living one ever brought to this country, seems to enjoy its location in Windsor-park.The animal, in its native country, browses upon the tops of trees, but it can without inconvenience change its regimen for any other vegetable diet.The one now in Windsor is fed principally on mixed grains, ground wheat, barley, and beans, and its drink is milk night andjmorning.This change in its natural habits originates in the manner in which it has been brought up.Having fallen into the hands of some Arabs, who had no other food to offer it but the grain on which they fed their camels, and the milk which they procured from the females, it accustomed itself to it, and has not now a wish for any other.It, however eats willingly fruit and the tops of branches, especially of the genus mimosa.\u2018This animal is ahout two years and a half old, and isa present from Mahomed Ali, Pacha of Egypt, who obtained it as a present from the Governor of Sennaar.2d August, 1527.nt An account bas been printed, by order of the House of Coma mons, of the quantities of articles on which duties of excise in Great Britain Were paid in the years 1790 and 1226.The first article in the list isthe amount of sales of estates (by auction) charged with duties in the two vears;in 1790, it was £1,561,205.4s, 7d.5 in 1826, it was .£3,218,265, 14s.Of furniture, in the first year, £1,046,501.; in the last, £2,898,901 17s.8d.The quantity of strong beer which has paid duty has increased from 4,568,594 to 6,802,232 barrels.Table beer has increased, three fold ; but, on the other Land, small beer, at least beer which is small in the eyes of the excise, has become extinct.1fwe compare the table and small beer of 1790 with the table beer of 1826 there is a decrease from 1,950,000 to 1,850,000 barrels.Malt has increased from 24,721,784 to 30,062,352 bushels.Home pirits from 4,423,876 to 7,397,549 gallons.Printed calicoes By .bh a pe je y= CS e~t COQ EEN \\ 1827.GAZETTE DE QUEBEC.17 pr, from

3,438,079 to 6,837,408 gallons ; malt, which as decreased almost to a ha:f, from 4.697,200 to 2,400,066 Irish bushels.The amount of sales of estates charged with duties in Ireland in 1826, was only

accomplished by the Leeds (in both directions) in about 70 hours.Considering the amouat of trade between the eastern parts of Scotland and the Baltic, we cannot belp thinking that there isa good field for steam-navi- gation in this quarter.À vessel, fur iustance, silling out from Leith, and touching at Broughty Ferry, Montrose, and Aber.een, might accommodate the merchants in all the chief seats of the Baltic trade.From Aberdeen to Gottenburg is a clear run of 500 miles, or-two day\u2019s sailing.A voyage of 150 miles would then bring her to Copenhagen, from whence the third stage to Dantzic would be 200 miles ; the fourth to Riga, 300 m les, touching at Pilau and Memel ; the fifth to Peters- burg, 400 miles.She might return by Abo and Stockholm.The entire voyage out might.ccupy a fortnight, and the return rather a shorter period, ludependently of the trade in small articles, which among so many ports should amount to something, the passengers al.ne, we should imagine, would almost create employment fer two boats starting the first and 15th of every mouth.We throw out the suggestion for the Scotish traders.\u2014Scotsman.Steam Mail-packet to India.\u2014It is stated in a Madras paper, that Mr.Thomas Waghorn, of the Bengal Pilot Establisbment, had proceeded to England in the ship Reaper, in the expectation of establishing between Falmouth aud India a steam mail packet.The vessel is to be built after the model of the Leith smacks, of 200 or 220 tons, with two 25 horse power engines, her mast is to be constructed so as to lower down on the deck in case of head winds, and the funnelis also to be fowered at pleasure, Every thing is tobe sacrificed to expedition.She will carry no passengers or live stock.\u2018The captain, and a crew of nineteen to mess together, and potted meats to be laid in.By these means the utmost rvom possible for the stowage of coals is to be afforded and itis expected the vessel will carry 50 day's consumption.The passage is to be wade in 70 days.CALEDONIAN CANAL\u2014In the eventof a war wih the U.States, or the Northern Powers, the benefit of the Caledo- nian Canal must be every great indeed.It will then offer not only a speedy, safe and convenient passage, Lut also a complete security from the encmy\u2019s cruisers, overa very cxteu- sive range of coast, adapted aboveall others to the purpose cf naval predatory warfare.\u2014lu insurance aloue, this canal will then save the country annually double the interest of the money it cost.The first year this navigation was opeued, although the depth of water was but small, the resort of shipping was very considerable, indeed greater then could bave been expected under all the circumstances, and there was every pros- pectofits increase; but unfortunately,and asiwetboughtat the time unwisely, the dues were doubled the year following, the cffect of which bas Leen to diminish the shipping on it by onc half.We trust that more need vot be said ou the subject; a change is loudly called for, and we cannot doubt that it will speedily take place.