Assembly had been alluded to in common with the Quit Ront Arrears; for it brought to mind the ridicule which that gentleman had drawn | down epon himself, by his laboured circulation of the amount of Quit | Rent Arrears due by the proprietors. That gentlemen had, at the

expense of much time and labor to himself, prepared a statement of | those arrears, concerning which he bad carried his investigations so far back, as almost to have reached the year one; and his calculations, set

forth in red ink ruled columns of long and seemly array of figures, he

had laid before, and pressed upon the notice of the House; and what was

the result ? what did he effect thereby? Nothing but to make himself ridiculous, and, by some, to be accounted mad. Now really, when the

Hon. Colonial Secretary was reduced to the nocescity of having recourse

to the revival of so absurd and hopeless a schome, he must be persuaded

that he would have but a poor chance at the rext election.

Hon, COLONIAL SECKETARY.—If the Lon. and learned member |

for Charlottetown bad only as good a nest-egg against the next election, he would be well satisfied with his prospects of success. His (Hon. Mr. Palmer's) nest-eggs were an Elective Council and vote by ballot. With respect to an Elective Council, he himself was quite as favorable as the hon. and learned member himself, perhaps more favorable: with respect, to the vote by ballot, the people were, he believed so indifferent about, it and so little did they relish the regulations which would be attendant upon it, so little was the mode in accordance with the spirit and predilections of truly independent freemen, that, were it made law, he believed not one half of the electors would take the trouble to register themselves. The advocacy of these two measures then would render but little service to the hon. and learned,member at the next election. The Hon. gentleman then again briefly adverted to the Land Assessment Act and the Despatches to which be had previously referred, aud which he bad in part read; and concluded by saying, now we have got a Despatch which tells us that notone penny of Quit Rents has been paid for thirty years; and, though we were once fools enough to abandon our claim to those rents for a season, we will not, when the proper time comes to revive it, act in so foolish a manner again.

The Chairman then put the question upon the amendment submitted by the Hon. T. H. Haviland, and the Committee divided thereon:

Avyes—Hons. Messrs. Haviland, Palmer, Longworth and Montgomery, Messrs. H. Haviland, Yeo and Pope—7.

Nays—Hons. Col. Secretary, Col. Treasurer, J. Wightman, E. Whelan end R. Mooney, Messrs. Cooper, Dingwell, Munro, Clark, Muirhead, Perry, Laird, McIntosh and McGill—15.

The Chajrman then put the question on the original paragraph, which was agreed to.

The remaining paragraphs of the Address, which are simply affirmative responses to the corresponding paragraphs of the Speech, were then put seriatim, and severally agreed to nem con.

HOUSE RESUMED.

The Address in answer to “ the Speech” was then reported agreed to in Committee, without any amendment. Before the question of concur- rence was put thereon, the Hon. T. H. Haviland moved the amendment; end on the question’s being put thereon, the House divided as in the Committee; and the Ayes and Nays were as above given, save that the name of Mr. Macdonald took the place of that of the Hon. the Speaker, among the Nays.

The Address, as reported, was then adopted by the House.

Desare on THe Drart Appress, 19th Fes., °568.—Errata in the report of the speech of the Hon. D. Montgomery.

Ist. Through oversight, in extending his notes, the Reporter omitted to transcribe the following passage of the bon. gentleman’s speech:— **We certainly ought to be thankful for the blessing conferred upon us by the late barvest; but my knowledge of its quantity and gnality does not enable me to concur in the propriety of calling it abundant. The Hon. Colonial Secretary has taken occasion to speak in most disparaging terms of the agricultural ski!l and practice of t@e New London farmers. There was a time, however, I may remind him, when they seemed to stand mach higher in his estimation than they do now. But how much soever they may have fallen in the hon. gentieman’s regard, I can as- sure him, he has fallen quite as much in theirs.”’

