MORNING, JANUARY 16, 1855.JCv\u2019TAKE NOTICE.\u2014 We take no Letters out of the Post Office unless they are prb-paid.The News by the Baltic.\u2014We continue our extracts, this morning, from the English papers, with which the Baltic's mail supplied us on Saturday.Heartily do we wish that a more attentive perusal of them had supplied us with some reliable evidence of inaccuracy or exaggeration in the London Times\u2019 lamentations over the deplorable condition of our army in the Crimea; but we have searched in vain for any such evidence; and, however painful and humiliating, we are forced to acknowledge that, if Sebastopol is destined to fall, it will be not as a result of the science and foresight of our war department or the generalship of our officers, but of the indomitable\u2014the almost superhuman\u2014 endurance and gallantry of our men.Admitting, to the full extent, the folly and presumption of \u201c military criticism\u201d on the part of civilians, or even of professional critics at a distance from the scene of action, which Lord John Russel in the opening debate of the present session of Parliament took the opportunity of condemning, there are clearly matters, unconnected with strategy, in the conducting of every campaign, on which the civilian is quite as competent to form a sound and correct opinion as the soldier.Need we say that we allude to the lodging, clothing, feeding and medical departments, without efficiency in which, history and common-sense alike dictate that no army can be more than temporarily victorious\u2014even if commanded by a Wellington or Napoleon and composed of French or English troops.We ask, then, whether the perusal of the countless official and non-official, professional and non-professional letters from the seat of war, published from day to day in the English journals, do not afford the most con-yincing proof of an amount of ignorance, negligence and inefficiency in the non-combative departments of the army, fully justifying the severe animadversions and almost desponding conclusions of the Times.There is another point of view, however, from which, it appears to us, the object of the Thunderer\u2019s more recent exposure of the difficulties before Sebastopol, may possibly, be discovered.The most important and interesting feature in the Baltic's news, few will hesitate to admit, is the intelligence of the approaching conference at Vienna ; where the terms of the treaty of the 2nd December, between Austria and the Western Powers, will be considered, not only by English, French, Austrian and Prussian Ambassadors, but at which also, it is stated.Prince Gortschakoff will be present, on the part of Russia.At this conference, it follows as matter of course, every possible means will be resorted to, by which a peace may be effected the terms of which, it requires no great measure of astuteness to foresee, may satisfy the states, men and yet, under the circumstances, be far from palatable to the people of Great Britain.\u2014 Indomitable and persevering as the people of England, proverbially, have shown themselves to be, wherever the honor or interest of the Empire is at stake, the late articles in the Times are assuredly little calculated to give them confidence in the immediate results of operations in the Crimea ; and can scarcely fail at least to temper and modify the ardor of their warlike predilections, and induce their assent to giving Russia such terms as, under different circumstances! they might refuse to* listen to.It is, at alj ¦events, undeniable that, on this subject of a peace, the Times has greatly moderated its tone-We no longer bear of Russia being deprived of the Crimea, or of its restoration to its old master, the Turk ; and we are didactically informed that, \u201c as this war has not been undertaken for any purpose of territorial aggrandizement, neither can it be persevered in from any vindictive motive or from false notions of military glory.\u201d\u2014 In an article on the 25th ultimo, we find the Times thus landing Lord John Russell\u2019s definition of the ¦\u201c position\u201d :\u2014 The debate which took place in the House of Commons on Friday evening had the effect of eliciting from Lord John Russell a more precise definition than we ham before obtained of the objects to which the allied powers are disposed to \u2022limit the war they are waging against Russia, and of the extent to which they carry the conditions proposed for the re-establishment of peace.It is on every account desirable that more clear and accurate notions should prevail on these subjects, for, as Mr.Cobden observed, with considerable truth, it is not uncommon to meet with extraordinary disagreements between intelligent men on the objects of the war ; and this confusion of ideas has been increased by a vast deal of bombast and unthinking declamation.We do not the more agree with Mr.Cobden in his inference that the objects of the war cannot be defined, and we think that Lord John Russell was not unsuccessful in his attempt to ijefine them.But in the prosecution of this great contest, in which the resources and the honour of the country are already so deeply engaged, it is of the utmost importance to oar consistency and to our national interest to keep steadily in view the motives for which we took up arms,and the terms on which we may consent to lay them down again.We are not engaged in a war of territorial conquest, and, if by the success of our arms we should succeed in wresting from Russia any important portion of her dominions, it would not be easy to determine what should be the future condition of that