We the Inhabitants of King's County. ltnvu thought it necessary to take into our consideration, a Ileepiitch lrnm the Right llon Earl Grey. Iler Majesty's Secretary for the Colonies ; dnted liotvning Street, flth February, I851 ; directing your attention to tho |.and eettlentent question. that some etitisfnctory at-rangeinetit of it eliould now take place. when the people are to have a larger share of con- trol over their publit: nlliiirs.

We tire thankful, that we are allowed a larger share of control over our public afiiiirs. than we have hitheito enjoyed; and it lllttll be our study to exercise such control; to show. that an eesiiiiilutioit of our Colotiiitl Government. to British institutions, will not tend to weaken the Loyalty and attachment we have to Ilet Majesty's person and Goveruiiient.

On up roiicliing the Lnttd settlement question. it is necessary to pretiiise t t labor is the foundation of property and the support of all Cuvarniiieiits ; and while labor supports governtiteiit; it looks to the nvernment for protection ; especuilly ngiiinai the designs of insidious men who assume a specious authority to posses tliemselvea of the fruits of other irieii'a labor. When government and labor up- hold eticli other. property is nccumulated. and becomes the bond of civilized society; and the fruit of such tiiuturtl support and protec- tion ie the political and social well-bein of the coiiimutiity. But the failure of either party to perfortii their nlloted port-derniigcs the whole system. as every itifrection of the compact. between governttient and labor. has it witlieriiig influence oti the industry of the country. and a demoralizing effect. on its population.

This Island wns granted up rently. to try ex, eritiit.-nta in coloni- zation, which did not auccu —the conditions of the grants were not performed, and tiller eotiic years had elapsed. the contlitfonr of the grants were a:iid to have been impriicticnble. In cases of tlto like nature, which had tnketi pltico in other colonies, the griiniecs resigned their grants to the crown or the goveruiiiertt reinvested the lands in the crowti by Eachent. But this Ialtititl was rtttgleclcd, nnd the most of the grantees resigned their grants for nmuil ct-mri. derntiom-, to speculators. who tried nnotlter experiment. Bflllilt sulijecta with more or less nicnns. were induced to emigrate to this colony. to become tenants. to bring the wild lands into cultivation- cotiecqucntly the reclniiintion of the wild ltind by the tenants’ labor and means, went to create in capital for the Landlord; and the rent which 1|... ten.-mt was to pay, is the interest upon such ciipitiil.

Thur, Iulndi which lttttl been bought for ‘en than one limhing per acre, were lot at itn annual Rent of one shil.ing iitid upwards per acre! A proprietorship so usuriously ncquitetl.for the disturbance of fziiitilics ntid the unsettleinent of their homes, cannot be held in res- pect b nn enlightened ople. And when higher prices linte been given or the grantees‘ titles, it was not forjitny improvements which the former proprietors had made ; it is the im ruvetiteiits tiiride by the occupants and tenants, utid the arrenn 0 rent, wherebv the prices of the Townships are estittiuted.
