the Committee which had sat in the last year had fully answered the purpose for which it was appointed, though it might now be perhaps necessary to explain some of the circumstances which led,to the appointment of that Committee.Lt was to (r thre merits of the experiment in sending emigrants from the south of Iréland to the provinces of Upper Canada.At the tine of moving the estimates to carry the plan into execution.objections were started, on the ground that it was inexpedient and dasultory, and in consequence that vote was very reluctantly Figen.In 1825 n Committee sat, and the evidence received by it proved that the project of emigration had sucreeded, beyond all doubt, as far\" as concerned the individuals that were seit outs Île would call the attention of the House to the state of Ireland, at the time the emigrants were transplant Pies bu they would accupy 20.000,000 ed.The evidence of the Bishop of Limerick and others, showed | 275 was truly de for the purposes of plunder or pauperium.It was from this class of persons that the emigrants were selected, and, under the superintendance of Mr.ftobibson, removed to Upper Canada.No less than 120 families were sent vut, who by this time were fuirly veutled and located upon a suil, which, vince the days of the creation, had uever been disturbed by the band | of mun, and which by the mere scratching of a hoe or turnin up of u spade, would yield as rich a barvest as the fines spot \u2018 of land in England, with all the aid of machinery, (Hear, hear.) The emigrants had already estimated their property at £30,000 value ; he did not mean to say that auwount was sterling, but the average of the land which by this time is well cultivated.Thus had a miserable class of labouring persons been removed to a land at once fertile and productive, The next grand point o1 success was, whether the setilers were satisfied: he assured the House such was the case, and read several letters from the emigrants 10 the Governor of the colo- uy, informing his Excellency of their perfect sativfaction and gratitude fur removal.\u2014\"The evidence of Colonel.Talbo:, who P.Maitland in hs visit to the emigrant settlements below York, was confirmatory of this statement, and proved by a letter which he brought with hin to England, that they considered the settlement as their ter- ritoiies, aud declared hey were ready to protect it from ine vaders, fuut by the sword, by the use of their shiltelahs 1m (Laugliter.) Ludeed, the whole of the accounts which had heeu brought to Kaglaud of the emigrants, corrobo:ated the opiniou that the setilers were flourishing, and would, under a general colonization.prosper stil further.The evidence produced before the Committee proved that if the success of the plan for emigration weat ou progressively to improve, there was little doubt but that the capital advanced to the emigrants might he by them repaid out of the produce of their labours, The Hon Gentleman urged the benefits which would emanate to the emigrants by a thorough colonization, and contended that ifaided by the powerful co-operation of different parishes in Lngland, the original intentions might be carried into effect withadvantage, He would take one parish as a sample ; the parish of Shipley, in Sussex, for instance, the rental of which was £2599, whilst the poor\u2019s-rate amounted to £9914.In this parish there were upwards of 232 regular labouring meq out of employ.and thrown upon the parih; who, if removed to Cauada woud instantly rise from the degradation of pauperism.and perhaps amiss fortunes.The pangadopted at this parish was, that the occupiers of land should hire these labourers as the rate of one man to every estate of £10 value; and he that holds a farm of £100, takes nine persous into is employ, although he isnot able to find employment for more than six, and has consequently three men upon his hands to pay for whom he cannot find work.He koew from his own knowledge that the poor rate payers would gladly pay one half of the \u2018expen ses of emigration to be reiieved from the expense of the parish rates.The cost of the emigration might be advanc.d upon interest, aud the lenders would soon find the benefit of their loan, in the perceptible and .almost instantaneous diminution of peor rates, which would ensue.The Right Hon, Gentleman thea proceeded to read a letter received by Mr.Robinson frown some of the emigrants, who therein spoke of the comforg they enjoyedin tie colonies.In the year 1823, 120 p- rsons were removed: and in 1623, 1200 heads of families, Now, if it was sren that the removal of this uumber had been attended with benetit, who could advise tire House to pause in its efforts, tHe would contend, that the introduciion of capital into à coun- iry decreased labour.ln the report- of the select commi'tee ou the employment of the poor, which sat some tine back, it was stated, that though labour was cheaper in Ireland (han in England, the agricuitural produce of the latter was not su dea: as that of Ireland, This fact might appear anomalous ç but it was accounted for by the defective state vfimplemeuts, To increase the capital, then of a country so circumstanced, would be to increase its distr.ss by dutroducing machinery, which would diminish the rate of wages.Petitjons had been presented from Glasgow, complaining of the distressed and hopeless condition of the artizans theres and he proposed that evidence should be taken before the Committee, to ascere tain if emigration would be attended with beneficial effects, Manufacturers, it was true, were not always the best agriculturists, but the artists who emigrated seven, eight, and ten years ago, were now floarishing in Upper and Lower-Canada.ifthe wages of artizaus were tound, fur a series of years, sufficient, it might be properly coucluded that the population was pot redundant, notwithstanding that there might be occasional variations; but if, for a series of years, the wages proved insufficient, they should infer just che rever-e.At Biackburn, in 1814, the average price for weaving calico was Ys.6d.per piece.Inl1B26 it was only 1s.9d.Under the Poor Laws sys em persons who had obtained a legal settlement there, were thrown back upon the town; that and machinery had, in the course of ten years, effected the difference in the prices and what was the consequence?The distre-sed were led to believe the destruction of machinery would he beneficiai \u2014cha- they should derive Lenefitfrom what must rather work (heir intallible ruin.