\u2018The American navy will soon be our most formidable rival, and we must bestow more attention on our western coast than has hitherto been necessary.We rejoice to observe that light Louses are now building on the very remark- ble group of rocks called Skervore, of the Islaud off Tyree.That extensive and dangerous frange is perbaps oue of the most de.- tructive shoals any where to be found, and it lies in the direct track of our commerce between the north of Europe aud Ireland, as well as the west of Scotland aud of Eugiand.The utmost care aud consideration is required in placing the lights in the most proper situations; a circumstance which was at one time too little attended to, as the recent shifting aud rebuilding of so many lighthouses on our coasts demoustrate.\u2014 ( Caledonian Mercury.] Death of Lord Archibeld Hamilton.\u2014It is with much regret we announce that thathighly distinguished and much respected nobleman, Lord Archibald Hamilton, M.P.for Lanarkshire, died at Hammersmith, near London, on Tuesday morning last.His Lordship had so far recovered from his previous illness, that he was making arrangements for his departure for Scotland, but, unfortunately, the effects of a severe cold, caught from atoo sudden exposure tothe air, terminated his life.Kepresentation of Lanarkshire.\u2014By the death of Lord Ar- cbibald Hamilton, a vacancy occurs iu the representation of Lanarkshire, and we observe that the Honourable Charles Douglas, second son of the Right Honourable Lord Douglas, has already proposed bimself as a candidate to fill it.Sir Michael Shaw Stewart has been proposed in opposition, and we suppose will command the Hamilton interest.omen We have before said that there has, for a long time, been no subject on which the London press has expressed so great a difference of opinion as on the formation of the Adminisira- tion.In the variety of publications, which this event has given rise to, we have met with the following review of the Acts of a Whig Administration, and copy it as an historical document, but in publishing it, express not only our hope, but our belief, that the adwixture of Tory leaven,s:ill remaining in the Cabinet, will save the present Admini-tration from the charges which Mr.John Cam Hobbouse has brought against the former Acts of Whigs when in power.1t is however but justice to say thut the picture is heavily charged.)\u20141Lio, MERCURY, THE WHIGS.(From St.James's Chronicle As there isa chance, thank Heaven! of the Whigs coming into power, unmixed and undiluted, we think it only correct to give a precis of what they did ou the last occasion on which they favoured us with their services.As we do not pretend to be half so clever as Mr.John « gin Hobbouse, we extract the the following very good account of them from his reply to Lord Erskine, printed by Hone in 1819.; Let us take à rapid glance at their acts and deeds in the one short year of their Adimini-tration, and thus in some measure supply the deficiencies of the noble author, Lord Grenville was one of the fathers of the act to suspend the Habeas Corpus act\u2014the Gagging aci\u2014the new fangled \u2018Treason act\u2014the principal promoter of the war against human fieedom in 1793\u2014the uprelenting prosecutor ot reformers at all times ; yet from the love of power, and desire ot emolument, the Whigs bowed down under the people\u2019s adversailes, and submitted to be picked out man by man by Lord Grenville, With the Grenvilles and the Windhams, with those whose most conspicuous attribute was a furious rage against all reform they made common cause.They reprobated the system pursued by Pitt, and Gienville, and Windham, and Dundas ; they calied (bat system ** ruinous inquisitorial, execrable, diabolical, destructive of liberty 3°\u2019 they said insuriection against it was a duty, the performance of which duty was merely a question of prudence, yet they took place under the Grenvilles to carry on the very system against which insurrection was a duty.They talked of the extravagance of the Pitt and Grenville\u2019s administration ; of the enormous load of debtand taxes which bent the people to the earth; yet no sooner were they in power than they added large sums to the deb, and increased the\u2019 taxes enormously, 2 They called the Income tax* a tax \u2018¢ worthy of the inquisition\u201d yet they raised that ** highwayman\u2019s tax\u2019 from 64 to 10 per cent.They taidt ¢ a man bad it in his power to make such alterations in his expenditure that the J'ax would not enti,ely crush him ; he might in some measure relieve himseli 5 if he lived cn the first floor, fur instänce, he might remove io the secoud ; ifhe was on the second fluor already, he might mouut to the attic story\u201d-he only who ** wus already found in the cellar\u201d was to be exempied.They increased the assessed taxes, They laid on no less than seven millions of taxes which on the average of he preceding years, was twice as much as Pitt laid on.eich addiog £6,000 a year to the incomes of the Dukes of Clarence, Kent, Cumberland, Sussex, and Cambridge, they gave to those Dukes from the Admiralty Droils, (fiom the money which in fairness should have been divided among our sailors) no less a sum than £75,000.