by WM, LYMAN& Co, |_ \u2019 many, DR.HALSEY°S FOREST WINE; OR COMPOUND WINE - SARSAPARILLA, A NEW DISCOVERY.And the most extraordinary medicine of the age, put up in Large Bottles; a single bottle does more good, and goes farther in the cure of Diseases, than any ten bottles of Sarsaparilla extract hitherto in use; warranted to cure without nauseating or weakening, is perfectly safe at all times, and possesses a delightful bitter flavour, almost equal to Pure Port Wine.All the numerous Sarsaparillas now in use are prepared by boiling the root to obtain the extract.The finest medicinal properties of this valuable plant are therefore evaporated and lost ; besides this, articles of no medicinal® virtues whatever, such as molasses and liquorice are added to make up the deficiency, and give them consistency.It is not tn be wondered at then, that it takes 10, 20, and sometimes 50 large bottles of these extracts of Sarsaparilla to do any good, or produce the slightest change in health.Not so with Dr.Halsey's Forest Wine.Every dose produces its good effects, and every bottle its great results., This valuable medicine is prepared without heating, without the use of liquorice, molasses, or any syrup whatever.But the great beauty of Dr.Halsey\u2019s Forest Wine remains still to be told.By the invention of a new and wonderful chemical appara tus, a PERFECT WINE is produced from two o the most valuable plants in the world, the Sarsaparilla and Wild Cherry.It possesses all the fine virtues of these justly celebrated plants.In addition to this the efficacy of the Forest Wine is increased nearly ten fold by the farther combination of other rare vegetable properties.DR.HALSEY\u2019S Gum Coated Fores Pills.An invaluable Compound Sarsaparilla.preparation.Manufactured on the same prineiple as the Forest Wine, to which it is an important adjunct.They are coated with pure Gum Arabic, an important invention for which Dr.Halsey las received the only.patent ever granted on Pills.by the Government of the United States.Dr.HALSEY'S Forest Wine and Gun -coated Forest Pills, unite in accomplishing the same great and, THE PURIFICATION OF THE BLOOD, THE RENOVATION AND RESTORATION OF THE STOMACH AND BOWELS.THE BLOOD IS THE LIFE! The life principle of man is the blood.No sooner are those organs of the stcmach which make and nourish the blood, cleansed of morbid matter, and restored to healthy action by the use of the Forest Pills, and pure rich blood made to flow in the veins by the use of the Forest Wine, than disease begins to vanish, and strength and energy of body return.This is the principle on which is founded these great medicines, and by which Serofula, Dropsy, Bilious Diseases, Dispepsia, In digestion, Weakness, Want of Nervous Energy.Jaundice, Coughs, Colds, General Debility, fima- ciation of the Body, Rheumatism, Ague and Fever, Diarrhea, Cholera, Ulcers, and many other diseases are radically cured.TO THE LADIES.Nothing in the world is more absurd than the custom of using paints, chalks, &c., to improve the countenance.All such things instead of beautifying the complexion, display an affected gaudiness quite unbecoming and disgusting ; besides, the frequent use of cosmetics destroys the fine texture of the skin, giving it a coarse, palid, unnatural cast.True beauty and loveliness accompany the highest perfee- tion of health.which again invariably follows the PUREST STATE OF THE BLOOD.\u2018What artificial appendages equal that vivid expression of countenance which emanates from blooming health ?What paints compare with the crimson coloured blood casting its.brilliant roseate hue through the transparent texture of the skin?What charms are more captivating than those of nature, in her highest perfection ?Let Dr, Halsey's Forest Wine supply the place of all cosmetics.The use of this ax- cellent wine for a short time creates pure, rich blood, which, coursing through the veins, penetrates the minutest fibres that verge toward the surface of the skin, causing all unhealthy pimples and blotches to disappear, imparting a vivid, rosy colour to the skin, and brilliant expression of the eyes.THIS IS NATURAL BEAUTY.In corroboration of these facts, Dr.Halsey Jas many testimonials.The following is from a lady of the most respectable standing in society, sent to us by her own brother, residing in Rutgers Street.New Yorx, Julv 7th, 1849.\u2018DR.G.W, HALSEY,\u2014 As you have kindly requested me to state the result proceeding from the use of your Forest Wine and Pills, in the case of my sister, Mary T.Maxwell, I cheerfully comply, believing tno disparagement to give my signature in evidence of the excellent qualities of your medicines.My siater, from her youth, had been in very deli- cote health, complaining frequently of weakness of the chest, attended with a cough.About the age of eighteen she began to get much worse.For six months previous to ing with your medici she had not been able to go out of the house.Her countenance was greatly emaciated, yellow, and sickly.Her face and neck were covered with disagreeable pustules, eyes very much sunk, and her cough increasing.In fine, she bore every appearance of soon becoming an unhappy victim to consumption.At this time I procured for her some of your Forest Wine and Pills, which she commenced using according to the directions.She gradually improved as she followed up the use of them.Har first symptom of recovery was an uncommonly good appetite.Her face finally became smooth, and her cheaks rosy.Her cough left her altogether.She is now strong and vigorous, and presents the finest example of health T ever witnessed.JOHN 8 MAXWELL.4\" What my brother has said of me above, is literally true.\u201c MARY T.MAXWELL.The Forest Wine in large square bottles Bt per bottle, or six bottles for $5.Gum-coated Forest Pills 25 cents par box.For SALE, wholesale and retail;

and its whiteness is unaf- feeted by bilge water, noxious vapours from cargo, or the red heat on funnels of steam vessels.It is also cheaper than the Poisonous Paints, from Two Cwt.covering as much work as Three Cwt.of White Lead.lt may be tinted to any shade, and imparts brightness and clearness to other colours Tour years since the proprietors placed their manufacture on a large scale, and offered it at a price to competn with white lead paint.The suceessful introduction of this paint, and its confessed superiority over every other paint, hitherto known, brought forward various imitations: these inferior productions being frequently made from zine ores, containing sulphur, lead, arsenic, and other deleterious material, alike injurious to health, deficient in body, and reducing the preservative properties for which the original paint stands pre-eminent.In justice tothe proprietors these should not be confounded with the original, even though sold under the pretence, that it is all the same.Hunnuck's Paint is entirely free from any injori- ous properties whatever : it is healthful in the manufacture, healthful in nse, and healthful to ocenpants of rooms newly painted with it.As a guard against the substitution of the inferior paints, each cask is stamped \u201c HUBBUCK, LONDON, PATENT ;\u201d and if the cask has not been so marked, the reason is obvious.\u201c'To our nautical friends it will be valuable as a paint for ships\u2019 holds, and the wood and metal wark about marine engines, where, as is well known, white lead is of little use \"\u20147 he Artizan.1 Amongst other tostato which it has been subjeet- ed, has beon that of painting the hold of r suzar vessel, which, after à voyage to St.Kitt's and back again, js found as white as the frèt day the paint was applied.\u201d \u2014Bell's Weekly Messenger, June 22nd, 1860.À Crheuvan, with fall PAñrtouvans, may be had at the Mannufaoltrers, ;

Darksome cares and daily labours For awhile, are banished hence ;\u2014 \u2018To the land of dreams I wander, Bathed in beauteous floods of light, And my centred being rov Mid the visions of the night.Back again to joyous childhood, ith one gladsome leap I bound, And the peals of merry laughter Thro?the ringing woods resound : Childish playmates are about me, No whit altered in my sight ; Childish games have lost their folly, In the visions of the night.Or, perchance, the old comprnions, Who were found in youthful years, Pour afresh their fond assurance In my all too willing ears.Early loves and early friendships Turn their * sunny sides\u201d to light, And their shadows dare not venture In the visions of the night.Or the group that forms * our household,\u201d Glideth noiseless thro\u2019 my dreams, Shedding radiance all unwonted, Murm\u2019ring love in very streams | Frozen lips have found an utterance\u2014 Earnest eyes are beaming bright, While the secret heart revealeth, In the visions of the night.Bat the breezy morning cometh, \u201c4 ith her thousand wakeful songs, And I lend the hand of labour, Which to working life belongs.May each action be as earnest, And each tone as true and right, And reflect as bright a halo, As the visions of the night.OLD AGE AND DEATH.The seas are quiet when the winds give ocr ; So calm are we when passions are no more, For then we know how vain it was to boast Of fleeting things to certain too be lost ; Clouds of affection from our younger eyes Conceal that emptiness which age descries.The soul's dafk cottage, batterod and decayed, sets in new light through chinks that tme has made; Stronger by weakness, wiser men become, As they draw near to their eternal home : Leaving the old, both worlds at once they view, That stand upon the treshhold of the new.VARIETIES.SWAMPS IN CENTRAL AMERICA.