Mr. Rritty:—

the Patriot and’ Ezamtnor have made in relerence to
the late Rifle Match ac the Government Range—the
ntlemen above mentioned give the whole eredit for
the improvement im this year’s Shooting over last year's
to Col, A. d, Douglas Smith, Now, Sir, thet’ great im-
ovement” that Co!, Smith says has taken place, will be
ound on investiyation—when the circumstances attend:
ing each year's shooting are taken into consideration—
to be more apparentthan real. Tn 1806 the competition
commenced the 4th of Ociober, and the weather was
so Wretehedly cold and disagreeable that the men Were
obliged to Gre with their overcoats on; there were
also -—~ Which makes. a very material cifaence —
tome 50 or 6) more competitors this year,—Ano-
ther very great consideration is the amount of practice
the men had this year to what they had last year, and
when it is recollected that previous to 1866 there had
been no Competition for 2 years, it is'a matter of doubi
whether last year’s shooting wis not, comparitively
speaking, the best of the two.—If Col, Smith had taken
pains to haye the Volunteers instructed according to
the rules and regulations of the [lythe School of Mus-
ketry, and the positions laid down strictly adheved to,
he might be entitled to some httle credit—but what
are the facts: Col. Smith inhis circular addressed to
Captains of Commanding Companies says, the Hythe
positions willbe strictly enforced; aud what do we see
on the ground, men coming to the front and putting
peli. “me in positions that an instructor from Hythe
would be amazed, as well as amused at, and not one
of those clownish or unmilitary positions were checked
by Col. Smith or any other officer in charge.

No, Sir; 1 don’t think Col. Smith is entitled to the
eredit for any improvement for this — shooting, and
if we wish to give honor to whom honor is due, 1 will

O'CONNELL’S BIRTH-DAY,

On looking over a late No. of the Dundalk Democrat,
an article with the above heading attracted our atten-
tion as woith reproducing. The Democrat remarks
that O'Connell used to say that ‘* Irishmen were prover-
bially ungrateful to their public men.” We will not
take upon ourselves to say that the remark is strictly
correct. We know, however, that many of their public
men have not treated the Irish people well, They have
sold the liberties of the country to the highest bidder,
and bartered away the rights of millions for their own
profit. They were teusted as patriots, and atter -strut-
ting their hour on the popular stage, they took the
bribe of the enemy and deserted the people.

O'Connell, however, was not one of those treacher-
ous Irishmen, for he was true and faithtul to the end.
But how many thought of him on his birth day? How
many of these fond slaves to an odious ascendancy,
and liberated from their fetters, recalled to their minds
the memory of his life-long labor in the cause! Let us
hope, for the honor of the Irish race, that they were
notfewin number, Some, looking back fora few
years, may think that O’Connell’s achievements were
not of great importauce; but had they seen filty or
sixty years ago, they would be ofa very different
opinion, and honor the memory of the great man who
infused a portion of his own mighty spirit into the sons
of an enslaved nation, and enabled them to win reli-
gious liberty, i

The people of Ireland should never forget the memory
of O'Connell, And if they were really and truly grate-
ful for his sevices, they would make it their business to
‘celebrate his birth day in a becommg: manner. This
practice would teach generation ‘after generation, as
Moses and Josua taught the Israelites of old, how
their fathers were in bondage, and how the wisdom
and patriotism of O'Connell rescued them from the ty-
‘ranny of théir enslavers,

“.. What was the condition of Ireland when O'Connell
stood up to advocate her cause, The Catholics were
-grovelling in the lowest state of slavery. Because they
»adhered.to the faith of their fathers, they were denied
the common rights of citizens. ‘They would not be
permitted to enter Parliament unless they swore that
‘the sacred ceremonies of their religion wero damnable

and idolatrous. No Catholic lawyer sould ascend to a
weaton the Bench. No Catholic possessed a seat in
aby of the corporations of Ireland. These bodies were
the hot beds of the ascendancy party, who plundered
-and insylted the Catholic people. Dundalk, Droghe-
da, Newry, Waterford, Cork, and in fact all.the im-
portant.towns of Ireland. were groaning beneath the
vilest oppression, A Catholic had no voice in man-
aging public affairs, all was dark as the hideous gloom
of slavery could make it. ‘

“Te was im the “midst of this state ot things that
O'Connell conimenced his labors, He proposed to ac-
complish for Treland what Grattan, Flood, Tone, Em-
met, and Lord Edward Fitzgerald had failed to win.

