bardly any- ihing which would denote this as the once grand frontier city and fortification of ancient Egypt ; whose mart was stored with the rich produets of Ethiopia and the East, and_ whose inhabitants stood high for valor and wisdom in the ancient world.À part of the old quay still remains, covered with hieroglyphics, from some of which are resolved the name of Psammiticus\u2014 a portal to the temple of the Pharoahs.A horribly mutilated statue of Osiris, and this is all if we may except a thick stratum of pottery and half-buried granite remains which covers the country more or less around, Fearfully wild and jagged as is the nutural scenery, the black basalt which every where abounds, ram- parted with the sterile yellow desert sands, gives to the whole country a most cursed appearance, for this is the very expression that formed itself in my wind, as | first gazed upon it from a lofty summit, and then turned 10 my Bible and read how the pride of the * Tower of Syene should be Inid luw, and this border of Fthiopia desolate.\u201d low often have we wiah- ed that we had somesceptical companion, that we might see the effect of all this upon his mind | that hie might accompany us thronghout the length and breadth of this doomed land, and see it in all irs wretcheduess, and poverty, and filth, and vermin, ss we have done.Then we would turn to the tweuty-uinth and thirtieth of Ezekiel\u2019s prophecy, that he might ree what a perfeet and fuithful daguerreotype the I'ro- phet has drawn\u2014how every jot and tittle has found its fulfilling counterpart here.We would walk together to those once renowned quarries which fill the suburbs of this town, and there we would see where the hammers of a thousand workmen had been briskly at work\u2014the mighty chiselled blocks, and grear obelisks lying there as fresh and perfect ne if the workmen were only nt dinner round the other side of the mountain\u2014\u2014and it is long before the mind ean divest itself of the illusion ; but, render, the men that hewed these stones have been mummies for two thousand years, nought but the scream of the wild eagle, and the howl of the jackal, has broken the death-like stillness of this spot, where once rose some of Iligypt\u2019s grandest temples and noblest obelizks, We loft our dahabeeh at Syene, and started for Nubian and Philæ hy the desert route.A broad highway opened before us lined with jutting rocks of most fantastic forms.Strange castles, and ginnt forms of Anakims, horrid and fearful, projected themselver against the evening rkv, And these rocks were many of them inscribed with the hieroglyphical names and exploits of kings, who three thousand years ago led their dark battalions nlong this route fur the conquest of Ethiopia and the South, A strange country this where the very rocks hy the rondride preach sermons and tell tales which even history has failed to utter.And T can never forget, when exhausted and almost fuinting through the heat, for the sun's rays were vet rcorching hot, how grateful to me was the shudow of one of these great rocks in this weary land, nor how cheerfully we reined up our restless auimal, and luxuriated in its welcome shade.Soon the road narrowed to a simple pass, and our little cavaleade proceeded in single file through one of the strangest and dreaciest passes through which it hs ever been my lot to pass.We had scarcely seen a human habitation since we left As- sorean, and che one or two human beings that we mot grinned and stared upon us most insultingly., A little naked urchin had brought us a Leantiful specinen of an Ammonite, and a woman offered us some glaks honda for bokshecsh.| But when we had gone n little further, and saw before us a running stream of chrystal water foaming upon ita banks and vases of the richest emerald green, scattered with palm trees, and partly covered with an Arab village, with \"groups of metry children, and herds of goats and camels Lrawsing, we forgot our heat and toil, and stood, and gnzed, and wondered at -the strange contrast, It was called Mahatta, -and near by flowed the Nile, upon whose waters we are again embarked, with our head fall of + Philae, and Osiris.; (Student\u2019s Travde in Egypt.) EGYPTIAN SUNSETS AND AFTER-GLOW,\u2014 The sunsets of Naples and tho Alps are nothing to the ono that we saw that night and continually saw on the Nile ; the Libyan hills on the right gleaming in purple and gold.And the okaltam range in tho Last, glowing with a thourand various shades, crimson, purple and dusky grey.and each crevice and each cavern had its peculiar hue ; and above a thin scirrus of clouds like a golden web enveloped all ; and projected against that orange sky new strange forms of apider-like palme\u2014and long necks of hopeless-looking camels, and dusky Arabs perched aloft with spear and gun and sabre and between alt and in the midst of all reposed 01d Nile, aa tranquil and resplendent and serenc ns an Alpine lake, and in it we could see another setting sun, and other mountains and trees, and ourselves too and little boat suspend ed like Mahomet's coffin in mid air, and it was pleasant to find how each little star let fall its duplicate as it came peeping forth in the Heavens above\u2014and when the sun had set, and all became still and solemn as the grave, and no sound was heard but the sakia\u2019s mournful creak \u2014then came the afterglow.Who has heard of Egypt and not heard of the afterglow, when it appears as if the sun, sorry that it had gone away s0 soon, had changed its miod and was coming back, and for A moment nature is well resplendent again, and then as suddenly dies, like the dolphin having its moat gorgeous hue to the lust.If T continually lived under such a sky how much better a man would I be! nor would the Apostles often have oceasion to ro- mind me, \u2018not to let the sun go down upon my wrath.