Sis; on, or run Psorbfi.see,”has at last ventured to > Ink. some inquiry about the sfiitl of the Conn-s1 Aosdemy, and to express something oftbe surprise which everywhere prevails at the apathy with which that Institution has been |and continues to be treated. Noise enouch has been made about it iii the Legislature, for years past, Ibut few I belieVe, of“the people” have over troubled thsttiselves to, ascertain its real condition. Rumours have been spread to the preju- dice of the constitution of the Academy, butl have never heard any real foundation stated for them. Reproach and obloquy have, in an indirect manner, been cast upon the Masters; .but when investigation was made before the Le- gislature, it was provetl to the satisfaction of'sll parties, that the Masters had been unwarrantably abused, and testimonials of the highest character have been given to them oftlie suc- cess With which they have contended with the disadvantages under W-I'HCII even the Trustees in both ends of the Legis- lative Building acknowledged they had laboured. Changes, however, have been called for, and, to a certain extent, se— cured. At length, a board of Trustees has been appointed to dojustice to one and all ofthe parties concerned. Your correspondent seems very anxious to ascertain who are to be the Masters, and it is, perhaps, natural enough to ptit the question ; but he must leave that to the board, whose pre‘rogntjve it is to make the appointments; and he must wait their time too, anti be content with their mode of pro- cedure. He asks if the present Teachers are to have no no- tice about quitting, or whether they are to he continued. What notice they may have had, it may be difficult for him to know, btit it is not very likely that old and tried servants will be dismissed, to make way for new ones, without some good and valid reason. The present Masters obtained their situ- ations under a permanent Act—gave tip other situations on the faith of its continounce—struggled with all the difficul- ties with which an avowedly defective system was beset—a endured desertioti and neglect, where patronage and support triigbt naturally have been expected—quid it is not at all likely that, because under these circumstances they have not done all that those who did not know how they were situated might have expected from them, they will either have notice about quitting, or be continued in the lower departments, and a Head Master obtained. Iftliere is force in the sugges- tion, that preferences should be given to other Teachers in the Town, much more forcibly does the suggestion apply to the Masters in the Academy, who, so far as evidence goes, have done the very best that could be done in their circum- stances, and whom, probably, no Board of Trustees would be disposed arbitrarily and summarily to dismiss. It was scholars would be kept tip iii the midst ofso much outcry as has been made oflate about the School, and so much uncer- tainty about its continuance; btit I believe those who have kept their children at it are at least as well satisfied as those who have taken thetii away, or those who have supported other Schools. The working oftlio new system must test the merits of the alteration. The subdivision of the etiiolu- fees, are not likely to secure higher attainments, though they may extend the advantage ofthe Institution to a greater number—but much will depend upon the system oftraitiing that is pursued. A PATRON. June 20th, 1843. DISORDERLY Dunno—We have of late beard frequent complaints of the very disorderly manner in which some persons are to be seen occasionally driving,’ through otir streets. A few (lays since, an individual from the cotititry was taken before a Magistrate, charged with driving furious- ly through the streets, in contravention ol'tbc law in that case made and provided,and the charge was clearly and dis- tinctly proved. The plan brought forward, however, in pal- liation ofthe offence, being ofa somewhat novel nature iii a nil whom it may concern—it was to the effect, that it had become notorious that a certain privileged class ofiridividuuls were almost daily in the habit of committing much greater breaches of the law iti this respect than that ofwbicli he had been guilty, antl~ that, consequently, it would be ex- tremely unjust to punish a poor ignorant countryman for sim— ply doing that, ouce now and then, which, it appeared to him, was not merely tolerated bttt approved of'iii others more fortunately circunistaticod in life than himself—by persons, in fact, who style themselves gentlemen. A plea so forcible, ntitl witliul so fttll of sound logic, could not but produce the tlesired effect ttpon the mind ot'the good natur- ed Magistrate, and our friend [lodge came off with flying c‘ours. \IVo merely mention the above circuiiistatice, for the correctness of which We can vouch, simply as it occur- red, and refrain fi'om making: any comments on itnt present, in the hope that the bare mention oftlie subject will accom- plish the end we have in view, viz., the putting a stop toa practice at once tliscrcditnhleto those who indulge in it, and endangering the lives of Her Majesty’s liege subjects. fiassengers’. .

ENTLEM EN; The subject tipo‘n which we have G to address you is one that so closely concerns the common interests of us all, that we do not hesitate to approach you with all thn familiarity ofa friend—all tlie‘boldnes's and manlincss of spirit inseparable from an integrity of purpose and firm attach- ment to the truth. We have to address you on the propriety of establishing in this Colony a Fussand INDEPENDENT Pines; and in doing so, we shall avoid the indulgence oftliat flippaul flattery and servile dissimultition so common to a Prospectus, which is as useless as it is disgusting. To assert that you have no such Press, is to assert that which vou all know. It is notorious that the whole population oftbis Island—save a miserable, arrogant and purse-proud faction, draining the life-blood oflhe country, and insulting its emaciated form—have not lbe'power of proclaiming theirinjuries and de- gradation, and establishing the tyranny and infamy oftheir rulers. 'I‘hut tyranny has existed for years. and still exists in more “than its original deformity, and no journalist in the Colony has been found fearless and honest enough to expose and condemn it. When you have to appeal to the Press ofanntbor Country to assert your rights and chastise your oppresmra, there can be lit- tle doubt of the partiality, venality and corruption of your own, or, rather, that which calls itselfyours. There can belittle doubt, thattrutb and justice have been bartered for the smiles of place- mau and the patronage of power, and that . perfidy and apostacy by some are regarded with higher favour than constancy and integrity. To render such appeals unnecessary, we purpose to establish in this community s Semi-weekly Periodical, under the title of ’ at): fiallabtum. To this step we are encouraged by your friends-«the .Penple’s friends—whose solicitations and assurances ofsupport are too urgent and flattering to be disregarded or unacknowledged. The object ofthis paper will be, emphatically, the defence of your rights, and the promotion of our interests. “ This is not the “ cause of party, or of faction, ut the cause of every man in Brio “ lain." It will be its object toinvsstignte and ussnil, ifnot rem- dy, the evils which have grown out oftlio Laodocrscy System, a system whose principle is “monopoly,” whose effect is oppression; and wherever fraud or corruption may be found to exist, Tits: PsanDiun will show itsel it. most uncompro- mising .encmy. ’ - To the Government, in at present constituted, Tn]: Plums— DIIIM will present an opposing front, because it is unconstit- tional and un-Britisli—bocause it is the Government of n ,Oligarchy, and not that of: Fast: PEOPLE, subsisting rather on the oxerciso of Military power than on the affections of the Colonists-—nnd because it is a living lie on the system of Colonial Polity conceded by Her Majesty to her Provinces in America.
