published yesterday, which the Hon.Mr.Matbeson had given notice he would move for the acceptance of the House on Monday | pcay earnestly.\u201d next.As, in our humble opinion, the hon.gen- j tleman\u2019s premises are, one and all, erroneous and unsustainable, it would only be a waste of our time and of our readers\u2019 patience were we to attempt to confute the conclusions he draws from them.It is useless to argue with a gentleman who, however sincerely, at this time of day holds, that the people of Canada have expressed no desire for the re-organization of the Legislative Council, by rendering its members their representatives and not the mere nominees of the Ministry : \u2014and equally so to complicate the actual interests of Canada with what those interests might oe in the event of a union of the whole British North American Provinces\u2014a consummation which we consider neither desirable nor probable :\u2014 1.\tResolved,\u2014That it is entirely without precedent that a measure initiating such organic changes in the Constitution and Government of a country, should he introduced without a desire to that effect having been expressed by the people.2.\tResolved,\u2014That so far from the Legislative Council, as at present constituted, having been an obstructive body, inclined to resist the popular sentiment, it is doubtful whether a single instance can be adduced where a measure originating in the Legislative Assembly, and having either been amended or rejected by the Legislative Council, such amendment or rejection has not been subsequently approved by the voice of the country, as expressed by its Representatives in Parliament.3.\tResolved,\u2014That it is not within the knowledge of this House, that the Legislative Council has, in any one instance, affirmed a measure of the Legislative Assembly, which has been generally condemned by the public sentiment of -\t_____- tr.Ilia Root from their households, will Unconsoiotlsly receive some of the seeds of truth and progression that will assist them in making the bodies of their children hitting shrines tor the indwelling of the soul element.To this effect will I labor and PETITION AGAINST THE SEIGNORIAL TENURE AMENDMENT BILL.Thb Distribution of Patronage.\u2014We have read of representative men\u2014of men who embody in their own persona the characteristics of a class or of an age\u2014and it struck us, while sedly musing on current events, that there may be such things as representative jobs\u2014jobs which in themselves, contain most of the odious properties which distinguish the jobs of various species.The job Litchfield seems to be one of these.A mere stranger, Dr.Litchfield has been placed in a position of emolument in contempt of the whole of $he highly respectable medical talent of our own country.A gentleman who has hitherto had no great professional success, he is to be charged with a duty of all others the most difficult, if indeed there be any duty at all.The office is bestowed upon him for no public services rendered; but because, being a stranger, he was quite willing to abuso persons of whom he knew nothing, and to flatter persons of whom he knew as little, in order 10 purchase his reward In one word, he puffed the Hiocke\u2019 ministry and abused ibe To ies, and then puffed Hincks\u2019 ministry and Furies, and abused alt honest men\u2014 the.whole in a very wishy-waeby way tor about a twe.vemunm\u2014and for that he is to have Ü30U a-}ear, and very little to do, for the rest of hb natural life.It is one of the most unpleasant duties of a public writer to make remarks like these, on a gentleman against whom he is anim ittd by no personal feeling, and indeed hardly any political feeling, since the polemic of the Doctor has certainly not been of a character to excite any passion, whatever olbe.- feelings it may have provoked.But we owe it to society, not to let so scandalous an abuse of the power to distribute ïbe public revenue pass unscathed.Take the defence of the ministerial nomination as it appears in the ministerial organ, the Pilot, proba-¦bly from ths pen of Dr.Litchfield himself, and what does it amount to?\u2018'He came into Canada, bringing with him certificates trom the most eminent medical practitioners, as well of England as of the United States, proving that he had much practical acquaintance with the treatment ot the insane, to the study of which he had ¦given much time and attention.The consequence was, bis appointment.\u201d The value oi such documents are very easily estimated.We never knew any one whose friends wanted to get rid of him, who was not welcome to as many bushels of certificates as he chose to carry away with him.We are far from saying that these documents, whatever they ate, overrate the Doctoi\u2019s acquirements ; but jve do say they furnish no proof of them.The best proof of esteem fur a profesHonal gentle nan of middle age is to employ him, not to hand over his valuable services to others.The Province has not sent to England or to the United States and there sought out a medical man in large practice, or a man filling some responsible public trust, whom it has induced to resign fair prospects at home by higher advantages held out here.Barring the certificates, all the public can know of the Doctor is, that his profession did not support him sufficiently well to prevent him, 'long after the time when men choose their professions, from taking up with another in which be showed very small tokens of probable success.These are not the marks of eminence which should be held to justify the Government in overlooking the claim of all the medical talent in the country, in favor of a resident of a twelve-month.We are no spoaters in favour ot home-bred productions.If an emin nt mao is wanted, we would get one publicly kown to be eminent, from any part of the world where he is to he found.Bat when we «an put ap with a professional man, who has not obtained SASCess enough to make it worth while to continue in his profession, we can find plenty even of young men among ourselves, who, in spite of all certificates, give more practical proof of fitness.The Pilot says that Dr.Litchfield\u2019s \u2022appointment was the consequence of his certificates*\u2014we believe the public will understand them to be the consequence of his articles.Without politio.il passions, or prejudices, or principles, or knowledge, he came here ready to write for or against any party, any politics, or any individuals, to please the ministry of the day.And for this pitiful, conscienceless service he has got his reward in a sinecure.Whether this mede of distributing patronage either adds to the public .confidence in the ministry or in the ministerial organs is yet to be seen.Not only the public, .but that respectable part of the public, .the medical profession, should, we think, have something do say on .this matter.the country as unwise, or as opposed to the best interests of the community at large.4.