He did not afires| that one course had been pursued by the Ex- ecutive and another by individual members ot at, but such might be inferred from the tenor of bis remarks. No. it has been an vpen question, and that has induced me to Speak freely against the proposed scheme of confederation And further, the other pro- vinces have been spoken of as receiving false topressiuns of the vrews of the people from the Government. I entered fully iato the fact that one of the foar members of che Go- vernment whoure in favor of Confederation, took his seatin the Executive with the ap- probation of his consiituency, by giving a pledge not to adopt any measure in favor ol Confederation till after a general election , and [ said it was for them first, and for the public alterwards te compare bis obligation with the driit of bis speeches. I would also state that I huve been udvised by amy ‘sup- porters and by those who have the wellare of the Colony in wew, not to give up my sent im the Executive while [ could consistently told it, and their Impression is that Lam one who will oppose that scheme to the utmost ot wy power, and failing to Lave it treated as it should be lor the proteetion of the Is. land, that | would be the first to resign my et and give a note of warning to the peo- ple.

The Hon. Mr. Beer proposed the followin, resdlution, which was agreed to :—

Resolved, That an humble Address based on the foregoing Resolutions be prepared and forwarded to Her Majesty the Queen, praying that Her Majesty way be graciously pleased to withhold her sanction from any measure calculated to deprive Prince Ed- wa d [sland of the Constitution whichit now happily enjoys, and more especially from any measure in- tended to effeet a Union of Prince Elward Island with Canada and toe ether P.oviuces of British North America,

The House was then resumed, and the chairman reported # number of resulucions agreed to, ;

The Hon. Mr. Beer then proposed the fol- lowing Address to Her Majesty the Queen, founded on the resvlutions of the House on the subject of euntederation, which was un- | atimously agreed to:— to THE QUEEN'S MOST. EXCELLENT MAJBotY.
