Conuideriible difficulty is experienced from the pnucily of silver coin. and to meet the exigencies of the case, it was suggested that one of the banking companies should issue five and Icn shilling notes, which would be readily adopted by the community; and it was believed, that Ilia destruction of notes which inviiri.-ibl results from a small note circulation would justify the expense an Iroublu incurred by issuing notes of smull'value.

The British Government are willing to give u ‘s right to a literal and strict construction of the words of the Treaty, and will be satisfied if the Americans abstain from Fishing within three mnriiie miles of the shore.

Mr. John Williams having been requested to tnlze-the Chsir,kind- ly consented to reside at the meeting, aiid a Secretary hevin been chosen, the business of ihe evening was opened b Mr. uurid, who spoke at some length upon the suliject. He ndverted to the favourable accounts which are bein received from Ihiit quarter, and confronted the condition of the Mec union in this Island with llllll of the same class of persons in Australia. From authentic and reliable sources, it a peered that the wages of the artisan were doubly higher than in this slsnd, even before the discovery of gold in that coun- try, while the certainly of prompt payment when his work was performed, rendered him conipsriiiivel an inde iideni man! The climate also, was one o I beat on I e face the earth. II had been reported, that some seasons there was s sosrcit of water; but whlohlie lied never once sdverted to the want of water, a fact which convinced him Ihst such was not the case.

When the culntion of purchasing the Funny to proceed to California west: talked about in this ’lowii, he remembered that many spoke on an impracticable undertaking. Several attempts had been Iede. before so respectable a meeting as the prfient could be got a. He believed, upon the whole, that those who went in Funny had done well. It was true ihnt sickness had been the lot of some, and a few had died; but men were liable to dbeuee h any cciiuiry, and without going out of Charlottetown, we might meet with many instances both of disease and death. The ennui. tion of ihe Mechanic in this Town, was far from being what it ought. And that of Ihe_Eiriployer was very little better. Under present circumstances, it was impossible for the Emplc or to pay the Mechanic his bill in money for the best of reasons, because he could not reiiliae money liimsel The credit system was u very bad one, rind he believed, lhal many merchants annually lost their bad debts and people leaving the Colony, what would otherwise enable them to pay the mechanic without delay.
