Hon, Mr, Howran eaid a subscription | list for £300, it wes alleged, had been |

| banded into the Colonial Seeretary. which |

Mr. Muyro eaid the inhabitants of George- town had subscribed liberally towards paying the expense of extending the telegraph to that

place, for they were told that if they would subseribe a cettain amount towards it, th Government would earry out the work for

them. All the people in that town subscribed something, and it the subse ip lion was sent to the proper authorities, and fost, they could not help it; but ii the liet were foand he be- lev d they wo uld pay thea dioteraeheatas i in good faith, Some of the peuple paid the amounts subsoribed by them aithoagh the list Was not presented to them for payment, and

Others would aiso pey what they had pro- mised, He hoped hon, members wou!ld not think the amount voted was fer Georgetown alone for many other parts of the countrs derive benetits from that telegraph. When the Supreme Court wae held there this season, it was found on convenient to baye tele

graphic communicstion between that place and Cha lottesawa, for the business of that Court could not have been broaght to « sutis- fuvtory conelusiun without it, If the lisi could bs found, and the money pai 1, if could he refunded into the Treasury,

lion. Mr. Howzan said that there had been in arrangement with the London, New York and Newf jiand Telegraph C -mpany some time ago, in refereace to telegra;h fives t be set up on this Isiand. The Company
