My last, by the George Law, gave you the very
few incidents that occurred up to that period. Since
then nothing very important has transpired.
Our LIZ gslature still remains in session, and the
members are not likely to finish their business be-
fore the Christmas holidays.
The most important, if not the only important,
question still undecided by the Assembly, is that of
responsible government. 1t is a settled point
among all parties that some change in our cons.itu-
ton is necessary. Indeed, the Assembly agreed,
few days ago, to authorize the appointment by the
Governor Of two members of the Assembly to act as
govern organs in the house; and they agreed to
allow them $500 year. without any further ALLOW
ance for clerks and other expenses Of Office This
sum was subsequently considered to be inadequate
to the efficiency of the service, and it was unani-
mousy decided to reconsider the question, wh,h
was referred at once to a committee, who have not
vet reported. | thiI K the committee will re CON-
mend that the number of ministers to be appointed
from the house be three instead Of two, and that
one be also appointed from the COunci-each to re.
ceive 81 900 year.
think my self the new system will be decided
Improvement and hope to see it effectually carried
out. hear it rumored-but it is only rumor-
that the Governor will dissolve the Assembly before
he appoints his cabinet Whether he do so or not,
the ministers selected will have 10 60 to their con-
stueuts. BY the next steamer may DO abe to &C.
quaiti you that settled plan has been agreed to by
| the House.
The weather here is particularly fine. There have
been in Kingston some refreshing rains; but they
have ceased, and the north winds prevail contiou-
Cusy In the interior the rains have been very
heavy indeed, and the rivers SO swollen that an in-
teruption to postal communication has taken place.
