These, it may be said, are private grievances, but they seam to us to touch the duty of the Gov. ernment to foster instead of hamper the bonest and legitimate trade of the port.
His Excellency was remarkably vague as to the manner in which he intends carrying out his avowed policy of promo ting education. No doubt he had good reasons for being so; perhaps he does not yet know exactly what he intenda doing himself. From what can be ge- thered from his remarks, it would seem that, in the first place, efforts are to be made to keep children longer at school, and to teach them more English-both of which proposals will, we think, receive general approval.
