Smuggling. [heading]
To the Editor of the Royal Gazette. [centered]
Observing in your paper of the 15th instant, a notification to the subscribers, "for a piece of plate intended to be presented" to one of the oldest and most respectable inhabitants of this Colony, Charles Edmonstone, Esq. - I cannot help remarking, that the subscription had been carried on in that underhand way which was never yet known in this Colony, in the good old times, when friendship and sincerity reigned; and that too, by persons almost strangers, but who are designated the Great Wheels. What, sir, must the feeling of so worthy a character as Mr. Edmonstone be, when a small junto of the Community only come forth, while the great mass of this society would have gladly contributed their share in the intended present? Had a meeting been called, as formerly was done on such occasions as this, I have no doubt but more ample funds would have been subscribed by some old inhabitants, who know how to appreciate his character and services to this Colony, although not what are vulgarly called "Great Wheels." The mark of respect would have been more grateful to the feelings of the individual.
A Little Wheel.