2nd. The numbers of the Townships, now corrected, in the report of the foliowing passage as already published, incorrectly given: —The hon. gen- tleman, after having stated, *‘ that he could safely affirm that there were at least one hundred persons present’ [i. e. at a late public meeting at New London] “and he knew that, had it not been for the state of the roads, which were, at that time, very bad, there would have been many more present,’’ added, ‘‘As it was, there were severa! individuals present from Lots 20, 21, 22 and 67.”

3rd. And, through misapprehension of the words of the hon. gentle- men, the Reporter has improper!y made him say, ‘* And, so far were they from approving of the policy of the present Government, that an

office-holder who was present, and who moved a Resolution, expressive of | £14,868 3s. 34d. does not bear interest, for deducting from it

contidence in the Government, could find no one to second it.’? The words ip walics should have been—“ in favor of the Board of Works Bill.” kk. B. lxvine, Reporter.

CHARLOTTETOWN, P. E.1,, MARCH 1, 1858.

EEE

————

Tue manner in which the reverend editors of the Sanctified Press have replied to our remarks in our last No., respecting the seditious and mischievous tendencies of a paper that was established avowedly to promote the glory of God and peace among men—affords the most undeniable proof of the truth of those remarks, and the uneasiness they have occasioned in the minds of those for whom they were intended. Our ar- guments remain uncontroverted—our statements undisputed, and the questions we felt it our duty to propound, respecting the complicity of a certain commissioned officer in the Queen’s service, are, as we expected, unanswered. In place of an auswer to our strictures, we have an attack upon those liberal Protestants who expressed, through our columns last week, their reprobation of the conduct of the Protector—a sneer at

ourselyes because we commit the awful sin of professing the |

Roman Catholic faith, which we do withott interfering with the convictions of our fellow-subjects of all other religious de- nominations ; and we are asked toreply to aseries of questions

involving important and long established points of Catholic ‘sales of land, as they had properly enough charged the Go-

doctrine. Our ** worthy contributors’ can very well bear, -

without injary to their feelings, the imputation of ‘‘insolence’? | and deceit, when made through such a source; and as for our | own part, we have read so much abuse of the Catholics in the | columns of the Protector, that we are not now likely to get | chafed at the splenetic outpourings of Mr. George Sutherland

or any of his editorial brethren. The poor old Church, which

has withstood, with undiminished vigour, for many centuries, | the assaults of bigotry and intolerance, will searcely have her | equanimity disturbed whenever the bigots of the Protector | take a funcy to runamuck against her. If it be good amuse- | ment for them, and if it pays, we should be sorry to lessen their enjoyment and their profits by offering any opposition to | its continuance. With respect to the questions on sundry | articles of Roman Catholic doctrine, we decline to give any | aaswer to the Reverend George Sutherland, seeing that he is| not our father confessor, nor the confessor of any person else, | Catholic or Protestant. If we were disposed to imitato his | bad example, which we are not, we might ask him if he| believed in the thirty-nine articles of the Established Church | of England, or pinned his faith to the peculiar tencts of the Wesleyans, Baptists, Unitarians, Bible Christians, Quakers, Latter-day Saints, or any other of the innumerable denomina- tions opposed to the * Church of Rome.’’ We have no right to catechiso Mr. Sutherland upon matters of faith —upon questions involving the spiritual welfare of erring mortals ; and if he had the good sense and decency which a Christian | minister is supposed to possess, he would do unto us as we are inclined to dountohim. We belieye that Mr. Sutherland has, at present, the use of a pulpit in this City. Let him there indulge his oratorical flights as much as he mgy please; and if he cannot bear the name or the sight of a Catholic, we have | ng objection that he should evaporate his pure Christian zeal

in anathemas against his obnoxious fellow-mortals, as long as his hangs shal] last. But we have no taste for newspaper con-

troversy on religious questions, especiully when -their dis-

cussion would lead to no other end than setting Catholic and. Protestant by the ears, in a community where both have lived in peace and good fellowship long before Mr. Sutherland or the other editors of the Protector suffered the erratic flicker ot their genius to show what heathens we were, and sought to instil ‘into ‘our minds such views of charity, forbearance

and brotherly love, as appear to us foreign to the admoni- tions of that All-wise and merciful Being in whose vineyard they pretend to labour ; but wherein, we fear, they turn their attention more particularly to the cultivation of poisonous weeds,