territory.France and England expressly disclaimed, by a formal article in their treaty of alliance at the commencement of hostilities \u201c any particular advantage\u201d to themselves from the war, by which expression they are clearly precluded from any territorial aggrandizement of their own possessions.The idea of extending the limits of the Ottoman empire, which already includes more provinces than the Ministers and armies of the Sultan can govern or defend, is evidently preposterous ; for such an arrangement would only lead to fresh contests and perpetual hostility between the Porte and its powerful neighbour.We therefore record with satisfaction the declaration of Lord John Russell, that \u201c the Government have no wish to continue the war for the sake of dismembering Russia or depriving her of any portion of her territories ; and that, if we can arrive at a peace which would give us security, we have no desire for an indefinite object to continue the miseries of war.\" May not, then, the article of the 23rd ultimo\u2014 which we republished and commented upon yesterday\u2014have been written quite as much with a view to the coming conference at Vienna and its results, as to rouse the indignation of the country against the mismanagement of the war department and .the incapacity of Lord Raglan in the -Orimea ?and went back in the same direction as ourselves.We crossed at the Edward Street crossing, and proceeded along Edward Street towards Elizabeth Street, the two men walking slowly before us, one of them before the other, as if they wished us to pass them, to see who we were.As we were passing them, I partly turned towards them, as they looked as if intending to attack us ; and at the same time I was telling my brother something about an acquaintance of his, named Grant.The deceased, Samuel Reid, spoke to my brother, and said he thought he was lame.My brother replied, \u201cYes,\u201d still walking on.Deceased enquired \u201c how far have you come to-day?\u201d to which my brother replied \u201c about 50 miles.\u201d Deceased then asked \u201cwhere from ?\u201d and my brother said \u201c Bunker\u2019s Hill.\" think that the latter answer was made in a joke.Deceased said \u201c Nay, you have been here in this street, to-night before, five minutes ago.\u201d At that moment Mr.Crane passed by towards the corner of Edward and Elizabeth Streets.\u2014 When deceased stated that we had been there before, I turned round and said \u201c No sir, we've just come up from the market.\u201d I bad scarcely spoken, when he lifted his hand and struck me in the face, knocking me back against the fence.He shouted instantly for his friend Crane, and struck at my brother at the same time.Crane sprang from the corner and knocked my brother down on the side walk, and deceased knocked me down, but a little further back.Finding that I could not getaway from him, being repeatedly knocked down and all this time my brother being beaten, I shouted \u201cmurder\u201d several times Seeing that they would not let us away, and no person coming to our assistance, I thought they intended to murder us.The thought of that unfortunate knife came into my mind, it being in my pocket, and, with no intention of taking life, I thought if I used it in a place not dangerous I might get away from him.I then escaped, and my brother and I ran along Elizabeth Street to Agnes Street, then to Park lane.The knife now produced is the one that was used on the occasion alluded to, and is mine.I bought it to take to the bush with me.I mentioned that I was going to live in ColHugwood township, and told the purpose for which I wanted a knite, in the shop at which I purchased the nails.I told young man in the shop that 1 was going out into a wild bush where I heard there were bears.The Jury made a very proper return, their recommendation being one that should produce its effect not only upon the authorities, but upon every individual.It camiot be too deeply impressed on the minds of all that the direct road to murder is the habitual carrying of murderous weapons.At twenty minutes past six o\u2019clock the jury were locked up to consider the finding ; and at at half-past eight a verdict of \u201c Wilful Murder\u201d was returned against both prisoners.But one juror dissented from the verdict.The following was handed to the Coroner by the Foreman, (Mr.C.Fisher,) shortly after the announcement, to which the Coroner briefly replied.\u201c The jury would urge on the authorities the great necessity of putting the law in force respecting the importation and sale of bowie knives, and other dangerous weapons of that description, which are now to be found in almost all the stores of the city, not only in hardware establishments but also in all the clothing stores, to the great demoralization of our youth, and, we are sorry to say, those of riper years.\u201c The jury feel it their duty to acknowledge the zeal, ability, and patience of the Police force, during this long and arduous inquiry, but especially of Constables Ramsay, Robert Smith, and Henderson, who were very active and persevering in their endeavours to promote the ends of justice.The jurors also express their opinion that the arrest and detention of the various persons, during the progress of the inquisition, were justifiable and necessary.\u201cThe Jury beg to return their thanks to the learned Coroner for the good attention and ability with which he has conducted this most protracted and painful enquiry.Charles Fisher, Foreman.\" Departures for Europe.\u2014The following gentlemen, we are informed, left town yesterday, and will sail, in the Asia steamer, from Boston on Wednesday A.Levesque, of the firm of J.Bruneau ; F.Roy, of the firm of Galarneau & Roy ; G.Fauteux, of the firm of A.Prévost & Cie.; Y.Hudon, of the firm

