The honorary member complained that certain filthy publications had accused him of cowardice on account of this affair; and in vile and popular poetry he also understood that like charges were made,and he was sorry to add, by reverend gcribblers; but he hoped such \u201cmiscreants\u201d would be disappointed in their objects, and get no preferment from this Gov- erament-(hear.)\u2014Asto Mr.Gourlay, if the honourable member was convinced of his sanity, why did he not become surety -(a laugh.Ar.i GURNEY thought Mr, Gourlay entitled (o the consideration of the House.Mr, PERCEVAL thought the honoarable member for Mon- trase would be acting more in mercy to Mr.Gourlay, if he re- \u2018ained from preseniing similar petitions., Mr.HUME said, that the facts of the petitioner's case, had Bern entirely lost sight of.They were not to look at what had been his state three years ago, but at the state in which he now was.He would only add, that he would give hissecurity for the petitioner, i ve but that the petiiioner had refused to accept it, until it was decided why he was detained in confinement.Mr.BROUGHAM said, that he wished it to be distiuctly understood, that it was his wish that the petitioner should beset al liberty.Tae petition was then ordered fo be printed.The Lords amendmeats tu the warehoused corn bill, and to the coru averages\u2019 bill, were agreed (0.-Adjouraned at half-past eleven o'clock till Mouday.it will be seen from our Parliamentary report that the bonded corn-bill, and also the average corn bili, have passed the House of Lords.The latter, in its last reading, had the good fortune to have its efficacy restored to ite The averages are to be taken every six wek-.CEE Posr-Orrice,.Extracts from circulars senthy Francis Free- ling.Esqr.to the Post-mastera 10 Great Britain and Ireland, respecting the new Post office acts, .« Newspapers to the colonies and possessions beyond sea.printed newspapers and other printed publications, liable to the stamp dulics, may be sent io any of his Majesty\u2019s colonies or possessions beyoud seas by the packet-boats, upon the pay- meat of one penny half-peuny for every such paper; such | payment to be made at the time che paper is put into the pust office, provided the same be seal iu coversopen at the sides, and be put into ihe post office in any town of Great Britain or lIre- land, on any day withinseven days of which the same shall be ublished, such date tu be ascertained by the date of the paper, Fou will carefully examine the newspapers brought to your office to be so forwarded, and will charge those which are not put into the post within seven days after with the full rate of postage of a single letter to the place to which such newspaper may be addressed.If any papers intended to de sent from Great Britain and Ireland, which are liable to the stamp duties, are not duly stamped, such papers are to be stopped and sent to me, for the purpose of being transmitted 10 the Commissioners of Stamps.Newspapers printed in the British ! colonies and brought to Great Britain and Ireland, by packets or by private ships, in covers open at the sides, will be char- l ged with a postage of three-pence upon each paper.And if any other paper or thing whatsveser be enclosed or concealed | in such printed papers, or there shall be any other writing than [ the sup erscriptions upon such papers or their covers, you will charge the sume with ireble the postage of a letter.Letters, with Merchants\u2019 Accounts, Bills of Exchange, Invoices, Bills of Lading, and Proceedings at Law, written on the same piece of paper with a letter, are vo longer liable lo separate rates of postage, but are to be charged as single only.À single piece of paper is only chargeavle with single postage, whatever may be written or printed upon it.\u201d\u201d ll anette D A very judicious system of training boys for the navy, has been introducad into Devonport.These lads, who are not to exceed thirteen years of age, when entered, aie to be divided into classes, under experienced men, by whom they will be | taught the rudiments of (he service,and exercised in gymnas- i tics, The regulations provide for their present comfort, their moral instruction, and future provision, After eight months trial they are to be sent into active employment, or if unft for ser- ! vice, they will be returned to their homes.It is evident that | under judicions management.this system is calculated to advance the interests and character of the British navy, and, if carried to any great extent, i would, in a great measure super- cede the necessity of impressment, Sir Walter Scott\u2019s Life of Napoleon, complete in nine volumes, is positively promised to the public on the 30th June.Itis affirmed that the Ctronicles.of the Cannongale will appear early in October, the author having made that work a relaxation irom the fatigue of history!