\u2018They who had vehemently coudemned a profuse expenditure of the public money, when vutuf office, were more profuse and more extravagant than those they had justiy condemned.\u2018They granted more pensions and to a Luger amount they crammed oie hungry sycophants with the public money than had ever before been doue in the same space of time.They seized upon sinecures and all other corrupt sources of emolument for themselves aud their followers with a raven- ousness, which surprised even the blood suchess they pulled oif.They maintained, that a sinecure office was as much a man\u2019s property as his freehold.\u2018They toid tlie people, that Pitt's conduct was ** ruinous, des structive of liberty, execiable, inquisitional, infamous ; that

people) the auditor of his own accounts! They made him First Lord of (the Treasury.They made an act to enable him to hold a sinecure of £4000 a year, with a place of £6000 a yrar.They made the Chief Justice Lilenborough, a member of the King\u2019s Cabinet Council.This, so far as depended on them, was an attempt to desu oy the independence of a judge.They placed a Judge in a situation \u201c* to decide on biinging a man to trial in that very Court, where one of the ministers whom he had accused and irritated would preside, aud preside not merely to dhiect aud influence the Jury, but eventually, in his own person, to award the amount of his fine, and the duration ot bis imprisonment.\u201d § Thus manitesting (heir haired of liberty-their hatred of a free press ; thus endeavouring to destroy both ; thus taking strides towards arbitrary power, which Pitt and Dundas hau uever dared to take.They aticmpted to levy a fax on the raw produce of the country\u2014they proposed à tax on iron mines.\u2018They increased and extended the demoralizing Excise laws.They attempted to carry them into private families ; by which any wan\u2019s house might at all times, both by day und by night, be anvaded and searched by their myrinidons, aud his ucensils be locked up agaiust bim.They said, no man shall brew a barrel of table beer in his own house, for his own use, but by our leave, and under the inspection of our excisemau.No man shall nuke a gallon of currant wine, but by our permission, and under the eye of our Lxciseman.They opposed the Bank Restriction bill when out of place.They continued the Restriction when in place ; and They opposed the biil again when out of place.They commenced the Orders in Couucil, which almost ruined our commerce and manufactures.They condemued these orders when out of place.They made an act to legalize the employment of foreign mercenary troops in England, and they increased their nuui- her to 16,000.They made an act to indemnify those who had illegaHy employed them, 1 \u2018They, when out of place, condemned the barrack system, as a system of abuse in all its parts ; they reprobated it as being higuly destructive of freedom, by separating the soldier from the citizen, ** \u2018They continued the system while in place, They reprobated it again when out of place.They said Hanover was a miserable paltry spot of sand, which had cost us in money many times the value of all its land & all its houses, and more lives than it contained people, they repeated that it was a millstone about tbe necks of the people of England-.they repeated, that it kad bees, and would be again, the cause of mischievous interference with foreign nations, and the frequent cause of war.Having by truckling to Greuville, got into power, they said Hanover was as dear to us as Hampshire ; that we ought to go to war as cheerfully for the one as for the other ; and they declared uo peace should be made until Hanover was restored, They reprobated and condemned Lord Wellesley's administration of India.\u2018They pledged themselves thoroughly to investigate his conduct; but when in place, they refused all inquiry, They hunted down the man who accused bim, refused the papers necessary to enable him to substantiate his charges : they called upon hiin to prefer his charges without the documents; and when they oould no longer withhold them, they told him to ¢¢ proceed at his peril.\u201d .They made themselves popular by advecatiog Reform of Parliament ; sold themselves to the Grenvillites ; and stiginatise ed those who sill sought reform, wiih the name of Jacubins.They drew the bill 10 confine the people of Ireland to thelr houses, from sun.set (0 sun-rise, under pain of Military Execution, They left thatbill as a legacy to their successors.They offered meauly to give up the Catholic bill, if the King \u2018would consent to retain them in office, but the Kiog refused and kicked them all out.Y et this is the Administration Lord Erskine buldseut to your admiration !

