Reprèseütiition of the City of Montreal, at tbe approaching General Election, i have thought it my duty, in the present crisis in public affairs, not to decline the invitation; although, previous to mv late vote against the Ministry on the Address,! had decided not again to take part in the Parliamentary business of the country.When I had the honour of'sdlicftlng'your suf-fra ere.at the 1 r s f., (freRfir»iï SiltoR, tinn T Wiri an jj, Administration I now oppose; and I oppose it not ouly because I think it unworthy oi'public.confidence from having failed to redeem its promises, but also because the Hon.Inspector General, the leading member of it, has notoriously been engaged in speculations, some of which were of a most questionable character, and has publicly avowed the printiple that he, holding the office of first Minister of the Crown, had a right to speculate in public Lands and Stocks on his own account, the same as any other individual.Against that doctrine I consider it necessary to protest, believing that it it be allowed to prevail, it will be subversive of morality in public men, and fraught with danger to the best interests of the public.Nor can the Administration, as a whole, be held free from blame from this cause ; for, by their silence upon the point, they have given it a tacit approval, for which they must be held responsible.By the.present General Election, tbe constituency of Alontreel, the Commercial Emporium and first city in British North America, will have an oppottunity of recording its verdict for or against the doctrine thus denounced.With regard to the commercial policy of the administration, I consider that Lower Canada has hitherto been neglected, and hex best interests sacrificed, for the purpose of promoting delusive schemes.For this pufpose the St.Lawrence has been kept closed against foreign vessels\u2014useless duties have been maintained, which have prevented the free transportation of American produce through our various channels of traffic; the use of Atnericatt vessels, in our coasting trade, has been denied to us, and the project ot a Canal, to connect the River St.Lawrence with Lake Champlain, has been treated with cold neglect, although it was manifestly required to make the St.Lawrence the successful rival of the Erie Canal ; for the great aud increasing business which passes between the Atlantic States, on the one side, and the Westeru States and Western Canada on the other.By these means, the commerce of the Lower Province has been prevented from expanding, in the same ratio as that of the Upper Province, and the object of the Administration, in thus sacrificing tne Lower Province has, apparently, been, to bring about a Treaty of Reciprocity with the United States, which, as lately signed, will scarcely benefit Lovter Cana da at all, however mu :h it may tend to piomote the prosperity of Western Canada; but which, after all the sacrifices imposed upon Lower Canada tor its attainment, has already, according to public report, filleu a dead letter in the Senate of the United Slates.Gentlemen, in my humble opinion, Canada can afford to play an independent pari in the development of her natural resources, and needs not to sue or cringe to any otner power fn- R-ci-[irooal Treaties.Let us throw open the St.Lawrence to the flags of all nations; lei us repeal all useless duties on American agricultural produce, and all injurious résilierions upon the Coasting Trade; let us have a canal to connect the St.Lawrence with Lake Champlain, wherever the great interests at stake manifestly require it to be located ; and let us promote Home Manufactures by admitting free of duty every taw material required for them.By these means, our country will prosper, and I will pledge myself to do my utmost to bring such changes about.I may also say a word or two about Harbour improvements.The question of Ducks is one which can lie in abeyance until time sbail show more clearly where the public interests require them to be lo-cated ; meantime, aa trade increases, tEe present Harbour can be extended ; and, as i said in November last,so soon as the By town Railwaycomes into existence for traffic, HocheJaga Bay must ba improved so as to make it a fit receptacle for the great aud growing trade of the Valley of the Ottawa._ These are my views, and as a Harbour Commissioner, I will do my utmost to see them carried out.I would also nse my utmost exertions to put a stop to ihe system which now crisis of alternating Parliaments in Upper and Lower Canada\u2014 G GENTLEMEN,\u2014Requested by a large numb 5 ot my political friends to accept their no initiation as a Candidate for the City of Montreal, at the approaching General Election, I have considered it my duty not to refuse the aeceptance of this mark of confidence on their part, and I would now, therefore, respectfully solicit your | suffrages.Belonging to the most progressive section of the Liberal party iu Lower Canada, to that party which has always héld principles the most conciliator}\u2019 towards effecting a union of citizens of all origins, the advocate of the widest extension of civil rights, political and religious, that party which, since taking a part in public affairs, has ever, with perseverance and energy, demanded those reforms, which it be«ieved best calculated to favor progress and to develop tbe resources of the country, my opinions upon the principal questions which now agitate the country, must be pretty well known to you.The Education of the people has become in Modern Societies one of the essential conditions of all soitd and durable progression.To labor in rendering education as general as possible, in bringing it within the reach of a)!, to spread healthy and useful knowledge over the entire surface of the country, by the instruction of the young, is to multiply the sources of the moral and material well-being of present and future generations; it is to contribute in elevating our population to that rank which it ought to occupy among those, by which it is surrounded, and it is tbe first duty of the legislature to occupy itself with a subject of such vast imp .rtance.In the opinion of all, the present system is of little avail It is necessary, then, to seek for a remedy bj which the necessary furce and vigour may be secured to surmount every obstacle and to render education popular and universal.To render the Legislative Council elective, as well as a great number of offices, the nominations for which are now vested in the Government, to diminish the patronage of lb Executive and its means of influence an i corruption, is to give to the legislative body and to the servants of the public, that independence, which they cannot possess under the system now in operation.The abolition of the S-igniorial Tenure, while assuring to the Seigniors a just indemnity ; the settlement