tlia popul:ition—-are iiiaterislly enhanced. Much, we are aware, may be said of advantages accruing from a Legislative Union, which would go far to remove or compensate disatlvautagcs resulting from the local circiiiiistancr.-s above referred to. We shall, there- fore, for this, as well as for other reasons, suspend our judgtimnt until we have laid before use more cooiprelimisive scheme of the “ just principles" upon which Mr.Juhnston iiitonds to bnseliia Union. With respect In Mr. IIowo‘s idca,—-for that is all that it is entitled to be styled, at present,-— of Colonial Repro- setitation in the Imperial I'arliu:nt.-nt, we can only say, that it has been mooted as far back as we can recollect; and that we never heard any one good sound argutnent being adduced in its favor. On what principle would the representation be fixed ?—On population! How many members would Nova Sco- tis in tliat,cass returnt—How many Caiisda .’-—New Bruiiawick?—I’rince Edward Island I In order to their being fairly represented in the whole Parlia- ment, will it not be requisite to create a proportionate number of American Peerst We can easily conceive that this project would enable a few leading men in

the colonies to elevate themselves; but that it would

raise the provinces, of which they were the repre- sentatives, we very much doubt,—or, rather, we are

iucli ted to believe that it would have a tendency the

very reverse of that anticipated by the csrtaiuly

talented and clover propossr,—of whose judgment,

however. we do not entertain very exalted ideas.

But what shall we say of our friend Martin J. Wil-

kins‘s motion, of a Viceroy and~a Colonial Nobility? h

Baron Home or I".arl Miregornish would sound mighty grand in the ante-room of the Vice Regal Court; but we are rather sceptical as to its answering in coun- tries that have abolished hereditary rights to real estates, and have made barring an entail slniost as easy as barring a door,—thougli the latter operation is for the purpose of keeping intruders out, while the former is tor that of letting them in. We shall resume the subject at an early day.

In giving insertion to the sllidavits furnished by our friend William B. Dawson, we are actuated more from the desire of afi'ordiiig him the satisfaction of publicly refuting the scandalous cliargs triads at the hustiitgs. than from any previous belief in what might

It will, doubtless, be rocolloctod by many of our readers, that the Honorable George Coles snip ati. cally, and most distinctly asserted from the Htlstinge on Wednesday lust, that a Voter had just come up and sworn that I had bribed him to vote for Messrs. Palmer and I.origiv-vrtli. Mr Coles was, no dotibt, ally aware that the Election I.aw makes no provision for the adniinistratioii of any such Oath—and that, consequently, the thing was not simply impracticable, liutthnttlio assertion innde by him was also hm}, false and maIi’ci’ous in point of fact, and one that might. possibly, are led to very serious coase. quences. Mr. Colesnlso knows that when I attempt- ed to rebut his unfounded and wicked statement-— which ltlid imrnediately on hearing it inade—l was assailed by such a storm of yells and iuiprecstions from ltis very enlightened sad liberal supporters, that I could not, even for a tnoment, ltlcceed in gaining a hearing. You will, therefore, Mr. Editor, so insert, in to-d:iy’e pa er, the accompan ing

Allidiivits, embodying, Ibelielile, all the naterial acts

of this sstraordinsr case. and thereby oblige, {our obedt. servant, W. B. DAWSON. Charlottetown, March I0, IBM. Prince Edward Inland, Quinn‘: ounty. I Personally appeared before James Barrett Cooper an ‘John ’I‘ren-.tuinn, I-Isquires, two of Her Majesty's Justices ofthe Peace for the said County, William II. Dawson, of Charlottetown, in the said Island, Taniter and Crurier, who rnaketli Oath and saith : 'l‘hat John Cavnnngh,of the said Town, Laborer, as been in Depoiient‘s employment since the month of December last-—since which time they, the said John Cavanagh and this Deponent, have had no settlenisnt of nccouiiis. That on the morning of Monday last. the Sittli day of March instant, the said John Cavanagh coins to this Deponent, in a state ofintoxication, when Deponent nslted him if lie had made up his mind as to how be was goin to vote. Cavanagh replied. that he had been o and money for his vote by the other party, and that as be was a poor man. whoever gave him the most for it would get it Deponent said that lie (Cavanagh) had come to the wrong shop to look for money for n vote—that he could get lenty of votes without paying for them, and that if he minted money for is vote, he had better go to Mr. Coles, who had the most need of them. Deponent then let} Cavanagh to go to breakfast. On returning to the Shop after breakl::ist,'Deponent found Cavanagh there. and he

be asserted by it worthless drunken vsgabond. Mr. Dawson's simple denial was quite enough for us; but perhaps the charge may reach to places where Mr. Dawson's integrity and veracity are not so well known as they are in Charlottetown; and it is, therefore, but just, that where the poison has been dissominated,the antidote should follow.

To iris: Eat-roa or Hasssas‘s Gan-r-rs.

Sir,—Poraiit me, by means of your widsly-circu- lating Journal, to call the attention of our Legislators to t necessity of making such additions to our Election Law, as will ensure the freedom of Election more olsctaally than it exists at present.

Some few years ago, it was supposed, that in Charlottetown at least, violence and intimidation could always be prevented so far as to enable voters and candidates to proceed to and return from the bustings without hesitation. Isthis the case now? Let those who have calmly witnessed the last two Elections in Charlottetown answer.

At an Election in a Country District, should a half a dozen Charlottetown people shew themselves, even to rzsrciss their franchirs, they were threatened immediately with violence; often have they in such case felt their lives in danger, and the reason. as they have invariably been told by scores of persons, is, because they are Charlottetown people, and have no right to interfere with a country election. At Char- lottetown, however, we now-a-days find hundreds of country people, coming to the Hastings, taking their stand there, and acting a violent part from beginning to and of the election. On Wednesday last, there were full two.hundrod, from various parts ofthe country, asseinblod by special request tliars is no doubt; and, as clioica a set of rufii.-ins as could be selected within the precincts of Botany Bay, not one

of whom had the slightest pretence of right to a vote J

for the town. Monopolizing to themselves, the whole foreground of the Ilustings at the Old Court House, their occupation was to hurrah, whenever either Mr. Coles or Reddin opened their lips, however ridi- culous either of those Candidates made themselves appear; and to howl in like .nanncr, at whatever was said by Mr. Palmer or Mr. Longworth, however ‘me or appropriate their observations. As the Election proceeded to its termination, the violent inclinations of these fellows could Iiardly be con- trolled; their coantensncas indicated more passions of the savage than the reasoning faculties of civilised mun; their large projecting mouths, long yellow teeth, low foreheads and connected syeb row render them a more fitting comparison with wild beasts than human beings. Disappointed at the sigaal defeat of their brother " Liberals," and acting with the usual combined motion of the mob, they endeavoured to jostle down several respectable towns. men, who ventured to raise their voices against their uoaduct; and had those individuals fallen on the ground, they would, doubtless, have been murdered by miscreants, who were quite ready to jump up... their bodies when in such a dsfenceless situation These occurrences, Sir, are becoming too frequent and too dangerous to be tolerated by a civilized community. It should be borne in mind, that iftlisy are allowed to be practised any more with itapuniiy, the evils attending thorn will speedily increase in . (aarfal ratlu. I think, therefore, that_ the Legislator. will early seethe necessity of passing such anaoi- meals as will aleatuelly prevent their recurrence. am, Sir, ’°'"s &B.s A 'J‘OWNSHAN.
