eroleeet is to take the sab- jeet of this eh. to the payment of the 'e adary. and tossed home a strong reuse against it being hythe y. It iawell known that we havaheea de- prived of reaoereea which ether Colonies are is posse-sabe- the

'4 are not fairly dealt with. for we were asked to pay the expenses of the troops which warerequiredhareto pat he a dis- torbaaee which grew out to the granting away of the lands of the Colony. The only reason I can see for treating us is this wag is that the Golan b so small: itialoo edupon by the aperialGov- ernmentaaa pareetloohs upon an in- isat. They consider that we must sub- mit to whatever is impmn ea. I trust the Government. up by the Legislature. will endeavour to snow the In al Autlbritiea that we are not in a similar ition to the other Colonies. and ahoul not he called upon to pay the Governor's salary. ,,

lion. Mr. Dntowrtu: It leiamatter for regret that the British Gerarumant should. at the present time. call upon this small and poor Colony to pay the Governor's aalary. It is well known to your honors. and should be to the Im- perial Government. that this colony labors under a great disadvantage. We are now endeavoring to rectify an error which the British Government commit- ted in granting away the soil. We are purchasing the possessions of the pro- prietors which they never legally held. for their grants were forfeited ;a1ul while we are doing this the British Govern- ment is asking us to pa the Governor‘s salary. [was always iaposed to think they would seldom commit an error. and if they did they would try to rectify it. but when the ask us to ay the Gover- nor's salary cannot tool that degree of

confidence in them which I former did. Perhaps the present Government is not so much to blame, for I think they must be. in a great measure. ignorant of our ntlairs. It is true. tihis is a small colony. but the people are as prosperous and happy as could be expected when all the circumstances are considered. It is our duty. as the representatives of the people. to make the Imperial Govern- ment acquainted with our circumstances, and perhaps they will see the justice tf continuing to pay the Governor's salary as formerly. There was a» slight dis- turbance in the country a short time ago. but I believe it was magnified lor the purpose of bringing us into confede- ration with Canada. With rcgard to the payment of the Troops. I think the British Government is rather imposing upon us. for they should have seen that their own acts in granting away the scil led to the diotnrbauce to suppress which a Military Force was required. They should not govern a small colony with a heavy hand as long as we are loyal sub- jects as we have always been and still wish to be.

Hon. Mr. Burn: It is exceedingly dangerous to admit that we are making any progress asa Colony. for the [mo peria Government take up that ad- mission and set it forth as a reason why we should pay the Governor's salary. We certainly are. on account of the in- dustry and perseverance of many of the settlers. making slight. progress. but this ver year there is an applicatioufor legis- lative assistance to enable many not settlers to purchase seed grain. hat shows that the Colony is not wealthy. ‘ It is not the first time that the British Go- vcrnrnent has made a mistake with re- gard to the Colonies. In reference to the Cape of Good Hope. as well no Amu- tralia. they have made mistakes. and“ last were obliged to yield. Canada. tpo.

Othevw they should piece as in the same position as the other North American Colonies by heading over the lands tphaie local Government. W reopens Gov-neat wasgraeiedtbe an to pay the Governor's solar;

it lea breach of faith to make such a demand upon us now- Washooid eu- deavear to make our vanoas known to the British Goternmeot. for they are evidently ignorant of them. many mem- bers of Parliament do not even know where the Island is situated. We should therefore endeavour to make our case known. for we will then stand a better chance of getting justice.

Hon. Mr. McDoxann: This matter of the payment of the Governor‘s salary appears to have been under the consider- ation'of the Imperial Government. and also of the local Legislature. at various times for the last twenty pears. In the Journals I find the following deapatch from Earl Gray. then Secretary of State fortha Colonies. to Sir Donald Campbell. dated Downing Street, 14th December 1848: ~

-' The circumstances of the country have rendered it incumbent on Her Msiesty'a Government to consider of every t and proper means to reduce the expenditure borne by Great Britain for the Colonial possessions. In the performance of this task. their attention could not but be drawn to the annual estimated voted for Prince Edward Ielantl.