\tResolved,\u2014That, as this House has neither opposed the popular sentiment in the measures it has affirmed, nor in those which it has rejected, or amended, it is difficult for the Legislative Council to conjecture in what respect it has failed to fulfil the end for which it was established, or how a change of its Constitution ofthe nature proposed can render it more efficient as a means of checking hasty or unwise Legislation.5.\tResolved,\u2014That it is the opinion of this House, that in no Country enjoying the advantages of Representative Institution, can a_better illustration be afforded than that which is supplied by .the recent history of Canada, of the smooth and harmonious working of all the Estates of Government, and when it is remembered that the Constitution of 1840 imposed on Parliament a most delicate and difficult duty, viz.: the knitting together of separate interests, the impartial Government of two distinct races, and the allaying of animosities fostered by jealousy and irritated by collision, this House cannot forbear the expression of extreme concern, that a system so temperate in its action, and so fruitful in satisfactory results, should either be lightly esteemed or co\u2019dly cherished.6.\tResolved, \u2014That the^unexampled prosperity and progress ofthe Province in wealth and consideration may be ascribed not only to the prudent and sagacious character of its rulers, but also to the wise and temperate nature of the Institutions, and while this House as a co-ordinate Branch of the Legislature, may fairly claim its proportionate share of credit and honour in having assisted to bring about this desirable condition of things, it may also as fairly express its concern that this period ofpolitica contentment and general prosperity, should have been chosen for initiating a measure, which, while ^ it encroaches ou the Prerogative of the Sovereign, and casts a reproach on the membe.s of this House, is confessedly an experiment of a very doubtful character, uncalled for by the exigencies of the State, and unsolicited by the voice of the people.1.Resolved,- -That while the present bill seems neither to have resulted from the sense of experience or the voice of complaint, still, with a view-to meet an exigency rather than correct a wrong, this House is of the opinion, that it would secure the independence of the Legislative Council, protect it against undue interference ou the part of the Executive Government, and guard it against violent political feeling, were the number established by Act of Parliament at sixty members.This number to be filled up as vacancies may occur within a period of not less than six months after the occurrence of such vacancy.8.Resolved,\u2014That as the subject of a union of the whole of the British North American Provinces, has for years occupied the public attention it would manifestly be unwise to complicate future arrangements by a change in the Constitution of one of those Provinces, which has not been sought for, and which this House believes, would not be acceptable to the others.It is therefore the opinion of this Council, that any proceedings on the subject at the present juncture, would be premature, unwise, and inexpedient.TfflS Argentsujl

Mayor.The following, we understand to be a eorreot version of the matter; The Water Committee is composed of seven members, only four (a bare quo-îum) were present at the last meeting on Monday.Thtee, of the four present, refused to pay the current monthly estimate.As this step amounted to a breach of the contract, which would have the effect of stopping the work, and was the act of a minority of the whole Water Committee, the Mayor promptly give an order far the payment of the estimate, which order was countersigned by three members of the Water Committee, and would have been signed by the fourth ( ha Chairman) had he been in the city.It is slated in the London journals that the wines used at the civic feasts, in honor of Louis Napoleon, included Johauisberg of 1822, Champagne oi 1825,

respectable and intelligent Chris-tain Jews, many of whom reside in New York City and places contiguous to it; and whereas, it is the firm belief of many of these Christian Jews, that the present signs of the times are now such as call upon them to abandon their now isolated position, and organize an association consisting of sincere and long tried converts having for its object the promotion of the spiritual interest of its members, the relief of those of their brethren, who, for confessing Christ, are suffering want and distress ; the stirring up of th ! house of Israel, and the arousing of the Christian Church, to more earnest prayer and increased effort for the salvation of Judah ; and whereas, the annual meeting and public testi-niouy of such a body of witnesses to the Mesria-ship of Jesus and the setting aside by them of all the sectarian formulas of the present day, knowing nothing among themselves save Jesus, their common Redeemer, and cherishing love to all that may bear his image, by whatever name they may be called, would lead many of our brethren to examine the religion we profess ; be it Rasolvod, Ac.We beg to call the attention of the merchants, insurers and

public.To the Honorable The Legislative Assembly of the Province of Canada, in Provincial Parliament assembled : the humble petition of the undersigned proprietors OF SEIGNIORIES IN LOWER CANADA, Sheweth; That Your Petitioners have just learned with extreme astonishment, that there is presently pending before The Honorable the Legislative Assembly of this Province, a certain Bill, intituled, \u201c An Act to amend the Seignoral.Act of 1854,\u201d whereby, (among other things,) it is proposed to cut off all appeal from the decisions of the Special Court by the said Act constituted ; to abolish Lodset Fentes immediately, without previous or sufficient indemnity to Your Petitioners therefor ; and to declare the Schedules contemplated under the said Act, when completed, to be absolutely final, and unimpeachable even for error or defect of any kind whatsoever.That Your Petitioners, from their confidence that the Parliament of the Province cannot seriously entertain any proposal for the Amendment in any important particular of the said Act, during the present Session, as being that during which the same was passed, have not brought and do not now bring under the notico of Your Honorable House, their objections to much of what has been enacted, or left un-enacted by the said Act ; but they are unable to address Your Honorable House on the subject, without at le st adverting to the unprecedented restriction put upon their right to dispose of their ungranted Lands by the 14th Section of the said Act,\u2014to the hardship and injustice towards them, of the extraordinary litigation as to rights