\u2014The following sketch of a journey through a swamp, is from Scenes and Adventures in Central America.Edited by Frederick Hardman, Esq.We had proceeded but a very short distance into the swamp before we found out the use of the torches.The huge trunks of the eypress-trees, which stood four or five yards asunder, shot up to a height of fifty fect, entirely free from branches, which then, however, spread out at right angles to the stem, making the trees appear like gigantic umbrellas, and covering the whole morass with an impenetrable roof, through which not even a sunbeam could find a passage.On looking behind us, we saw the daylight at the entrance of the swamp as at the mouth of a vast cavern.The further we went, the thicker beeame the air; and, at last, the cfluvin was so stifling and pestilential, that the torches burnt pale and dim, and more than once threatened to go out.¢ Yes, yes,\u201d muttered our guide to himself, \u2018a night passed in this swamp would leave a man ague-struck for the rest of his days.A night, aye, an hour, would do it, if your pores were ever so little open; but now there's no danger; the prairie fire's good for that\u2014dries the sweat and closes the pores.\u2019 He went on conversing thus with himself, but still striding forward throwing his torchlight on each log or tree-trunk, and trying its solidity with his foot before he trusted his weight upon it\u2014doing all this with a dexterity and speed that proved his fami- liavity with these dangerous paths.\u2018Keep close to me,\u2019 said he to us, * but make yourselves light\u2014as light, at least, as Britishers can make themselves.Hold your breath, and ha! what is that log ?-\u2014 Hollo, Nathan,\u201d continued he to himself, * what's come to you, man?Don\u2019t you know a sixteen foot alligator from a tree ?\u201d Be had stretched out his foot, but fortunately, before setting it down, le poked what he took for a log with the butt of his gun.The supposed block of wood gave way a little, and the old squatter, throwing himself back, was within an ace of pushing me into the swamp.* Aba, friend I' said he, not in the least disconcerted, \u2018 ycu thought to sarcumvent honest folk with your devilry and cannin\u2019.\u2019 ¢ What is the matter?\u2019 asked I.* Not much the matter,\u201d he replied, drawing his knife from its sheath.\u2018Only an alligator : there it is again.\u2019 And, in the place of the log, which had disappeared, the jaws of a huge alligator gaped before us.[I raised my gun to my shoulder.The Yankec scized my arm.* Don\u2019t fire, whispered he.* Don°t fire, s0 long as you can help it.We ain't alone here.This will do as well,\u2019 he added, as he stooped down and drove his long knife into the alligator's eye.The monster gave a frightful howl, and lashed violently with its tail, besprinkling us with the black slimy mud of the swamp.\u2018Take that!\u2019 said the squatter, with a grim smile, \u2018and that, and that 1\u2019 stabbing the brute repeatedly between the neck and the ribs, while it writhed and snapped furiously at him.Then wining his knife, he stuck it in his belt, and looked keenly and cautiously around him.I've a notion there muat be a tree trunk hereaway ; it ain\u2019t the first time I've followed this track.There it is, but a good six foot off.\u2019 And so saying, he gave a spring, and alighted in safety on the step- ping-place.* Have a care, man,\u2019 eried I.wator there.* I seo it glitter.\u2019 ¢ Pooh, water! What you call water is snakes.Come on.\u2019 \u2018There is I hesitated, and a shudder came over me, The leap, as regarded distance, was a trifling one, but it was over an almost bottomless chasm, full of the foulest mud, on which the moccasin snakes, the deadliest of American reptiles, were swarming.* Come on.\u2019 Necessity lent me strength, and, pressing my left foot firmly against the log on which I stood, and which ench moment sank with our weight deeper into the soft slimy ground, I sprang across.Carleton followed me.¢ Well done!\u2019 cried the old man.¢Courage, and a couple move such leaps, and we shall be getting over the worst of it.\u2019 We pushed on, steadily but slowly, never setting our foct on a log till we had ascertained its solidity with the butts of our guns.The cypress swamp extended four or five miles along the shores of the crock ; it was a deep lake of black mud, covered over and disguised by a deceitful bright green veil of creeping plants and mosses, which had spread themselves in their rank Juxuriance over its whole surface, and over the branches and trunks of the trees that were scattered aboutit.These latter were not placed with: any very great regularity, but had yet been evidently arranged by the hand of man.\u2018There seems to have been a sort of path made here,\u2019 said I to our guide, * for ?* Silence I\u2019 interrupted he, in alow tone, ¢ silence, for your life, till we are on firm ground again, Don\u2019t mind the snakes,\u2019 added he, as the torch-light revealed some enormous ones lying coiled up on: the moss and lianas close to us.\u2018 Follow me close- 1 \u2019 But at the very moment that I stretched forward my foot, and was about to place it in the print that his had left, the hideous jaw of an alligator was suddenly stretched over the tree-trunk, not twelve inches from my leg.and the creature snapped nt me so suddenly, that T had but just time to fire my gun into his glittering lizard-like eye.The monster bounded back, uttering a sound between a bellow and a groan, and, striking wildly about him in the morass, disappeared.The American looked round when I fired, and an approving smile played about his mouth as he said something to me which I did not hear, owing to the infernal uproar that now arose on all sides of us, and at first completely deafened me.Thousands, tens of thousands, of birds and reptiles, alligators, enormous bull-frogs, night-owls, ahingas, herons, whose dwellings were in the mud of the swamp, or on its leafy roof, now lifted up their voices, bellowing, hooting.shrieking.and groaning.Issuing from the obscene retreats in which they had hitherto lain hidden, the alligators raised their hidcous snouts out of the green coating of the swamp, gnashing their teeth, and straining towards us, whilst the owls and other birds cireled round their heads, flapping and striking us with their wings as they passed.We drew our knives, and endeavoured to defend at least our heads and eyes; but all was in vain against the multitude cf enemies that surrounded us; and the unequal combat could not possibly have lasted long, when suddenly a shot was fired, followed immediately by another.The effect they produced was magical.The growls and cries of rage and fury were exchanged for howls of fear and complaint; the alligators withdrew gradually into their native mud; the birds fisw in wider circles around us ; the unclean multitude were in full retrent.By degrees the various noises died away.But our torches had gone out, and all around us was black as pitch.* In God's name, are you there, old\u2018man,\u2019 asked I.* What! still alive ?\u2019 he replied, with a laugh that jarred unpleasantly upon my nerves, * and the other Britisher too ?J told ye we were not alone.These brutes defend themselves if you attack them upon their own ground.and a single shot is sufficient to bring them about one\u2019s ears.But when they see you're in earnest, they soon get tired of it, and a couple more shots sent among them generally drive them away again; for they are but senseless squealin\u2019 creturs after all.\u201d Whilst he spoke, the old man struck fire, and lit one of the torches.¢ Luckily we have rather better footing here,\u2019 continued he.\u2018 And now, forward quickly ; for the sun is set, and we have still some way to go.And again he led the march with a skill and confidence in himself which each moment increased our reliance upon him.After proceeding in this manner for about half an hour, we saw a pale light glimmer in the distance.¢ Five minutes more and your troubles are over; but now is the time to be can tious, for it is on the borders of these cursed swamps the alligators best Jove to lie.In my eagerness to find myself once more on dry land, I scarecly heard the Yankee's words; and as the stepping places were now near together, I hastened on, and got a little in front of the party.Suddenly I felt a log on which I had just placed my foot, gave way under me.I had scarcely time to call out* Halt I\u2019 when I was up to the arm-pits in the swamp, with every prospect of sinking deeper.* You will hurry on,\u2019 said the old man with a laugh, and at the same springing forward, he caught me by the hair.© Tike warning for the future,\u2019 added lig, as he helped me ont of the mud ;