\u2014(Hear, hear.) They ougutiustead to be told to economise when they got more than would supply their Average wants.Manchester contained a population of 120,000, out of which number 8990 families, or 14,600 individuals, of whom 7900 were in a fitstate to work, were destitute of employment.Of these 3660 were irish, who had been removed at the rate of 6s, 31.py; b person, ft had been said.that it was easy to force capital, and co- fonize at home; this might be a subject for investigation by the Committee, but he doubted its practicability, He should conclude with moving, that a select Committee be appointed, to consider the practicability of promoting the emigration of the poor trom the United Kingdom,\u2014The motion having been seconded aud put by the Speaker.Mr.GRATTAN objected to the motion, because he considered itillu-ory, and calculated 10 lead the country astray, If any remedy were required, it could be obtuined without a Coma mictee, by parishesapplying for Bills.He thought the course pursued by the Right Hon, Gendeman to partake of the Irish character, or from 1899 to 1825 a considerable sun of money wis spent to effect emigration 5 and now after it was done, the House was applied to for a Committee, that the subject might be considered.(Hear, bear.) He was persuaded that Ireland would be in a very different state if the landowners would but attend to their duty.Mr.Munro, a Scatch gentleman, had said in his evidence, that land in Derry was worth £5 an acre, and that it was not worth more than £1 an acre jn Kerry, though the amount of population was less than in the first meurioned place, What then could create the difference, but the want of proper attentian on the part of the landowners?Mr.Garrett had recommended the employment of capital in fisheries and roudmaking athome, En his (Mr.Grattan\u2019) opinion, this would be by far the better course ;

from 62, to 63s, the duty would ve 16s.3 from 63s.(0 64s.the duy.would be 125.3 from 64s.(0 65s.the duiy would be 105.5 su (hat when the price rose to 70s, the duty would cease, or amoung only to the nominal duty of 1s payable at the Custom House,, and importation be in effect pertectiy free.On the other hand.there would be an increase of two shullings duty in the descende ing scale ; so that when the price fell to 55s the duty would be 80s which would in effect be a prohibitory duty.Et is che earnest desire of his Majesty's Government even between the agriculturist and the importer ; casting, I adinit, the balance in point of principle, trade ; but casting it, I am also re price, in favour of the agricufturist, [ cannot anticipate any.objection to this proposition from those who have insisted of unlinited importation ; but it may {| am aware, be urged by.the advocates for prohibition, that if there be any point at which we are ready to give them a prohibitory duty, why not concede to thew at that point an absolute prohibition.fn (he first place, it is no light matter with reference to a subject which bas been not only for years, but for ages under the cone sideration of Parliament, that there is-no instance of prohibis\\ tion having ever been admitted as a principle in legislating - upoa the Corn Laws.Even during a series of Years, particu larly froin 1670 to 1774, when it was the object of Parliament not only to discourage importation, but to encourage the exportation of British coru, that discouragement Of Unportatio ith respect to the mode of duty, l' hasa th thik make up tor deticiencies, and tend to g.ater detail than\u2018it is my in= Upon the best conside- Gus.as the average price, of\u2018évery\u2019 » to hold the scales.in favour of the open ady to admit, in point of was manifested not by prohibition, but by duty.Itis besides\" desirable, that if there is 10 be a trade in corn at all, it should be conducted, as far as possible, on the principles of other trades, in a sober, regular course, and not by perpetual jerks and impulses arising out of extraordinary emergencies.(lear, hear!) 1 am persuaded, that if importation pe always free, \u2019 taking sufficient security against an inundation of tre home market, it will How in a regular equal Current, supplying the.real wants of the country, without overflowing it; instead of rendering the trade as it now does, and inust continue to do, if the principle of prohibition were admitied, a perpetual series of alterations between a droughtand a deluge.(tear, hear f) L think this project will tend to equalize he prices, and keep that equalization of prices steady.The market will assume such a steadiness, that iustead of atone time, and 33s at another, the vibrations will be found to.be limited within the smail circle of 538 to 65s.Lt will get rid of another evil of very great maznitude\u2014I allude to the abuses - of the system of averages, (Hear, hear, hear!) When, as L have already stated, a fraction of 5d one way, and 2d the other, shut the ports, when they ought to have been open, and opencd them when they ought to have been shut, it is impossible not to entertain some suspicion of the soundness of the system of averages.By this plan the averages would be declared weekly 3 and what room can there be, in the course of a week, for deep spec\u2018lation ?Ln an in\u2018erval of three months, it is possible for great capitali-ts to produce an effect upon prices by unfair means, But under the new arrangement, when the average of one saturday will be overturned