of the question of the Clergy Réserves ; reciprocal free trade with Ihe United Sia es on just and reasonable principles ; the re-duction of duties on importations ; such are the principal measures which ought immediately to engage the attention of the Legislature.Another question of great importance ought, ere long, to come under the consideration of your representatives.Should the seat of government continue alternative,-or ought it to be fixed?The ambulatory system has already borne its natural fruits, and public opinion has irrevocably condemned it.In the discussions which will arise for fixing in a permanent manner the place of meeting of the legislature, the claims of Montreal may justly be adduced\u2014her central position and other advantages cannot be forgotten.Fre\u2019e trade with the United States, and.the free navigation of the St.Lawrence will still more increase the inconvenience now felt from the insufficiency of our harbour.Its enlargement will become a matter of absolute necessity, and! hope that; the surveys now being made, under the superintendence of men selected by the citizens and Corporation, will indicate in a satisfactory manner, the most proper means of providing for the wants of our increasing commerce, in accordance with the general interests of our citizens.Montreal is destined to become tbe entrepot of an immense commerce with the Western Countries, and every measure which tends to develop that commerce, thus furthering the prosperity of the city, will meet my most cordial support.The opportunity of connecting the waters of the St.Lawrence with those of Lake Champlain, at some point opposite or near the City of Montreal, by means of a Canal, ought naturally to receive the favorable attention of the public, under the new circumstances in which our commercial relations with the United States are about to be placed, but the interests of Montreal in vi« w of the general interests of the country, ought to weigh in the balance in determining, tbe locality.In soliciting your suffrages, it is scarcely n@.c^ssary for me to declare that I shall olace my- tained office, and the Seigniorial Tenure stilt remains unchanged, the question of the Clergy Reserves is still unsettled, we have no Elective Legislative Council, and little hope of obtaining one, the municipal system has not been ameliorated, education makes no progress from the want of teachers, and the law passed in 1851, for the establishment of a Normal School, remains unexecuted.The Constitution, which provides that a year shall never pass without a Session of the Legislature, the spirit of which is to secure a Session every year, has been interpreted by the present Ministry, in such a manner as only affords the country one Session of its Parliament in three years.A dissolution, untimely and arbitrary, has been made, without consideration of the urgency of certain measures, which the Assembly offered to pass.It is under these circumstances and with no other guarantee but tbe same promises that they made in 1851, that the administration appeals to the country from the condemnation pronounced against it by the Legislative Assembly.There requires nothing more to justify my want of confidence in that administration, but I feel that I should not have expressed my opinion upon one of the gravest of questions, if I did not explicitely repudiate the principle recently sent forth in the Assembly by tbe chief of the Cabinet, that a minister might speculate in the p tblic securities and in the public lands, like any other individual.The immoral tendencies of such doctrines could not fail to cover with such a disgrace as would inevitably reflect upon the country itself, men, who, forgetful of the duties of their high position, would descend to play the part of stock jobbers and place their own private interests above those of the public.Should these princinles meet with your approval aud should you place me in the honorable and distioguished position of representing in Parliament the first city in Canada, my most constant efforts will be directed towards the means of attaining those, advantages, which must result from their being reduced to practice.I have the honor, to be, Gentlemen, Your very obdt.servant, A.A.DORIDN.Montreal, 1st July, 1854.\t107 Montreal with the waters of .Lake.Cuamptain: and the early completion of

desire also to see the Clergy Reserves question speedily settled, and shall be prepared to support any measure which has for its object the setting at rest of this vexed question.With these views,

election, I venture to do soin the firm belief that those principles of liberal and progressive reform which 1 have uniformly.professed are shared by a large majority of my fellow citizens.My sentiments are known to be in unison with those of the more progressive liberal party, which, ignoring all distinctions founded on differences of origin or of creed, seeks to ameliorate our institutions, purify our administrative sjStem, and diminish the power and patronage of the Executive by tbe widest application of the elective principle.I trust the part I have taken in the various questions of public policy, which have from time to time engaged your attention, renders other than a general statement of my political views unnecessary, but that my position on the questions now agitating the public mind, may be fairly before you, I propose, briefly, to advert to the most prominent of them.I am distinctly opposed to the present Administration; and especially do I condemn the abrupt termination of tbe recent session of Parliament, without even the preliminary action Ministers were pledged to take on the questions of the Seigniorial Tenure and tbe Clergy Reserves, without passing a measure to give effect on our part to the proposed Reciprocity arrangement, thus placing in imminent jeopardy the fruits ot years of anxious negotiations, nor one to bring into operation tbe new Franchisa law, which extends the right of suffrage to a numerous class of our fellow countrymen, now deprived of all vrrice in the affairs of the country ; and, above all, without any explanation or investigation of charges of the gravest nature, involving conduct, on the part of ministers, which can only be defended on grounds subversive of all purity in our public men.1 shall advocate the immediate and total abolition of tbe «Seigniorial Tenure, having respect to the just rights of all classes affected.Believing that the reservation hf a large portion of the lands of the Province for the endowment of religion has been the fruitful source of Givil and Religious discord, which will only terminate with the removal of the cause, I shall advocate the immediate and absolute secularization of the Clergy Reserves.L will support any judicious proposition for rendering tbe Legislative Council elective.I am opposed to tbe