odressuig the present House, he desired to make a few remarks upon a subject which requited some explanation. Government had gone to a great deal of tiouble and expense, with the view of remodelling the Civil Service.