with the Tramontano wind you bave falling pottery and pleurisies.Rome is Ireland with a Pontine fever, and Naples is all that sun and wind can make it.The autumns are uniformly fine abroad, finer and less changeable than in England.As for spring, it only exists in * Thomson's Seasons.\u201d The continental summers arealinost unexceptionably good.Jn mountain districts there are certain periodical rains, but they rarely last long, or cause much inconvenience.An English invalid has few valid reasons for leaving his own shores, save such as the change of scene and the novelty of travel suggest.Pisa, itis true, offers some advantages to the weak-chested ; but then the whole available extent of Pisa is the quay along the Arno.Away from this, you encounter cutting winds and cold blasts, and all the rigors of a northern winter.There are a few secluded nooks along the Mediter- rancan, such as Nestre and Spezzia, which combine the advantages of sea-nir with all the luxuriance of n tropical vegetation.\u2014 Dickens's Houschold Words.New Kinp or TorAcco\u2014A new kind of tobacco is -eullivated \u201cin some places in Maryland.Itis named Persian tobacco, is of beautiful color, and commands a high price.A REMINISCENCE CONNECTED WiTH WATER: Loo,\u2014 We copy the following amusing anecdote from an article in the current number of Bentley\u2019s Miscellany.It seems thal, in 1815, there were no newspaper correspondents abroad as there are now, and therelore the bankers of London had their own ageals to keep them well informed, .The Gollsmidts had an agent, and so had Rothschild.Alter the affair of Quatre Bras the Goldsmidtian agent, who was in Brussels, seized with the then universal panic, wrote to inform his principals that all was lost, The Rothschild agent, more wary, had stationed himself at Ghent, where the presence of Louis the Eighteenth rendered it likely that truthful news would first arrive :\u2014 © Guided by these instructions, Mr.Rothschild\u2019: agent, whose name 1 forget, but who was a solid old gentleman, stationed himself at Ghent, and kept his eye upon the hote! in which Louis the Eighteenth war lodged, with the keenness of a man whose bread-and-hutter is implicated in the success of his procuring intelligence, ss Now it so happened that Louis the X VHIL, who tiked to play the king, had consented fo do so publicly, in order to gratify the worthy inhabitants of Ghent, In order to this, he had consented to eat his breakfast in public on the following morning, just as it was the custom at tha Tuileries for the Royal family to dine in public on cett«in days.Their tmajesties or their princedoms ate their meal, whilst the public matched along a kind of corridor to behold them, Well, our news-rgent attended this breakfast, as 1be sight of the day, He walked in and upstairs with the crowd of Ghentois, entered the room where Louis the Corpulent was eating with good appetite.There was rcarece- ly a partition between his Majesty\u2019s breakfast table and the public ; and our agent paused, with anxious and lingering respect, to ohserve the royal jaws in the very simple, but not su- hlime, operation of masticating food.¢¢ Louis had just devoured his last chop, and our friend devoured the imonarch in turn with his eyes, when a clatter was heard in the court below.A horseman had entered at full speed, and with equal speed, it would appear, the said horseman made his way up the staircase, determined to deliver his message into the royal hand, The messenger was neither more nor less than s courier, with short sword on his side, such as foreign couriers wear, and he handed to his Majesty a large envelope, which, when opened, contained a paper with a very few words.The Duke of Wellington had won a great battle on the field of Waterloo, Bonaparte had fled, and his army was destroyed, routed, and dispersed, The old King handed the paper to be read aloud, and by none were ite contents more greedily swallowed than hy the agent of the Rothschilds.And then the old King, starting to his not very firm legs, still contrived to walk upon them over to the cour~ ier, who stood waiting for his guerdon, and bestowed upon the poor man a guerdon that he very little expected, viz., an embrace and a kiss upon both his cheeks.Our jolly Enulish- man, however elated before, was now ashamed, quite ashamed, that, not Royalty, but manhood should inflict upon man such a thingas a kis, He ultered an exclamation, went out, put on his hat, rushed to Ostend, pat toseain a fishing-bost, and got 10 the English coast apd to London long belore à packet, post, or ordis nary messenger.\u201c * His first care was to inform his patrons, the Messrs.Rothschilds, who paid him muniti- cently, and entertained ho doubt of his correct= ness.Thoythen told him, that, after a certain hour of that day (for it was morning) struck by the london clocke, he might make what use he pleased of his intelligence.Accordingly my gentleman from Flanders paced up and: dow before the Horse Guards until the clock struck (I know not what hour, whether eleven or twelve).When it did strike, lie walked into Downing-street, and demanded to speak with Lord Liverpool.His passport, signed at Ghent on such a day, soon got through all the shyness of official reserve, and he was now ushered into the presence of the Premier.Fe told his story, as 1 have told it, from the firat matter of his instructions, to what he had heard at the Royal Breakfast.But he never mentioned the kiss\u2014 he would have blushed to do it._ \u201cNever was man in such a pucker as was Lord Liverpool.lle had been in the lowest spirits, oppressed by previous accounts, and he did not believe a word of his informant\u2019s story.t was a stock-jobbing business.The Duke would have sent a messenger from the field to Downing-street such nooner than to Ghent.Hud the sgent been a breathless soldier from the field, he might have believed him ; hit'a mere clerk, with a tale gleaned GO miles from the field, and no corroboration, Besides, the - news was too good 10 be true.\u201c Tn his perplexity, however, Lord Liver pool sent round all the offices 10 all 1he.peppile likely to know anything, or to be good es in the matter, The deuce a one could be found, but Croker.Ile came nnd questioned the agént, nay, cross\u2014questioned him in his sharp way.Bat there was no shaking his evidence.* Wei says the Rothschildian to the officials, * you {) or still doubt me, ne if I would come here fo lie for a paliry reward.If you won\u2019t believe what 1 toll you about the King of France and 1lie: courier who brought him the news, how will you believe what 1 am going to tell you, and.what astonished me more than anything else ?\u2014when Louis the Eighteenth read the lettér, he started up, hugged the dusty, dirty courier, and kissed the fellow on both cheeks.\u2019 \u201ctMy lord,\u2019 snid Mr, Croker, \u2018 you may believe every word this gentleman says.For.no English imagination could invént this circumstance of the kiss; find no possible eir-.cumstances could be a stronger guarailtee of truth.\u2019 \u201c Lord Liverpool therefore did believe and, was glad.But many still kept doubting.ft, was too good to be true; and why was tho Dukesilent?Major Percy, with the despatches,\u2019 did not arrive till late in the evening ;

QUEBEC, 16ru APRIL, 1852, \u201cTue Worsr SPECIES oF Socianisy.\u201d \u2014It is suchan old, threadbare, affair by this time, that we had almost forgotten the accusation of Socialism, \u201cdele pire es- pece,\u201d brought six months ago by Mr, Cauchon against Messrs.Rolph and Cume- ron.Our recollection bas been summoned to the fact, as a matter of bygone history, by noticing a revived or continuing controversy upon the subject in the columns of the Journal de Quebee and some other papers.The Canadien, in reply to the Juwr- nal, has argued the question upon its true foundations, and driven its adversary into a corner, or into what the Americans would call a fiz, out of which there seems no possibility of escape.The Canadien shews conclusively that if the secularization of church revenues or property, justifies a charge of socialism against the man who advocates such alienation, then the enlightened and eminently Catholic bishop of T'o- ronto, Monseigneur le Comte de Uharbon- nel, Archbishop Hughes, of New York, the Mirror, which is the representative and gunrdian among newspapers of Roman Catholic sentiments and interests in Upper Canada, the Arehibishop of Canterbury (some authority in the matter of Protestant Clergy Reserves, ) the Twelve Judges of England, the British Parliament and Government, the Lafuntaine- Baldwin Ministry, and finally the supreme, unecrring Head of the Roman Catholie Church, Puntifse muximus, the Pope of Rome himself, who concurred in the wholesale secularization and sale of the ecclesiastical property of numer- vus religious orders in Spain, and in other conntries,\u2014all these high authoritic: are chargeable with socialism, and \u2018* de (a pire espèce, \"\u2014 all, indeed, having the slightest claim to dogmatise inecelesinstical mint- ters, or pretending to uphold the rights of property, lay or elerical, excepting only the Journal de Quebec.Messrs, Rolph and Cameron being thus sustained by such grave, pious, and weighty authorities in Church aud State, it is to be hoped the Journal will cheerfully withdraw and make full sutisfaction and amends for the unfounded and now sufliciently exploded accusation against gentlemen, who least of ull men perhaps in Christendom, are obnoxivus to it.We subjoin the article in the Canadicn on this subjeet : \u201cTIE RESERVES, RLOTURIES, &c.\u201cThe organ of Monscigneur the Count de Charbounel, Bishop of Toronto, and of the Catholies of Upper Canada, has exposed itself to the \u201ceccuaununicetion ru Jeure\" falminated by the Journal de Quebec against Messrs.Rolph and (Cameron, and their Socialist or Clear Grit adherents.