and a decision bus in consequence, been made, permitting that trade, This is probably intended to counteract that inconvenience which might en-ue from the late pruclamation of the President of the United States, pro- bibitiog the interceurse ot British colonial vessels with American ports, should any sudden ecarcity arise, to which contingency some of the West ludia Islands, from husricanes and other causes, are particularly liable.The Canada Merchants will be permitted to take the flour out of bond for home consumption or exportation to other places, on paying a duty of 5.tbe barrels\u2014 Times, June 23.London, June 26, 1827 -The Duke of Wellington last night read some further correspondence with Mr.Hu kisson, on the subject of his unfortunate amendment, These supplementary letiers afford certainly an additional proof of the Duke\u2019s good faith, but they prove also to demonstration that his Grace's intellect is as impregnable as bis honour, Mr.Huskisson \u2018s clear and forcible reasoning seems to have made as much impression on his (military correspondent as a cannon ball would où à mud bank.The weakness of (he Minister in the Upper House, compels him to trim and tack in all airections, when pressed by the sullen mass of pie-bald :onjority on every puiat relating to the price vf coru.- Times.ers MARKETS.LONDON CORN EXCIIANGE.Jung 23th, 1327.The arrivals of Grain during the preceding week were moderate, and this morning there is again a short supply for this season of the yedr.Ihe uncertainty about the new average bill, aud the expectation of the bouded Corn Bill passing, tend to perplex our buyers, so that they scarcely know how to govern their tranactions.The Wheat trade has in consequence, been heavy this morning, ant the prices are declined 2s to 3s per quarter (rom the terms quoted on this days sennight.Barley, Beans, and Peas muy each be reported 3s per quarterluwer, and the prices almost ominal.\u2014There lias been a -lack trade for Oats since last Monday, and except for stout heavy parcels, the trade may be stated 1s quarter cheaper.No alteration iu the Flour trade.\u2018 307 Average Prices of Grain, for the week ending June 15, 1527.GENERAL AVERAGE.\u2014Whedt, 53s 2d;

and the success of the atttempt will depend on giving her a proper direction through the rapids above the Falls.The points of departure io insure this resuit, will be ascertained by previous experiments and it is confidently expected, that by these means her launch over the tremendous Cataract, will be peatized.An immense concourse of spectators, will, no doubt, be brought together to witness so novel and imposing a spectacle.\u2014U.E.Loyalist.ee On Saturday, the 4th of August, a numerous meeting of the Township of Melbourne, took place, in obedience to the revived Militin Ordinance.They were, commanded by Ensign Lankster, the only Militia Officer, at present in the Towuship 5 they presented afing appearance of excellent materiel for military re- sovce.A great part being composed of active young men, who no doubt would be willing at any time of danger to combat the foes of their King and country.We are glad to perceive that the inhabitants of the Townships, shew such alacrity in obeying the aforesaid ordnance, notwithstanding the illegal cavils of many against it.The Townships Shipton and Melbourne, being attached to the Sth Battalion of the Township Militia furnish the goodly number of three hundred and upwards, of active men, able tobear arms according to law ; which, together with the other frontier Townships, are able to form a large and respectable force on this froutier of Lower Canada.| A deputation from the above corps requested I À.Evans, A1 Esq.of Shipton, to meet them with an Address to His Excel lency the Governor in Chief, ou the present situation of the Province, and of the Townships in particular;