One word more, and we have done with the Protector, atleast forthe present. Weare told that we have shown a disposition to create a ‘* row,’’ on religious matters we suppose; and that our editorials have been of an ‘‘ inflammatory” nature. We deny the truth of the imputation, and dare our accuser to pro- duce the proof. We have never uttered nor printed an offen- sive word against any denomination of Protestants, while the Church in which we were born has been constantly reviled by the Protector in every possible shape. Our apparent supine- ness has been often rebuked by our more impetuous co-reli- gionists; and had we given attention to many suggestions offered, a ** row’? would, perhaps, have occurred. The gentle- men of the Protector have repeatedly offered us their coat-tails to tread upon; but we have felt, and still feel, that our wisest course was to step aside, and let them vociferate and scold as long as they pleased. Had we shown less forbearance, they would probably display less ill-temper now. There is one sentence in the editorial under review to which we give our entire concurrence. It is, that ‘‘ Protestants are quiet and peaceable.’’ It is our most earnest desire that they should be so. God forbid that we should ever do any thing to disturb their peace. The editors of the Protector haye, however, laboured fo produce a far different state of things; but it is consolatory that the editors of the Protector do not conform to the wishes or reflect the opinions of the Protestants of Prince Edward Island.

THE PUBLIC DEBT.

WE are enabled, from a perusal of the Public Accounts now before the House of Assembly, to give the following correct

the financial year on the 3lst January last. © 'To this we have appended, by way of contrast, a statement of the public debt on the 31st January, 1850, the year before the introduction of Responsible Government. The latter is taken from the printed Journal of the Assembly for that year, and it will be seen that the balance against the Colony ‘hen was £28,579 11s. 04d., when the expenditure for roads, bridges, wharfs, and education was a mere trifle compared to what it is at present, and no outlay whatever for the purchase of Township Jands. Now the balance against the Colony is only £14,868 3s. 34d., after purchasing two large estates — one consisting of seven town- ships —and spending about seventeen thousand pounds a year for the education of the youth of the country, and the con- struction and improvement of the people’s roads, bridges and wharfs ; besides which we have, as an off-set against the debt, 45,000 acres of land yet to sell. But, in fact, this balance of

the £11,500 Treastiry Notes in circulation, the actual balance bearing interest will be only £3,368 3s. 3jd.— a sum so small as to be hardly worth taking into account in a view of the public finances of any country.

The Tories have, for.several months, been making a furious outery about what they styled the insolvency of the Goyernment, beeause Treasury W Dian like every other kind of paper mo- ney in times of general depression of business, were not easily convertible into cash. They might as well attempt to convince us that the Bank — supported by all the monied men in the country — was likewise insolvent, because it found its cash getting scarce, and was compelled to suspend. It is not im- probable that the statement we now give will be misrepre- sented by the Opposition press from vindictive feelings, and to serve paltry party purposes ; but we rely on the report of the Committee of Public Accounts, appointed by the House of Assembly, bearing testimony to its general correctness, That report will be published in the course of the present Session ; and from it the public will see that the finances of the country were never in a more healthy and satisfactory condition.

