Amendment, that is to change their opln-
ions from one day to another from some
inexplicable ~ reason.
That the Exposition is sup to snuff" and
we'll posted in Crucian affairs IS seen by
his narrowing down the question OF table
money to this, "that because the Governor
will not invite u few free scribblers who
exercise their free agency by abusing the
Government, therefore he shall not invite
ANYBODY" | take it for granted that the
tale is true that the materials from when
these notes are manufactured ore furnished
by o Crucian who is very much interested
in the table but discretion torblds further
calculations. NY curiosity is tlckled TO
find out who that Mr.. ~" may be who
can take upon himself to have another
opjnion on d question of so much interest
to the cxrositor. Ut is to him one OF those
profound studies of the "CruCian mind" IN
which he delights to indu]ge). 1t Is a
thousand pities, Mr.. Editor, that these
"free s~cribbIers'' are not made to put their
names to their impertinent productions as
is done in the Tidende, for then 1t would
be possible for Government to single out
those black sheep and eifectua)ly exclude
them not only from "Elysian enjoyments
procured by the Table-moncy," but per
hans from "mere earthly en- oyments, rro-
cured in the sweat of the brow" AS it is,
Government is confined to those suspected
only,
Thcre is no speculation so wild that does
not present temptations too great to be re-
sisted by the representative exposltor. only
the other day he was snubbcd through your
columns for threatening us with his gas
blowing speculation, and now he makes u
murderous attempt on our already imnoVer-
ished finances in trying to persuade our
Council to pass o law to throw open the
plove-trade for the benefit Of bis I'LL
Clients of course. What neXt2
I try my best with that note in my W
peculiar way, but must most respectfully
beg the Colonial Notev for an explanatory
note to the following II. does not IN all
respects agree with air. Ciindinen's state
ments, and vet he denies the truthfulnces
of Mr.. C.'s dark picture"
The Expositor very rightly comes to
the conclusion that our Council, as at pre-
sent packed, does not represent public
opinion on this question, but that the Avis
and its correspondents do. These things
will sometimes happen, even in so we'll re-
gulated communities as st. Thomas. l
forbear quoting from the Tidendo to prove
that, knowing that it would "hurt the ex-
p%ositor's feelings"
The argument that the Vice Governor
represents the community, and that there
fore he ought to have his W way with it,
is capital, and deserves to be quoted at
length. 1t requires no comment. [ pro-
mise you not to forget it when it suits me
again to make use of it. 1t is the follow
ing: "But, allowing that his President
in whose place now stands the Vice Gov
ernor-does represent the Community,
then, as the Vice Governor has been strong
" in favor of the table money, it follows
that the Community, through their repre-
sentative, favour the table money. Aud it
is pretty certain that the Community,
through their representative, "Z's' Presi-
dent, will always favour the Table Money,
and the "Avis'' and its correspondents will
continue to be left out in the cold.''-With
the thermometer at 9Oo Fahrenheit / for
one should have nothing against being lett
alittle in the cold especially accompanied
with o little moisture. If the Expositor
can get me exposed to that for some time,
l shall with pleasure dispose of every Note
he NAV be pleased to infict on me, not being
