13. Governor Dan. Searle to the Council of State. The island still enjoys peace and quiet. Has of late had several meetings with the Assembly; they desire a law to be made for the Assembly to continue for one year, and a new election to take place about every August; also that an Act of Parliament disabling delinquents from bearing office or having any voice in elections may not be put in force in Barbadoes. Reasons why the Act has not hitherto been strictly adhered to; as opportunities have presented, the more violent have been dismissed from public trust, and the most moderate chiefly made use of.
