lewett, now is the time for them. to make themselves heard. Ca general grounds the project, which is one involving a special. expenditure of a quarter of a million dollars, might very well be shelved until it is more clearly revealed to what extent the revenue of the Colony will be advarsely siteated by the war.

There are several projects in the list which may be classed, se necessary but not urgent, and should the course of public events render it necessary, these, among which may be included the acquisition of the harbour moor- inge, may very well be postponed to more prosperous times,