and in des cided language referred to the late Turkish manifesto, declaratory of a fixed resolution to reject all interference ol foreign powers between the Porte and her rebellious subjects ; further, that on the 3lst.a repetition of their message by the Christian ministers produced a confirmation of the Turkish resolve.8d That on the Ath instant the ambassadors of the allies met, and, not having received any further satisfaction from the Porte, came to the determination of requiring their passports and leaving the Turkish capital.This last fact, however, must be understood to require confirmation.Up Lo this period, then, it appears that the dispute with Turkey was far from settled ; and it remains to be seen whether the decided tone assumed by the ambassadors would bring from the Porte any redecming message of a nature to re open the negociations.Some expectation seems to be entertained that Austria and Prussia, who have hither to been no parties to the quarrel, and are therefore well adopted for the character of\u2019 mediators, may; , for the sake of preserving peace in Lurope, uow for thé first time interpose, and prevent by their good offices the threatened rupture.TURKEY.\u2014The following is a translation of the note addressed hy the Ambassadors of France, England and Russia, to the Reis Effendi, on the 16th ult.« To His Lxcellency the Reis Lffendi.¢t The undersigned are charged by their respective Governments, to make to his Excellency the Reis Effendi,the foHowing declaration : \u201cDuring six years, the great Powers of Europe have been engaged in endeavours to induce the Sublime Porte to enter into a pacification of Greece, but these endeavours have been constantly unavailing, and thus a war of extermination has been prolonged between it and the Greeks, the results of which have been, on the one hand, calamities, the contemplation of which is dreadful tohnmanity ; and on the other hand, severe and intolerable losses in the commerce of all nations, whileat the same time, it has not been possibleto admit that the fate of Greece has been at all within tho control of the Ottoman power.The European Powers have, consequently, redoubled their zeal and renewed the instances which they before made, to dee ermine the Porte, with the aid of their mediation, to put an end to a struggle that it was essential to its own interests should no longer be kept up.The European Powers have the more flatters ed themselves in the hope of arriving at so happy a conclusion, as the Greeks themseives have in theinterval shown a desire to avail themselves of their mediation ; but the Sublime Porte has hitber to refused to listen to counsels dictated by sentiments of benevolenee and friendship.ln this state of affairs, the Courts of France, Euglaud and Russia, bave considered 1t their duty to define, by a special treaty, the line of conduct they are resolved to observe, in order to arrive at the object towards which the wishes and interests of all the Christian Powers tend, ** Ju execution of one of the clauses of this treaty, theunder- signed have been charged to declare to the government of the Sublime Porte, that they now in a formal manner offer their me- diatiou between it and the Greeks, to put au end to the warand to regulate, by a fricndly negotiation, the relations which are to exist be:ween them in future, That furiher, and to the end that the success of this mediation may be facilitated, they propose to the Governmeat of the Sublime Porte an armisiice for suspending all acts of bostjlity against the Greeks, to whom a similar proposition is this moment ARSE 18 THE QUEBEC GAZETTE.addressed.Finally, they expect at the end of fifteen days the Divan will clearly make known its determination, Tue undersigned Hauer themselves, thai it will be conformable to the wish of ihe Allied Courts § but it is theirduty not to conceal from the Reis Effendi, that a new refusal, an evasion orin-afRcient answer, even a total silence ou the part of his Government, will piace the Allied Courts under the necessity of recurring to such measures us they shall judge most efticucious for puiting un end 10 @ state of things, which is become incompatible even with the irue inteiests of the Sublime Porte, with whe recwity of commerce iv general, and with the perfect tranquilliiy of Europe.Sigued, C.GUILLEMINOT, S.CANNING, RIBEAUPIERRE.August 16, 1827.gee EAE UNITED STATES.(Translsted for the New York Daily Advertiser.)