by the average of the next Saturday, what tem tation\u2014what opportunity can there be for the commission of vindicate the respeciabilily of the corn trade, which will ag.sume, even in the eyes of those by whom it has been most suspecied, a character more analogous to the regular trade of British merchants in other branches of commeree.The plan will also get rid entirely of the possibility of such an interference on the part of the l£xecutive Goverpment, which some gentlemen refer to with great complacency as a cure, but which 1 - consider anaggravation of the present system, Lam perfectly confident, and so are colleagues, that \u2018we did perfectly right some months ago, to take upon ourselves the responsibility of admitting corn not admissible by law.But though we were right in taking care of the public good, we were not unconscious al the time, and we have since received painful informativa that while we did à great public good, we did much private misclifet\u2019s for the measure which was adopted to save the coun try from the suffering which would have followed a searcity,.bad the effect of Overturuing more than one private fortune.\u2014 Honourable gentlemen talk glibly of responsibility, and tauns Ministers, as if they would have been incapable of Glling (hein situations if they had hesitated to exercise an extraordinary dis: cretion in such an émergeucy.L do not say, that under simi: lar emergency, we should not be ready to act with similar dew Y cision 3 but though ihe emergency justified the exercise of au extraordmacy discretion, if js surely ineambent upon Ministers to endeavour (0 prevent recurrence of such an emergency.These-are some of the benefits which this plan presents 10 the House 3 and it it should dppedr upon trial, that interests which are now supposed tv be wide as the poles asunder, should by this plan be approximated more nearly rhan they believe théare selves to he possible, such à result would be womh ait che rest: It would tend to sweeten the ill blood which has too long subs: sisted between two classes which now Jook with jealousy at cach othery and to irreconcilenble.These are the principles on which the plan of his Mujesty's Ministers is founded 3 these are the objects which hey propose to carry into effec.1 have now only (o commit ¢ resolutions which 1 have to propose to the-judgment of tag a fluctuation between 112s fraud 2 The plan will tend to Unie interests which have appeared to be almost 25 a, 7 Committee à and L'entreas the House, whutever abjections they ny een tie plun liuble to in: maiters of detail, to receive it, vit ls intended'to be, in the light of à peace-uffering from bis Ba euy's Government, und us the best means which my-noble iend'at tbe head of the Government.conld have proposed, of récanciling, canlicdng interests.Ln this spirit the plan buy en propped, dod in this spirit I trust ic will be receiveds\u2019\u2014 Hear, hear.) ;

but when we saw it, the head was gone, The length of the pedestal, ihe height of the shoulders, and the length of the statue, measured, in each of their respecuve parts, nine feet, 1 should venture to suggest, that this staiue might have reference to Daniel in the Lions den, and that it formerly stood over ote of the gates, either to the palace, or of the Hanging Gard-ns.LU is natural to suppose that so extraordinary a miracle would have been celebrated by the Babylouians, par.ticuiarly as David was afterwards governor of their city.\u2018The prophet was also governor of Susa, (the Sushan in scripture,) where he frequently weal in the discharge of tus official duties, and at which place he died.A short time ago, Susa was visited by some French officers in the service of the Prince of Ker- wanshub ; amvongst other antiquities, they found a block of white marble, covered with Babylonian characters, having sculptured on it the tigures of two men and two lions.This may also allude to the same event.\u2014Keppel's Journey from India.\u2018Ihe Hunterian Society is at present engaged in the performance of a series of experiments on the subject of the human bloud, its properties, component parts, operations, entire system, and 18 co-existence with vital principle, The experiments are intended to discover the truth of certain doctrines with regard tv the human blood, promulgated by Doctor Barry.At the last meeting of the society on the 27th Jany, the result of a very curious experiment was deatied.The stomach of a subject just expired was opened, and the pulsation of the heart was disuncily perceived for about twenty minutes after, \u2018I'his tact alone demonstrates that the cessation of vitality was notin consequence of the termination of the cir- curation iu the blood.several similar curious experiments were detailed, and it is intended, when'the result of ail shall be ascertained, to submit it in an authentic form to tie public.\u2014 Edinburgh Observer.The Statistical table of the States of Europe, published annually by the Almanack of Gotha, has loug enjoyed the esteem uf the learned of all countries.\u2014'f'hat for 1827 1s drawn up wid increased care and correctness.For instauce, the revenue of Russia, which was estimated at ouly 268,00,;,000 of francs, is now stated at 338,000,000, a saw that is exactly equal to the revenue of Austria.That oF Prussia, which was stated at 247.000,000, is now estimated only at 193.0.0,000, The sum of the revenues of these three Powers inake a total of 859,000,000, and that of France is 820,000,000.Thus we see that this hing- dom is not only asrich as Austria, Russia, and Prussia wgether, but thatit has an over plus of 51,000,000.which is equal to the revenue of several powers of the second order, such as Portugal, Sardinia aud Sweden.