\u2019 Common thoughts and common books seem profanity here, and sll bustle is hushed on our little bark\u2014and in one group we gather, and the tranquil narguilek aids the mind to deep and solemn thought.\u2014(Zbid.) Executions AMoNG Tue Hesaews.\u2014The Hebrews have no executioner, When a man was guilty of homicide the execution devolved on the next of kin, by a right of blood revenge.In other cases criminals were stoned by the people, the witnesses selling the example ; and when the king or chief ordered a person to be put to death, the office was performed hy the person to whom the command was given, And this was generally a person whose consideration in life bore some proportion to that cf the person to be slain, Thus Solomon gave the commission to kill Joab, the commander in chiel, to Benainh, a person of 30 much distine- tion a8 lo be immediately promoted to the command which the death of Josh left vacant.In fact, the office even of a regular executioner is not by any means dishonorable in the cast, The post of chief executioner is in most oriental courts one of honour and distinction.When thus there was no regular executioner, it came lo be considered a sort of Lonour to put a dis- tingoished person to death; and on the other hand, the death itsell was hanourable in proportion to the rank of the person by whom the blow was inflicted, It was the greatest dis- lioniour to perish by the hands of a woman or a slave, We see his feeling distinctly in the present narrative, where the twa princes much prefer to die by Gideon\u2019s own hand, than by thatof 8 youth who had obtained no personal distinction, AR to the hero commissioning his son to perform this office, it was perhaps partly to honor him with (he distinction of having slain two chiel enemies of Israel, as well as because the rules of blood revenge made it necessary that the execution of those who had slain his own brethren should either be performed by himself or by a member of his own family.It seems very probable, from all that transpires, that Oreb and Zeeb had sluim the brethren of Gideon after they had taken them captive, in the same way that they were themselves slain.\u2014Kitlo\u2019s Pictorial Family Bible.Tune Rotuseninp Lorrery.\u2014Theautbori- tics of Posen (says the London Times\u2019 correspondent) have enough to dn to answer the strange applications that are rometimes made to them by the Polish and German peasantry.The idea that has got abroad among them of the vast grants of land Kossuth has received from the ¢ King of America,\u201d does pot stand alone; another impression that has taken root in their winds is much more extraordinary; for some time past the officials have received numbers of applications for shares in a * Rothschild Lottery,\u201d of which they of course know nothing; but, on inquiry, it was found the peasants have been persuaded that the * great Rathschild\u201d has Veen sentenced to be beliead- ed! But from his intimate relations with the European monarchs he has Leen allowed to procure a substitute (if he can) by lottery! For this purpose a sum of many millions is devoted, all the tickets to be prizes of 3,000 thalara each, except one; that fatal number is a blank, and whoever draws it is to be decapitated instead of the celebrated banker! Notwithstanding the risk, the applicants for shares have been numerous, and the officials are scarcely believed when they explain to the deluded people that the lottery is a fietion,\u2014 The origin of the absurd report cannot be traced, but it has given the anthorities a good deal of trouble, The journals lament that any part of the population shontd be in auch à state of ignorance as to render belict in such a story possible.WANT OF INDUSTRY IN ITALY.\u2014 ITandreds of men in Italy are engaged in painting \u2018 Madonnas\u201d fur the cottages of the peasants, little daubs of the Virgin Mary, the penates of n au- perstitions race.Would it nut conduce in a greater degree to the prosperity of the country, if they abandoned a pursuit xo unproductive for the silk factory ov the flax mill?Vast fields of lint and hemp are produced in most parts of the peninsula;

The Railway Negotiation.\u20140pinions of the Press.Tue QUEBEC MERCURY.\u2014 We have recently referred to the letter of the Hon.Mr.Hincks to the Colonial Secrelary, in terms of just, though brief commendation of its manly and intrepid tone.We have now more fully to state our reasons, the more so, that some few journals have dissented from the general commendation expressed by the newspaper press of the colony of every shade of political opinion.Of that letter, the most important feature is the real definition of our present position towards the mother country.England, at the conquest, had à magnificent opportunity of establishing a troly constitutional system of monarchy in Canada.The constitutions of the Gothic model, such as thuse anciently prevailing in Castille, Aragon, and England, and at one time throughout Europe, but of which that of England is almost the only survivor, were based on Feudalism.Feudalism existed in force in Canada at the conquest.But the English, instead of availing themselves of the plastic condition of the infant state to rear a structure