No one giving himself the time and having
the opportunity to become more intimately ac-
quainted with tho labouring population Of this
Island, will get the impression that the people
are an INDECENT, depressed and detected popu-
l%ation, from whom is extorted the greatest pos.
sible amount Of lubour for the lowest possible
amount Of wages. Look at them whan at work,
and it will be seen that they are a well-fed and
able-bodied set Of people look at them at
evenings in the ncgrO-yilIages, and it will be
seen that they are not deficient Of lively tenn
peraments and good humour look & at them in
the markets on Saturdays, and it will be seen
with how much cleyernoss they understand to
trade look at them on Sundays in the differ
ent Churches, or on their way to or from them,
and it will be seen that they are not mere
drudges for the sake OF Sustaining their material
existence. Strangers from other Westindia
Islands visiting this place, have frequently ex-
pressed their appreciation Of the favorable posi-
ton in which the labourers here exist. And
this favorable position is to a very great extent
just owing to the fixed and settled position, in
which the labonrerJ by law are placed aud pro-
tected on the Estate where he is employed.
Their dwellings, on the Estate do not merely
afford them a shelter; to the Industrious labour-
er, and more particularly if he has a family,
those dwellings, have quite another significance;
they are the means of obtaining a great many
more extra earnings, which under the appella-
ton Of privileges" have been established
and on many Estates constitute a very essential
portion of the labourers' requirements. In the
fruit-growiug parts Of the Island, the greatest
number of the fruit-trees on the Estates are at
the disposal of the labourers, and their income
from the sale o fruit, poultry and swine amounts
to something pretty considerable, as almost all
articles of that description consumed in the Is
land, or exported from here, are bought from the
labourers. The number of ponies kept and fed
on the Estates is at all events a sign of prospe-
rity, and at the same time as they constitute
a source of revenue, they also contribute to the
comfort and we'll being of their possessors. In
the plot of land allotted to the labourer, he cul-
tiVates potatoes and yams and other culinary
vegetables, with which he also supplies the mar
ket. Of the money wages of Is cts. to a first class
labourer for an ordinary days labour, a certain
portion is given him in the shape of provisions
(cornmeal and fish charged at the rate of S cts.
pr. diem or 25 cts. pr. week, but having in reality
amuch greater value to which may be added,

The Chairman with regard to the amendments proposed by him., said that he lad proposed
them in order to bring the Ordinance in a form consistent with previous legislation for the Colonies
when extending hwsf for the Mohncounty tbs expedent that such Ordinance shoud always
present themselves as extending he Laws and he could see no reason to give up tatp principle
The amendments proposed by him would no way fleet the contents ofh e0rdrance Hsef, but
simply bring tin fMn; he had therefore nOtc considered necessary to vacae his atm introducing
then.
The VTgoycmu stated Hmhe Enforcement agreed to the amendments proposed by the
Chairman. With rnd ohea amendments from Government it will be seen that they have been
proposed also in st Thomas Hew would, in referring to what he had stated on a former occasion,
beg to Observe that it w8 at first INTENDED only to adHs such measures in the respect here treated
Otat would have immediate action here that however afterwards been cOnidaedn not quite
sufficient but that there's should ao be taken Their N1ate regard to the terMtonats side of the mat
intentional rules ob8wdc elsewhere. twill also be seen that an amendment has been proposed
agreeable to that wsm suggested at the LIST dsmdnby 5hC Crown Member Ou9 about fines in
susm proceeding from trEyeMon dhe rules, SO that's nc fnsw vii acne tte Poicamd, the
same as all other similar fines.
End Member for Cbnstanscl( Hamo) said he had been told that in ST Thomas there. are
vessels ofupt to I6 hmb uthen emIyodn carrying ballast; he wond beg to enquire If they are
to be exempted from carrying lanterns
The Chairman pointed out that by the amendments proposed by the Government S z of tho
Draft will be hWk III. and replaced by the deaHd uHSi in the new g.
AsnO one further desired to have the word, the Chairman closed the 2l discussions and put
uea amendments to vh, as follows:

occasionally, namely in crop time, certain other
Extras, particularly Sugar and-unfortuuately-
Rum. His first ncccssaries of life are thus Sc
cured him, and he enjoys this great benefit,
thu any scarcity Of those articles does not af-
feet him and when it is objected against the
daily wages that they are too small, particularly
when compared with what Is given elsewhere,
there is lost sight of the great advantage Of the
laborer hauing lis subsistence pr0cided for tie
a0hOle Yeur throughout, regardless as to whether
it Is a good or bad year for the planter, irres-
pectiye as to whether his labour is required or
not whilo in other places where the daily
wages are certainly higher than here, a great
number Of the iabourers can get no fixed work
aud have but a poor life of it, oftentimes emf
grating aud sometimes Occasl0nlng disturbances
and tumuIts. But, it is further objected, even
by many who otherwise fully admit the eXis-
tence Of the above stated advantages and bane-
fits it is an unbelievable injustice, that the pay
is the same for the Industrious and strong la
bourer, as for the idle and decrepit labourer
and it has certainly not been SO very easy to
meet this objection; the best argument that
has been offered to it is this, that the Injustice
or unfairness has in reality been far less than
represented, and than was originally expected
it would have been,-owing to the classification
of the labourer8. A labourer possessing the
necessary physical qualifications for employ
ment as a list class feld-labourer-such was tho
idea-can perform a portion of work worth q re-
enumeration of Is cts. pr. day besides the other
support given him "a labourer not having
that medium wor king-capacity, belonged to the
2ud class, and his work represented a value OF
10 cents pr. day. AS long, then, as the parties
were scrupulous in observing what labourers
could really answer as first class labourers, or,
as long as the rate of a days labour was not al
lowed to go below what q labourer of middle
strength could perform, the unfajrness or dis
proportion was not SO very great, since the va
Iue represented by the able-bodied but idle la
bourer will generally shew itself in this, that he
neglects bis working-days, consequently fails to
earn his pay, and not that his work is less
when he is engaged in it. If, besides, it be re-
membered that it is pretty uniform work for
which the rate of wages is fixed, it will be
found that the disproportion is not quite so
glaring as it has been pronounced to be, and
defects of a similar nature in the ratio between
labour and wages could be pointed out almost
every where, in every extensive husbandry, in
every mandatory, in every industrial occupa-
ton, carried on by the labour of permanently
employed hands. 1t must, however, be admit
ted that by degrees greater and greater diSpro-
portion has crept in, chiefly owing to the plan
ters not being ~scrupulously observant in the
abovestated respects, By other means it has
