Wk love waited with sonic impatience for the Government to publish in the Gazette the names of those gentlemen whom it has appointed to be members of the Harbor Board, and now we have reason to believe that it has seen cause to depart from its original intention to include 3lr. ScjirrEKs name amongst those whom it it intends to favor, and has substituted the name of the Hon. Rocekt Cocpbeu. for that of Mr. Soiitei:. It id not our object in referring to this subject to comment upon the action of the Government in making this change from its announced intentions. We stated some time ago that Mr. Si'mitkk. with three other gentlemen, had been appointed by the Government : ami, now that we have received fresh light upon the subject, which shows that such is not the ease, we give it to our readers in order to remove any false impression that may exist in consequence of our statement.
