lowing conclusiocs ere reached —

“First—That, prior to 1590, the Duteh had established themselves on the coast of Guiana.

Second—That prior to 1596 the Span- iards had established no settlement in Guiana.

Third—That by 1°46 the Dutch settle- ments in Guiana extended along the coa-t the whole way from the river Maroni to the Barima and inlend to various points in the interior upon the rivers E-sequibo, Luyuni, Pomeroov,° Waini, sod Barima and tbeir tributaries,

Fourth —That up Q1725 the only set- ilemeot of Spaniard’ tn Guiana was San Thome De Gaayana, on the south bank of the Orinoco, originally founded in 1596 ta rite shown on the Sketch map.

Fifth—That between 1723 and 1796 the only additional settlenents funded by Spaniards in Guiana, were those estal lished by the Capuchin Missions south of the Orinoco, in the direction of the river Yuruari and two villages on the Upper Orinoco, several miles above San Thome de Guayana.

Sixth—That Dutch occuzation, to the extent above indicated, was perfectly well known in Spain, wod that the attempts of the Spanish to dispossess the Dutch had wholly failed.

Seventh—Tiat subsequently to 1796 Great Britain has continuously rema‘ned in possession, and her subjects have oceupie? further portions, of the territory to which the Dutch established their title. From the first settlemen’s to 1648, the Dutch appear to have been the -firet. Early in the i6th century*they tarned, attention to Guiana, and there is abundant evidence frem Spani-h ‘ources that, during the latter half of the century prior to 1590, the Dntch establisGed themselves on the coast of Guiaca. In 1595, the. English explorer, Captain Charles Leigh, found the Dutch established near the moutirof the Orinoco, & fact, which is confirmed from Spanish officers. The first settlement by Spain is Guiana was in 1526, when Antonio De La Huz Berric founded San Thome De Guay- ana on the South bank of the Orinoco. A de=patch from Koqne De Montes, Treasurer of Cumana io the King of Spain, dated April, 1596, shows that the Spaniards did pot then hold any part of Guana.

On the other hand-ttis #liewn that the the Venezuela is supposed to be based, so far as it has been presented to Great Britain ai different times during the last fifty

main grounds upon which claim of

URTTERS 10 THE EDITOR,

Sir,—Councillor Nicholson is to be con- gratulated upon bis eensible, practical | resolution re the Park roadway. Negotia- | tion is preferable to litigation, and if car- ried out in the proper, business-like spirit as promised in the initiatory proceedings, there can be no doubt of a satisfactory re- sult. :

ward four is twice as well off, for he has the privilege of voting fur two out of the eight; while in ward five the advantage is tripled by the casting of three votes. Ia ward one a citizen with a large interest in the city can only vote for one councillor, while his servant man on a two dellar poll tax can vote for three councillors in ward five. Is there anything reasonable or f-ir in such a voting sy-tem? Then the cas didate in ward one is only obliged to trav- erse two streets and canvass two or three hundred voters. In ward five the unfor- \unate victim has to travel! over on--third the area of the city and call upon ten to eleven hundred voters. Is this fuir to the ward five candidate ? ; Practical business men, such as are ia the Council, could very easily submit a plan to the legislature which would rem edy all the evils here referred to. The city might be divided into six wards, ward five being subdivided into two, with two councillors for each of the six wards. This would make a Council cf twelve, a very good one for business purposes, An other arrangement would be to divide ward five into two wards, with two councillors for each, leaving the other wards as at present. This would make a council of nine—an odd nun:ber, which would have this virtue, a cessation of casting votes. Dividing ward four irt> two wards, and ward -five into three wards, with only one Councillor to each ward, would Lave a decided advantage over the present system, although it would make no change in the number of repre sentatives. Nine Councillofs elected by a yote of the whole city would al-o mect the approval of a large number of our citizens. Any of these arrangements wou'd be better than the existing state of affairs. Even a “one man one vote” plan added to the present system in wards four and five would be a change for the better. A ballot vote is another change most urgently needid, accompanied by the severest regulations against bribery and corruption. No one, except tho-e who have been closely associated with civic elections, can form any idea of the extent to which this latter evil is practis-

ed. Liquor, money, free feeds, promises of position, employment, &c., sufficient to do crelit to

an American presidential campaign. Near- ly athird of the votere—the patronage class—wait till near mid-day and then vote forthe ahead candidate. A ballot vote in the simplest furm possible would put the working man in s position to vote as he pleased, without fear of anyone. It would compel all to use their judgment in recording their votes, as they could not possibly know who the head candidates are, and it would save them from the threat, “I'll remember you” being whisper- ed in their ears by the candidate against whom they vote. A clause inserted in our act of incorporation, authoriz ng the Cout.- cil byja by -law, to prescribe their own mode of election, by ballot, or otherwise. To disqualify for personal bribery, to puu- ish the receiver of abribe—I would almost go further and punish the man who askx

for a vote—would add very much to the purity of our civic elec- tions, and to the character and con-

duct of our representatives. As a safeguard against the council passing a bye-law with- improper provisions, it could be made subject to the approval of the Goyernor-in- Council.

