his commusication Yo the committee, |
think he bad reference to certain swamps,
and he stated what he had seen in Cun-
ada, where small cedar timber placed on
end, is found to be preterable to what is
known as “ corduroy roads.” As to a
crusher not being imported this year, 1
have already stated the reason, which is,
that a doubt existed as to the cost of

imported stone,

Hon. the Prestpenr : [is honor from
Prince County, (Mr. Lord), says we
have begun at wrovg end, but 1 differ
from him. A committee was appointed
last year to enquire ito the best method
of improving the highways, and they
have presented their report which eoa-
tains a good deal of useful information,
I do hold, that if a proper supervisor
were appointed, he would save more
than his salary in the amount of money
expended for roads and bridges, for it
cannot be denied that a great deal of the
money is expended to little purpose.
Till some better system is adopted and
the money expended under the super-
vision of a competent person, we need
not look for much improvement. We
know that in the neighboring provinces
they never had good roads, till they had
the money appropriated for them expend:
ed under the direction of competent super-
visors, and if we would adopt the same
course here, I believe we would have
good roads likewise.

Hon, Mr, Lorp: I have travelled iv
Nova Scotia and New Brunswick, and
have found their roads very much in-
ferior to our own, 1 know a portion of
our roads uear the towns are very bad
in the fall, but in Nova Scotia, though
you will oceasionally find a few miles ct
good road in favourable situations, yet in
the low lands they are worse than ours.
I have frequently assisted in taking a
waggon oul of the mud. A great deal
has been said about our Commissioners,
but I believe they are just as intelligent
AS any Fie ean find in the other provin-
ges. Nothing will please some gentle-
men but importing men for every office,
as if all the knowledge in the world was
goncentrated in that little Island 2000
miles away,

Hon. the Presipenr: | have also
travelled some of the roads in New
Brunswick. Io 1830 I travelled on a
road which was almost impassable, and
in four or five years afterwards I travelled
at again and would scarcely believe that
80 much improvement could be made in
such a short time at so little cost. In
the fall of the year, almost every part of
it was as hard as a floor, aud the im-
provement was attributed to the appoiat-
ment of a competent supervisor. I am not

an confident that if it were left to the
people, the majority would be in favor of
adopting that course.

Mon. Mr. Anperson: I do not think
the ineflicient state of our roads is to be
attributed so much to the ineflicieney of

means, As to the statute labor, I would
be in favor of having a part of it per-
formed early, and of allowing the re-
mainder of it to be done about the same

might require repairs which could not be
attended to in the spring.

Hon. Mr. Barversron: I think the
suggestion of his honor from Bedeque,
to have a part of the statute Jabor done
in the spring, is a good one. I remem-
ber that last session I made some re-
marks similar to what his honor from
Prinee County, (Mr. Lord), has made
now, that it would be better to pay com-
mutation mouey than to perform statute
labor, but Tam acquiainted with many
poor people inthe country who would
rather work two or three days than pay
three or four shillings. A man can
cither work or pay at present, and per-
haps it just as well to leave it so, for of
course he will do whichever he finds
most to his advantage. I believe there
is more done on the roads as statute
labor, thaa would be done for the money
if the labor were commuted, for when a
man takes a job on the roads he expects
to make good wages. Ido not think
there would be anything gained by im-
porting a man to superintend our roads,
tor he would have to get his practical
experience after coming here, but if a
stone-breaker were imported perhaps it
would be necessary to get a man who
uuderstood working it. One great mis-
take in making our roads is, that .hey
are pot properly drained, and I think it
would be a good idea to appoint a person
to take the supervision of a district—say
two precinects—to decide where drains
should be made, If there was some pro-
vision made for an appointment of that
kind I feel assured that it would be moaey
well expended.