of Monarchical power in the image of their own cousti- tution, committed their usual error.that of estublishing a constitution on parchment, rather than moulding the circumstances of the country into a system similar to their own.To exemplify : the British constitution is unwritten, its institutes are the facts of British society, the balanced powers existing in the British State\u2014 for this some ignorant ranters, whu prattle about liberty and mean anarchy, have asserted there is no such constitution, because \u2018 a man cannot carry it in his pocket,\u201d ergo, because it is not the breath of a mun and cannot be blown away by the breath of & man; thus do these miserable desiructives rush into despotism through the portals of democracy! Here our greatest evil has been, that our constitution 2 one which * a man may carry in his pocket.\u201d The reason is this; the ministry at the time of the settlement of Canada as a new colony of the Crown, wished to give an appearance of representative institutions to Canada, and at the same time, preserve to themselves all the powers of an absolute government.A real constitution might have Leen obtained by the creation of an independent upper branch of the Legislature, as for instance, by the perpetuation of the primogeniture Law as to Seigniors only, and the bestowal of hereditary seats in the Legislative Council upon them.This was not the intention of the different English cabinets ; they desired, to unite strong executive powers with apparently popular institutions, and the result was a written constitution, and an Upper House named for life by the Crown.The consequences were the various agitations and troubles of this country.Finally, representative institutions in their greatest extent were granted to the colony, and the results are that menarchy and democracy are left face to face, without the intervention of those hereditary legislators who form barriers between them in England.In England an anti-colonial party in the interest of democracy has of late years been springing up ; this party aims at the increase of American power, at the disruption of the old monarchical alliances of England, and eveutually at the canversion of England itself into a commonwealth: The leader of these traitors, i8 Richard Cobden, a Lancashire calico-printer.His aud their views, are to separate Canada frum the Mother Country, as lier position on the erown of the union renders her an important instrument in the hands of a Tory Statesman, for the purpose of neutralising the influence of the union, should the latter power join with France against the castern monarchies of Europe.Our present position is that of an ally rather than a dependency of England, and Mr, Hincks' letter has for the first time officially proclaimed the fact.That letter is in the tone which it behoves us to assume while * the connection * is threatened by traitors in the Metropolis, whose desire is to revolationize two continents, and give up Christendom to Democracy.Lownon Mornina PosT.\u2014If ever, therefore, there was a case in which a parent state would be warranied, indeed might feel itself called upon, to assist in carrying out a great local object, as well of national, as of colonial interest, this\u201d railroad to the St.Lawrence is surely ne.A scheme for promoting and carrying out the work appears to have been entertained by the late Ministry, and agents from Canada & Nova Scotia would seem to have heen invited to discuss the project with the Colonial-office, in order that something definite might speedily he srranged to put in hand the great undertaking.Now, within a few days, there has been a letter published from Mr.Hincks, the agent appointed from Canada, which would seem to ~.imply that the Government of Lord Derby has \u201cwithdrawn from the intention of taking up the project as a natural concern, and has compelled Mr.Hincks to leave our shores under feelings of disappointment and vexation, and finding {hat the hopes which the colony hed been led to entertain that this work would be carried out with the effectual aid and support of England were nol likely to be encouraged by the government of Lord Derby, and that the project found no favour wilh his Coloninl Secretary.We ate exceedingly sorry for this, and thongh by no means approving the letter of Mr Hineks, which takes up lor himself and for Canada a position they &te neither of them in any way warranied by the'cifcumstances in assuming, yet we cannot help thinking that'the Colonial-office has misconceivëd the naltite of the case, and not su fliciently \u201cappreciated the feeling with which a work of this description is likely to be regarded by the prople of England, as well ssby the Colonists, This is not a'question in which focal interests or pettifogging for - : malities ought to be allowed to havé any qe whight whatsoever, A raîlway through Nova

