Sin,âRecently, I, in. company with two other
gentlemen, Yad the ple oar ol Paving a tour through
the Western districts of Prince County. We arrived,
on the evening of the 4th inst., at the extensive,
opulent and beautiful settlement of Kildare, wheve},
we, from the noble hospitality evinced by its inhabi-
tants, were induced to spend that night. The evening
was happily spent in pleasantly conversing with our
kind friends, in viewing the rich scenery of the place,
and in joyously anticipating the pleasures of our ex-
cursion further westward the next day. On the return
of morning. it was, therefore, with much satisfaction
we beheld the serene aspect of, the heavens, which
favorably indicated the realization of our hopes; we,
therefore, made arrangements for the prosecution of
our excursion. Having furnished ourselves with guns
afd ammunition, and otherwise prepared to go ta
shooting,â we, for some distance, proceeded along the
sea hort, from which we had a commanding view of
the expansive St. Lawrence, and thé namberless
fishing vessels that mujestically glided over its geritly
undulating bosom. Among this fleet we were able,
from special marks, to reeognize many vessels belong-
ing to this Island, which coe eho us with & hope that

THE PUBLIC DEBT.
| ee
Nornixna can be of greater moment. to a country
debts; for, once established, they seldom become
diminishedâby honest means, at least.â
stance in which we know this to have been effected, is
in the much-abused Republic of the United Statds, after
the War of 1812; atid we have no doubt that, with âa
twenty yearsâ peace, the present enormous debt of that
free country will be wiped out by every cent of it being
bonestly liquidated.) But the effects of a large public
debt in the United States, as well as in England, and
other European countries, ts, that the necessaries of life
are so heavily taxed ag not only to keep @ majority of
the people in poverty, bat alinost to deprive the poor of
the means of livelihood, and to take away from them
the hope of ever attaining to independence. For these
reasons, wo beg to direct the attention of the people of
this Colony to the enormous proportions which its pub-
lie debt has assumed within the past seven years. The
great objections raised by the Conservatives in 1858
against the Liberals, was the large debt of ÂŁ39,847
10s. 24d,, which they had saddled upon the country dur-
ing their tenure of office, Loud and long were the de-
nunciations directed against the Government of the
day, for that debt, and the rujn which it was going to en
tail upon the country. About.onq-half of that amount
was, however, incurred in purchasing proprietary estates,
and the balance of over ÂŁ29,000 was left as an heir-loom
by the Old Compact Government, Nevertheless, 90
fierce was the outcry raised against the Liberals for the
increase in the public debt to nearly. ÂŁ40,000, thar they
went down before the storm of popular dissatisfaction
Now, if the Libavals forfeited public confidence in 1858,
in consequence of their financial operations and their
land: speculations, surely the existing Government. have
doubly forfeited. that confidence. By the Pablie âAc:
last sitting, the public debt as therein stated. consisted
of a balanceâ against the Colony on the 31st of January,
1866, of ÂŁ74,640 Os. 14d. Tn considering this debt, it
must be borne in, mind that it has been swelled to
these proportions notwithstanding the fact that. the re-
venue of the Colony has been vastly ingreased by the
ad valorem duties baving been advanced from 64 to 10
per cent, while specific duties have been. increased: in
like proportion. Thus, the duty on âTea hasâ been in-
on with other artidles of general consumption. âTo
crown all, last session a duty of Is, 6d) Acbartel! was
»leeed upon flour, merelyâ to serve âthe Canadians:
Yhile the revenue has been thus largely increased by
additional taxation upon what may be termed the ne-
cessaries of life, and also by the | receipt of thousands 0 ol
pounds from gales of Lands om the Worrell and Lot, ft
Estates, the Expenditure for the, Public Services, such,
ifor instance, as reducing the salaries, of âTeachers âto
nearly a jtarvation standard, has been much. curtailed.
In considering duties, Loo, we may here remark, in pass-
ning, that although, artigles of general consumption
have been Neavily taxed by the Conservative Govern-
ment, yet the dyties upon the luxuries _ enjoyed by the
aristocracy, âsuch as wines, ete,, baye been materially re-
duced. Now, with reference to the moneys. received|
from the Estates above. named, we think they ought not
he/}to be included in the revenue proper of the Colony, and
instead of being exponded for general: purposes, they