kind in Great Britain.The power of some of them is woa- derful.In the county of Curnwall tor example, there are some of 600 horse power.Admitting that, all are equal, and each have the power of 25 horses, the result of the whole would be a power equal to that of 375,000 horses.Now, according to Watt's estimation, the power of a horse equals that of five men and a half.~Eagland possesses, by meaus of these same machines, a power equal to that of 2,000,000 men.We may remark,also, that as each horse demands for his annual nou- rishmeat, the produce of two acres of land, the inhabitants of that country have, for the use of steam engines, 750,000 acres at their disposal, Pratina.\u2014There has lately been discovered in the mines of Ural, a piece of P.atina weighing about ten pounds.Until now, this rare metal has been found only in very small quantiry.Mineralogists have observed that the different metals which are taken from the earth, are found in abundance according to their respective utility.Iron, the most useful, is likewise most common ; consequently it has been thought it was possible that Platina, which may answer tle same purposes asiron, and to which, the resistance of the acids does not render it suscépti- ble of oxydating itself, gives it the advaniage of being used in many cases where [ron caanot be, will finally be discovered in abundance as great as lron itself, This anticipation may appear, without doubt, a httle romantic; but the discovery of so large a mass of this rare metal, appears already to give con- istency to the theory advanced.§

develope themselves, in a manner which can:.ot fail of being highly satisfactory to the Country.To the farmerin particular, the subject is one of a most interesting and cheering nature, His produce now commands a fair price, and is purchased with avidityin the Lower-Canada Markets.The depression which was formerly felt, is passing away, and the prospect before usis animating.Itis true, that the Act which admits our grain into Englaud on a 1rore advantageous terms, than that of our rivals, is limited in its duration to Ist May next; but it must at the same time be remembered, that the question ofthe \u2018\u201c Corn Trade,\u201d generally, has again to undergo discussion in the Imperial Parliament, and tatin any general arrangement which may be determined upon, we have the most perfect assurance that, our interests will not be forgotten, and that it is more than probable, these advantages will be continued to us, on a more permanent footing.Indeed, in every thing which relates tor the \u2018I'rade of Canada.the mostfavorable disposition has been evinced, and it is only required on our parts, that we shall shew our ability to supply the Markets thrown open o us.This applies particularly tothe West Indies ; aud although it Las been objected that, we are not adequate to supply the demands of that Market, the objection we thiuk, has been made by those, who have buta very incorrectidea, of the quantities of Wheat avd Flour, which Canada, with hier rapidly increasing population, is capable of furnishing,if a Markets insured for her,where they canbe disposed of.Much however must necessarily depend on the quality of the articles she exports, and in this respect, the Millers of the Country, and others concerned in the manufacture of Flour, should feel an interest, be taking every means in their power, to raise the character of this staple article, as high as possible.We are happy to observe that, in the article of Pork, more has been done this summer, than for many seasons past, and we have no doubt this important article of exportation as well as salted Beef of which, sone years ago, large quantities were sent from the Province, will merit the attention of our Farmers, from the prices which we may reasonably expect they will bear in the ensuing Spring.On the whole, it issatisfactory to observe the favorable change which has taken place in the Commerce ofthe Country, and the consequent activity of all persons connected with its different branches.\u2014 U.C.Gazelle.From the Montreal Gazelle, 1st Nov.Court oF Quarter SEsstoNs,\u2014This Court closed

and Lord CAwDor, à personal friend of His MasEsTy, has received the rank of Earl Cawpor.The only article of real interest to be found in these papers is the notice of the return of Captain Parry, from his voyage of discovery, who arrived at the Admiralty, on the same day with Captain FraANKuIN, via NEW-York.The latter may be said to have been successful, having estab_ lished the fact of a passage from Baffin\u2019s Bay (says the Liverpool Advertiser of Octr.2nd) to Behring\u2019s Straits, \u2018¢ beyond all doubt.