and for many a year thereafter, Joe Chickweed looked upon him as a most valuable assistant.\u2014 CHARLES DICKENS AND HIS FAMILY.The following letters are reported to be in circulation among the friends of Mr.and Mrs.Dickens : Tavistock Ilouse, T'avistock Square, London, W.E.Tuesday, May 25, 1838.} My dear Arthur: You have not only my full permission to show this, but I beg you to show, to any one who wishes to do me right, or to any one who muy have been misled into doing me wrong.Faithfuily, &c.To Arthur Smith, Esq.Tavistock House, Tavistock Square, } Loud8u, W.E., Tuesday, May 25, 1858.Mrs.Dickens and [ have lived unhappily together for many ye:rs.Hardly any onc who has known us intimately can fail to have known that we are, in all respects of character and temperament, C.D.wonderfully unsuited to each other.I, he continued, in a, | been their playmate, nurse, instructress, friend, protectress, adviser and companion.In the manly consideration towards Mus.Dickens, whit: 1 owe to my wife, I will merely remark of her, that the peculiarity of her character has thrown all the children on some one else.I do not know\u2014 I cannot by any stretch of fancy imagine \u2014what would have become of them but for this aunt, who has grown up with them, to whom they are devoted, and who has sacrificed the best part of her youth and life to them, She has remonstrated, reasoned, suffered and toiled, and came again to prevent a separation between Mrs.Dickens and me.Mrs.Dickens has often expressed to her her sense of affectionate care and devotion in the house\u2014never more strongly than within the last twelve months.l'or some years past Mrs.Dickens has been in the habit of representing to me that it would be better for her to go away and live apart; that her always increasing estrangement made a mental disorder under which she sometimes labors\u2014more, that she felt herself unfit for the life she had to lead as my wife, and that she would be far better away.I have uniformly replied that we must bear our misfortuune and fight the fight out to the end ; that the children were the first consideration, and that I feared they must bind us together \u2018in appearance.\u2019 At length, within these three weeks, it was suggested to me by IForster that even for their sakes it would surely be better to reconstruct and re-arrange their unhappy home.I empowered him to treat with Mrs.Dickens, as the friend of both of us for one and twenty years.Mrs.Dickens wished to add, on her part, Mark Lemon, and did so.On Saturday last Lemon wrote to Foster that Mrs.Dickens \u2018erate- fully and thankfully accepted\u2019 the fms I proposed to her.: _ Of the pecuniary part of them, I will only say that I believe they are as generous as 1f Mrs.Dickens were a luly of distinction and I a man of fortune.The remaining parts of them are easily describ- ed\u2014my cldest boy to live with Mrs.Dickens and tuke care of her; my eldest girl to keep my house; both my girls, and all my children but the eldest son, to live with me in the continued companionship of their aunt Georgine, for whom they have all the tenderest affection that I have ever seen among young people, and who has a higher claim (as I have cften declared for many years) upon my affection, respect, and gratitude, than anybody in thie world.I hope that no une who may become acquainted with what I write here can possibly be so crucl and unjust as to put any misconstruction on our separation, so far.My elder children all understand it perfectly, and all accept it as inevitable.There is not a shadow of doubt or concealment among us ; my eldest son and I are one as to it all.Two wicked persons who should have spoken very differently of me, in consideration of earned respect and gratitude, have (as I am told, and indced to my personal knowledge) coupled with this separation the name of a young lady for whom I have a great attachment and regard.I will not repeat her name\u2014TI honor it too much.Upon my soul and honor, there is not on this earth a more virtuous and spotless creature than that young lady.\u2014 I know her tu be innocent and pure, and as good as my own dear daushters.\u2014 Further, I am quite sure that Mvs.Dickens, having received this assurance from me, must now believe it, in the respect I know her to have for me, and in the perfect confidence I know her in her better moments to repose in my truthfulness.On this head again, there is not a shadow of doubt or concealment between my children and me.All is open and plain among us, as though we were brothers and sisters.They are perfectly certain that I would not deceive them, and the confidence among us is without a fear.C.D.May 29, 1858.It having been stated to us that in reference to the differences which have resulted in the separation of Mr, and Mrs.Charles Dickens, certain statements have been circulated that such differences are cccasioned by circumstances deeply affecting the morul character of Mr.Dickens, and compromising the reputation and good name of others, we solemnly declarz that we now disbelieve such statements.We \u2018know that they are not believed by Mrs.Dickens, and we pledge ourselves on all occasions to éontradict them as entirely destitute of foundation.(Here follows the siznatures of Mrs.Hogarth and her youngest daughter.) D.J.A.\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014_e BEAUTIFUL PRESENT FRoM Lours Na- POLEON TO A CANADA Cmurecm.\u2014We see it stated in the St.Thomas Dispatch that the Emperor Napoleon has presented to the Church of St Thomas, through the Rev.Mr.Trachon, a valuable dessert of silver, inclosed in a splendid case with the Imperial Arms, accompanied by a gracious letter.As the gift was intended to aid the mission, it was to be raffled for on the 18th of August next, at $4 per ticket.Is there no pnliticzl move in this gift ?' UNCLE FRANK AND HIS YOUNG RELATIVES.CONVERSATIONS IN ZOOLOGY.TILE DIFFERENCES BETWEEN MAN AND TILE LOWER ANIMALS.MEN AND ANIMALS.Uncle Frank.