Tar letter of “Observer,” which, to-day, appears on the first page of the Examiner, opens the discussion of a very disagreeable But, however disagreeable, it must be thoroughly ventilated. In their present temper, the people of Prince Edward Island will be satisfied with nothing short of a full knowledge of all the facts connected with the sequestration of the Governor-General and Princess Louise in the narrow cabins of a constantly moving little steamer, while they might have beén enjeying the enlarged quiet and freedom of Government House. And if the people find that.the blame lies with any servant of their’s—whether the Government or the Governor— the offender shall assuredly feel the weight of their displeasure.

The Patriot, we observe, promises a régular broadside upon the effender. We have no desire to forestall the Patriot ; and we shall now only correct its erroneous interpretation of a paragraph which recently appeared in the Examiner. [In its violent and ill-timed article of Thursday last, the Patriot declares that we offered a studied insult to the Lieutenant Governor. Noth- ing of the sort. Such an interpretation could only have emanated from the partisan imagination of an ill-tempered mind. Why should we insult a gentlemen who, but yesterday, we cordially welcomed to the gubernatorial office? The full intent ana meaning of the paragraph is upon its face. It became our duty te announce that th® Vice-Regal Party would stay on board the Druid. We did so in-the way we believed the unpleasant news would be least un- palatable to the people and least calculated ‘o produce disagreeable results at a junc-

ure when and cordiality were necessary to a suitable reception. But it was being industriously reperted that the reason why the distinguished visitors had to stay on the Druid was that the Government had failed to put Government House in order. We were in. formed, on the best authority, that the Government had done everything they could do—had complied with every request of the Lieutenant Governor—and ,that the house was in excellent order. We stated that fact. Then knowing that the people would <eeply regret the sequestration of the Princess, and presuming that the Lieu- tenant Governor equally regretted it, we expressed that feeling. And who should be more likely to regret the untoward oc- than the Lieutenant Gov- occupant = of

people’s indignation has fallen upon him. '

And though we know many excuses may fairly be offered in his behalf—though we believe he can show that the sequestration of the Marquis and Princess was self-chosen —we very greatly fear that nothing we or any one can say for him, will entirely re-

lieve the minds of the people of the suspicion that he was not as hearty

in his communications with the pro- spective visitors as the representative hest of this leyal Province should have been. :

Now, just a few words with reference to ““Observer's” letter. ‘‘Observer” says truly that the Local Government did not invite the Geverner General. I[t is just possible that the Government, having but recently taken charge of a depleted Treas- ury, and knowing that the people have not

hard times, did not feel justified in inviting, igned to it by him.

years. If this be so, how can the Govern- JOHN a any, ment be blamed ? or how dare ‘‘ Observer ” aii : insinuate that the Government intended to

themselves, and to threw the burden on the Lieutenant Governor ? The Lieutenant Governor may not'be— we believe he is not— so much to blame as some persons say he is. But most assuredly ‘‘ Observer’ does wreng when he attempts to throw the whele blame wpon the Government.

Another point. Notwithstanding the ‘‘ chaff” of the Montreal Star, we prefer te think that it is the duty of the Lieutenant Governor to act the public host to distinguished officials of Gov- ernment who may visit the Province. If it be not his} duty, whose is it? Is the Province without any official to ex- tend, on its behalf, the hand of welcome to Ch’town, Aug. 19, ’79. those whom its people delight to honor !

An official with $7,000 a year, who is not called upon to entertain, and whose duties are fer the most part nominal or honorary, can, we think, afford to live in his own house, use his own furniture, and burn his own fuel. But surely there is no] doubt about the matter. Every one expects the Lieut.
