•Speaking of the ea7icelling of the Brunner Coal Company's lease, the We.stport Times says ; — In connection with this mmt 1 , Mr Frazer of this town, to whom a lease was promised sn&e years ago, before it was handed over to the quashed company, h.a3 sent in another petition to the Provincial Council, to consider his claim and grant him compensation for the wrong he and others unquestionably suffered. Though no lease was actually issued, yet the promise of one was positively made, and had it bnen fulfilled, it is quite possible that the mine, before tins, would have been properly opened and profitably worked.