\u201d The former, Captain Parry, who has evinced an admirable courage, energy and good management in all his voyages, has been unsuccessful, if it can be called so, to have proved that physical impediments pre- veat further success in the pursuit, in which he has acquir- THE QUEBEC GAZETTE.ed so much fame, and undergone so many difficulties, It appears that in the high latitude which he reached, nearly 83 degrees, there is a current which sets southward, and whether on ice or water, which is in fact the same thing, the ice being disjoined, carries the traveller from the North Pole, and bars any further advance towards it.Captain PARRY was 62 days in the ice-bergs, and we are happy to say, has returned to the comfort of home in good health, without losing a man by sickness or accident.The affairs of the Continent are stillunsettled, and therefore interesting.Those which claim most attention are, the state of the PENINsuLA, the Russian war with Persia, and the negociations with the Porte, if we may so say of him who refuses to treat, respecting the future condition of Greece.It appears from the French papers, that the insurrection in CATALONIA, set on fuot by the friends or the retended friends of FERDINAND, as \u2018 Absolute King,\u201d has become of a serious character.1t is, perhaps, not a bad satire on the alleged taste of the public mind for Liberalism, in politics and Religion, and no friendly commentary on the pages which have been written on the \u2018 march of intellect,\u201d the * temper of the times &e.\u201d to find people taking arms in favor of despotism, and the ¢ exploded system.\u201d Yetsuch is the fact, and seriously, we find that Fer- DINAND has left Maprip in order to show these rebels that he is free and absolute enough, to satisfy their utmost aspirations, We do not account for, or defend the singular taste of these Insurgents; but it appears highly ludicrous, contrasted withsome things that we have read.Perhaps the best method that ERDINAND can adopt to show his perfect freedom wouldbe,to play the Stork in the Fable,among the Frogs.In PorTUG iL, the re-action against the Constitution is showing itself in great force.This also is against the \u201cmarch of mind.\u201d The British troops were sent to LIsBON to maintain the Government chosen by the people, which then was supposed to he the Constitutional.Should the infallible vulgar prefer the old regime, our brave troops must return, their ¢¢ occupation\u201d in that case, being literally \u201cgone\u201d, In the mean time their presence preserves perfect tranquillity, Dox MiguEL\u2019s arrival was daily expected.The Russians have obtained a signal viciory over the PERsiANs.The Porte had, up to the latest dates, given no answer to the ultimalum of the Allied Powers, The rumors in the Stock Exchange were warlike, and the quidnuncs there, for their own purposes, would have a war with Turkey, and an immediate invasion of its territories.We feel no conti- dence in any political news froin the City, since we find they have had recourse even to the stale and most nonsensical rumors of Canadian riots and difficulties to depreciate the Funds.The following quotation from the Morning Herald of the 29th September will amuse our readers.\u2014\u2018 The \u201c Quebec papers state, that the principal promoter of the late ¢¢ riots, and seditious movements in Canada has been detected.He + immediately left the British Lines, and has commenced a ¢« paper in Plattsburgh!!!\u201d To such contrivances, on a larger scale of deception, we must attribute the fall of the Funds tc 86} during the week.Consols closed, however, on the 29th Septr.in the evening 87 1-8.LATEST NEWS.LONDON, October 1.City, Saturday Evening.\u2014The Money Market has been very heavy to-day There hasbeen another sale of Exchequer Bills on behalf of the Bank.The quantity sold was 90,000.aud the price 52.They were afterwards done at 51, A few days ago they were 61.This is pretty strong evidence of the truth of our assertion yesterday, that the market was getting saturated.The bank bas disposed of about two millions and a half of the new issue, and the consequence hasbeen the sweeping of nearly all the loose money out of the market.We hear no more talk about the plentifulness of money; on the contrary, they say money is in demand.The object of the Bank in selling these bills is evidently the drawing in of the paper.Will not this contracting of the currency have an effect upon the price of stock generally ?The salesof exchequer bills aiready effecied have lowered the price of these securities very considerably ;