the City of Ottawa (erstwhile Bytown).At the meeting of Council, which was held at noon yesterday, Mr.Lewis was proposed by Alderman Sparks, seconded by Alderman McGill, and after a few remarks from Alderman Friel, was declared unanimously elected by the City Clerk.family, ventured to exbibit a pistol, when ordered from his work.He was instantly struck down with a stone thrown at his back, and seriously injured.Others have received the same kind of treatment A few days after, the Mayor was informed of the state of affairs, and promptly provided a strong police force, which suppressed further disturbance.These laborers have already inflicted a great injury upon themselves, (or rather, their counsellors have done it,) and embarrassed the business of the port ; and the same is true of other branches of labor, similarly regulated by \u201c Unions ;\u201d for capitalists caunot, or will not employ them.Charity, too, is apt to be closed against them, wherever the facts are known.Last year, in more prosperous times, laborers demanded and received an advance of wages.It is but fair that now, when times are changed, they should cheerfully consent that the advance be discontinued.The same remarks apply to all others affected by Trades Unions.Theatre Royal.\u2014Monsieur Jacques.\u2014Last night we witnessed the début of the celebrated author and actor Mr.Morris Barnelt.The drama selected for the occasion was one which has achieved a world-wide reputation for its touching story, and for the unapproachable acting of the chief character.Although it does not aim at the highest tragic vein, it possesses so touching a pathos, such a passionate appeal to the best sympathies of our nature\u2014so affecting a pour-traiture of a stricken heart still hoping against hope, that the sternest nature and the most obdurate soul cannot withstand its truthfulness and its reality, and yet nothing is overstrained.\u2014 There are no conventional appeals\u2014no stage conventionalities.The living being stands before us in its utter bereavement, clinging to the memory of his first love, existing upon her memory, and seeking bis solace in his old piano, and the belief that in his opera he will be immortalized\u2014yet the pride is free from the alloy of self love, his hope for fame and distinction, is only that it may yield delight.to his Mariana.\u2014 We will not give a dull outline of the plot, for we feel all will witness this master-piece of true genius.The passionate grief of the character is by turns illuminated by quaint touches of true humour, and the pronunciation of the French has the true gallic flavor.The song of \u201c To-Morrow,\u201d is delicious in melody, and was admirably sung by Mr.Morris Barnett, who is evidently as accomplished a vocalist, as he is an actor of his class beyond all comparison with any of his predecessors.Mrs.Buckland as \u201cNina,\u201d the daughter of the old Musician, performed with a thoroughly tetistie spirit, and assisted in the furore which the drama produced.At the fall of the curtain, there was an enthusiastic call for Mr.Morris Barnett and Mrs.Buckland, who appeared before the curtain to acknowledge the well earned compliments of the andience.Peace.\u2014The New York.Tribune in its commercial article on Friday morning says : \u2014 There is a fair amount of orders for American securities by the Baltic, with the intimation that they will increase, if the accounts from this side indicate the growth of eonfidencs.The Money market is quoted as easy, and many of the letters confidently express an opinion that peace is near at hand.A letter from Paris states that an arrangement for taking the new loan of five hundred millions of francs had already been concluded with the capitalists of that city.There was an increased inquiry for American securities in London.We have to thank Mr.J.C.Beeket for a copy of his beautifully executed Calender for 1855.Saguenay.\u2014We learn, by telegraph from Quebec yesterday afternoon, that M.Huot, the opposition candidate for this county, has been elected, by a majority of 518 votes over his ministerial opponent, M.Langlois, of Quebec.Death of Judge Panet.\u2014We regret to learu, by a telegraphic dispatch from Quebec, that this venerable Judge died yesterday morning, at six o\u2019clock.The Ladies of the Committee of Management of the University Lying-in Hospital, very thankfully acknowledge the following handsome delations for the use of the Institution, viz 39 yards of Grey Cotton ; box of Crackers, 30 lbs.; tub of Butter, 40 lbs.; also, a large quantity of Meat, above 100 lbs; Fish, Fowls, and Vegetables from the Butchers and Dealers of the 3t.Anne\u2019s Market, with other useful articles from various friends of the Institution.Captain Thorndike writes to inform us that we erroneously attributed to him the authorship of the song sung by him at the Promenade Concert.The true author is H.Hargrave, Esq.Tee Reid Murder at Toronto.\u2014The inquest in Ibis case has been closed ; and the two brothers Irving have been declared by the Jury guilty of wilful murder.The following are the important points of the statement made by one ¦of them :\u2014 On Tuesday, the 2d January, I was at work with Mr.Worthington, at the Observatory.About the middle of the day, my brother James, who was on a^short visit in town, from Esquesing, where he resides, came out to the Observatory, where I was working, and after staying for a short time, returned .to the town to see some friends of his.At the close of the day\u2019s work I went home.My brother was not there.After I had had tea, I went out to look for him, as we had been invited to a party in Mrs.Mitchell\u2019s, schoolmistress, at the head of Park Lane, and I thought he might cot know of it.I met him in Nelson Street, opposite the Market block, accompanied by two young men whom I did not know.One of the young men left us, and my brother having said that he wished to enquire for a Mr.