Nor has it published the draft agreement, which is said to be “such a good thing for the Province.”’ The people are therefore left to draw their own conclus‘oas. One ef these is that the Attorney Geu- eral and the Hon. Benjamin Rogers have eome personal interest to serve in their desire to have the bridge placed out of the way of ordinary traffic. The Attorney Genera! is silent upon the pot; but Mr, Rogers has written the following letter tq e Patriot: Sir,—lt th ‘as 2 reported that ] am actuated by other motives thau those ia the best interests of the cily, in the position I | have taken with respect to the site of the Hillsborough Bridge: I repudiate all such reports, and beg to state that I am neither | ciectly nor indi rectly interested in any | Pro perty at Kensington Point or in the | vicio! ty thereof.

Upon re~ flection we are convinced that Premier is—whatever his motives interests of the jeopardizing the build- ing of the bridge when he asks for delay and consideration before. consummating the secret agreement, It is pleasing to note that the Govern- ment have, in their estimates, provided for the construction of the work within the next fiscal year; aud, we sincerely hope that the best site for the bridge may be fixed upon independently of every consid- eration except that of the public iaterest. By the way, perhaps the Attorney- General will say what became of the peti. Farquharson may be—acting in the public, and is not tion in favor of the Cumberland Street site?