never heretofore in question, whereto they are subjected by the 16th Section, to the limitation thereby set to their common Law right of Appeal, with reference to such litigation ; and to the absence therefrom of all proper provision for enforcing upon the Commissioners, Experts, and others, acting in the preparation of the Schedules, a due observance of the Judgments of the Special Court, and of Law ; as being all matters which urgently require amendment in Your Petitioners favour, whenever the subject of the amendment of the said Act shall be seriously in question.That the said Bill, instead of so amending the said Act, proposes to render it in several respects far more objectionoble.That, as regards the said litigation, the same is now and for some past has been, by reason of the publication of the Questions of Her Majesty\u2019s Attorney General, a litigation actually pending, and wherein the Crown, at the instance of the Provincial Parliament, is in effect a plaintiff ; and Your Petitioners are, in effect, under summons as Defendants ; and that it must be destructive of all confidence in law of public faith, ifafterinstituting such litigation, oppresive and unprecedented moreover as such matters must be felt to be, the Crown could be made to lend itself to a procedure for so fatal a change in the Constitution of the Courts seized thereof, as is involved in the taking away from Your Petitioners of their right of Appeal\u201d to the higher of such Courts, solemnly guaranteed to them by the said Act.That, even independently of this consideration of public faith, Your Petitioners are entitled to insist upon their right to such an Appeal,-not merely as a matter of public and common Law, but also, upon the ground that it is contrary to all principle that such grave questions should be decided summarily and without pleading or written issue, and without Appeal, by any Court whatever, no matter how unexceptionably constituted, and that the Judicial Committee of Her Majesty's Privy Council, besides being by Law, the Court of Ultimate Jurisdiction as to all grave questions of Law here arising, is moreover, the oply Court whose members can be said to be necessarily altogether free from personal interest or b'as in respect of such questions.That in reference to the proposed immediate abolition of tods et ven'es, your petitioners must also, most emphatically, repeat their respectful demand, heretofore, on more than one occasion, laid before Parliament, that they be not abridged of any of their rights, until after the amount of the indemnity of right due to them therefor shall have been fairly ascertained, and either paid or unexceptionably secured to them.That the proposed enactment tending to exclude all manner of complaint by reason of the informality, error, or defect, in respect of the said schedules, is one which could not fail, were it passed into law, to work the grossest injustice, and in fact would subject all parties to the utmost amount of wrong and injury from the uncontrolled and irresponsible action of the many parties concerned in the making up of such schedules ; and that in any amendment to be made of the said act, it is, on the contrary, imperatively necessary to provide for placing all such parties under the efficient and prompt control of the regular courts of law, as touching such their action in the premises.Wherefore, your petitioners confidently trusting in the honor and sense of justice as well of the Parliament of this Province as of the.Imperial Crown, respectfully, but most earnestly pray the favorable consideration of your honorable House in the premises, and that no such clauses or provisions, and no clauses or provisions whatsoever adverse to your petitioners\u2019 rights be suffered by your honorable house to form part of any bill, now or hereafter to be passed by your honorable House, for the amendment of the said act.And your petitioners, as in duty bound, will ever pray.T.EDMUND CAMPBELL, J.PANGMAN, L.PAPINEAU, J.WURTELE, Montreal Seigniorial Committee L.\tA.DESSAULLES, G.C.DESSAULLES, parL.A.DESSAULLES,

deceased then came behind me ; he told Hannahan that the Priest had brought him home, and that he ought to have remained there ; Hannahan then grasped the deceased around the waist ; Boulger then came up and made a blow at deceased ; thought he only struck him ; did not think he had a weapon ; when Boulger made this blow, deceased and Hannahan fell to the ground ; Boulger then made another blow at deceased ; did hot see a knife in Boulgerishand ; l then carried deceased by placing my hands under bis arms to the hay scales ; Hannahan all the while holding on and pounding deceased; I got deceased on his feet but he fell in my arms exclaiming \u201c I\u2019m murdered amongst you ;\u201d Michael Murphy joined me in the mean time ; we then carried deceased to Craig\u2019s door ; I did not think he was dead until a light was brought, when I saw the blood pouring down his legs on the sidewalk -, I went back and asked Hannahan if he done it; he said that it was Boulger who done it ; I searched him for a knife but he had none; the prisoner Boulger asked witness how close he was to him at the time of the scuffle ; witness, answered about 4 yards ; witness told Coroner that he had been fighting with Hannahan previous to the murder.Michael Murphy corroborated the evidence of Noble, and further said, that Mr.Kelly, the Roman Catholic Priest, had parted Noble and Hannahan, one of the prisoners, before the murder was committed and made them go home.After the Priest went home, witness with deceased, and one or two others were going home, when some one proposed going somewhere and having a glass of beer, Witness said, \u201ccome down to Wilson\u2019s and I will treat.\u201d Some one said, \u201c let us go to Craig\u2019s.\u201d We then went around another street to avoid Mr.Kelly\u2019s house, fearing that he might suppose they were trying to get up another fight.When they got to Craig's they could not get in, they heard a noise near the hay-scales, when deceased sai^ that he thought they were fighting, and proposed to witness to go over with him and see if they could not separate them.They accordingly went, and on deceased speaking to them, advising them to be quiet, they pounced upon him as before stated by Noble.Mrs.John Wilson was then called and testified as follows : I live in the house with Bulger, on the fiat above ; was in bed at the time of the murder ; heard prisoner Bulger come in and ask for an axe ; heard him lay an axe at the door and say that it any one came in he would take their life.Margaret Cook, Jane Cook and Harriet Moles, were then separately called and testified to hearing the noise and seeing a scuffle, but coul\u2019d not say anything particularly bearing on the murder.John McDowell being then called, took oath that he has seen Bulger carry a dirk knife ; asked him why he carried such a knife, said he carried it to stick him or the like of him ; supposed, however, that he was in jest.George Huddleston and Nelson Gleason were then sworn.Live opposite where the murder was committed ; were looking from their window\u2019s but could not distinguish anything more than a scuffle.Another witness was called, who swore that he saw Bulger have a dirk knife last Friday, with a blade about four inches long, sharp point, and edge on both sides.Dr Garvey was then sworn, made «.post mortem examination ; found an external wound on the left breast about an inch and half below the nipple ; the incision was about IJ inches wide ; found a wound in the abdomen, making on the surface a cut about 4 inches wide and very deep ; the wound in the breast, which penetrated the heart, was sufficientto produce death instantly.One or two other witnesses were called, butas their evidence did not throw any more light on the subject, we consider it useless to occupy space with their testimony.The Coroner then read the law to the jury, explainingthe difference between murder, manslaughter, and homicide, after which the jury retired.After an absence of twenty minutes they again cameinto Court withthefol-lowing verdict: We find that the late Bradford came to his death by wounds inflicted some by sharp instrument in the hands of Moses Boulger, assisted by Gilbert Hannahan.\u201d of aur military system which bave s° s'Sna ly broken down, until at last a Government bas oefn formed which, so far from possessing the confidence and commanding the respec.ot tne liberal party, to whom it must look for saPP\u201d'> is the object of verv general and well-founded distrust.It is not that our Government has been formed at random and on no principle, it is the clear and distinct expression of a principle deservedly at this moment most-bdious to Parliament and the countrv\u2014of that very influence ot cliques, coteries, families, and genealogies, which we trace so clearly in all the disasters which have tarnished the\u2018lustre of our arms, neutralizeo the valor of our private soldiers, and converted our most brilliant successes into calamities more disastrous, aud almost as disgraceful, as aeteat.If we wanted a proof bow entirely the lan-suage which we continually hear from the Treasuiy Bench is at variance with the feelings and convictions of the nation, we know not to what we could refer our readers with more decisive effect than to the article on army reform in the last number of the Edinburgh Review, in that periodical, ftom its recent and only partially suspended connexion with the Chancellor of the Exchequer, we might expect, if anywhere, to find a support of the doctrines for the propagation of which our Government at present asserts to itself an absolute and exclusive monopoly.We might have supposed that in those sacred pages, at least, we should meet with nothing which the most susceptible Colonel might dread to hear, or the most touchy and irascible Lieutenant General dislike to read.We should have expected to find amplified and expanded, with every circumstance of rhetorical exaggeration, Lord Palmerston\u2019s celebrated catechism on merit, in which, like Falstaff on the congenial topic of honour, he succeeded in proving that merit had no existence, and consequently had no pretensions to be rewarded.We expected to find arguments to show that, the more departments a single subject was divided between, the more independent their heads, and the more arbitrary the divisions which separate them, the better, the more speedily, and the more correctly ihe public service would be carried on We expected to hear that education in the army was a mere absurdity, and that Ensign Northing-ton was the tine type of the modern British soldier.We need say no more of our expectations, because this article in the Edinburgh Review has most agreeably and most decidedly disappointed them ali.It bears marks of having been toned down in some places to suit the Ministerial taste, but the fire which runs through it is slaked, not quenched.There is, indeed, at -.he commencement something too much of an attempt to refer everything that has gone wrong in the army to a faulty system, as if the system could have existed iu its present exquisite complication of absurdity, without the criminal negligence of men who have suffered such a monster to grow up under their eyes, or the connivance of others, who in progress to insure success io our arms, or even to avert great national calamities induces me again to address you, iu the hope that the keen perception of the conductors of the press may induce them to reflect on the improbability,of my persevering to intrude on the attention of a series of authorities plans which are impracticable or absurd ; or, if such they are, the still greater improbability of silence having been maintained, not as regards their nature (as honour required,) but as to their practicability and efficiency\u2014 whereon full freedom was given to decide and pronounce.Why, Sir, did the commission appointed by the Admiralty (which is now held to supersede the necessity of further inquiry) avoid giving a decision on the plans submitted to them instead of reporting on their \u201c expediency,\u201d which was a consideration for the Cabinet Council?Was it from a belief that my plans would equally overthrow every fortification we possess, without taking into consideration, as regards our own country, that superior naval force is requisite to carry the enterprise into execution, although snch force need never be brought into action, unless the enemy offers battle, which formerly was all that could have been desired.Or did the commission\u2014but the question is too important to be appended.Did the -commission prospectively anticipate the absence of such superiority?Were they aware that the circumstances under which our foreign trade is carried on had driven 80,000 British seamen into the commerce of the United States ! Were they aware that the further effect of throwing open our coasting trade to all nations is forcing our hardy tars from that last sonree of maintenance\u2014the Newfoundland and South Sea fisheries being gone ?Did the commission anticipate (that with which I am sure the public are unacquainted) the probability of a Foreign Naval Enlistment Bill, for the outfit of the next fleet that should be attempted to be equipped ?As a substitute for the expatriation of our defenders, did the commission despair of seeing the duties taken off timber, hemp, and all other exactions removed which disable our shipowners from competition with other nations, while giving adequate wages to their seamen.I am, Sir, Your obliged and obedient servant, Dundonald.London, April 20th.TJIADE AND COMMERCE.Evils of Present System of Klour Inspection in A\u2019evv York.(From the N.F.Journal of Commerce, May 17.)

