Tarp Distarcr or Queen’s Countr.—The nomi- sation of a candidate or candidates for the representa- ton of the third District of Queen’s County, in the place of William Douse, Esquire,—whose seat was de- clared vacant in consequence of continued absence from the Island—will take place at the Sheriff’s Court, to be holden at Charlottetown on the 12th June next. We are not aware that any Gentleman has yet offered his ser- rices “ to the free and independent electors,” whether it iefrom excess of modesty on the part of the aspirants for guatorial honours, ox from apprehension of failure, we weunevie tosav.

Resonytioys on tue Reveyce Bri tN THE) Lecisuacive Councin.--The following resolutions} were aytoed to by the Legistative Council on the last} day of the Sessioa, while the Revenue Bill was before that Honse :--

Res. ved, ‘Vjvat the House of Assembly, in appending! io th: usual annual Revenue Bill now before this House, items of enpropriation distinct and separate in their nature, and one of which is wholly unconnected! with the Bul, »as departed from the Constitutional, usage of Parliament, and which usage has always prevniled in such matters in this Colony.

Iesolved, That such a mode of procedure would in #!| probability if persisted in by the House of Assembly, and subeitted to by this House, have the effect of obliging this House to give its assent to appropriations! ik might cis pprove of, rather than to reject the Supply which the putiic exigencies roight demand.

Reseived, Tsat in passing the Bul in question, in its preseni shove, this Heuse is impelled thereto by the consideration that the General Revenue Act expires this day, and that the rejection of this Bill, which was only sent up to the House ata late hour yesterday shornoon, would leave the Colony withost a Revenue for the current var, and thereby inflict an injury to an extent which would require many years of commmer- cial Drosperily | repair.

Resolved, therefore, That although this HTouse cgrees 'o pase the Supply Bill in its present shape, it shall not be held or continue to form a precedent, nor will this House on any juture occasion entertain any general Revenue Bill, in which the moneys thereby contemplat- ed to be raised shall be appropriated in the same Bill lor services distinct and separate in their nature.

ArpointmenTs.—His Excellency the Lieut. Gov- mor has been pleased to appoint Mr. Martin M‘Innts, Wharfinger of the Wharf at the flead of St. Peter's Day ; and Mr. Winurass M‘Ewex, Wharfinger of the Wharf at the end of Cable Head Road.

Wittram Sanperson, Esa., of Georgetown, has been tppointed by Daninn Honeson, Esquire, Deputy Clerk ofthe Crown anid Prothonotary for King’s County, in the room of the [Jon. Edward Thornton, who has ac- cepted the sppointment of High Sheriff for the same County.