¦Campbell, in George Platt\u2019s Inn, we entered the \u2022Inn, but found Mr.Campbell out.I took some .peppermint in the Inn, the young man I think took beer.I do not recollect what my brother drank.On coming out, the young man left us and proceeded east along King Street.\u2014 My brother and I went west along King Street, up Toronto Street, along Adelaide Street, up Yonge Street, along Queen Street, till we came to Terauley Street.We proceeded up Te-rauley Street on the east side.As we approached Agnes Street, we saw two men on the west side of Terauley Street coming down.When they came to the Agnes Street crossing, they turned The Paris Industrial Committee meet this day (Tuesday,) the 16th instant, at the Rooms of the Mechanics\u2019 Institute, All who take interest in this National undertaking will be glad to know that the Committee are in such a position as to insure the Products of Canada a successful representation.The whole product of the province will be exhibited in Montreal on or about the last days of February, previous to shipment to France,' and all articles which are considered the best, will be paid for by the Commissioners and sent; should prizes, &c., be awarded to any of such, it will be tbe property of the producer.Ship-Building in New York-\u2014Reduction of Wages.\u2014We learn from the New York Journal of Commerce, that, on Thursday last, a meeting of the ship-owners of that city was held, at which the following resolutions were presented:\u2014 Whereas, The shipping interest of this city is suffering from a depression in the rates of freight from this port, and is likewise, receiving small returns for conveyance of freight and passengers from Europe to this port ; Therefore, Resolved, That we feel it a matter of necessity to reduce the pay of shipwrights and caulkers to two dollars and fifty cents a day, instead of three dollars, which has been the rate of wages for some time past.Resolved, That we wiii pay as above, two dollars and a half per day, and no more.Resolved, That the pay of laborers and riggers be reduced twenty-five cents per day,\u2014the former from $1,'I5 W $1,50, and the latter from $2 to $1,75.These resolutions were unanimously adopted, and are to take effect Pn Monday next They were signed as follows ;\u2014 B.E.Morgan, Wakeman, Dimon & Co., David Ogden, MoOready, Mott & Co , Cornelius Grinnell, Durham & Dimon, Chas.H.Marshall & Co., S.Thompson & Nephews, William Nelson & Son, Wm.Whitlock, Jr., Zerega & Co., Spofford, Tilsston & Co., Alexander Wiley, Williams & Guion, Johnson & Lowden, And others.Our N.Y.contemporary thus, justly remarks upon these proceedings .-\u2014 The ship-owners have taken this step very reluctantly.Labor has been excessively abundant for sonie time past, and yet could with difficulty be procured at other that exorbitant rates.Several ship-owners agreed upon rates of wages which they could reasonably afford, and engaged the requisite number of men, when the latter were violently assailed and driveu off, either to starve or beg.One of them, an honest fellow, recently from Ireland, repaired to his employer\u2019s store, stating his grievance,\u2014he having been informed that if he went, to work again oh similar terms, he should \u201c take his coffin with him.\u201d Another man, who had determined to protect himself, that he might provide for his CORRESPONDENCE.To the Editor of the Montreal Herald.Sir,\u2014In the report of the \u201c City Council Proceedings\u201d in yesterday's Herald, my name has been freely mentioned in connection with the Pipe Culvert under the Lachine Canal, and some explanation may not at this time be improper.I am aware that many reports have been industriously circulated for some time past with respect to the New Water Works, but as these were of a piece with those charging corruption and various enormities on members of the Water Committee, I did not consider it necessary to notice them until they should assume some official or tangible shape, particularly, as the quarter from which they emanated and the parties by whom they were retailed, were not conspicuous either for intelligence or influence in the community.As the best explanation of the difficulty at the Culvert, I beg to submit my report thereon to the Water Committee, and, I would at the same time, take the opportunity of correcting the impression which has been conveyed abroad with respect to the cause of the disaster.It has been assumed that, because a break has taken place in the Culvert, the plan or construction must have been defective.With respect to the plan, it was one furnished and approved of by the Department of Public Works, and is similar to that which carries the River St.Pierre under the Canal; and as to the construction, the best proof of its sufficiency is that it proved itself equal to ever;' requirement for six mouths, between May and November, while the Canal was filled with water.I can only express my conviction that, if any of the Board of Works\u2019 culverts had been treated in the same inconsiderate manner, the like result must inevitably have happened.I was unavoidably absent from town when the break occurred, and it will be seen from the records that neither the Water Committee nor myself had anticipated that a third party would take upon himself to interfere in the matter.Mr.Alderman Grenier informed the Council \u201c that Mr.Keefer did not understand that kind of work which he (Mr.G.,) as an old contractor, pretended to understand.