Tux Royal Gazette of Thursday last contained the usaal ficial notification of the Royal assent having been given to several Acts passed during the last Session of the Legislature f this Colony. Amongst these are two measures which met with stout oppesitien from the Proprietary party — Her Ma- jesty having again been pestered with petitions to nullify the setion of her Colonial Legislature. There is no doubt that the independent stand taken by the Government and by the the Queen on the subject ef proprietary interference with the legislation of the Cofeny, has had its due weight in securing the favourable

House of Assembly last Session, in addressing

consideration of the Imperial Government to the Bills in ques-

tion. The Act relating to ejectments and distresses — the first

of these alluded to— is a measure of groat importance to the |

twnantry of this Island. In introducing that Bill in the As-

aaah aan

et!

ance

sembly, the leader ef the Government said, that if it were to become law, he would regard it as a measure next in import- ance to the Tenant Compensation Bill, which Mer Majesty had thought proper to disallow; for, when a tenant became so unfortunate as to get in arrear with his landlord,and an action of ejectment had been commenced against him, he would be at liberty to pay his rené at any time before the Sheriff actually preceeded to dispossess him, and «thus be enabled to retain possession of his farm, notwithstanding the covenant in his lease relating to forfeiture for non-payment of rent.

The other Act ‘‘ to explain and amend the Statute of limita- |

‘tions of actions concerning real estate,”’ is intended as a remedy for a decision given by the Court here some time since, in re- ference to holding real estate by possession. The Court de-

‘cided that before the right of possession could be exercised,

te party claiming it should have held the place in dispute for at least forty years, provided the former owner were absent from the island during the whole of that time, notwithstand- ing he may have had an agent here during the whole term; but if he was on the Island, a possession undisturbed for twenty years would be sufficient. Now the object of the new Act is to secure to the occupier the property, if he has been in possession for the sleorter period, provided the absent pro- prietor, who may seek to dispossess him, has had an agent or representative in the Island during that period. One of the objections — and perhaps the most candid and forcible — offer- ed by the Proprietors against the Bill under consideration, is — that as all Agents are persons not to be trusted, the rights of the Principals might, in many instances, be sacrificed. We have no doubt of it; but if proprietors will allow their interests to be neglected or sacrificed by unworthy agents — whose real object is to possess themselves of the lands for the management of which they profess to act —there should be no sympathy or If they want to get rid of that anxiety which the possession of their estates brings upon them, and extricate themselves from the harpy grasp of their agents, they sheuld unbesitatingly avail themselves of the readiness of the

consideration for them.

Government to purchase their property at remunerating prices.

We have two motives for congratulation in announcing the triumph of the Government and the popular party in our Le- gZislature over the Obstructive Proprietors, with respect to the Fjectment and Limitation Bills. The first arises from the con- sideration that these measures will be attended with many

advantages to the tenantry—will secure the more unfortunate |4

against oppression and persecution—and shew to the country at large that our Government is not only as willing now, as it ever was, since the establishment of Responsitle Government, but is in a better position to carry out substantial reforms in the law, #0 material to the well-being of a large majority of our population. The second motive for congratulation is to be found ia the fact—that the prestige of the Proprietary faction has departed —that their influence is no longer powerful tough to defeat useful legislation; and that henceforth the tittle Prince Edward Island ship of state may pursue the even tenor of its way, without being checked in its progress and despoiled by piratical adventurers.

a

he was presented with complimentary addresses by the corpo- ‘rations of Fredericton and St. John, and by some of the Cha- Societies of the latter place. The following address of | the St. Patrick’s Society, and the answer thereto, appear to

have some points of interest, and we therefore make rvom for

em :— | To His Exeellency Lieutenant General Sir William Eyre, |K. C. B., Commander-in-Chief of Her Majesty's Forces in | British North America, &e. &e. &e.

We, the Saint Patrick’s Society, of the City of Saint John, heg to offer to Your Excellency our most cordial weleome on the oceasion of your Excellency’s arrival in this City.

The very recent close of that momentous struggle in the | Crimea, in which you bore so conspicuous a part, renders your | visit one of deep interest to us all. | Your Excellency will readily believe that during the conti- |nuance of the war we watched with feelings of mingled plea- ‘sure and pain the progress of that heroic army, with which | your name isinseparably connected—pleasure at its astonishing success, and pain at the loss of so many gallant men, (some personally known to us,) who died a Soldier’s death before Sebastopol. | We feel, Sir, that to the already illustrious Military reputa- | tion of the British Nation, your achievements in the Mast have

imparted an additional brilliancy : and we assure you that it |is with no ordinary feelings of pleasure that we pay the pres- ent tribute of respect to one whose noble deeds in many a trying hour of danger have not less covered himself with glory than illustrated one of the brightest and most important pages of British history.

We have much pleasure in congratulating Your Excellency on your appointment to a post of command in these Provinces, the importance of which proves that your eminent services have not been unappreciated by your Queen and Country.

We beg, Sir, in conclusion, to express our heartfelt prayer and earnest hope, that Your Excellency may long live to wear the laurels and enjoy the honors you have so nobly won, and that in any future struggle of Liberty against Despotism, the honor of the British Flag may ever be defended by spirits as brave and chivalrous as your own.

REPLY.

GentTLEMEN,—I feel very much obliged to the St. Patrick’s Benevolent Society of the City of St. John, for the kind and handsome Address with which they have thought proper to honor me. Having lived so auch among your warm-hearted and: generous countrymen,—for a very large portion of the Regiment 1 formerly had the honor to command, viz :—the 73d Regiment, were composed of Irish, nothing could be more gratifying to my feelings, than the cordial welcome you have shown me. Of those gallant spirits to whose services in the East you so feelingly allude, none distinguished themselves more than the Irish. Among the first to advance, they were

tient under privations, light-hearted, and even cracking their okes in the midst of their sufferings; they were at all times true to their duty, good soldiers, and patriots,—ready to lay down their lives for their Queen and Country. I assure you, gentlemen, this is not the language of flattery—as I have seen them, so I deseribe them. It will be a source of gratification to you and other inhabitants of this portion of Her Majesty’s dominions, to feel that you not only sympathise with your ‘countrymen in their achievements and their sufferings, but came forward with a subscription to alleviate those sufferings,

‘and minister to their comforts. Were I an inhabitant of this |

Province, I should certainly be proud of the act as long as I lived. It will assuredly not be forgotten by the British army, /nor by the country. It was a noble act of disinterestedness and generosity, worth al] the wealth in the world. I am also _ very much gratified by the handsome terms in which you speak of my own services personally. I have endeavoured to do m duty, but it is comparatively easy work to command men oak as compose the British army. There are no men like them ; such at all events is my belief. In peace time they do not attract mach attention, and I only hope they will not be re- , quired in war to show what their real worth is. Gentlemen, | farewell : . | WM. EYRE, Lieutenant General. -
