-<—-- MIS-DIRECTED MINISTERIAL INFLUENCE.

i influence of the Minister of | he Interiur has lately been brought to}

ir in a manner most reprehensible. At public expense, two oxen were, some | rs ag, purehased for the use of the Indians residing on Lennox Island. Last summer, they became “ breachy;”’ nd disputes having arisen respecting |

With the/ details of the bargain into which he en- | Joe Snake" we do not pre- | 1 to be cognizant. At‘all events, Mr. | Yeo obtaived possession of the oxen. But | the cirewmstances connected with the| whole transaction were such as to induce Theophilus Stewart, Esq., the very effi |

We only know that he applied to the Minister of the Interior to stop a judicial | investigation; and the Minister granted request. He telegraphed to Me | Stewart to dise and | as Mr. Stew his ihtenatians | from the Department of the Interior he |

There is in this transaction something so thoroughly in keeping with | Mr. Laird’s antecedents ‘that we should | have been surprised had he allowed the | opportunity to pass without acting as he | has done. erted in Dominion politics since his acces- sion to office has beem to further the ap- | pointment of incompetent officials in this | {sland ; and, in order to secure the vote of | Mr. Yeo in favor of the present Govern- | ment, to interpose his influence in depriv- ing of the justice of the law the Indians | of Lennox Island—the poor unfortunates whom it is his special duty to shield und protect. We learn that this imfamous | act hes given rise to the just indigaation of the people of Prince County. If.

CRIMINALS LABORING.

We notice that a Bill has been intro- duced into the House ot Commons, which , gives the Lieutenant Governor of any | province power to authorize the employ- | ment, outside the jail limita, of criminals sentenced to imprisonment with hard labor for offences against the criminal law of the Dominion. If the criminals of

this prevince were, as they should be, under charge of the Domivion Govern- ment, the Lieutenant Governor might soon be in a position to utilize them in
