“ The Committee on ways and means agreed upon

opening of negotiations with the British go-)
vernment to ascertain what concessions Great |
Britain will make for the liberalization of the
treaties between Canada and the United States,
and which wiii cover all matters of commerce,
navigation and the fisheries. Mr. Seward in-
formed the committee that he would consider
the report aaple authority te open Degutia-
tions.” ;
Mr. Havthorne conceived that this would |

be a much more favorable result than Reci-|

procity with P. FE. Island alone.

The Hon. Mr. Cores bad the honor, some
years ago, to have taken an active part in
the matter of Reciprocity with the United
States The terms of a ‘Treaty were agreed
to by Great Britain and the United States,
and afterwards submitted to the respective |
Colonial Legislatures. This Island took the
initiative. A special Session of the Legisla-
ture was convened,—the termes of the Treaty
were approved of, and they all knew the ad-
ventagevus that had resulted therelrom, They
all knew also that it was the people of the
United States who abrogated that Treaty,
and they now saw that its provisions were
quite as advantages to them as they were to
us. He (Mr. Coles) concurred in ihe senti-|
ments expressed on this subject by the Hon.
Leader of the Government (Mr. Hensley)
and the Hon. Mr. Haythorne. The members |
of the iegislature might vhjeet to the word- |
ing of the Resolution before then: but he
(Mr. Coles) believed that in the main its prin-
ciples would be approved of. Allusion was
made therein to the coasting trade and a
registry fur our ebipping,— points op which |
tie Americans were very sensitive. One of
there points he (Mr Coles) formerly wished |
to insist upon , but he found that the ship |

Upon motion of Conneillor Beer—Ordered, That
a Wharfinger be appointed for Queen's Wharf, for
the remainder of the season; said person to be al- |
lowed for b4s services, lifteeu per cent on the grosa
ayreement to date from the first duy of
Seplember next

A ballot having taken place resnlted in the elec-
tion of Jose ph a Vippy, who was, therefore, de-
clared duly appointed Whartiuger for Queen's
Wiarf.

Upon motion—Ordered, That the superintenéence
of Pownal Street Wiarf continue under the Wharf
Committee for the remainder of the season

recenyta ;

Upon motion—Ordered, That John E MeLean,
be appointed Harber and Ballast Muster for the
Port of Charlottetown

Lise Wharfiuver aud Harkor Master having been
appommted, Councillor McNeill calted the attention
ot the Council to certain existing @betractions to
the Naviyation of the River, in immediate proxi-
mity to the wharfs. First, to the most serious
one occasioned by the wreck of an old craft, ** The
Conse "which, he said, had been lying im-
bedded in the wud for the last two or three years;
and which obstruction, unless speedily remoyed,
would, iu the end, eceasion, for its rectitication, a
heavy outlay to the city. There were, also, he
suid, two similar obstructions, oceasioued by the
wrecks of two old schoouers ; and he urged upon
the Couueil the propriety of giving instructions to
the Harbor Master to bave all the three wrecks
removed as speedily as possible, as delay in that
respect would, undoubtedly, not only tend to in
crease the obstructions caused by them bat would
to a certainty, render their removal more
difficult and expensive.

His Worship the Mayor, in reply to the remarks
of Counciller MeNeill, said that a- Harbour Master }
having now been appeinted—there had not been
one previously—he (His ss orship) would see that
that otficer did his duty with respect to ‘the ob-
atractions complained of; there was consequently no |
eecusion to make a motion to that effect. |

also,

Upon motion of Councillor Butecher—Resolved,
That a Committee of three be appointed to examine
into the City Accounts, and report whether the
method of keeping the same cau be improved, so as
to shew more clearly, at any time, the receipts from
each source of revenue.

Ordered, That the said Committee consists of

| Conueiilors Butcher, Laird and Peake.

Upon motion of Councillor MeNeill—Ordered,
That. for the time to come, the City Council have
etated regular mouthly meetings, to take place ou
the evening of the first Saturday of every sifeceed-
ivy month, at the hour of half-past seven; the next

| meeting to be held on Satarday, the oth of Septem

The Honorable James Yeo died at Port Till, on
Tuesday last, the 23th instant. The deceased
gentiewan was a native of Devonshire, Eaglaud,
and emigrated to this [sland about fifty years ago.
For many years Mr. Yeo was largely engaged in
Shipbudding and Mercantile pursuits. Lis ex-
traordinary industry, ability, and perseverance,
were amply rewarded, and he became one of the
wealthiest of our Merchants. In the year 1839,
| Mr Yeo was elected a Member of the Legislative

Assembly, and from that time, until his death— |

with the exception of a few years—he continued in
the Legislature, and was a member of several Go-
vernments. His public and private benevolence
will be long and gratefully remembered in the vi-
ecinity of his late residence. He dicd in the S$0:h
year of his age.—dsL.
