whether in Wood, Leather, or Metals.WILLIAM McMASTER, CABINETMAKER AND UPHOLSTERER, 156, NOTRE DAME STREET, Begs to announce to the public of Montreal, that he has been appointed AGENT for Canada East, lor the sale of that invaluable Renovator of Varnished or Polished articles, named McCOMBIE\u2019S COMPOUND RESTORATIVE, lately discovered by Mr.McCombie of New York, and of which he is the sole Proprietor and Pa-tentee.The immense demand for the inestimable Composition throughout the United States, has made it difficult for the Proprietor to keep up the supply ; and the Agent feels confident that a few trials of it in this quarter of the Continent will afford such satisfactory results that the sale will be proportionately large.It is sold in Bottles, with directions for use, price 2s 6d

MACASSAR OIL.THE extraordinary efficacy, and happy amalgamation of its PURELY EXOTIC MATERIALS, have rendered it justly renowned throughout the world for its remarkable virtues in nourishing, preserving and beautifying the Human Hair.It insinuates its balsamic properties into the pores ol the head, nourishes the Hair in its embryo state, accelerates its growth, cleanses it from | Scurf and Dandrift\u2019, sustains it in maturity, and continues its possession of healthy vigour, silky softness, and luxurious redundancy, to the latest period of human life.Its operation in cases of baldness is peculiarly active, and in the growth of Whiskers, Eyebrows, and Mustachios, it is also unfailing in its stimulative operation.For children it is especially recommended, as forming the basis of a beautiful head of hair, and render., ing the use of the fine comb unnecessary.Its invaluable properties have obtained the especial patronage of Her Majesty the QUEEN, the COURT, and the whole of the ROYAL FAMILY of Great Britain, and of the several SG« VEREIGNS and COURTS of Europe.Premature Baldness.\u2014Mr.J.Sergeant, bookseller, of Linton, Cambridge, has made public a curious case of a young man, named Hoylock, of Ashdon, whose hair came off entire from some very unaccountable cause, and left him in a state of premature baldness.He purchased from Mr.Sergeant several popular preparations, which he applied, but without any effect whatever.At last, however, he made trial of the Macassar Oil nf Messrs.Rowlands, of London, and exhibited to the most incredulous the proof of its efficacy in a thick crop of hair.Mr.Sergeant permits a direct reference to him on this very interesting fact.\u2014 The Observer.Price 3s 6d and 7s ; Family Bottles (equal to four small) at 10s 6d ; and double

Our city has been thrown out of its equilibrium for some weeks past by the exhibitions of Mr.Alin, a professor of the mesmeric art.Opinions as to the truthfulness or otherwise of simple and phreno-mesmerism, clairvoyance, and their relatives, have been very opposite.The public has now begun to settle down a little into its wonted quiet, and men and women are beginning to discuss the subject in a somev/hat reasonable manner, and hence are likely sooner or later to arrive at a sound conclusion.Mr.Alin\u2019s manner and abilities have ceased to interest the gossips, and the facts of mesmeric science have become the subject of grave discussion.Few doubt but that there is something in all this; whatever may be their doubts, they cannot dispute the facts.It is ineontrovertable, that men and women have been thrown into what are called mesmeric slumbers,during which they are more or less under the influence ol the operator,that while so they are capable of holding converse with the mesmeriser, manifest all the symptoms of mental life, and are insensible to pain and suffering ; these, and other equally novel facts, are incontrovertible.The next inquiry is, what it is, and whence does it arise ?By what agency are these things produced?Some attribute them to satanic, others to medical agency ; and others trace in them a league between the mesmeriser and the mesmerised.To all this the answer is, the thing called mesmerism is neither satanic nor medical, it is not the product of quackery or cheatery, but merely a natural agency,\u2014one of the properties ot man s nature, by which he is able to influence his fellow-man, and that, under proper control, is designed, we believe, to confer good on the human race.It is simply an electric fluid passing from one body to another,\u2014the stronger operating on the weaker, infusing into it a life and energy which it did not previously possess.There is in it neither mystery nor craft, beyond that which attaches itself to all the secrets of nature ; and, like all such secrets, the evils which are apprehended by many from mesmerism can arise, not from its legitimate but illegitimate application,\u2014in one word, from its abuse.Clairvoyance is the higher or more perfect stale of mesmeric life.Under its influence, the clairvoyant is capable of becoming acquaint ed with objects and doings, near and remote, and of reporting on the condition of men and things.It is that branch of mesmeric science which requires to be under the control of judicious persons, and one on which ignorant or amateur performers should not enter, nor should it be employed for purposes ol idle or impious cuiiousity.We had, a few evenings back, an opportunity of witnessing