to oflTor their united suggestions, as they can IrWt under the certainty of their receiving favourable consideration. Probably the best mode of doing so would be to call a public meeting, and to have a proper address prepared ready to pn to His Excellency immediately on his return amongst us. The matters mentioned in such address could be well considered by the Governor, prior to the next sitting of the Legislative Council, when we donbt not but that many measures calculated to meet the views of the Colonists, would be brought forward. We offer this as a passing suggestion, and invite the consideration of our Fellow Colonists aft to the good likely to result from such a course being adopted. While we have every confidence in the wisdom of His Excellency, it is still certainly necessary that N we should put our shoulders to the wheel," and testify in the strongest manner possible to the Government our anxiety to promote the general interests in the colony.