While on this subject we may state that a misunderstanding | has arisen between the Government and the gentlemen who

| lately filled the office of Auditors, which terminated in the {removal of the latter. In preparing and classifying the | Publie Accounts for the Legislature, they were desired to give the Government credit for £15,002 Is. ld., balances due on

rnment with the entire cost of purchase of Township lands already referred to. With this reasonable request the Au- ditors refused to comply—alleging that they had no vouchers for the balances stated to be due, although they had the books containing the entries before them; and they persisted in striking the balance of debt against the Colony at £29,870 4s. 44d. instead of £14,868 3s. 34d., as shown below. When public officers thus set themselves in opposition to the Govern- ment, the latter have no alternative but to cispense with their services.

SAYINGS AND DOINGS LN THE ASSEMBLY. No. 1.

WE shall give in this paper, during the Session, a short account, with a running commentary, of such sayings and doings of our collective wisdom, as may appear worthy of being embalmed in our editorial columns.

The only debates of any consequence, to which We listened, during the past week, occurred on Wednesday and Friday evenings. ‘The first was a rambling discussion about agricul- ture, horses, cattle, sheep, pigs, &c., called forth by a petition of the Royal Agricultural Society, in which they gave a state- ment of the expenses incurred in conducting the Model Farm near Charlottetown,—also, an account of their stock, farming implements, and debts, — and asked the Assembly to inform them whether they should sell off, and pay their debts; or whether they would grant a sufficient sum to put the Farm in working order, and enable them to discharge their liabilities. The sum required for this purpose was said to be £1596 (some shillings) +£996 of which were required to pay the debt#due ; £500 to replace Stock ‘ost at sea; and £100 for the rent of the Farm, ‘bis was a very considerable sum to ask when the Legislature were enjoined to practise economy and retrench- ment in their expenditure, and after so much money having been given during the last two years to try the experiment of model farming. It was evident from the tone of the petition that the Society had not much heart in the experiment ; and a large majority of the Assembly at once made up their minds to grant no more public money for itssupport. The principal topic of discussion—seasoned by some cloquent disquisitions on the quality of the Stock — was, where the aforesaid Stock should be sold. Several hon. members were of opinion that the sale of the cattle and horses should be distributedgequally between the three Counties ; others contended that the House were entitled to no control over the disposition of that property, and that the Society might sell it where they pleased. This opinion ultimately prevailed, and the House adopted a reso- lution, by a large majority, stating that it was inexpedient to grant further legislative aid to the Model Farm.

The Debate on Friday night had a little more spice and bit- terness in it. The second reading of the Fishery Reserves Bill was the first order of the day. The Hon. Colonial Secretary moved to go into the order of the day, and in doing so, deli- vered a long address explanatory of the principles of the Bill, the views of Her Majesty’s Government, and the action of previous Assemblies on the subject ; and quoted from numerous public documents to illustrate his views. As soon as he had concluded his speech, up sprang Mr. Pope, the new member from Bedeque, and, with an air and actitude which threatened destruction to the presumptuous Colonial Secretary, stigma- tized the Bill as an electioneering dodge, and insinuated that its introducer was a charlatan and deceiver. He closed his brilliant speech by movmg a resolution to the effeet: that be- fore the House took any further proceedings on the Bill, His Excellency the Lieutenant Governor should be requested to lay before the House any despatches he may have received from the Imperial Government on the subject of the Fishery Reserves. The Colonial Secretary survived the attack, and a good account was given of Mr. Pope during the rest of the evening. (N. B. Mr. P. scoms to be ambitious of dividing with the Hon. Mr. Haviland the glories of leadership in Her Majesty's Opposition.

This might be expected of a young gentleman — unacquainted

conspicuous than his commonsense.) The Hou. Mr. Haviland seconded the resolution in a short and temperate speech ; and the Hon. Mr. Palmer delivered himself of a thundering phil- lipic against the Exeeutive for daring to violate the principles of Responsible Goyerrment, (which be denounced as humbug a few yearsago), in not only not bringing down all despatches as soon as they were asked for, but before they were asked for. Ile was reminded of some little derelictions of duty, in this respect, on the part of the Holl & Palmer Government in 1894 ; but tho significant fact was strongly impressed upon the atten- tion of the honorable and learned member, that it was the right and privilege of the majority, and not of the minority, to require and, if necessary, compel the production of despatches. The Col. Secretary, some time previously, assured the House, that there was only one despatch on the subject in the hands of the Government, which simply authorized legislative action on the question of the Fishery Reserves, and that that would be-brought down before any progress was made in the discus- sion of the Bill. The speeches deliyered by the Opposition, after this announcement, had very little effect ; and when the division was taken there were only seven members found in favor of Mr. Pope’s ameadment, and fourteen against it.