\u2014- The Examiner, and other journals of this party, which are upposed to an alliance between the Anglican or any church whatsoever, with the State, have cited approvingly, in support of their principle, a discourse recently delivered by my Lord the Archbishop Hughes of New York, entitled\u2014 \u201cThe Catholic chapter in the history of the United States,\u201d in which this illustrious prelate holds up to the admiration of the world, as a model of wisdom, that article of the federal constitution of America, which forbids Congress to recoguize any religion as that of the State, The Era- miner, and lis brethren, judging frow re cent discussions, imagined that the politico- religious doctrine of the Archbishop of New York was at variance with that of the Mirror and other journals whieh are supposed to express the views of the Catholic clergy of Canada, and having declared this opinion, the Mirror responded as follows.\u2014 (Mere the Canadien translates and quotes the article from the Mirror, headed, * Ca- tholie Church Property, \u201d which was given in our paper of the 9th inst, to the effect that Archbishop Hughes and the Mirror wore entirely in accord upon the subject of a State Church, to which both were utterly opposed.\u201d) The Canadien proceeds :\u2014*¢ Messrs, Rolph and Cameron have never, that we know of, gone farther than the Mirror goes in this article.They have declared pub- liely that they were willing the Catholics, who are in a winority in Upper Canada, should have separate schools, if they desired to have them, and have as mauy as they liked: is it necessary, for tho purpose of satisfying the Journal de Quebec, that the Catholics slould Le compelled to have separate schools, whether they desire them or not?What absurdity | If Messrs.Rolph and Cameron are Socialists because they are oppssed to à state religion in Canada, à dominant church, as there is in England and in Ireland the Anglican church, then lis graca Archbishop Hughes, and the organ of his grace of Charbonnel, are also Socialists ; for neither do they desire an alliance between Church and State, and they go the length of wishing even to deny the power constitutionally of legislating upon a subject so sacred as religion.\u2018 If Messrs.Rolph and Cameron are so- eialists, because they ask that the public lands, destined originally to endow the Anglican Church, ns the dominant Church of Canada, should be employed for other pub- {ic purposes, not only the Mirror, who consents to it, bat the 12 Judges of England who decided that the Scotch Church should share in these lands with the English Church, aud the Imperial Parliament, which gave them a different destination, by the Act of 1840, and the l'rovincial Parlia- mont, which ealled for this change, and the different protestant sects, and even the eca- tholie clergy, who have received & portion of these revenues since the passing of this {ast Act, and the Archbishop of Canterbu- 7y, who consented to this new distribution of them, are likewise, all of them, sociAL- ral If Mesara, Rolph and Cameron dre so- ciliate, because they wish the seculariza- gion, that is, the application do puldic in- .3e Lu cs es eee ces = EE struction or other secular usca, of that part of these lands, or their revenues, which still belong to the State ; if they are socialists, beeanse, believing and doing their utmost to prove, that the Hectories or bencfices created from these lands, were created fraudulently, they demand the abolition of these benufices, then the Lafontaine- Baldwin Administration was socialist also; for it obtained from the Imperial ministry a promise to enguge the English parliament to allow the Provincial Parliament to dispose of the Réserves as it should think fit, and it obtained trom the Legislative Assembly of the Province, the authority to demand of the Courts the nullification of the letters patent creating the Reetories.Thus then would the Journal de Québec stand alone in its glory, entitled to proelaim itself the only one free from tho stain of socialism, if unhappily Mr.Cauchon had not voted for the ministerial propositions of last session.It remains only for him, therefore, to pruclaim himself more catholic than the Bishop of Toronto, than the Avch- bishop of New York, and ever than Our Holy Father the Pope, whom he may very well ueease of socialism for having concurred in the secularization of ceelesinstical propesty and the suppression of benefices which had not been created fraudulently, in Spain and elsewhere.What ridiculous pretensions ! what extiavaganee ! Buch, however, has been the subject or the pretext of the war which he has declared against the Hineks-Morvin ministry, and he attributes to us interested motives in not having marched beneath his banner.I'he Orange tories, with whom Mr.Cau- chon wishes the catholics of Lower Canada fo contract an allinnee offensive nud defensive against the reformers of Upper Canada, are they less socialists than the clear-grits¢ The paper of the ex-grand master of the Orangemen, the Toronto Patriot, which has beeone the politico-religious gospel of Mr.Cauchon, asserts and proves that the reserves were originally destined for the endwiment of the Anglican Church, to the exelusion even of all protestant scets, and he, notwithstanding, desires that they should be withalrawn from this original destination and divided between the 21 churches, more or less christian, whieh among them pareel out Upper Canada, not excepting the Roman Church any more than the Mormon Church, and without admitting that the rectories were created in fraud, he proposes that the reetors should Le invited to resign their benefiees, in order that the reserves and rectories should be thus divided and applied, net only for the maintenance of these twenty four discordant clinrches, hut for public instruction, civil as well as religious, that in this manner they should Le secularised.The Grangeist Journal then secks the same thing almost as the clear grit journals, with this difference, however, that these last whilst maintaining that the rectories have been fraudulently created, would nevertheless respect the vested rights of rectors innocent of the fraud, and permit them peaceably to enjoy the revenues of the ree- tories daring their lives.The clear-grit journals draw also a broad line of demarcation between the title of protestant churches to the parliamentary reserres, and that of the catholic church th the property she possesses in Lower Canada, whilst the Orange journal admits of no suchdistinetion.Since trauslating the above article from the Cnadien, we have seen a notice in the Journal de Quebec, of last night, respecting it, which we shall cousider ourselves hound to present to our readers in our next issue.\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 Pur Piror \u2014We have much pleasure in quoting the following very proper, but at the same time, much called fur expression of regret, at the tendency of an article that appeared in the Pilot, of the 3rd, reflecting upon a gentleman much and deservedly esteemed in this community :\u2014 \u201c Bound to notice the events falling within the domain of the journalist, which vceur in this community, in our number of the 3:d in stant, we adverted to the losses sustained by the Branch of one of the Banks of our city, But words, both in their application and eon- struction, are ocensionally susceptible of being taken in a sense never contemplated by their author, and we are grieved to find that our cdi- torial of that day has Leen erronconsly under- stoul to convey animpeachment of moral character, and an imputation of want of rectitude, which we never meant to prefer or east, Disclaiming any such intention, we hasten to cor- reet a mistake ealeulated to hurt the feelinys, thougly it might net affect the reputation of a gentleman holding an office of great trust, ol whom we fuel bound to say woe never intended sa to speak as to impugn the rectitude of his moral principles,\u201d We told our contemporary at the time that his article had \u201ca decided tendency to a personal divection, a small ingredient of individual malice, aud an odour of what Inwyers would call defamatory libel.\u201d In a very discourteous reply fo this friendly warning, the Pilot assumed a tone of menace and libel, talked of our * bombastic tone,\u201d bat dit! not go any further because, he said, he * did not wish to get info a quarrel,\u201d with us, for which penceable deportment on his part, we render our contemporary all the thanks due to a gentleman, whose military studies have taught him that \u201c discretion is the better part of valour.\u201d In the same number of this paper, the 13th instant, in which he makes his apology, the Pilot talks of having \u201cseverely reprimanded another journalist fur the utterance of some- thingill-natured and incorrect.\u201d We wonder where this skimmer of the seas got his commission of superiority, entitling him to adninister \u201creprimands.\u201d Surely this skimmer must have been half seas over\u201d when he twaddled such nonsense.asthe Pilot east rudder and compass overboard \u2014 his course has wot been very straight or well defined of late.Opening oF Navication WESTWARD.\u2014 By a report from the Welland Canal we learn that Lake Erie is now open.The entrance from it to the Canal by Port Col.borne is still impeded with ice, but that by Port Maitland is perfectly clear, Fourteen vessels passed up on the 13th instant, First ARRIVALS FROM Sea.