Sir;
In the [-‘,;tm,c.'s from the Land Purcliaisc Act, for the use of the Tcnantry, printed iind dis- tribiitcd bv the Uovernnient lust winter. at the public expense, we find in the tirst Extract, which is the 10th clause of the Act, “that the Commissioner of Public Lands, is eiiipoweri-,d, if he reiluire it, to take from C\'l3l.‘i".'l.‘€lll.l.Il.t,'\Vl1() becomes a Puroliaser, the siini of _ ive Sliillrngs, for the survey and description of his location_; and for preparing the con\‘eyancc_anil _diipli- cute thereof, the further sum offive Shilling» and no more.” And in the 12th Extract, which is the 4t'ith clause of the Act, “ The Uoinmis- sioner 01' Public Lands is authorized and eni-
owc,-ed, on receiving payment of the uiiioiint due on any judgment, to zickriowlcdgc sii.tisl;_ic- tion on the record of the Judgmeiit, or to give sncli other receipt, discharge or release, as the circumstances of the case may req_ui_rc;“ and not one word about taking or requiring Fees. In the name of common lioncsty, how can they exact the sum of thirteen slillings and four-
ence, over and aliove the aipount due, on each and every bond, as no mention is iiiude of any such Fee in the Act; some from four have paid it, some have refused to pay it; all consider it an unjust iind illegal demand.
Sir, there was a great noise made about tak- ing extra fee a few years ago, it seems there is none now, that times have changed, and that the who made the noise then, have changed wit them. By givin the above a place in your valuable periodica , perhaps itmiiy be the means of keeping in many a poor Ii‘.-irnici-’s pocket, thirteen shillings and four pence.
I remain, Your obedient servant, rroiuiita.

At astiiiie when the charge for every neces- gary of life is so exorbitantly high,and when

N0 dillllit, pitiable in the extreme- would it not be advisable for the people of Charlottetown and its neighbourhood, to meet together for the purpose ot' forming an addi- tional Society for the relief of _their destitute bi-ethren—tlie members of- which Society to consist of natives of the Island, and old resi- dents of the liice. It is well known. that _the Benevolent rish Society, with all its praise- worthy exertions, is unable to meet the many demands a ii its charitable aid. . ’l‘lie Ladies, Dorcas Society merely confine their operations to providing the poor with clothing, and nothin more can be expected from them, with choir limited means. I have no doubt, that gucli a Society would be liberally supported, having had the opinions of many well isposed