Debates upon the subject in the local Legislature shall have heen circulated by the newspapers of the colonies throughout their whole length and breadth.Here, as it seems to us, was an opportunity offered to the new Ministry of winning golden lic opinion, and we think à perusal of the documents in question will convince the publie that Mr, Hineka has been, in the whole matter, au injured man, The gravest charge, (hat of removing one jail Physician and appointing another, in order to procure » collusive certifi- Gate of McNab\u2019s sickuess, is disproved by ates, opinions by promoting a popular work, which it is matter of reproach to our colonies and to the Imperial Government not lo have execuked at least five yeurs ago.It must oe some pounds, shillings, and pence consideration that has caused the project to he rejected\u2014some Damocles\u2019 swordlike imagination of the awful consequences of Joseph Hume\u2019s denunciation of the reckless profligacy of such an appropriation of the capital and resources of this improverished, over-taxed country?Such have been the motives, such the apprehensions that have resulted in depriving our colonies in Notth America of the aid they required, and had a right to expect, for the execution of the most magnificent, the most useful, and we may say the most necessary work that has yet been projected for their benefit, We can take upon ourselves to assure Sir John Pakington, that it he had holdly adopted the course of telling Mr.Hincks and his cosdjutor from Nova Scotia, that it was not a question whether the work should be executed or not but merely one of how it should be executed, and what extent of interest the Canadas, New Brunswick, and Nova Scotia, should be invited and allowed to possess in the scheme, and in the working of the traffic, when the railway should he executed\u2014if, we say, he had so received these deputies\u2014the public of this United Kingdom, and its capitalists likewise, would have gone with him (he whole length required; and, under his assurance of support, means would before this have heen found to organise a company, with branches in the colonies, so as to ensure the most rapid completion of this long desiderated work.We hope yet to find hat our Colonial Minister has not discussed the matter with Mr.Hincks in à pettifogeing spirit, and that when he lays the papers connected with the suhject before parliament, he will declare opinions not only not adverse to the execution of the work, even with British capital, but highly encouraging to the undertaking, and such as will lead to its speedy accomplishment, though by diffe~ rent means and through different agency, from those specially recommended, perhaps insisted upon, by one or both colonies, which it may have been the object of the (wo agents, and their duty to advocate in discussion with the Colonial-office.The Hineks-Vansittart Libel \u2014 Opinions of the Press.MonTrean Transcripr.\u2014 There appears in the Quebec Gazet/c about seven columns of correspandence and of argument, vindicating Mr, Hineks trom the recent attack made upon him in the MeNab lecters.That Mr.Hincks was innocent in (bis business, that the letters were forgeries, we never doubted.We came to the opinion on internal evidence, tested hy the accustomed legal rules, and we did uot hesitate lo say so at the first ; therefore, so far as we are concerned, the vindication is snper- fluous ; but, if any one else had previously an atom of doubt, the vindication is now complete, It is very well known that we have no parli- cular love for Mr.Hincks; and, perhaps.no one has had more rough and rude contests with him.But still we do not see that, coming 10 Canada, we should leave behind us our English sentiments of honor and good feeling ; and we do think that the scandalous charges preferred against him, without the authority of the real or reputed originals, was a violation of both.Mr.Vansittart, we do not believe, would knowingly do a dishonest action ; but he has shown a very great want of prudence, and a very great want of manliness, in not retracting an accusation which he could not support.His business was to justify if he could ; or, if he could not, to have sail so.We have never been sparing in the expression of our opinion of the conduct of Mr.Hincks to him, which we considered as bad as could be ; but no resentment ought to allow any man to lower his own sell respect by departing fiom the line of duty.\u2014The gravamen of the charge against MT.Hincks was that, from corrupt motives, he obtained the remission of McNab\u2019s punishment ; no one who knew anything of the late lord Metcalfe wou!d believe taat that high-minded and conscientious person would delegate the Prerogative, That it was, exactly, on which his Lordship took his stand, and neither Mr.Hincks, nor all his colleagues, conld bully him out of it, Bat, between a political offence and a piivale rascality, there is a wide distinction; both in morals and in honor.\u2014 The dates fully vindicate Mr.Hincks ; the news of the dissolution of the Lafontaine Baldwin Ministry, came downto Montreal on St.Andrew?s day, the 30th November, 1843, as we have good reason to remember forthe writer dined with the Society, and being known to be in close communication with a leading adviser of the Governor General, was asked more questions than it was discreet to answer ; the order for the liberation of McNab, is dated December 12, and signed by the Hon, Deminick Daly, Provincial Secretary.Mr.Daly was the only Minister who stood by Lord Metcalfe, with the exception, perhaps, of Messrs, Parke and Harrison, who were nol in the Cabinet ; Messrs, Vig-r, Draper, and Morris did not formally join him for some timeaïler ; though we believe their inclinations and intentions were well understood ; the only acting Minister was Mr.Daly, and this we can say, from a very inlimate knowledge of a gentleman whose abilities and integrity we profoundly respect, snd especially much abused by Mr.Bincks himself, that even if Lord Metcalfe, who appears to have given the matter his personal attention, was deceived, Mr.Daly was the very last man to have heen accessory, under the impulse of trieadship, to a job in favor