it cannot be a matter of wonder, Mr. Maditor, undey such grcumstances, that the tenantry shodld hecome alarmed ; that they Convene’ a meeting and selocted three highly re- eetable and intel) gent gentlemen to wait upon his Excellency | the Lieutenant Governor in the dilemma for his Opinion, who, a short time age in passing through the settlements, offered, jt appears ominous his influence to allay any fears or dificul- ties that Might arise in reepect to thetr tenures = Thus, it appears, bis Excellency is awnre the present calm is but the | reaction Which follows the stormy struggle in the ascendancy | of the proprietary te power. Lao humor of the people re- wires Rot the goud of proprietary aggression to stir up the ae ae into action for the defence of their hearthstones. Lhey | think and reason amongst themselves upon the statements made on the hust ngs at the late election. Phat the pre-| prietors obtained their estates from the crown ou the condition | of paying rent for the same, and, in failore thereof, their} lands beeame forfeited. That the crown, m the memorable! year 2851, transferred over to the Legislature of this [sland tor @ consideration, its right to exact u!l duces and forfeitures, &c.; and that when she poople saderstand this fully they will return wea t. the Assembly pledged to setue this impor- tant qu stion in a just and constitutional manner, First, by | ing @ Bill confirming tho titles of all freehoiders being actual gattiers. Secondly. by proceeding before a Court ot Escheat tha: she proprietors shall be allowed thore an op; or- | tumty to make good aclaim, whereby they exact more muney | from the pockets of the peo; le than ts called for in sappurt of |} the public revenue. If the proprietors can su >port the claiu | i set up to the lands of the Colony then the Land Question will be finaily settled; bat W,on the contrary, these estates eal become publie property, every leaseholder will be dis eharg’d from his obligations, and it will remain for their | members to say how the land is best to bo disposed of for the | interests of the constituencies gonera ly. In closing thia letter, [ wish to remark, as it appears the tonantry have applied to his Excellency on the matter in dis | pute affecting their leaseholds, it is probable they wil be| guided by his advice (if he takes the responsibility) whie' 1 have no fear of its being otherwise than it ought to be, from | a gentleman holding the honorable position that he fils; but, as his Excellency may not be in possession of the infurmatica to enable him, as he no doubt wishes, to protect the tenantry, I think, undereuch circumstances, it would have been better tor them to have applied tv his Excellency in Council (which course is open and 16 the one for them to pursne) because, his Excellency in Council, with their advice, would be hotter qualified to offer an opinion, the result of which would been placed on the records of the Fxecutive for the guidance of fu- ture administrati ns aod which they would be found to respect. But, in the absence of his Exeellency, what guarantee have! the tenantry to show, further than their statement of his Ex- |

eellency’s private opinion of the matter, which may be laushed

at byan agent acting on the part ofan unprincipled landlord ?| The tenantry must also remember, if they acquicsce in the | right of the agent, at this time, to deliver up their leases, how can they at another withstand a similar demand for a different purpose probably to spoil them of their improvements ?