\u2014And now, having disposed of the mentul distinctions between men and the lower animals, let us endeavor to ascertain th» bodily distinctions.John,\u2014That will ba very casy, indeed ! Here is our cow; let us compare its parts with our own, and see the difference.Wille \u2014Very well than, the first difference I notice between John and the cow is, that the cow has a tail, of which John is deficient.Willie is deficient.Lydia.\u2014The cow has four legs, or rather a pair of tore legs, and a pair of hind legs, whilst man has one pair of legs.Bertha.\u2014 But we have hands and fingers, and toes, which the cow has not.John.\u2014And the cow's skin is thick and covered all over with hair, whilst our skin is fair, delicate, thin, and very sensitive, and only partially covered with hair.Lydia.\u2014The cow has a very long fice, and in proportion to its size, but a very small head.but her teeth are very much larger than man\u2019s teeth, and are placed in an oblique position, whilst ours are vertical ; besides this, she has a hard pad in her upper jaw instead of incisors, as we have before seen.Her ears too, are long and hang down.Uncle Frank.\u2014There is another distinction, and a very notable one, which you have omitted, viz.the position of the cow's head.\u201d Bertha.\u2014Yes! that is an important difference.Our heads are erect so that our eyes can look upwards to the skies, and aid our minds in the contemplation of us long for higher enjoyments than this lower animals generally, have their heads hanging downwards\u2014their eyes to the earth.Lydia.\u2014Their bodies too arc horizont- al\u2014seeing that they are made to go on all fours, but man is made to stand in an upright posture, and walk on one pair of legs.: Uncle Frank \u2014That is merely an effect of another distinction between man and the lower animals generally.Let us see if we cannot pursue a more methodical plan of marking out the distine- ticns.We have shown that man possesses many mental d'stinctions which the lower animals do not possess, arising from his possessing a larger brain, and an immor- tul soul to act upon it.Now, by keeping this in view, we shall more easily arrive at a knowledge of his physical distinctions which are, really, the effects of the mental.À man, with his mind thinks \u201c{ will make myself some clothes to wear\u2014I will build houses\u2014I will plough the field, or dig and plant che garden\u2014I will draw a beautiful picture with pencil ard colors\u2014 [ will write letters to my friends\u2014I will make myself a pretty little knife\u2014I will spin this wool into cloth, ete.So, as he thinks, he will want to do these things, in order to gratify his new desires.He will then find that if his Maker had made him with a horizontal body like a cow, and to go on all fours as all quadrupeds do, or to crawl like a worm, or to grasp like a monkey, he could not fulfil these desires.For, if he required four limbs to enable lim to stand, or walk, he could not write with his hands, or plough, or build, or spin, or draw, or dig and plant.So that in consequence of, his having such greut mental powers he cannot spare all his limbs for standing, or walking ; he therefore requires something at the extremities of his lower limbs to enable him to stand or walk\u2014 John.\u2014TFect, of course! he would not be able to stand without feet\u2014he would be like a boy whom I saw walking aver the Magog Bridge on stilts\u2014he would be obliged to stretch his legs to an unusual width to enable him to stand at ull, and the least touch would throw him down.Willie \u2014Yes, and toes at the ends of those feet, with nice little joints in them, and an arch under the sole of his foot, and a good heel, to enable him to spring off the ground, or to stand firmly without being in danger of being blown over like a boy on stilts.But that reminds me that Apes and Baboons are said to be able to stand or walk as we dois acquainted with their structure, Willie; for though they may, by education, be taught to stand on two limbs, or even to walk on them, it is far from being nat- less pain.Were you to examine the foot of one of these animals, which approach the nearest to man in the structure of their short that it could not rest easily upon it ; and, if you gave him a slight touch, the ape would fall down.In your feet, the heel bone is long, and, with the instep, forms an arch under the foot, so that the leg can rest firmly on it.John.\u2014Then it appears that we stand on a couple of arches.Bertha.\u2014And so does a bird.I noticed one just now as it stood on the wood pile.Uncle Frank.\u2014Yes a bird stands upon two arches formed by its toes, three of which ure in front and one behind\u2014the onc behind serves the purpose of a heel.To be continued.THE PHYSICAL DISTINCTIONS BETWEEN | John.\u2014And a pair of horns of which | scree: ; Agriculture.\u2018 SEASONABLE HINTS ON ! THE PIG.\u2019 } \u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 | Look well to the pigs and pens this month.Pigs need particular care and | protection from the extremse heat of the \u2018sun at this season to do well.See that they have shade, shelter, and clean, comfortable pens, for pigs, like bipeds, do best in comfortable quarters.Many build their | hog-pens over a running stream, to avoid the nuisance of the ammonia which arises from the manure, and therefore annually suffer the loss of the fattening properties of their whole rye, corn and buckwheat crops, by permitting the voidings to run down the stream.Of course no farmer can ever prosper who permits the waste of so much valuable fertilizing matter as this and when it can be prevented, as well as the health of his pigs, and the atmosphere of the neighborhood purified by simply feeding a few handsful of charcoal to the pigs daily, it is a matter of great surprise that so simple a precaution as this should be neglected, and a most abominable nui- | sance kept up to the annoyance of the | whole neizhborhood.The strong odor of the hog-stye is frequently the first salute of the stranger in approaching an otherwise neat