present system of alternate parliaments, and believing that all the considerations which prompted the selection of Montreal as the permanent seat of Government in 1843 exist with equal, if not superior, force now, I shall strive to restore to our city the position of which she was weakly and unjustly deprived.I would support, or if necessary propose, a law providing for tbe meeting of parliament at fixed periods.I desire to see onr canal system completed by the early constrgetion ef a ship canal to connect GENTLEMEN,\u2014I have the honor of again soliciting your suffrages as a Candidate for the representation of'this City, and I am the more prompted to request your support from the influential requisition addressed to me.At the prorogation of tbe Legislature ip June, 1853, it was tbe general assurance, conformably with the address of tbe Assembly supported by the Ministers themselves, and not objected to by the Governor-General that the next annual meeting of Parliament should take place in February following, when ot j- cts of vital imp jrtance to the peace and prosperity of the country, including tie abolition of the Feudal Tenure, and the seulement of the Clergy R-serves, would he submitted for final adjustment by the Legislature.These expectations were defeated tiy the delay to assemble Parliament until the latest day nl-lowed by law, aud the Administration, immediately after the commencement of the session, not only openly intimated their opposeiu(u to «he free legislation of the A«sera>Jy, but, after the mockery ot a session ot lour dajs tf active duration, assumed the responsibility of aitvi.-mg a dissolution and a new election at the m d« inconvenient season of the year.No satisinctory reasons have been ofiVred for this dissolution, after oui} about one- hud of the COastlti|iional existence of the Assembly, mid iheir constant suppo/t of ihe Minishy dining inai period.Necessit} offers no juslitiua Ion fur Hus ill-EidVi-ed measure and no pretext can be discovered, except the personal convenience of Ministers, and .then-desire to retain Office, with its opportunities and emoluments.' If mure were wanting to vindicate a decided opposition to the present Arimiuistiatii;n, ii would be found in the assertion, made in his place iu Parliament by the Chief Minister of the'Ci-own, and tin.contradicted by his colleagues, of the tight ot the members of the Government to speculate in the public funds and properly, and in bi= attempt thereby to excuse his own participation in the purchase of public lands.Under the it fluence of such a privilege, the integrity of an Administration must be measured by tbe.occasions uuder its control for tbe disposal of the public property or funds; and jobbing and corruption would, at last, become the chiet objects for acceptance of Office.My public conduct as a Member of Parliament as well previous to,as durmg my connection with the representation of this city, is before jjt»u for your judgment, but at this crisis, it is proper that I should- briefly state my views upon some of the great interests that affect tbe Province.I shall continue to give my best efforts for tbe promotion of à sound education throughout the land ; for the immediate abolition of tbe feudal tenure in.Lower Canada with a fair indemnity; for the increase of trade generally iu the Province for tbe reduction of duties on tbe nec ssa-ries of life for popular comfort, and upon all materials which enter into and supply our manufactures, and for their promotion and encouragement; for tbe construction of a water communication below or opposite to the city, to unite the St Lawrence and Lake Champlain, and for the removal of all impediments which prevent the Province and its waters from becoming tile high road andnla.ee of transit far intercourse wkh^T.e, rapidly mcreasunrW\"-*-\t'\t- - ¦ timtnt.\t\u201e IWRL____J harmony among all classes of ««y roliôw-subjects, the necessity can neither be concealed nor denied for just, early and final legislation on the subject of the Clergy Reserves: whilst the application of tbe elective principle, if d mande 1 by the voice of the country, to the composition of the Legislative Council, in place of the present nomination system, should be adapted io the situation and wants of the Province upon a basis afforded by the favorable experience of a similar institution in the United States, instead of the theoretical models of Continental European Governments.Adverting to a subject which has become of paramount importance to Canada, it is my.conviction that no minor consideration shoujd be permitted to interfere with the prosecution of the great lines of Railway communication now in progress.At the same time, it must uè evident that the present system of direction by Members of the Administration is altogether reprehensible and that a proper supervision is required, which cau only be secured from an independent aud responsible Board into whose hands the Provincial interests in the advance and application of the public funds, and in tbe steady promotion of the important works themselves, may be safely and unhesitatingly entrusted.Through their instrumentality and exertions the establishment of works in the Province for the manufacture of the Road-plant, and the profit accruing therefrom might be secured for ourselves instead of oeing applied to build up extensive establishments abroad at the expense of large amounts of\" the Provincial Funds.My opposition to the costly and objectionable system ot alternate Parliaments in eittier section of the Province, and my support ofa fixed and permanent seat for the Legislature, shall be continued ; and in the selection of a location, the admitted claims of Montreal shatl receive my best and most strénuous exertions.With riterence to tbe City itself, every measure that will foster its commercial interests, promote its embellishment and saluorit}, and advance its improvement and prosperity generaliy, wtil find me its willing advocate.1 shall ouly add, that I shall endeavour, to the best of m} anility, to mem your approbation, if I sha 1 again be returned as oue of your Representatives.I have the honor to be, Gentlemen, Your obdt servt., V\\.aaDGLEY.Montreal, July 8, 1854.\ti ts Hi fee aïd laram Eticta OF Tnhi COUNTY OF CHATEAGGÜAY.GENTLEMEN,\u2014Solicited by a great number among you to tender my set vices, at ihe approaching Election, to represent you iu Parliament, I reluctantly submit to your good will, well aware, as I am, of my unfitness to fulfill such an honorable and responsible charge.1 have only to offer you, as a guarantee, my activity aud perseverance for the progress ol the Luuntry.Should the majority of the County select me to be their Representative, it shall be my duty to support all measures tending to the advancement of the County, and its agricultural improvements.I shall give my support to the passing of a law for the regulation of roads, of which the County is much iu need of, and one for amending the present School Jaw, which does not work as well as it should.The Abolition of the Seigniorial Tenure shall be tne of the first measures that I shall ask for ;