the deceased has a young wife and an infant child about three weeks old, Bradford was an Orangeman, but we learn that be was ,a very quiet unobtrusive man.His remains were yesterday followed to the grave by a large body of Orangemen, from the different divisions in the United Counties, together with a large number of respectable townsmen.JTie names of the jury -were then_ caijed, each of whom answered to their names in the iollow-ing order,\u2014 William Stuart, Foreman; Luke Leatch, Abel Cole, Amos Abbott, Thomas Bennett, John Greene, Richard Hazlewood, Thomas B.HUlyard, Simon Kerr, John Stacey, John B.Glassford, J.Kearnes, Robert Stewart, W.J.Milieu.The Coroner then explained to Moses Boulger, ih*t Ré bad been arraigned on the charge of causing the deat-b .of Hugh Bradford, and asked him if he had any i hing .to say.He answered \u201cNot Guilty, don\u2019t know the man.\u201d Gilbert Hannahan was then asked if he had anything to say, to which he made answer \u201c I know nothing abopk it.\" James Noble was then called and testified as follows : I was coming from Mr.Craig\u2019s on last Saturday night about 12 o\u2019clock ; I was alone ; I heard a cheer from two men ; they called for the two bait Orangsmen in town, and said th«y were tha Since writing the above we have seen the jailor, Mr.Leggo, who made us acquainted with the following facts.On Monday, after the prsion-ers had been put into their respective cells, Stephen Beach, constable, informed him that he had observed something handed to prisoner Hannahan, while in the criminal box, and advised him to keep a sharp look out.Mr.Leggo then informed the High Constable, James Kincaide, when they both went to the cell of Hannahan, and on searching him found a large dirk-knife in his pocket, and 10s.8d.in money.Mr.Leggo is quite positive that Hannahan had neither knife or money when taken from his cell to the Court Housé and it is evident that the knife and money were given the prisoner while standing in the criminal box, by some villanous fiend, the former to be used on Mr.Leggo to effect his escape, on his escaping the money would be very convenient for him to make good his removal from town.We.trust that the individual who handed the prisoner the dirk will be discovered, and that he may be punished to the utmost extent of the law.A subscription has been raised for the widow of Hugh Bradford, amounting to about £25.Right.TmiTED STATES.Liquqr Law in Connecticut.\u2014The following is the reply of Governor Minor, of Connecticut, to an invitation to attend the Massachusetts State Temperance Convention :\u2014 Hartford, May 8, 1855.R.W.Williams, Esq : Dsar Sir,\u2014I have the honor to acknowledge the receipt of yours of the 4th instant, which was received by me on my return to-day, at 1, o\u2019clock, P.M.1 regret that its earlier receipt has not enabled me to reply in season for your meeting to-day.The practical operation of the prohibitory law in our State has been such, that it has drawn u> its support very many who have hitherto opposed it; and I believe that if the question of its repeal could be, at this time, directly submitted to the people of this State, a large majority would be found in favor of the law.Its effects have been a dimuuition of crime and the alleviations of poverty and misery.Its repeal I should regard as detrimental to the best interests of our State and tha cause of humanity.I remain, respectfully, yours, Wm.T.Minos.The Liquor Law in Boston.\u2014The Boston Courier has the following :\u2014 We understand that the importers and venders of wines and spirits, the proprietors of hotels, and other persons interested, have not been at all inactive since the passage of this law, which they justly regard as unconstitutional and illegal\u2014as an invasion of their rights of property and rights of trade ; and that they have secured competent counsel for all cases which may arise under its provisions, and will finally test the question before the Supreme Court of the United States.The Boston (Maine Law) Telegraph says it has no doubt but the liquor dealers have resolved to defend themselves against prosecutions, and adds :\u2014 \u201c An attempt will be made to enforce the law in Boston ; it may be violently resisted, but we do not believe it.There are good citizens enough in this city who are determined to stand by the authorities and all others who may assist in this humane work.\u201d No Liquor to be Transported by way of Northern Railroad.\u2014The Albany Argus says, the subjoined letter from the President of the Rutland and Burlington, and Cheshire Railroad Companies, has been received by George H.Tha-cher, Esq., President of the Albany Northern Railroad, and handed to us by that gentleman for publication.As these roads form a part of the Northern route to Boston, it will be seen that neither beer nor any spirituous liquor can be thus transported to Massachasetts :\u2014 Boston, May 14, 1855.Geo.H.Tbachkr, Esq , President Albany Northern Railroad Company : Dear Sir :\u2014The Liquor Law of Massachusetts goes into operation on the 20th of tha present month.The law is very rigid ; therefore, on and after the 20th day of the present month we must decline receiving any great or small beer, alcohol, or liquors of any kind.I therefore wish you to give the above notice to Mr.Clark, that we shall be relieved from complaints, or vexation by complaints, from those men that are now engaged to make all complaints for violation of our law.\tRespectfully, Thomas Thacker.The Surplus Laboring Population.\u2014A correspondent of the Rochester American, who claims to be altogether disinterested, writes at length, from Marquette county, Wisconsin, urging the poorer classes in Eastern cities to remove to the West.He says :\u2014 \u201c I have read, with painful feelings, accounts of the distress and sufferings among the poor, during the past winter, in some of the eastern cities, and often wondered why they should huddle together in such swarms, as to reduce the price of labor to actual starvation rates, while there is a door in the West, open to laijQr, prosperity and independence.