Mr.KniTon,\u2014Much has been said and written within the last tew years concerning one of the most important subjects that bas ever occupied the attention of our citizens nnd legislature.I allude to the military defence of the Province.Indre»! the importance of this subject is beginning t.i be felt in Britain, aud only a ft*w weeks ago a Circular was transmitted to the Governors of the respective dependencies of the cm p ir«-, calling on them to make every suitable p reparation tor their protection, from even tbo probability of war or civil commotion ; thus plainly indicating to our people tliat the best way to ,«reserve peace is to be prepared for war.Our Colonial Gov-I eminent is already sensible of this truth, and a few years ago the Militia Act was nasse»!, by which wc have obtained n f«»rco of about five thuusand militia volunteers scattered over the Province.A few armories have Ixsan built, but no forts, and the bulk of our militia, termed the sedentary militia, exists, ns every one knows, merely on the books of the Adjutant General ; viewed in the light of a military force to which we could look iu case of need, it hat no erittenre whatever.In this p«»sition thc.i we ftml ourselves at present, while our mition is engage»! in barras-sing wars in the East, which require the presence of n large pnrthm of the naval anil military lorces of England, and in the West nnd nearer home it is to be tanred that there arc many who are glad at our trouble, and would rcjidce to see us vanquished nnd humbled.Seeing this, it certainly behove* us, as the circular says, to mak».* suitable nnd reasonable preparations, so that if war or civil Commotion arise (which God forbtil) we may l*c ready for any emergency.Within the inst few months two regiments of tbe lino have been withdrawn from B.N.America, nml we cannot tell how long the small force still remaining may be stationed here.It is true wc have a few militia volunteers who turnout no«v nnd then, but what are they?As a writer remarked n short time ago 44 our Volunteer l;orrc is like a rotten stick that will break the first time wc lean upon it\u2019\u2019.Volunteer companies, composed for tho m»»st part of mechanics, in n country like fteunda, mutt necessarily partake to some degree of party spirit, so utterly at variance with n proper maintenance of discipline, and in n civil tumult woubl be fourni very difficult to handle to advantage; nnd a spirit of independence and nonchalance exists among tiic men not to be found or tolerated among regulars.The volunteer companies were formed during the war w ith Russia, nnd as the excitement and novelty is wearing oil', the muster rolls of many of the compnnies are becoming 44 small by degrees and beautifully less.\u201d.It ccrtaiuly appears unjust to expect tbe men to purchase their kit nml losceo much of their time for the small amount of pay which they receive.I»Pt the Government give the volunteers a free kit.Let the companies he or«lercd to muster for a day's drill nnd inspection once n month, for which they sho'iM receive pay, nnd thoifgli last not lenst, let the commissions be given to gentlemen worthy of holding them, nud our volunteer force shall soon he all that wc could desire.\t» a The ofluora of the sedentary militia should he obliged to furnish themselves w ith uniforms and turn out their nun two or three times a year, on such days nnd nt such hours ns would least interfere with business.A little Jwhole-some discrimination might nlso be used in granting coinmissious to the officers of the sedentary militia.So m»ich for the militia, bnt what wc most require would he about two thousand regulars to bo raised/or service in the Province.Nu-mernu* offers have alrcatly been made to raise troops in ('anada, let us turn this chivalrous feeling to some good account, nnd on the assembling «ffiterliament, should uo motion have lie en previously taken in th\" tunttcr.lei tho attention of the Government be cnllrd to this important subject, the well understood wish of the people.On account of the Immense number of men out of employment this winter, the raising of these troops would he a blessing l«> the rmititry, and there is not the slightest doubt lhal meo enn he obtained, for besides onr own population numbers of British subject* would eome from the United «State* to enlist, nnd, instead of nnnnnlly braving the Province in numbers, the young mm of out agricultural dittrict* would find an honorable employment in the «ervice of their country.The force thus embdicd would nut only be a small army rea»ly fot service during war, bnt would prove Invaluable during pence in quelling riot* and performing the arduous police duties, which I am happy la say we Uanadiam seldom have occasion for.It ia well known that the Imperial authorities do not wish tbe regular* to be employed In thoso civil inaticra, and very properly so.The Imperial Gnvernmcul would assist »is very materially in raising and maintaining those troops, by handing n* over military stores, gun», tents, nuunnuilion, and other m iterielt and would also fiirtteh ui with offl- «>«-cs properly qualifie»! to drill and instruct eur fbree.The Militia Act will sxpire on tbfl 1st of July next, aud the people of Canada will _\t, .\t,,\tex pool th»> GcYt-rnmert next session to attend Gnnmta I would «ay a (n thll requirement, and frame such an Acta# will ensure onrsafbty In cose of war by funking full and pro|ier preparations for our protection \u2022a lime of pence.Yours Ac., A Youxa Citizrx.Qusbec, 3rd Dec., 18&L From tbe Boston Saturday Evening Gazette.A PERFUMED BREATH\u2014What lady or gentleman would remain umier the curse of a disagreeable breath, when using the 44 Bahu of a Thousand Flowers\u201d as a dcntrifice would not only render it sweet, but leave the teeth w hite as alabaster?Many persons do not kn«*w their breath is bad, nnd the subject is so delicate, their friends will never mention it.Pour a single drop of the 44 Bnlm \u2019 on your toothbrush and wash tbe teeth night and morning.A fifty cent buttle will last a year.A BEAUTIFUL COMPLEXION may easily be acquired by using the 44 Balm of a Thousand Flowers.\u201d It will remove tan, pimples and freckles from the skin, leaving it cf a soft nnd roseate hue.Wet a towel, j«our on two or three drops, aud wash the face night aud morning.HHAY1NQ MADE EASY.\u2014Wet your shaving brush in either warm or cold water, pour on two or three drops of44 Balm of n Thousand Flowers,\u201d rub tiie beard well and it will make a beautiful soft lather, much fac\u2019litaiing the operation of shaving.Price nnlv 50 cents.F&TRIDGB k CO.Proprietors of 44 Woodland Cream,\" For tale by all Druggists.Wholesale Agent for Qi Kr.cc, John Mrsaox.\u2014 Also for sale by Gen.Mt sgox A Co., Joskph Bowuts, G.G.Ardouix, aud J.E.Uuukc.Nov.13.1857.\tLot Faaav Uavi* VaorrsaLa Fai** Kiulkb\u2014Volcnta;-ly coaseinoiiomsly, an»!