but if it desire to resume any endowment, which it has created, it has a right, which cannot be gainsaid.It is a right arising almost out of the necessity of things, and history would show that there is hardly a State in modern Europe, which has not acted on this law.The application of all this to the Clergy Reserves, will be seen at once.If George the 3rd had possessed the lands which he gave as private property, there are still imaginable\u2014we do not say probable\u2014circumstances, in which, according to the ideas of the greatest organ of property and interests in the world, it would become the duty of the State to ask\u2014What would the King do now, if he saw the changes that have taken place ?Still more, then, is it lawful for the State, of which the King was the mere impersonation, or agent, to ask itself\u2014What will I do, now that I see around me circumstances, which at the time of the endowment no man could have dreamed of?TUESDAY MORNING, JULY 25, 1854.XJT Notice.\u2014No carrier in the employment of the proprietors of the Montreal Herald is allowed to sell papers\u2014the public are therefore warned against purchasing papers on the streets.THE ELECTION.We class as opposition members all who voted in the majority on Mr.Sicotte\u2019s motion last session ;

In justice to, we sincerely believe\u2014politics aside\u2014a very worthy fellow and, we are far from sorry to add, a really deserving holder of \u201c a lucrative public office,\u201d we publish the following letter.Ah ! Mat, Mat, you had not even read the Herald till some two or three days after your return to Quebec, eh i What a slow reader you must be entirely ! But its no matter : only \u201c the next time\u201d bear in mind that a candidate for Parliament is a personal and the Editor of a newspaper impersonal entity, and don\u2019t for the life of ye, forget that Scottish is the word, and not Scotch\u2014bear these important facts in mind, and who knows what may happen\u2014\u201c the next time\u201d :\u2014 To the Editor of The Pilot.Quebec, July 20, 1854.Sre,\u2014Will you kindly allow me to state, for the information of the Herald, that the \u201c Communicated\u201d article which lately appeared in the Pilot, and in which some circumstances connected with my recent visit to Montreal are referred to rather as a text than otherwise, was neither written by me nor with my privity.Had I noticed the insolence of the Herald, it would have been altogether in different terms; and I certainly would not have omitted to allude to the consistency of such Liberals, par excellence, as the Editors ot the Herald, not only denying but ridiculing the right of a man to resign a lucrative public office, and present himself for the acceptance or rejection of a constituency to which he was well known, and from many members of which he had received encouraging and flattering assurances of success.Such opposition well becomes a man who, from having incurred the odium of being a \u201c fossilated Scotch Tory,\" has become the veriest champion of the vilest liberalism of modem times, even that of a Maz-zini\u2014of a Gavazzi ! Allow me further to advise the Editor of the Herald, that when he felicitates himself upon his impertinent remarks having \u201c entirely, and most gratifyingly, answered his expectations,\u201d he does so upon wrong data.; so far from his views having any influence upon my course in Montreal, it is a fact that I had not even read them till some two or three days after my return to Quebec.The determination I came to was in no way influenced by fear of the Herald or its party, but was based upon reasons not at all, as I believe, discreditable to me, or my friends, and which may not exist \u201c the next time.\u201d I am, Sir, your obedient servant, Matthew Ryan.The Choleba fob two 'Weeks.\u2014The following is a comparison of interments and of cholera interments for the last two

yet been received.It was then moved by Councillor Campbell, seconded by Alderman Whitlaw, that Moses Judah Hays be appointed Chief of Police.Moved in amendment by Councillor Ricard, seconded by Councillor Coursol, that the applications just read be deferred till next meeting.Councillor Coursol spoke in favor of the amendment.He said it would be an injustice to the gentlemen who had made application, in answer to the last advertisement, to pass them over now without consideration.Councillor Campbell should have a little patience and see justice done to all parties.He must not expect to manage matters in this Council in the same way as he manages his paper : if there were no justice or consistency in the columns of the Pilot, he (Mr.C.) should do justice in the Council.Messrs.Homier and Day then made some remarks, after which Mr.Coursol rose to demand an explanation from Mr.Day for observations that gentleman had made.Councillor Thompson called Councillor Coursai to order, as he had spoken several times already on the subject.Amid the noise, Councillor Coursol said he was not pledged to vote for any man, and that was more than some gentlemen could say

acquainted with the English writers of the beginning of the last century will remember that the merchant par excellence of those days was the \u201c Turkey Merchant.\u201d It was, we think, one of this class, named Mico, '-\u2018an pirates \"left «7 l-\tboen caPturedby Afri' of money, lue -Tls death a consioer\u2019iblo sum stantly applied to the redemption of Christian slaves in the hands of the Algerines.As time wore on, however, the Christian powers took a more effectual step for checking Christian slavery in Africa than the mere annual redemption of & lew of the victims of the long-endured piracy.Successive chastisements by the English, Americans and French, completely put an end to the ro-Tings of the corsairs.Mico\u2019s charity, then, had no longer a legitimate object\u2014there were no more slaves to redeem.For some time the managers of the fund contrived to make a private good thing out of the public charity ; but at length the matter was brought before the Court of Chancery, which, after some consideration, directed that the money should be employed in some other way for public benefit\u2014at the moment we forget what.This would seem to be very simple, and very natural ; yet, if the doctrine which we sometimes hear about public endowments possesses any real strength, there was here a \u201c nefarious scheme,\u201d a \u201c spoliation and jobbery.