» When bis voice went forth to the people of Iveland,
_ galling on them to unite and Jiberate theic altars, the
_, enemies of freedom rose up to attack him. ‘They as-
sailed bis character, misrepresented his object, and
mdiculed bis pretensions. And when they could not ine

| timidate-him by slander and abuse, they conspired to |
‘take his Hifé. Bat worse than the audacity and malign-
ity of his foes was the timidity of hie friends, They
had seen so many failures, that they did not believe suc-
ible,,and they were slow to attend to
ret calls, as to awaken a slumbering

==

op with these obstacles he hail to confttint the
of the Irish and English Governments, The

sgrammatic form, & very absurd

| Waterford were the first counties that gayé a stunning
‘blow to the monster ofesondelll be ‘

From that time tilll the victory wa won, O'Connell's!
labors consisted in restraining the eurrent of popular
enthusiasm, Tho entire people were in motion, and
jin such a state of excitement that they. would have
rushed to the cannon’s mouth, and had he decided on
lmarshalling them in battle array, he had a torce at
his back that was more than sufficient to conquer the
‘British Empire, But although he repudiated war, he
‘kept his forces in an attitude which showed their physi-
ral power; and Wellington at leegth saw that he
should yield or encounter a civil war, He decided on
the peaceable course, and yielded Emancipation, and
thus the great Irishman steod victorious on his native
soil, The Church was liberated; the altars of the land
became free, antl Catholic Ireland was rescued from
ithe party who held her in chains for more than a cen-
tury, What that victory has produced in Ireland, and
in spreading the Catholic faith in England and Scot-
land, need not be stated at the present time, as its
fruits are obvious to every one who can see what is
passing around him. Butone of its grandest effects
was, that it casta spirit of civilization into England,
which was almost as dark as the Turkish Empire
befare Emancipation was achieved, To honor
the memory of this great man who won al! those
blessings is the duty of Irishmen; and in future the
Gih of August, his birth day, should be celebrated
with all that fervour inherent in the Irish heurt, and
with a feeling of gratitude worthy ef the nation for
which O'Connell labored during his life,

Tur St. John Confederate Orange papers contain a
letter, sad to be written by His Grace Archbishop
Connolly, against the Hon, Mr, Anglin—an Irish gen-
tleman of commanding abilities, of strict probity and
morals, and a most exemplary Catholic—who seeks the
representation of the County Gloucester, N. B,, for
the Dominion House of Commons. It was a relief to
us to find that the letter is pronounced a forgery by the
St. John F#reeman—concocted by his enemies in New
Brunswick to defeat his election, and the authorship of
which is principally attributed to a notoriously slippery
character named Mitchell, whose low and unworthy
trickery deprived New Brunswick of its political liberty,
We cannot believe that any gentleman would write
such a letter, much less a Catholic Archbishop, for we
must say that, in so short a space, we bave seldom
seen BO much malignity, falschood, and attempted
tyranny crammed. The spirit which ceuld dictate
such a letter must be vindictive and despotic in
the extreme, and is so foreign to the teachings of
Christianity that to attribute it to a Christian Catholic
Archbishop, 1s an oftence amounting, in our minds, to
impiety. But Confederate pletters the Dommion over
ard so unscrupulous to provide for themselves, that they
stop at nothing to accomplish their ends. They have
forged the name of Her Majesty before now, and it is
not surprising that a man whose honesty and morality
are not above suspicion, should forge that of arch-
bishop Connolly. It is to be hoped that Mr. Anghn’s
success will be all the more decided from the atrocious

him.

[COMMUNICATED, }

Ovn contemporaries the Examiner and the Islander
have, we venture to think, engaged in a very ill-timed
discussion on the land question, We should be inclined
to regard it as a hopeful feature in the prospect of set-
ling that long-vexed question, that a lady who has re-
cently become the possessor of several Townships,
comprising, it is supposed, about 80,000 acres of land,

instead of accepting the report of interested agents,
has, with praiseworthy boldness, crossed the Atlantic to
see for herself, and form her own opinions of the con-
dition and value of her property.