of Mr.Hincks ; in fact, they disliked each other as much as two men well could do, and many?s the battle which we have fought for Mr.Daly.We thought Mr, Hincks behaved very ill to him, but that was only a personal opinion, perhaps influenced hy personal feeling ; and now, that we find Mr, Hincks slandered, and coming forward to vindicate his character like a man, we have not the slightest hesitation in saying so, and should feel ourselves unworthy of the position which we hope we occupy in public respect, if we did not do what we believe to be right.In the Quebec Guzette of Wednesday there is a statement of several columns in length, under the authority of the Hon.Mr.Hincks, with copies of correspondence, affidavits, &e., in which the whole of thut gentleman's transactions with Diigald C.MeN=b are explained, and the conspiracy against himself fully demon- sifited.Every letter published at the office of the Woodstock British American is a vila for- ery, proved to be so on the authority of Mc- Nab himself, who confessed the whole plot in a letter to Mr.Hincks, and also proved by the Records of the transaction which these forged letters professed to reveal, still existing in the office of the Provincial Secretary.\u2026 We ehall endeavour to publish the whole statement by degrees, as it is altogether too long for insertion even at twice,\u2014for it is but an act of simple justice to the aceused that the contradiction should be as widely circulated as the original libel.It is sufficient now to_say that the whole cherge is blown into the Air.\u2014 Montréaï Oourier.« di Pi ce Pa avctief ! in QUEBEC, 23rp JUNE, 1852.We have tu congratulate the Toronto Colonist upon the discovery of another matter of grievance against the Post Office department.Really our contemporary has been most indefatigable in his care of that particular branch of the public business.\u2014 First his palm itched for the contract for Postage Stamps, and failing to get it, he commenced a tirade of abuse upon the Postmaster General.This subject kept him in matter for n considerable time, and helped to fill up his columns ; but all things have au end, and even postage stamps will not last for ever By a continuous harping upon the same string, the subject became threadbare, and the Colonist was about to be left without any stone to fling at his favorite department, when \u201ca Merchant\u201d runs to the rescue, and they discover that the Postmaster has caused a rent to be paid for boxes in the Post Office\u2014-a serious grievance, truly, and one which afforded the Culonist an opportunity to exhibit a little more of his love to the functionary over whom he exercised such a striet supervision.But lo, à clause in the statute-book is discovered, which upsets the man of straw, and the Colonist is again obliged to retire.\u2014 He was not, however, destined to remain long without a missile.One of bis brothers of the press, the Hamilton Spectator, found out that Mr, Morris had insulted the mechanics of Canada, by going to purchase leather mail bags from Brother Jonathan.llurrah! says the Colonist, nothing like leather, and to work he goes to rouse the indignation of the Canadian tradesmen against the whole government, over the shoulder of the Postmaster General.Really now, the Colonist deserves a reward for his caro and advocacy of Canadian interests.Could not the mechanics, of whose claims he has coustituted himself the special guardian, make him some remuncra- tion.Leather is the subject of his care just now, say then a medal of good dimensions made of that material.13ut what can be the matter with the Colonist, we know not.lle denies ever having been aggrieved by the Postmaster General, and what can have induced him to launch forth in a warfare vgainst him, it becomes difficult to discover.We know the effect which the moon has upon certain dogs and we know that the cause of this effect has been for hundreds of years n matter of speculation, and must in all probability remain so.Now it is likely that the same cause which leads certain of the canine species to bay the moon, until they are deprived even of the power of a bark, las led the Colonist to keep upon the subject of the Post Office Department, until he, like his four-footed acquaintance, bas become absolutely worn out.But this subject becomes one for Canadians to settle.Will they support the government in this matter ?If they are consistent with their professions, they most undoubtedly will.They have been caliing long and loud for retrenchment, and even the Colonist himself has chimed in with the general demand.Now, retrenchment, we should suppose, constituted (at least a very important item of it,) in buying articles in the cheapest market.We stated in a recent number, that the bags were procured for 100 per cent.less than they could be obtained forin Canada, The Colonist may yelp and howl about insult as long as le feels able, but the people of Canada are uot to be gulled by any such cffusions.If he wishes to have protection inthe Colonics why does he not say so, and then go to work to bring about the consummation of this hobby.Although Lord Derby has failed in establishing protection in England, yet the brilliant genius of the Colonist wight accomplish the task here, and succeed in establishing a system of robbing the many for the benefit of the favoured few.SocIEry FOR THE PREVENTION OF Cru- ELTY TO AÂANIMALS\u2014From the London Morning Herald we learn that the twenty- eighth annual meeting of the Royal Society for the prevention of cruelty to animals, took place in Hanover-square rooms, London, on the 2nd June.