\u201d \u201c Labor commands from $12 to $t8 per month ; and last harvest as high as $3 per day was paid for help, and yet people are starving at the East for want of employment.If they knew of the advantages of our country, and would still remain in indolsnce antj inactivity, I would say, let them starve.Bat, if they do not know of it, publish the facts to them as they are, and let them know there is a land where the comforts of life go hand in hand with labor.\" The Real Seat and Nature or (he Disease.(From the London Times, April 21 ) It really seems as if the people of this country were divided into two camps\u2014those who do, and those who do not, understand the real nature of the disorders that afflict us those who are, and those who are not, prepared to administer adequate and efficient remedies.In the first class, we believe, we count all our fellow-citizen?, in the latter Her Majesty\u2019s present advisers.Never, surely, was an opportunity more brilliant than that which smiled upon Lord Palmerston, when he was called upon, no less by the voice of his Queen than by the favor of his fellow-countrymen, to assutae the reins of office.Endowed with a competent khoWledge of the routine of our War Departments', believed to be a sincere advocate for the vigorous prosecution of the war with Russia, standing as much m a rentrai position between hostile parties, and as little entangled with pledges and alliances as is possible for any statesman who has been for fifty years before the public, Lord Palmerston seemed the very man whose breath could inspire new life into the dry bones of onr worn-out military system, and bid it live anew in the health and vigor of other days.But the fair dawn was soon overcast with clouds.Appointment after appointment was made, each more distasteful than the other to those who had at heart the reconstruction of those departments and continuing its most injurious anomalies.' Something too much of blame also, we think, is attributed to Parliament for ill-judged parsimony in cutting down our military establishments in time ot peace.The truth is, and it is becoming more manifest every day, that it is not the amount of money voted, but ihe manner in which that money has been misapplied by those to whom this mighty trust has been conceded, which is the cause of the confusion and misery of which we have been witnesses.With these exceptions, we see little in the statements of the Edinburgh Review to which we can object, and very much which we are bound heartily to applaud.The complaint as to the total absence of anything calculated to develope or stimulate the indmtry ofthe army iu time of peace is well-founded, and the picture of regimental life ought to make those statesmen blush who have been lately telling us that our regimental system is all pertection, and that we have nothing to do but to contemplate it with admiring rever ence, without venturing by our profane touch to invade a single detail of its organization.Passing from the structure of regiments, the reviewer proceeds to remind us that the British army can never be what it should be until it is organized, not merely as a collection of battalions but with the appliances of a staff and commanding officers ot an army.Military education here asserts its claim to be considered, because the moment y ou regard our force as no longer a mere aggregate of regiments you are struck with the necessity of finding men whose abilities are equal to something more than that which seems to exhaust the ordinary staple of militaiy talent in this country\u2014the management of a company, or, at most, of a regiment And, finally, the reviewer calls attention to the absolute necessity of a re-division of our military departments, under one chief, and the reduction of the Horse Guards from a co-ordinate to a strictly subordinate and inferior position.There are few who will read this synopsis of the opinions of the Edinburgh Review who will not at once admit their justice, their practicability, and their expediency.Why is it that in the Government alone, which ought to be the leader and guide of the popular mind in this new and strange inquiry, we find nothing butexplodcd fallacies, a determined opposition to the spirit of free investigation, and a dogged adherence to everything which is antiquated and inefficient?II nothing else could move the country to take these mailers fairly in hand,\u2014if regret for the dead, compassion for Ihe living, remorse for the past, and apprehension for the future be unavail ing, surely a commercial nation might be in fluenced in some degree by the bare consider»' tion of expense.Who can read without astonish ment and indignation, that we have bought all this disgrace and disaster at no less a price than (orty-three millions ?Surely bungling has grown dearer than it used to be ; and, if failure be found so costly, no nation in the world is rich enough to afford success.Mister FHder.