« England, accordivg to the same lable, will raise this year a sum of 1,4LU,000,00u, but the interest of its debt being 750,000 00Y, there will: remain 669,000,000 for the public expenses.For this reason, tbe budget for every branch ot the public service is smaller, witha few eacépliuns, than that whicli is allotted to, the same branch by the French « hambers.Lt appears that pn an average the Frenchman con= tribute 11 per cent, of his income to the public expenditure, while the Englishman contributes 25 per cent.~ Elite.From the London Literary Gazette of Jan.27.We have now before us news froin Sierra Leone, of the 8th ult.at which recent date we are informed there were no fresh arvivals either from Captain Clapperton or Major Laing.Our correspondent, however, alludes to the report which bad been in circulation, respecting the death of Mr.Dickson, and informs us that jt has been satisfactorily contradicted by a remarkable circuinstance which nas conferred some celevrity on that gentleman.Oa his arrival in the Shah country, it seems, the influence of M de Souza, waich had been of s0 much service to him near the coast, began to fail, and the Shah natives, (as is usual with these African tribes), made a number of petty excuses for the purpose of retarding his progress, the chief vf which was, that the Fetish was nt yet favourable to his advance, ln proof of this they shewed him the Ietish, which was indeed most unpropitious to his wishes, Upon this obsta.le being su presented, Mr.Dickson asked for aud obtained permis- siôn to try White-man LIetish.Among other apparatus with which he was hiberally provided, there happened to be a galvanic battery, and this he erccted in the presence of the Shah peopie.He then requested a fowl vo be killed; and having immediately submitted it to the galvanic action, the dead bird performed the phenomena so well kiown in izngtaud ; fluttered, shook its nead and limbs, and alnost ficew away \u20141to the inexpressible horror and cons ernation of the amazed natives.lu short, there was no resisting such a miracle 3 they instantly concluded that his Fetish was conclusive, and begged that he would march out of the country with a, much haste as possinle.Mr.Dickson, by this ingenious expedient, thus atiained his principal object; hut he had great dificuity in procuring carriers for his baggage, such was the alarm produced by galsa- nism in Africa.Since this time, nothing fur her had peen heard of him, which the writer considers to be auspicious; for, had he died (he says).the news must have reached the coast, [ We presume that the informatiou contained in the foregoing, has been obtained from the Africans, who come tu Sierra Leone from the interior.} : The Shah here mentioned, is, we imagine, he Shar, so spelt in the letters received in May last, (see Literary Gaz.of the 27th of that month ) which state that Mr.Dickson had obtained leave from the King of Dahomey to proceed thither, and had actually left his court oii the 31st of Dec 1825, with fifty arined men, and a hundred bearers to escort him to his destination.Shar is there said to be seventeen days journey towards the north, and situated to the south-west of Yawry or Yaouri.lt was to the latter that Major Laing, according to oue statement, proposed to descend from Timbuctoo, when the river was swollen in August.and it was also fur Varoui that Capt.Clapper- ton wrote (Hio, 22d Feb.last) he was then about to set off General View of Lima.Description of the view from Mount Cristoval, an eminence of difficult ascent, which overiooks the city and the surrounding country for many miles :\u2014 \u2018* We passed torough the Plaza, or great square, where among the crowds we met the fair Limavians iv their saycsy mantos,fine, martial looking otlicers in their gay umforms,coin- me c:al and civil characters discussing the news of the day, pea- sats with heir picturesque poachos, high-crowned and broad- brimmed hats\u2014N re and there a priest with his bluck robes.\u2018The walks around the - ure are covered by the projeciion of the buildings; the Goverment Palace, alow building, is ou volume is mentioned as likely to contain the History of the one side, and on another is the cathedral.The market is held in the square, in\u2018the centre of which is a brazen fountain, A handsome gateway led us upon the broad bridge over the Rimac, which is about\u201d 220 feet across, with little water dt this season.A beautiful public walk lies along the elevated bank, in reaching which we passed a chapel, said to have been built by Pizarro, At the foot of Mount Cristoval is a spriug, which supplies the Baths \u2014rudely built, but commodious.\u2018The hill is nbout 500 or 600 feet above the level of the river, and difficule of ascent.The only vegetation at this season of the year consists of air-plants here and there sprouting from the granite rocks, 4 The view from the summit is delightful and varied.Below\u2014 _ the city of Lima, coverlng a great extent of ground on both sides the Rimac : a mass of dusky, mud-roofed buildings, with H nuwerous spires and cupolas rising above.The squares were \\ all-1aid open to our eyes, and we could distinctly sce the life and busnie ju the grand tluza, Direcily below us were the Baths, the amphitheatie for Bull fighis, the public walk filled witn the fashion of Lima, and the white walls and pagoda-like form of the Panthon.At the distance of rix miles iv the weet, .the town of Calluo, with the shipping in the haibour; further south, the blud' of Chorilios, near which we could discover the breakers\u2014and the island of St.Loreuzo, round the point of which a ship was passing.Towards the west the calm surface of the Pacitic was spread before us to the horizon.2 On one side the villages ot Mugdelena (Bolivar\u2019s residence), and Mitlafloves, among several others, were seen rising over the trees, In he east the Cordilleras rose igh against the sky, their suummits covered with asow 3 whiie at (heir fect lay fertile vallies, covered in every direction with numerous plantations.\u2019 \u2014NeweYork Daily Advertiser.| ! } \u2014\u2014\u2014e ;

