In deriding Mr. Bolger, the Patriot reflects upon Mr. Bolger’s property-holding constitu- ents. Mr. Bolger was selected for the place he oceupies by about one-sixth of ‘the Legisla- tive Council electors of this Island. An in- sult to Mr. Bolger means an insult to them. it suits the Patriot just now to pretend to be very anxious that these men should continue to be specially represented ; but the contumely it seeks to cast upon Mr. Bolger proves that the Patriot is shamming. By the way, Mr. Bolger was the originator of that classic phrase, ‘‘ Sit down, Lawson.”