(From the London Times ) This Mr.Filder we have never seen described he may be a man of imposing presence, and there is nothing in the accounts of his position inconsistent with the most degrading ideas.So, when we are told that this plain Mr.Filder represented to Government that, for an army of 24,000 men, 12,000 horses were necessary, and was not allowed to get 6,000 ; when we are told that, instead of the thoroughly organized Land Transport in the French service, he had not a single vehicle or driver of his own on our arrival at Varna; when we are told the officers composing his staff in the Crimea had just come together from all parts ol the world, without a common understanding or mutual confidence; that he was by his position simply a storekeeper, so far as regards the stores of the Quartermaster-General ; that his depart ment was utterly overtasked ; that on the embarkation from Varna he was compelled to leave be-bind some thousand animals collected in Bulgaria, or just conveyed thither; that whenever an ammunition animal broke down, the contents of one of the few commissariat carts were turned out, and the cart filled with ammunition ; that immediately after the failure of our fire on the 17th October, he pressed Lord Raglan for supplies, and could not get his lordship to move for several weeks; that he failed in his attempt to ransack the shores of the Black Sea ; that as fast as he got horses they were killed by overwork and exposure, or stolen for want of soldiers to protect them; that an im mense quantity of his stores was ordered out of harbor without asking his leave, and kept there till they went to the bottom ; that on the 13th of November he wrote a letter intimating that all his stores and transports would be of no avail, if the road to the camp were not kept in repair, which it nevertheless was not; that when he sent the Jason, one of the two steamers on which he had to depend for supplies, to Constantinople, and expected it back in three or four dajsj Admiral Boxer let the captain keep it there on some frivolous pretence for three weeks; that the forwarding of the French soldiers from the Bosphorus, or any other object, was considered before tbe sending of supplies to the British Commissariat ; that no magazines of any kind were established at the camp, and scarcely any at Balaklava.When we are told all this, it seems the most natural result possible, the very thing that was to be expected from the humble ministration of plain Mr.FBder, with his insufficient staff of assistants hastily collected from all parts of the world, and eked out with Clerks from the Treasury.We have only to imagine one of the elderly gentlemen who come in every day by \u2019bus from Islington to Somerset-house, or the Bank, suddenly posted in a little office, surrounded by big guns, big ships, big generals, big admirals, and everything on the most blustering scale, and we are prepared for a career of any conceivable inefficiency.We can only say that, considering an army must be fed, and the soldier is particularly dependent on solid food for the display of his peculiar qualities ; and considering, too, that horses must be fed, and, above all, the horses that carry the British Dragoons, there ought either to be no such person as this plain, insignificant, much snubbed, much disregarded Mr.Filder, and the Commander-in-chief ought to be immediately responsible for the feeding of his army, or Mr.Filder ought to be a greater man, and better prepared for the struggle with the big people around him.He ought to be General Filder, or Lord Filder, or the Hon.Mr.Filder, at least, and he ought to have a suitable staff of the quality that inspires confidence and respect in tbe British mind.There really is something in that remarkable observation of Lord Palmerston, that the Commissariat is not an aristocratic service, and has broken down.It quite explains itself that Mr.Filder should find his horses left behind, his carts seized for ammunition, his ships laid up at Constantinople, bis hints about roads and depots set at nought, his winter supplies sent to the bottom of the Black Sea, and his name vilified by everybody.But, then, it certainly is rather unfortunate that the whole British army, and all the mighty interests and issues above enumerated, should depend on plain Mr.Filder.Tne two or three thousand officers in the Crimea, for their own sakes, had better look more carefully to the position of the man on whom they depend for their lives.It must go hard with them if they damage the credit ot their purveyor.There is nobody, not even Lord Raglan hiniseif, whom they are mol's interested in supporting and aiding in every possible way.If they could make him a bead and shoulders taller than the rest of the army, if they could give him the voice of Stentor, the bands of Briareus, the feet of Achilles, the eye of Lyncens, and the wings of Pegasus, so much the better for them, for they and their horses will be better fed, and will thereby be enabled to fight better.A s they have not these preternatural gifts at their disposai, they will consult their own interests by investing the Commissariat with what powers they cau, and raising it to an equality m rank and dignity with the other branches of the service.whose brand was conclusive as to its weight and quality.Many abuses bad become connected with this system of forced inspection, and at the date last mentioned, it was abolished, and the whole matter of determining the quality of flour left to such an arrangement as might be made between buyer and seller.A large majority of the trade united in a resolution to continue the inspection of flour as a matter of convenience to themselves, and thus the brand of the New York Association had nearly as much authority as if its organization had been recognized by Act of Legislature.There were some minor differences among them at first, but these were soon settled.As long as these inspectors all acted together, the standard of flour was well maintained; the inspector receiving the same for examining the flour, no matter what was his conclusion in regard to the quality.At length there was a split among the inspectors, and the moment that rivalry began, the standard deteriorated.When a receiver of flour found that an invoice was too poor to meet the standard of the Association, he could still submit it to a rivol inspection.If the flour were so near the standard quality as to make its acceptance or rejection a nice question, the temptation would be great to accept it, and thus to secure the business of the applicant.We know that we shall be met here, on the part of each of the Inspectors, with a prompt assertion that he was not the first to lower the standard, and we will not therefore attempt to decide who