With respect to the burning of the barns on the Tracadie estate, is there any reason to sup- pese that it was accidental? Not the shadow ofa reason. The dwelling house having been burnt befurehand, which was the resu't of acci- deut,we believe—there was nv person living about the premises—and the barns could only have been fired by some persens living in the vicinity ; no

stranger from a distance could be suscected of

the crime. Whe the persons were whe commit |

follows :—

« Resolved, That we, the Tenartry of ———- Individually and collectively, virtualiy and solewn- ly, pledge our honour and fidelity tu each other, to withhold the further liquidation of rent and| arrears of rent, and thus voluntarily enroll our | respective hames as a Pennant Organization, to | resist the distratnt, coercion, eyection, seizure and sale for rat and arrears of rent, uotila compro | mise be effected in conformity with resolutions | proposed and carried by the meetings in Lots | $3, 49 and 50; and further understood that each | signature hereto anuexed bear a proportionate share of expenses in connection with this Organ- ization. %

There can be no mistaking the meaning or tendency of this Pledge. It bas not been revoked by any subsequent act of the League or Union,— indeed, we have abundant proof that it is ob- served with “ fidelity,” wherever there is a chance of showing observance to it. How can the League say that they are animated by a spirit of wyalty, which sunply means respect for the laws, 80 long as they have such a pledge as the | foregoing upon their records, which strikes at the very foundations of all law and order?) We de- plore the existence of the landlord system as much as they do—we have struggled against it | longer and harder than any one of the Leaguers | has dont; and we will still labour to effect,

But

}in a constitutional way, its abolition. we cannot refrain from warning the tenantry

the Tenant League.

It is unnecessary to say on | Law's or the League's. The League will un-

questionably go to the wall; but much individual | suffering will be the result of its mischievous | organization. We shall, we know, be execrated for this bold language. If it is bold, it is honest,

The total catch of seals throughout the island is estimated at over 250.000. The papers say that the spring has opened well so tar as relates to the cod fishery, a very fair quantity being taken daily. The fish appear to be of an excellent description aud large, and it is hoped that this early prouse of success may be but the fore-runner of an abundant fishery.

The Daily News says the weather is all that could be desired by our farmers. The spring opened unusually early, and, with the exception of one or two frosts within the past fortnight, the season has been warm and genial, though dry.

Returning vo the subject of the recent burnings, it is notorione that sundry writs for rent were served on the day of their occurrence by the Sheriffs bailiff, accompanied by Mr. John A McDonald—that these writs were served on par- ties who declared their determination to pay o rent in conformity with the leading principle of the society hnown as the Tenant League—that thus writted are known to be members of the Tenant League—that

and that the burning occurred almost iminediately after the service. We are informed that the Ten- ant League is composed of men of character, who would not lend themselves to such a lawless act. Whatever may be the general composition of the League, we know there are several very respect- avle gentlemen connected with it; and knowing that the League is based upon a most unsound and dishonest principle, we have been often aston- ished at seeing the names of those gentlemen used ir connection with it. We know we shall! be reviled for using this language—we know we have friends amongst the Tenant Leaguers who cherish unkind thoughts towards us because we du net publickly or privately countena movements.

MARITIME

vernment requires of them a very different course of action than what it is geverally known they have all along been pursuing.

Governor Gordon's undisguised sympathy with the anti-Unionist party in New Brunswick is now pretty well understood largely to have influenced the electors of that Province. He goes home not to return. Immediately after the arrival of the Asia, Governor Mc Dounell, as is well kuown, hastened off te Fredericton, probably to com- pare notes with Governor Gordon; end already the tidings come that Gordon is re-calied. There is no doubt, whatever, that public sentiment in | New Brunswick ts rapicly changing on Uge subject |ot Union of the Provinces. In St. John, we have

it upon undoubted authority, that the tide is setting heavily Unionward—so much so, that no supporter of the Government could now tace the constituency for a departmental election with the least chance of success. This explains the uneasy sensations manifested by certain pro- minent anti-Unionists in the New Brunswick House of Assembly, and the determination to send to England an anti-Union delegation. The current is setting in strongly tewards Union in all parts of the Province, it is said, but particu- larly so in St. John; and any dissolution of the present House is strongly deprecated by the Government party. Such an event, we should suppose not very likely to occur, unless possibly as arising out of a new Governor to arrive at an early day, though even then rather an unlikely event—the dissolution we mean. It is their fears that are making cowards of the auti- Unionists of New Brunswick, we apprehend.— Halifax Unionist, June 9.

The Geuera) has on several occasions Adminis- tered the Government of Nova Scotia, and in times of considerable excitement; and we imust admit, under all the circumstances of the case, that for the most part he has exhibited great tact and marked ability in his capacity of Adminis- trator. ‘The amenity of his manner, the gemal influences which he exerts on all around him, and the high integrity which characterizes his con- duct, have won tor hima place in the affections of the people of Nuva Soeotia, and more especially of those who, in the discharge of his public duties, were brought into immediate contact with hii, and of which persons of all polities bear testimony.

The Union of the British Provinces.

A brief account of the several Conferences held in the Maritime Provinces and in Canada, in September and October, 1864, on the proposed

’ . Confederation of the Provinces, together with a REPORT OF THE SPEECHES delivered by the Delegates from the Provinces, on important publie oceasions. Compiled by the Hon. Edward Whelan, M.P.P.. (one of the Prince Edward Island Delegates.) Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island: Printed by G. T. Haszard, 1865.

The above little work contains 239 pages. It has just been issued from the press, ae is hand- somely bound in boards, cotton and roan. It con- tains the principal speeches delivered on the question of Confederation during the progress of the Conferences in the Maritime Provinces and in Canada, with a brief narrative interweaving the events which called forth the speeches. The speeches have been carefully revised and corrected —in most cases by the speakers themselves, and all superfluous matter relating to merely passing inci- dents eliminated from them.

Those who take an interest in the question of Confederation — (and their number is not on the decrease, but the reverse,)—may, it is hoped, find this Compilation useful for instructive reference Only a limited number is reserved forsale. They may be had at the Bookstores in the course of the present week. Prices—3s (Boards)—4s (Cotton) —4s 6d (Roan). [Jnne 5, 1865