À very large audience were present, including the children of the schools from Notting-hill and Brix- ton-hill, who were brought to hear the proceedings at the expense of a lady present.The Society Las been prosecuting its work with vigor and determination.During the last 18 years, 4000 prosecutions against persons, for ill-using dumb animals, have been proceeded with.I'he benefit of the Society, in a moral point of view, had also been very apparent.Any system which is caleulated to destroy that disgraceful feeling which would lead men to ill-treat any of God's creatures, and to inculeate feelings of kindness for the brute creation, must tend to elevate the moral sentiment of a community.The report of the Society, after touching upon many of the benefits which are likely to flow from the organizations, and the degrading tendencies of eru- olty to animals, says:\u2014* In reference to the practice of working dogs in carts, the Committee had not thought it advisable to introduce a bill this session ; but Mr, Buck- eridge, a member of the Society, had transmitted a sum of £50 towards obtaining an act of Parliament to abolish that infamous practice.\u201d It is almost a pity that some of the members of this humane society could not catch a bird's-eye view of our city, and they would see plenty to send them home weeping over the cruelties of man.The systom so common here of using dogs iris stead of horses, ns beasts of burden, is revolting to the feelings of any butthose who, by long continued custom, have become used to witness such scenes of cruelty, and aro {lierefore callous in the matter.We bave often observed a stoitt-looking Tellbw, whose dimensions would hardly admit of his getting into his dog cart, driving along at a most furious rate, whipping the dog cruelly, and shouting and hotloning to push the poor animäl:to greater plied.Out'dit Loon shen TN ras = make their way to the top of the hill, and the lazy lubber alongside, instead of lending a helping land, in many instances adding his own weight to the already too heavy burden, aud have been forced to exclaim, in the language of that sage statesman and prime minister, Fusbos, when he heard that his master, King Artaxomines, had een guilty of taking a \u201cdrop too much ;\"\u2014 * So when same donkay on the Blackheath road Falls overpowered beneath his heavy load; The driver's curse unheeded fills the air, For none can carry more than they can bear.\u201d It is really too bad in a city like Quebec, containing 40,000 inhabitants, and honored with the scat of Government, to tolerate such cruelty, Other cities have abated the nuisance.Montreal at one time was the scene of similar dog-driving, but the Corporation of that city have done their duty in this matter, Cannot something be done in Quebec?Is the subject not worthy of a passing notice?Or are our City Couneil- Jors su taken up with the discussion of matters of such weighty importance as to be unable to get down so low as to see this annoyance?We really hope that some of the Fathers of this venerable city will take the matter into their consideration.The only possible advantage that could be derived from the continuance of the system would be the possibility of some of our American friends paying us a visit just to see the ancients of Quebec driving about in their dog carts, Dr.J.BB.Daniell, a member of the Society, in addressing the meeting, called attention to the claims which that noble animal, the horse, had upon our sympathies.He appealed to the sympathy of the ladies, and complimented them by likening the horse in many respects to their fair form.\u201cThe horse,\u201d said he, * resembled a beautiful woman, in beauty of form, in the sleekness of the skin, in the expansive chest, in the tapering und beautiful form of the head, in the endurance of pain, and sweetness of temper.\u201d The Viscomte de Valmer, a gentleman belonging to a similar society in Paris, addressed the meeting in French.He assured the members of the Royal Society of the Liearty co-operation of the Paris Society in this noble cause of humanity ; and at the close of his address handed to the chairman letters to the Duke of Beaufort, the president ofthe Society, and the Marquis of Westminster, appointing them honorary members of the Paris Society.Tue CrysTAL PALACE.\u2014Woe visited last evening the moving picture of this celebrated scene, now on view at the Près-de- Ville Theatre, and could not but feel that we owed a deep debt of gratitude to Signor de Lamans, whose magic pencil has conjured up this mimic representation of the great original for the spenial edification of those who could not journey to London to see it.The first picture presented to us was a bird's eye view of the locality of the Crystal Pa lace; the building standing out prominently in the foreground, and in the back was seen a portion of the city of London, \u2014ineluding Apsley House, the residence of the Duke of Wellington, Westminster Abbey, and the river Thames, with its innumerable bridges.This picture seemed to take the audience completely by surprise, and exclamations of delight might be heard from all parts of the building at the beauty and splendour of the painting.The next was a view of the exterior of the building.Then we had presented to us the Royal procession procecding to the palace to open the exhibition.The Queen in her state carriage, surrounded by her household troops, and thousands, nay, hundreds of thousands of cager and enthusiastic people who had come from all parts of the globe to take part in this world\u2019s fair, and who now vied with each other in bidding England's Queen welcome.Never did royalty appear to better advantage than when aiding in the glorious work of encouraging the industry of the nations, and disseminating the principles of peace and good will among men.The opening of the Exhibition was the next view, llere we almost realize the throne and royal presence, and, so vivid and truth- like is the picture, seem to hear our gracious Queen make proclamation to throw open the portals, and join the venerable prelate in the prayer that a time may come, and speedily, when nation shall no more war with nation, and every man recognize a brother in his fellow-man, and the only strife on earth be the strife of industry.