and tidy farmer's residence, whereas, the offensive effluvia might be | altogether arrested and concentrated by keeping on hand a barrel of charcoal and feeding a few handsful occasionally to the thogs, who will eat it more greedily than corn.Charcoal not only acts as a disin- :fectant, but also greatly promotes the health and growth of swine, and any far- imer who undertakes to make nice pork without using charcoal to promote the fattening of it, and particularly to feed it at killing time, to purify and prevent the fetid odor which arises from the cleaning of the intestines, deserves to be made to feed and \u2018keep company with the grunters whom his stupid ignorance or laziness compels to live and die in filth.If ever lany neighborhood is afflicted with the \u201chog cholera,\u201d put it down to the disgusting practice of herding them too closely together, and compelling them to live in the midst of their own offul.Wherever any regard is pail to the feeding of charcoal and other cleanly arrangements, pigs may be kept in the midst of largo towns without any person apparently being the wiser of it.Thus much we \u2018have felt called upon to say in behalf of the .unhappy porker herded in confined pens.Shoats may be made to obtain a fine growth during this and the coming month if a little ground corn, rye and oats be mixed with their milk or slop, so that by the time the corn is ripe in the cornfields they will already have arrived at a hog's estate,\u2014and then, if they are only \u201c\u2018crowded a little\u201d with a mash of potatoes, pumpkins, turnips, and meal, they will have God and his wonderful works, and make : | world can afford\u2014whilst the cow, and the made such progress by the first of October or November, that at the end of the warm days of Indian summer, if the hogs be of the right breed, they will scarcely be able to eat half the ration of a lean hog, and will soon become so fut as to be unable to get up.Pork fattened and grown upon any other system will cost the owner twice as much for an inferior article.One reason why Western pork is, and always will be, inferior in quality to the \u201cJersey fat- ted,\u201d is because the Western farmers du not take sufficient pains in raising and fattening it.[Jersey Farmer.ASHES AND THE POTATO ROT.The rot appears to have been far less extensive in its ravages last year than it was the year before.Nevertheless, it made its appearance in some places and did no little damage, especially to late- planted potatoes.I have always been satisfied that lime, ashes, or some other alkalescent article would be found the best, if not the remedy for this disease, and where it last year made its appearance on a plot of potatoes I determined to test the truth or falsity of my belief, by reducing it at once to actual experiment.I accordingly took some ashes, and going into the potatos piece, commenced applying it by lifting up the tops, and sprinkling a handful among the stalks of each hill.I was particularly careful to insert it as nearly as practicable in the verv centre of the plants, in order that the roots as well as the tops might, if necessary, be benefited by the application.In a few days the rot, on the rows ashed, was stopped, while two rows on one side, upon which no application was made, were completely destroyed.1 can attribute the salvation of the crop to no other influence than that exerted by the ashes, and to my mind, the experiment was conclusive, Every one must feel rejoiced at the evident sutsidence of this plague, which at one time threatened the entire annihilation of this valuable esculent; but should it return again to assail it, let every one be prepared to apply the remedy and at once.There is some principle which produces the disease ; and if this can be corrected, and its deleterious and fatal effects neutralised by an application so cheap and simple as wood ashes, it should certainly not be withheld.Millions of bushels of this root have boen destroyed during the career of this perplexing discase.On many farms, every tuber was lost in 1852.Uncle Frank.\u2014XNot by any person who | ural to them, and must give them more or | bodies, you would find the heel bone so! I never have cut my potatoes nor applied fermentable manure to them since \u2018the disease first made its appearance, but \u2018although I have been more fortunate than | my neighbors who have done both in direct opposition to my advice, I have not, by any means enjoyed perfect immunity, land have been, to a considerable extent, a Ashes are a valu- \u2018able manure, imparting warmth and sweet- | ness to the soil, and producing a vigorous action of the filaments of the roots of all vegetables to which they are applied.[Germantown Telegraph.sufferer from its effects.Roor PruNinc.The root pruning of trees as a means of promoting fruitfulness {does not seem to meet with much favor.\u2018As a system for general culture it will not \u201cof course, be popular, neither is it neces- 'sary.Occasionally, however it may be practiced with decided advantage.Where fruit trees are growing in very rich soil, Isuch as in small, highly cultivated gar- \u2018dens, and produce annually an immense lerop of branches, but no fruit, cutting off ja few of the strongest roots, is at once the \u2018most simple and certain method of checking growth.If this is carefully perform- \u2018ed early this month, fruiting buds may be \u2018formed before the completion of growth.; [W.Saunders._ + | pe - I.SE EE LL iitananfite Lo ALU _\u2014 ; ; - - ; , ¢ being able to attend the Dixnzr 70 Hox, J.A, Maétonaun.\u2014 the common benefit of what we conceive to be Eastern Townships\u2019 Bank.Better News recom Fraser River | The Atlantic Telegraph in Bing Ce arbre Be me 5 .presence of Mr.Attorney General Macdonald \u2018cafe and rrimitive prineinles, «wé .old Mines.Operation.jot : ini has given St.Thomas, in connection with the Raj Frimitive principles, \u2018we preach not The Charter of the Eastern Townships\u2019} By the arrival of the Moses Taylor at New!