which we shall proceed to try by the tests of truth and justice.After quoting our paragraph, he proceeds in his ¢\u201c quiet\u201d - J peculiar way, as follows : \u2014 \u201cIt seems then that his Mujesty\u2019s Government has nut sanctioned the system of punishing the country because its representatives would not do as they were bid, and partic ularly, give their consent to the abandonment of the con.~ ws Le FY» ics tre nd He re.be tle rs, ng hut th lon ch ed utr be 4 the 30 ine Cas Cw ae al of af s LO le, te | ner na 1% ord the On ?the friv= pes the Rita pei Ling tot P [0s the will ten pion are said ing the Pc bes 16th Qtli, in- art- cur Five the hich ion, vere eed, 1 ac- OWN ould rned ! at the mch hall st be is to ind a sual d di- ip of \u2018 cted, pd an ncial ' more ving offer, rably .ts of | niet\u2019 a net se its hrtice cons 1827.GAZETTE DE QUEBEC.5 A03 EEE troul over the whole of the expenses of the Civil Government, as maintained by the act of Supply sanctioned by the Legislative Council and the Executive in 16825,\u201d Now, the data for thisingenious sentence are simply these : The Legislative Council in the session of 1820, not having at that period thought proper to take the stand which they bave since so honorably maintained in opposition to the unconstitutional pretensions of the Ilouse of Assembly, agreed with that House in certain Bills for local appropropria- ons.These, at the close of the session, came before the Executive Branch, in due course, fot its assent.We need not now stop to enquire, for it is not necessary to our purpose, whether it would, or would not, have been better that he Legislative Council should have stood between the Ex- ECUTIVE and these Bills, viewing the conduct pursued by the Lower House as to the Supply that year.It is enough hat the Legislative Council coincided in these Bills, which, u the exercise of its discretion, were reserved by the Ex- ECUTIVE for the Royal consideration, in common with anther Bill, the Dissonter's Marriage Bill, we believe, which as been disapproved by His Masesty.The Bills so reserv- pd were forwarded in the usual manner to the Colonial Of- ce, were laid before the Krw& by the MINISTER ; and re- cived the Rovaw assent, simply as having passed both Houses pf the Provincial Legislature, without any reference to the conduct of the House of Assembly in the matter of Supply, which was not then coram judice, or before Hrs MAsEsTY.From the above duta we arrive at two clear facts, one of vhich deserves more particular attention, because we are pware that attempts are made to show from some recent ircumstances, evidently misunderstood here, relative to he Sister Province, coupled with the Assent given to these ills, that the present Ministry are about to adopt a new, end as it is unnecessarily termed, a moze literal course of conduc (when has GREAT BrITAIN used illiberality ?) towards tiese Provinces :\u2014namely, that these Bills, having Micen forwarded, in duc course, as reserved Bills, to Earl ATHURST, were by him recommended to His Majesty's approval 3 aud, therefore, to the Old Ministry, if it is a watter of any consequence, ¢\u201c the country ought to be I\u2018 thankiul,\u201d\u201d and not to the present, from which such lissfulanticipations are so confidently entertained.Second- y: Wherever Mr.NErtson got the phrase, \u201c punisking he country,\u201d for it is none of ours, itis quite clear that ere the EXECUTIVE capable of any such sentiment, the ourse pursued has no such tendency.Had there been ny intention of this kind, surely, it wasin the power of he Expcumive to have stifled these Bills at once, by | ¢fusing the Rovar assent in the firstinstance.Many per- ons are of opinion that the proceedings of the House of ssembly would have justified the latter course; which, lowever, we rejoice wus not adopted, in preference to hat mild and constitutional one.which the Executive ctually followed.In the short sentence we have quoted above, from the æ (Gazette, Mr.NEszsoN, in his usual manner, first creates n unjust impression ; and then argues upon it throughout, s if founded in fact.We deny his myjor\u2014we maintain that ho such system of punishing the country, as he calls it, ever rxisted or was thought of.We need not, then, follow kim hrough his subsequent misrepresentations.The matter iselfis in a nutshell, por does it merit the importance we emto attach toit.The Executive in this affair will e found sans tuche et sans reproche.No one will pretend to say, that these Bills, though vithout doubt serviceable, were of any paramount impor- ance to the welfare of the Province.They were not for mstance to be put in competition with certain other Bills, which the Country has long