The Director of the Observatory has already, established a reputation for puguacity and obstructiveness, and the Executive know it hotter than any one clas in the Colony. Why should on impracticable man, whose setion is to be seriously called in question, be placed: in the position of judge or white washer of his own official conduct? Dr Dobarck is generally regarded by the Executive as the most difficult sub- ordinate to manage and deal with of all the officials in this unfortunatè Colony. 2/6To make the Director of the Observa- tory other than a witness before tho Committes which,will sit to-morrow, is not the happiest mode of bringing the worthy Doctor to reason. These queerly. constituted Commissions may be intand- ed by His Excellency the Governor as the monument be purposes leaving be bind him in this Colony. There have been one or two already; and this inquiry into the Observatory, if it be con- ducted under the direction and chair- manship of Dr Doberck, will formanother instance of how not to do it.