a most extraordinary case of clairvoyance.The subject of it was a young lady, a native of and resident in Calcutta.We doubt whether she has ever been many miles from Calcutta in her life, and certainly could have little if any knowledge of the scenes she described.During her clairvoyant state, she was asked to visit towns and places familiar to parties present.Her first journey was to Halifax, Nova Scotia.Here she saw clumps of trees and a wrecked vessel evidently at the entrance of the harbor.She next described the form of the harbor, which is peculiar, exceedingly narrow at the entrance, afterwards expanding ; in git she Baw three islands, on one a very pretty cottage, on another, what she called an upper-roomed house, but which, on her awakening, she described as a tower, tapering to the top.These things are actually prominent objects, we understand, in the harbor at Halifax.She was then asked to go to a particular street in Halifax, and give a description of the Baptist Chapel, which she did- It was, she said, of a grey color, and the win-flows square, with an arch on the top, and very neat.Her next trip was to Scarborough in Yorksh re.Her descriptions of this place were most extraordinary.She said, it is a most strange place.I never saw such a place ; it is all ups and downs\u2014 (it is very hilly)\u2014there are arches coming down into the sea\u2014(a suspension bridge, which has this appearence from the sea) \u2014and near to it a new and beautiful house\u2014(one recently erected in the gothic style.) On the cliff she said she saw a building, white\u2014(the barracks)\u2014and near it a flagstaff,\u2014 (which is the case) \u2014and something further on, whicli she could not tell what to call\u2014(it is a ruined castle ) The mesmeriser then asked her to go to the Arctic Seas in search of Sir J.Franklin.She said, in the first instance^ I see a shipwrecked vessel ; her name is the Regina.Again she was urged to the search, and said, I have found him ; I see a vessel imbedded in the ice.Sir J.Franklin is there ; or, at least, I see a gentleman ; he is not very tall or stout ; he looks haggard and thoughtful ; he has a telescope in his hand.Another gentleman is pacing the decks near him.The sailors are cutting the ship out of the ice with some kind of spades, I know not what to call [ them.The name of the ship I cannot see, she is I too much imbedded in the ice.Sir J.Franklin is \\ dressed in dark woollen clothes.He has on a fur \\ cap.I cannot see the color of his hair, the cap \\ hides it : I cannot hear them speak.Will Sir J.1 Franklin return to England ?she was asked.Yes t When?In September.Can you tell the day?1 No.Will it be at the beginning or middle or end j of the month ?About the middle, was the reply.At a second interview, three or four evenings afterwards, she was requested to revisit the Arctic regions, and tell the audience what she saw.She said, I see Sir J.Franklin again.How do you know it is hi n ?I am sure of it, I feel it is him.What is he doing?He is now sitting at a table, in the cabin, writing.He looks deeply thoughtful.Is there a fire in the cabin?No, how could the cabin be on fire?Is there a fire-place?Yes, a stove.What is burning on it,\u2014ice, or wood or coal?Ice! how could they burn ice ?coal is burning.She was then asked to go on deck, and tell what was to be seen.How many masts are there,\u2014six or seven?I see three.The middle one is broken.Again she was requested to visit the cabin, and tell what Sir J.Franklin was doing.He is now pacing backwards and forwards, evidently in great anxiety ; a sailor has just entered, and is communicating something very marvellous.How do you know it is marvellous?can you hear them speak?No; I know it by the expression of their countenances.Do you see any ship near?I see one at a distance with all sails set.Is she coming near to Sir J.Franklin\u2019s vessel?She is coming that way, but she may pass it.Can you see the name of this vessel?Yes.What is it?The Roger.Spell it, and be sure?I have done so, it is Roger.She was then asked to revisit Scarborough.On arriving there, she said, I see the grand bridge\u2014it is a beautiful place.On being asked to go into the High-street, and look up it, she said, I see a house built over a curious looking arch.(There is a house built over an ancient gateway at the head of the street.) Go through the arch, and pass on a little to the right, and tell what you see.I see (she replied) a new neat building.I cannot tell what it is.Go in, and tell us what it is.It is a new chapel.Is it finished?I think not.The pulpit is covered with canvass, and the seats are not finished ; there is no gallery.A new chapel is now in course of completion on this very spot.Other things of a similar nature were entered into ; but which it is not needful to detail.The most extraordinary part of the business is, that on awaking she had a perfect and even more distinct recollection of some things she had seen, than during her mesmeric slumber.The above information was elicited by questions put by the mesmeriser.The answers were given quite naturally, and with much composure, and evidently after an apparent survey of what she saw.She objected to undertake, the journies on the ground ol distance, and appeared more than once as