ltnd been reprinted by Mr. Ilnrzard. the self-eorrsti- tuted idviewur not only found fault with the execution of the work. but tnuch endeavored to depreciate tbo

candid critic in the jealous tradesmen. and endeavor- irrg to throw obstacles in the way of that enterprise which itinis at the bringing out and encouraging do- mestic industry. by employing it in the production of useful labor. 'I‘ho malicious ntternpt was. however. as futile ltl it was impotent; for the edition of the reprint in question is tiow rtesrly exhausted.

\Ve may reniurlt. cu puarruil, that though the work gopigd fnrm. containcd_ a number of egregious blun- ders. as respects tlte Colonies. which were correc- ted in llnss.urd': edition. no credit was given to the latter for these errtondations in the review. by the editor. of tits Royal Gazette.

We are promised a Crtlendsr and Almttnaek from the oliice ofthe ./ltlosrliier. In it. we presume. we shrill lind the bus neines of _the members «If the House of Assembly. we sltall have tlte list of Magis- trates also. with the lion. George Colss‘s name next allot that of the Master of the Rolls. and before. the Judges of the Supreme Court.

We lately asked the reason of this. and were answered. llrst. that it was because the President of the Executive Council tnltes. precedence, in point of rank. before Assistant Judges of the Supreme Col" 3 in thutcase. his name should have appeared before that of Mr. Assistant Judge Peters: and that the name of the senior Councillor. “ 'l'he llon. A. Lane" was always inserted in the Coniutiasions of the Peace before those of the Assistant Judges. As to this last assertion, we have made enquiries in Ill! proper quarter. and find that assertion is. like most of those emanating front the pen of Whelan. fill"- Col. Lane held. for it long time. the oliicc of senior Assistsrit Judge of the Supreme Court. and. while he did so. his nature was, of course. placed next to that of the Chief Justice. 'I‘he other assertion. that be- cause the President of the Executiro Council and the Councillors themselves are. in the table of prece- dency, furnished by the Colonial Otlice. ranked shove Judge: of the Supreme Court. manifests such a total ignorance of the subject. on the part of Mr. Whelsn. that it is unworthy of a reply, were it not that there are many whose knowledge of these mat ter: is as limited as that of Mr. Whelan. but with better reason, and, for their sekce, we shall con- dsscend to explain.

Precedence is purely personal. and is confined to those occasions where right to take stations nearer or further olI' from the Sovereign. is the rnstter to be settled. and is a very arbitrary concern. For instance. a Duke‘: eldest son. who is but it Commoner. takes precedence of an Earl. who is a Poor of the Realm. Let the Duke‘: eldest son, however. 8° “"0 “'0 House of Lords. and the Black Rod will soon show hint that his place is in the Gallery. and that there, he is inferior to created Barons.’

Look in the Army nnd Navy I.ists. and you find Lords. Lords’ sons, and liaronets and Banners’ sons who, in a procession,would take precedence of their Colonel: and Captains. but whose ntimes are record- ed according to the several make they hold in their respective professions. A Lieutenant is s Lieutenant. though he be a Duke; and. as each ranks below all others. whose coniruissiuns are prior in point of date. So it is with Mr. Colcs, whatever nisy be hie rank at a funeral or other processions. in the Commission of the Peirce. hie name should be uftsr.end not before. those of the Judges of the Supreme Court. who see, 1.. (hi. respect. hie superior: in rank.

I could not recommend that the Military should be maintained in the Island to do the duty which ought to be accom- plished by an ellcctivo locttl Police, es cially when such maintenance is at the coslgo re ~ ed and numerous dcsertioas. meat of it Police Force to perform the services prpporly belonging to such ti. bod , and the