\u2014The ship Albion, Barclay, master, 23rd March, from reenock, consigned to Messrs.G.B, Symes & Co., with a general cargo, arrived here lust night at half-past 11 o'clock ; and the ship Toronto, Ballantyne, 22nd March, from Liverpool, consigned to Messrs, Gillespie & Co., also with a general cargo, ar- rived shortiy after the Albion, THE There is only one single instance of so carly an arrival in our port, and that ia in 1831, when the brig Nemesis, from Poole, arrived on the JGth April, after a pas.sagn of 21 days.Last year the first arrival was the ship Toronto, Capt.Ballantyne, March 17th, from Liverpool, which arrived on the 20th April, aud we had no other arrivals till the Ist May following, Captain Ballantyne saw the Cambria, Harrison, below Bic, so that she way be expected here in the course of the day.Captain I3.also saw two other vessels in the ice, and thinks they were the Ottawa and the Shandon, but is not sure.We learn with pleasure that the Toronto has brought out the pipes for the eouvey- ance of water from the reserveir at Lorette to this city.We may reckon upon having water laid on in all our houses by the coming fall.Un a former ocension we ventured to sup- ort the cause of Life Assurance generally, ut our humble efforts were not required ; the benefits derived from such precautions must Lave been manifest at all times.No Savings\u2019 Dank can equal them.\u2018The Britannia Life Assurance Company alone, has, since the vstablishment of an agency in this aty, paid upwards of twenty thousand pounds to parties here ; which payments, we understand, were acknowledged to have been made with promptness and liberality.In making these observations, we do not, by any means, intend to insinuate that the other Companies ave linble to the charge of illiberality or tardiness in satisfying all claims upon them.We are confident full justice has been donc to all parties.The above is frum last night's Jfereury, and in proof of the correctness of our contemporary\u2019s opinion respecting the Dritan- pia Company, we may mention that a circumstance highly creditable to them and to the Agent in this city\u2014 Mr.Peniston\u2014las come to our knowledge, A vespeeted citizen who died lately leaving a family in a needy state, had a claim on the company for a considerable sum, but as according to the rules, the company are entitled to three montlis' credit after prooi, à serious delay for the claimants must have ocenrred, the agent, in consideration of the cireum- stances of the ease, recommended an nie mediate settlement of the claim, which we are happy to state has been cheerfully conceded.On Monday last the instructicars so to du were received by Mr, d'eniston, and on Wednesday the matter was sutizfactorily seitled, Mmmm ee 12 = Hour Manuracrure.-We have heen much gratified by a sight of a very superior \u201csale\u201d lately construeted for the Upper Canada Dank in the City ; it has all the appearances vf first rate workmanship ; the door especially, is, to onr taste, excellent, and is different from any we have provi- ously seen, more massive and claborate, its panels ornamented with rich mouldings forming neatly at the angles, and although not less than 7 ewt., it moves as genily on hinges as a parlor door.The lock is one of Newell's famous contrivance, technically termed, * Parenteptie,\u201d and is said to be \u201c* suscuptible of so many changes, that it is secure against the attempts of even the inventor.\u201d Hear that ye of the Chubs School!

the citizens of Quebec, held pursuant to notice at the Court House, on the 13th day of February last, for the purpose of adopting measures to secure an Ico Bridge, ut or near Quebec, during cach winter, beg leave to submit the following REPORT: The formation of a periodical Ice Bridge to con- noct the north and south shores of the St, Lawrence at Quebec, hns long been a dosideratum with its inhabitants, and has frequently formed the subject of QUEBEC 'GAZET anxious and not uninteresting discussion.Your Couanittee, deoply inipressed with the magnitude of such an undertaking \u2014the feusibility of which they had assumed tho respousibility of ascurtaining.and fully appreciating its intimate connexion with the interests of the city aud the comforts of its inhabitants, proceeded without loss of Lime, and with all possible diligence to the performance of their tsk.They deemed it of the List importance, that in view of an vuterprise of this nature\u2014so novel, and apparently sn arduous in its character, the most ample information within their reach should be procured ; and in furtherance of this object, they addressed themselves as well by a notice in the publie papers, as by private circulars, to all persons disposed to co-operate with the Committee in promoting this great measure, snd in elaborating its principles and details, The Committee have derived very great information and assistance in the prosecution of their labours from the able Repart of the Comittee of the City Council, dated the 13th February, 1842, on the sung subject, politely communicated by his Worship the Mayor.\u2018They were also favored with valuable papers from the following gentlemen, viz: William Henderson, Esquire, of Frampton, ne- companied by a copy upon an enlarged seale prejured by himself, of Captain Bayficld\u2019s Chart of the river near Quebee, and a very full estimate in detail of the cost of construction of wharves and blocks of various dimensions for arresting tho ico ; \u2014 Horatio Nelson Patton, Esquire, J.G.Clapham, Lsquire, M.P.P.with a sketch of the river at Cap Nonge, and the copy of n letter addressed by Mr.Henderson to Mr.Clap- liam, ns chairman of the Committee of the City Cotneil, on the St: March, 1842 ;\u2014 Michael Scott, LEsquire.of Cap Rouge ;\u2014Jolm Lambly, Esquire, lute, nud for many years Harbour-Master of the Port of Quebec, witha chart of the river ;~Mr Frangois Gondrean, Superintendent of Pilots ;\u2014Henry At kinson, Esquire ;\u2014Mr.David Vaughan, Master Mariner und Ship-builder ;\u2014Mr.IS.W.Sewell, Ship-builder, with a drawing of the midship section of a steamer recommended ns a winter Ferry Boat between Quebec and l\u2019oint Levy ;\u2014Mr.François E.Verrault, with estimates of the probable cost of the works proposed by him ;\u2014R.Julyan, Esquire, Captain Royal Navy and Assistant-Harbour-Master for the Port of Quebec, with estimates of the probable cost of the necessary works ;\u2014 George Henderson, Esquire.J.P, with a plan exhibiting various schemes for the formation of a buoyant cable or Linwser supported on the surface of the water by straw drawn as for thateh and lapped round the cable with spun yarn, making it of the thickness of a flonr-bar- rel, or with flour-barrels or water-tight boxes at short intervals ;\u2014and William Patton, Esquire.The Committee are also much indebted to Messrs, William Patton, Willi MeCuteheon and \u2014 White, for their valuable suggestions and opinions furnished orally to the Committee, with a model, fron Mr.White, exhibiting the mode on which a rope-boom ought to be placed across the river.The Committee were also favored with an able paper from W IL A, Davies, Esquire, the Scerctary te the Comsniticu, on the subject of the objection made to a periodical lee Bridge, on the ground that it would retard the opening of the na i The Connnittee, after havines \u20ac: and considered the opinions and evid them by men of science and expericuee, have had no asiun Lo doubt for a moment the correctness of the ally prevalent opinion in favor of the practi- fa periodical fee Bridge, Neither did they des 1 it nec y to reek for any additional evidence of the traniteat benelits to be derived from it, ns af fording an enlarged and more certain and equalized supply of very many of the nocessaries of life, more espectally such as enter into the daily wants of the industrial classes, ur of its inappreciable advantages in promoting the health of the inhabitants, by fur- ishing a more extended field for cxereise and reerea- tion in the vpen sir during the tedinm of our winter months, Eatertaining these views, they procecded first to the consideration of an objection raised by a few persons Lo the periodical formation of an lee Bridge, predicated upon its supposed tendeney to retard the opening of the navigation of the river St, Lawrence inthe Harbour of Quebee, and its consequent damage to the connnercial interests of the conntry.On this question your Committe ure of opinion, that great velimsiee way be placed npon the arguments adduced by Br.Davies, in his paper already referred to, in which, int) epinion, he has successfully cowhatted this prejudice.He shows that dwing » period of twenty years, the average date of the arriva of the first stemn-boats from Montreal, in these years in which there has been no Jee Bridge, is the 23rd April ; and that in these years in which there has been a bridge, it is the 27th April ; and that as to the arrival of vessels from sea, the average time has been the 1st May, as well in years in which there has been a bridge, as in those in which there hes been none.That the variable periods of the opening of the navigation, depend upon natnral laws uninfluenced by trivial artificial obstructions, namely: lo.The rising of the temperature in the St.Lawrence, by an accession of waters {rom southern and warmer regiu 20.The cousequent rise and enlargement of its stream, and the corresponding rise, and the disengazement of the ice from the shoals and beaches 3 3o \"The gradual inervase in the temperature of the earth as