\u201d Why might not the Algerines have alleged that they possessed a vested right in the yearly revenues of the Mico charity ?The whole of the money, by the will of the founder, was to go to them, and they were quite ready still to render any service in their power, in the way pointed out by his testament; but the answer is very evident.Although the Algerines were to be the recipients of the money, their interests were not those which the testator sought to secure.Now there are many points of difference between this case and that of an endowment by the State, but in one point the two cases are precisely alike.When the State endows a college, a hospital, a school, or a class of men of any profession, for the purpose of having certain services performed, it is not the interest of the corporate body nor of the profession that is secured, but the good of the people.The case of the Algerines is one of those extraordinary ones by which we test a principle, and as a matter of principle endowed bodies, such as we speak of, hold just the same relation to their endowments as the Algerines did to the Mico charity.The State does not desire to give money, but medical attendance, schooling, religious instruction and so forth, and the endowed body does not become in any proper sense, the proprietors of the endowment, but the purveyors to the people of that which the State gives its money to purchase for them.In dealing with endowments created by individuals, there is one essential element in Which they differ from those created by the State.A testament has no force ao long as the testator liveth, but bis death puts such a seal and ratification on his last will, since he cannot change it, that we are reduced, upon the ordinary rules of the disposition ot property, to take that as a continuous will, except in very extreme cases, where to do so would be an absurdity.Nevertheless, there are plenty of cases, not so extreme as the cessation of the objects of the charity, in whi^h Courts have and will again interfere, to carry out the spirit in defiance of the letter of the testament.We have before as just such a case in the London papers brought by the last mail, from which we learn that Dulwich College, founded in the reign of James the 1st, and possessed of an endowment, which,by the increase of property, has now become worth £13,000 a year, still follows out what are called the founder\u2019s intentions, by maintaining m corporate body of some six persons to educate, poorly, twelve boys.The Times, certainly not at all likely to advocate any course destructive of vested interests, taking this ease for its text, approaches the general question, and says .\u201c It is high time we should arrive at a definite (understanding on the confessedly delicate question of dealing with trusts for public purposes, and we know not what better understanding we ¦can come to than that the Legislature should hold itself perpetual visitor, and in that capacity should do, under certain restrictions, whatever it is satisfied the founder would now do.Ibe visitor is but the shade of the founder, and the Legislature may be called the visitor-general ot -all charitable foundations.Now, what would Alleyn do?\u201d The Times does not fora moment Imagine that the corporation of instructors are to be considered, bat asks what would Alleyn do if he were alive, and suggests that iu all eases the Legislature should assume the duty of diverting property, if necessary, from the mere verbal directions of the will, to make its employment accord Distuebance on Friday Evening.\u2014We copy from the Moniteur the following account of a disturbance which took place in the Quebec Suburbs on Friday evening, at a meeting of the friends of Messrs.Bristow, Beaudry and Badgley :\u2014 \u201c On Friday evening a scene of violence, much to he regretted, took place at a meeting in the Quebec Suburbs.Some turbulent persons began a tumult, which was followed by a sort of fight, in which two or three persons were wounded, though, happily, not dangerously.The disturbers then, having encountered Mr.J.B.Beaudry, proceeded to acts of personal brutality, which it is hard to conceive possible.We are not acquainted with the names of the instigators of aa\u2014ç,-,\tAcùiA, in Bucietj', xney merit the public disapprobation, and for our parts we call for the utmost severity of the law to be exercised upon them.In a country like ours, where each enjoys the privilege of speaking his mind, is it not disgraceful, that any should be deprived of this liberty, by recurrence to those odious courses which civilized nations abhor ?We have heard that there are some who seek to throw upon our party, which vtas in sufficiently large numbers at the meeting, the responsibility of what took place.But besides the fact that the men of our party are not in the habit of proceeding to violence, nor of becoming the aggressors, we can say, from the evidence, even of par-tizans of Messrs.Bristow and Beaudry, that they conducted themselves in a peaceable manner, and that the affair which we condemn, with all our power, did not take place till a certain number of persons came to the meeting crying\u2018Down with the Rouges.\u2019 This created some excitement in the meeting, and caused about fifteen of the most exciteable to proceed to those acts of violence which have disturbed, we regret to say, the proceedings of a meeting of electors, who had the right to meet where they were.\u201d The late Fire in Quebec\u2014Caution.\u2014We learn that over a dozen first-class houses were destroyed by the fire in the St.Roch\u2019s suburbs of Quebec, on the 19th instant, involving a loss, in about equal proportions, of from £5,000 to £6,000, to the Insurance Offices.This great destruction of property and jeopardizing of lives we also learn, was caused by some thoughtless school-boys throwing fire-eraekers, some of which fell iu a hay-loft attached to Mr.Gaspard Gar-neau\u2019s house, where the fire was first discovered.We are, not aware whether we have any city bye-law prohibiting and punishing this most dangerous practice, but from the wanton indulgence in it, on a recent occasion, we take it for granted there is not.We trust the disastrous result of this silly and dangerous \u2022practice, in our sister city, will not be lost upon our City Fathers ; and that no time will be lost in passing such a law as may, at all events, secure us from a danger which should not be permitted to exist in any community of reasonable and prudent men.