disant avec le proverbe ** Point de Nouvelle, bonne Nouvelle,\u201d et en eifet les mauvaises ne sont souvent que trop promptes à nous parvenir.Nous allons cependant communiquer à nos lecteurs un epitome des dernières qui nous soul parvenues et qui vont jusqu\u2019au 23 Février de Londres.Nous commencerons par celles de la Grèce dont ies affaires, avec le retour du priutems, vont vraisemulablement être remises sur le tapis.Les Nouvelles que nous avons regues de ce pays sont comme à Pordinaire vagues et vraisemblablement plurôt ce qu\u2019on souhaite et Ion espére que des réalités.Quoiqu\u2019il en soit elles nous apprennent que les Grecs ont répoussé l\u2019ennemi et l\u2019ont forcé après plusieurs combats en leur faveur dans lesquels les Tures ont fait de grosses pertes, de se retirer dans une position où ils se trouvent étroilementserrés.Ces nouvelles nous apprennent encore que les Grecs ont reçu des sec- cours d\u2019Europe et d\u2019Amérique en munitions de guerre et de bouche et en vaisseaux de guerre, de sorte que,à ce qu\u2019on écrit de Marseille, le Lord Cochrane se dispose à quitter cette ville pour prendre possession du Commandement des armées Navales de la Grèce et à aller faire trembler le croissant jusque sous les murs du Serail de S.H, Nous ne, serions pas surpris si, nouveau Napoléon, Lord Cochrane ornant sa tête d'un turban, s'annonçant l\u2019I-nvoyé du Prophète et se mettant à la tête des Janissaires mécentens, nous le voyions entrer en conquérant dans la mosquee de Ste.Sophie pour s\u2019y entendre proclamer le successeur de Mahmoud après le massacre de celui ci par ses propres sujets.Depuis un demi siècle nous avons été témoins d évenemens encore plus extraordinaires, - Quantaux nouvelles de l\u2019Espagne et de Portugal elles continuent à être l\u2019objet de spéculations politiques qui vraisemblablement n'aboutiront à rien.Quelques escarwouches entre les insurgens et les Constitufionalistes auront lieu tant que les premiers pourront recevoir leur paye ou trouveront le moyen de piller, ce qui est la même chose pour eux, ou bien jusqu\u2019à ce que, de ce requis, les troupes auxiliaires viennent mettre fin à leurs déprédations.En France les orateurs des divers parlis dans les deux Chambres ont épuisé leur é\u2018oquence dans les vifs débats qui y ont eu lien au sujet d\u2019une loi pour reprimer la licence de la presse, qui rencontre de fortes oppositions, Le résultat n'était pas encore connu lors des dernières nouvelles.Lo Passons actuellement à celles de rotre mére, patrie qui sont de plus en plus favorables, quoiqu\u2019elle se resente encore partiellement du choc qu'elle a éprouvé dans le cours de l'année dernière.C\u2019est avec un vrai plaisir que nous nous empres sons d'informer nos-lecteurs que.la santé de Mr.Canning est rétablie au point qu\u2019il aura été en état de reprendre sa place - dans la Chambre des Communes le ler, de Mars dernier, époque PEN = à laquelle est fixée la discussion rélative aux loix concernant les giains.11 parait encure par les derniers nouvelles que la waladie dont le Lord Liverpoul a été attaquée, n'est pas d\u2019une nature aussi serieuse qu\u2019ou l'avait dit d'abord, «t qu'on espère qu\u2019elle ne puivera pas pour toujours le pays des services de cet habile et integre Ministre.Nos bons voisins toujours in- kénieux dans leurs spéculations politiques, semblaient déjà progdostiquer que la perte des services de ces deux membres du'Cubinet Britannique, entraiînerait un changement impor tant daus le sistéme de ce Gouvernemen 3 mais ils se trome pent bien.Ce governement est peut-être l\u2019uuique dans le moude qui agissant d\u2019après des principes certains.ue varie pas dans sa conduite.Ses mesures ne dépendent pas des opinions particulières de tel ou tel ministre et nul changement dans les individus qui composent le ministère n'en peut apporter dans le sistême qu'on y suit.On regre\u2018terait certainement la perte de deux Ministres tels que Mr.C.etle Lord L.mais on trou verait à les remplacer par d'autres, daus quelque parti qu\u2019ils fussent choisis, qui suivraient les mêmes erremens et marches raïent sur leurs pas.Les nouveaux venus oublieraient le rôle qu'ils ont joué dans les deux Chambres pour adopter celui de Ministres daus le véritable esprit de la Constitution, bieu surs que s'ils s'écartaient d'un seul pas du droit chemin, ils ne tar= deraient pas à se voir forcés d'abandonner le precieux banc de la I'résorerie pour reprendre leur ancien siège sur le banc sterile de l\u2019apposition.C\u2019est le résultat inapréciable de notre Constitution aussi admirable qu\u2019unique.Il parait qu'on s\u2019est occupé dans la Chambre des Communes des aflaires de ces Pro inces.On y a agité des questions rélatives à l\u2019émigration, qui à donné lieu à l\u2019appointement d'ua comité, et aux réserves du Clergé.Tans les discussions Mr.Hume a persisié dans ses vues anticoloaiales, mais en général on y découvre que I\u2019 Angleterre commence a sentiv le prix et Piwportance de ces Colonies, On se flatte même que les Mi- nistires sont disposés à favoriser le Commerce de nos bois.11 est question d\u2019une autre expédition vers le Pole Artique sous la conduite du Capitaine Parry.I! sera muni de bâti- meus qui pourront se naviguer ou se trainer sur la glace suivant les circoustances et qui sont destinés à approcher le plus près possible du Poie.Le bruit court encore qu\u2019on a reçu la nouvelle que le Capitaine Franklin avait completté son voyage par terre et éait parvenu au détroit de Behring entre ce continent et l'Asie cu il a joint la frégatte depêchée par le Gouvernement et dans laquelle il s\u2019est embarqué pour s\u2019en retourner en Angleterre.Ou dit aussi que partie de ceux qui l'ont accompagné cans son trajet, se disposaient à retracer leurs pas et à revenir par le même chemin qu'ils avaient suivi en s\u2019en allant ; de sorte que nous pouvons espèrer de voir dans ce pays quelques uns de ces intrepides voyageurs, Le 23 Février la navigation de la Tamise a été interrompue par la glace.eerste A une Assembiée des Magistrats et autres Citoyens de la Cité de Québec qui s\u2019est tenue Lundi dernier dans la maison de justice et presidée par Robert Christie, Ecuyer, il a eté unanimement resolu de présenter à Sa Majesié une adresse de Condoléance sur le mort 8.A.R.le Duc d'York, en consé= quence une adresse déjà préparée par le Président ayant été lue et adoptée, a été de suite grossoyée et est déposée dans la Maison de Justice pour la Signature d\u2019un chac in, from Exrécutions.