The News Room hete received a telegram from Sackville on Friday last, announcing the arrival of the Mail Steamer Ara- hia at Halifax on the morning of that day. She encountered stormy weather during the whole passage. The steamer Propeller of the Gafway line ran ashore in Galway harbour— the tide flowed into her, and fears were entertained that she would become a wreck.—Rumours of impending war prevail ubon ths continent, which were somewhat strengthened by a speech from the King of Sardinia at the opening of the Legis- lative Chambers at Turin, which breathed a warlike spirit. The funds in the princithl continental cities became depressed in consequence of this feeling.—The British Parliament is prorogued until the 3rd of February.—Chief Justice Macaulay of Canada has received the honour of Knighthood.—Proceed- ings are said“to be nearly completed for the prosecution of the members of the Phoonix Club, lately arrested in Ireland for alleged treasonable practices.—The Markets are said to be’ about the eame as at former advices.. The Mail for this Island is expected to-arrive here on Wed- nesday next. 4«<hoa-S CHANGE OF GOVERNORS: Tus Obstructives continue to glorify themselves amazingly about the report for several days in circulation respecting the appointment of @ successor to Sir Dominick Daty. We can- not say whether there is any foundation for this report ; but we believe that our present Governor has for several months expected an appointment to a far better Government than the one which he now holds, end we have no-doubt that his wishes in this respect will be complied with in due course of time. If the change be, therefore, an advantageous one for his Ex- cellency, his friends, though they may regret the removal for their own sakes, will heartily rejoice at it for his. It is no new practice with our opponents to rejoice when a new Governor is about to be appointed in the place of an old one. This, within our own recollection, was the case when Sir Henry Vere Huntley left our shores. They expected great things from Sir Donald Campbell, but although the poor old gentleman tried to please them in some things, he found that he could not govern public opinion to meet their yiews and his own ; and in the straggle he sacrificed health and life. When Sir Alexander Bannerman came to the Colony, the same party professed to be mightily pleased with the prospect before them. But Sir Alexander governed the Colony with so much firmness and independence, that they were better pleased at his depar- ture than at his arrival. Ths same state of feeling prevailed at the arrival of Sir Dominick, and the best testimony that could be offered to the efficiency and integrity of his administra- tion, is, that the Obstructives hate him not less cordially than they did any of his predecessors. In short, so (ioyernor will ever please the Obstructives unless he lends himself body and . te ’. on eS a se ERS REVIEW OF SIR D. DALY'S GOVERNMENT. ne ee Ste Sir D. Daly’s administration of our Government, in the course of which the editor has discevered only three causes of com- plaint against His Excellency : viz: .Jst—That he gave his ‘sanction to!a Bill altering the mode of sumuféning Juries. 2nd—That he sanctioned another Bill relating to the office of Sheriff. And 3rd—That he sanctioned the proceedings that were taken to organize a small military force, wh¢h ‘the re- gular troops were withdrawn from the Colony through the misrepresenta tions of the late Sir Donald Canspbell, and which fore6 was to be paid out of the proceeds of the Rent Roll Bill. With regard to the first charge, the Jury Bill was passed fore Sir Dominick came to the Colony * but if it had heen introduced in his time, it would not only havé’been ‘tis duty, but we believe his pleasure, to assent to it, It is an excellent Bill, and prevents tampering with the Jury liets, which the old law did not. The principle of the Sheriff’s Bill —the sub- ject of the second charge—was recognized by the House of Assembly in 1851, when a similar Bill was-passed, three years before Sir Dominick came to the Island: But this measure was loudly called for, and the object of it was to prevent the Supreme Court from choosing for the office of Sheriff the same political partizams every year. The law is now the same ae in the other provinces ; and instead of evil, benefit has rdsulted’ from its operation. The J udges of the Supreme Court ought them in connection with this subject. They are told that the that Court, and that the whole judicial power of the land isa base instrument in the hands of the Government. This false- hood is tod apparent for refutatior. : With respect to the third charge, His Excellency the Governor acted in accordance with instructions from. the Colonial Office, the authorities in which are now lauded with so much obsequicusness by the Islander people ; and in this case, a8 well as in the other two, His Excellency acted by and with the advice of his Council—who, if there was any blame to be attached to the measures, should alone he held respon sible for them. , The Jslander's attack upon Sir Dominick is a wretchedly lame and impotent affair, to which we have given but a passing glance for the present. If no stronger charges can be brought against him, the defence of Ilis Excellency, when the time comes for it, will be an easy task ; but it will be gratify- ing to him and to his friends te r+jlect that, after nearly five years rule his worst enemies could prefer no accusations against him further than that bo had given his assent to two particular Acts of Parliament, which were ealled for by the circumstances of the country—which were amongst the best acts of his Administration, and for passing which the Exe- cutive Counci¥are entitled toa fall share of censure or applause. *-—-o + PUBLIC MEETING IN KING’S COUNTY.