[ADVERTISEMENT.] The elections are now coming on, and the Candidates for Parliamentary honors are in the field pouring forth from their full horns streams of promises of what great things they will do for the dear people if those dear people will return them to Parliament ! Secularization of the Clergy Reserves, or settlement of the question respecting them in some way, no matter how or for what purpose, and the promoting of soifnd education, constitute the substance of all the promises.Yes ; secularization, another word for that of robbipg God, and settlement, a softer wqrd for doing the sama tljing, within the compass of doing the one or the other, as expediency or popularity may dictate, without regard to conscience or duty.Very few, indeed, seem to stand for the right, or have the least idea to contend for the truth that these lauds were devoted to the maintenance of true religion and divine worship, by both King and Parliament in the years 179Î and 1840.But such solemn Acts of Kings and Parliament are now to be trampled under foot as waste paper, and nothing can bp heard but the hoarse cry of secularization, spoliation and sacrilege.As the Saviour of the world had no human advocate when he was arraigned before the Roman Procurator of Judea, so the legal vested rights of the Church of God have scarcely an advocate in our Parliament.But, as then, when the Saviour of the world stood at the bar of an unjust judge, without a human defender of his innocenee, God witnessed against his enemies by a \u201c darkness over all the land unto the ninth hour by an earthquake that rent the rocks and the massive walls of the Temple frojn top to the bottom,\u201d and by the opening of the graves out of which sprang the dead to testify against the perpetrators of the fearful deed ; so the same God, who is still jealous of bis own honour, has already appeared to witness against the robbers of things that have been cast into the Treasury of his temple by fires, which consumed their dens one after another within the period of six months.Iu 1849, they began to rob honest men to pay rebels, and were punished by men on the spot, and had to escape for their lives like rats and cats from the devouring flame.In the last burnings of their dens, it does not appear that the agency of man was in the affair at all.God seems to have taken the matter into his own bauds against the men proclaiming on the house tops, their determination to secularize .sacred things, and said \u201c vengeance is mine.\u201d Yet, the robbers have not .taken warning, so as to repent and amend their ways, but coutinue to harden their necks until same more .terrible judgment shall overtake them.The judgments .upon Pharaoh increased in severity until they reached a climax.Let these robbers know that there is still a God that governs the world, for though the political creed is, that religion has nothing to do with politics, it is, for all that, true, that the unrighteous politioiau shall no more inherit the kingdom of heaven, than the unrighteous robber.Let the unrighteous politician then tremble! There is a day of reckoning sure to come.Scriptueal Rights of the Members of Christ\u2019s Visible Church.\u2014We have received a copy of this pamphlet, from the pen of Dr.Ryerson, Chief Superintendent of Education in Upper Canada, in which he states the reason of his resignation of office in the Wesleyan Methodist Church.Summer Trips.\u2014We are glad to find that the very agreeable little voyages set on foot by the St.Lawrence and Champlain Railway Company are fully appreciated by the public.During the late heats many a poor fellow, worn out by the continued languor produced by an atmosphere with the thermometer ranging from 90 ° to 120 ° has recruited himself, so as to retire to rest in comfort, by atrip on board the Iron Duke below the current and back again.They may continue to do so all this week.DeBow\u2019s Review : New Orleans.\u2014We have received the July and August numbers of this aha dgrichltural interests of the south, from Mr.Dawson, Place d\u2019Armes.Judging from their tables of contents, these numbers will be found full of interest to the merchant, manufacturer and capitalist.The Colonel.\u2014The Granby Advocate says that Col.Gugy is to oppose J.M.Ferres, in Missisquoi East Riding.BYE-LAWS.The next order being for the first, second and third reading of a Bye-Law for the establishment of a Board of Health, and it being found that only 14 members were present\u2014it requiring two-thirds to pass a Bye-Law.Councillor Day rose and said it was a shame, that out of the twenty-seven members, only fourteen could be got together.He hoped that the papers would take notice of this, that the public might know what kind of representatives they had.The principal object in calling this meeting to-day, had been for the purpose of passing this Bye-Law, and here we have only 14 members present.Such persons were not fit to represent the city, WOODEN BUILDINGS.A Report was read from the Fire Committee on numerous petitions to surround wooden buildings with brick.The Committee could not recommend that the prayer of petitioners be allowed.The Bye-Law prohibiting the constrction of wooden buildings within the city limits, was passed two years ago, and ample time bad since been afforded to all parties intending to build to provide themselvs with suitable materials.That by means of applications, such as these before the Committee, both the letter and spirit of the law have been, in many instances, succesfully evaded.The Committee therefore recommend that neither the accompanying nor any similar petitions for delay, in reference to the said Bye-Law, or having for object to suspend or set aside any of its provisions, be entertained by the Council.Report adopted after some explanations, in which the Chairman of the Fire Committee stated that all parties, both rich and poor, were to be placed on the same footing.Moved by Alderman Homier, seconded by Councillor Ricard, that the sum of £50 be appropriated for the purpose of purchasing new pants for the Police.Carried.Moved by Councillor Day, seconded by Councillor Ricard, that the stones and other rubbish now encumbering Jacques Cartier Square be removed, and that it be graded and levelled, and enclosed with chains, to protect and separate it from the footpaths.Also, that as soon as practicable,;it be planted with trees, by way of em-belishment.This motion gave rise to a long rambling discussion\u2014some members thinking it would be better to erect a gram market on the Square as had been proposed some time ago.Others thought it should be embellished in the way proposed by the motion, and on the suggestion of Councillor Coursol, £250 was named as the sum likely to accomplish this purpose.Councillor McGrath accused members of wasting the funds of the city in this way, while so much remained to be done in'his Ward, where there were pools of stagnant water throwing out au effluvia which had carried off many of his neighbors.He was not against embellishments, but he thought matters of more importance should not be overlooked.Several others spoke, and amongst the rest Councillor McCambridge, who gave it as his opinion that the St.Ann\u2019s Ward had not been neglected, and he felt satisfied, as one of its representatives that it had received its full share of money for improvements.The motion was finally carried :\u2014Yeas, 8 ; Nays, 3.His Worship the Mayor drew the attention of the Road Committee to the way in which the streets were broken up.At the present time it was a source of great inconvenience and annoyance to all parties, more especially medical men, who were called at all hours, night and day, to attend the sick, and whose time was precious.Owing to the way the streets were broken up and blockaded, these gentlemen had to go roundabout ways to arrive at their destination, thus causing delay, when every moment lost by them was of vital importance.He hoped, if it were necessary to proceed with these improvements at present, that as little inconvenience as possible would be entailed on the citizens.