but the latter, nothing short of the gift of prophecy could have anticipated, Noone quality beside cunning andduplicity, so preemivently distinguishes his Catholic Majesty, as the regard which be has shown to his personal safety, and the timidity with which he has uniformly shrunk from the most distantappear- ance of danger.His brother, Don Carlos, bad preceeded him to Catalonia, and a Regency had been formed in Madrid tor the government of the kingdom during Ferdinand\u2019s absence, at the head of which the Queen had been placed.The court of Madrid does not seem to rely exclusively on this parade of royalty through disuffecied provinces.An impesiug military force is to precede or follow the King, to convince the insurgents that his Majesty, whether free or iu bondage, bas power to make his government respected.We have a suspicion, that more prominence has been given (o the circumstances of thisrebellivn than it deserves, in order to afforda pretext forulterrpi volitical designs.From the Liverpool Albion of October 2.LoNpon, September 29, (From our Correspondent.\u2014Half past seven.) Captain Parry, accompanied by Mr.Beverley, surgeon of November 8, the expedition, arrived at the Admiralty this morning, proceeded as far as 829 45, having suffered the greatest pris vations from cold, and the laborious exertions of dragging the boats over large patches of ice ; and in other places, where the ice was 50 thiu as not to admit of the weight of the boats, but not sufficiently clear of the water, as to cause rowing most la borious, The cold was most intense, and fiequemly with rain, Upon one occasion it fell incessantly for thirty-six hours, The reindeer were soon killed, as being entirely useless, from the state of the ice, &c.they could not be fastened to the boats, Two bears were shot, and afforded a supply of fresh meat to the crew.While the party were on the ice, Lieutenant Foster was employed in surveying the coasts in the vicinity of Spitzbergen.Although the officers and men of the expedition suffered the greatest privations, we are happy to say no lives have been lost.Franklin, accompanied by Doctor Richardson, arrived also at the Admiralty.All the jutrepid travellers had lon audicuces with His Royal Highness the Lord High Admiral, ( Prom the Inverness Courier.) Rerury oF CaprTaIN PArry.=On Wednesday morning, Captain Parry, and his surgeon, Dr Beverly, arrived at tho Caledonian Hotel here, after another arduous but unsuccessful attempt to accomplish the Polar voyage.Captain Parry came to Inverness by the Chichester Revenue Cutter, commanded by Captain John Stuart, having fortunately fallen in with Captain 8.in the Orkneys, on being driven in there on the 22d ult.The history of the present enterprise is brief; and, while we have to communicate the agreeable news of the safe re turn of Captain Parry to his country and friends, we are able, at the same to vouch for the accuracy of the following particulars.Captain Parry on leaving the Discovery Ship at the appointed place, off ihe Spitzbergen coast, betook himself to the sledge-boats prepared for his conveyance over the ice, in pursuance of his original intentions and instructions, and was out for the space of sixty-one days; one of the boats being under his own charge, and the other under that of Lieutenant Ross.These two boats were hauled over the ice by the crew of the ship, twelve wen to each; and after undergoing incredible fu.tigue, they felt, that for a great part of he time, they were on floating icebergs which carried them southward, while the y were stretching every nerve to proceed northward; and thus of necessity, they weve compelled tv abandon the enterprize.To es:abli-h this important fact in the clearest point of view, we have to mention that during the last three days of the expedition, and on taking his ohservations by the chronometer, Captain Parry found that his boats had gained two miles only.\u2018The expedition arrived at latitude 82 45.; and had it proceeded hut fifteen miles further, Captain Parry aud his men would have obtained the pecuniary remuneration to which they were entitled on reaching 83 ; buteven thi.short distance was found to be unattainable by any physical effort.Nearly in the same line proceeded, to the Hecla.Immediateiy on reaching the ship the expedition then proceeded homeward.We are happy to add, that Captain Parry.his oflicers and men, are all in good health.\u2014 Liverpool Advertiser Oct.2nd.\u2014-\u2014e A very extraordinary report is in cirenlation among the principal Foreign merchants of the City : itis, that a letter from Mr.Fuskisson bas bern addressrd to one of the English Am- bas-adors, reiative 10 the privileges at present enjoyed by British subjects abroad, and the propriety of withdrawing them entirely.The Ambassador had submitted the letter to some eminent merchants on the Continent, and the copy of the docu~ ment has, in consequence, fonud its way to Londun.\u2014 Atlas.THAmEs TUNNEL -Mr, Bruvel tas reported to the Committee, that he had commenced a forward movement with the shield ;

