Now, then, let us ask, if all those gentlemen—ihe four in the Assem- bly and the two in the Council—approve of the doctrine advocated by Maclean, as their organ and mouthpiece, why do they not resign either their seats in the Le- gisiature, or their places under Govern- ment? Why does not the Islander call wpon them to resign, if that paper sets any real value on the doctrine which it advocates? Whep Duncan will answer these ques ions, le can harangue with a better graee thai he now does on the impropriety of allowing members of the Legislature to be Government officers. Meanwhile we claim credit for furnishing him witha new idea, of whieh he too often stands much in need. {Those who have been led astray by the absurd falsehood, censtantly propa- gated by the ‘Tory Press, to the effect, that Responsible Government has been productive of * Ruin and Decay” in Ca- nada, will probably open their eyes am- azingly wide to the following statement of the Returns of the Custom House and!

The Customs Returns for the first ten wonthe of 1°50, present an astonishing result, --speaking volumes ns to the pros- perity of Canada. Up to the 3st Oct., the new receipts into the Provincial Treasury ‘rou Customs alone were no less than £520,902! The Customs duties for 1848 were £304,358, and fer 1849, | £412,626 ;—the receipts in ten months noon, at the residence of Messrs.

Should this be tne result, the Custains Revenue for 1250 will be £610.000 —or the enormous Increase ef &fty per cent. in one year. And we are happy to say that the reeipts from the Public Works also show gratifying results. Up to the 3lst October, {[849, the Revenue from this department was £64.601; up to the same day of this year it was £76,673—or an increase of £12,072. A very pleasing feature is this increase is that it has not been constant throughout the year, but on comparing the different months o 1850 with the corresponding terms in 1849, the increase is seen to be progress- ive throughout the ten months. In the éarly months the improvement over 1849 was very light, but in August the in- crease rose to £2,715; in Meptember to £3,326; and in October to £3,645. Showing that the route is becoming better known. The remarkable prosperity of every branch of industry in the Province, is too evident to be denied by the most inveterate grumblers. ‘The crop has been usually large, woney is plentiful, and mercantile accounts are jiquidated with greater puuctuality probably than in any previous year, ‘The head of a large but a matter of speculation; but these Stranded ow the Gulph Shore, Bustern two monihs yielded in 1848 £62,174, and: at the rate of increase of the previous | STOLEN from the Subscriber’s Stable and one by no means inclined from pol) tical motives to colour the picture, ad- vitted last week that there had never been in Canada times so prosperous as the present.
