Of the year 1878, it is not necessary to say anything. During that year the Con- servative members resigned, and the Grits, true to their political instincts, rolled up an enormous deficit.

The management of the Stock Farm for 1831 is again a matter of congratulation. I:sported cattle and sheep have deen pur- chased for the Farm ata cost of nearly $600, and a further sum of $200 has been expended on s'umping and clearing land, and there still remains to the credit of the farm over $200, being the surplns for 1881.

Tue subject of the subjoined correspond- ence between Mr. Henry Pope Mellish and Sir John A. McDonald is of vital import ance to the people of thisIsland. It wonld

| seem from Mr. Meliish’s very able letter

that the Island occupies an ‘* anomalous

osttion ameng the Provinces in regard to the lawfulness of charging excessive rates of interest, and that money lenders are pre- vented by law from charging such rates in the other Provinces.

Mr. Mellish’s views respecting the neces- sity of protecting the land on which the bulk of our pepulation depend for their bread, as well as other svgyestions a facts so comprehensively and temperatels set outin his letter, are certainly worthy of the most careful consideration. The

Premier's courteous and highly satisfactory |

reply leaves little room to doubt that the matter will be disposed of during present session of Parliament :— P. MELLISH TO SIR JOHN A. MACDONALD, PownaL. Towxsurp No. 49, Prince Epwarp IsLaNb, March 4:b, 1881

sir, -I have to apolegize for the liberty I take in addressing you. I have no doubt. however, that you will agree with me as ‘o the great importance of the subject to which { most respectfully beg to direct your at- teprion

Owing to the anomalous fact that no usury ‘aw whatever has been in force in this Pro- vince for a great many years, a most undesi- rable state of affairs, as relates to the farming population especially, has for a long time existed, and is daily growing worse. Hund reds of farms are mortgaged for sums hearing interest at ten, twelve, fifteen, seventeen or twenty per cent.; and it is no uncommon thing for lands to be solid by the Sheriff uaoder it, ment er foreclosure of mortgage for debta bearing iaterest at such rat«s the interest in man cases far exceeding the principal. In fact much higher rates are frequently exacted Not loug since in a cause before the Sup-em: Court in this County (Queen’s) over ont undred per cent. interest was claimed, not- withetauding which a verdict was yiven for

he plaintiff by direction ef the Court. I do not wish to be understood as finding fault with the Court by any means. (I was sot, in any way, personally concerned in the m tter) but I merely refer to this cose as an iilusivation of the werking of our present interest system. It is scarcely~nevessary to state that this eystem has been productive of wide-spread mischief, and most disastrous resnits throughout the Province. Every yea members of industrious men become hope leasly involved, as they fied it impossible by the strictest economy and yond management to pay off debts, originally moderate, contracted in purchasing land, im- proving their farms, or otherwise, when they are burdened with such exorbitant rates of interest.

it would be presumption in me, on the present occasion. in addressing yoursel, to enter into a discussion of the question sb- stractly considered, as to whether the Siate should impose a limit on the amount charged tor the use of money. But I will venture to say that, as agricultural pursuits exclusively are followed by a great majority of the in- habitants of this Province, it is very import ant, in my judgment, at least, that their interests a3 landholders be as stuictly guarded a3 pos ible.

As the Brit'sh North America Act vests in the Domivion Parliament the exclurive legis- lative authority in the matter of interest, I have thought it not improper respectfully to submit the foregoing facts for your considera tion. I have no hesitation in assuring you that the passage of an Act, assimilating an interest law for this Province to that now in force in the adjoining Provinces, where not more than six or seven perccnt. can be charg- ed ou real estate security, nor more than ten per cent. on personal security, on. pain of forfeiture of the debt, would be of lasting benelit to the pseple of the Province, and would be hailed by them with the utmost sat- isfaction, Again appolig zing for troubling you, I have the honor to he, Sir,

Yeur most obedient servant, H. P. Mewuisu.