if labouring under the pressure ot fatigue On awaking, she said to ourselves, What is this?Can you explain it ?I have seen places and things I never saw before.What is this ?Of the sincerity and integrity of the clairvoyant we have no doubt ; nor have we any doubt of what we saw and heard.PETER FLINN\u2019S LUCK.BY FALCONBRIDGE.In that beautiful, quiet city of parallel street, ¦weet butter and sweet women\u2014Philadelphia\u2014 there once did live a certain native of the Emerald Isle, called Peter Ffinn.His vocation was that of the most honorable, because of its usefulness to the commercial world\u2014driving a dray.Peter owned a very ancient and no wise spry horse, and an equally unstable dray, by means whereof he essayed, and by dint of great physical exertion, succeeded, in obtaining for his large and growing family a tolerable living.Stephen Girard lived and carried on his im» mense mercantile transactions at the time of which I write, and was o principal performer, in my little story.The one-eyed little Frenchman, the great pet of dame Fortune, was not a man of very wonderful developements of heart and soul, or sympathy in the misfortunes, the crosses or losses of his fellow beings ; but now and then, he was known, more through eccentricity than aught else, to perform some very creditable a.:d really magnificent acts of kindness and generosity towards those falling in his way.One day said he to Peter Flinn, whom he hod oft and for a long time employed in hauling goods from his large ships to his warehouses.*\tP-tair, I believe you have worked vairy hard'.*\tYea sir, an\u2019 be my soul I have\u2019, responded Peter.*\tVery long time ; you no save anything ?\u2019 ask** ed the merchant prince, the millionaire ! *\tBy my conscience, Misthur Ge-rad, it is not a ha\u2019 puth that I save at all ; the devil hieself might dance his hornpipes in my pockets ov a Monday morning, without disturbing a toe nail ov his fut \u2022gain the silver that\u2019s there.* \u2018Two, three, five, seven of de childien at home, \u2022h ?*\tFaix, and it\u2019s yerself that\u2019s guessed it exactly, Misthur Ge-rad ; I have seven as brave boys and gals as ever you clapped an eye upon, sir.\u2019 \u2022Ay yes, I see, I see.Vairy well, Petair, you shall have von chance prezently, by and by, directly, to do zomething bettaire zan drive de old horse and dray.\u2019 * Faix, Misthur Ge^rad, it\u2019s meself that\u2019s a saying it, as should not be saying it, p\u2019raps, but it\u2019s few men labour harder, nor longer for the bread, praties and hay that we ate, than meself and Barney, the old boss there ; and be the conscience, it would be a God-send that would put us, both meself and the poor ould baste, there, over all our ills and miseries,\u2019 said Peter.\u2018Ah, ha! Very well, Petair ; you carne into my counting house, by and by,\u2019 and the little old Frenchman, with his hands locked behind him, stalked off to his counting house, leaving the poor drayman considerably mystified, as to what the result of his conference was to be.\u2018Be dad !\u2019 says Peter to himself, \u2018maybe it\u2019s the old feller\u2019s whim to set me up in a shop ! or be gorry, to buy me a new dray and horse ! O ! be me conscience, there\u2019s no telling what the ould jintlernan may do when he takes the turn,\u2019 and thus soliloquising, after a respectful delay, Peter presented himself at the door of the millionaire's counting room ; and doffing his hat, in he walked.4 Petair, \u2019 said the merchant prince, 4 ze big Canton packet ship Mozart lay down at my wharf.\u2019 4 Yis sir.\u2019 \u2018 She have one grand cargo of tea,* continued the banker.4 Faix, she have.\u2019 *\tTo-morrow, Petair, ze whole cargo be put under de hammair, to be sold to ze highest bidder.\u2019 4 Yis,\u2019 Peter replies; still deeper in mystery as to what or how that could interest or concern him.4 Vairy well, Petair,\u2019 continued the baker, 4 tomorrow morning, when ze sale begin, be you dare\u2014ze tea be put up in two or tree lots, one of ze merchants begin to bid ; den you bid do next.\u2019 *\tMe ! Oh, be Gorra ! save your prisence, Mis* ter Ge-rad, would it be for the likes of Pether Flinn to be among de merchants, and bidding for a cargs of tea.It\u2019s mad entirely, hey\u2019d soy J was.\u2019 4 Nevair mind ; you bid on ze tea.When ze tea is knocked down, you take ze whole, zen you come to me, I fix \u2019em.Good morning, Petaire.' And stumbling and awkward with astonishment, Peter got out, and the rest of the day he went about, muttering to himself the entire strange and bewildering pan which he had to enact on the morrow at the grand tea sale.Next day, the merchants of the Quaker City assembled on one of Girard\u2019s quays, where the huge pile of chests of tea were ready for the auc* tioueer\u2019s hammer, and the bids of the merchants.It was a consignee\u2019s sale ; cash was to be raised in short metre, and the whole cargo was set up in three separate lots, half cash, and the rest at four months with approved endorsements.\u2018Now gentlemen,\u2019 said the auctioneer, on opening the sale, 4we put up eight hundred chests of Young Hyson Tea\u2014what do I hear for this Hyson tea, warranted all through as sample, or no sale ?How much do I hear ?