The Pres ident could not see that any
practical result would be obtained by the
honorable Members suggestion. 1t could
always be found ont how much by degrees
has been remitted to the Statetreasury
and at what rate of exchange. But it is,
of course, another question, whether the
whole practice is to he continued, or not.
3rd Member for Chris iansted lLemmingl
said the practical tendency of his remarks
was to shew that he could not see how the
expenditure could be incurred, without its
appearing on the Budget.
1st Member for Christiansted Willard
said it would appear plain enough, that
there is certainly a less to The Treasury by
transmitting these monies through the
Treasury for account # officials at a lower
rate than what is paid by the Treasury for
reRittanees. But it was scarcely neces.
sary to go back and see what that loss had
been in the past years, as it cou d not now
DE recovered.-ln the face of the depleted
state of the Colonial Treasury, and as
there is now every facility of remitting
monies abroad through the banks, he did
not think that private officials should be
allowed at all to transmit monies for their
purposes if SO, the Treasury should
1o ACAoAiOO0 VIC CApcHSC VI IcuIICGIuS
such sums.
The President thought that the proper
Way to obtain q result would be to bring
in a proposal from the Council for an
alteration of the practice.
LIST Ccownmember fQuinl thought that
she error was in using an old rale of ex.
change, instead of the present ale. If,
Tor instance, The medium rates for a pre-
ceding year were used, it might not be
objec ionable; ii might sometimes cause an
ezra charge 10 me individuals, but at
other times it would result in a gain, COM.
pairing the rate with that of the banks at
the time. At all events, there would be no
loss 70 the Treasury, while now there is a
loss, which does not appear in the Budget
IN any shape.
And Crownmember (Kalmer) said these
discussions had gone further than was
intended in the Committees report, which
contains ne proposal as to the doing away
with what he could style Man old USAGE
since it is based on no law Or legal arrange
ment; still, we had heard one Member of
tho Committee recommending TO do away
entirely wi b the old custom in question.
of course he could not In point Of realty
have anything against that, and he would
even admit hat IN one sense, il might be

1t is on this ground that I say that
the Factory is in full working order,
and therefore | take the full response
bility but the planters responsible
lily will be equally full if they, by
leaving the factory in the lurch, pre-
vent it from working.
I have never been afraid to throw
myself personally into a matter that
I thoroughly believed in, and neither
am | afraid to do it as opposed to
Mr.H. Therefore in conclusion I will
give him this advice, that if he wishes
people to believe that tits the matter
itself which he has at heart, then he
should give the Government and the
Rigsdag or the Directors a full report,
signed with his name, of all that is
wrong with the st. Croix Factory.
And this he shoulddo for the Govern
ment's sake for the sake Of those
honorable people who here at home
have supported the undertaking with
their money and their exertions, and
those who in St. Croix Loyalty
adhere to the thought of carry ing
through the Factory Question; and
finally he should do it for the sake of
st. Croix. SO far as he really shares
an interest in this island which is the
moving cause of the whole matter,
and does not merely wish by this
channel to reach mo with agreeable
personal remarks.