Iu the pre-ent city council are men fully competent to undertake the drafting of and presenting to the legislature these necessary omendments. I would not ask them to follow necessarily any one cf the sugg tions I have cffered in.the particu- lar form in which | present them. They are fully competent to deal wth them in their own way. One thing of itself thould encourage then to fearlessly mect the situation, and that is the impossibility

of making matters worse than they = are. Any change cannot help but prove for the better. They can-

not make matters worse. If they are un- willing to assume the entire responsibility let them ask the concurrence of a meeting of citizens, say in the Megistrate’s court- room to take into consideration these pro- posal, bu} do not under any consideration allow the present disgraceful state of af- fairs to continue. Whatever alteration is made will,positively and assuredly add to the efficiency of our city government, and it will bea proud boast for Councillor Nicholson and bis colleagues if, through their efforts, this necessary and important constitutional benefit is secured to Char- lottetown.

Sir,—As the present contract for con- veying the mails from Cardigan Station to Dundas and Annandale, is soon to expire a few words for the information of intend- ing contractors, may not be out of place: The present service has been very far from satisfactory to tne public in general, owing tothe irregularity of the mails arriving at the above offices. As a remedy, I would suggest that intending contractors contract fora sum sufficient toenable them to carry maileand pase- engers only, so that they can arrive at the offices on time, and deliver the mails every mail day, not once or twice a week, as has too often been the case in the past.

As it has been the practice of couriers to carry all kinds of freight m conjunction with the mails, they conld not, with loaded teams, make the offices on time. I would suggest that the next cour‘er, whcever he

PARLIAMENT OF CANADA.

Debate on the Remedial Bil!

W. F, McLean Hopes That the Bill Will Be Dropped,

Devlin Scores Greenway and the Grits.

Orrawa, March 12.

Sir Charles Tupper, replying to Mr. Laurier, said he would eonfer with Sir Donald Smith, and ascertain. whether t'ie telegram on which Mr. Greenway’s reply vo Sir Donald Smith was based could be given tothe House. The debate on the Remedial Bill was resumet by Sir Rich- ard Cartwright, who spoke ia opposition to the Bill.

He was followed by W. F. McLean. As @ young man and asa Canadian, he ap- pealed to Parliament to keep such ques- tions as this out «f politice, and to devute all their attention to the building up of th's great Dominion. As a Conservative, he said that Ontario and the Conserva- tives of Ontario were opposed to the mea su'e, a d he urged the Government to for bear «re it was too late.

Mr. McLeod supported the bill.

C. B. Devlin, the Grit representative of Ottawa County, and woo was the star Grit stumper in Cape Breton against the Government School policy, dec!ared he would vote in favor of the Bill. He den- ieJ that the Bishops had threat«ned the electcrs in conn-ction with the Schcol Question, and severely arraigned Mr. Clarke Wallace for his stricture male on the Catholic educational institutions, He had lost faith, he raid, in the grit party of Manitoba which had broken 2 pledge solemnly given by it that neither the Freneh language nor separa‘e scho ls would be abolished. The trotestant ma jority had never asked that the righ s which the minority possessed should te taken away fromthem. It had ben a matter of expediency with the grits in the Province and not one of princip'e. (Hear, hear.) Mr. Devlin severely scored Green- way, Martin, and other anti-Catholic grits. Mr. Devlin asserted that he had no faith in Greenway doing justice and was sur-

rised that the Government was going to invite him to a couference. He concluded by a-se: ting that federal intervention was n-cessary in view Of the law and constitu- tion, and that while the Bill was not per- fect it should be amended in committee.

MORE TAXES AND MORE DEBT

New Branswick Now Feels It! Mr. Blair Anticipates Mr. Peters.

Er. Jony, March 12.

The Blair Government has sprung a8 @ surprise on its supporters by introduc- ing a bill providing that the county tax for schools shall be increased from the present rata of thirty cents per bead to fifty cents. In the last election contest the opponents of the government warned the people that there would bean increase in direct taxation if the government were returned to power. This is the first in- stalment. It is also proposed to increase the local taxes for roads, which will prob- ably be preliminary to the reduction of the provincial grant. The Leader of the Government has informed a caucus of its supporters thet it is proposed to flvat a new loan of $400,000. The members also have been sounded in respect to the pro- position of the government to take over from the municipalities the contro! of the liquor licenses.