\u2019 Starlit, gentlemen\u2014we shall not dwell long on this tea.Forty cents a pound, I hear bid ; only forty cents a pound,\u2014forty\u2014forty\u2014forty cents a pound only is bid ; two and a half did I hear ?\u2019 \u201c Yes, forty.two and a half I bid,\u201d said Peter Flinn, in a tone of voice that fairly startled some of the merchants.The auctioneer paused.\u2018You bid, sir ?\u2019 \u2018 Yes, it\u2019s me, go ahead.* \u2018 We are not selling a pound or a box ; but 800 chests !\u2019 \u2018 Be dad, and sure I know that sir ; go on with it.\u2019 The merchants snickered, and the auctioneer grinned, no more bids were made, and down came the tea, 800 chests.\u2018 The name, sir ?\u2019 4 Peter Flinn.' *\tWhere is your house, Flinn ?* 4 Me house ?\u2019 \u2018Yes, your place of business.' 4 Me house ?and faith, I have no house ; it's two rooms and a cellar that I have on Waihef street, and me place of business is round here on the wharf.\u2019 4 Your endorser\u2019s name, if you please.* \u2018 Stephen Ge-rad, sir !\u2019 This dubious declaration produced another stretch of the phizzes of the merchants, and in great doubt put up another lot of five hundred chests.Down it went to Peter Flinn ! And so likewise went the third.When the sale was concluded the merchants glided off, believing the auctioner was certainly a \u2018sold\u2019 man.But on presenting the notes and bills of Peter Flinn at the desk of Stephen Girard, the old fellow cashed at sight.The sales came to nearly $100,000\u2014the tea was much wanted in the market, and Peter got good bargains, and be.fore noon the next day received fifteen thousand dollars bonus for his bid on the cargo of tea.The cargo was soon transferred, Girard indemnified, and the poor drayman found himself in po-session of a snug liitle fortune in his fob.is the royal though tawny proprietor of a j medicine seems to be much in accordance with i- i\t,\u2022\t.\t_ ui-\ttvt:_ / the one highly recommended in 1832 by Dr.Ste- [6 rest, this n\u2014the very //'p}- POST OFFICE NOTICE.rglHE MAILS for ENGLAND vift the UND 1 TED STATES, will, UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE, be CLOSED at the Montreal Post Office, EVERY MONDAY AFTERNOON, at THREE o\u2019clock NEWSPAPERS must be posted before 12 o\u2019clock noon.General Post Office, Montreal, 7th June, 1850 .! 86 \u2022SHE M Off WEDNESDAY MORNING, SEPT.25, 1850.Bhitish and American Diplomacy.\u2014 There is just now a high game of diplomacy proceeding at Washington, in which the players are the American Minister for foreign affairs, and Sir Henry Lytton Bulwer.The prize for which they play is the control of the passage from the Atlantic to the Pacific ocean, that great Commercial scheme of three centuries and a half, by means of a Canal cut through the Isthmus which unites the Northern and Southern portions of this continent.We believe the time is gone by when any one nation can hope, or will desire entirely to exclude others from the benefits, which nature has bestowed upon the human family.Each people is finding out surely and rapidly, that it is bound to the rest, not merely by the sympathies of a common humanity; but by those material interests, which, so long as the commerce is mutual and voluntarily, cannot enrich one of the parties without simultaneously enriching the other.Yet when interests such as the trade of the three continents of Europe, Asia, and Africa are atstake,it is notsurprisingthatevery nation having a share in the traffic should be jealous of too great power in the hands of the other, and desirous of keeping in her own hands the largest share of influence.These are, doubtless, the views which still keep open the vexed question of the Nicaragua territory.This tract of country, according to the pretensions of the Government of Nicaragua, extends across a certain portion of the Isthmus, having a shore on each ocean ; and it became a point of very great interest so soon as it was ascertained to be the place for the canal between the oceans.British and American agents were set to work, each party trying to secure for his own Government and people the sovereignty, or if not the sovereignty, the virtual authority and power over the lands through which the cut must be made.The British possessed an ally in the person of a sovereign, who does not appear to rank very high in the scale of monarchs, and who has been nicknamed by the Yankees, by the somewhat irreverent style of Billy Bowlegs.All parties agree that he has a royal addiction to rum, and that the style of his dress is not exactly that of the coronation robes which decorate the wax statute of George the magnificent in Madame Tussaud\u2019s gallery\u2014 He approaches George in his taste for the gorgeous ; but necessity, or the climate, has induced him to blend this massive elegance, with the simplicity of the shirt collar and spur fashion,\u2014and his decrees do not date from \u201c our own Palace\u2019\u2019, but from beneath our umbrella.This worthy potentate, however, kingdom contiguous to the republic of Nicaragua.As he and his friend Lord Palmerston asserts, his title is good, almost for the whole Atlantic shore, of what the Nicaraguans regard as their undoubted territory ; and what is more important than the tract possesses