\t.c ueSby in completing the repairs in the streets had been caused by the excessive heat of the weather, when it was impossible to get men to stand out under the scorching rays of the sun\u2014at a time, too, when there was so much alarm felt on account of the prevailing epidemic.The remaining orders of the day were then postponed, and the Council adjourned for want of a quorum.\u2014Sun.Along the line of the storm, the crops were laid and the harvesting of them will be more difficult but the wheat was too near ripe to suffer much damage otherwise by the storm.The Spring crops promise much better than last year, when they were very light ; and are likely to be as good as iu an average of years.There is a large quantitv of spring wheat growing this year ; the high prices that prevailed having proved so great a temptation to farmers to put iu as much wheat as possible.This crop, more backward of course than Fall wheat, is likely to turn out well.Potatoes look well ; though the value of the crop tas yet to be determined by the weather between this and the time for taking them out of the ground.Last year, at this time, the potatoe crop did not promise badly, but it afterwards became a total failure.We may mention en passant, that there have been scarcely any old potatoes in this market for a week past ; on several days there have been none at all ; and although new ones have been procurable, they are not deemed desirable or safe food, owing to their unripeness at this season.\u2014 Of the fruit crop we are not able to give any very flattering account.So far as we can learn, the state of the crop does not promise any abundant yield in this neighbourhood.Private letters from the old Niagara district state the wheat crop is not more than half an average in that locality; and that the hay crop is still worse.Lambton Election.\u2014To show the absurdity of the ministerial boasting about the signatures to Mr.Cameron\u2019s requisition, we may mention that Mr.Brown\u2019s requisition was signed by six hundred and seventy-two Electors of the county ?Mr.Cameron\u2019s requisition had only between three and four hundred signatures, and the names were not published, as Mr.Brown\u2019s have been, to let the fact be ascertained whether they were electors or not.Mr.Brown was called out by a large majority of the electors of the county, and many conservatives besides who would not sign his requisition, will, doubtless vote for him in preference to the Coon.BY TIOIiK«MAPM.the LOWER CANADA.CORPORATION PROCEEDINGS.Friday Afternoon, July 21, 1854.Present :\u2014His Worship the Mayor in the Chair; Aldermen Leclaire, Trudeau, Whitlaw, Homier, Bronsdon ; Councillors Thompson, McGrath, Campbell, Adams, Coursol, Valois, McCambridge, Ricard and Day.Before taking up the orders of the day, His Worship the Mayor made some remarks regarding the prevailing epidemic.He stated he bad pleasure in informihg the Council that the disease had been almost wholly confined to localities inhabited by the poorest classes.A few influential citizens bad been cut off, it was true, but as a general thing, the victims had been of intemperate habits, or otherwise careless in the matter of diet.The Health Committee had been very zealous, and had done all that was in their power to mitigate the virulence of the disease.It was liis opinion that the worst was past\u2014the cases were not so numerous, apd the disease yielded to medical treatment.His Worship then alluded to the coming election, and hoped it would be carried on without any of those disgraceful scenes of violence which had characterised former elections in the city.Anxiety, excitement and intemperance predisposed to cholera ; he therefore hoped things would be managed in such a way that the peace of the city would not be disturbed.It would be a stigma on the city, if during such a calamity, as we were now visited with, any breach of the peace should take place.He read a document agreed to at a meeting of gentlemen acting on behalf of Messrs.Young, Holton, Dorion, and Badgley, four of the candidates for the honor of representing the city in Pajdiament.This document stated in effect that th,e friends of the gentlemen named had determined to use every means in their power to preserve the peace at the coming ejection ; that they would discountenance violence of any kind, and would neither open nor tolerate the opening of houses ef entertainment during the days of polling.Representatives had been invited on behalf of Messrs, Bristow and Beaudry, to co-operate with the above, but none had attended.A letter was read from Mr.Sheriff Boston, the Returning Officer, intimating that a meeting of magistrates would be held on Saturday morning, to concert measures for preserving the peace of the city, at which he invited the attendance of His Worship and the members of the City Council.Some remarks were here made by Councillor Coursol, asking if the Police were to be placed, under the command of the Police Magistrate, or whether they would be under the orders of the Committee of Police.Iu the former case, he, as chairman of that committee, would take no action in the matter ; but if the latter, he would consider it bis duty to take an active part in the preservation of the peace.He thought the police should be under the orders of the Police Committee on this as on all other occasions.His Worship expressed himself to the same efect.The Police Magistrate he supposed would have the command of the Water Police or Special Constables, if |t were found necessary to swear in such a body, but t)je City Police would yeruain under its proper head.He graved the attendance of as many members of the City Conn-.cil as could make it convenient at the meeting of magistrates tp-morrojy morning, when these maiteys could be satisfactorily arranged.A letter was read from Messrs.Retjiune and Dunkin, solicitors for Mr.Ponegani, to have the name of the Corporation to sue parties who have put up a construction in Capital Street.Referred.A petition was received from V.R.Lafontaine, for the office of Public