last, as twenty per cent. discount, if not lower. And so it would have continued, had not an end been put to the war; the troops and ships being withdrawn, and prizes no longer iinlading their cargoes, the remittances in goods to England becoming less extensive, and the supply of Bills from the Commissariat gradually becoming more contracted, occa- sioned a demand, in consequence of which the price as gra- dually rose, till they became ﬁrst at par, and by degrees at a premium. ~

But what is the reason why Bills are at a so much lower rate in Halifax than in Charlottetown? I answer, because, from the circumstance of Halifax being the head-quarters of the Cominissariat, all Bills in payment of contracts relating to the Army, &0. are issued there. This is one, perhaps the most fruitful, source of supply. The numberof oﬂicers, both of the Government, Army and Navy, who are continu- ally in want of money for both public and private Bills, in- crease this supply—to which may be added amounts drawn by private individuals, and those which ﬁnd their Way there from the outports in payment ofgoods, as, for instance, from Prince Edward Island, and other places. There are also men, having capital in England, who, when the premium is high, draw from that country, upon the speculation of repla- cing what had been previously drawn for by purchasing when the premium is lower; thus pocketing the difference

of premium, 3. species of Stock Exchange-jobbing. These, and various other circumstances, contribute to render the quantity of Bills of Exchange, proportionate to the demand, greater in Halifax than in Charlottetown. Here the number of buyers considerably exceed that of sellers—hence arises that competition which universally takes lilace for every ar- ticle exposed to public sale, which people either cannot, qr fancy they cannot, do without. From the strong expreSSIon made use ofin your letter, “I am constrained to COIIIBSS, that the rate nfExchange is against tis to a ruinous extent,” I am led to believe that you, as well as others, are under the im- pression that this Thirty or Thirty-two and a-half per cent. isjust so much money lost to the Island. Now, it is of the utmost consequence that an impression so erroneous should be done away with. In order to accomplish this, I must be- speak your careful attention to a few facts. The person who has a Bill of Exchange of£500 sterling to sell—Mr. Dick- son, for iiistancew—(lemands for it a premium of£32 105. per cent. Mr. Roggers purchases it—a transfer takes place, and Mr. Roggers pockets the bill—~Mr. Dickson £132 10s. sterling. Now, in this stage ofthe business, Mr. Dickson is the gainer, and Mr. Ruggers the loser; but Prince Edward Island is neither gainer nor loser—the same amount ofcapi- tal still remains within‘ it, with only this difference, that it has changed hands. Mr. Roggers, it is true, remits the Bill either to Great Britain or Halifax—it matters notiwhich ; but the price, together with the premium, still remains in the Island, and constitute part ofthe fiinds of Mr. Dickson, who, ifhis annual income, derived from Great Britain, amounted to £400 sterling, would, so long as the premium continued at the sonic rate, be enabled to live at the rate of£530 cur- rency ; and this is certainly every great inducement for peo- ple of moderate incomes to come and reside amongst us. It is true, he might remit the £130, choosing still to live upon his £400 a-ycar, and by so doing, he would unquestionably be able to add £79 10s., per annum, to his capital ; but this few people choose to do; nor could such a trade be carried on to any extent, for if any considerable amount of Bills were thrown into the market by speculators in this way, the inevitable consequence would be, that the premium would be lowered, and the speculator thus defeat his own purposes. Nor, if he were a resident, would his so doing he ofany consequence, \for whatever he added to his own capital, would be added to the capital of the Island—the capital of any country being composed of the aggregate capital ofits individuals. And no one but a permanent resident could do this: for let us suppose that a person were to come out, and that person were to issue £2000 per annum ; supposing Bills were at £30 per cent, he would make £600 per annum— deduct for coming out and living, at the lowest rate, £200 per annum—

This would leave him, £400 Deduct 30 per cent. for rerrlitting this, 120 It would leave him to remit, £280

But what men of £2000 per amnun would come and. live, here at £200 per annum, for the sake ofmaking £280 ? No one ; for it would be evident to him that ifhe remained here ﬁve years, and then wished to return, he would have to pay the premium upon £10,000, £3000—that is, precisely the sum he gained in the gross, for ﬁve times £600 is just £3000— so that, in fact, so far from gaining, he would, on the con- trary, be'n loser in the ﬁve years of £1000. No man, in fact, but an oﬂicer of government could make any thing in this way. Now, the highest salary in this country derivable from Great Britain is one of £1000 per annum. The officer in possession of this, by living at the exact rate of his £1000, might, in ﬁve years, at the rate of £300 per annum, save £1500; but so far from being able to save, if the late Gover- nor General be correct—and I think' he was not for wrong— he would require two-thirds ofthat sum to be added annual- ly to his income, to avoid trenching on his private ﬁnances.

That I may not trespass upon your patience, or on that of the public, I must'postpone endeavouring to show how I think Mr. Roggers, my other suppositious personage, is ena- bled to sustain his apparent loss, as well as the different principles upon which I have come to the same conclusion that you have, as to the exports from the Island being equal to the imports, for another week.

I am, in the meantime, Your obedient servant, TRI'I‘ICEUS.

To the Editor of the Colonial Herald.

IR; A most foul, lying and scandalous report has

been going the rounds of Charlottetown for some time past, accusing me of giving information to Her Majesty’s Custom House Oﬂiccrs respecting the landing ofsome Goods, said to be imported from Newfoundland—which Goods were not entered according to law; and the reason they were not so entered (as I am informed) was owing to the ignorance of the Owner, who is a vengpoor man, and not being here before, did not know the law to flinteffect: I do therefore declare the said report, so far as regards myself, to be a foul fabrication, and atlssnc ofthe most glaring falsehood, as will more clearly appear by the ML lowing affidavit. ' _

I find, upon an inquiry into the matter, that this calumnious tale originated with some individuals who could hays Ono View in its circulation but that ofinjuring my character: This, there- fore,is to notify the public that any person in future impeaching me with such conduct, or accusing me with such a glaring false- hood, will pay the penalty of the law to its fullest extent.