the Port of St.Juan port which is absolutely necessary for the eastern entrance of the canal.By, and with the advice of his council, who doubtless love rum and hate republican encroachments, this King of Mosquito pot himself, his realm, and his subjects out of reach of harm from the Nicaraguans, by accepting the Protectorate of Victoria.Accordingly St.Juan has become something very much like a British port.The canal cannot be built without fighting John Bull, or getting his good-will.The Yankees, finding that the two royal houses pulled so well together, attempted to draw the cords equally tight between the two republics ; their democratic sister being about as large an affair in her way, as King Bowlegs in his.Nicaragua granted a very liberal charter to an American company to construct the canal ; but having done so, she lacked the power to put the speculators in possession of what she had grained.While protocols were flying about on the subject of the Mosquito territory, however, the British and A.merican Ministers set their heads to work, to arrange the future relations of the two nations, with respect to the trade of the canal.It was at last agreed, Nicaragua being a party to the pact, that the United Kingdom and the United States should have precisely the same privileges of traffic, and that all other nations who chose to come into the treaty should do so on the same terms, and each one be a joint guarantee of the whole.\u2014 Having made this agreement with Great Britain, the Americans proceeded with their négociations with Nicaragua, and were upon the point of completing their bargain, when Sir H.L.Bulwer interfered, and objected to some articles as inconsistent with the previous convention between the Government at Washington and that at London.The particular articles which he is said to object to are four : they guarantee the free passage of all American goods through the canals ; stipulate for the defence of the American company, who are to undertake the digging ; recognize the sovereignty of Nicaragua over the whole line through which the canal is to pass; declare that no other nation is to be admitted to these privileges except on the same terms ; and provide for the transfer of the rights of the present American Company to another if this should fail.Lord Palmerston apparently objects to the article relative to the transfer of the chartered rights of the company ; being desirous that they should not be exclusively in the hands of the Americans.He also protests against the recognition of the Nicaraguan Sovereignty, over the territory of Mosquito.On the other hand, the Americans say that their treaty with England only secured lo each nation equal commercial rights in the use of the canal when built, and left them at liberty to secure, or to hold as already secured, the entire property in the work.And they say further that as far as regards the territorial question they understood it was settled, and that San Juan was lo be evacuated by the British.Here is the knotty point in dispute, and no doubt it will cause much flow of ink and waste of words before it is settled.the one highly recommended in 1832 by yens, and which was the most productive of satisfactory results.Your\u2019s, &c., J.G.Bibaud, M.D., Prof.Anatomy Medical College, Montreal.Ijlontreal, March 31, 1849.The following Address was presented to the Lord Bishop of Montreal, by the Clergy of the District of Missisquoi :\u2014 To the Right Reverend Father in God, Francis, Lord Bishop of Montreal : May it Please Youb Lordship\u2014 We, the Clergy of the District of Missisquoi, beg leave to congratulate and welcome Your Lordship and Your Family on your safe arrival in your new Diocese of Montreal.We recognize, in the appointment of a Clergyman of your approved character and standing in our Mother Church of England, to fill this important new See, the pious and fostering care of the venerable Society for the Propagation of the Gospel, over their Plantations of the Church abroad, by sending a Bishop to the new Diocese of Montreal, who has made himself so well acquainted with the history, the state, and the wants of the Colonial Church of the Empire, as, we are assured from a previous knowledge of your studies and pursuits, Your Lordship has done.As we have always respected, honoured, loved and obeyed our late Diocesan, now the Lord Bishop of Quebec, as some of us did his Lordship\u2019s predecessors of blessed memory, so we hope and desire, by the assistance of Divine Grace, ever to entertain and cherish the same feelings toward Your Lordship, and cordially to strive together \u201cwith one mind, for the faith of the Gospel\u201d with our Bishop; to extend the knowledge of Divine Truth ; the Doctrines of the Church ; and to inculcate upon our people, the practice of Godliness, Righteousness, and Loyalty to our august Sovereign.We beg Your Lordship will have the goodness to convey our expression of Christian regard and welcome to Mrs.Fulford and Family, with our best wishes and prayers that they may long enjoy health and happiness in this, their adopted country.James Reid, Rector, St.Armand, (East,) Chairman D.M.A.James Jones, Secretary of the District.Thomas Johnson, Missionary, Abbotsford.Richard Whitwell, Rector, St.Armand, (West.)