the sun advances towards the north, \u2014the regular and uniform operation of these great causes, being evidenced annually in Canada by the almost simultancous Lreaking up and departure of the ice from lake St.Peter, the river St.Charles and the north channel of the sland of Orleans,\u2014 thus demonstrating how very little the operatian of these great physical movements, which ertend their influence nver several Intitudes, could be retarded or disturbed by the accident of a brilge from Quebec to Poing Levy, or the comparatively insignificant body of ice of which it would be composed.Your Committee after a\u2018full and deliberate co ation of the main ol jeet «hich they had in view, were quite prepared, even upon the supposition of its causing a few days delay in the opening of the navigation, to give an unqualified opinion in favor of the utility of an Ice Bridge, under a settled conviction that such a tems porary impediment to the navigation, even were it seriously to be dreaded, would still he greatly over balanced by the manifold advantages accruing from tire measure in other points of view But the enquiry made by the Committee into this objection has led to & unatimous conclusion, that there is no reason whatever to apprehend sneha prejudicial effect upon the navigation.They are moreover of opinion that a bridge obtained by the aid of artificial means in the commencement of the severe frosts of winter, would in all probability he formed of new and thin ice, and would naturally extend up to, and heyond Cap Reunze, and would thereby rather facilitate the opening of the navigation, by preventing the acenmula- tion of drift jee in the narrows at the latter place, and the occasional jamming of the îce at Quebec, which, in boisterous seasons when such casualties are most likely to oceur, constitute the most formidable, if not the only obstacles to the opening of the navigation, and depend upon canses the magnitude of whicls place them entirely beyond the controul of human agency.The Committee having thus in their judgment, surmounted all the preliminary objections, next turned their attention to the consideration of the means by which the objeet in view conld best he attained, whether by the erection of blocks or wharves on either shore, with a view to the narrowing of the inain streaim at some given point, and thereby the nore easily causing & stoppage of the large sheets of ice ; or by placing across the stream from shore to shore a continuous line of cables, floats, or net work, seenred hy anchors, inorder to assist the action of the frost and the formation of now ice, as well as to arrest the sheets of ice atan carly period of the season, as they would then offer a comparatively small resistance.The selection ofthese two modes having been put to the vote, it was decided that resort should © had to blocks or wharves, as offering the greater rospeet of success for the undertaking, The placo best adapted for the formation of a hridge, next ocenpicd the attention ofthe Committoo.Various propositions wore submitted to the Committee, recommending different localities for the construe tion of the necessary works, some advocating a point at the narrows near Cap Rouge, and others, several points below Quobee.The reasons urged in favor of Cap Rouge were fonnded upon the rapid narrowing of tha river at that place, and the con-equent greater facility in arresting tho ico, ns shewn by the fact that the river takes there alinost every winter, for shorter or longer periuds, without the aid of artificial means ; added to the great probability of having an Ice Bridgo at Quebee, by the mera action of the frost and the freezing of the river from sido to side, which, in the event of a bridge boing already formed at Cap Ronge, would not he impeded or damaged by drift ice.In favor of Quebec, it was contended that an 1ce Bridge at Cap Kouge tended to jam the river and might in soma seasons delay the opening of the navigation between Quebec and Montreal, and that it was by no means certain that a bridge at Cap Rouge would necessarily seenre the formation of nna at Que- bee, without the aid of artificial means.That in the event of à failure to form a bridgo at Cap Rouge, the blocks or wharves erceted there would be compara- sid before tively valucless, while at or near Quebee they would TE.add greatly to the safety of the harbour, and might { be adapted to purposes of commerce and made to yield a revenue 3 besides, that thie formation of a bridge in the vicinity of the erty, if at all practicable, was the! moxt desirable, independently of any adventitious ; advantages which it wight possess, and ought to be : atten.pt-d there in preference to imore remote localities, \u2018The question being put te the vote, was decided in favor of Quebeo .Having thus disposed of the rival claims of Cape Itouge and Quebee, the Committee next proceeded to the selection of one of the two places suggested as sites fur the construction of the necessary works he- low the city, namely : \u2014Point Levy Shoal, on the right bank of the River, immediately in front of the Roman Catholie Church of that Parish, and a point about half 2 mile further down, and nearly opposite to the head of the Island of Orleans.With respect to | Poiut Levy shoal, it was argued that the erection of Blocks or Wharves there, running into deep water, witha Block or Wharf on the opposite shore or beach of the River St.Charles, also extending into decp water, would narrow the main stream from 1250 yards\u2014its breadth at the city\u2014to à apace of about 950 yards, between the Iilocks or Wharves, and would thereby arrest the large shocts of new ice formed in the early part of the winter in the bays above Quebec, and sent adrift by the tide, and thus secure a Bridge every winter.Further\u2014that Blocks or Wharves erected at Point Levy Shonl would form a breakwater to the harbour, and add greatly to its safety in gales of casterly wind, to which it is now much exposed, aud which have herctofore caused so much destruction of life and property ; and by reason of their greater proximity to the city, would be better adapted to purposes of commerce and the production of a revenue.It was also advanced.as an additional urgnment in favor of this locality, that it presented great facilities for the erection of a Rail Road station, and that if it should he determined to conncet the projected Halifax and Quebee Rail Road with one to Montreal, on the north side of the St.Lawrence, this spot must of necessity be selected, ns being situate cp- posite to the only place from which a Rail Road to Montreal ought to take its departure, namely, from a point at the embouehure of the River St.Charles, in order to avoid the ascent and descent of the high ground upon which the city of Quebec is built.On behalf of the point opposite to the head of the Island of Orleans.it was contended, that although the distance between the outermost piers to be placed in the same depth as those proposed at Point Levy shoal, would be greater than at the latter place, the direct distance across the stream, at right ungles with the course of the current, from the south pier to the Lelt or breastwork of jee which would form upwards; along the stream from the north pier, would not ex- eced 675 yards, \u2014thus actually narrowing the open | water channel to that breadth, \"That the river was | mnely shallower at this point, and that in consequence of a large body of water being there diverted into the channel on the north side of the Island, the volurme of water descending the main channel of the river, being much smailer, îts rapidity and foree are con- se queutiy much dinrinished, thus removing or lessening one of the great obstacles to the formation of an Tee Bridge.That, moreover, from the diagonal di rection of the line between the Bleek: or Wharves on the two shores, the lower end of the jee constituting idge.vrould rest on the ground ive at the head d, which wonl@ enable it to tain the the pressure of the descending misses, ireumistancescombined with ti-e linosn fuet, that the river along the Beaupere shoal, oss the mouth of the north channel, for a istanceinto the main stream.inves : takes every r.at an early period of the sen-on, gaven decided sdvantage to this place for the fonna- tion of an Ice Bridie.These two important points having undergzenc a careful and protracted direussion, the question decided in favor of Point Levy shoal.