Sin; After what lies been alread _ I y advanced by me, in reference to the currency, it is scarcely necessary to notice, in reply, 'I‘ai'i‘icstis’s last letter; but as this writer, after a profound slumber of some months, has again entered the field of controversy wttli dogged obstinacy, and'a repetition ofhis former flimsy arguments, and lest any one may be misled by him—Newspaper publications being soon for- gotten— have felt it my duty to remind your readers of what has been said on this interesting question. Super- ficial as. TRITICIUS may consider me, as a writer, I can assure him that I have been t'aught to reason a little beyond my nose; to examine theories well and carefully, s they bear upon facts, and draw my conclusions accordingl . The Currency question I have looked at in all its bearings, and am quite certain that a reduction in the nominal value of otir circulating medium, in the resent position of the Island, would be attended with isastrous consequences. The experiment has been repeatedly made, and the results, in every instance, have been equally injurious. I ' The case of Vickerson, which, it would appear, has sup- plied your financial correspondent with an exulting argu- ment, was certainly one ofgreut hardship; but, as such exactions are rare, and cannot possibly happen among men uninfluenced by the irritation ofexcited feelings, and who have a kindl disposition towards each other, nothing conclusive, in my opinion, can or ought to be deduced from such an occurrence. The abuse of any system ought never to be allowed to furnish arguments against its moderate and salutary use; for. iftlii's fififinittcd, no human or- rangeiiients would be found unexceptiouahle. Ifit is no- cessary to establish ateiitlcr by law, why not enact, that, at whatever rates moneys shall have been received and paid away by the Treasurer, at the time any pecuniary transac- tions may have taken place between parties afterwards be- coming litigant, all payments adjudged to be due by one to the other, shall be made iii moneys at the same precise rates—eunless it can be proved that coins atacertuin value were determined upon at the time the engagements were entered into. - r lam aware that obgections. may be made to such a mea- sure; but it would be better to introduce a statute to this effect, than to ruin the country by a reduction of its present currency. Let us, however, Sir, examine the case OfVick- crson a little more minutely. ' TRITICEUS informs us—uiid, apparently, with rapturous delight—that the Court very properly'dccreed that the judg- ment should be paid in Halt/211:, and not in Prince Edward Island, currency-that is to say, in dollars at five Shillings, and not at six, although the latter mode ofpayment had mu- tually been agreed upon by the parties in litigation before the action was brought. Veil, Sir, according to this de- cree, the defendant, Vickerson, might have paid the plaintiff in British shillings, .at one shilling and thrccpeiice, and which being considered the fi'nctional parts Ofthe dollar, uniyersally pass , in Nova Scotizi at this rate, and have be- come part of the currency of that Province. Allow me now to ask you, Sir, is one shilling and Hire nee, in a strict sense ofthc thing, the real value ofthe steifiiieigshilling, ac- cording to the established mode of calculating Halifax cur- rency? or is it a. nominal value, placed upon the coin-for' purposes of general utility ?'The latter unquestionably. The sterling shilling, by adding a ninth—the le al difference of exchange—should pass in Nova Scotia at t irleen pence far- thing and three ninths, which would be properly Halifax currency; but the good people of the Province have deemed it expedient, inaddition to this, to put a further nominal value of one ny half penny and six ninlha‘onthis coin, whether by aw or/ custoui, I care not, thus raising it to one and lhreepence, and'consideringzit the fourth part of the Spanish dollar. Allow me again to ask, are we to have the nominal value of coins in Nova Scotia crammed down our throats, as legal tenders in this country? or havec'we not us good a right to extend the worth ofour money as the Hali- gonians have of increasing the value oftheir own, whenever iLis conventionally thought advantageous to‘adopt such a measure? Independent ‘ofthe British shilling at fifteen pence, is the doubloon at four pounds, the sovereign and guinea at twenty five chilling _and the dollar at five shiiilings‘ and three pencei‘fiohifiwrcuimion in Nova Scot' ’ at these rates, the real currency value of these coin >And yet, forsooth, Tiu'ricnus glories iii the unfortunate defendant being compelled to pay in this boast— ed currency; aiid, what makes the thing more remarkable, in open defiance ofaii antecedent agreement between the contending parties. ' But—to return to the subject—I have asserted, and again repeat, that a. reduction ofour currency, in the present pos- ture of our trade, would produce the greatest distress, and that distress would pervade all classes of the community. The farmer—that valuable member ol'society—diom scarcity of money, would frequently be driVeii to the necessity of sacrificing the produce of his labour, or, in the event of not finding a cash market, to barter it away for articles he could well do without. He would be unable to pay his ser- vants, improve his property, and make the necessary pur- chases which the numerical extension of his family might possibly require. The merchant would have great difficulty in dispOSing of his commodities, paying his debts, and punctuully