We do not remember any debate in which stronger party feeling was manifested than the one under notice, and the di- yision shows the declining strength and caste of the Opposition. Two members were absent on this occasion: Honbles. Messrs. Wightman and Montgomery. Had they been present, the former would haye yoted aguinst Mr. Pope’s amendment,— the latter in favor of it. So, the whole strength of the minori- ty, out of a Ifouse of twenty-four members, does not exceed eight. And yet we were repeatedly told by the Opposition Press, and by the enemies of the Government generally, that the Administration was too weak to yenture to meet the re- presentatives of the people in the present session !

‘officer’s love of truth, both in youth and manhood, has been

3% the impression that the Examiner is used rather as a vehicle

Island, and desires to say, that he has read, although he is not certain that he thoroughly understands, the letter which he | did the honour to address him through the columns of the last | Islander.

Lieutenant Colonel Gray appears to labour under the im- pression that a correspondent of the Examiner has cast some reflections upon him for presumed want of courage and veracity. The Editor of the Examiner regrets that the gallant Colonel! should have betrayed any sensitiveness upon these important points. The Editor, &c., has no doubt that Lieutenant Colonel Gray's courage has been conspicuous on many & well-fought field, under thet banner which has ‘

“ Braved, a thousand years, the battle and the breeze;”

and he has equal confidence in the belief, that the distinguished

with{the usages of parliamentary lite—whose pretension is more |

gentleman of such nice sense ef honour would utter a faleehood,

the Editor, &e., charitably supposes that the ardusus military occupations of the gallant Colonel has given him small leisure for the study of mental philosophy ; and trusts that, in his suburban retreat (as he is not too old to learn) he will be enabled more accurately to draw the line of demarcation between argument and personal recrimination. With the view of assisting his studies, the Editor,of the Examiner begs te recommend to his attentive perusal the files of the Islander for the last fifteen years, the Protector and the Monitor for the short period they have been befere the world; and although comparisons are said to be odious, the Editor of the Examiner will cheerfully lend Lieutenant Colonel Gray a file of the last named journal, confident the result of his investigation will not reflect much odium upon it.

The Editor of the Examiner desires to congratulate Lieu- tenant Colonel Gray on the good sense he has manifested in disavowing any further connexion with the Protector than the payment of twelve shillings annually towards its support. This is certainly a large sum compared to the small value he receives. And the Editor, &c., further congratulates Lieu- tenant Colonel Gray on his good taste in paying fifteen shil- lings a year for the Examiner, which, of course, he would not do unless he thought it was worthy of that munificent patron- age. At the same time, the Editor, &c., desires to remind Lieutenant Colonel Gray that his ‘* help’’ was never solicited on behalf of those ‘‘ wise and brilliant lucubrations’’ of the Examiner, which would be sure to command the favour of the public, even if he were, to use his own elegant phraseology, ‘* blotted out of everlasting creation.’’

Lieutenant Colonel Gray requests the Editor of the Exami- ner not to tell his readers that he is envious of the Queen's Printer’s ‘‘ thousand a year.’’ The Editor, &c., admires the magnanimity of his gallant correspondent, but he begs to refer him to the late Auditors’ statement of the public accounts, where he will find that the Queen’s Printer’s emoluments for the pasp year do not exceed £719 3s. 244. But oh! the veracious Lieutenant Colonel scorns to tell an untruth !
