AN ADDRESS TO THE ADMINI-
STRATOR,
The Hon. P. Rycle, addressing the Admini. strator, said Your Excellency, the pleasing duty has been assigned to me of presenting to you a numerously signed address from the community of this Colony. When I state that this has been a spontaneous movement on the part of all classes in the Colohy, I state what is an absolute fact. I believe that I may be considered the oldest British resident in the Colony, and during the long period of my stay here I bave taken part in a good many demons trations of this kind, and I can truly say that 1 have never seen more anxiety displayed. by the inhabitants to testify by their signatures the feeling they entertains of your high abili- ties as the Head of the Executive. The address as you will observe, is numerously signed by representatives of all nationalitics, but there are still a number of gentlemen anxious to join in it who from press of time have not had an opportunity of doing so. With your kind per- mission these signatures can be appended here- after. I shall now, with your permission, pro
from them.

Jeffreys we are told, or anybody like Jeffreys, is impossible nowadays, because of the freedom of speech which would at once exterminate him-- the freedom of speech which is represented in ́ its freest, and easlest, manner by the Presa of England. Still, let us, for the sake of assuming It, assume that there is a judge upon the bench who, forgetful of his duties there, sums up and directs a jury without fully considering the bal- ance of evidence, without fully-dwelling upon the rights of the side which does not offer ligelf to his favouring notice. Now, despite the supposed readiness of the Press to seize upon and de nounce such an offender-and the Preas certainly never has done anything of the sort-there are people who believe that judges could be found who, not once or twice or a dozen times during the course of their career, have pointed out to the jury all the sallent and, we may well say, win- ning features of one side, and signally omitted to point out the similar features of the other.
