THE LAST MEETING!

A public “dune-ovum! on Tuesday evening, in Wsugh's Hull, to dint-nu " l-‘m Trude sud WW." Aflcr Mr. D. Elllllll was culled to tiled-sir, Finlay bit-Neill, Iii—q” tuned s neolution to the clbtt that Free Trude would be beneficial to this island, and he endesvored to show the benefits that would Iriss Mm Free Truth» in its widest sense be- ing curried into elect in this country. He wn followed by several tpetkcrn, who took I dll‘ercnt view of the nutter, some of whom In very forcibls language denounced the princi- ple embodied in the renal-lion. Aller s lungthy dsbute, the resolution was put to the meeting and lost, a large majority voting against it. A resolution, the effect of which was, that the Government of til i': Islam! should enter into negotistions with the [failed Slam Govlrnment at Washington, to form a Reciprocity Truly with this Province, wot Ilse submitted to the meeting.. Quite

an sninlsted dilcuuian took place on this resolution, when an amendment was proposed and carried slnlost unanimously, purinittiilg the mover of the resolution to withdrsw it.

The question of Island Railroad: was then brought up; in the debate that ensued the ‘boys expressed their Ipprobnliou and dissent n- («do too noisily.

A relolotlcn was then moved by Thomas Kelly, Esq., nsklng the Government to estab- lish on oflcs of Judge Probate, nnda Registry of Deeds In Prilice County. This resolution. being of a more practical nltturo than those previously submitted, recommended itself to the good sense of the meeting, and passed unanimously. We have not us yet heard when the next meeting is to be held.

V TH: Steamer “ Princess of Wales“ made her first trip to this art on Tuesday lust. Site has been newy painted and refitted, and presents quite a neat appear- ance. We were r ht glad to welcome our fricnd,Cnplniu vans, on the rc-ap- penrauce of bust. The principal olllcerll :lro Ca 1.. E. Evans, Commander; Mr. Lund, ’ilot; Mr. McCarty. Mute; Mr. \Vm. Chandler, Stewart. The travelling public can place the greatestcanfideuce in those otllccrs and the boat, as we believe no‘uccident has yet happened with her. At the sound of the " whistle“ when she came into the harbor, quite a largo num- ber-of persons went down to welcome the return oi the bout. On leaving she took front here about eighty barrels oysters. twenty head cattle, and several horses.

[3' “'5 have devoted a large portion of our paper this week to the proceedings 01 the House of Assembly, as it will be inter- csting while the House is sitting. In order to do this we have bccli obliged to omit several advertisements, but we hope our patrons will put-don us. We will make amends when the rush 01 new advertise- ments of Spring Goods comes in.

w (Bunny‘s Ludics' Rock (or May has been received. The stch pinto engraving " The Play Ground,“ is beautiful, as is also the wood-cut “ Asleep in Church." Its literary department is, as usual, cxccl- lcnt. Tile fashions (or May are. it we may judge, vcry liicc. Every Indy should have this number as this is the season for fashions.

Er Till: Steamer “ Princess of Wales“ has not as yet connucnccd to rilli to Mirn- mlclli. The summer arrangement will appear in .1 few days.

[3' LARGE bodies of ice are still floating in the gull. Sonic ol‘tllcnl :uu as thick as twunty feet. or more.

[3' Mn. JOSEPH Ilslrrintsi is agent for the STEAM NAVIHATIUN COMPANY ol this Island, for this place, and also agent for the Ex 55. All orders left at his ollicc wtll rcc e prompt attention. All Exprcrs goods dcli ,rt-d lroln his Book Store on payment of freight.

Wit have heard of sonic parties sowing wheat during the present week. We should say it was rather curly, considcring the damp- ncss of the land .

1r appears that our remiulcs in the bi“: Jaumnlin reference to a l't‘onlrtJinL Celli-‘ligry‘ has aroused some of the lending men in the Protcrlant Churches in this place, and they, In til-days paper, are calling a public meeting to lake the matter into consideration. We trust it will be well attcndcd.

“'r: learn that a British Man-of-walr is at present lying in Charlottetown liorbor.

A'r I meeting of the “ Sunlnicrsi-le Fishing Company," on Monday last. it was decided to abandon the project and sell the vessel ulnl cfl'cctll. Any person mulling a good vessel such as is the " Sunlulerside," will do \chI to attend the sale, as a bargain may be had.

01:" old boss, John Iilgs limp, paid us a visit at our office this week. We were glad to see him, as helm.r in his conlpany linulc us think of“ old times."
