‘ Fisnsnr Rnsnnvls.~—Several oﬂicial documents on this important subject, recently laid before both Houses of the

upon this long pending question will be read with interest. The gist ofit may be gathered from the followintr extracts ;— “The word “ Cousts”.has no clearly deﬁned lebnal meanina

“and its meaning in any particular Grant maycdepend oii the other part of the deed, and the description and local situation of the premises—We should conceive, however, that,~.geuerally, it would be taken to apply to those places in which the sea ebbs and ﬂows—and that it would extend, therefore, to those portions ofthe Bays. Harbours, and Ri— vers, in which there was an ebb and flow ofthe sea.

_ “If the grants be ofthe whole of the Islands, the reserva- tion would appear to apply to the whole extent ofthe coast round the Islands that were granted—and in the grant of which this reservation occurs.”

PUBLIC MEETING—AT NEW LONDON. In conformity With public notica, a Meeting ofthe Inhabitants of New London and adjacent Settlements

the 12th instant. Mr. David Simpson having been

~ unanimously adopted. Moved by Mr. John McNeil], Jun.—Secnnded by Mr. John 1. Resolved, That the establishment of a Court

extremely doubtful iftlrat boon will ever be conceded bv the British Government. ' Moved by Mr. James Pickering,—Seconded by Mr. Patrick ‘ Pendergrass. 2. ‘Resolved, That were an escheat iiiquisition~le~ \ ‘ gully established, this Meeting believes there is selﬁshness, corruption, and artiﬁce enough in Charlottetown to pervert that institution into an engine for conﬁrming proprietary claims,instead ofconﬁscating the forfeited lands to the Crown.

Moved by Mr. Moses Graham,——Seconded by Mr. John Graham. 3. Resolved, That as the Crown has long since ceased to grant lands any where, either in large or small

‘antities, it is extremely probable that were all the ‘Town-

‘ ships in this Island escheated to-niorrow, the Tenantry would still have to pay some price for the fee Simple of the lands they occupy.

Moved by Mr. Alexander McIntosb,—Seconded ’by Mr. William McKay. 4. Resolved, That ifthe plan recently pro- mulgated by Mr. Buller in the House of Commons, were carried into execution, it would probably place settlers im- mediater on the same footing as they would be after an es- cheat, and decidedly better than they would be it the Court of escheat refused to revest the Lands in the Crown.

Moved by Mr. Adam McKay,——-Secondcd by Mr. Alexr. McIntosh. 5. Resolved, That this Meeting deems it no more than right, that the inhabitants of this Colony} should pay for a freehold title, a price at least equal to what obtains in the adjacent Provinces. ,

Movud by Mr. Daniel‘Johnston,—Seconded by Mr. John Donne-11y. 6. Resolved, That where exceptions to the preced- ing resolution should be taken, that‘they he in favour of ten- ants who may have already advanced large sums, under the name of rent, for wilderness Land.

Moved by Mr. John McLeod,—Seconded by Mr. John McKenzie. 7. Resolved, Th‘at this Meeting believes were seven shillings per Acre the price of converting the Leas- Iioldinto freehold texturo, such a stimulus would be given to industry, that the whole would be paid up inten years.

Moved by Mr. George MeKenzic,——Seconded by Mr. Hen-

..ry Robertson. 8., Resolved, That a petition to the House of Assembly be immediately signed, praying that body to in- vestigate and determine the best and speediest method ofap-

' _At a late Public Meeting of the Diocesan Society, held in this town, His Excellency the Lieut. Governor in the chair, supported by our venerable Prelate, among other matters of conniderable interest mooted on that occasion, was the all— absorbing’one of the enlargement ofour Church, the neces- sity of which was so evident, that a subscription was imme- diately entered into for the furtherance of the same. l‘call to mind one individual, in particular, who appeared much affected wlnle advertng to the want of accommodation for the poor, and mosljustly charged our community with great lukewarmness in not supplying funds for this purpose. The BlShop Warmly seconded the appeal,antl related one or twu anecdotes in the sister Province, evinciug their superior love and zeal for the Church, which I then thought would have acted as a spur towards rousing us from our lethargy. Six months havo now elapsed since this momentous appeal Was made, but I cannot say I have witnessed any practical ef- fects as yet resulting from it, notwithstanding the verv'feel- ing and affecting statements made to the Meeting by several ofthe spakers. Ifl mistake not, the nominal Subscription amounted to nearly £120, but whether the Treasurer has actually realised the sum or not, is yet to be discovered.

These Public Meetings are for the most part composed of the Aristocracy of the place, seeminglymuch interested in the welfare of our church ; but in vain have I looked round the gallery to see the heads of some of our poorer brethren Witnessing our laudable exertions for their beneﬁt. Is the Church of England here becomeso fashionably exclusive as to shut hendoors upon her needy communicants? Let any stranger enter‘ the Church upon a Sabbath afternoon, and trike notice of the empty and half occupied pews on either Side ofthe aisles, and he could but conclude such to be the case. And why is this? Not because the Gospel is not faithfully preached; not because our worthy Rector shuns to declare the whole truth ;but because the pews are private property. Is it not disgraceful that such glaring inconsisten- cies should be allowed to exist? Oh! that all would unite in the common cause ofChristianity, and expose this ﬂagrant evil till the very stones cry out against our monopolists, and witness against them what is due to their poorer brethren.

Charlottetown is becoming an extensive Parish. Other denominations of Christians are wondering at and commiss- rating our supineness. Awake, then, fellow-sinners, from your slumbers, and be alive to your spiritual exigencies, “ for in such an hour as ye think not the son ofman cometh.”

