In the Editor of the Morning News. Sir,

On my arrival in town this day I was much gratiﬁed to learn, that the Legisla- ture now in session, are likely to relieve as poor farmers, residing at the East Point, trout attending more than once s-yeat‘ as Jurors at the George 'I'0wn Court. I trust, Sir, that the Bill which has been introduced to relieve us from this heavy burden, may pass into a Law, as the Petit Jury on Tuesday last were summoned to attend—and alter traveling adistance of 80 miles, they were inform- ed on their appearance, that they might severally return to their respective homes, there being no business !

mis, Esq, C.

'I have examined your friend, Mr. IIum- phreys‘ VVorks—the Ilorace and the Road- er—earefully. I have noticed a few typo- graphical errors: but, on the whole, they de- serve much praise. He has displayed a high degree of scholarship in editing the Horses, as well in his selection of the notes of former editors, as in his own. I especially admire the candor with which he has acknow- lodged the obligations he lies under to others. UIIIII you sent me these books. [had no idea that the press of Prince Edward Island was in so advanced a state.’