\u2014 Next we had a superb view of the whole nave, exhibiting its gigantic dimensions and beautiful proportions.Then the nave in all its parts, showing the British and foreign departments filled with the products of every nation, not omitting those of Canada, which made a distinguished appearance on the occasion.This exhibition acquires great interest from the event which it represents, an event which is destined to become an important era in the history, not only of a nation, but of the world.Future generations will point to the first of May, 1851, as an era in which was fully perfected a noble system of peaceful and honorable national antagonism.Tere in this building was collected the skill and industry of every nation on the globe, and on it was seen floating in the air the national flags of every country, Here the nations, who, within the last half century, havé met so often upon the field of battle to shed cach other\u2019s blood, vie only in the friendly rivalries of toil and ingenuity.Every inch of this building, every pillar and pane of glass possesses an enduring interest.We commend heartily this exhibition to the attention of our readers, We cannot by description convey any thing like a satisfactory idea of the Panorama, and we therefore can only bid the curious go and see it for themselves.We should not omit to mention the performances of Professor Damis Paul, the talented organist and pianist of the Cathedral, Montreal, who introduced the national air of each country, and elicited the applause of the audience.The instrument upon which he performed was one of Mossrs.T.Gilbert & Co.'s celebrated solian attachment pianos, similar to-that which was awarded the prize at the exhibition, Among the passengers in the steamer Montreal, yesterday weto i\u2014Lord and Lady Wharncliffe,

oF BUNKER Hice.\u2014The New York Journal of Commerce relates the following as a fact satisfactorily authenticated :\u2014 An intelligent and_ very respectable gentleman, by the name of Ebenezer Snell, whois still living at the age of 80 and upwards, was in a corn field witha negro, on the 17th of June, 1776, in the township of Cummington, Mass, 120 miles west of Bunker Hill by the course of the road, and at least 100 in an air ine.Some time during the day negro was lying on the ground, and remarked to Ebenezer that there was war somewher, for he could dis- tinetly hear the firing.Ebenezer put his ear to the ground, and also heard the firing distinctly, and for a considerabls time.He remembers the fact, which made a deep impression on his mind, as plainly as though it were yesterday.Few instances are on record, of cannon being Lieard at so great à distance on land, especially on land of irregular surface and abounding with fovests.a maguificent steamer now building

Dirricuury.\u2014The Preston and Longridge Railway in England has been closed in consequence of the locomotive power, carriages and rolling stock being seized by the sheriff and sold under execution.A libel suit of considerable interest has just been concluded in Dublin.Tt appears that Mr.Birch, the editor and proprietor of the World newspaper, has been guilty of a most disgraceful attack upon the character of one Mrs.French, à young widow of considerable standing and respectability, and daughter of Mr.Abraham Brewster, a Queen\u2019s Counsel, with whom she was residing.The cause of provocation was some remarks which Mr.Brewster had made while acting as counsel for the defendant in the ease * Birch vs.Somerville,\u201d derogatory to the character of Mr.Birch, who exasperated at what he was pleased to look upon as most insulting language, commenced a most violent and unwarranted attack upon the family of Mr.Brewster, especially upon Mrs, French, whom he no doubt considered as a fit subject for bis venom.In his desire therefore to injure the father he recklessly calumniated the reputation of the daughter.In consideration of his having openly confessed the libels and made a public acknowledgment to the parties, his sentence was not so heavy as it otherwise would have been ; he was sentenced however Lo twcive months\u2019 imprisonment in the common jail.Russia Army.\u2014Jt appears that the Polish Nobles of the Lithuanian provinces are not at all desirous of entering into the Russian service.They have obstinately refused to accede to the invitation of the Government to become incorporated into the body of the Russian Nobles.This stand on their part has ealled forth a very severe ukase from the Emperor of Russia, who scems determined to enlist all parties into his armies.The following is an extract from the ukase : \u2014 \u201c It has Leen our wish that the Polish nobles of the western government of Korouo, Wilsea, Grodno, Minsk, Wollignia, Podolia, and Kiero might vie with the Russian nobles of every denomination in testifying their loyalty by discharging their daties as faithful subjects in the service of our victorious army, or in that of the civil service.To our great grief these hopes have never been realised, independently indeed, of a few isolated exceptions which are consequently, deserving of the greatest praise and acknowledgment.