Next, with rcgird to the question, lVliat Plait- men or (u'ovu-nniml O "ale xlwuld be privileged to sit in the 1/'gl'8bfIll‘e.7--W0 arc of opinion, that no one who is iniiucdintely concerned in the collection or disbursement of an part of the ublic revenue should be allows a scat in the" lie isliiturc. ' In fact, it appcarsto us that the only Government Uiiicials who can, with strict ropriety, be allowed to sit there, are the Crown ihiw-Olficcrii and the Colonial Secretary The Attorney and Solicitor Generals ou ht unques- tionably to be iiieiiibcrs of tlic Lcgis aturc, the one, we think, in the Upper, and the other in the Lower llouse ; and, to u it so seems almost as clear that the Colonial Secretary, as tho dircct reprcsciitativc of the Government, ah well as ofa constituency, should have it seat in the .\ssciubly,—-that, at all times, thc.reprd- sentatives oi the ‘oplu might be able. directly iind at once, to o Jullll, froui him, such ollicial information as constilulionally they should have a right to demand, and t ie Government be bound to impart. xxrtxsiori pr riu: r:1.sc'rivs irimiciusx.

We were, at first, inclined to look upon the movement, in the Assembly, last Session, for an Extension of the right of Sufli-age, with almost iiiiqualitied approliiition; but we have since seen abundant reason to modify our opinions con- cerning it. We cannot, with respect to it, we find, adopt the views of those “ who base their arguments upon abstract right and naked arith- metic ; to whom the will of the majority is sacred ; and in whose estimation one man is lid as competent as another ; and who hold that every niii.u's claim, to an equal share

in tho Governiiicnt, is inherent and indeiins- kg‘?!

We cannot think that it would be siifeor wise to introduce Urii'i:vcr.tal Suffrage until llnirersal lflcliwaliaa shall have been first attained. To an cxteusion of the Elcrtirc I"rantIiire, we are cer- tuinly favourable; but we are persuaded that such ii. measure would be roductivc of much evil, unless carefully be upon properly and

intelligence. In general, persons who have ac- cumulated roperty, have, in so doing, given proof that y are sscd ofqiialifiiis which make them It and cab itepositaries of the fran- chise. And it will, we think, be admitted, by every man of sound judgment, that all educated men should have the right of suifrngu. But to inaintain that it should be extended to all, inde- pendently o the possession of: property lion, wou d be to maintain the inonstronsly

absurd opinion, “ that the basement class of the social edifice should overrule all the others-— thiit ‘ those [who toil . who think’—-and that those who la ir withdhc hands should havcitbo supremacy over those who )1‘ with the brain.”

On this subject, siitiicc it, for the present,-to ‘add, that what is most wanted, on the pcrtboth of Elerlnrs and Cmididulu, is “ what the French ‘call adj ndiovi dc: ¢'apaciI(’s—the recognition of certain intellectual qualilications.”

l‘0I'L‘l..\ll. ELECTION or ALL omcrzss, (son-Judicial and non-Military).-—'l.‘hc conferring upon the People the privilege of electing all Ullicers, non-judicial and non-iiiilitiiry, would be a step perfectly in accordance with the prin- ciples ofltes nsiblo Government, the culiar and distinguishing feature of which is t e larg- cst possible admixture of “ the popular ele- ment” into its constitution ; and it would an- questionably allbrd the most efliactual check-— nay, it would prove nothing less than ii death- blow—to the practice of petty intrigue and """'"';:“' " on the part of (lovi-rnment. When the proper time for the due adjiistnicnt and rcctification of the Ros ionsible system shall arrive, we shall not fail, if found in the position which we now occupy, earnestly to ac vocate, with respect to this matter, what, we are con- vinced, would be amost acceptable and salutary concession to the Peop msii r:ui:c.irio:v.

No object of public interest so imperativoly demands attention as that of Education. We have, indeed. a vegehigh opinion of the strong sense and correct ling of it great proportion of our agricultural community ; but we are also well aware how much man of them incapacitated, by the want of education, for the transaction of business and the proper exerc as i of their political privilogedv:m\Ve are decidedly

in favor of 1%: or Stale ' ion. W
