We have ‘uot alluded very particularly
to the cost of macadamizing, because that
depends on a variety of eireumstances,
one of which is the cost of stone, The
price we have named is from two to four
shillings per ton, and it would not be very
wise to announce that the Government

I observed this very morning the difler-

of town, and other parts which have not

__ the advantages of goort roads; but it can-
not be expected that Such ‘an outlay as
would be required to put our roads in

much mistaken, I am told that this Re-

i believe the stggestions contained jn it
uM are practicable, and any person of moder-
ate ability could carry them out if an
Act were passed. The plans we have
suggested are also, in my opinion, adap-
ted to the circumstances of the Colony.
The Report is before the House for some
time, and of course, your honors have
made up your minds respecting it.

Hon. Mr. Pauwer: Wis honor who
has just sat down says he has been told
that the time of the Committee has been

' wasted in preparing this Report, but
your honors, I am none of those who are
of that opinion, aud I trust few are. 1

_ hope that at no distant day the sugyes-
- tions they have made will be brought in-

question is, how soon will we be able to
avail ourselves- of the suggestions they
have made? I have always been an ad-
vocate for putting and keeping our roads
io as thorough a state of repair as pos-
sible, for there are few ways in which
we cau so much advance the interests of
our agriculturalists as to facilitate their
means of getting their produce to market.
Though Tam vot an agriculturalist, yet I
can very well understand, that raising

uce is one thing and getting it to
market is another, A farmer, afier he

must see that to carry out that system,
so as to be a general benefit to the Is-

and that shows us that we must have re-
course to some other means of effecting
our purpose. Therefore, it has always
been un idea of mive, that we must fall
back upon the use of such materials as
we have, and if we have not the best
quality, we must use the nearest to it,
that is, our Istand sand stone. If large
sums of money are to be expended, I
thiok the Colony would derive as much
benefit from the nse of the Island stone
as from imported stone; for if we could
get five or six miles done with our com-
mou sand stone at the same expense as
ove mile, or half a mile, with imported
stone, [ think it must be seen, that by
using the Island stone, we would be cou-
ferring the greatest Senefit upon the
greatest number of people. At thesame
time, I would have uo hesitation in
giving my vote for importing stone to
to Macadamize the great thoroughfares
in the vicivity of the principal marts of
business in the Island, which would
be a great benefit to those shipping pro-
duce. That is matter of necessity;
and I fully concur in the opinion that a
stone-breaker would be a great advan-
tage. Ihave vo doubt but tlie stone-
breaker is well adupted to work of that
kind, aud perhaps to import one would
be the most economical meavs we could
employ, where labor is so scarce. I ac-
cede to the importation of both the erush-
er aud steam engine, and 1 think the
Legislature should, without loss of time,
provide means for importing a machine
of that kind, Tam sorry that the pre-
sent session should pass without that
being done. The expense would not be
very great, aud Ido not know that we
are called upon for any special expendi-
ture this year.

were decided that the roads throughout

| ing roads, shows that the plan succeeds

Therefore, Ithink there is nothing to
which the attention of the Legislature can
be more properly applied than devising
ways and means to put our roads in a
thoroughly efficient state. It recalls a
common quotation to my mind, that he
who by his science or skill * makes
three blades of grass grow where only
one grew before, is a bevefactor to man-
kind,” and I would say that he who cao
enable a farmer to take his half ton
weight of produce to market in three
hours, which formerly occupied nine,
confer a similar bevefits upon the Colony.
But, in order to make good roads, two
things are required, science and means,
or money. Now, the science of road-
making, as applied to this Island, is not,
in any way, different from that
its application in Great Britian, and J
- am thoroughly convinced, as I am sure
your honors must be, that onr roads can
only be put ina ft state for the thorongh-
fare of vehicles of burden, by placing
| proper material upon them. A_ person
who is com to superintend the
making of good roads in Great Britain
would, of course, be calculated 10 do
the same here. In most parts of Great
| Britain they have either hard stone or
abundance of gravel, but our soil is of
such a light and yielding nature, that it
ires a greater amount of hard ma-
» terial to se been roads, Pi td
suggested by the Committee, Mac-
Peoiieiee, is not new tothe world. It
has been in use the Lest part of a ceutury
in the Old Country, where it is found to
be the best of all plans, and there cannot
be any difierence of opinion as to the
mode or manner of making roads in ap-
ng the Macadamizing system. But
_ the great desideratum is, how is the Col-
ony to raiee means to carry that system
junto operation to a sufficientextent for the
| eountry to feel the benefit of it at an early
. By the calculations the cone
| mitice have made, we eve that the cost