bribery was practised by his friends to secure his return.They bought votes as openly as men buy ard sell in a common market.A grip of the hand was the mode of conveyance employed ; and the buying price varied, according to the supply and demand, at different hours of the day, prices varying from $5 to £5 per vote, Corruption stalked shamelessly in the open streets; and bribes were given and promised by hundreds in #ight of th~ polling beok, and in tle presence of numbers of persons.As soon as Parliament meets, and an opportunity offers to investigate the clection, Mr.Brown will find his seat in the House rather insecure, or we much mistake the Torontonians.Tux INTERCOLONIAL RAILnoan.\u2014The sooner the British American Provinces arc united in one grand federation, and connected with the mother country by different and more intimate relations, the better for themselves, the mother country and the world; but a political union would be fruitless withous the physical barriers, which keep the Provinces separate are remove ed ; and any mcasure which has for its object the removal of these barriers ought to have the general support of the Emyire.Holding thesc views, we are glad to find that the project of connecting the Lower Provinces with Canada by means of intercolonial railroad, meets with great support in England in quarters where its support may be comething more than good will.In a letter recently addressed by Viscount Bury, to the Right Honorable Sir E.Bulwer Lytton, Colonial Secretary, we find the following which will be of interest to those who watch the progress of the scheme :\u2014The committee have the pleasure to acquaint you that they have secured the co-operation of influential parties in this conntry- as well as in the colonies, The abundance and cheapness of capital and labor render the moment highly propitious for commencing such ah undertaking, and nothing is wanting to ensure its success, but that measure of support from the Imperial Government which the Colonies were led to expect froin former administrations.If Her Majesty's Government shall be picased to declare their mtention of recommending Parliament in the ensuing session to take the necessary steps for this puopose, the Committee feel confident of being able to make arrangements for the prompt execution of a work which is xcknowledged on all hands to be of the highest naiiond] importance in a commercial, po'itical, and military point of view.mess A AM DEN NAT Ile-@Gpening of St.Peter\u2019s Church, Sherbrooke.This-churech, after being closed for several weeks: to undergo certain repairs was re-opened \"on Surday last, on which occasion his Lordship the Bishop of Quebec, preached two very able \u2018 scrmous-\u2014in the morning from John 1C and part -of the 26th v.and in the evening from Romans Sth 9 end i v.His Lordship administered the Holy Com- maunien in connection with the Morning Service to a large number of communicants.Prior tu the commencement of the morning service the following congratulatory address, which was very numerously signed, was pre- =cnted by the Wardens and Congregation, to ilis Lordship in the body of the Church.\u201cf0 THE RIGUT REVEREND THE LORD BISHOP OF QUEBEC, We the parishioners of St.Peters\u2019s Church, Rherbrooke, desire to express to your Lordship the very great gratification we {feel at your Lordships kind visit to us on this the occasion of the re-opening of our Church for Divine Service.We beg to assure vour Lordship that, apart from the reverence due to your high office, we ¢ntertain for you personally the strongest feelings of regard, feelings, we arc bound to say} due to the kindly sympaiby you have at all times displayed iu our affairs.We are conscious that in your high position great responsibility must of necessity entail great anxiety, and if the attached feelings of a humble branch of the Church in your Diocese can in any measure alleviate that anxiety, we tender you with all respect such attachment.In conclusion, we trust that you may long be spared to guide the Church in this Diocese, into that position befitting the Church of Christ when (under the action of self-government, recently granted to us,) Temedies may be found for all internal troubles, and we may shew to the world that free discussion, and harmonious action may be co-existent.To which his Lordship replied, as follows :\u2014 MY CHRISTIAN BRETHREN, The very kind address which you have taken the occasion of my visit to present to me is the Anore welcome to my feclings because it Was entirely unexpected.In the relation which it has pleased God that 1 should stand to you, the assurances of your attachment, and your confidence would, at any time, be precious to me; for altho\u2019 I have never, as I trust, made it my object to seek the praise of men, yet it is a happy and soothing encouragement in the labor of the ministry, to gain the affection and respect of a Christian flock, and the prominence in the Diocese ofthis particular charge, gives weight to the testimony of the congregation, The difficulties and obstructions with which the Church of England has to contend in planting her institutions and providing for the immediate wants of her people in a Diocese like this, do indced present grounds for anxiety, which, if the case were not in higher hands thun those of man, might prompt usto desrair; and thie