Crier.A petition tyas received from water carriers and others,'eornplafamg qf the bad state of the water tap in St Lawrence Sujjur.bs.E petition was received from certain butchers in Bonsceonys IJarket for permission to sell salt meat.CHIEF OF POLICE.The City Clerk read three additional applications for the office of Chief of Police, viz : from J.J.Dumas, Capt.Fosbrook, a resident of William Henry, and Henry H.Bruyere.A long and exciting discussion sprung up on the question whether a chiep could be now appointed.Messrs.Coursol, Whitlaw, Thompson, Ricard, Homier, Campbell, and others took part.Mr-Coursol said that at the last meeting of the 'Coun.cil a resolution had been passed instructing the City Olerjt to advertise\u2019for further applications for the office.The applications now read were the result of that advertisement, but these would have to be referred to the Poljce Committee to investigate and report upon.He as one of that committee had only heard of those applications now, and he was not prepared to report.Councillor Campbell and Alderman Whitlaw accused the Chairman of the Police Committee (Mr.Coursol) of under-band work.They said this delay was on account of Mr.Comeau, formerly Chief of Police here, who had been written Cholera in the Eastern Townships.\u2014We understand that there had been eleven cases of Cholera at Richmond,Shipton, up to Wednesday last, nine of which had proved fatal.It broke out in a boarding house in which a large number of railroad laborers were crowded together.The victims are reported to have been addicted to the free use of liquor.This, with the excessive heat of the weather, is sufficient to account for sudden deaths, without the aid of Asiatic Cholera, although we, understand the medical men of the place pronounce the disease real cholera.One of the victims we are told, after drinking a tumbler of \u201crot gut\u201d laid down in the sun and went to sleep for an hour or two, awoke iu distress, took another tumbler of the liquid poison,\u2014and died soon after\u2014as was to have been expected.The disease has been confined to the house where it broke out.The inhabitants applied to the late Mayor of the County Council to have a Board of Health established in the Tillage.But his term of office having expired, and no one being appointed in his stead, a temporary Board we understand was appointed by the Secretary Treasury, and their names forwarded to His Excellency the Governor General, for confirmation or reappointment.We learn that a relative of Mr.Bothwell ot Durham was brought from Montreal, last week, sick with the cholera and died.The body was kept two or three days before being buried.This ill advised step was probably the cause of four other deaths in the family, from the same disease, which followed in a short time.We do not learn that the disease has spread to other families.Within a fortnight past there has been a good many cases of cholera morbus in Sherbrooke, but all of them have readily yielded to medical treatment.We understand that a temporary hospital has been, or is about being erected a little out of the Town, to be used in case of sickness among emigrants who may arrive here.\u2014Sherbrooke Gazette, Saturday.At a meeting of the Town Council on Monday, J.G.Robertson, Esq., was unanimously elected Mayor, in the room of Sherin Bowen, whose term of office has expired, and who declined a re-election to the Council.\u2014lb.The nomination of candidates for Sherbrooke and Wolfe Counties, took place at Richmond on Monday.Mr.Felton and Mr.Aylmer were put iu nomination by their respective friends.Both candidates addressed the electors, as did also Mr Brooke, and Mr.Mack of Montreal.The latter, we are told, made a speech at large, not being suited with either of the gentlemen nominated.The show of hands is reported to have been in favor of Mr.Aylmer although most of the electors had departed, wearied with long speeches.\u2014 lb.TRADE AND CQMMERCE.Imports by the Champlain & St.Lawrence Railroad* July 24.Hibbard & co 3 bxs;

a certain per centum of the copper, an4 if it succeeds as well as is now anticipated it will be of immense advantage to the Mon.real Mining Co.and a handsome speculation for the proprietors of the patent.This Company have shipped this season two hundred and fifty tons of ore, and have a contract to furnish twelve hundred tons for a Baltimore smelting establishment, and from the amount of ore now dressed, we should say they had nearly the quantity required.They own a steamboat, which carries down ore, and brings up supplies for the mine ; besides which, there are two or three sail vessels running to the mine.Mr.Barron continues the able superintendent of this extensive coneeru.\u2014Lake Superior Journal, July 8th.Steam on Lake Superior.\u2014We are informed that the steamer Superior is to be forthwith hauled over the Portage to run on Lake Superior, in connection with the Troy and Queen City, thus forming a continuous line from Chicago to the head of the above lake.The facilities for the transport of a vessel across the portage are now very much embarrassed by the work upon the canal, as the old route taken by them jn crossing was directly in the course of the excavation.A new route will be found, if not upon our own side, upon the Canada.The season is fast approaching for the forwarding of the fall supplies for the mines, and we have had fears that there were not vessels enough upon Lake Superior to do the necessary business.Should the Superior he gotten across all safely, and is a proper boat for the place, we have no doubt thé transportation will all be done up in order.We hope the Superior is a good staunch boat, for we think none but a first class one should ever be put on this lake.The iron-bound coast, and the ocean seas which are pften kicked up, form no trifling objects to contend with.\u2014Ibid.Horrid Accident\u2014Two Men Blown Up.\u2014Yesterday morning, a waggon whs loaded with freight for an interior store, by one of the merchants of this place.It seems a keg of 25fts.of powder was with the load.John Peutland, the interior merchant, accompanied the load, and Mathew Carl was the driver.It seems they were smokmg a cigar or pipe, and by some means the powfiac ignite)] and blew up, scattering the other freight, setting the waggon on fire, and the two persons found themselves on the ground, their clothes mostly burned from them, and several portions of their bodies burned and ffiled with powder, They now lie in a very critical state, and the chances are against their living.\u2014 The horses were badly hurt, and of course ran away with the waggon on fire.They were soon Stopped.Both of the persons were very much reapeetpd here.\u2014Toronto Globe, Friday.The Harvest.\u2014TfiP bay harvest throughout the County of York is neariy over._ The crop is barely ah average'one ;
