and when they at last arrived, it was too late.The fire was also put in another street, at some distance, to three fine houses occupied by Mr.Marin, an engineer, Mr.Portal and Mr.Lalaurette ; the first, who is a young ISuropean, escaped with his lady unhurt, after having had several shots fired at him: they {ust everything they had in the house.The scoundrels continued masters of the town daring all that night, running through the streets, threatening death and fire to the whites.They killed with pistol shot the elder son of Mr.Tour- niol, a young man about 22 years old, who was harmlessly standing on the p.rron of a friend\u2019s door, with his motlier near him, in whose arms he fell to breathe his last.The female population, white and coloured, were thrown into great alarm by the events of Monday night, and a large number of them, with many men, also fled en board the vessels in port, which were luckily numerous, about 28 or 30 inall.The larger ships received 200 or 300 each.Many have since returned on shore.Several families ave preparing to leave the island, and numbers have already quitted.Porro Rico\u2014lnother reported Insurrection.\u2014 Capt.Barnes, of the barque Ann Smith, which arrived here this morning from Memerara, says that Just before he lett, on the 3rd inst., it was reported that there had been an insurrection of the negroes in Guayana, Porto Rico, in the course oi which a number of persons were killed.\u2014(N.Y.Conunercial Adrertiser).From VucATAN\u2014 Havana, May 27.\u2014By a vessel arrived two days ago from Campeachy and Sissal, the most melancholy news has been received as to the state of that unhappy country.\u2018The treaty which hau been made with the Indians has been broken by them almost as soon as made, and they continue their slaughterous havoc as before, murdering the poor inhabitants wherever they find them.All the country people take refuge in Mareda and Campeachy, because they are safe no where else.It is heart-rending to read the distressing details which are published by the papers as to Yucatan, and all this might casily be remedied by only 3 or 4000 men, or even less, sent down to their aid.\u2014 The inhabitants look to aid froin the United States, and wish for nothing more than to be annexed to the Union.It were desirable that this should take place, and any assistance given would be highly repaid by taking possession vf Yucatan.It is by no means a poor country, as is generally described ; it produces excellent cotton, fine tobacco, (as good | as that grown in this land), hemp, (known under the name of Sissal hemp), indigo, and particularly dye woods of all descriptions.In the hands of the Americans it would amply repay any disbursement laid out upon it.1 hope that our government will turn its attention to it without loss of time.The Indians would implore merey as soon as a regular disciplined force was landed, becanse they are incapable of resistance, and can overawe ouly such poor devils as the people of Yucatan.\u2014(Cor.of the Charleston Courier).QUEBEC: SATURDAY, 1st JULY, 1848.ANAAAAA Neither the Iastern nor the Western mail of this morning Las brought anything of importance.The papers are principally filled with details of the news by the Britannia.In St.John (N.B.,) a public meeting was called by the mayor, on requisition, to remonstrate against the repeal of the navigation laws.The survey of the projected railway across the Isthmus, from St.John to Shediac, is going on successfully.In the United States Senate, on Tuesday, Mr.Niles reported a bill authorising the appropriation of certain portions of the public lands to Whitney's railway, from lake Michigan or the Mississippi to the Pacific.Our thanks are due to P.L.SIMMONDS, Esquire, London, for some numbers of his valuable Colonial Magazine and Foreign Miscellany, received by last mail.They contain many articles of interest in Canada, some of which we shall extract or notice when we have time and space, We are also indebted to J.Fire, Esq., of H.M, Customs, for a late Ayr paper from which we have made some selections for a future number of the Gazette, our space to-day being already occupied.The accounts of the crops in Scotland, as well as in the two sister kingdoms, are most favorable.\u2014_\u2014\u2014\u2014 We are sorry to learn that \"Thomas Tiern ey, whose SCIENTIFIC EXPEDITION.\u2014Severa) scientif tlemen from Boston and vicinity, AMOR rh Professor Agassiz, Mr.J, Eliot Cabot, Dr, Pal we Cambridge University, four students of he ot class, and several graduates from Boston, now or bers of the Law School, took their departing days since, on a tour of scientific explorati oe Superior.They have probably by this time ve ule the Sault of Ste.Marie, at the mouth of the lake ¢ +4 is their purpose to proceed upward by t} shore of the lake, and to return by t shore, and to be absent about ten weoks, \u2018The object is to make inquiries in all the branch Natural Ilistory, and to collect £pecimens il] re tive of these departments, \"There is reason to that their researches will be the means of valuable additions to our kuowledge of the resources of the extensive region which they to traverse.le norther he Southern Ustras believe making Natura] Propose ere WiscoNsIN.\u2014The Legislature of Wis now in session anl engaged in establishing a syste of laws for the State.The louse of Represent tives has appointed 25 standing committees, T ;