responsibilities attaching to the administration of such a Diocese are olten harassing in the extreme.Conscious, in the execution of such a task, that we are but \u2018\u2018earthen vessels,\u201d and distrustful of our own wisdom, at every step, we can only say that \u201csceing we have this ministry, as we have received mercy we faiut not,\u201d for our sufficiency is in Christ.And so long as we can conscientiously say to our Lay BretLron, tLat in the maintainence, for their indulgent judgment, and are grateful for their appreciation of our faithfulness.For whatever little time it may please God that I should \u2018abide in the flesh,\u201d to be succeeded as 1 pray, by rome ore who should more ably fill the charge, the Laity ot the Diocese at large will, I am persuaded do me the same justice in their estimate of my fidelity to their interests which has been rendered by voursclves ; and most cordially col respond to the hore and bappy anticipation, which you express, that the co-operation of the laity which we of the Episcopal order, have invited, and have used long, and, at last successful endeavors, to put in train, may Le as the experiment procceus, carried on in this as it is already in go many Colonial Dioceses, at once with full advantage to the Church, and with harmon:ous understanding between its different orders in their united work.I will only add,\u2014with reference to the ocea- sion which brought me here,\u2014that I am thank- fu] to witness the improvements in your Church and I fervently pray that the words applied by the patriarch to the solitary spot which he consecrated as having there held communion with the Almighty, may, in their best sense be verified to your experience within these walls: \u2014 «'[\u2019his is none other than the hovse of God, and this is the gate of heaven.\u201d Besides being very much beautified in appearance, the Church is further improved by a considerable enlargement of the gallery, an improvement which has long been needed, and which will give great satisfaction to those who are in want of sittings.It seemed to us that the enlargement of the gallery has somewhat weakened the effect of the music.< \u2018l'he next improvement our Episcopal friends should make in their Church should be to supply a more powerful organ.The collections made on the occasion, amounted to upwards of fifty-one dollars, Evzcrion Items, Mr.Brown wes elected for Toronto by 150 majority.Over 5,000 votes were polled.Mr.Lemieux has Leen elected for Levi by

the Hamilton Spectator that a Mr.Knapp who fills the Responsible office of Registrar of the County of Kew, N.E.recently made himself exceedingly busy on the Grit side, in tle election at West Middlesex, so much so as to excite suspicion that all was not right with his business.Suspicion increased till at last it appears ncarly certain that monstrous frauds involving property to the amount of forty or fifty thousand dollars, have been contracted through the means of false mortgages made by the Registrar himself, pretending to bind property to which he had no title, or which was already encumbered to its tull value.lis sureties have found, upon examination that he has for a year or two practised irregularities of the worst kind.The Government have taken the affair in hand, and have authorised a careful investigation.Mr.Knapp has absconded.Tue Assconping Bak Terrier.It is generally knowu that on Thursday night last, the Assistant Teller of the Bank of Moutreal in Hamilton,

EcLirsz or THE SUN.There will be a total eclipse of the sun on the Gth inst, invisible in these northern latitudes, and only visible in the United States in their extreme Southern points.In South America it will be central.English astronomers, aided by Government, are goue to those parts to observe it.\u201cThoughts are winged,\u201d and so are words now-a-days, for, as will be seen in another column, we have had several dispatches from England by the Atlautic Cable.during the past week.and already we begin to feel ourselves much nearer home.Soon the communications will become so frequent as to make us forget that there is such a thing as an ocean between us and the mother country.What a happy omen it is, that the first messages, after the con- {banking accommodation, ial Stock required, from one million of | dellars to four hundred thousand dollars.Of this latter amount, one half ($200,000) must be subscribed, and one quarter, ($100,000) paid previous to commencing banking operations.Of the subscribed stock, at least ten per cent (820,000) must be paid, in order to organize and chosc Directors under the charter.