In going so, Mr. Pope will observe that we have not

for in selecting a text that would have a forcible application

to the gentlemen who write for the Islander, we did not wish

, that the Emigration 4 gent should have reason to charge us with want of courtesy in neglecting to furnish a text that He will please to note, therefore, that the second extract, taken from an essay by Dr. Johnson, in the * British Essayists,’’ vol. 24,

would give some clue to Ais distinguished character.

p. 52, London Edition, 1802, is intended exclusively for him- self. ** Leasing-making,’’ \Vebster informs us, is an obsolete term for lying ; and surely Mr. Smith's friends ought to con- gratulate him on the fact that the law referred to by Johnson was not in foree when he visited Scotland last fall; for if it had beep, there is no doubt that while he was enjoying the hospitalities of Dendas Castle, through the kind intervention of His Exceileney the Lieut. Governor, Mr. Smith was qualify- ing bimselt for an elevated position in society at the hands of the Scottish Jack Ketch.

We are charged by the Islander with having libelled this country by designating it ‘‘ a bleak and dreary wi:derness.”’ The charge is untrue. We have seen enough of this Island to convince us that, as a whole, it is the most fertile and bloom- ing of the British American possessions ; and we should be the veriest dolt in the nniverse if we thought we could make any person believe the reverse. What little we write for this paper is always written in a plain and common sense style, which every man of common sense can easily understand. Mr. Pope is not devoid of this quality,—he has common sense enough to understand every thing he reads if he chooses to put @ right construction on it,—but he is deficient in another sense—that sense of shame which would prevent any other man from putting a false construction on the opinions of a political opponent, in order ** to deceive others,’’ in the words of our text, ** without any gain or glory to himslef.”’

Mr. Smith advertised his countrymen that there were 200,- 000 acres of land to be had in this Island on a 999 years lease, free for three years, for several years after at 2d per acre, and Ile stated that the freehold interest of the same property could be had at 6s 8d

for the rest of the term only 9d per acre.

per acre,—he represented the yie'd of grain crops, and the prices which they brougut per bushel, as enormously above the average. In commenting on his false statements, we said that he had painted an El Dorado for his countrymen, and surely it would be if his representations were founded in fact. We showed that the only lands in the market were wilderness — that possibly there might be 200,000 acres—that in the hands of the Government there were not more than 50,000 acres, a large proportion of which was bad iand—that the Government sold the property in their trust, not at 6s 8d but at 108 and 12s 6d an acre, and that there were very few good locations to be had at the latter price—that the proprietors, as a general rule, did not sell small tracts of Jand under 30s an acre, many of them demanding and receiving as high as £4 per acre— although there is no dou +t that some of them would be willing to sell their whole estates to the Government, to get rid of bad titles and bad agents, at even Jess than 6s 8d an acre. We also showed that the grain crops raised in this Island did not command anything like the prices quoted by Mr. Smith; and his friend of the Islander answered us with the miserable quibble, that Mr. Smiti:’s quotations had reference to our current rates, about which his countrymen had not the faint- est glimmering of intelligence. In short, Mr. Smith's adver- tisement was plainly intended, in its most essential particu- lars, to deceive a large portion of the uninformed agricul turists of Scotland who might be desirous of improving their con- dition—leading them to believe that they had nothing to do bat to come over to this country, where they could at once settle upon fine cultivated farms, to be obtained at a mere nominal charge, aod by which they might speedily attain a wealthy and independeut position. Our remarks were written to shew that wilderness land is, for the most part, the only

kind of Jand they can obtain—that that wilderness is neces- Captain opty three weeks before, without having previously} At West River, East Point, on the 29tb ult., Mr. Duncan Stewart, | ; eet OILS, BRUSHES, PUTTY, &., which will | Selected in the best Markets in Europe by an experienced tt

AYER’S CATHARTIC PILLS,

The sciences of Chemistry and Medicine have been taxed their ut- most to produce this best, most perfect purgative which is known to man. Innumerable proofs areshown that these Pius have virtues which surpass in excellence the ordinary medicines, aod that they win unpre- cedentedly upou the esteem of all men. ‘They are safe and pleasant to take, but powerful to cure, Their penetrating properties stimulate the vital activities of the body, remove the obstructions of its organs, purify the blood, and expel disease.

lies, who are admitted to be sume of the best settlers on the |

Island, have no right to express an opinion on public affairs as soon us they begin to reap the reward cf their honest exertions.

There are several other passages in the editorial under re-

view which we should like to notice, but Space does not per- |

mit. We cannot, however, pass over the reference to Mr Coles’s purchase of a farm on the Worrell Estate.

lieve,’’ says the Islander, ** that Mr. Coles acguired one of the

best farms on the estate, with a good Mill site upon it, for a|

very small sum, which he immediately re-sold to a member of the Government, realizing a handsome profit by the specula- tion.’ Now, the ‘-farm”’ referred to, was one hundred acres of wild land on the Cardigan road, which, having a Mill site upon it, Was put up to auction, in conformity with an order in Council, which required that all tracts of land, of a similar description, on the Government estates, should be offered to public competition. A very long notice was given of this auction. When it took place, Mr. Coles, who had no thought of buying, attended the sale; but he, desirous of realizing the best price he could for the Government, bid liberally, and the property was finally knocked down to him, in the presence of | numerous competitors, for £130, being 26s. an acre, ata time | when wild lands sinilurly situated in back roads were selling | for 10s. an acre. Ie took no undue advantage in acquiring | this property. Every person present at the sale had as good | a chance of purchasing it as be had; and when he transferred

it, some considerable time after, al] he made by the transac- | tion was £20. We are astonished that Mr. Pope could be so

silly as to allude to this small affair, while he knows that he | forestalled the Government in the purchase of the whole Wor- | rell Estate, and sold it to them for more than double the price he agreed to pay the poor imbecile owner of nearly 90,000

acres—realizing @ profit amounting to thousands of pounds by

the transaction.

So numerous have been the blunders committed by the Government during the past year, that that feeling of sur- prise with which the public regarded some of their carly proceedings has entirely worn away, and the queer doings of our Executive now seldom move the laughter or indigua- tion of the community. To “play fantastic tricks before high heaven” seems to be the aim and object for which the fates endowed them with ‘a little brief authority,” and the public bave come to the conclusion that they should be

suffered to fulfil their mission with as much peace and quiet- |

ness as possible.