\u201d I plead guilty to this charge ; I have never been able to understand Mr.Grenier, and, I fear, be has not been able to understand my plans ; for notwithstanding that the Consulting Engineers, the Water Committee, the Council and citizens have approved of and authorized them to be curried out, Mr.Grenier has, since the commencement of the work, endeavoured to substitute notions of his owu, the details of which might be made amusing, but would not be instructive.Fortunately for the New Water Works and City Treasury, there has always been intelligence enough in the Water Committee to prevent the adoption of any of Mr.Grenier\u2019s schemes.The only instance in which his views have been carried out\u2014although not so intended by the Water Committee\u2014is in the repairs to the pipe-joints in the Culvert, and the result is before the public.I have the honour to be, Sir, Your obedient servant, Thos.C.Keefer.REPORT.Montreal Water Works, ( Engineer\u2019s Office, j Montreal, 29th November, 1854.E, Atwater, Esq., Chairman Water Committee, Corporation of Montreal.Sir,\u2014In compliance with the decision of the Committee at last night\u2019s meeting, I beg to report on \u201c all matters connected with the recent break in the Pipe Culvert\u201d under the Laohine Canal.First, with respect to the probable cause of the break\u2014 It is manifest, from the construction of the Culvert, that the only way in which such a quantity of water could have obtained access, was, by passing down at the side and getting under the bottom, thus forcing up the bottom planking, which was held down by spikes.The sides and the top of the Culvert being planked on the outside as well as on the inside, no large body of water could force itself in, except through the bottom, which could only be planked on the inside.For a period of six months\u2014from May until November\u2014no canal water found access to the Culvert; the last month of this period the Culvert was empty, or nearly so, and subject to tne full pressure.The top of the Culvert and the sides, for a depth of, at least, four feet below canal bottom, were protected by a covering of concrete and the water must have passed down, outside of this concrete altogether, at some distance from the sides of the Culvert, unless the concrete had been cracked.If there was a tendency (from the nature of the natural ground,) in the water to pass down outside of the Culvert, it would seem that this should have occurred at some earlier period,£(as there has always been a head of, at least, eight feet on the Culvert) and that it would have immediately taken place when the Culvert was emptied, and this head increased to nearly 20 feet.The only way in which the concrete wrapping over the top and sides of the Culvert could be injured, would be by some strain exerted on the interior of the wooden trunk, as it is impossible that it cç.tjld be touched by any craft navigating the banal.If, as J?as been stated, any strain was exerted on the interior of the Culvert by the parties who had undertaken to overhaul the pipes, it is my decided opinion that the effect of such a strain would be to crack the concrete; and that to this cause the origin of the break is to be traced.At the same time, I would say that the cause of the break will always be a matter of mystery ; and, considering the character of the ground, might have occurredjwithout.referenee to strains exerted in the interior : yetif it be proved that such strains were exerted, po other cause, for the break need be sought for.When the Culvert was emptied for the purpose of cleaning and inspection, it was not anticipated by me that it would be necessary to keep the water out of it more than three days, (and this will be as long a period as it will, in all probability, be necessary to keep it .empty Tor any future repairs) and on the llth October, I addressed the accompanying letter to the Superintendant of the old works, to whom the Committee had entrusted the laying of the pumping main, from which, it will be seen, that I expected all necessary work in the Culvert would be completed on the 14th of the same month.Up the 13th October, finding no commencement had been made, I addressed a second letter, (copy annexed) requesting a decided answer and urging expedition.Instead of \u201c driving up\u201d the lead joints which appeared to require it ; and which I considered (and still consider) all that was necessary to be done, the Superintendant condemned the whole and asserted that it would be necessary to take the pipes apart in order to make good joints.