we could form a
of what it would

way staad the extreme frost of this
country very well, and therefore, J. do
not see any reason why the recommen-
dation of the Committee, ia that particu-
lar, should vot be taken up and acted
upon. At the same time,I do not con-
our in the idea of borrowing large sums
of money npon interest, for this service.
It is not what I would be hasty to re-
commend, Our revenue is limited, and
though it is
we do uot look forward to any
creave. We expect that it will merely
proceed in the same ratio as it has done
for some years past. ‘Therefore, I do
not think it would be prudent. to involve
the country in a large amount of debt for
the purpose of laying out the money upon
the roads. It is for this reason I regret
to find that so little attention is. paid iv
the report to the necessity of using such
material ng we have in the Island in the
Macadamization ot our roads, In the
summer many farmers have not a great
deal of employment, and’ some spare
| hands could be engaged iv collecting
stone and hauling it to where it is most
required, If some system of that kind
were adopted, the country would much
soover reap the benefit of it, and it would
be much more satisfatory thav to wait
till we would have the means of import-
ing stone, J do not under-value import-
ed stone, for I know it is mueh more du-
rable, and ifonce well put on, it would
last for ages; but when we make caleu-

the additional cost of getting it to a dis-
taneo where the people would expect a
a proportion of the expenditure of the
public revenne, as well as those near
town. Tthink we must not place too
much dependence on any prospective
chances of having our roads made iv that
way. It therefore becomes ua not to
lose sight of the next pest materials that
ean be obtained. Iam always prepared,
while I hold a seat in the Legislature,
whether I am ia the Government or
not, to support any feasible plan to im.
prove our roads, at the least possible ex.
pense, and tnereby afford to our far-
mers those facilities of which they stand
in such vast need.

Moo. Mr. Berr: This is a very im-
portant subject to the Island in BP p-v0se
not only to the farmers, but to all clasgew
who have to travel to purchase their ig
we or for any other purpose, It is

ighly necessary that the produce of the

country shoald be brought to the ship-

lations, not only of the first cost, but of

ping places at as little expense as pos-
sible. My hon. colleague (Mr. Hay-
thorne ) who was a member of the Com-
mittee, has referred to nearly every
point in the Report, and it is therefore,
innecessary for me to detain your honors
by any particalar explanations of it; >T
may say, however, that the labors of the
Committee were very great in gathering
up information from various sources.
They worked very assiduously, more
particularly my hon. colleague who sue-
ceeded in obtaining a large amount of
information. Ocher members of the
Cominittee were not idle, and the iofor-
mation we received from the Old Coun-
try, particularly with respect to Blake’s
Stone Breaker, was very satisfactory. I
hope that suggestion of the Committee
will be adopted and acted upon, Some-
thing was said with respect to the cost
of stone imported from the neighbeuring
Colonies, I have imported some thou-
sands of tons, principally Pugwash lime-
stone, and the price I have generally
paid, that is for freight, is about 48. per
ton. I believe a large quantity can be
purchased here for considerable less than
that price. Large quantities have been
brought here during the last. few years
as ballast, and it has been sold at 2s, 6.
per ton, 3s. is considered a high price
for it. If parties coming here with ves-
sels from Canso, or other places in the
neighboring Colonies looking for freight,
were informed that we would purchase
any quantity of stone from them, they
would probably load their vessels and
would get immense quantities brought to
our Ports, where those vessels come !ook-
iug for freights.’ Ibelieve we could get
it for just about the same price as we
could get the Is'and stone. that is, deliv-
ered here in Town and other places
where traffic coucentrates, It must be
admitted by all persons that one ton of
good hard stone is worth as much as two
or three toas of Island stone. I behreve
our roads near the shipping Vorts, pro-
viding the stone is Mo by a machine,
could $e Macadamized ata cost of not
more than £500 per mile; while, what
we have done with the stove broken by
hand, has cost at the rate of £900. 1
think we are quite safe in saying that it
would not cost more than that to do three
or four miles from the place where the
stone is Janded, and therefore, I tkiuk
the caleulations of his honor from the
City, (Mr. Palmer,) are far in excess of
what it would cost. ‘There is necessity
for breaking the stones smaller than they
were broken on the road which cost at
the rate of £900 per mile. They should
not be more than an inch and a half in
diameter, instead of three inches, as they
were upon that road. The advantages
of good roads must be admitted by all.
Ifa farmer could take three loads of pro-
duce to market instead of two, as he
could do with a better description of
roads, he would soon find the advaotage
it would be in the saving of time and Ja-
bor. There is no doubt but the trafliie
upon our roads will be greatly increased
on account of the extensive use of mus-
sol-mud, for I believe it will have the ef-
feet of greatly augmenting our crops «f
agricultural produce. 1 am of opinion
that the crops of those who are using
that article extensively will soon be more
than doubled. Many are now raising
from 50 to 100 tons of hay per year who
could aot raise more than 10 or 15 tous
afew years ngo. His honor from the
City, (Mr. Patmer) is opposed to bor-
rowivg money for improving our roads,
but Tam of opinion that, under the: cir-
cumstances, it is the best thing we can
do. The main thoroughfares should be
put in a good and efficient state as soon
as possible. If that could be done with-
in two or three years it would be an ad-
vantage to the whole Island. If we
were to borrow £20,000, aud we could
get it at six per eent.. then 40 miles of
road could be Macadamized and made
permanently good. The ioterest of £20-
000 would be £1200 a year, and those
40 miles of road are now costing more
than that to keep them in repair, aud yet