\u2014Trois des cinq convaincus du vol de nuit avec effraction commis dans la manse curiale de la Pointe Levi, nomément Wliliam Ross, Benjamin Johnson et Thomas Ellice, Nègre.ont souffert Samedi dernier la peine due à l'atrocité de leur crime.Etant sur la trappe ils ont chacun adressé un dis- coursaux nombreux Spectateurs, dans lesq es Ross et Lllice ont protesté de leur innucence, quoique le premier ait von- fessé qu'il avait eu connaissance du complot quelques jours avaut ta commission du Crfme.L'atrocité des circonstances qui ont accompagné ce crime n\u2019a pas permis a la merci Royale de s'étendre sur les coupables.On ne peut cependant que déplorer que la peine prononcée contre le vol, quelques soient les circonstances aggravantes qui l\u2019accompagnent soit la même que jrour le mentfire prémédité.L'assassinat est un crime contre la divinité même, le meurtrier osant prendre sur lui de détruire sons ouvrage, mais le vol ne blesse que les loix sociales et sa punition devrait se borner à venger la sociéte et à mettre ses membres corrompus bors d'état de recidiver leurs déprédations sur elle, Les deux autres complices Jean Baptiste et Michel Monar- ue du même crime condamnés pareillement à être pendus lardi dernier 24 du courant a la Pointe Lévi, y ont été con= duits en conséquence : mais connu d\u2019après des informations, comme il a paru, mal fondés, on croyait avoir à craindre quelque désordre, à cette occasion dans la paroisse, ils ont été ace compagnés non seulement du Shérif et d\u2019un assez grand nombre de Connétables de la Ville, mais encore par quelques Mas gistrats et un detachement de la garnison auque! s\u2019est joint la troupe de Cavalrie volon:aire commandée par le Capitaine Gugy, qui a traversée le fleuve et par la compagnie de Carabiniers commandée par Capitaine Walker, mais cette dernière, faute de place dans le S/eam-Hoat n\u2019a pu se rendre qu\u2019au lieu de l\u2019embarquement.Arrivés sur les lieux, ou, loin loin du désordre dont la crainte avait fait prendre des précautions extraordinaires, où tr«euva une compagnie de milices de la paroisse rassemblée pour m«intenir le bon ordre, on pru- céda à l'exécution de la sentence en attachant la Corde au Col des deux malbenreux qui alors, s\u2019adressant aux Spectateurs, confessant leur crime et la justice de la peine qu'ils étaient sur Je point de subir.Mais la merci Royale s était fait entendre et il fut annonce qu\u2019il avait plu à S.E.de suse pendre l\u2019exécution de Michel Monarque, du col duquel la hart fut aussitôt ôtée et lui remis sous la garde geolier et des Conés tables.Quant à J.Bite.Monarque il fut lancé, mais le nœud ayant glissé au lieu de rester suspendu il tomba par terre, d'où se relevant il cria pardon! pardon! Celvi seul qui pouvait l\u2019accorder ne se trouvant pas sur les lieux, les officiers de jus tice se virent obligés de passer outre et la Corde ayaut été ratachée à son Col, à ce qu\u2019il paraît, assez mnladroitement, il resta, il est vrai.suspendu après être laucé mais il lutta pour quelques instans contre la mort, tellement qu'on fut obligé de le secouer violemment pour metire fin à ses souffrances.etl Il s\u2019est tenu hier une Assemblée a l\u2019Hôtel de Mailhot dans dans cetle cité, présidée par le Dr.Blanchet, le Dr.Tessier, faisant les fonctions de Secrétaire dont l\u2019objet a été de trouver 1-s moyens les plus propres d'assurer au public la jouissance et la propriété du Musée d\u2019histoire naturelle du à l'industrie infatigable du Sieur Chasseur ( itoyen de cette Ville.L'assemblé, quoïque peu nombreuse, était respectable, et s\u2019est contentée de nommer un Comité pour rédiger le plan d\u2019une association pour les fins proposées, lequel plan lorsque fait sera soumis à une autre Assemblée générale qui sera convoquée À ceteffet.Avant de se séparer les membres présens ont commencé une souscription assez respectable.rm Dans la nuit du 21 au 25 courant il s\u2019est élevé une tempête des plus violentes venant du nord-est, dont la furie ne s\u2019est \u2018un peu appaisé que vers le soir.Nous n\u2019avons encore jamais vu les eaux du bassin, du fleuve et de la Rivière St.Charles agitées au point où elles J'ont été à la haute mer.Cette tempête a exercé ses ravages snr nombre de Goelette, et de bateaux le long des rivages parmi lesquels elle a cansé beaucoup de dégâts.Une Goelette entr\u2019autres chargée de 1800 minots de bled ré- cement arrivée Montréal, s\u2019est brisée contre un des quais re Ia basse-ville, qu'elle a beaucoup: evdommagé.° D'autres quais ont plus ou moins soufferts.Des Madriers et autres pièees de bois ont été portés-sur la Rue St.Paul, quidans plusieursen 8 droits s'est trouvéesul mergde.Un des bêires de l'enceinte de l\u2019Eglise Anglaise à été renversé dans la rue des jardins, eun autre vois.n du premier est étêté.Il est à craindre que le dum- mage Causé par cette tempête tant sur os grèves que dans les Campagnes ne soit très considérable, Nous n\u2019en eonnaissons pas encore les détails.EEE Mon cher Monsieur, .Je crois avoir, dans ma dernidre, victorieusément combattu le principe général sur lequel ce document recrimina- toire parait être fondé ; nanément que la prorogation subite et instantauée de la Législature Provinciale était le fait volontaire du Gouverneur en Chef : supposition trop improbable pour être légèrement adoptée, quand bien même la proposition contraire ne serait pas si mauifeste.Dans celle- ci je vais donc m\u2019attacher à analiser le plus succinctement possible ce