2d February, 1844.

SEAL Fianna—We learn .at already preparations are making at St.John’s, Newfoundland, for the Seal Fishery, and the success of former years has given a fresh impetus to the business. What are our Novascotians about? They must be convinced by this time that the Seal Fishery is u principal part of the trade of St. John’s, and why do we not collectively, if not individually, embark some capital in it, for the sake ofgiving employment to a number ofthose who are to be seen congregated about the corners ofthe city, to ob- tain work, as it is an undeniable fact that from labour all capital is acquired. Novascotians are proverbial'ly slow to enterprise, (although in many instances prudently so) and needs be pushed on. The Seal Fishery, although in a limi- ted way, seems to have paid those who embark in it from Cape ‘Breton, for we understand that over thirty soil will go to the ice this year from that quarter, anticipating that the Gulf of St. Lawrence holds out as good inducement for sealing as the North of Newfoundland. Why then will our merchants be discouraged by the precedents of partial failures ?-—Halijax Regarder.

plying Mr. Buller‘s plan to the wants of this Colony.

Moved liy Mr. Benjn. McEwen,——Seconded by Mr. 'Thos. ’ Pickering. 9. Resolved, That this Meeting perceives with

deep regret, that Mr. Hope, the under secretary of state for the Colonies, replied to Mr.’ Buller, that the discontent ofthe iigriculturists of this Colony proceeds from a misunderstand- ing ofthe duties of tenants to their Landlords.

Moved by M. Thos. Piekering,-—Secundod by Mr. McEw- en. 10. Resolved,That for the especial ediﬁcation Oer.Hope this Meeting will explain the difference between the equita- in England, and on wilderness land in

North America. The former obtains land in a high state of

cultivation, which is equal to a Ina/n of capital, of i. hich the

' iriterést is represented with the rent. In P. E Island, set.- tlers have not only to accumulate alanded capital, interest on that capital, of their own forming, is forced from them un~ der the denomination of rent.

Moved by Mr. William Consins,—Seconded by Mr. John McKenzie. 11. Resolved, That Mr. Hope cannot produce a single instance in the colonial History of North America, where a similar tenure has operated favourablyj to the pow‘ er and prosperity of the community in which it existed, that this Colony is not,and will not be, an exception to the general rule, and thus Mr. Hepe, from whom better infor- mation was expected, has shown himself, by his remark, to be grossly igriorant of the ﬁrst duties ofa settler on Wilder. ness land.

Moved by Mr. Duncan McIntyre,.—Seconded by Mr. Hugh McKay. I2. Resolved, That a Committee of four be. appoint- ed to draw up a Petition to the Hon. the House of Assembly, embracing the foregoing Resolutions.

Moved by Mr. James Pickering,—Seconded by M r. John McKenzie. 13. Resolved, That it is the sense of this meeting that our Legislative Representatives, Messrs. McLean and Coles, do in their Legislative capacity, reject from the pub- lic accounts, any sum or sums of money therein set down, as disbursements made on account of an invasion of Town- ships Number Forty Four, by a civil and military force last winter; as also such amounts as may be plncxd to the public

‘debt for the uncalled-for prosecution of Duncan McLean,

Es . l . '

III/loved by Mr. T. Pickering,—Sei-onded by Mr. J. McLean Robinson. 14. Resolved, That the patriotic conduct evmced by Duncan McLean, Esq. our legislative Representative, whilst. labouring under the harrassing embarrassments inse- parably connected‘with the late rigorous Crown prosecution, which he recently defended, and which originated from a de- sire faithfully to discharge his duty to his constituents, calls forth our grateful acknowledgments, and stimulates us to place unlimited conﬁdence in his Parliamentary exertions, to obtain for'the oppressed of the Colony thatjustice they aw

' entitled t0.expect from the British Government. _

Moved by Mr. .I. Adams,—-Seconded by Mr. J. Clarke. 10.

Resolved, That this Meeting considers that the place of hold- ' ing the P011 should be rtamoved from John McEwen s, in Campbletown, to the Cross Road, at Mr. Donald Suther- land's,—and that a Committee be immediately appointed to draw up a Petition to the Legislature, praying for the same.

Committt’e of three appointed accordingly—John Adams, Daniel McIntyre,'Archibuld MeKinnon. ,

Moved by Mr. James Clarke,—Seconded by Mr. Hugh

16. Resolved, That the Resolutions and Petitions, together with the proceedings of tljs meeting,be immediately forwarded to Duncan McLean and George Coles, Esqrs. Members for the district, respectfully requesting them. to use their best endeavours to have the prayer ofthe petition Attended to, before the Hon. the House of Assembly.

To Tu]: EDITOR. or THE COLONIAL HERALD.

Sin; My attention has been directed to a series of Letters relative to the interests of the Established Church in this Town, which have appeared lately in your independent Jolir- ml, the nature of which I no further intend to refer to than 10 deplore that the rightful protectors qt the Church evince such indifference in vindicating her claims. You Will allow me, at present, to advert to circumstences, though not in ase— cular point of view, equally affecting the welfare ofour Zion, inasmuch as they relate to the spiritual imprOVeme'nt of the rising generation. I would premise any observation upon this subject, by assuring you, that I have but. one objeﬂ In view, in thus trespassing upon the public, which is to rouse ' us all, as Christians, to a warmer zeal for the glory Of God. To remain silent on the subject of that

in excluding the poor from participating in her through a system of proprietaryship, nién, a participation of the crime.
