a speech of some length, but the
Court was not 10 be moved SO the
peddier, like Col. Joyce, despite lis
eloquence, had to endure the penal

Again it is our painful duty to record
the death Of q man who will be much
missed, not only by his family, q wife
and several children left behind to mourn
their loss, not only by the larger but still
comparatively narrow social circle to
which any man more especially belongs,
and to which even the most sociable must
put certain limits, but by the whole com.
munity, with which he was identi-
fed as but few men are, being always, at
the same time, among the foremost to see
and appreciate what was sound and good
among the so-caIled new-fangled ideas.
The deceased, Mr.. HUGH Nc. WILLIAM
who died on Monday afternoon, in the 55th
year Of his age, at his residence, Estate
AIIandale, was a native of Scotland,
where he vas educated to the pro-
iession of an engineer. AS such he
came to this island nearly % years ago.
During the time he followed this avoca-
ton, he has truly earned a high reputa-
ton for skill, assiduity and honesty, and
the high esteem in which he was held by
his fellow citizens, not in his profession
al capacity alone but as a man with many
other sterling qualities, was evinced by
his repeated election to the Colonial
Council and other places Of trust, and last.
~, though perhaps not least, by the extra
ordinarily large c~oncourse of FRIENDS &
AcQUAINTANCEs who accompanied his re-
mains to their last resting place. He
belonged to the Episcopalian Church and
was buried in Frederiksted yesterday
afternoon by the Reverend Mr.. Du Bots.

Being en- the subject of clearing the
position OF the Avis to honorable Cotem-
poraries, so as to prevent misunderstood
ing3, we would beg to point out to the
" st. Thome Tidende," that its version Of
our resume of the Colonial Councils Pro-
ceedings on the 14th instant, is not quite
correct. Whether the Inspector Of
Buildings has a troubled time OF it" or not,
we cannot tell, but this much we are in a
position to maintain that honorable MEM
bers" [ofour Council have not found
fault with him for keeping within his
Estimates, " nor has any such thing been
said or minated in our resume. 1t was
merely remarked during the debate that
"tbe expenses for repairs to public build
ings always tally to a cent with the esti-
mates, showing a nicely of calculation
almost Incredible" Whether that be
indicative of any particular difficulty in
pleasing our brethren on the other side Of
the water" or not, we leave to our es-
teemed Contemporary to decide. For the

ses." Now, we do not know whether there
is sufficient Danish silver or not, but for
arguments sake we may assume that there
ia not, and further that the amount of
foreign coin required to supply the
deficiency IS as much as $50, 600, which
amount the Government would receive
in American coin - per cent. below gold.
When it has received that amount it stops,
we suppose, although that is nowhere said
or intimated. But by that time the trea-
sury would have had a loss of $4,000, with
the possibility, if not probability, of still
further loss, the magnitude Of which would
depend on further fluctuations in future,
Aud this amount would not all have gone
into the pockets OF the tax-payers,-whose
share they would have taken out of one
pocket to put into another, the taxpayers
and treasury being identical in Interest,"
but a good portion oft would have gone
into the greedy hands OF spectators.
But how shall We deal with the last
remark of the Times +? It asserts that
" the measure the receiving OF SIS Ameri-
can silver in the treasury would also
tend to aIlay the unjushdabIe fear that is
by degrees permcatlng all classes, that the
u, s. silver currency is intriusicalIy worth
much less than its face represents" we
would say to this 1t a silver Dollar or
Dime were intrinsicaIIy worth so much
value in gold, which is the standard, would
it not have the same purchasing power as
the gold all over the world The fact is,
however, that it has not, even in its own
home, where, as every one knows, a dollar
in silver is worth about so cents in gold.
And is it not presumiug 100 much to ina
CINE that any measure taken by our Gov
eroment or any other party or parties in
these islam Is, "mere sppc,s in the Ocean"
could have aay influence whatever in al
laying permanently any fear that may
be permeatin9 any class or classes on a
subject like that Of the depreciation
of silver, necessarily including silver
coin Our own silver coin, although in
trinsicaliy worth bat a fraction u, we
beijeve) OF what its face represents, we
can agree TO pass among ourselves at It's
face value, because His Majesty under the
authority OF the Jaw has decread that it
Shall be considered as worth 50 much. II
we lave too little Of it, let US have more
made by all means, and without delay, and
keep the treasury and the people tree lroma
q coin over the fluctuations in value Of
which we have no more control than we
have over the movements of the Grand
Turk. It is a long time since the decimal
coin now in use here was introduced, and
the Government might have found means
even long ago to ascertain whether we
have enough of it or not.
If we have not got enough of it, we
hope more will be made, aud that the
Government will act in that respect with
the same promptitude eyiuced in the ex-
pulsion OF the nuisance |occasioned by the
circulation of a coin which, driven from q
home where its purchasing power has
come down to the level Of the shin
plaster, would naturally seek a place
where it was more appreciated. Things
will 60 where they are most valued.