her piano passages, 44 sotto voce,\u201d were inimitably sweet and graceful, and her shake perfection, far superior to anything I have heard before ; occasionally her voice was harsh in the 44 forte\u201d passages, and failed slightly once or twice.All these defects, I presume, arose more or less from the excitement caused by her 44 tremendous\u201d re-ception in this capital of the New World.Benedict\u2019s 44 Welcome to America\u201d is a poor affair both in music and in verse, and Miss Lind labored and strained very much to give it an effect which it was entirely unworthy of.Last night, the music was much better chosen for her parti* cular style, and she excelled in all.What pleased me best was 44 Quando Lasciai la Nor-mandte\u201d\u2014it was inexpressibly beautilul.Her execution and style in singing that lovely song can only be appreciated by those who hear it.I liked her \u2018\u2018Non paventar\u201d better than 44 Quir Voce.\u201d In one of her songs I thought she reached G in alt.She beats Persian! all hollow in taking the high notes, and the ease and dexterity with which she controls her voice in its upper register, are truly wonderful.Her ca-deuces are charming\u2014compositions in them* selves\u2014and a more exact intonation was never heard.What strikes an amateur is the extraor dinary facility and ease with which she sings everything, and the 44 diminuendo\u201d of her voice is unutterably tender and bewitching.Her school is her own, and it is idle to compare her with any one else.Although her voice is not so sympathetic, nor her manner so impassioned as those soul stirring qualities ws find in the most distinguished 44 Cantatrices,\u201d they yet exert an astonish, ing fascination, and we listen to her spell-bound.Her air and carriage are exceedingly artless, frank and winning, and without a particle of affectation.When she first appears on the stage, we feel convinced we see before us an honest and true woman, and we readily give her credit for the virtues attributed to her by all.She is not pretty, and yet she is a lovely woman\u2014such is the charm in her intelligent and soul-beaming eye.I went to hear her one of the incredulous, determined to weigh her capabilities in the exact balance of justice; now I am a believer.She sings more under inspiration, as it were, than any one I ever saw ; and she idenlfies herself, for the moment, with the subject and character of the music she interprets.She reminds me, when singing, greatly of some of those beautiful pictures I have seen of St.Cecilia\u2014the expression of her face and figure are quite equal to any of them On the stage she looks rather under medium size, her figure is, in the very slightest degree an gular, though her arm is sufficiently well rounded Her throat is the most muscular and flexible I ever saw, insomuch as to destroy all beauty of the neck.Notwithstanding, she is a very well-form ed woman, and the outlines of her figure well turned, there is not the least appearance ot voluptuousness about her.Nothing that excites\u2014an iceberg would warm to passion as much.She is perhaps the greatest living embodiment of one of the highest sensual accomplishments, and yet without its almost invariable accompanying characteristic a paradox, only met with once in a life time, in an age.I must add, that \u201cwhen herself,\u201d she sing without the least apparent effort, the longest and most intricate passages, and without the least distortion of feature.Her management of her breath cannot be surpassed.It is equal to that of Rubi-ni.In the most difficult and trying vocalization there is an excellent surety in her method, and we never for a moment imagine she cun fail.The enthusiasm regarding her augments, and will con tinue.Last night, Castle Garden was filled by 7000 to 8000 persons.The seats are numbered to 6000 and odd, not one was unoccupied, and besides, every available portion of standing room was covered.Since writing the foregoing, I have heard Miss Lind at her fourth concert, and it was a repetition of the preceding one in every respect.The same programme\u2014the same beautiful and faultless sing ing\u2014the same crowd-and the same enthusiasm, have not spoken of the quality of her voice, though extremely powerful, filling the vast area of Castle Garden, over the loudest din of an orchestra of 60 performers, it has not that full luscious quality we so much admire in Grisi and other Italian singers, and in mere beauty of tone, her voice has more than one rival, if not superior.It is surprisingly elastic, responding to the will, like an India-rubber ball to the pressure of the hand, and of a most melodious and distinct character, so that even in the piano passages, with full accompaniment of orchestra, not a note is lost Her lower tones are not remarkable, exceptin as constituting part of the scale of so wonderful a voice ; but the upper tones excel those of the sweetest flute in delicious sweetm\u2019ss and melody I have taken a few hurried minutes to give you an unbiassed and correct description of th greatest female celebrity of the age\u2014not except, ing the Queen\u2019s of the earth\u2014and though my account is rather disconnected and ill-framed, hope it will be intelligible.LOWER CA^A^A.The Canadien calls the attention of the citizens of Quebec to the notice of the City Council, in which that body declares its intention of putting the law strictly in force anainst the erection of wooden houses within the city limits.The same paper states that several whales have recently been captured in the Lower St.Lawrence.During the month of August, one of these animals 75 feet in length was harpooned at Kamouraska.Another caught on the 17th September, was 100 feet long.One of 38 feet was more recently shot at Isle aux Pommes.We have been requested to publish the following certificate :\u2014 PLANTAGENET WATERS.Sir,\u2014In compliance with your desire communicated to me for my opinion upon the use of the \u201cPlantagenet Waters,\u201d I do not hesitate to state that, according to their analysis by Mr.T.S.Hunt, Chemist of the Geological Commission, and by reason of their tonic, alternative, diuretic and purgative properties, which result