\u2014 On learning these, as well as some other equally startling views of the Superintendent, respecting the Culvert and main, I felt it my duty to protest against the matter being left to his decision, as I considered the course proposed unnecessary, almost impracticable, and one which would carry the making of the new joints into the cold weather, involve the expense of keeping the Culvert dry, and all the risks attendant on it.From the opinions expressed, I considered the Superintendent\u2019s views of pipe-laying novel and impracticable ; and as I was aware that a difficulty had taken place between himself and the contractors who had laid the pipes, I could not consider him an impartial party.I, therefore, urged the Committee to send two experienced pipe-layers to examine every joint and do what was necessary to make them secure.This course was decided upon, and iu view of the expenses which might be incurred, I was ordered to notify the contractors that they would be held responsible for any defective, work done by them ; after which tbe Superintendent was ordered to send two pipe-layers to examine and make «good tbe joints.What took place in the Culvert can only be arrived at by the evidence of the parties engaged, but I have learned from both parties that one of the pipe-layers, after makine the attempt to separate one of the mains, decided it must be cut, which course the Superintendent objected to, and undertook the separation of the main himself.In order to make the question understood, it is necessary I should refer to the history of tbe lead-joints which have given rise to this difficulty.When the Culvert was ready for the reception of the pipes, we were working night and day against time, and I found it necessary to put the laying of these pipes into the hands of the contractors, in order that by not interfering with them, we should give them no excuse for failing in the main object : the completion of the Culvert.I applied for an experienced pipe-layer from the Corporation to oversee the laying of the pipes ; a resolution of the Committee placed the matter under the superintendence of Mr.Leblanc, but this was not communicated to me until after the pipes were laid.Mr.Leblanc speedily got info a difficulty with the contractors, and as we had no time for disputes, I requested him to give me his best pipe-layers to remain constantly on tbe work, for 1 was aware that Mr.Leblanc could not give his constant attention to it, and as he was not a practical pipe-layer, be was not the person required.I was also satisfied that his demands of the contractor were absurd, and his views of pipelaying impracticable, particularly at such a time and iu such a place.He contended that every joint into which the full quantity (of four inches in depth of lead around a two feet pipe) was not run at the first trial must be melted out, and the\u2019 trial repeated until successful.Under this system it was evident the joints would not have been made in months; the pipes would have been destroyed by repeated heating of one end ; the culvert set on fire, and the carpenters driven out of it by the constant smoke.Mr.Leblanc complied with my request and placed a pipe-layer named Robinson to oversee the work.This man at once controverted the superintendent\u2019s theory, and instanced that a pattern joint sent out to the works had only been' filled with lead with three several pourings, although in a warm shop with every facility ; and yet it was expected that the contractors should do in the culvert in cold weather, what could not be done in the shop.The pattern joint had been proved in the press.The lead was supplied by the Corporation, and it is impossible to suppose that the contractors could have any interest in slighting the work.The place and the season of the year were certainly unfavourable.to the making of perfect joints.I repeatedly urged upon the overseer Robinson, the importance of having the work well done, and he invariably assured me that he believed and considered it was so done.He never expressed any other opinion to me, until after the Superintendent had said the work must be done over again,\u2014that is until after the 1st October.The weight of the canal bauks, at one end of the culvert, caused a depression of about one foot during the Summer, carrying down the pipe with it, and \u201cdrawing\u201d slightly several of the lead joints.This, with the expansion daring summer of pipes laid in cold weather, (which expansion, for the whole main, would take place naturally at the weak joints,) I consider sufficient to account for the leakage which appeared in the pipes\u2014without assuming that every joint made by the contractors was bad.Before the joints could be completed, iu April, the culvert was flooded, and afterwards pumped out.This, with other difficulties, render it quite possible that some of the joints made by the contractors were not perfected, althbugh it was the opinion of our overseer that all was right.But admitting that all of the lead joints on examination proved defective, I consider tbe real question is whether this was a sufficient reason for tearing the main asunder.I feel convinced that competent pipe layers could have made tight and secure the worst joint without separating the pipes, or without even melting them out, and that a few days, or a week at most, would have been sufficient time to have done all that was required in the Culvert.As it has been asserted that the pipes were laid without sufficient lap, I send a plan of the Culvert, shewing the measured length of each pipe as compared with the measurement of pipes laid this summer; and shewing also the \u201csettling\u201d which took place in the south end of the Culvert.I have the honor to be, Sir, Your obedient servant, »»»«-'i«xxx.u

