Sin; 1 am one who, since the establishment of your pa- per, liave paid some degree of attention to those movements and proceedings among public men, and certain other indi- ‘viduals in this Island, which, during the last six years in particular, have been rather prominent in its course of events, and are known under the familiar term “ Eschea ” and to which your columns have at all times been prétty libergjly devoted. Of the workings of this subject, its advocates and .ngittitors, I have been perhaps a more than common obserg- ver; and to all these movements and proceedings 1 havmfelt alike opposed, and that feeling do I entertain in no less de- gree up to the present time. And yet, Sir, strongly as I en; tertain this feeling, lhave now, in the face of the public, and through the medium of your paper, the organ of “Escheat” advocates, to acknowledge the. ’ otwithstandiiig the suppres- sion which so efficaciously mar ed those proceedi during the administration of the governmeng by the late judicious and energetic Sir John Harvey—notwuhstanding the ex- hausted condition to which the state of“ Escheat” has been reduced by its own natural infirmities, as well as from tli firm and salutary administration of the law .in the superior legal Courts of the Island—it has lately derived one of the most powerful stimulants that has ever yet beeniobtained, one of the greatest triumphs that has ever, at any time, been achieved for it, by any one or more of its warmest and sin- of my communication will admit, from entering upon any reasoning in answei; to what may have been alleged as the merits intrinsically of the subject, I should hope that upon tl’gaccount, my statements will not be received w ll, ess I would ask, in what View as the overnmont, not only of this Island, but that of Great Britain, looked upon the Eschcat party? Tie replybto this qpestion cannot, it is true,,be found in one sentence—or as given a; one particula cried—or collected from what has tisue from one andrihe saui'e (argon of goltiernment; but, I as any ' ' erent erson of or inary inte 1gencg, _ iiiglsftfcommlbn acduaintance with the subject, 1f tho; party has not been looked upon, distinguished and treate as one credit. Hitherto, Sir, bargained to discharge, and of that nature and having the‘ lar numbber ,‘ficttinjfng directly at their own commonfne y is ' 0' themer ' ' - irons which they iMivtmzzd not Nieves mm cemmioutga in the ordinary transadions eflifc, voluntaril and deliberately 7 'nding by the ao- rides of cyan] civil society, thereby may reap ’L ed and all-essmtial p l person of the par rulividuall and flux generally, 'lhafwhic to some ma, ,provc lea-jihad taught”: more, ought? their number, a certain amount of gain. in slip‘rt, 1‘, ,fhave not the’ proceedings of government denounged them as _ not only an unreasonable, but a disaf— fected set of men, disseminating unlawth’l and mischievous propositions; disavowing constitutional principles of govern- ment, re51sting the constituted authorities, and requiring the arm of the law to restrain them from extremities, producing consequences, not only disturbing the peace of‘ society but dangerous to the property and lives of individuals. , The gentleman to whom I have alluded, having been sent to the Assembly by the majority of a constituency, compo- sed ofa class of persons thus estimated by the government T—havmg there ,been openly riiceived by other representa- tives, chosen by and representing the same class of people and 'then solemnly dedicated to their cause—and having publi‘cly subscribed to their principles—I again ask, have noel}: the Escheat party a momentous cause of triumph, in seeing this gentleman, after serving one month only in the Assem— bly, called to a seat in the Legislative Council ? Againgl confess, I fear too many of your readers will agree with me that they have. , I I have no desire, in any manner, publicly to question the :l‘notl‘VCS ,o‘f Ills Excellency the Lieutenant Governor, in tucking this;ap,po1ntinent, if‘ I were fully justified in doing so ; notbeca‘use surprise alone is all that can attach to them, while they continue, as at present they certainly do, without authentic. explanation; but chiefly because they depend, un- der the “ peculiar situation” of certain persons, Upon whe- theror notOI-lis Excellency acted with or without advice, :tindaf With it, by whom it was gleam—The motives, of course, 1!] either case, were the ends which were looked to;—but I claim to myself; Mr. Editor, the privilege which few will venture newts-days to deny to an individual, however humble, living Within a British government—that of publiclv ex ressing an opinion on any measure of the overnmcnflis far he operation and eficts maer ' affect; the interests of the public; and so long as that opinion IS given 111 constitutional and respectful language. I ask then, Sir, if the Government of this Colony has not now formally recognized the Escheat party as a component and essential part of the political community? If this party is not now hailed, for the first time, as a constitutional body of men ? If they are not now, to all intents and purposes, politically legitimated? 1f the Government has not now, at this stage of its progress, admitted that the cause of this party, as main- tainedlby its adherents, is of that nature, and possessing th :merits, which calls for—which is deserving, as acause, OfCI‘EIIIJ‘aDd perfect representation in all the Councils of the Colony. What the Home Government will do remains yet to be decided. Whether I be right or wrong, in the view 1 have taken of this appointment of His Excellency Sir C. A. Fitz Roy, and what, either in the one case or the other, may be its opera- tion and effects upon the state of Prince Edward Island, I leave for the opinions of you and the public. .

Sin; That the individual who assumes to be the Proprie- tor of Lennox Island has justly laid himself open to the cut- ting rebuke of Carrie VERAX, in the Herald of the 12th inst., there can be but little doubt; bttt so far as the Indians are concerned, I do not see what occasion there is for the Government to negociate at all with that person respecting its purchase. The Indians are in legal posseem’on—they have held it for upwards of forty years—and if the Govern- ment‘be now disposed to do them an act of tardy justice, they may.,accomplisli it without the“ ' ‘ ofa single shilling, b granting them the Fishery Reserve of the coast of that Islan , during their existence as a tribe—thus confirm- ing them in their possession of by far the greater portion of the territory in question, since from'lits peculiar formation, the Reserve would include n , ly the whole of its area. Something should immediatelyefi done for these poor crea- tttres; but I sincerely hope, that no sum of money—however small—will be drawn from thépockets of an over-taxed people, for the ridiculous purpose ‘bf purchasing a claim whiplh, at best, is so very questionable, if in reality it exists at a . .
