he should be glad to have some te-
liable information on the matter, and
suggests the appointment of a joint
Committee of the two houses of le-
gislature.
The Governor then goes on to sug-
gest ''If the intimaIiOn made to me is
true, the Committee will doubtless
consider the propriety Of passing q
temporary enactment giving prefer
ence to charge on next crop for cul-
t%ivatiom within certain limits. If the
Committee should not think such a
course desirable i will perhaps re-
commend the passing of so'ne other
enactment to meet the difficulty
which is stated to exist.
The Globe of the 9th. inst, com.
menting on this says:-
We hope the Committee will be
able to report against the necessity of
the Legislation suggested by the Gov
ernor, for not only will the measure
be q fresh affection on people who
subsiSt on interest money, but it will
stomp a stigma of bankruptcy on the
people Of the Colony, injurious alike
to their credit abroad, and their self
complacency at home. We do not of
course blind ourselves to the fact that
ven these considerations, important
as they are, must yield TO the para,
mount necessiry-if the necessity APP
pear--of maintaining by usual mea-
sures cultivation on the Plantations,