\u2018The charter, as amended, brings it within the means of the people of the Townships, if so disposed to put the bank into operation, by united effort on their part.That great necessity exists for a local bank, to be managed by Directors and Ofiicers resident in, and feeling interested in the prosperity of this section of Canada, no onc at all acquainted with the dit- ficulties cve y business man has had to contend against, will for a moment doubt.The prevalent idea among many is, that Banks are only intended to benefit the Mercantile classes of the community, and that Farmers and Mechanics are mostly excluded from the benefits of such Institutions, hence they feel that however ad- vantagcous it might be to obtain discounts, to avoid sacrificing their Stock, Grain or Manufactured articles, they arc bebarred the privilege of obtaining bank accommodation.A conscquent want of interest in, or anxiety for the establishment of a local bank is but too apparent.The course adopted by.the City Banks both at the parent Institutions and their Agencies, has doubtless tended to foster such views; but 1t cannot be doubted, that when discounts arc confined to local paper, and no City discounts allowed by the Board of Dircctors, all classes amongst us will their have an opportunity of availing themscives to a moderate exient of I for legitimate business purposes, whether Mercantile, Mechanical or Agricultural.We are firmly of opinion that the Eastern Townships\u2019 Bank 1f established under the present favorable charter, will, under proper management, afford toall parts of the Eastern\u2019 ownships, suitable accommodation ; sufficient to materially advance not only the prosperity of individuals, but the general good of the whole community.It is to be borne in mind that hith- rto, during any pressure in the money market, discounts from the City Banks have been principally confined to their City customers.The monev has becn consequently withdrawn from the country parts to accommodate those in the cities, to our manifest disadvantage and inconvenience, tending to the serious detriment of the whole community, and the checking of enterprise in every department of industry.In the present position of affairs in the the Townships, it is useless to disguise the fact that it will require a strong, cnerget- ic, and united effort, by all classes of our community, to carry into successful operation the Eastern Townships\u2019 Bank.'Fhis£à earnestly looked for, and the efforts of ry well wisher, for the prosperity of oÙr section of country, respectfully solicited.The shares of the Basiern Townships\u2019 Bank are only $50 each, payable in such proportions, and at such periods as the Directors chosen by the Stockholders, may from time to time determine.Therc arc but few Farmers and Mechanics, who cannot afford to subscribe for and pay at least one or more shares, and itis to these parties we would more particularly address ourselves and urge their taking hold of the enterprize.Those who are engaged in trading pursuits have already suffered too much from the want of banking facilities to render it necessary for us to address them.Experience has long ere this taught them sufficient to induce them to do all they can to forward the meusure.On their cfforts we confidently rely.Ît is proposed to hold a Meeting at the Magog House on Wednesday the 15th Sept.next, at 1 P.M, to consider the propriety of organizing the Bank, and of opening Stock books for subscriptions.In order that all parts of the Townships may he represented, it is requested that Mect- ings be called in each Municipality, and at such Meetings measures be adopted to secure a full attendance at the Meeting at this place.For the purpose of securing a full attendance at the General Meeting, and of enlisting the sympathy of parties in all sections of the townships this circular will be sent to the officers of the local Councils, who are requested to interest themselves in getting up the meetings in their various localities, and of endeavoring to procure the attendance of as many as possible at the meeting to be held at this place on the day above mentioned.:

discouraged from the mines with unfavorable accounts, and hundreds who rushed hither from California prematurely and against the advice of every truthful newspaper correspondent, have gone back with

Williams, whose heroic defense of Kars, some years ago, filled the world with admiration, has returned to his native soil, anrd,as will be seen by the following, was received very enthusiastically.HALIFAX, Aug.25.General Williams.the hero of Kars, accompanied by the Mayor in à triumphal car representing a fort, drawn by young Nova Scotians, followed by Volunteer Artilliry and Engine Companies, various national and other societies, and au immense number of citizens, with military and naval bands, was escorted through the principal streets to-day to the parade ground, where the greatest concourse of people ever witnessed in Ilalifax was assembled.An address of welcome was read,to which the General made a feeling and appropriate reply, during the delivery of which, the assemblage greeted many of the sentiments expressed with prolonged and hearty cheers.After the address a salute was fired and the bells rung.The processson was then re-formed, and accompanied the General to the Temperance Hall, where he held a levee, A large number of citizens availed themselves of the opportunity to pay their respects to the heroic defender of Kars.Triumphal arches were erected on which were inscribed suitable mottos.Flags were flying in every part oi the city.It was the most enthusi.stic display ever witnessed in this city.\u2018The General remains here a week to receive the hospitality of Halifax, and then proceeds to Now Brunswick.Mrrancuory Surcipge.\u2014On Friday last a most shocking spectacle presented itself to our VIew as w& were passing down the railroad track.It was that of a horribly mutilated body cut limb from limb in a most frightful manner.Upon enquiry we were informed that the deceased was a Frenchman by the name of Noel, who had been in a state of inebriation for some days previous, from the effects of which he was suffering.On the morning in question he made an attempt to drown himself in the Saint Francis.Foiled in this, and determined upon making away with himself, he watched his opportunity, and, as the ten a.m.train ap- proachea his boarding house, he jumped thro\u2019 his bed-room window, and threw himself across the track, the entire train passing over him, literally cutting him to pieces\u2014a hand lying in ore place, a leg in another, and his brains bespattered on the rails in various directions.An inquest was held, when a verdict in accordance with the facts was returned.His remains were then collected together, placed in a coffin, aud conveyed to the residence of his aged father at Kingsey.\u2014[Richmond