been crying out for, but which he House of Assembly cannot be induced to pass.And .cre we may remark that it is in vain for the great en of the Assembly, and more so for the Editoriay Drzan of that House, to trumpet forth, continually, their ills for the good of the Country, sent up to the Legislative \u2019ouneil and there lost.Let the facts be examined, the lauses, the objeets, the tendency enquired into: then we ball know æhy those Bills were rejected, and thank the ionorable body, which now, in our opinion, solely represents the British population, for its timely interposition, One remark more: Mr.NEILsoN asserts, \u2018 had these \u2018 Bills been sanctioned in the spring of 1826, we should \u201c have been saved the famous CHARGE against the late ¢ Assembly, of neglecting to provide for the comfort of prisoners in the Quebec Gaol, &c.\u201d\u201d To prove the fallacy ind wanton misrepresentation of this passage, it is only hecessary to call vpon Mr.NEILsoN to show how the reservation of these Bills in the spring of 1826, applies to the onduct of the Assembly in 1827, which ultimately brought bn the dissolution # The Governor IN CHIEF, however, in is Speech at the Prorogation last spring, did not charge hs House with ¢ neglecting to provide for the prisoners in ¢ the Gaol, &c.,\u2019 His EXCELLENCY spoke only of the fects of their proceedings ; and these are the words of the Speech :\u2014 \u201c The results of your proceedings in this session have heen he refusal of the supplies necessary for the ordinary ex- henses of Government, the loss of the Militia Bill, the Jail- re of all provisions for the maintenance of prisoners in your ails and Houses of correction, &c.\u201d His Excellency, therefore, spoke of provision for the main- enance and support of prisoners, insane persons, and found- ings ; whereas the bill reserved, and which has now re- - ceived RoYAL assent, was merely an appropriation for the repairs of the Quebec jail.What, then, we again ask Mr.NeiLsoN, had the reservation of the latter bill, in 1826, to do with the results of the procecdings of the Assembly, in 1827 ?But, Quo tencam vultus mutantem Protea nodo ?Misrepresentation is his trade : in this instance, perhaps \u201cit lay in his way, and he found it.\u201d \u2014\u2014 We cannot but admire the light and easy manner in which the Editor of the Ex-Gasetts gets over difficulties which would be a stambling block to a person of a less airy and buoyant nature.Really ! he would \u201c be very glad to live on terms\u201d with us ! and, * by the bye, we are wrong in taking what is \u2018 said of our paper, to ourselves personally.\u201d Certes, Mr Editor, your politeness sits most gracefully upon you, after the plebeian terms, for which we made our acknowledgments last week.But why should we dally with this * Forcible Feeble; who offers a gross insult, and when he sees demonstrations of resentment, begs permission to shake hands and make it up, We feel nothing in common with him, let him keep his course\u2014our lines will never touch.The Upper CANADA papers do not throw any light upon the nature of the Bill, lately introduced into the Housk of Commons by Mr.WiLMor Hortow, in lien of the Naturalization Bill sent home from the Colonial Legislature.The party in opposition to Government, here, as well as in UrPen CANADA, feel excessive joy at they know not what.Whenever certain information is received respecting Mr.W.Horton's Bill, we think it will be found tobe an enlargement of, and an improvement in the principle and details of the other Bill, which originated in instructions from the Colonial Office.We mean to say, that it wilt be found that the alteration will uot be in the spirit of the Bill, except indeed that the liberality of its enactments will render it more comprehensive, and therefure more acceptable.The petitions which went home, were, we believe, against the Bill, or any other Bill, altogether ; whereas, Mr, HorTon\u2019s Bill will combine the enactments of the old measure, with the exiension, he thinks it neccessary to give its provisions.It has most probably been thought better that it should originate in the IMPERIAL Parliament, as it will confer privileges which none but the imPZRIAL Parliament can hestow ; being designed, most likely, to