Ifon. Mr. Parmer: I do hope and
trust that the Legislature of the Colony
will take up this question of the improve-
ment of our road system, if not with suf-
ficient effect this Session, I trust it will
be one of the priocipal Measures next
Session: It is one which the public feel
the necessity of every day and it will not
admit of being postponed. ‘The evil must
be met, for it obstructs the developmen.

agriculturalists—are what we at present,
and must in the future depend upon, 1

other country if they can be procured

change is required. Whatever Govern-
ment is in power, it is almost the first
thing they should do to open up proper

we borrow asum of money to make

Hon. Mr. Beer : I must fully endorse
the sentiments of hia honor the President,
aod I am sorry that I have to differ from
his honor from Prince County, (Mr.
Lord), especially as to the mode of rais-
ing money for the desired improvement
of our bighways. I am confident that
to raise the advalorom duty woule be a
very unpopular step, and I do not see
any necessity for doing so, for I do not
see why those who will come after us
should not beara portion of the expense
ot making substantial and durable roads.
If we increase the advalorem duty, all
the expense will have to be borne by the
present generation, while those who
come after us will participate in the ben-
efit, and I do not think that is the policy
adopted in other countries which are in
a thriving state. There would be no
difficulty in borrewing £20,000 here, and
that would bo surficiout to macadamize
40 miles of roads near the shipping
places, The interest of that amount
would be £1200 a year, and the Govern-
mentis annually expending fully that

adopting a better one. I will not trea-
pass further upon your time at present,
but before the debate is closed, 1 will
offer a Resolution containing my own
views, but I woald not press it hastily
upon the attention of the House,

the country have deen so lorg silent upon
this subject. Men who we meet every
day have to undergo the utmost labor in
bringing their produce to market, and
sometimes they are prevented altogether.
I have taken every opportunity to bring
this question before my fellow colonists,
and to point out to them whether it
would not be better to submit to a mo-
derate amount of taxation, and there-
by, contribute to a fund to be expended
in improving our roads. In fact, they
are taxed now by the amount of labor
they have to undergo and by tie injury
to horses aad vehicles consequent upon
the state of our roads, And I have en-
deavored to point out to them that if they
could prolong the life of a valuable horse
and save themselves a great deal of labor
aud time, it would be money io their
pockets. However, as the Session is
now so near its close, we cannot expect
the Legislature to act upon the Report
of the Committee, but nevertheless, I
hope and trust that great good will yet
result from it. The Report evinces much
attention aad research, and it contains
suggestions which, I think, the more they
are considered the more worthy they will
be found of consideration. There are
many sugyestions which I would like to
pass a deliberate opinion upon and to
put upon record, There are many
things in it which involve the best inter-
ests of the Colony, and while trifling mat-
ters ocoupy the attention of the Legisla-
ture, those of vast importance are over-
looked. T quite agree with the sugges-
tions in the Report with respect to the
introduction of the system of Macadam-
ization, and if a few hundred pounds were
appropriated to set it in operation with
the aid of a Stone Breaker, it would be
an advantage. Of course, _ political
economy is what we should all keep our
eye upon. I know the proposition to
contract a Loan is not favorably received
in genoral, and I feel rather unfavorably
disposed towards the expenditure of a
large sum raised byw Loan at the pre-
sent juncture, I would rather give the
proposed system a fair trial for two or
three years by the expenditure of a mo-
derate amount, and thus prove what the
real expense of Macadamising would be.
Then, if it is found that the expense is
not beyond what we would be justified in
a T would be found among those
who would be willing to contract a Loan,
If our roads were once placed in a good
condition so as to give farmers facilities
for exporting their produce, it would be

merely my opinion to-day, but has been

AFTERNOON SESSION.

SHERIFFS’ DEEDS.