meeting his pecuniary liabilities; and thus a decide check would be given to all commercial purSuits. Persons who derive their incomes from other countries would be unable to Obtain cash fbr their bills, without sub- mitting to a ruinous discount, and, consequently, would be induced to quit' the Island in disgust. I well remember when English bills, from scarcity ofmoney, were at a dis- count of twenty-five per cent. in Charlottetown; and those times would revisit us with tenfold inconvenience, as there would be more hills in the market, and, of course, more sufferers to participate in the general embarrassment. Your Treasury would be empty, your roads and bridges remain unrepaired, and the general improvement of the country would be thus wretchedly retarded. It is unnecessary to dwell on the train of calamities that would inevitably follow upon the” reduction of our metallic currency, and its conse- quent abstraction from circulation. - lts pernicious ef- fects, in former times, have been experimentally felt, and the difficulties that then prevailed must be vividly recollect- ct! by every one. You have only to afford our commercial peo ile facilities in making their remittances in substantial gol and silver—always preferable to the bulky articles of agricultural produce—and in afew months the Island will be placed in astute of pecuniary _destittition. It is said, however, that although our money might disappear in some directions, it would be replaced through other chart- nels, and thus, like the ebbing and flowing of our rivers, a monetary equilibrium would be preserved. I am aware that cash returns annually, to a certain amount, are, made from NewaUndland and Miramichi, on sales of our agricm. tumi produce, and that a few pounds are thrown into the circulation occasionail by strangers who Visit the Island; but, on comparison, the ingress to the egress would be found to bear a‘ me man proportion, and thus fully to establish the poii'its have been endeaVOurmg to prove. A thought has this moment, Sir, flashed upon my mind; .and without hesitation, I will venture to embody it in this communication. 'I‘si-riczns, for aught I know, may possi- bly be seine cormorsnt Attbrney—and' such there are to be found, I am sor . to say, in a profession I highly respect —if‘ so, be naturarily would be anxious to lnthduce the currency reduction system, as he and his counterparts are the only folk that would be likely to fatten on the distress of the country.

E PSILON. To THE EDITOR. 0! THE COLONIAL HERALD. Sir; As the Mail Steamboat has ceased to ply for the season, and the winter couriers are likely preparing to llll- dcrgo their laborious anddierilous undertaking, I have no doubt that any suggestio‘t‘f‘which may lead to the accom— modntion either of the public or the ill requitcd contractors, in the conveyance of ~the Winter Mails, would not be unacceptable. : Lust \Viiitei', Iobserved that the Mail seldom arrived in Town until late .at, night—often at midnight—and conse- quently letters could not be dolivcrcd until the following morning. It reaches Cape Traverse generally about Four' o’clOck, p. in.; but with merely one horse to perform the jour- ney, it is almost impossible for it to be brought to Charlotte- town ut an earlier hour. I should therefore think, that were there to be found, either-in the Legislature or among private individuals, sufl‘icieiit spirit qfenlerprise and enough capital to enable the courier to ,provide himself, as all other couriers are, with a change ofhorses, at about half the journey be- tweeu here and Cape Traverse, the inconvenience I alludc’to would be effectually remedied, and consequently letters, 83c. might be delivered ten or twelve hours earlier, which, before the return of an English Mail, might prove of the utmost consequence. The paltry sum of Ten Pounds, I am con- fident, would suffice for the purpose. I am, yours &c. f>osr HAS'I‘E. Charlottetown, 3d Dec. 1841. TO THE Eni'ron or THE COLONIAL HERALD. Sir; Allow me to call the attention of the proper quarter to the following iiicts. You are aware that the Legislature, in its last Session, passed an Act, intituled ‘Aii Act for the ‘appoiiitmciit Of' Fish Inspectors, and to continue and ex~ ‘ tend the provisions of the Act now in force, regulating,r the ‘ size and quality of Fish Barrels and Tierces, and the ‘ weight Of Fish made up therein,’—a measure loudly called for, in order, for the promotion of the health of the coni- munity, to prevent, among other things, the sale and con- suniption of tainted Fish. In this Act the Lieutenant GO- veriior, or other Administrator Of the Governii'ient, is eii‘i- powered to appoint Fish hspectors in “the different Towns, Ports, Harbours and Settlements in this Island.” Now, Sir, whether it is through a total disrespect to the law of the Island, or a wilful disregard t the health and security ofits inhabitants, I am not prepare to say ; but there is not, to my certain knowledge, one Fish Inspector appointed at the harbours of Saint Peter’s, Souris or Rollo Bay, in King’s County, where, to our disgrace, there have been cargoes from Newfoundland and Magdalen Islands, of tainted and putrid Fish, exposed for sale every day this Fall. Allow me also to add, for the credit ofa certain department, that there are no persons appointed to put down Buoys in the Harbours of Souris and Rollo Bay, although the means for that Object have been provided for in the appropriation of last Session, which is a serious. inconvgiieuce to tite'pchipping interest iii that quarter and elsewher . ‘ Yours, 8w.