We entertain as sincere a desire to assist in super-
seding the Leasehold tenure, as our contemporary the
Examiner, bat we esteem it both discourteous and im-
politic to talk of coercing Proprietors, when this lady's
intentions with regard to the Estates are still unknown,
and, we believe we may add, before the Government 1s
in a position to tender payments incash, If it was de-
sired to influence Miss Sullivan's decision in this mat-
ter, many arguments might have been adduced more
cogent than threats of coercion, tenant leagues, or an-
nexation, These are words which, just now at least,
ought not to have fallen from our contemporary's pen,
words which wo are sure he will regret having used on
this particular occasion. If we possessed Misa Sulli-
van's ear, we would endeavor to show her some of the
risks attending the ownership of Township land, and to
explain the causes ot the dislike felt by nearly the
whole community to the leaschold tenure. We should
point out that the policy approved by the Representa-
tives of the people differs widely from that formerly
parsued, and which invariably met the reprobation of
the Imperial authopities, Now, the Government of this
Colony desires to purchase Proprietors’ lands on fair
terms, and this proposal seems to meet the decided ap-
proval of the Secretary of State. The British Govern-
ment declines to maintain a military force in this Co-
lony, and it would seem indeed a strange anomaly to
ask a free people to vy ly a military police to compel
submission to a system they cord/ally detest, and which
they are willing to put nr end to, by pledging their cre-
dit in payment of all just deinands, Singularly
enough, it appears that the same sort of remedy has
been suggested to remove Irish discontent. The ease
of Prince Edward Island is just a reproduction of that
of Ireland, on a smaller seale, and without its most
aggravated features. England feels the disgrace of
having a discontented Province, in close proximity, in a
state of chronic sedition, notto say rebellions the desire
of whose peop'e seems to be, to shake off theirallegiance
and escape to the United States, there to become the dead-
lest enemies of everything British, and not only so,
but to develop by their industry the resources, and in-
crease by their numbers the strength of her great
Transatlantic Rival. Here, in Prince Edward Island,
the Irish disease can scarcely be said to have become
cbronic, and it is with no little satisfaction that we find
a London paper gravely advising Capitalists to invest
their unemployed funds inthe purchase of Irish lands,
with a view to re-sell them at such an advance as would
jeonstitute & respectable profit, Mr. Bright, we think,
was the first person who rn the application of the
principle of purchase to irish grievance, the bon)
same . tact, = whieh our bao ye ne is od
ed, Tho ‘' Spectator” of Aagust 17, t treats the
Irish question, and we would candidly ask Proprietors
to lay well its words to heart. “*Sappose the British

difiicuity. It is quite eertain that sooner or later, and
probably very soon, we must make some grand effor:

been eversince the termination ofthe Reciprovity treaty.
Farmers generally commence with small means: when
they take land, they expect to make a living, and to
provide by degrees live stock and implements of hus-
bandry, farm buildings, dwelling house, and furniture.
These, no one will say, are unreasonable expectations,
in fact, they are what every Settler in America
confidently looks forward to, No doubt many
vicissitudes must be expected, and many years must
elapse before they can be accomplished, and it is from
a conviction of these facts—proved by experience to be
so—that every prudent man desires to spend his labor
and invest bis savings on a Freehold, and not a Leuse-
hold, farm, With a Frechold property, one constant
source of disquietude is prevented--bad seasons may
occur—sickness —death—or other dispensation may ar-
rest progress for years; but if there is no accumulating
rent, the farmer tvels himself safe. Such, we believe,
are some of the causes of the dislike felt by all classes
to the leasehold tenure, They may assume a somewhat
different aspect in the caso of independent men, who
have realized considerable wealth, but we abstain at
present from developing their view of the case, or illus-
trating the mb tie om which we consider incontrover-
tible, that the prosperity of the Colony has been retard-
ed, and its peace disturbed by the maintenance of this
relic of feudal times,

We are well aware that certain philanthropic
Proprietors may suggest that their tenants need fear
no eviction, or ether harsh treatment. But men who
design to spend the labor of their lives on a piece of
wilderness land desire better security than. benevolent
intentions, They know that towndlin may change own-
ers, When a very different state of things may sue-
ceed. For example, Lord Selkirk, who rightly, we
believe, enjoyed the reputation of being a considerate
landlord, sold one of the finest townships to the late
Mr. Douse, Acting on the principle of saying nothing
but good of the dead, we would simply point to the
different position Mr, Douse’s tenants are in, to what
they would have been, had his Lordship either kept
his estate himself, or sold it to the Government! After
all, self-interest is the hest argument which can be
used to induce a proprietor to sell his Estate. We
would suggest you lately resigned a vast amount of
arrears—which themselves spoke volumes ag to the fic-
titious value of your nominal rent-roll—you agreed to
accept fifteen years’ purchase of the rent of a farm when
tendered, and very likely you entertain grave doubts
as to whether a Reformed Parliament will support the
Proprietory system in this Colony. How mucli better,
then, to accept a reasonable sum, and be clear of all
these grievances, Self-interest, we repeat, is the true key
to open Proprietors’ hearts, and, therefore, we desire
to place In strong contrast--on the one hand—the com-
fort and convenience of 6 per cent, debentures payable
half-yearly in London—or cash in band if preferred—
on the other—Rents irrregularly paid—arrears accu-
mulating—-land taxes—Road assessments—~and Agi-
tation, not the less formidable, because based on rea-
son and justice.

The Queen's Printer, by sufferance, has been rather
radely awakened to a realization of his true pos'tion,
and, as a matter of course, the dirty, decrepit organ
which he controls savagely snapsatus. We can afford
to smile at his ludicrously affected airs of importance,

attempts which are being made to defeat and destroy) and leave to the decision of the “ general public,” as

we have before now, the relative merits and influence
of the organ and the Herald. We are glad to see him
so reticent in his last issue upon Confederation: for
although he promises not to deign to notice our unpre-
tending sheet in future, wecan assure him that when|
next the Queen's Printer compromises by his Confede-
ration mania, those who keep him in bread and butter, we
shall notice him, and, perhups, in such a way as to com-