port at noon to-day.The line not being open on Sunday, news could not be transmitted until yesterday.The news is not of importance with the exception of the bombardment of Djedda bya British man-of-war, and the consequent hanging of 11 of the murderers of the British and French residents of that place.A project had been started in Paris for con- nectitg Europe with China by a line of telegraph.Djedda was bombarded by the British steamer Cyclops, in consequence, it is said, of the delay of the Turkish authorities in granting reparation for the recent massacre of the English Consul and others.The Cyclops shelled the city for five days, when Ismael Pacha, Turkish Commissioner, finally made his appearance in the place, and promised to arrange the matter.He subsequently executed 11'of the assassins, and sent four others to Constantinople, to be dealt with there by the Sultan.The Cyclops then took her departure, The despatch conveying tte above intelligence gives no account of the damage done to Djedda by the bombardment, nor of the immediate grievance which compelled the commander of the Cyclops to take so summary a proceeling as it was previously understood that he was to await the arrival of Ismacl Pacha before proceeding to extremities.* 1 .Arrival of the Steamship Canada, Halifax, Aug.28.The Cunard steamship Canada, Capt.Lang, from Liverpool noon of the 14h inst,

Hyg.son's Bay Company privileges, Lord Bury affirmed that a communication might be readily established between Lake Superior and the Pacific ocean, by means of a ship canal connecting the head waters of the Saskatchewan and Cg.lumbia rivers.Both rivers take their rise in the Rocky Mountains, the Columbia flowing west to the Pacitie, and the Saskatchewan run_ ning east to Lake Winnipeg, a little to the northwest of Lake Superior.With the excep\u2026 tion of a single rapid, (which might be avoided by a canal) his lordship stated that the navy.igation of the Saskatchewan offers no difficulty.With that one exception, a vessel of considerable size can be taken up to the foot of the Rocky Mountains, and at this point there is a gap in the mountairs, whieh would interpcse no great obstacle to the junction of the Columbia and Saskatchewan, whose sources are but little distance apart.Thus a direct water communication would be established with the Pj.cific.Tur RATE or Canre TrLEGrAPHING.The

the Company cannot be Jess than 20 per cent.upon the capital now inverted, even with the present cable.Others cables may, however, be laid down at a greatly reduced cost, proportionately increasing the profits of the enterprise.This is as it should he.The bold and persistent men who have embarked in such an undertaking ought to reap splen did rewards, not merely in universal and abiding renown, but in the grosser form of riches.\u2018Their success will be likely, however, to call forth come petition for the magnificent harvest,\u201d 5000 men are to be added to the corps of Royal Engineers,

but no case being made out it was not necessary for Mr.Fer- gusson to call any rebutting evidence, and he did not produce a single witness.It was clearly proved by all the witnesses that Mr, Fergus- son never made the least attempt to shoot.On a crowd demanding his gun, he held it up, the muzzle being perpendicular, and the gun never levelled at all.Thus, on examination vanish the multitude of falsehoods which have been put in circulation on this subject.\u2019 [Toronto Leader.Mr.BrowN AND THE Maire Law.\u2014The Toronto Mirror, of yesterday, states.that it is generally belicved that the excitement of the pres- | ent contest has affected Mr.Brown\u2019s vigorous intellect.The hon.gentleman, since he has affected frienaship for Irishmen, has been busily engaged hob-nobbing with onr tavern-keepers.In spite of his great advocacy of the Maine Liquor Law, he has taken at length to drinking whisky.At Richard St.Lawrence\u2019s North Park Inn, the last time Brown held his meeting on Pine Street, he drank a glass of whisky, and water amidst the cheers of the bye-stand- ers.We would advise Mr.Brown to take care.He will have more than his fair sbare of \u201cshower baths\u201d if he gets under Dr.Workman\u2019s care.\u2014 Pilot.On Wednesday evening, as the accommoda- D.O.