On reconsideration of the Order-in-iCouncil of the 30 June last, authorising 

 the admission free of duty of a certain amount of Copper Coinage by the 

 Bank of Montreal. — 



The Committee perceive that the permission formerly granted to the Bank 

 of Montreal expired on the 1 January last, and that in consequen.ce they 

 require an extension of the said permission in order to take advantage of 

 the Order-in-Council of the 30 June last. 



Wherefore the Committee recommend to Tour Excellency's approval the 

 draft of the Instrument required to that effect, prepared by the Law Officer 

 of the Crown, dated 2S June, 1845.