Ifon, Mr. Pater, on rising to move
for the second reading of a Bill for shorten-
ing the language of Sheriffs’ Deeds, seid
the object of it was to dispense with a
goud deal of formal recitations in Sheriffs
Deeds, by which they were rendered
lengthy and expensive, Many tithes 0
land were derived from sales under writs
directed to the Sheriff, and when a man
had to go inte the Court to defend an ac-
tion, it was often necessary to prove bis
title. The present form was very long, but
ax the law now stood it was indispensable
that certain Acts should be recited ina
Sheriff's Deed. These recitations might be
dispensed with, except the mere substance
of them, if an Act were eg for that
purpose. He had frequently intended to
introduce a Bill of that kind, whieh, from
his experience in the legal profession, be
considered desirable, so as to simplify the
proceedings and render them less expen-
sive,

The Bill was then read a second time,
referred to a Committee of the whole
House, reported agreed to without any
amendment, and ordered to be engrossed.

Adjourned till Monday next, at eleven
o'clock.

Monpay, April 13,

Oo motion of Hon, Mr, Palmer, a Bill
for shortening the language of Sheriffs’
Deeds, was read a third time, and paseed.

LIQUOR LICENSE BILL.

Non. Mr. Muinnep, on rising to move
for the second reading of a Bill in further
amendment of the laws regulating the sale
by License of Spiritous Liquors’ said, the
principal alteration in the law which was
contemplated by this Bill was, that a party
requiring a License would be required to
obtain the consent of a majority of the
householders in the District wherein he
wished to open a tavern, ata public meet-
ing to be called for that purpose. instead of
going round to the houses with a requisi-
tion as by the present Act. The Bill aleo
rovided that no Small Debt Court or pub-
1¢ office, such ax a Post Office, hereafter to
be established, should be kept in a tavern.

The Bill was then read a eecond time,
and referred to a Committee of the whole
House—IHon. Mr. Muirhead in the chair.

Hon, Mr. Parmer: I regret that there
is a necessity to apply so often to the
Legislature for laws to regulate the sale of
Spirituous Liquors. There is searcely a
Session but there is an Act passed making
some change, and yet, with all the efforts the
Legislature make, the law seems just as im-
verfect as ever—ihe evil still exists, for
immorahty and crime, flowing from the
abuse of spirituous liquors, are sti} found to
prevail. I only hope that this amendment
will contribute something towards check-
ing the evil, but Tam of opinion that how-
ever desirable it may be in the minds of
some, to prohibit the use of intoxicating
liquors altogether, we cannot do that eflee-
tually by Legislation, It will have to
depend upon the exertions of good and
philanthropic men, outenle of the Legisla-
ture, to educate the people up to the ne-
cessity or benefit of abstaining from the
use of those stimulants, and in the mean-
time, it is incumbent upon us to render the
laws upon this subject as well adapted to
the remedy of the evil as possible. No
doubt there is good reason and sense in
what many people say, that good houses of
entertainment are necessary. Probably
we will all be willing to admit that, for
those who are in the habit of travellin