from their constituent parts, they may be employed with advantage, according to the mode of application, in the treatment of rheumatism, gout, dyspepsia, affections of the liver, scrofula, dropsies, and in many other diseases, when employed in a proper manner.Such medicaments in my opinion, are by far more preferable to many others which crowd in upon us from ail quarters\u2014the composition, and consequently the properties of which are unknown\u2014and yet are unscrupulously recommended, without discernment, for the cure of all diseases.The testimony given in favor of these waters for the cure of cholera, deserves attention.This Harvest operations are almost completed in this neighbourhood.The weather has been all that could be desired for housing the crops in good condition.The yield, this year, in general, has been over an average.The wheat has given an unusually large return, and shows a beautiful sample.The other crops are equally good, both in quantity and quality.A field of corn belonging to Mr.P.Y.Hibbard, Long Point, is superior to anything of the kind we have ever seen ; it is expected to yield over eighty bushels an acre.We have heard but very few complaints from farmers, in this vicinity, of the potatoe disease, and trust no more will be heard of it.Place d\u2019Armes.\u2014We are glad at last to see that the Fountain, the erection of which has occupied nearly one year, is at last completed, and it is to be hoped that the Iron Railing will next receive the attention of the Road Committee.The condition of the Square for the last five years has been a disgrace to the city.Now that a large influx of strangers is expected during the Industrial Fair, some effort should be made to place the Square in something like respectable order.The contract for the Iron Railing has been for the past six months in the hands of the contractors, Messrs.Redmond & Co.Willi whom rest the delay ?We are requested by the Committee of the Montreal Temperance Society to state that, in order to prevent confusion at Mr.Gough\u2019s lectures, different colored tickets will be provided for e tch night, and that white tickets will only serve for to-night.Parties who have bought more than they require for tonight, may have them changed.The Tobacco Crop in Connecticut River Valley has been gathered in line condition, and more abundant titan ever.The Harttord Times says.Connecticut tobacco finds a ready sale now at three times its market va ue six years age.If the prices of last year are maintained, it will prove the most profitable crop that can be raised 'nL\" yield in Windsor this year is enormous.The UWIÏ23D STATES.The latest dates from Washington are to the 2lstinst.There was nothing of importance in Congress.The N.Y.Herald has the iollowing news from that city :\u2014 It is reported that at least half a dozen ships are ordered to get ready to sail to Cuba, and that six thousand men are enrolled for the new inva-ston ; but what is more important, we understand that Mr Webster is favorably inclined to enter into negotiations for the purchase of Cuba, by a quadruple treaty with Spain, Great Britain and France.The Sultan of Turkey having notified this cabinet of his readiness to send Kossuth and his companions, free of expense, to England, provided the United States will bring them from London to this country, we understand the matter will be taken up in executive session in a few days, with a view of authorizing the President to meet these overtures.In opposition to the California Senators, Stock-ton and Sacramento were reduced to ports of delivery, and Benicia, below, was made a port of entry.By this act, if passed, Benicia will become a formidable rival of San Francisco, and all the upper country will be made tributary to the Benicia district.Tt rather a curious proceeding ; but we shalbr ¦«y/i/jn from, commenting upon it at present, furtKV man saying that it migtn re'asonabfy be supposed it any place was entitled to that honor, it would be San Francisco.Case of Chaplin the Abolitionist\u2014Washington, Friday, Sept \u2014Finding it impossible to bring the magistrate to reasonable terms, Mr.Chaplin\u2019s Counsel withdrew his application and Mr.Chaplin was fully committed.The chance will probably be better with some Judge after the excitement cools a little.\u2014Tribune.Utica, Friday, Sept 20.\u2014Lord Elgin and suite, on their way home yesterday, paid a visit to the State Lunatic Asylum.\u2014lb.Jenny Lind.\u2014 Mias Lind has presented $500 to the New York Lying-in Institution.Rouse's Point Railway and Lake Bridge.\u2014Several papers published on the shores of Lake Champlain state, that the Committee of the New York Senate have not, as it was asserted, decided against the project for Bridging Lake Champlain.Vermont and Canada Road.\u2014 We are assured from reliable authority, that a large number of workmen are to be transferred immediately to Alburgh, to push forward the road across the longue, and to commence docking into the Lake opposite the Ogdensburgh and Rouse\u2019s Point road.Wo can discern, from our own office, timber piling up on the Vermont shore, for the purpose of docking out to the channel of the Lake, under the liberal charter of the Vermont Legislature, which also authorised the bridging of the Lake within its jurisdiction, from the east shore of Alburgh to Swanton.The bridging of this section the Lake is being pushed on with increased force and energy.And Mr Campbell, the best authority we know of, says the cars will be running from St.Albans to the east shore of Alburgh, in the month of November next.The completion ot this road is looked upon with intense interest.Bridge or no bridge, we .speak for a grand jubilee next July, on the glorious fourth, at Rouse\u2019s Point, when the St.Johns extension road meets the other two sections at the foot ot Lake Champlain navigation.\u2014Lake Champlain Beacon.44 The travelling public will rejoice to hear that there is even a prospect of opposition on Lake Champlain.It is now decidedly the most expensive route in the United States, and seems to have been managed with an eye single to getting the most money out of the traveller\u2019s pocket.\u2014Particular pains have been taken to convert the boats into boarding houses,\u2014the boat for this purpose remaining at Rouse\u2019s point some 6 or 8 hours, in order that the passengers may be compelled to breakfast between Port Kent and Burlington, by which the company pockets hall a dollar extra.Success to the opposition\u2014we trust imposition has had its day?\u201d\u2014Ogdensburgh Republican.St.John\u2019s and Rouse\u2019s Point Railway \u2014The Lake Champlain Beacon says that ground has been already broken on this line, at the Rouse\u2019s Point termination.Buildings in course of Erection in New York.\u2014New York Medical College $35,000 ;