and it is therefore my principal object in calling this meeting to-day, to hear the opinions and suggestions of all who may be disposed to express them, ** In the first place, however, I beg permission to present toyou the two drawings, or designs, which are the performance and composition of Capt.Young, of the 79th Regt.I thiuk, I may take theliberty with him to say, that these are produced from repeated conversations he and 1 had on this subject, during our daily walks last winter : they are subject to revisal, to alteration, and cven to a total abandonment of them for others, if\u2019 other suggestions shall be made ; orlarger means than we have calculated upon shall be fouud.But on this point, 1 would particularly impress upon your consideration, that I do not propose any splendid trophy equal to the great names, the subject of it.A monument worthy of General Wolfe, and worthy of Fngland, has been placed in Westminster Abbey.My only objectis to remove a subject of general regret, \u2018 that in Quebec, nothing is fonnd to honor the memory of WorrE, nothing more than if his great achievements bad been effected in other countries distant or unknown to us.\u201d\u2019\u2014 Thus limiting our views, I think a plain Column, simple and unpretending in its architecture, the most fit, and the least obnoxious to public criticism 5 I think it the most becoming private subscription, and above all, most likely to be immediately accomplished\u2014these designs, however, are now submitted to you.\u201c I did hope that I might have been able to state to the General Meeting to-day, a report of the amount placed upon the Subscription Lists, which have been circulated, butseveralof them have not yet been returned\u2014and considerable additions may yet, therefore, be expected.*\u201c On thissubject I beg further to say, that I believe some misunderstanding, or want of arrangement has been felt\u2014 I ain happy t: think of no consequence\u2014as it is not intended to cluse the subscription at present, a better arrangement may be adopted hereafter.\u2014I ought, perhaps, here to state, that a most handsome offer had been made at New York, to contribute to the subscription list, and although it had not been intended to go beyond the limits of Canada on the subject, yet | have accepted the offer as the expression of these liberal feelings.«There remains nnly ans point moro far me ta remark upon, but it is one which [ feel, as peculiarly calling for an ox.planation, It isthe idea, that it may, by some, be thought great presumption in any individual to stir and act upon a matter of such high public interest as this is, without having previously shown that the public, (I mean the Le- gisluture of the Province) has not chosen to undertake the work ; to this, Gentlemen, I have only to say, that il is my intention to subinit the subject, and also our progress in it, to the consideration of the Legislature ; but I would also prepare the means of working upon the smaller funds, should my public recommendation of'it fail on the greater scale.«¢ I shall, by and by, beg leave to propose a small Committee of management in all minor details, but always with the idea of renewing my calls for General Meetings, as our progress shall advance.*\u201c I now leave the subject, Gentlemen, to yourselves,\u2019 Hrs ExcELLENCY then named the following Committee : The Honbie, the Curer JusTicEe,\u2014Chairman, Mr.Justice TASCHEREAU, Major General DARLING, Lieut.Colonel CockBURrN, R.À.Capt.Youne, 79th Highlanders, Captain MErHuisn, R.E.Mr.GEorGE PEMBERTON, The Chief Justice then moved the thanks of the meeting to His Excellency the Governor General for the pains he had taken in bringing this interesting subject before them which was carried unanimously\u2014when the meeling adjourned, nnn Bank RoBBERY.\u2014NATRANIEL SNELSON, Teller of the Branch Bank of Virgini«,in the town of Petersburg, in that State, lately abconded with notes and cash belonging to the company, to the amount of 40.000 o-lars, with which he made his escape to this province, and arrived in Quebec, under the assumed name, of WiLLiay Maxwerr.He was closeiy pursed by Mr.Woop, of Petersburg, provided with proper authority to apprehend the culprit, who reached this city during the day on which the tuzitive had sailed for Liverpool in the Mary Cumming, but the weather being calm, hopes were entertained that he migh: be avertaken, and the Steam Boat Hercules having been chartered for the purpose of pursuing me Brig, a Warrant was nut into the hands oy Capt.Fenwick, Marshal of the Court of Vice-Admiratty, who embarked in «he He cules, which the Wharfat2 o\u2019click A.M.on Friday about 24 hours after the Mary.We regret to say that having proceeded as far as Kamouraska withoutcom.ng up with the object, the progress of the st-amer bei:g retarded by a b-avy head sea, the chase was abandoned, and the robber has for the present escaped 3 though if proper means have heen tuken for conveying information direct from New York to Liverpool, ie may perhaps be «pprehend:d on his arrival at the latter port 3 nor will he be more safe on the Continent of Europe.Yr.Wood received avery us.isiance,trom the authorities ia \u2018his cndeavourr to-ag\" (ond the idk \u2019 left | u | 21 We have Hacigax papers to the 21th ulto.They present nothing new.An Juquest was held it Ramouwia:ka on the 21, Enstant by the Coroner, super visum corporis Moye Phaueas dit flay mond, The virdict vas vibful musder by oue Lovis Du;