admit naturalized subjects in UrPER CANADA, to all the immunities which other BRITISH subjects, similarly circumstanced, can enjoy.A Colonial Act, could, obviously, anly confer these privileges in its own Province.The opposers of the Bill in toto, will, therefore, be disappointed, while good subjects will be doubly gratified.merase] The SurvEvor GENERALisnow absent on a tour through the Province, in pursuance of instructions from the GovEr- NOR IN CurEr, for the purposes of collecting materials to fill up certain statistical and Topographical returnsrequired at the Colonial Office for the information of Hts MAsEsTY\u2019s Ministers, as also of acquiring a knowledge of tho general state of the new settlements in the Towuships, in furtherance of the objects of his Tour in 1824.The Surveyor GENERAL Will traverse, in the first instance, the old settlements of the Country, and will afterwards visit those sec- tfons of it more recently settled by the Emigrant population.PS The bigh spiriied answer of the ALBION, to the uNn-AME- RICAN malignity of the New York American, should have been reprinted in this paper, only that most of our readers being alsoreaders of the AzB1oN, the repetition is unnecessary to thark our heartfelt satisfaction at the triumph of truth and highfeeling, over selfishness and national jealousy.A Dy the death of Mr.BELANGER, a vacancy occurs in the Representation of the Lower-Towu.eect We have Havrrax papers to the 15th inst., and have been favored with a file of NEwFoUNDLAND Journals to the 26th ulto.The HaLIrAx papers contain nothing new, and those of NEWFoUNDLAND seem to be most gratefully occupied by the details of the visit of the Lord Bisnor of Nova ScoTiA to St.Joun\u2019s.We are happy to perceive by a puragraph in them, that the Protestant Bishop was entertained at dinner on his arrival, by Dr, ScaLLan the Roman Catholic Bishop of NEwrouND LAND.A new paper called the : NEwroUNDLANDER has started at St.Jonn\u2019's.\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 The Druxmonn Island detachment of the 40th Regt.arrived here yesterday.The remaining division of that Regiment embarked this day for Cork in the Arab Transport, and will proceed to sea on Saturday.eet OR ereene Capt.Basi.Havr, the distinguished and scientific traveller, has been here a few days, and will leave QuEskc early next week.He has visited the fulls in the neighbourhood, and the scenery round St.ANNE'S.Capt.FRANELIN went from SorEL to Laxe CHAMPLAIN, în order to reach New York in time for the 1st September packet.\u2014\u2014 \u2014\u2014\u2014 We understand that the accounts of the great sickness on the Welland Canal, if not wholly untrue, are shamefully exaggerated.Setar We shall publish next week Major de Bellefeuille\u2019s letter on the subject of the Election for the County of York.When persons like Mr.StmPsoN, and this gentleman, put their names to their declarations, tbey will be believed, in spite of the ipse dixit of the Ex-Gazette.We shall also endeavour as soon us possible to make some extracts from DELTa\u2019s letter.me Pov'ce.~On the 20th instant, John Drummond was cone victed in the penalty of £20, for assisting D.McKennon of the 79th Regt to desert from this Garrison ;

buta more distinct view of the arrauge- ment adopted in conveying this information will be gained by inspecting the paper itself, which may be seen at the Office of Messrs.CARY & Co.Free Mason's all, Prospectus of a Commercial Paper, to Le entitled \u2018 the Com parative Price Current, und Luropean and American Come mercial Reporter.\u201d 1n reflecting on the extensive commercial relations already subsisting between the different portions of the American Continent, and with the maritime countries of Europe ; and considering the vast increase of trade that may be expected to result from the present favourable political condition of them ali, 1he Editors of (he Comparative Price-Current have devise ed the work the Prospectus of which is here submitted to pub § lic notice.1t will be conceded that national, nct less than individual prosperity is essentially dependent on authentic information, in regard to whatever may affect the commercial interests of either ; and, therefore, the fulfilment of the proposed design cannot fail to be of general