The old merchants stood In their way, and they lind ti contend with tho Interests mid predilections of those- merchants. He had been at considerable piins and some loss of tinto in arguing the question with tho vailuus, gcntlotncn to whom ho had presento I the petition fur ilgnntui o'; and iillhiitigli ho bal notobtnlned to munya» betiouldhavo dcsltcd, yet still the lias porsuaited that if tho peuple of Williamstown »co but true to t'iem»elves, and ir. ubi continuo tu iigitatc Uns question, tLoy must, lit the end, sit cecil.

Mr. Mitxon holng called on by the chalr'nan, sold that tho people of Williamstown knew tholr own »anti, llieso wjitts werd lighters am! steamers, liter« was pi jn y of w ork for them, but at prcseat all their bonded gon Is I,ad to go to Melbourne, and the lighters and stcimcra »pent n great deal of their money thero ; «lierc.is, if ire liad lioniled store«, all the lUitormon «ould have their business In Wil- li mislown, and the stoamera a much - larger portion of It ; all the beat of the good« moro 'ver woco by the present system dlsp-Tswl of is Molb luri.e, and it was only tho refino Hi t wa» per- mitted to come luck to us. The speaker urged ovary boily to do his best In forwarding tho matter In hand, both by bl» public and private Interest, for weil assured »as lie t'l.nt on tho night when Uic debate should rome on, the Government would order un oil tho njmlueeo to

c»rry tho question. Melbourne waa not to dictate to tkem. Tlieie matter» were nicely niauagcd lu Mcl biume) the Collector of Customs and others of his colerio met afior dinner over their wine-all cronies together-they had their villas and their «cat« within easyrfcle or walk of each other:« residences, and It wa« in tliosc little visiting parties, In those little «nug oote ries, that the question of tho bonded stores at Williams, town waa decided, The 'Governor had formerly ex- près KI! himself of opinion Hut their ettabllsbment should Im granlal ; bat he, good etty man, had given awty the right to the cry of'tbe uflclal« by whom he was «nrrocniled ; he would recommend that the |*tltion should be signed by all th« muter« of vessels In the Bay, by all the inhabitant« of the town and country ¡ let the petition stand upon Its merits, and puih it through the house. H arc» evident we need look for very litt lo support from tho roon ot Mtlb.uriie, for they were the very ,men who hid no pro- perly hero. Ho had understood that the Governor wu favorable to the meaiure and had got Mr. Pascoe and Mr. M'Kay to aign the petl'lon, u well M Captain« Ferguson and Casey, and Dr. Wilkin«, all Government men ; bit still Die Influence of Melbourne had carried it »gainst ni. Ho would conclude by say- ing, with the last tpeaker, that the only couru lay in agitation.

Mr. Plaittnwe called the attention of the meeting to the fact, that none' or the people'» right« had ever been granted until urged by Ina people them. .elva, in . way Hut «howtd they www determined to have them) and Instance! the unstatctman-Hko proceeding« of the Government »Ith respect to the dig. ger« »nd the precipitated and aoirardly haste In which It" rfciDded'' the obn«x'ou« order oran Incrcued nt* for gold digging, when their very opponent», cantal to «»ve them from the hum Illation of ming thl« very word, had framed a petition, only uklng the Govern- ment "te potQittM IVW efwrxtfiM" of the order In que«, tlon. With «nott a wretchedly Imbeelle Oonrnment .uch an after-dinner lorked-rallih «ahsslituta of a Governor, he would urgo them to stand for their right», for he well knew that uni«»» th» Government »hould command a vastly higher order and gnater quantity of talent than It had ever yet done, any musson of the people *MKf succeed.