is to bear the blame of the first step.One thing, however, all who deal in flour are ready to admit, and that is, that the standard has so far receded that the brand is not decisive in regard to its quality, and that the value of the inspection is now confined chiefiy to the determining of the relative quality of the particular invoice.We hazard nothing in saying that much of the State flour now branded as superfine No.1, would not have been called good fine middlings, five years ago.Once, standard \u201c superfine\u201d State or Western flour, was an article fit for family consumption ; now, even the low grades of \u201c extras\u201d are not sufficiently good for a respectable family.It is not that our taste is more fastidious, but because the staudard has so deteriorated.This is easily seen from the fact that flour received from Baltimore, and graded there as below superfine, will pass here for standard ; and flour shipped hence to Baltimore, sometime since, with the brand of \u201csuperfine\u201d upon it, was all condemned in that market.New York is now in the humiliating position of having the lowest standard for flour in the world.This port, which is the grand emporium of commerce for the American Continent, and ought to give laws in commercial matters to all the other ports and markets in the country, has a standard of flour inspection which is deserved by ridiculedby all of her own merchants having anything to do with the flour trade.\t.The evils growing out of this are too obvious to need recapitulation here.There is one, however, which is particularly annoying to conscientious merchants.An order is received from Liverpool for 5,000 bris, standard State flour, to be executed within a certain limit.The Commission Merchant receiving the order, if a judge of the article, knows that the trash offering as standard, and which is the best that could be bought at the price to which the order is limited, is not such flour as his correspondent needs, although it is classed as such by the Inspector, and, therefore, he will not send it.A rival, who has a less nice sense of honor, buys by the Inspector\u2019s brand, and thus defrauds his correspondent, while he obtains the reputation of being a more able merchant.The receivers of flour, many ot them, know that the brand placed upon their flour frequently misrepresents tha quality, but the^*excuse themselves by denying their obligation to conform to a higher standard than is used by their neighbours.There is, however, no such universal depreciation as this would seem to imply.The old millers who have obtained a high reputation for particular brands, some of them still adhere to their original standard, and keep up the quality of their brand.These exceptions make the grades of flour exceedingly irregular, while it gives opportunity for the unscrupulous and designing to fitece the poor and ignorant.A large part of the inspection of flour is now merely \u201c boring and plugging,\u201d the examination being evidently a farce.This applies not only to quality, but to weight also, and very few invoices of flour will now hold out 196 pounds, exclusive of the barrel.Between false brands of quality, and false tares misrepresenting the weight of the barrel, the buyer of flour must be very shrewd not to be cheated.The great scarcity of flour at the seaboard, with the high price it has commanded during the past year, has greatly accelerated the depreciation in tbe standard, while it has led to all sorts of impositions upon the public.Some flour branded \u201c Extra,\" and sold as such for family consumption, has been very little better than the grade formerly sold for \u201c feed.\u201d As an extreme illustration of this looseness of inspection, we may mention an instance whioh occurred within a few days, where an inspector was called to examine an invoice of flour, and happened on the wrong side of the dock, bored and plugged, and branded \u201csuperfine,\u201d a lot of\u2014oatmeal! It is but just to say, that many of those employed as Inspectors are themselves disgusted with this state of things, but know not how to struggle against it.They endeavor to perform their individual duty faithfully, except that they cannot maintain the old standards with the current so strongly against them.A large majority of the merchants, including even those receivers who have followed the declining standard, express themselves very strongly in favor of a radical change, and are willing to unite in any feasible plan to effect it.Revolutions never go backwards, and a return to the old system of government inspection in not feasible and is much less desirable.Any change to be permanent must have the consent of the great body ol the trade, and we believe that the way is at last open to bring about this result.Tbe Corn Exchange now numbers in its list of Subscribers about 800 members, including all houses of any importance engaged in the flour trade.This Association has been instrumental in effecting reforms quite as great as the one proposed, and we see no le ison why it should not grapple with tbe evil under notice.The first thing to do is the selection of a standard.A Committee ofthe Corn Exchange could do this in a few hours to tbe satisfaction of the whole trade.The details of the new system might then easily be arranged.Either the inspectors might be named by the Cora Exchange ; or, if it were safe, the inspection left open to all who would conform to the standard.An agreement on the part of the Exchange to recognize no inspection which did not conform to the regulations adopted, would be all that is required to enforce the adoption of its standard.This reform should begin at once ; onr merchants owe it to themselves, and to the honor of their city, no longer to tolerate such a crying nuisance, IMPORTS.Per BANNOCKBURN, A.Bruce master, from Liverpool, to Edmonstone, Allan & Oo.Ferrior & co 7 kgs 29 cks 3 bis 5 cases 146 brs 794 bdls iron ;
