‘The deaweratic element being now brought to bear upen the Council, there will be a struggle amongst rival purties fur ascenduney in that branch ol the Legistature. The Tories will think to gain it, beeause the property qualification of electors seems high, aud because they always claim te hav more wealth than the Liberais. Dut in this they will be sadly mistaken. Weadmit that there are a few merchants and landholders who could buy | out many small farmers without great inconve. | nienee to the said mereliauts and landholders ; but the latter have only ane vote, while the mnall | farmers, if they have any improvements at all | worth Guticiag, may easily ouf-number ou the poll | book their wealthy rivals. Take Charlottetown, | for example. In the Main Street there is more | wealth fa real estate aad merchaadize than in a dozen other streets in town; yet in that street it | will be difficult to find even ten votes for Legis-| lative Ceuncillera, beeause the majority of the | holders of property are lessees and not freeholders, | and nowe but the latter have votes, except in the | ease of tenants who have made improvements to | the value of one hundred pounds on their rented | property. lottetown—go inte what is called the East or | West Bog, and you will find more “ free and in. | dependent voters” for the Council than can be found in our most weslthy thorvughfares, or in our most fashionable resorts. Take our sable | friend Bill Byers: his vote will be considered better than that of the principal heir to the vast estates of the late Mr. Peake, whose property constitutes the principal part of the town. Bill owns 4 shanty, and a piece of ground which he ean howestly eall his own, and swear they are worth a hundred pounds, and his vote is just as good aa if he owaed a thousand buildings of orick, stone and wood.

Now, it is very clear that the humbler classes im the community may easily gain the aseendaney in the Legislative Council, if they wish to do é, | sud frustrate the iatention of the Goveruisent of creating a property aristocracy there. rs freeholder in the town will rank as high on the poll book as the rich freeholder, and will be con- sidered a better man at the bustings than the rich merchant who has many thousands of pounds worth of goods in the warehouse whieb he rents from others. In the country, for example, Bruce | Stewart has net a better vote than the pourest tenant whom he worries for reut, aud to which be has a very doubtful title.

We hope, therefore, that frecholders and ten- ants in town aad country will understaud and ap- preeiate their powers and privileges. We shall cheerfully give them our advice from time to time.

| on the subject of the Award of the Laud Commis- siehers. | We cannot refrain from expressing our surprise

that the last Eaglish Mail sheald have brought out | the Queen’s confirmation of the “ Bill te change the Constitution of the Legislative Ceuneil by rendering the same Elective,” inasmuch as His tirace the Duke of Neweastle had, by a Despatch from His Exeelleney the Licutenavt Governor of the 15th Oetaber last, been informed that certain amendments thereto, sugyested by His Grace him-

self, were by the Attorney General of this island |

deemed advisable; and His Grace had also, by a Despateh te His Exeellency in reply, dated Ath

Nov., intimated his desire that the Legislature ot !

this Colony would take an early opportunity ot amending the Act, inthe points previously adverted tw by bia.

Tue Legislature was summoned to meet this day for the purpose above stated. The reeeipt of the Despatel by the Boglish auail of last Friday bas frustrated this intention. Mueb care and labour have been bestowed in initiating, thus tar

Reviewing the policy of Hia Grace throughout the whole matter, we cannot divest ourselves of the conviction that he is not aware of the strong

of the peuple ot Prince Edward Island, that voles the Award be authoritatively confirmed by the Crown, there will have been a violation of the solemn compact entered into between the inaperial Government, the proprietors, and the people of this Colony, and that the pledge of the Imperial Government has been broken.