member for the city of Dublin :\u2014 \u201c Deanery-house, Gort, Dec.6.\u201cSir,\u2014I have been referred by Captain Taylor to you for a reply to my letter to him, respecting the authority under which you considered yourself justified in offering the very illegal and unwarranted indignity to me and the Protestant clergy of my chapter and the diocess, at the late Patriotic Fund meeting at Gort.The brother of the Prévost of Kilmacduagh conveyed to me at the request of Captain Taylor, that you had consulted the Ecclesiastical Commissioners on tbe subject; but that highly respectable and learned body, in a letter addressed to the Prévost and myself, indignantly deny that they gave any such opinion as that a Roman Catholic Bishop (to whom yon illegally gave the ti tle of Bishop of Ki-macduagh), should take precedence, of a Protestant dean and chapter of that diocess.I hope, in common courtesy and justice, you will not withhold from me, and the Protestant clergy who attended the Gort meeting, the authority under which you felt justified in oflering>the unwarranted indignity to them anil me on that occasion, and which prevented our taking any part in the advocacy of the abject for which the meeting was called, unless we sacrificed our rank, station and principles at the shrine of Roman Catholic ascendancy.\" \u201c I am.Sir, your obedient servant, 1 \u201c J.A.Bermingham, Dean of Kilmacduagh, &c.\u201c W.H.Gregory, &c.\u201d \u201c Coole-park, Dec.19.\u201c Yery Rev.Sir,\u2014My absence from Coole, and your communication of the 6th inst.having been forwarded to the Kildare-street Club, where I only received it yesterday, had prevented me from sending you an earlier reply.\u201cHad you applied to me when requested to do so, as yon write by Captain S.Taylor (who, f may parenthentically observe, made no such request to you, but merely referred you to me for such explanations as you might require) you would have spared yourself the trouble of communicating with the Ecclesiastical Commissioners, would have been saved the indignation which it appears, according to your statement, your letter created among that \u2018 highly respectable and learned body.\u2019 \u201c I have had no communication with the Ecclesiastical Commissioners on the subject of any point of precedence connected with the Gort Patriotic Fund meeting, nor did I at any time state to any one that I had any such communication.\u201c I may premise, before entering into this discussion, that if I wished to avoid an explanation of the course that has been pursued in the arrangement of the Gort Patriotic meeting, I might refuse to entertain your letter, and refer you td the Gort committee, as whose chairman I acted, and at whose unanimous wish the resolutions and their proposers and seconders were appointed.I do not, however, seek to avoid the responsibility, but take the whole of it on myself, premising merely that the course adopted was acquiesced iu by every person, whether Protestant or Roman Catholic, who was present and took part in the preliminary proceeding.The \u2018 illegal\u2019 and \u2018unwarrantable indignity\u2019 offered to you, if I understand aright, and for which you require me to \u2018justify\u2019 myself in your eyes, consisted in the first resolution of the meeting not haying been assigned to you, but to the Roman.Catholic bishop of the district ; and at the conclusion of your letter you state that \u2018ydur rank and station would have been sacrificed at the.\u2018 shrine of Catholic ascendancy \u2019 had you taken part iu the proceedings.\u201cI am sorry to commence my \u2018justification\u2019 by informing you that \u2018 your rank and station \u2019 are imaginative; they do not exist; and, as you appeal to rules and practice of precedency, I refer you to the table of Irish precedence, in which you will perceive that as Dean you are not recognized, but, as being Doctor of Divinity, you can, if you please, take your position next to Doctor of Medicine.So much for your positive \u2018 rank and station ;\u2019 and here I may remark that.Lord Clanmorris, who has both established \u2018 rank and station,\u2019 did not consider them sacrificed at the shrine of Catholic ascendancy, nor himself treated with indignity by being requested to propose or second some intermediate resolution, ' to which, with perfect readiness, ho consented.\u201e»l\u201c But now, as regards your relative \u2018 rank and station?Assuming, for argument, that as Dean yon are entitled to such, and that the maintenance of precedence was the only cause'that ih-: duced the committee to request the Roman Catholic bishop to propose the first resolution\u2014I will adduce some instances of usual practice, which may satisfy you that, the course pursued by the committee and myself was the right course, and that, had rve acted qtherwise, we should have been subjecting the Roman Oath.lie bishop to an \u2018Unmerited and unwarrantable indignity.\u2019 \u201cFirst of all, I will adduce the routine observed by tbe first magistrate of tbe metropolis, tbe Lord Mayor, at his annual dinner, at which the Queen\u2019s representative is present.You will perceive, according to the list of toasts, that the health of the Roman Catholic Archbishop immediately follows the health of tbe Protestant Archbishop of Dublin, and Archbishops, you are perhaps aware, take precedence of dukes, and you will find that the Roman Catholic Archbishop takes precedence at.the Lord Mayor\u2019s dinner of every other Irish dignitary, the Lord Mayor and Lord Lieuteaant alono excepted, \u201c You may, however, be twilling to recognize a Lord Mayor of Dubi as an authority ; let me proceed a step higlr, and refer you to the usage of Her Majesty, thhead of the Angli-caq church.Her Majesty hd her first levee in Dublin on Wednesday, the 8i of August, 1849; in the list of the private crée we find the following precedency :\u2014Arolishop of Dublin; Roman Catholic Archbisht of Dublin; Lord Chief Justice Queen\u2019s Bern; Master of the Rolls, &c.