\u201c The great majority of the young nobility sthio belong to wealthy families remain idle and mand entirely aloof from service.These senti- wents so utterly opposed to the simple duty of a true nobleman can no longer be tolerated, and we therefore command :\u2014 \u201c1, The sons of the noble landed proprietors in the above-named governments, who do not belong to the Russian Church, and who have not less than 100 souls under their jurisdiction, shall, when they have attained the age of 18 years, be sent into the service, either as ensign or cornet, if they can pass their examination ; if not, they must enter the ranks as privates with the title of \u2018 Noblesse, 2.Those shall be exempt from this who voluntarily offer 10 enter the service between the ages of 16 and 18: they shall be at liberty to select their regiment and the department of arms which they wish to follow, though uot without previously passing their examination.\u201d Another ukase has been issued having the same end in view, namely :\u2014the increase of the army, to the effect that, those Israel- itish communities which are still in arrears with their taxes, shall supply one full-grown recruit for every 200°

his wife and children quickly starting from their beds met him on the stairs, when he faced about, and descending to the room, and throwing a rapid glance upon each of the distressed group, he as quickly applied a razor to the left side of his neck, cutting a horrible gash, and at the same instant exclaiming, ** Remember, I die innocent.\u201d \u2018This aet and this declaration were repeated three times in rapid succession.On an examination of the wounds, after death, by the surgeon in attendance, it was ascertained there was a slight wound ou the scalp, occasioned, as was believed, by the discharge of the pistol, which failed to do the work intended.The miserable creature who was the moving cause of these distressing consequences, has confessed that the charge was wholly untrue, and without the least cause or provocation on the part of Mr.Smith.The cause of this affair is a man named [lenry Tiles, foreman in the N.Y.& E.R, R.machine shop, who accused Mr.Smith of having improper intercourse with his wife, with a view of extorting money from him, and on the false oath of Tiles\u201d wife, Smith was arrested, tried, and acquitted.Smith took it so much to heart that he committed suicide.The wife then coufessed her perjury.On the facts getting wind, the inhabitants burnt \u2018Tiles\u2019 house and captured him.\u2014N.Y.paper.CLAIMS AGAINST THE STATE OF ILLINOIS.\u2014 Governor French, ot Illinois, has sent in a messagetothe Legislature advising compliance with the offer of Thompson & Forman, for a settlement of their outstanding claims.He says: ** Permitmetoinvite your partienlar attention to the claim of Messrs.Thompson & For\u2014 man, of London.This claim, arising ont of an original contract for railway iron, has lon heen the subject of negotiation between the state and that firm.The correspondence in re~ gard to it was laid before the Legislature at the last session, but no action was taken upon it.After carefully investigating the subject of the claim ¢ I am fully satisfied that their last proposition is as favorable as the State can expect to receive, and is perhaps just to both parties, They offer 10 surrender to the state 56 state bonds which were deposited as collateral security with them, which with tle interest due upon them, amount to about $96,000, and also relinquish any lien they may have upon nearly $1,000,000 of state bonds now in the hands of the (rustees under the deciee of an English Chancery Court, for the sum of $13,396,70, with the interest from Ist January, 1861, to the present time, The correspondence preceding this proposition is printed in the reports of the last session, and being too lengthy to more than refer to here, I can only invite to their examination.The urgent necessity of closing up all ontstanding claims against the state, will excuse the urgency with which I press (his matter upon your attention \u2014(New York Sun) LATE MorMoN OuTRrAGE.\u2014In a letter just received by Major Louis Vasquez from his partner, James Budger, from their trading post on Green river, he is advised that a Mormon named Moore came there under the instructions of Brigham Young, and established a ferry across Green river, and said that any American who should attempt to establish a ferry on Green river, would be fined by him, (Young,) one thousand dollars.Tosay nothing of the outrage, under any circumstances, committed by the Mormons, through their Governor, in attempting to throw obstacles in the way ol travel on the great thoroughfare across the plains to California, where nearly all the travel must go, it becomes an act of great high-handed imposition, when we state the fact that this ferry is outside the houndaries of the territory of Utah it being in 42 deg, north latitude, We slso learn that Gov, Young insists, that after he has placed whomsoever he will at the ferry, he then demands, and will enforce, the collection of 10 per cent, on all monies collects ed ;