know how desirable it is to have a goo

house of entertainment, provided with all
the conveniences and accommodations
which we would require, npon the road,
It is not these that the law aims at putting
down, or keeping down; but it is thoee
which are opened under the color of bouses
of entertainment, while the parties who
open them have no other intentions but to
traffic in intoxicating liquors, Perhaps the
authorities are not sufficiently vigilant, or
suflicicntly independent and patriotic to en-
foree the law strictly; if they were, we
would not have. so many applications for
changes. There is too great an inclina-
tion on the part of the Magistracy to over-
look, or shut their eves to what they should
not, and consequently, we have many more
retailers of epirituous liquors than are
necessary, by which means injury 1s done
to good and respectable houses which we
would wish to see established. Now, I
think the alteration made a few yearsago,
by which it was left to the inhabitants to
say, whether they would have a house open-
ed in a District to retail Spirituous Liquors,
was a step intherightdirection. I believe
that principle has been acted upon with
some advantage ; but there is an objection
made, which I dare say is well founded,
that the spirit of the Act is often evaded.
The law at present is, that no license shall
he granted without the consent of a ma-
jority of the householders in a District. and
none are eligtble to a vote but those who
have a voice in the appointment of school
trustees; but parties interested in opening
those taverns can go through a settlement,
and by whatever representations — they
cheose to make, probably not confining
themselves very striotly to trath, they man-
age to obtain a majority—perhaps only a
majority of one—in favor of opening a tav-
ern, It is often considered doubtful wheth-
er all who signa reqnisition have a right
to do so or not. The present mode. in
that particular, is ecnsidered very objeo-
tionable, because the person requiring a
license will always be active, while on the
other hand, the old saying is presented to
our minds, that “what is everybody's
business ie nobody's business.” 1 think
the Bill, if it become law, will effect an
pap edge in that respeet ; and though
it does not comprise all I could wish, yet
it commends itself to our support, for it re-
quires that a pablic meeting of the inhabi-
tanta of a District shall be convened, and
then, when the people are bronght together
there will be a better opportanity of deal-
ing with facts and traths alone, for if there
i & man there who will obtrade himself
upon the meeting he will be pointed out,
People will alxo be more disposed to ex-
ato their minds freely at a public meet-
ng than they would in their own houses,
and that being the case, I will enpport that
part of the Bill. It is, haps, experi-
mental to some extent, as all laws on ting

subject are, bat I am willing to amend the
law in any way which will have a tendency
to suppress the abuse of the system. That
is what we shoald all aim at, for, howe

creatures demand. With that view T will
Support the Measure before us,as I think it
will have a good tendency, for every house-
holder who is opposed to the opening of a
tavern, will know that there will be danger
of a man obtaining alicense, which danger
will be increased if he and others who are
opposed to it do not attend the meeting.

Hon, Mr. MacDonatp: T do not think
this bill comprises any very material change
of the principle embodied in the last act
that was passed, or if there is any change
I do not think it is for the better, I be-
lieve that if a license were granted upon
some particular day in each year, at a pub-
lie meeting of the inhabitants, to he ealled
for that purpose, and on a certificate of
the majority, it would be preferable to the
mode which is proposed to be carried ont
hy the clause which has just been read, As
the billis at present, the people may be
called to attend a meeting a dozen times in
each year, and they will soon get tired of
that way of proceeding. If they attend a
meeting once or twice, they will think that
is enough. and the chances are that the
person wishing to obtain a license will get
his friends to go to a meeting, and he will
thereby get a majority in favor of giving
him a license, If a certificate were to be
grantedin that way, at an annual meeting,
the people would take a greater interest in
it, and if they would refuse to grant a
license at such meeting, there should be an
end to the trafficin intoxicating liquer in
that district for twelve months, unless some
person should choose to sell it surreptitions-
ly, and the majority, being oppesed to open-
ing a tavern, they would of course take a
greater interest in seeing that no nerson
should sell without license than if they
were otherwise disposed. As the bill is at
present, an unlimited namber of meetings
may be called ina year, and, on the very
day when a meeting is called, many of the
people may have something of more im-
portance to themselves to attend to, but if
only one meeting in the vear could be eall-
de, they would be more likelyto attend, I
believe that would be much more effieacions
than the system proposed by the bill, There
is searcely a year but there is some amend
ment proposed to the license law, and IT do
not know but the law passed by the first
Legislative Assembly in the colony, in
1773, was jast as effectual in preventing the
sale of liquor without license as the pre-
sent lawis, It was then left in the hands
of the Governor in Council. and only a
limited number of licences were granted,
At the present time I believe there are a
number of places in each county where
liquor 18 sold without license. A few days
ago T was at a store in the conntry in which
liquor is sold, The man has store license, but
cannot sell in small quantities, yet T saw a
person coming ont of the store with a me
and a tumbler in his hand, Going behind
the henge, he called two or three others and
give them a drink. By law, the liquor is
not allowed to be drank on the premises,
but they went outside and drank it, and J
suppose returned the jng to the store,
There are means fonnd to evade almost
everv act passed onthis subject, T cannot
see that this bill is any great improvement.
for the present law requires the consent of
a majority of the householdera in a district
before tavern can be opened, and this
only requires the consent of a majority of
those at a meeting, where perhaps not more
than one-third of the people in the district
may attend,