-the Caimmittee being cf opinion that even although an Ice Bridge might Le more cusily seared at the Lower Point, the works to he constructed for that purpose, would net afford the saine protection to the harbour, nor yield an equal revenue, with those at the point nearest to the eity.Having thus resolved, underthe eirenmstances, and tn consideration of the conteurplated coincident nd- vantages likely to acerue from the works in question, that Point Levy shoal was the more dligible site for their erection, the Committee next proceeded to the determination of the nc less important question of the nature of the works best adapted to the end proposed.'Phree distinct propositions were thon sebmitted ; one for a continuous solid wharf, extending from the shore tn deep water ; ancther, for one or wore Jusalated Blocks, and a third, for a wharf near the shore, in conjunction with one or more Blocks running into deep water, in the same line with the wharf.It was contended that the solid aud continmons wbarf vas entitled to a preference, inasniich as it combined the two-fold advantage of forming a move effectual broak- water for the protection of the harbour, and was Letter adapted for the erection of Buildings for the wants of trade, and the production of a revenue ; and thet uny apprehension as to the increasing of the force of the current by a continuons solid wharf, would he abwviated, or would not at all be felt, in consequence of the greater expansion of the river towards the Beau- portshore opposite to that part ; and moreover, that this long wharf would cause an eddy which would Le favorable to the retention and stoppage of the ice.Ou the other hand, it was avgied that a continuous wharf, extending in on solid mass from the shore to its utmost limit in deep water, wes objeetionable, hy reason of its tendeney, notwithstanding the greater expansion of the strain there, to concentrate, in a greater or less degree, the waters of the St.Lae renee within narrower limits, therchy increasing its velocity and consequent foree at that point ; and that instead of facilitating the stoppage of the ice, it might have a directly contrary effet, beeause a direction would Le given by this long wharf tothe enrrent outwards into the imnain stream, which would draw off into mid channel the sheats of drift ice, by means of which the forndation.so to speak, of au Jee Bridgo was to he laid 5 whereas, by permitting the waters of the river still to flow between the blocks or the piers of a wharf, shoreward of the deep water block, the suction produced by this current would cause the sheets to be drawn upon the outer block, and there to tarn as upon a pivot, and, by thus retarding their progress, would create a jam.from the other sheets coming upin succession to the narrowed pass.The Committee, belore determining upon the relative merits of these different schemes, took into consideration the probable cost of cach, in ascertaining which they were greatly assisted by the very elaborate and minute estimates prepared and submitted to them, by Mr, Henderson, exhibiting the cost of three modes of construction.After a full consideration of the respective merits and advantages of these different schemes, and the probable cost of eacly, it was vesnlved to recommend the construction of a continuons wharf, 2000 feet long, with a uniform breadth of 100 feet, running into G fathoms of water, and 2 block on the opposite shore to be sunk in the same depth, the aggregate cost of which would amount to £15,000.Tt was further resolved that these works should not be erected exclusively with a view to the periodical formation of an lee Bridge, but in connexion with the amelioration of the harbour, and the production of n revenue, by adapting them to purposes of trade.Although many of the foregoing points, which have reference to the site, and to the deseription, quality, and cost of the works required for the pe- riodieal formation of an Tee Bridge, involve questions of minute detail, depending upon art, science and experience, and which must still.ns a matter of course, remain subject to such alterations and modifications as upon a maturer consideration and judgment may be deemed necessary by those to whom this important undertaking may be hereaftor confided, Your Committee, nevertheless, rely with the greatest confidence, upon the acenracy of the information collected by them, and of the conclusion to which they have come, in respect of tho practicability of an Iee Pridge, and the inestimable advantages to vesult from it, as well ag from the works required for its formation; and they, therefore, unhesitatingly recommend to their fellow citizens of Quechee, to usp their utmost endeavour to carry the scheme into execution without loss of time, in order to ensure its successful and speedy accomplishment.hero yot remained ono other question of no small importance connected with this subject, and which was obviously within the sphere of the duties nssign- ed to tho Committee, namely, the determination of the ways and means by which the necessary funds wera to be obtuined ;\u2014whether from contributions in money and materials from the inhabitants of Quebeo, and the adjacent locvalities, or by means of n private company, which should carry the project into exceu- tion at their own risk, with the aid, in either case, of such grants as might be procured from the Legiala- ture, or by an application to the government to have the works undei taken under public authority.The Committee wera unanimously of opinion, that in order to accomplish an undertaking of such magnitude, so intimately connected with the improvement of tho navigation of the River Bt.Lawrence, and the general commerce of the country, \u2018more especially with regard to tho greater degree of protection required for the safety of the shipping, and of the large andivalun- ble rafts of timber and other descriptions of limber, y ofthe Province ; and that petitions to that effuet | brought down annually to tha Port of Quebec, and which constitnte its staple articles of export, ss wel as for the security of smali craft frequenting the har- bonr from the Lower Ports and the Upper Lakes, the proper course was by an application to the Legislature to linva these works construeted at the expense should be forthwith prepared for signatare, and presented tothe three branches at the next session of parliament.Your Committee cannot conclude this Report without expressing the unfeigned plesstre and pride they feel in recording the alacrity and industry displayed by many gentlemen in the community\u2014as well mem- burs of the Committee as others.in applying themselves to the task of collecting information, in every branch of the subject, and reducing to writing their individual opinions wn suzaestions, as well as the general satisfaction which the prospect of a periodical Tee Bridge bas spread throughout the city and adjacent country parts, lt is tu be hoped that the same zenl will continue to manifest itself in the further prosecution of our labours, and that it will not be suffered to relax until it shall have given more substantial proofs of its existence, by the ultimate nchiove- ment of the grand object contemplated at the com- mancement, and which has been so long and so ardently desired by the inhabitants of the city and dis- triot of Quebee.The whole, nevertheless, humbly submitted, _ DUNBAR ROSS,

TOTAL LOSS\u2014INCIDENTS, RTC.[From the Cincinnati Commercial, 5th inst.] One of the most terrible calamities that has occurred on our western waters for several years, took place on the 3rd inst.On Satur- dav, 12 M., the opposition Cincinnati and Madison packet Redstone, left Madison for Cincinnati, on a trial of speed, with about 20 cabin passengers, The number on deck is not known.The officers and crew numbered about twenty persons.She landed at Carrollton and took on a number of passengers and then pushed out and started on.Upon arriving at Scott\u2019s landing, four miles above Carrollton, at the foot of Craig\u2019s bar, she was called in for a passenger, the Rev.Perry A.Scott, a Baptist minister, formerly stationed in Covington, and recently in Warsaw, Ky.Mi, Scott had been on a visit to his parents, and was returning te his charge.His parents and three sisters accompanied him to the landing to witness his departure.as the sequel prosed, into the presence of his God, The Redstone shoved ont from the landing about one hundred yards, Strong wind was blowing in shore, and it was with difficulty that she roulé back her way out.Atthe second revolution she made to start forward, her three boilers exploded at the same time, with a tremendous noise, shattering and tearing the hoat literally 10 atoms.She sunk in less than three minutes.in twenty feet water.The ladies\u2019 cabin and aft part of the boat, from the maia deck up, in its shattered condition, took fire, and burned down to the water\u201ds edge.In the explosion ber chimpeys were blown nearly across the river, Between twenty and forty prisons, it is thought, were instantly killed, and many seriously injured, The river was covered with small pieces of timber, bedding, wearing apsarel, &c., &e., while the trees in the immediate vicinity, on the Kentucky shore, were covered with clothing, bedding, &e, The scene, as it presented itself, is indescribable.Eleven were blown on shore, and instantly killed, The first engineer, Robert Barry, and striker,\u201d or third engineer, Mr, Hutchison, were found near together, in an open field, over ane bundred yards from the river.An opening near the top of a large oak tree, over one hundred feet hizh was made by the engineer, who passed through, stripping him cutirely of lis clothing, and teasing large pieces of flesh from his body.A piece of one ol the boilers, weighing near fifteen hundred pounds, was found a distance of one hundred yards from the disaster, and other pieces at various distances, some near six hundred yards ofl.The two en- ginrers were entirely naked.and so nangled and torn that they were scarcely recognizable The second engineer, Lewis Barry, was found in a cornfield all mangled and torn to pieces.Mi.Goeble.editor of the Lawrenceburg Register, and Myres, a foreman in his office, were found al a distance of about sixty yards Irom the boat, so badly scalded,burned,and mu tilated, that they were hardly known, Captain Pate was blown into the river, breaking a leg, fracturing a knee, burning his face, and otherwise injuring him so badly, that