On Thursday night another Colonial and United States Mail reached Town. Some news from the papers furnished will be found in our present No. HINTS FOR TUE LEGISLATION OF NENT SESSION. No. 1. Usoer this heading we purpose giving a few short articles in reference to such subjects as will be most likely to come under the notice of the House of Assembly during the ensuing Session. Tar Licexce Law.—A revision and amendment of the Laws relating to the sale of spirituous liquors is certainly a matter whieh ought to engage the attention of the Legislature. For the last three or four years the House ef Assembly has given it a great deal of consideration, but with very little beneficial results. The object ef all past effurts has been, it appeared to us, to supprese or confine within the smallest possible limits, } ee ee = a : the sale of spirituous liquors; bat the very means resorted to| fer the accomplishment of that object, produced an effect the very reverse of what was desired by the advocates of tem- perance, Who every session manifest a great eagerness to tinker a a ; a ; with the lieence lawa, in the hope of imposing some new re- straint upon the traffic. Vesting in the Grand Jury the power of granting licences has given rise to a fearful amount of illicit trade, entailing considerable loss tothe revenue, and great injury to the public morals: Before a tavern-keeper can hiope to get a licence under the present law, he is put to*much incunvenience, trouble and expense, and when he goce to the Grand Jury fur a certificate, (which is indispensable te his getting a licence), he is most probably refused—for not one to every ten ef the applicants is favourably regarded by the Grand Inquest. direction. are springing up in every People accustomed to take their ease in their ims, do not like to see what were once | respectable taverns closed against them—they cannot and do not respect the law which operates to their injury or at least to thei discomfort, and they consequently tolerate, more out of spite to the law and its administrators than anything else, the numerous groggeries which the difficulty of obtaining « licence has forced into existence.

We have ‘to defer, for want of sufficient space, a notice of the article whith appeared in the last Islander addressed “to the | publie,”’ and signed «‘D, Maclean.’’ When we first saw it, | we intended te treat the silly production with contempt, but | finding, on second consideration, that it may be made to afford our reguders some amusement, we will condescend to notice it at some length in our next issue. ee | LONIAL NEWS. THE PROHIBITORY LIQUOR LAW IN NEW BRUNS- W1CK.—MEETING AT FREDERICTON. | A public meeting has been held at Fredericton, by requisi- _tion to the Mayor, for the purpose of giving expression to pub- ‘lic opinion, in reference to the Prohibitory Liquor Law. The / St. John Morning Courier states that from one thousand to | fifteen hundred persons were present—most orderly and well- _conducted,—the Mayor in thechair. The following resolution passed hy a majority of five to one, (some say much larger.) All ended harmoniously and in good feeling, with three cheers | for the Queen. | Resotvrion—‘* While this mecting readily admits the neces- | Sity of legislation to prevent the abuse and to regulate the sale | of alcoholic liquors, it most unqualitiedly deprecates coercive enactments against the use thereof, as arbitrary and unwise, and altogether inconsistent with the inherent and natural rights of the people of every civilized community: Therefore resolved, that in the opinion of this meeting, the Act of the , last Session, commonly called “‘ The Prohibitory Law,”’ is in- congenial to the spirit and feelimgs, aud insulting to the character of the people of this Province, and fraught with serious evils to the social and political well-being of society.” | AmznpMENT—‘* That this meeting is not prepared to censure or condemn an Act which has passed the Legislature of this Province, received the sanction of the Lieutenant Governgr and the assent of Iler Majesty the Queen, until that law hes at least a fair trial.’’ Lost by some majority. ne > ie ————— LOSS OF THE STEAMER PILOT. he Dighy correspondent of the Western News has fur- nished the following particulars of the loss of the Pilot steamer, which left Digby for St. John, N. B., on Tuesday, ' the Sthradystant. | "i Diesy, 14th January, 1856. , On the evening of Tuesday, the 8th instant, the steamer | Prlot left here for St. John, with every reasonable prospect of a fine ran. She had on board a large number of passengers, horned cattle, horses and sheep.” Ske proceeded on until she jhad gone about 5 or 6 miles from Dighy, when she was suddenly met by a tremendous storm of wind accompanied _with snow. At first Captain Donahoe thought it best to keep ; }on, and, if possible, wake the other shore ;" but aTter consulting with his mate, and the first engineer, it was thought most ad- visible to put back to this port fora harbour. The ship was ‘immediately put about, and her head brought up for the gut ; every eye was on the look-out for the light, but a to the | thickness of the weather not a glimpse of it could be had, until, without a moment’s warning of the danger, she struck ‘the shore. The Captain immediately ordered the engines to be reversed, when she at once backed off; but upon being ap- | prised that there was water in the hold, he commanded her to |be put ahead again on the shore, where she hung, the sea breaking over her tremendously. It was fortunate enough the | Captain gave this last order, for had he not done so, she must | have sunk in five minvtes, in deep water, and all on board | would have been Jost. No sooner had she struck than the stem and stern came out, 'which caused her to fill with water in a few minutes. The | passengers were at once got into the boats and sent up to town, at virtue there was in the Small Debt waster Says that nine Islanders are received ¢, two Haszard’s Gazettes, and two Examiners. , Whe has been in busi- | wry; and we dare Ry “gent settlement alluded te, both Haszard’s tte and the Examiner could get as many subscribers as the adopted the principle of the latter, yiz: six months free, and the other six months’ subseription to be paid The New York Herald of the 15th inst. contains the | When convenient, a clique in Charlottetown makine goed the 5 implicitly confided.— Advertise: . ~ ee Lied. native of Argyleshire, Scotland, and emigrated to this Island in 1806. aged 62 years.

Notwithstanding all the checks imposed on the liquor traffic, that trafic has been largely increasing every year. limporta- tions of liquor are now made ona far more extensive scale than they were a year or two ago, notwithstanding the in- erease of price, owing to the war; whilst the number of licensed taverns has been very considerably reduced. It is very evident, then, that the law-breaker finds plenty of em- ploy ment—thas there must be shebeen shops in abundance, and of course an amount of evil aad intemperance fearful to con- template. The Grand Jury for Queen’s County were well aware of all this themselves when they made their last Present- ment te the Supreme Court. from it :— We give the following extract ** The Jurors regret to observe that they discover, from evi- denee taken befure the panel, that the traffic in ardent spirits is greatly on the increase, and that even boys of very tender age, i companies together, are freely furnished with liquor by persons retailing thus openly in vivlation of the law. The Jurors are of the decided opinion that the City Police should ve charged with special power to check and endeavour to sup- press places of this deseription.”’ Now we are firmly of opinion that the evils complained of, and apparent to every one, can never be remedied by stringent jaws. even though half a dozen policemen may assist in en- forcing them. The more stringent they are, indeed, the more difieulty there will be ia having them strictly obeyed. The present law must be repealed befure a better state of things can be hoped for. et the Legislature revive the old License law | was secured and restored to the owners, so that no person lost ‘anything.

The Engine Companies were on the spot immediately after the alarm was given, and worked with their accustomed energy. A large quantity of the type ae te the office was either destroyed or rendered unserviceable. |A quantity of the printing paper was also damaged. There is some mystery connected with the origin of the fire, but that it was another case of incendiarism there is ample proof, as it was afterwards discovered that in two or three places the in- terior of the bailding must have been set on fire.