" As for buck or the your 1776. a grant ol £3000 was made towards defrnyin the expenses of the Civil Government 0 the Island. and a similar omount appears to have been. ever since. annually granted. In the infancy of the settlement. therefore. and through the long course of years which has since elapsed. the steady and sustained assistance of this country has not been wanting to the colony. But latterly lta ro- sonrcos have been gradually developed, and on referrln the Blue oaks. 1 observe. with much from these statements. the local revenue has been progressively improving, until last year it because more than equal to the local expenditure.

"Under these circumstances. it will be obvious that “or Mnjesty’a Gowrnmout could not. with pro riot . continue to np~ ly to Parliament lhr the veto which has ithcrto been granted for this colony. Two charges may still be deemed ro or subjects to he provided for from ri ish funds. vi: :-—l. he Salary of tho Lteutom ant Governor. and 211'. "That Imlg establish- ed Pension of £500 per annum. to Mr. Smith. once Lieutenant Governor of the Island. to which allowance the faith of the. British Government is pledged; Her Majesty‘s Government have come to the conclusion that all the remainder of the estimates might be discontinued. and the application submitted to Parliament be con- fined to these two items.

" The aala . however, to be attached to the office of :he Lieutenant Governor. rc- niros some further explanations. in con- ?ormity with the opinion which nose:- reased so long 1150 as 1840. by Lord gydenham. when overnor General of Canada. and which true at that time agreed in by Lord John Russell. although the local Legislature could wot then give effect to the suggestion. I think there can be no doubt that the salary which has hitherto existed of £1000 11 year. is inadequate; and 1 am prepared to recommend its increase to £1.500. sterling. per annum. You will understand. however. that this salary is to constitute the whole ps remuneration of the Lieutenant Governor. and that the reduce of all fees. seizures. or other or- qulaites which may have hitherto const tu- ted a ‘part of his emoluments. are to be carried to the credit of the public.

" The sum of £130, hitherto borne on the Parliamentary estimated for the contingent expenses of the Lieutenant Governor. can also no longer be defrayed from that source. and it will remain for the local Legislature to provide lbr such charges 01 this nature as are r lsite for the dproper discharge of the fono one of the A ministration ot the Government.

" Such are the arran onto which. after mature consideration. t is thought right to adopt upon the present subject. 1 am aware that the local Legislature. in their recent Act iorlevyinga further Macaroni on lauds. assigned out of the proceeds as extra allowance of £500 r aunum. cur- rency, to the Lieutenant ( evernor as long as the usual grant it Parliament should he made towards the all expenses of the lav land. Aware of the anxiety of the Legis- lature that this act should be agreed to. and seeing no nfllolent objection to the general revisions which it contained upon that which have are interested the in abltanta

Now we see fiat hrl Grey deepateh. that the salary ' tenant Governor and the pa Smith, were allowances to which .the faith of the British Government. was pledged; and he further states M the salary of £1000 was inadequate loathe Lieutenant Goveraer and he was pre- pared to recommend its lemme-ta £1800. lie also says that each are the arrangements which the lmperialGoivo eminent. after mature cecal " to adopt. is

It appears further than that time. the Legislature of the (Johny had made a grant 012800 c towards the solar of the Lieutenant Governor. undies Grey iiatas that he does not think it is advisable that itahould be made from this Island. He recom- manila that it should cease on the salary beit'ig raised by the British Government from £1080 to £1500. Again. Earl Grey, in a doe felt to Sir Donald Campbell. dated 7th February, 1849, says :—

" I bare the honor to acknowledge your dorpatchh’o. 7. of the 17th ultimo. ea-

ntcnt of the Colony will cease to he d. to the said extent as heretofore. by trade gran ted from this country.
