to point out some of ite defects. te convince the framers of the Coustitution that they are in error. This we believe to be a hope- less task; but we do not despair of proving, te the satisfaction of all honest (hiuking readers, that this Constitution is the clumsy contrivance of ignorant, unskiltul, and politically dishonest men —that ite priveiples are unsound, aud that the unfortunate tenants who consent to be governed by it, will ouly sueeeed in inereasing the difti- culties and distresses of their situation. ;

Passing over many passages of a questionable chagacter, we find in the Preamble to the Con- stitution the following clause :—

“And whereas further compliance with the terms of deases whieh owe thelr existenee in many cases to fraud ou the part of the so-eall d proprietors, and ignorance aud neevssity on the part of the tenants, weuld ouly teud te protract the agitation, by prevewting a speedy settlement of this long-vexed question.”

In connection with this we will quote Art. 11 of the Constitution: “ Every temant belonging to this Union shall unite withthe ether tenants on the estate on which he lives to wake a reasonable offer for the purchase of the freehold of his farm. He shall pay neither rent nor arrears of rent.” But Article 9 of this same Constitution declares, “that the object of this Suciety shall be to secure tree land for the whole tenantry on fair, equitable. and honourable terms’! ! What notions these Unionists have Toruitd ot fairness, honer, and equity, it is quite tmpossiblé for us te conceive. Becuuse some lenses, say they, have been ex- terted by fraud, and necessity has compelled some men to sign leases, therefore ald tenants

Loxbon, 30th August, 1865.

Dear Sir.—I was duly favered with vours of the 10th tust., and accompanying documents, for which please accept my warmest thanks.

Lhave caretully perused your documents, and vote the price ot produce and stock, and the high price of labor (48. wath tood tor unskilled labor) . and although your land may be cheap, aud each Parmer bis own landlord, it is net very clear iow he eau became wealthy, or even get ew fatr return fer capital (agricultural labourers here get sa. to 108. per week without rations.) At the suine time | ean well comprehend the fores of your rewark, When you say “ VP. EB. Island wants capital, evergy aud euterprise for its develope- meut.”” The Wants are many and can be pointed out, but it is not so easy to substitute a remedy Looking at your statistics, exports, and the simail- ness of their quantity, after outs (which exceeds one million bushels), }donot see how eapital can be profitably employed either in agriculture or iv commerce.

The uature of your produce, and the small money value it fetebes in a foreign market, atter pay ing freight aod all ether charges, leaves a small return to go inte the pockets of the produ- cers. And again looking at your prices, and the prices ruling here, 1 do net see any inducement ty the merchant to embark capital in your trade

Lam rather struck at the anomalous position the statistics place you in, by shewing you do not grow as much wheat as feed yourselves, but iim- port flour largely from your Yankee friends; and, in return, dhe halfot your exports go ty the States to liquidate the imports.

Now what occurs to ine is, that your Farmers | produce articles (barley, oats and petatoes) pos- sessing too litthe teney value tor export, and after paying freight, charges, and couniission, they can get very little to themselves: and I would therefore suggest that they should grow a differ ent class of crops tor export, eutirely, that i-, Crops possessing tiore Money value, and by deing so, they would stand the chance of getticg more for their own pockets. On a reugh glance the crops that appear to me to be more profitable would be Flex or Linseec, Hemp, Mops and Beet Reot, for the manufacture of Sugar. You. will
