HASZARD’S GAZLETTEU DECEMBER. 14.

that the Royal Ga:ctts. when published by me, was conducted with as little consideration for private feeling and as little respect for rivate character, as have characterized its 'toriaI coluinns since it passed into the hands of Mr. Whelan. I cannot, therefore.I‘ think, _iustl

be censured for presuming to notice, through

-. the public press. in the most temperate and

respectful manner, for the purpose of correc- tion, Your Exccllency‘s apparent misapprehen- sion on this subjeot—a inisap rehcnsion which, if it really exist in Your Excelloucy's mind. can havsbeen induced by nothing but the most on- scrupulous misrepresentations on the part of Your Excellenc 's “ confidential advisers."

' t the oyal Gazette was published by me, it was very seldom that its political articles par-took of a decidedly controversial or party spirit: and. certainly, none of them were ever disfigured by the conceptions of individual ma- lice, or, in any way, calculated to disturb the As respects such considerations,

ow completely do they diflbr from the reckless, rabid, and ferocious spirit. manifested in most of the editorials of, and in the comiuuni- cations to, the Royal Gazette, whether directed against a party or against individuals, since it has been conducted by Mr Whclan ! That such has been the general character of its editorial and communicated articles since it has

, been edited b Mr. Wlielan, has been abundant-

‘ ly testified

y the indignant voice of many of the most respectable and deserving members of this community. And this voice. it is pre- surnod. did not fail, in some degree, to influence Your Excellency; for it was well known, and it is still well remembered, that, at the time when ublic sentiment was most indignantly excit and indeeently outraged b the scanda-

us and unrestricted virulence of r. Whelan’s editorials, “ Pi'ni.isnsn av Au'riroai'rr" as broad- I set forth in the heading? of the Gazeltc——-of t at shield he wins sudden y deprived, by Your Excellency's interference as the public general- ly believed, and lainly given to understand, “ that he was to ic responsible for all articles published in the Royal Gazette unauthorized by the Govcrnuient.”

According to public opinion, such interfe- rence on the part of Your Excellency, was most loudly called for; and many——perhaps not without good reason—aro of opinion that. since then, your Attorney General might. with the

cutest propriety have been instructed to cull

im to account for the unwurrantable licence with which he has presumed to cm loy his pen and his press. In iiny private in ividunl it is justly esteemed a misdemeanor, worthy of the infliction of a legal penalty, to bring, or to attempt to bring, a constitutional government into contempt among the people. But how much more worthy of punishment. I take leave to ask, must a man be, who, although not only a government ollicial liinisclf, but actual] n nioniber of the govcrniiicnt. has, by the vi est prostitution of the Guvrrnmeut Press, exposed, not only his colleagues in Council. but, in some degree also. the Head of tho Government, to the

personal hatred and contempt ofa very consi-

_ rable and respectable portion of the commu- ‘hit I ~ V 'ith respect to the publication of the Royal Gazette, your Excellency has said, that you,at one time, wished and suggested that, nlthou h it should be published separately, you afterwar s.

. for reasons adverted to, felt that it was not your province, to urge upon the (Icvcrnmeiit, at an additional expense to the Colon , any departure from the practice which ha been Ion sanc- tioned by the conlidential advisers 0 your predecessors. _ '

That the apprehension of additional expense to the Colony, from the adoption of Your Ex- cellency‘s suggestion, was, however, very ill- founded, and——if urgedliy Your Excellency‘s confidential advisers, us. think, I have room enough to infer it wns—was most unfairly urged, is. I respectfully be leave to observe, an opinion. the correctness 0 which, it is by no means diflicult to prove.

If the course pursued by me—-the rejection of all libcllous and inflammatory communications. and the observance of due moderation and for- bearance, in the editorials of the Rural Gazette ——had been honestly represented to our Excel- lency, you we th' at once have

rceived how easily that course could have bad Ingrafted upon it a new principlc—a principle inperfect accordance with the spirit of Your Excellcncy‘s su gcstion, and which would nei- ther hnve inter cred. in an way, with or cir- cniuscribed the lrgitirriatc province of tho Gaz- ette, nor have added one larthing to the public disbursement. 'I‘his would hnvegbecn to liavo dircctcd that no original political iiiattcr, or ar- ticles, uriautharizc-41 by the Govzrrvmcnt, should appear in the Gazette; and that, besides gene- ral news, foreign and domestic—-the Govern- ment aiid other advcrtiseruents—liternry and scicntilic selections and coiniiiunications no edito- rials, except such as, thoroughly irrespective of

e confirm! interests of mere rt , sect, or creed, should be honestly intentfdd tlor the fur- therance of the general interests of the Colony.

This is, pretty nearly, if not altogether, the course pursued with the Bermuda and ow- foundland, as well as some other ofour Colo- nial Royal Gazcttrs; and such, it seems to uie, would Iiave bcen——with, perhaps. a sli ht nio- dilication—thc course prcseribctl for t e ma-

nn merit of the Royal Gazette of this Colony, if our Excellency had been allowed to carry

into eflect, with respect to it, the dictates of your own judgment, unbiiissed by any consider- ations but such as arose from your desire to direct the public service. in every branch, in such a way as you believed would most direct- ly tend to the promotion of the public weal, and to the enhancing of the credit and reputation of our Government.

' here will not, I trust, appear, to Your Excellency. either in the observations made by me. in this letter, or in the mode in which I have presumed to resent them at once to the no- tice ot' Your Excel cncy, and ofthe public, whom they chiefly concern. any forgetfulness. on my part, of that hi h rcs ct in which Your Excellency ought to c hel in this community.

So far, owevcr, as in strictures alfect the character of another individual to whom, in- deed, they chiefly apply—I am quite iudilferent as to e light in which he may view them. or the manner in which he may choose to reply to them. His abortive caluninies, insults and ibuse, I have hitherto despised: and should lie continue “ to maligii and rail," even with great- er virulence and audacity, than have heretofore clikraeterised his ‘‘ Billingsgale," his malignity and ribaldry will never—at least so far.as they respect myself—be regarded by me with any other sentiments than those ct’ supreme con-

I vs the honor to be, with high respect, Your Excellency‘ most obedient humble servant, Ann D. Ilrszsnn. Recreation Grove, Dec. 12th, 1853.

I beg to acknowledge receipt of the sum of £80 being the smourii Insured with “ The Mutual firs Insurance Cosipany" on one of my Ccltngss in the Royalty lately destroyed by tire. The pronip- tiluds which has been manifested in paying my demand after a careful investigation into the matter, has inspired me with a further assurance of the bone- lit derived from "The Mutual Insurance Company" —I feel well ssiistled that it will become one of the most beneficial Institutions in the country, and being one nrnorig its earliest prouipters, I have much plas- aure in its prosperity.

I am Sir, Your most cbt. servant, JAMES D, HASZARD. To Henry Palmer, Esquire, Secretary and Treasurer. Mutual Fire Insurance Company.

WI have much pleasure in giving insertion to the letter from Rustico. signed " A Friend to Improve- ment." The estiiblishinent of s School Libvary—ihs Iirlt, if we mistake not, in the Islnnd—'I creditable both to the people of Rusiico and the master of the school, Mr. Roberts; and we trust will prove but a beginning of one of the greatest aids to the education of the people that can well be devised, and that School Libraries will be as common as they deserve to be, throughout the Island.
