But in the meantime the boat had hecome leaky and unmanageable, and it at last sunk, at a distance of nearly a mile from the tower. The lamps which the party carried with them were also extinguished. The water at that place was about up to their waists, so they had as best they mighf to raise the boat, and as it would not carry them, carry it with them to the place where they first embarked in it, wading through the tunnel in the dark, until they at last perceived a light, which was exhibited by one ‘of their companions, who had remained under the entrance tower.

LI hope the day | is pot fur distant when the fishing boat will be a curiosity, and our waters whitened with our stately schooners in pursuit of the finny tribes. Then, and not till then, may we expect to see the splendid tracte of land, at present neglected, along vur coast thoruwghly and profitably cultivated, aud our fishermen prosperous and happy. lam, dear Sir, Your huuable servant, J.

Private character and public decency should not be sllowed to be outraged with impunity, se long as redress can be bud by applying tu the proper tribunal.

Laird, Davies, Kelly, Mr. President and Honourable Gentlemen of" the Legislative Counci : Mr. Speaker and Gentlemen of the House of Assembly : The time at which it was deemed advisable to dissolve the last Assembly, and the Minis- terial arraugemeéuts which were the result of the General Kiections, have prevented me frum summoning you at an earlier periud tor the discharge of your Legislative duties. Although the lateness of your meeting must be attended with inconvenience to you, | rely with coufidence upon your dePuting suthicient time to mature such measures as the exigen- cies of the Colony aud its Public Service may require. During the recess the purchase of extensive estates has been effected—the particulars of which wiil be laid before you. I do not fail to observe the general desire evinced by the tenautry to ebiain the fee simple of their land by the purchase of their turms. My elforts are, therefore, directed to- wards extending the action of the Laud Pur- chase Bill to such parts of this Island us have not yet participated in its benefits, and 1 shall evdeayour, under its provisions, to buy out the interest of the remaining Proprietors in the comparatively small portion of the land which is now held under Leasehold -Tenure. The means of providing funds for this purpose will require your serious consideration, The important question ot Education will agaiu be submitted tor your consideration, with the view of improving the position of the School Teachers, and otherwise rendering the laws now iu force on this subject more efficient and more extensively useful. Mr. Speaker and Gentlemen of the House of Assembly : The Public Accounts fur the past year will be laid before you. The Keveuue has increased, but the Expenditure has been largely in excess of ordinary years, on account of the purchase of the estates to which I have s!luded, and the amount required for iilitary purposes, Tne estimates for the current year will be submitted to you. They have been framed with due regard to economy, Mr. President and Honourable Gentlemen of the Legislative Councit : Mr. Speaker and Gentlemen of the House of Assembly : The advantages to be derived from the de- velopment of local industry and from improve. meuts in Agriculture are well worthy of your atteution, and I shall be glad to co-operate with you in such measures as you may devise for the advancement of these interests. The serious loss incurred by the total unfit- ness of the highways to support the yearly in- creasing traflic renders it absolutely necessary that the whole question should undergo,a thorough investigation with a view to the adoption of a better system. Your experience will readily sugyest the most appropriate means of collecting information on this important subject as a prelimiuury step to future Legisla~ tion. In full reliance on your zeal for the welfare of the Colony, J now leave you to the discharge of your Legislative duties. Hon.

We trust that the remaining Proprietors of Township lands, who have not as yet evinced a disposition to part with their lands under the provisions of the Laud Pur- chase Bill on fair abd liberal! terms, will see the advisability now of forwarding yoar Excel- lency’s wiews in that respect ; aud we can assure your Excellency that we are fully impressed with the importance of making every. exertion to extinguish the leasehold tenure, and secure to the occupant of the soil a more independent interest in his labor and improvements. The means of providing funds for the foregoing object shall receive our careful and serious conside ration, 5. Tre important question of Education shall receive our deliberate attention whenever it shall be brought before us, whether it be with the view of impreving the position of the School Teachers, or otherwise rendering the law now in force relating to Education more habitanits of the Colony. 6.

Dr. Moriarty, the Roman Catholie Bishop of Kerry, who has lately obtamed considerable popularity asooog the Irish Conservative party lor bis denunciations of Fenianism, is now off their good bog ks, in consequence of a very xtrong attack upon the Ivish Established Chureh. He declares that is the one patent wrong which gives an opportunity to agitators and av apology for disloyalty. It is the abiding and ever-present rewembrance of the old war of races and of the English conquest. Moreover, it is not only a poli- tical, but a great moral evil. Tt engenderea most dangerous state of conscience. The Bishop adds that he does not dasire to appropriate the endow- mente of the Establichment tothe Roman Catholic elergy. He desires te maintain the ties which bind the clergy to the people by making the first dependeat upon the second for their daily bread. He will not condemn endowmente, for if he did the Church would condemn him ; but he believes lished the Chureh will be flourixhing.” . same time be sees noe objection to the allocation of a portion of the funds of thePstabMahwent to the repair of Reman Catholic churcbes aud the mainteuance of diocesan schools, ——- <-> .