morceau, on pent dire, unique dans son espèce, L\u2019exorde de ce munifeste annonce que son objet général est la justification par tes signataires, non de leurs opinions ou de leur conduite individuelles, mais bien du corps dont- ils sont membres, et cela sans le consentement ou lautori sation da ce corps.Une justification semble admettre au moins le soupçon de quelque fondement à l'accusation portée contre celui qui se met sur sa défense.Or qui a dit à ces Messieurs que le corps a laquelle le Sr.Papineau preside était prêt à admettre un tel soupçon.Un corps de la respectabilité d\u2019une branche de la Législature Provinciale doit se croire audessus de tout soupçon, et par conséquent n\u2019avoir pas besoin de se justifier.S\u2019ila fait conscien: irusement ce qu\u2019il a cru devoir faire, il doit se reposer sur la droiture de ses intentions et ne pas provoquer uneinvestigation dont- il ne peut résulter que sa dégradation dans l'esprit du public si la justification n\u2019est pas complette : chose pour ainsi dire, impossible, lorsqu\u2019il n\u2019est question que d'opinions : et tel est ici le cas.llest bien vrai que des faits sunt allégués dans la question actuellement en issue, mais ces [aits sont fondés sur des opinions contestées et jusqu'à ce que les difficultés à l\u2019égard de ces dernières svient terminées, qui osera prouoncer sur les faits eux mêmes.Il est dune évident que cette immiscence présumptueuse d'un petit nombre des membres de I\u2019 Assemblée qui se portent les defenseurs officienx et non autorisés par le corps dont-ils font partie, est absolument dérogatoire à la dignité de ce corps qui doit la ressentir et lesen punir.Leursopinions individuelles lvurappartien- nent et ils sont bien les maitres de les justifier ou de les maintenir devant leurs conmettans lorsqu\u2019il sera question d\u2019une élection ; mais l\u2019opinion du corps n\u2019appartient qu\u2019à lui seul et lui seul doit être le juge si sa conduite a besoin de justification.Mais le cas devient infiniment plus grave et prend une tournure bien plus offensante et impardonnable, quand, an lieu d'une justification telle qu\u2019annoncée, on trouve en effet un manifeste récriminatoire, dans lequel un petit nombre d'individus, ayant l\u2019orateur à leur tête, se portent au nom du corps dont-ils font partie, (car il ne faut pas perdre cette circonstance de vue) se porteut, dis-je, accusateurs du Chet de l'Exécutif pour avoir fait usage d\u2019une prérogative qu\u2019il tient de la constitution même, et amenent ainsi, sans antcune mission à cet effet, deux corps constitués devant le tribunal du public : démarche aussi indécente que imprudente et dangérense.Et devant quel tribunal encore! Ecoutons la sage Minerve et le jugement qu'elle en porte.Ils ne re- cnseront pas certainement son témoignage.Voici ce que l\u2019éditeur en dit dans son No.du 26 Mars, -+* Chez un peuple où la masse dus c.toyenss\u2019occupe d\u2019affaires publiques, où chacun peut par soi même connaitre les ressorts qui meuvent la machine politique, et leur donner stiemment et immédiatement l\u2019impuilsion convenable, il n\u2019est pas besoin d\u2019autres moyens pour faire triompher la vérité que de l\u2019exposer aux yeux du public sans aucnne parure ; toutes les intrigues, tous les artifices au moyen desquels on voudrait y substituer l\u2019erreur, seraient chez un tel penple appréciés à leur juste valeur et couvriraient leurs auteurs quels qu'ils fussent, de la honte due à leurs plans.\u201d Vérité incontestable, mais celle qui suit immédiatement après ne l\u2019est pas moins.« Malheureusement,\u201d nous dit-il, \u2018\u201c le Canada n\u2019est pas ce pays la.\u201d Un peu plus bas, toujours parlant du Canada, il nous dit.¢ Mais si fe bon sens du pays n\u2019a pu être perverti de manière à lui faire trahirses intérêts lorsqu'il est a portée de les connaître\u201d (J'avoue que je ne comprens pas bien cette es- péce de reticence) ** il n\u201d\u2019en est pas moins vrai, &c.que la population de la Province, à parler généralement, n\u2019est pas encore en état de choisir au premier coup d\u2019œll entre la Justice et le mensonge, &c.\u201d Et c\u2019est à cette population si complêtement ignorante que l\u2019on en appelle pour juger des questions de cette nature! Cette circonstance seule doit manifester la mauvaise foi qui a dicté cet appel.Un autre de leurs plus fermes adhérenset dont le prononcé doit être de poids parmi eux nous a dit laconiquement que cette population \u2018\u201c élait devenue incrédu'e\u201d A cela je dis tant mieux.Je serais bien faché d'en être moi-même aveuglement cru Tout ce que je demande c\u2019est que mes compatriotes suspendent leur jugement jusqu\u2019à ce que la question en litige soit déterminée par la seule autorité qui a le droit dele faire, et c\u2019est alors qu\u2019en rélisant ou se rappellant ce qui aura été dit et écrit de part et d\u2019autre, ils seront en état de décider en qui ils doivent mettre leur confiance à lavenir et de quel côté se trouve la bonne foi, la raison, la pureté des principes constitutionels et les vues droites et désintéressés.Mais procédons.Après cet exorde, le doctunent nous dit : \u2018\u201c S.E.déclare à la Province entière que les difficultés existantes sur un seul point ont occasionné le rejet de toutes les autres mesures que le Guuvernement de S.M.a soumises à notre considération.\u201d\u201d A cela je répondrai dabord que pour que cet allégué put servir, en tant que de besoin, à lu justification de l\u2019assemblée, il faudrait quil fut appuyé de preuves comme quoi elle avuit, durant les trente jours et plus qu\u2019elle avait siégé, pris en considération les mesures qui lui avaient été soûmases par le Gouvernement deS.M.Mais loin de là par l\u2019énumératien que nous donne la Minerve de travaux nombreux, dont-elle s\u2019était occupée dans cet espace de tems nous ne trouvons qu\u2019une seule de ces mésures, nomément celle de l\u2019étahlissement de Bureaux d'enrégistrement, souvent et fortement recommandé par S.E.et, remarquez bien cela, lecteurs ! elle s\u2019en esl occupée\u2014POoUR le REJET- TER ! 