\u2014 No.16, | INSPECTOR GENERAL'S OFFICE, Customs DEPARTMENT, Turonto, 11th June, 1858.JIS ExCELLENCY THE GoyeRNOR GENERAL IN CouNciL, having had under consideration on the 22d ultimo, the, Departmental Cireu- lar of the Customs Department, dated 29th April, 1853, by which importers of goods, iu every case, are allowed to deduct the discount actually made for cash, or that which, according to the custom of Trade is allowed for cash, has been pleased to rescind the same, and to direct that no such deductions be allowed hereafter, and that the duties be collected upon the amount of the invoice without regard to such discount.And notice is hereby given that such Order applies to goods then'in bond, as well as goods | Maco6 support formerly offorded him.end every article warranted genuine.4 Pans, Flower Pots, Stone Ware, &e., at HENRY CAMERON.Sherbrooke, 1st June, 1858.tfeS1 REMOVAL or Tn.N ù | {lebicn] Ball, | | that he has REMOVED his DRUG | STORE to the opposite side of the Square, forming Corner next to the BripGE, where he hopes to\u2019 receive the N.B.All prescriptions carefully preparec, May &th, tfe7o Doz.Flint Enamelled Milk BARRIE & WARREN'S.imported since the passing of the Order in ques- tion.By Command, R.S.M.BOUCHETTE, tf185 Commissioner of Customs.MORE THAN 500,000 BOTTLES BOLD IN TUBA NEW ENGLAND STATES In One Year.IE RESTORATIVE OF PROF.0.J.Wood, for restoring hair perfectly and per- maneatly, has never yet had a rival.Volume after volume might be given from all parts of the world and from the most intelligent, to prove that it is @ perfect Restorative ;

A well-cooked, boiled potato, is the happiest looking inanimate thing in creation.When they come to the table smoking hot, with their \u2018\u2019jackets\u2019\u2019 on, all bursting with the good iuside, it is a sight to make a dyspeptic good-naturcd, and never will fail to turn a sullen face into wreathing smiles.Then let me say a few words about cooking this vegetable, and tell the way in which I have been most successful, To boil potatoes, let them lie in cold water six hours at least, before boiling, (twelve hours for very old potatoes is not too long.) Then put them in a little water, a little salted, and the water should be kept at a moderate boil, till they are done, which should be tested with a fork ; then pour off the waterand letthem stand in the pot till dry.Great care should be taken not to let them boil a moment after they are done, as it will render them watery.An excellent plan to make old potatoes mealy is to turn them into a cloth and rapidly shake them about, or take them one at a time in a cloth and slightly press them, The larger potatoes should be put into the pot before the smaller ones that they may be equally done.1t requires from forty to fifty minutes to boil old potatoes.New ones ,will take about half that time.Genesee Farmer.REMEDY FOR THE Scours.\u2014A correspondent of the Mark Lane Express, has used acorn flour with success.Whenever he found syraptoms ol scours or diarrhea in amy of his cattle, he ordered two good handfulls of acorn flour to be mixed in a bran mash and given warm immediately, continuing it once a day until the disease disappggred.It proved a never failing cure, in his own case and that of his neighbors.A New Harvess.The New Brunswick papers give an account of a new and peculiar harness which is attracting considerable attention.The ordinary saddle is dispensed with; also, the whippletree and breeching The wagon is controlled by two friction rollers fastened at the end of the shaft bars.The shafts are held and controlled by two terrets at the hames.The horse can be detached from the carriage in a moment, by means of two spring hooks, arranged at the forward end of the trace, which is convenient at all times, and more especially in case a horse becomes frightened and runs away.To Destroy Wire Worm.\u2014Nitrate of soda, one and a lialf tuns per acre, sown in powder, will prove a remedy for this pest.Sow in damp weather, or in \u201cthe afternoon, before a heavy due is expected.When the ground is moist it will change yellow oats to a healthy green color in four days\u2019 time.Mr.Newman, who communicates the above, considers nitrate of soda, 3 FPHE Splendid new sea-going Steamers For= est City, Lewiston and Montreal, will, until further notice, run as follows : day, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, at 7 o'clock P.M,, and Central Wharf, Boston, every Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, at 7 o'clock l\u2019.M.Fare, in Cabin.®1,25 « on Deck.\u2026.\u2026.\u2026.00000.1,00 N.B.Each boat is furnished with a large number of state-rooms, for the accommodaticns of ladies and tamilies; and travellers are reminded that by taking this line, much saving of time and expense will be made, and that the inconvenience of arriving in Boston at late hours of the night will be avoided.The boats arrive in season tor passengers to take the earliest trains out of the city.The Company are not responsible for baggage to an amount exceeding $50 in value, and that personal unless notice is given and paid for at the rate of one passenger for every $500 additional value.£7 Freight taken as usual.1.BILLINGS, Agent.tfc78 C.P.ADAMS & CO.GENERAL PRODUCE COMMISSION MERCHANTS, FOR THE SALE OF Butter, Cheese, Eggs, Beans, Peas, Beef, Pork, Lard, Hams, Wool, Grain, Flour, Ashes, Seed, Dried Apples, &c.29 Commercial Street, BOSTON, (Opposite East end Faneuil Hall Market.) \u2014#_ Consignments of all kinds of produce solicited, and prompt returns guarranteed.Liberal Cash Advances made on consignments.CI C.P.ADAMS, - - - R.A.NEWELL.coo WILLIAM S.FRETCH.Importer and Manufacturer AND WHOLESALE DEALER IN TOBACCO AND CIGARS.50 IN pall ror.c85 Light!
