WEST INDIA MAIL.—TIIE C USTOIII-HOUSE.—The
British Possessions Act, passed towards the close of the late
session, removes all reasonable pretext for reserving the
colonial Customs' appointments to the Home Government.
So long as Imperial duties were imposed in favour of the
mother country's produce there was a shadow of a pretext
fur this arrangement. It might be said that local officers ap-
pointed by local authorities might connive at evasions of the
Imperial restrictive policy in favour of local interests. All
that is now at an end. Colonial Customs' duties are only to
be levied in future for purposes of revenue, and they are to
be imposed by the local Legislatures—where there are any.
It will be found conducive to general economy, and to
honest discharge of duty, that the power of nominating
to and removing from such offices should also be vested
in the local authorities. The remote Imperial Board
of Customs cannot detect and check delinquencies
in subordinate officers so well as a local assembly or council.
The only use of retaining such appointments in the Board of
Customs is to enable its members to diffuse their patronage
in favour of retainers over a wider sphere. As long as the
Board of Customs dispense these appointments the colonies
will be subject to periodical immigrations of small, conse•
quential officials, looking down upon the " natives," and re-
lying for support against all accusations upon their great
friends at home. There is no convincing home authorities of
the delinquencies of such protégés. With a noble spirit of
independence the creatures themselves bid defiance to all at-
tempts of the colonial representatives to keep them in the
line of their duty. They are a nuisance in the colonies; and
all the benefit the mother country derives from their ap-
pointment being vested in the Board of Customs Is, the per-
petuation and aggravation of low political corruption.
Musgrave Brisco, Esq., M.P., and Mrs. Brisco have
left Harrogate for their seat, Coghurst Hall, near Hastings,
Sussex.