1\u2014Mais je veux bien passer sur cette vetille et en venir au point majeur qui en effet, à causé tout le mal.Voyons en l\u2019analisant si nous y découvrirons rien qui puisse tendre à la justification de l\u2019Assemblée.Depuis plusieurs années les Chefs de cette Province ont demandé à la Chambre au nom du Roi de pourvoir d\u2019une manière constitutionelle aux dépenses du Gouvernement Civil.Or il est à croire que le Parlement Britanuique doit comprendre ce que c\u2019est que cette manière constitutionelle et il >a sans doute adoptée.En conséquence à l\u2019avenement d\u2019un aépsreau Roi à la Couronne, le Parioment, Britannique lui THE QUEBEC GAZETTE.alloue une somme fixe pour défrayer les dépenses de sa liste eivile, et pour le maintien de la diguité de sa Couronne, et cela pour tout le cours de savie.Nos dignes représentans du Bas-Canada, quien savent bien plus long que tous les Lords et toutes les Communes d'Angleterre, disent, nun ce n'est pas la maniére constitutionelle.Nous vouluns de notre pleine puissance et de notre science certaine que vous veniez humblement ot chapeau bas à notre barre solliciter votre bienveillance en faveur de ce tas d'esclaves salariés, autrement dits Officiers publics.Nous voulons les tailler, rogner, les chasser inême quand ils osent nous déplaire.Mais, Messrs.leur dit-on, cette prétention de votre part est-elle dans l'esprit et dans la lettre de cette constitution sous l\u2019empire de laquelle nous vivons ?\u2014 De quoi venez vous nous parler à de votre Constitution Britannique ?Est-ce que nous n\u2019avens pas la \u2018notre propre ?C\u2019est dans l\u2019esprit de celle-ci, et vous savez que la lettre tue et que c\u2019est l\u2019esprit qui vivifie, que nous la découvrons cette prétention.N'est-elle pas ©\u201c mudélée sur celle de l\u2019Angleterre\u201d et ne nous fait-elle pas participer à la t ute puissance que le savant Blackstone attribne au Parlement [inpérial?Mais, Messrs.pourrait-on leur répondre, vous Êtes en démence.lime semble entendre la lune se mettre à l\u2019égal du soleil parce que celui-ci veut bien lui permettre de réfléchir ses rayons tandis qu\u2019il repose dans les bras de Thetis.Ouvrez donc la ehartre qui vous constitue et montrez y moi une seule trace de cette trinité indivisible dans laquelle seule réside la toute puissance l\u2019arlementaire et qui est la clef de la constitution que voussemblez rejetter etméconnaitre, Mais ressouvenez vous que vous êtes sous cette toute puissance, sous cet astre lumineux qui à bien voulu vous permettre de rétléchir ses rayons dans notre hémisphère, et qui peut d\u2019un seul acte d: sa volonté vous replonger dans l\u2019obseurité dont il vous a tirés.Mais l\u2019Assemblée ne s\u2019en est pas tenue à refuser de souscrire à la manière reconnue parle Parlement Britannique comme la seule constilutionelle et qu'il à constamment suivie depuis la glorieuse révolution de 1688 ; elle a osé produire un Bill par items discutés publiquement et à baute voix, Mr.Papineau comme souverain proclamant les heureux parti- cipans à ses faveurs et son chancellier de l'échiquier le Sr.A.Cuvillier assignant à chacun sa part du gâteau.Ce bill, comme de raison, « été rejetté avec indignation.Depuis un de:ni siecle je suis avec attention les opérations de ce Corps auguste qui n'a jamais eu, qui n\u2019a pas et qui n'aura jamais son égul dans le monde, le Parlement Britannique et je délie tous les l\u2019apineaux et les Cuvillier de la terre de me montrer un seul exemple d'un pareil procédé de la | Chambre des Communes d\u2019Angleterre.Llle s\u2019est bien permise quelque fvis,et avec droit, de discuter quelques items de la liste civile accordée, qu\u2019elle considérait comme sinecures et comme telles inutiles, mais à quelles occasions se l\u2019est-elle permise ?Lorsque ies Ministres au nom de Sa Ma- Jesté, fuisaient application à la Chambre pour quelque subside additionel à cette liste civile ; et comment s'y prenait- elle adurs ?Faisait-elle passer la plume de sa pleine autorité sur les offices ou emplois de deniers auxquels elle objectait ?non : après mûres discussions dans lesqueiles Sa Majesté prenait part par ses Ministres et avec sa sanction les dits offices ou emplois étaient rayés du tableau.Mais la vanité républicaine dédaigne de telles marques d'égards pour le chef d'un gouvernement monarchique héréditaire.Elle ne craint pas d\u2019insulter 1a Majesté Royale, soit directement parun refus à sa propre requisition, soit dans la personne de son représentant.Mais ce n\u2019est pas encore tout.L\u2019assemblée voyant que sa prétention d items n\u2019était pas soutenable ni en raison ni en loi,l'a en quelque façon abandonnée pour adopter un nouveau moyen de chicane au moins aussi absurde que les deux autres.Elle a voulu s\u2019emparer dz appropriation d'une partie du revenu provincial déja assignée, par un statut, non de la Législature Provinciale, mais du Parlement Britannique, à Sa Majesté, pour subvenir à uue partie des dépenses de l\u2019administration de cette colonie.Statut antérieur à l\u2019existence de notre Législature et qui ne peut Être abrogé que par la même autorité dont il emane.Mais je m'apperçois que j'ai déjà rempli la portion de vos colonnes que vous avez l\u2019indulgence de m\u2019accorder : avec votre permission je cuntinueraià vous faire parvenir mes remarques sur un objet si .nportant.Appel a été fait au peuple Canadien, et comme tel j'ai droit d étre entendu, J\u2019exprimerai mes sentimens avec cette franchise et cette énergie que le sujet requiert.Heureuxsi je puis réussir à ramener dans le Bercail constitutionnel quelques unes des brebis qui, dans l\u2019obscurité, auraient pu s\u2019en être écartées.Je suis, mon chér monsieur, votre, &c.C.D\u2019E, MARIE, Mardi dernier 3 V Hopital Général, prés de cette ville, par le Révd, M.Thomas