radially increasing, yet,|they are scarcely passable at certain sea-
4 4 a ie jsons of the year. 1 think 40 miles in

the vicinity of the privcipal shippin
places is all the road Nei te At
to be Macadamized for a few years.
The roads near Town were nearly im-
passable last fall just before the trost set
in. Jt the frost had kept off two or
three weeks longer, tens of thousands of
bushels of produce could not have been
brought to ‘Town in time for fall ship-
ment. That shows the necessity of
having something done immediately, and
if that sum of money were borrowed and
laid out in improving theroads, I believe
it would be a gninto the Revenue. Ido
not think it will be necessary to Macad-
amize the ronda in the interior of the
country with hard stone for many years.
If they were put under the charge of
competent persona, as the Report recom.
mends, they might be improved by the
use of Island stone so as to do for a long
time.

Hon. Mr, Lorn: T do not know that]
have much to say upon this question, for
am not much acquainted with making
roads, = I like to travel on good
roads as well ae any person, Ilis honor
from the second district of Queen's Count ys
(Mr. Haythorne,) said partion were finding
fqntt with the report, and perhaps his honor
was alluding to me; but TI would say that
those gentlemen deserve a great deal of
credit fer their report. theagh I do not eo.
morde with all thew suggestions, The re-
port, upon the whole, isa very good one,
and T would like to see many of the sugges.
tions it containe carried onto effect, It is
said that hard stone for one mile of road,
when broken, would cost £500, and his
honor from the city calculates that the ma-
terial for a mile, delivered seven milvs from

a ig 36 port, would cost £846. Well,
even so, it would, . he the cLeapest
we could make. © Kee yet forge

fall, I cannot agree with his se
from City, aa to the advanta of
using ovr Island stone. A short piece of
the road lending to St. Peter's waa done

with Island stone, and what was the conse-

quence? It never Was worse than jt was

last fall, and it wae more difficult to travel
npon it than upon other parts of the
road on which no stone had been used, It
was rounded up till it was almost as apt d
as the back of a beast, so that it was al-
most impossible to travel upon it. There
would not he mach trouble about making
good roads if we had plenty of money. and
the great object is to adopt the best plan of
raising it, i differ from the report, as far
as it recommends borrowmg money, for 1
think we can adopt a better plan. I agree
with his honor from the City on that
point. The plan I would adopt, is to raise
the advulorem dety, and then every con-
sumer would bear his proper proportion of
the expense. Twould also have the Go-
vernment bound to expend the amount that
would be raised by thatincreased duty upon
the roads, as we have been binding the city
authorities with respect to the streeta, I do
not think the country would object to a pro-
position of that kind, and when the reads
would be Macadamized, that tax should be
taken off, In Canada, the people hold
meetings in the municipalities, and farmers
and others come voluntrily forward and
bind themselves to advance large suma—

erbaps £20,000 or £30,000—to assist in

uilding railroads. They do not, at once,
pay the money, bat they pay the interest,
and bind themselves to pay the principal in
twenty or thirty years. In this way, aud
hy the farmers in the different municipal-
ities subscribing large sums, they are get-
ting a railroad built which is longer than
this Island. ‘The farmers advanced, per-
haps, mure than one-third of the money re-
quired, and we should adopt something
ofa similar kind here. I would approve of
that rather than of contracting a lean.
However, sour honors know very well that
we cannot have good roads without expend-
ing money. I believe the Government has
granted £300 for Charlottetown, and £150
each for Georgetown and Summerside, tor
Macdamizing roads, but I think that is be-
ginning in the wrong way. I would rather
sve £500 granted for importing a stone-
breaker, for it is no use to think of Mac-
adamizing our roads, and breaking thestone
in the same way as we have done before.
When the snm granted isao very small, I
think it should bove been all granted for one
town, whichever one you like, for what is
the paltry sam of £200 ar £30) for this ser-
vice, Tho report recommends the appoint-
ment of abetter class of Road Commiasion-
ers, and that may be quite right, but per-
haps our Commissioners do just as well