advantage.Under such circume stances, we present ourselves for the attention and patronage of the mercantile community.It will be our aim to offer a publication of utility to the several countries whose ports shall be noticed, by furnishing to each such intelligence from every other as may be important to its mercantile arrangements ; and we shall, at the same time, consult the interests of individuals iv all, by affording fur their use, means of acquiring commercial information that cannot, we thiuk, be found in any other single publication.The various existing prints are not undervalued by this declaration.They have their pariicular obe jects, with the successfull attainment of which we feel no dis position to interfere.We also have ours; and, so far as these may be in any degree coincident, the advantages (hex may possess, from greater frequency of publication, we shail compensate by a more comprebensive plas, and the conden eation of many scattered facts, not otherwise accessible.If the former have preference with one class of readers, we Jook for it with another ; and shall exert ourselves to deserve and obe tain it, The detail of our plan is briefly this.The Comparative Price-Current, and Commercial Reporter will constantly furnish a statement of the wholesate prices of the principal articles of trade.in about fifty different markets, in Europe aud America ;

mais la force de la position occupée par les Tures les réduisit à une attaque sur un corps peu nombreux de ces derniers qui occupaient,comme avant poste, le cloitre de Spiridon.Après s\u2019y être défendus pendant plusieurs jours avec le plus grand courage contre leurs nombreux assaillans, ceux-ci se trouvérent enfin forcés de capituler.Mais que peut une capitulation parmi des peuples barbares ?A peiue les prisonniers Turcs étaient-ils en route pour se rendre sur le burd de la mer et s\u2019y embarquer, qu'ils furent pour la plupart massacrés; et ils l\u2019auraient été tous sans le Général en Chef Church, qui avec bien de la peine et au danger même de sa propre vie parvint à en sauver quelques uns, Ce Général, aussi bien que d\u2019autres Officiers supérieurs Européens auxiliaires, indignés de cette atrocité, voulaient les abandonner et l\u2019auraient fait si on ne leur avait promis de punir les coupables dont quelques ens furent sur le champ arrêtés.Les Turcs ont été si furieux en apprenant un tel acte de trahison que le Seraskier a dans l\u2019instant fait trancher la tête à tous les Grecs qui étaient en son pouvoir.Cette scène horrible s\u2019est passée le 25 d'Avril dernier.Mais si l'on en croit les nouvelles ulterieures il parait que les Grecs en ont été sévèrement punis, par une défaite sanglante qu\u2019ils ont es-uyée quelques jours après.On parle toujours cependant, de l'intervention \u2018des grandes puissances de l\u2019Europe pour tâche; Je mettre fin à une lute couduite d'une manière si répu- gnaute à l\u2019état de civilisation auquel est parvenu le reste de l\u2019Europe.Les affaires de la Peninsule semblent être stationaires; on donne toutes fois des espérances d'un traité prochain entre l\u2019Espagne et le Portugal.Lors des dernières nouvelles de France les chambres de la Législature étaient sur le point de terminer leurs séances et d\u2019être prorogées ; le Budget, (mot qui parait être actuellement admis dans la langue française,) venait d\u2019être passé et consenti, après d'assez longues discussions.pre Le Parlement Impérial a ei prorogé par Commissaires Royaux le 2 de Juillet.Le Lord Grand Chancelier à cette occasion a délivré la harangue dont nous donnons ici la raduction.¢¢ Milords et Messieurs\u2014Nous avons ordre de Sa Majes té de vous exprimer la satisfaction qu\u2019éprouve Sa Majesté, de oir que l\u2019état des affaires publiques lui permette de vous décharger de la nécessité ultérieure de votre présence en Parlement.\u2018\u201c Sa Majesté nous ordonne de vous informer, qu\u2019elle ontinue à recevoir de toutesles puissances du dehors, les assurances du désir le plus sincère de cultiver des relations pmicales avec Sa Majesté, et que les efforts de Sa Majesté, aussi bien que les Communications de Sa Majesté avec ses alliés sont incessamment dirigés vers les moyens de mettre n aux hostilités et de maintenir une paix générale.\u201d
