Now, to come nearer home, let us suppose that the Col- lectors of Impact and Excise, together with the Trea- surer, no longer willing to run the risk of acting contrary to'Law, refuse to take coin for duties at other than its legal value—in what situation will even these intelligent merchants standl They will find that they have assu- med to themselves a power which neither the Governor and Council, nor the Legislature itself, possess, for if even the latter were to pass a Bill legalizing the cur- rency, as it at present stands, the Governor could not assent to it without a suspending clause; and a law to that effect would but hate to be read to have the Royal assent refused. Governor SMITH did, it is true, order the Five Shilling Bank Token to be received at Six Shillings; but it was an arbitrary, high handed act, which the Treasurer might and ought to have refused to comply with. He should have told the Governor, that the law of the land was his guide, and that he neither knew of nor would acknowledge any dispensing power, even in ‘the Sovereign himself; and had he so answered, Governor Sstrrrr, arbitrary as he at times confessedly was, had too much sound sense, and too good a knowledge ofthe Constitution, to find fault-with a firmness and decision, the most useful qualifications that a man in office can possess, and in neither of which was he himself wanting. ErsrLorv ives himself credit for coming to the scratch, as calls it. I beg leave to differ with him. Instead of argument, he substitutes a petitio principt'r', . He tells us that the object of raising the British coin to its present de- nomination is for, the purpose of keeping it in the Island. Whether it will have this effect or not is the question with which he ought to have grappled. I have said, and I still say, that it will not; and I ground that opinion apart the acknowledged fact, that though the Bank oken. and Spanish Dollar were raised to Six Shillings, we have scarcely one ofeither denomination in circu- lation; they with the Three-and-fourpenny, eighteen- penny, and smooth Shillings, have gone to Nova Sculia; uccessors, the British half. pences.