: ~ Yours'y rery respectfully. we IMPORTANT RUMOR,
Oatoben§, A966!) vovig ry! ! A Wx have heard it ramored about that the Legislature
is to be called forthwith, to âgubmilt @ proposition from
Her Majesty's Colonial Minister concerning Confedera+
tion. dt is hinted that'a sum of ÂŁ250,000 cy., will be
placed ot the disposal of the Colony by the Confederate
rumor, but should there bu any foundation for it, and
the proposition be submitted to the pegple for their con-
yy, [Sider stion, it will, ho doubt; be thotoughly canvassed
b_.ore being âaccepted.
Since writing the foregoing, we learn from reliable
correct,â and that theâ Legistature will beâ convened
immediately to consider this important proposition,
Before, however, any, decisive action is taken by the
Legislature, we crust the niatter will be submitted to the
people at the polls for their decision. As they are
most immediately interested, and will be moat effected
by. it, they alone should have the power to deeide it.
A dissolution of the Legislature upon the Despatch em-
bodying the proposition which was received by the last
English mail, should be the first step taken by His Ex.
jeellency the Lieutenant Governor and his advisers, as
the people's rights and liberties are too sacred and iin-
portant to be legislated away by a few men whose
tenure of office is on the eve of expiring. We have
suflicient confidence, however, ina majority of the Le-
than its public debt, The historical axiom, that revolu-/gislature that they will do nothing rashly, and, above
tions neyer go backwards, is, equally true of nationallall, that they will abstain from following in the footsteps
lof the Logistature of Nova Scotia, by appointing Dele-
âThe only in-/gates with unlimited powers to change the constitation:
of the country without the consent of the people. When
the proposition comes to be placed officially before the
public, as'we presume it will be in this week's Royal
Gazelle, we shall be better prepared to offer an opinion
upon it, Inthe meantime, we think the anti-Conted.
erates have reason to congratulate themselves upon
their opposition to the Quebec Scheme, for had they ad-
opted the advice of Messrs, Gray, Pope, Whelan,
Haviland and Green, this offer never would have beéén
made to the Colony. âThese gentlemen haying,: âby their
votes, declared the Quedec Scheme to be just and equit-
able, and even liberal, to Prince Edward Island, ought
--to be consistentâto oppose this new basis of Confed-
eration; but whatever consistency may Fequire of them,| |
we have no bg they will be the noisiest in their ex-
ultations over the Colonial Minister's despateb, \At all
events, we think the time has now arrived when this
Colony must state the terms upon which it will consent
to enter the proposed Confederacy. The British Goy-
x abamaig is apparently determined upon the scheme, for
reasons that Mr, Howe's able pamphlet. has. rendered |,
too obvious, and it may be better for us to make mg

a change of Ministry may takeâ place âin England; and
of this fact we may yest assured, that with the return ol
Mr. Cardwell to the Colonial office, the danger of being
forced into Confederationâterms or no termsâis in-
creased a hundred fold. In offering these remarks, how-
ever, we by no means think that ÂŁ250,000 would sufli-
counts of last year, laid before the Legislature at its! ciently gild the Quebec pill to make it palatable to this
Colonyâand, indeed, to confess the honest trath, we
have our own sospicions that the whole circumstances

equivalent to aboat ÂŁ3 per head of the populationâa

ningly devised plan of the Confederates to rear a plat-

on the evening of the 4th inst., at the extensive,
opulent and beautiful settlement of Kildare, wheve},
we, from the noble hospitality evinced by its inhabi-
tants, were induced to spend that night. The evening
was happily spent in pleasantly conversing with our
kind friends, in viewing the rich scenery of the place,
and in joyously anticipating the pleasures of our ex-
cursion further westward the next day. On the return
of morning. it was, therefore, with much satisfaction
we beheld the serene aspect of, the heavens, which
favorably indicated the realization of our hopes; we,
therefore, made arrangements for the prosecution of

afd ammunition, and otherwise prepared to go ta
shooting,â we, for some distance, proceeded along the
sea hort, from which we had a commanding view of
the expansive St. Lawrence, and thé namberless
fishing vessels that mujestically glided over its geritly
undulating bosom. Among this fleet we were able,
from special marks, to reeognize many vessels belong-
ing to this Island, which coe eho us with & hope that

THE PUBLIC DEBT.
| ee
Nornixna can be of greater moment. to a country
debts; for, once established, they seldom become
diminishedâby honest means, at least.â
stance in which we know this to have been effected, is
in the much-abused Republic of the United Statds, after
the War of 1812; atid we have no doubt that, with âa
twenty yearsâ peace, the present enormous debt of that
free country will be wiped out by every cent of it being
bonestly liquidated.) But the effects of a large public
debt in the United States, as well as in England, and
other European countries, ts, that the necessaries of life
are so heavily taxed ag not only to keep @ majority of
the people in poverty, bat alinost to deprive the poor of
the means of livelihood, and to take away from them
the hope of ever attaining to independence. For these
reasons, wo beg to direct the attention of the people of
this Colony to the enormous proportions which its pub-
lie debt has assumed within the past seven years. The
great objections raised by the Conservatives in 1858
against the Liberals, was the large debt of ÂŁ39,847
10s. 24d,, which they had saddled upon the country dur-
ing their tenure of office, Loud and long were the de-
nunciations directed against the Government of the
day, for that debt, and the rujn which it was going to en
tail upon the country. About.onq-half of that amount
was, however, incurred in purchasing proprietary estates,
and the balance of over ÂŁ29,000 was left as an heir-loom
by the Old Compact Government, Nevertheless, 90
fierce was the outcry raised against the Liberals for the
increase in the public debt to nearly. ÂŁ40,000, thar they
went down before the storm of popular dissatisfaction
Now, if the Libavals forfeited public confidence in 1858,
in consequence of their financial operations and their
land: speculations, surely the existing Government. have
doubly forfeited. that confidence. By the Pablie âAc:
last sitting, the public debt as therein stated. consisted
of a balanceâ against the Colony on the 31st of January,
1866, of ÂŁ74,640 Os. 14d. Tn considering this debt, it
must be borne in, mind that it has been swelled to
these proportions notwithstanding the fact that. the re-
venue of the Colony has been vastly ingreased by the
ad valorem duties baving been advanced from 64 to 10
per cent, while specific duties have been. increased: in
like proportion. Thus, the duty on âTea hasâ been in-
on with other artidles of general consumption. âTo
crown all, last session a duty of Is, 6d) Acbartel! was
»leeed upon flour, merelyâ to serve âthe Canadians:
Yhile the revenue has been thus largely increased by
additional taxation upon what may be termed the ne-
cessaries of life, and also by the | receipt of thousands 0 ol
pounds from gales of Lands om the Worrell and Lot, ft
Estates, the Expenditure for the, Public Services, such,
ifor instance, as reducing the salaries, of âTeachers âto
nearly a jtarvation standard, has been much. curtailed.
In considering duties, Loo, we may here remark, in pass-
ning, that although, artigles of general consumption
have been Neavily taxed by the Conservative Govern-
ment, yet the dyties upon the luxuries _ enjoyed by the
aristocracy, âsuch as wines, ete,, baye been materially re-
duced. Now, with reference to the moneys. received|
from the Estates above. named, we think they ought not
he/}to be included in the revenue proper of the Colony, and
instead of being exponded for general: purposes, they