Hon. Mr, ANperson: T do not see why
some parties should be allowed to sell
liquors and others not have the same
privilege. It is well known that houses of
entertainment are necessary, and I think ic
should be left to the Grand Jury to deter.
mine where, or in what district a honse of

there are annmber ot applications, let a
meeting of the householders be called to
decide who should have the preference.
People cannot travel without getting accom.
modation, and some of those who are crying
out so loud to have the public houses shut up,
would be last to open their Coors to a
traveller. 1 do not approve ot the bill.

Ifon. Mr. Breer: It is very trne that
many attempts have heen made to legis-
late successfully upon this subject, but
scarcely one measnre has been passed which
has proved satisfactory to the people. It
isalamentable fact that a great many of
the youth of the colony are in the habit of
spending their evenings in those publichouses
where they form habits which cleave to
them and ruin their prospects for time and
eternity. It is highly necessary that some-
thing should be done te put a stop to this
state of things, even if it should subject
travellers to a little inconvenienee. Itis,
of course, necessary that a few honaes
should be heensed to keep accommoda-
tions for travellers, one, for instance, be-
tween Charlottetown and Georgetown, and
one between Charlottetown and Summer-
side, but it is difficult to legislate so as to
place them where, and only where, they are
required, ‘There is a good house of enter-
tainment between Charlottetown — and
Beceque where no liquor is sold, bat where
a comfortable meal can be obtained at any
time. If such houses were established
through the country,there would be no need
of licensed taverns, but not many euch
houses are established; whether it is be-
cause they do not pay or not, I cannot tell,
If we cannot induce parties to open euch
houses as that, it would be better that the
public shonld be put to a little incon-
venience than that the morals of the young
men of the colony should be contaminated
in the way they are at those taverns. I be-
lieve the bill is a step in advanoe, and
though it is not what I would wish to see,
yot I feel inclined to support it,

parts, when all obnoxious matter will be removed. A peul-
tice of bread and water may sometimes be applied at bed

Rheumatism, Gout and Neuralgia.
Nothing has the power of reducing inflammationand sub+
cuing pain in these complaints in the same degree as Lolle-
way's cooling Ointment and purifying Pills. When used
simultancously they drive all nflammation and depravities

from the system, subdue and remove all eorgmens of the
joints, and leave the sinews and muscles lax and uncontract-

ed A cure may always jbeeffected, even under the worst
circumstance. if the use of these medicines be persevered in

Lruptions, Scald Head, Ringworm, and

other Skin Diseases.

After fomentation with warm water, the utmost relief and

iest cure can be readily obtained in all complaints affec-
ting the skin and joints, y the simultaneous use of the Oint-
ment and Pills, But it must be remembered that nearly all
skin diseases indicate the depravity of the blood and derange-
ment of the liver and stomach consequently in many cases,
time is required to purify the blood, which will be effected by
a judicious use of the Pills. ‘The general health will readily
be improved, although the eruption may be driven out more
freely than before, and which should be promoted; perseve-
rance is necessary,
On the appearance ot any ot these maladies the Ointment
should be well rubbed at least three times a day upon the
neck and upper part of the chest, so as to penetrate to the
glands, as salt is forced into meat: this course will at once
remove inflammation and ulceration, The worst cases will
yield to this treatment by following the printed directions.

Scrofula or King’s Evil and Swelling of
. the Glands,

This class of cases may be cured by Holleway's ing
Pills and Ointment, as their double action of pu ing the
blood and ‘strengthening the system renders them more aff
able than any other remedy for all complaints of a scrofulo
nature, As the blood is impure, liver, stomach and bowels
cone pe deranged, require purifying medieine to bring
about a cure,