\u201c This order of presentatit is arranged after due consideration by the Ld Chamberlain, and by it you will perceive that te Roman Catholic archbishop takes precedenc precisely as if he had been a third archbishopif our church ; nor am I aware that the marquis,, earls, viscounts, bis'hops, lords, and other digitaries then present and afterwards introduced complained of their \u2018rank and station\u2019 being sacriced at the shrine of Roman Catholic ascendancym that occasion.But, perhaps, you may omur to the usage of Lord Mayor and Queen ; I lust, therefore, go further and refer you to theiroceedings of Parliament, and to an act of Paiament entitled the Charitable Bequests Act.Ulow me to point ,oqt toyou thelStb, I7thand8th sections of that act of Parliament, in whichthe archbishop and bishops of the church of Roœ are recognized and acknowledged.Nay morejn the list of commissioners attached to the at you will find that the Roman Catholic Archlshop Murray takes precedence of the Earl of Duoughmore ; that he is, in fact, in the same positon as ho would be at the table of the Lord Mayc and levee of tbe Sovereign.Let me, howeer, advance a little onward, and advert to lecer practice in similar oases.By reference to the proceedings of the late Lmughrea Patriotic Fud meeting, 1 perceive that the Roman Catholic bihop of that district moved the first resolution, ad I have yet to learn (hat,Lord Clonbrock, althogh a peer of Parliament, has complained that is \u2018rank and station\u2019 have been' sacrificed at tb shrine of Roman Catholic ascendency by hi: taking part in the proceedings after a Roman Catholic prelate.\u2014 But as you may consider th.t Lord Clonbrock is less tenacious of his \u2018rankand station\u2019 than he ought to be, it may be satifactory for you to learn how our own bishopsict on similar occasions.By reference to theDublin Evening Post, of Friday last, I find tbe allowing list of the Tuam Patriotic Fund Comnittee, as arranged at a public meeting, and this is the order of arrangement :\u2014Lord Pluokit, chairmau ; Archbishop MiHaler ; Mr.S.Ki wan ; The Dean of Tuam, &c.with this somerhat significant concluding resolution : \u2014 \u201c That these our resolutims be published in the Dublin Evening Post, U AGE.We had the pleasing duty of alluding to tbe increasing and prosperous trade of our Port last year, and we feel equal pleasure in recording another great increase this year; but we fear it will not be attended with the same prosperous results as that of the last.This year\u2019s business opened with very flattering prospects ; our great staple\u2014timber\u2014commanded a high price in the English markets, and continued to do so for a considerable-time after the business season had commenced.This state of the markets induced large speculative shipments to be made, and the consequent great demand for ships run up freights from 52s to 60s.for Timber, and £7 lOs.to £8 10s.for Deals ; and these rates were continued for some time, when a reaction took place in the English markets, and the price of Timber began to recede, and continued to that extent as to stop its export, except it could be shipped at a mere nominal freight.The consequence was that freights fell at the close of the season to 22s.6d.for Timber, and £3 10s.to £4 for Deals, and this in view of an exorbitant high price Of labor, coupled with unusually high prices for provisions, which must have so increased the disbursements of ships as to cause heavy losses iu many cases to the owners.The total number of vessels, of all classes, from without the Province, which arrived here this year, was 1563, forming 600,838 tons.Of

enlarging and remodeling it, so that it is now one of the most capacious and commodious Hotels in the city.The rooms have been entirely re-furnished in a style benefitting a first class hotel ; and neither pains nor expense have been spared to make it attractive to the business man and the man of leisure;\u2014its location, midway between the two great Railroad Depots and adjacent to the landing of the Eastern Steamboats, on the score of convenience being second to that of no other in Portland.Having had an experience of nearly twenty years in his line of business, ten of which have been

for a term of years, and recently opened the new and spacious Hotel at Island Pond.This House was built by the Railroad Companies, and the land proprietors at Island Pond Junction, with special reference to the accommodation of the Railroad travel.It has been finished in the most thorough manner throughout, having accommodations for over 100 guests, and is tastefully fitted and furnished.Island Pond Junction is the half way stktion on the Montreal and Portland Railroad from the St.Lawrence to the Atlantic.AH trains work from this as a common point, through trains stopping for dinner, and way trains for the night.This place is destined to become one of the most attractive spots in New England, as a place for summer travel and resort.The Hotel looks down upon a beautiful sheet of water, elevated 1158 feet above the level of the Sea, forming the head waters of the river Clyde, which flows into Lake Memphremagog.Situated in the midst of the Green Mountains, few localities in New England possess more natural beauty, or offer more attractions to the lovers ql' the beautiful and the picturesque.From tins place it is 17 miles only, to Willoughby Lake, and 22 miles to Lake Memphremagog, already known as the favorite resort of the pleasure tourist.The region of Island Pond affords the greatest attractions for sporting and fishing.Provision will also be made for sailing excursions on the Lake, and there is a fine beach drive on its shore.The Subscriber intends to make his House in all respects a first class Hotel.A.C.JENNINGS.Island Pond, Nov.15, 1854.ly