but it may be considered his first attempt in dry legal phraseology, and in that respect, is entitled to considerable praise for its grammatical accuracy and legal precision, without reference to the facts of the case at all.The next paper in the batch is Mr, Forrest\u2019s reply to Willis.Its contents of course lose a great deal of the vigor on paper which they would acquire if Mr.Forrest were to deliver them in per»» son, in court or from the rostrum.The last paper consists of the rejoinder of Mr.Willis.All these papers relate to a poetical incident or passage at arms, which took place in Washington Square, between those chivalrous knights.The damages on the occasion, as estimated by Mr.Willis, the poet, for the injury which Mr.Forrest the tragedian, perpetrated on his person, are set down at the sum of ten thousand dollars, precisely ; but in order to explain the matter more accurately to the public, we have endeavoured to analyze the round sum and divide it into items.The following analysis may be considered a chemical analysis for conveying an understanding of these curious legal documents :\u2014 Edwin Forrest, Tragedian, To N.P.Willis, Poet,\tDr.Item\u2014Damage to his face and left\teye.$l,060\t49 Item\u2014Injury to the top of the nose.\t565\t56 Item\u2014Disturbing three ringlets.\t464\t45 Item\u2014Deranging the moustache.\t126\t75 Item\u2014-Dirt on the pantaloons.65U\t74 Item\u2014Bursting a glove.45\t67 Item\u2014Dr.ving a poem out of his head\u2014 copyright worth.1,000\t00 Item\u2014Hurting his feelings.6,086\t34 Total damages.$10,000\t00 The trial for these various items and aggravated damages will take place before a jury in a few weeks, and promises to be exceedingly interesting.In fact, we should not be surprised but that the polieom m guarding the doors of the court, il they have tact and skill, wi 1 matte as much money on the occasion as Barnum does of the Jenny Lind mania at Castle Garden.\u2014N.Y.Herald.CALIFORNIA.The Alta Californian, speaking of the late riots on the Sacramento, says :\u2014The issue is one be* tween the squatters or setilers, and the citizens, holders of property under the Sutter titles.The history of the affair, thus far, is briefly thus :\u2014 Large tracts of grounds, covering the city and vi\" cinftÿ of Sacramento, are held by grants from Captain Sutter, who.ciaims under his new Helvetia Spanish grant.The settlers hold, that Capt.Sutter\u2019s grant does not cover this territory ; that it belongs to the Government.They have moved on and erected buildings ; a suit for forcible entry and detainer is brought against them ; decided in the plaintiff\u2019s favor ; a writ of restittiuon issued ; the officer attempts to execute it ; is met by a body of armed squatters, who resist him ; this occurred Saturday, 10th ; prior to this date an appeal to the County Court had been made by the attorneys for the settlers, Judge Willis presiding, and the right of appeal denied.Exasperation of course was the effect upon the party seeking redress in the higher Court.Meetings were held and resolutions were passed lo resist the law.Nothing was done more by legal process from Saturday until yesterday, (Tuesday,) when some six or eight persons were arrested for rebellion or resisting the officers and the process of the Court on Saturday, and two, in default of bail, incarcerated in the prison brig.The Gold Mountain.\u2014From some editorial remarks in the News, of this city, as well as a few extracts from Eastern papers, it would seem that a report of a rich vein of gold ore in the Southern portion of this State, has been looked upon a as grand humbug.To put the people 44 at home\u201d right in this matter.I would ask a spare corner of the Aha.Many of our friends on the Atlantic, having too easily been gulled with Arabian N ights stories of this county, five tuns lumps of gold in the placers, &,c.seem to think it necessary now to appear very wise by believing nothing.This extreme is as wrong as the other.I am one of the party lately returned from that region.I saw the vein or rich spur, glittering with its obtrusive wealth, and filled, as sufficient tests have since proved, with hidden treasure.The story is a fact, the fact proved.Abundance of specimens brought by us are in this city, and have been seen and examined by hundreds of its citizens.From the South Fork.\u2014Mr.O\u2019Dwyer, who has just arrived from Culloma, informs us that on Fri\u201d day last three or four Chinese took out in that vicinity $300.Another man who was working on the north bank of the river, three quarters of a mile from Culloma, took out on Saturday forenoon three pounds of dust.The same man had previously taken out in the course of three days $1,900.Mr.O\u2019Dwyer states that he was a \u2018\u2018green hand,\u201d too.WEST INDIES- By the Philadelphia, we have received West India papers.The latest date is from Kingston, Jamaica, to the 13th inst.The news possesses considerable interest.Earl Dundonald, Admiral of the station, has been recalled, and will be succeeded by Vico Ad mirai Sir Charles Malcolm.The intended withdrawal of Sir Charles Grey is announced.The rumour of his retirement to the more lucrative position of Governor of Canada is believed to be correct.The Kingston Jour* nal says :\u2014\"That Sir Charles Grey expects himself to leave this Government for that of Canada seems implied from the fact, that all His Excellency\u2019s late conversations have been characterized by expressions such as these :\u2014\u2018Were I going to remain here\u2019, \u2018If I should remain here,