Oatoben§, A966!) vovig ry! ! A Wx have heard it ramored about that the Legislature
is to be called forthwith, to âgubmilt @ proposition from
Her Majesty's Colonial Minister concerning Confedera+
tion. dt is hinted that'a sum of ÂŁ250,000 cy., will be
placed ot the disposal of the Colony by the Confederate
rumor, but should there bu any foundation for it, and
the proposition be submitted to the pegple for their con-
yy, [Sider stion, it will, ho doubt; be thotoughly canvassed
b_.ore being âaccepted.
Since writing the foregoing, we learn from reliable
correct,â and that theâ Legistature will beâ convened
immediately to consider this important proposition,
Before, however, any, decisive action is taken by the
Legislature, we crust the niatter will be submitted to the
people at the polls for their decision. As they are
most immediately interested, and will be moat effected
by. it, they alone should have the power to deeide it.
A dissolution of the Legislature upon the Despatch em-
bodying the proposition which was received by the last
English mail, should be the first step taken by His Ex.
jeellency the Lieutenant Governor and his advisers, as
the people's rights and liberties are too sacred and iin-
portant to be legislated away by a few men whose
tenure of office is on the eve of expiring. We have
suflicient confidence, however, ina majority of the Le-
than its public debt, The historical axiom, that revolu-/gislature that they will do nothing rashly, and, above
tions neyer go backwards, is, equally true of nationallall, that they will abstain from following in the footsteps
lof the Logistature of Nova Scotia, by appointing Dele-
âThe only in-/gates with unlimited powers to change the constitation:
of the country without the consent of the people. When
the proposition comes to be placed officially before the
public, as'we presume it will be in this week's Royal
Gazelle, we shall be better prepared to offer an opinion
upon it, Inthe meantime, we think the anti-Conted.
erates have reason to congratulate themselves upon
their opposition to the Quebec Scheme, for had they ad-
opted the advice of Messrs, Gray, Pope, Whelan,
Haviland and Green, this offer never would have beéén
made to the Colony. âThese gentlemen haying,: âby their
votes, declared the Quedec Scheme to be just and equit-
able, and even liberal, to Prince Edward Island, ought
--to be consistentâto oppose this new basis of Confed-
eration; but whatever consistency may Fequire of them,| |
we have no bg they will be the noisiest in their ex-
ultations over the Colonial Minister's despateb, \At all
events, we think the time has now arrived when this
Colony must state the terms upon which it will consent
to enter the proposed Confederacy. The British Goy-
x abamaig is apparently determined upon the scheme, for
reasons that Mr, Howe's able pamphlet. has. rendered |,
too obvious, and it may be better for us to make mg
jest terms we cen now, whilst a gentleman is in the Co-
onial Office, who as friendly to the Provinces, and who
desirous of sevuring to this Island the verybest terms
t can possibly be obtained. We know not how soon|?
a change of Ministry may takeâ place âin England; and
of this fact we may yest assured, that with the return ol
Mr. Cardwell to the Colonial office, the danger of being
forced into Confederationâterms or no termsâis in-
creased a hundred fold. In offering these remarks, how-
ever, we by no means think that ÂŁ250,000 would sufli-
counts of last year, laid before the Legislature at its! ciently gild the Quebec pill to make it palatable to this
Colonyâand, indeed, to confess the honest trath, we
have our own sospicions that the whole circumstances
connected with the bribe now held out, and which is
equivalent to aboat ÂŁ3 per head of the populationâa
sam infinitely less than would buy âa niggerâis' a cun-
ningly devised plan of the Confederates to rear a plat-
form for themselves in view of the coming electionsâin
fact, a mere electioneering dodge to delude. and betray
the people; but âbefore proceeding to state what Wwe