his recovery is considered doubtful.The pilots, Charles J.ck-on, of Rising Sun, Ind., and Sidney Langloy, of Anrora (the Former at the wheel), were seriously bruised and injured internally : the formerit is said, may recover, The clerk, Mr.Soper, was standing near the office door when the explosion took place.He was thrown into the air a distance of nearly two hundred feet, and fell into the river, but rereived no serions injury, He swam ashore, and seving a fellow being struggling in the watery plunged in to his assistance and succeeded in fescuing him.The person proved to be Capt.Pate, There were two lady passengers on board ; they and the chambermaid were in the ladies\u2019 cabin at the time of the disaster, and were uninjured, After the boat took fire, one of the ladies sprang into the river, and was rescued by a gentleman from the shore, A skiff was sent to the relief of the remaining two, who were saved the moment the flames were shout to envelope them.At this time the deck was in flames, and it was impossible to rescue those who were in that part of the boat ; the number thus destroy ed has not been ascertained, Several sprang into the river and were drowned.Thomas Bates, the bar-keeper, found himself ahout one hundred yards distant, on a part of the hurricane roof.He was badly scalded and injured internally.It is supposed that five cabin hoys perished in the flames.Mr.R.C.Scandland, one of the passengers who got on at Carruliton, escaped uninjured, he being on the aft part of the hurricane deck.The Hoosier State came along about two hours after, and rendered considerable sid to the unfortunate sufferers.She brought fifteen of the wounded to this city.Some of them were taken to their friends, while those without home or friends were taken to the Hospital.When the news of the catastrophe reached Carrollton, the citizens turned out en masse to the relief of the sufferers.A small house on the bill, near the landing, was converted into an hospital, Beds were placed around on the floor, and many of the dead and wounded were placed upon them.The floor and bed clothes were covered with blood, The suffering of those wounded is represented ns heing awful in the extreme, The Telegraph, No.2, came along during the evening.The boat was landed, and her crew, officers, and passengers went ashore and rendered all the essistance they could, Three wounded were brought up on thé Telegraph\u2014one of them, a cook, died yesterday morning, W, G.Collord, one of the mates, is badly injured, and was taken to his home in Newport, Ky.A gold watch was found by the clerk, some distance from the river, the face, back, and handle broken off, The books and papers sro all lost.eee (From the St.Louis Republican, March 25th) Tne MoHancourT FoRORRIRS IN SANTA FR, \u2014The public has already been made acquainted, hy an cfficial order published by Major General Jesup, of extensive frauds comthilled on several olfi@ers of the United States tiny, by one Gustavus McHaréourt, We find the whole history of the matter to be about this : \u2014 MeHarcourt, who bas heen employed far à long PRISES ne ment, and shortly afterwards went with Cap E, to New Mexico.Shortly after îhe arriva] of Capt.E,in Santa Fe, his whole family wa stricken down by sickness, and in the cong of a few days he lost Lis wife, his hrother-in-lag and a servant, He was thus left wilh severaj small children, (one an infant,) without even the assistance of a servant, aud compelle] to fuifit nll the duties of father, mother, and sop.vant, in fact everything that appeitaius to go.mestic life, McHareourt, who, until recently, had alway enjoyed the highest confidence of all his employers, was therefore necessarily entrusted, tp some degree, with thu control of business, Afterwards, Captain Jo being several times absent from the post, on duty, the management of affairs was, during these intervals, left entirely to the elerk.In October last, Captain E., who was then at 5t.Louis, wus informeg by General Jesup of a deficit in one of the items of his quarterly account, ending Api) 1851, amounting to $5000.He now examined his books, in company with some confidential friends in this city, when he discovered, to his alarm and astonishment, that his books, (which were kept solely by Me!) had Leen artfuily altered in several entries in the then curren quarter's account, by hanging the figures, ang in two instances, entirely erasing the entries of amounts received from other officers, and thus reducing the amount to be accounted for, ag shown by the books, near $18,000 less thay was in fact received and receipted for, Pose facts appear upon the face of the books, when closely inspected.Captain L, immediately wrote to General esup, nequainting him with the extent, and a) the particulars of the fraud, and started at once to Santa Fé, in pursuit of MeHarcourt.The reverity of the weather was such (it heing in the winter) that he did not reach Santa F6 nutit the 9th of January, 1852.Ne suffered very much on the road.lle here leared that Mella.court liad forged his name, and that of Col.E, V.Sumner, to several drafts, which he sold, and had left about two months before lis arrivai, for Chihuahna, Capt.E., still pursuing him, started thither with all speed, but to no purpose.When he reached Fl Paso he foung that Mell, had succeeded in selling drafts forged by him as above mentioned, to the amount of about thirty thousand dollars, and had left Chihuahua about six week before, for Durango, travelling with great speed.Pursuit being now hupeless, Capt, 1.returned to St.Louis by way of San Antonio.A reward of $1,000 was offered by Capt, B, for the arrest and delivery of the culprit, which he is stil willing to pay.There is no definite information of the fiauds committed by Me- Harcourt, but enough is known to say that they will altogether amount to not less than $50,000 in the aggregate, Jtis a little singular that ne one suspected him in New Mexico, until infor- ration of these forgeries was received from the United States, Such was his high character, that he sold the drafts in Chihuahua, drawn for irge sums, withont any difficulty,

pay of the Culling line of steamers, for carrying the mails under the postal treaty with Great DBri- tain, it may be of importance to state that since this line comienced running, the amount of revenue received by our Post Office Department exceeds what has been paid to Collins by several thousand dollars.V'he following facts will verify the correctness of this statement, By the postal treaty, we pay the British government three twenty\u2014fourths of the posinge on letters carried by the Collins line, and we receive five twenty-fourths of the postage on letters carried by the Cunard line 5 consequently this amount should be credited to the Collins line.There should be credited to the Collins line the amount received for closed mails, and also the postage on newspapers ;

THE LATE GALE \u2014Distressing accounts of the effects of the late severe gale and snow storm continue to reach us.On Wednesday last, the stern of a vessel was washed ashore at Dennis, Cape Cod, with ¢ Colonia\u2019?upon it.1t was undoubtedly from the Danish brig Colo- nia, Capt, Block, which sailed irom Leghom Jan.24, for this port, and has for some time hewn looked for, The fate of her crew is unknown, bat there is strong reason to believe that all on board perished.The C, had a car- 80 of 125 bales rags, insured at the Equitable Office for about $5000, and a large quantity of maible for New York account, and probably insured in New York, She probably had some light freight in addition.We learn hom our Provincetown correspondent, under date of 8th instant, that on Turs~ day last, a large vessel struck on the outer bars, about two miles below Race Point, and went immediately to pieces.ller foremast, fore-topmas!, rigging, and some sails, together with most of the larboard side of the vessel, had come on shore, and indicated that the unfor- tanate vessel was from 300 to 500 tons burden, and was probably laden with salt, iron or something very heavy, as none of the cargo had come on shore.Her bottom could he seen at low water, As soon as the sea should become more quiet, something nore definite would be ascertained.Several chests of clothing and bedding, a bog of rags, a box of tables, another with 100 doz.eggs, and several other arlicles-had come of shore, believed, at Provincetown, to have been thrown over some other vessel, The ergs, for- nitare, &2, undoubtedly were lost from the steamer Si, Lawrence, as before reported.One of the chests of clothing had a card upon i « Isaac Bickford, Gorham, Me,\u201d\u2019\u2014 Boston Adv: HALIFAX AND BosTON.\u2014A propeller of about 700 tons was launched at Medford yesterday, by Mr.J.O.Curtis, When her machinery I$ fitted she is to ply between this city and Halifax, and is expneted to leave each place once a week, She will probably comments her trips early inJune.Her agents in this cily are Messrs, Clark, Jones & Co, who hath for some years past, successfully managed the line of last sailing brige, the Boston, Belle, Halifax, &c., which have kept up a very reau- lar communication with the capital of Norte Scotia, \u20141lid, Desparcn rrom New Onuzans-\u2014The time in the army, and who has, until the die= covery of these frands, always enjoyed a high reputation for integrity and efliciency, was engaged by Caph, L.C.Euston, in September, 1849, as clerk in the Quartermaster*s depart-' i Coan!