Loxe SAULT Rarip.\u2014Those who have travelled on |.the St.Lawrence are aware that between Dicken- con°s landing and Cornwall, a distance of from 12to 14 miles there is a long Rapid, called the Long Sault.This Rapid is divided Into two channels, by an Island in the centre.The channel on the south side being the one which has heretofore been descended by steamers, and other large craft passing down the river.Captain Maxwell, the enterprising commander of the mall steamer Gilderslecve, having some time ago hecoine impressed with an idea that the channel on the north side of the Island, was not only practicable for vessels of a large class, but that it was much safer, and easier of descent than the channel on the south side, made with much trouble, soundings and observations for the purpose of ascer- wining whether such was really the case.Having well satisfied himself in the matter, he (with Mr, Ha uilton\u2019s permission) made a descent down the north channel last Tuesday afternoon in the mail steamer Gildersleeve, The passage was magnificent.The grandewr and beauty of the Rapid far surpassing even those of the Rapids at the Cedars, the Cascades, or Lachine, Owing to the great rapidity of the current, the water is much rougher than on the south side of the [sland, but the channel is straighter, and, in every respect, hetter than the one heretofore | adopted, and there is little doubt that ere long the porth channel will be the one which the main traffic of the river will pass through, Great credit is due to Captain Maxwell for the ability and perseverance he has exhibited in exploring this new channel.The thanks (at last) of the country are due to him for his exertion and enter- rise, and the smallest tribute that can be paid to him is that the channel, which he has thus heen the first to prove is practicable for large vessels, should bear his name, and he called \u201c Maxwell\u2019s Channel.\u201d\u2014( Montreal Heraid,) We should imagine, from divers communications and other articles which we find in our contemporary the Min-ree, that the County of St, Maurice is in a pretty state of confusion in consequence of Mr, Papineau\u2019s proceedings.One communication states that Mr.Ilicher-Lafleche, a Magistrate, aud Judge of one of the Courts for the Trial of Small Causes, las, with several other persons, been arrested and brought before a brother Magistrate on a charge of riot.It seems that this person, with several others, went in the night to the house of a neighbour, opposed to him in politics, with the express inten~ tion of committing some act of violence j the neighbours came out of their houses on hearing the row, and a battle-royal ensued, ending in the defeat of Richer-Lafleche and his companions.This man, if these facts be true, ought to be struck off the roll cfthe Commission of the Peace.\u2014(Montreal Gaz).ConNTACKING.\u2014 We sometime ago had to notice the active conduct of E.Clarke, Esq., the igh Constable of St.Francis District, in the suppression of coining in the Townships.Yesterday he came to town with another batch of these worthies, named Kilbourn, Cross, Ilamilton and Ball.Ilaving been on the look out for some time past, Mr.Clark found htely in the woods a \u2018 bogus,\u201d an instrument for stamping the false coins to be thereafter circulated in the present dearth of more legitimate funds.\u2014 The bogus weighs about 1200 lbs., and has been seized.In the meantime, it led indirectly to the discovery of the present prisoners, in whose houses were found a complete set of half-dollar dies, with à machine for milling the edges, thirty-three Mex- iean dollars, eleven American dollars, about fifteen half dollars, all of base metal, fit for the purpose.We regret to add that Mr.Clarke had many ob- Hacles thrown in his way, while endeavouring to arrest these people, by the sympathy manifested by too large a portion of the inhabitants of the neighbourhood.All the prisoners were committed for trial.\u2014 Ib.DesrarcH.\u2014 The steamer Princess, Capt.Dnn- lop, arrived here on Tuesday evening from Quebec, with the brig Vivid, of London, having left the fame morning, proceeded to the canal, took in a full cargo, and left yesterday afternoon with the bark Columbine.\u2014 70.We learn that it is intended to commence laying Some of the rails on that portion of the Portland line nearest Montreal in the course of the ensuing week.Two or three of the cars intended to run on the line are in à state of forwardness at O\u2019Meara's factory.\u2014Montreal Herald, We are sorry to hear that a boy named Edward allagher, thirteen years of age, was drowned on onday evening at 7 o'clock, in the river near Mol- Son\u2019s foundry.Me was in a boat with another lad, and in coming down the boat struck on the chain of the anchor of a barge lying in the stream;

constrained to make known the medicine which, m the hands of a mer- health.1 was confined to my bid for most of the time for eight years, during which period | was under the treatment with little benefit, except one.by whom 1 wus for some time much relieved.He pronounced the disease to be scrofula, connected with carbus:cles, and the inflammation aud dietress which pervaded my system, was like a devouring flame, in this situation 1 was attacked with a severe cold and the disease set in with redoubled vigor.| was advised to use Swaim\u2019s Pajacea, which did me but little good, and my friends beholding my deplorable condition, advised me to use your Sarsaparilla 1 obtained some immediately and soon found benefit from its use, by causing my painful and sleepless nights to be fraught with peaceful slumbers.When 1 began to take the Sarsaparilla 1 felt a constant heat, throbbing and aching distress throughout my whole system, also a continual burning between the shoulders, which at intervals spreading over the whole buly produced a smarting in the skin iike a scald.1 had one tumor and three ulcers on my right side.and another ulcer on (he left, and the smarting soreness of the ulcers de prived me of all rest.My feet were very painful and lame so that 1 could not bear a shve upon them \u2014Such was my situation on commencing the use of Lhe Sarsaparisla and 1 had not taken iL but a short time before the ulcers were alt healed.my general health much improved.1 could wear my shoe and walk in the open air which t could not do for more than eight years.Trusting that all who
