Well, an I said before, we two are very iutimate, and always confide to onc another our different business plans.I asked him what he tho\u2019t of Browu\u2019s company.Me hummed and hawed and did not know what to advise either way.\u2018Come,\u2019 said I, \u2018to please Brown I'll take five-and-twenty shares, no great loss if the thing docs not pay ; but miud you don\u2019t speculate in it, Hurry; \u20181 have taken twenty-five shares myself) he answered.AW hat on earth for?\u2014you havn*t yet made up your mind whether it is a good hing or not.\u2019 .A hy, you see, Brown asked me.\u2019 \u2018Fiddlesticks! Brown ought to be ashamed of himself, leading you into doubtful speculations.I'll take your shares instead of buying myself?\u2018But I dou\u2019 t like to sell; Brown will think I was rather puzzled to discover why Harry should care so much for Brown ; Lut I hit the truth at last\u2014Harry was ju love with Miss Fanny Brown.\u2018My boy,\u2019 said I, \u2018I fear this is an uphill business ; Brown is such an in- lernally purse-proud fellow, he never will think you rich enough.\u2019 \u2018Fanny has given lier promise to me.\u2019 \u2018Well larry, we'll do our best in the affair.Just step round to Brown\u2019s of- lice, say I'm too busy to come myself, tell him t8'put me down as a director, and say I'll take a hundred shares in the omnibus company.\u2019 Harry pressed my hand very hard \u201cand hurried off.\u2018Poor boy,\u201d 1 thought to myself.\u2018I trust it is not a very serious busiuess ; I know Drown will never let him lave his daughter, Iu a quarter of an hour, Harry burst with glee into my office ; Father, said he,\u2014he sometimes calls me father\u2014 \u2018Brown is so pleased; he's asked us to dine with him to-morrow, quite in a friendly way, to talk over the company.d was to be sure and tell you it was ouly a family dinner.\"We will.go by all meaus, Harry.\u2018You dear good friend !\u2019 said he,clasping my haud, \u201c] must tell you all about it.\u2019 \u2018But I'm very busy, my boy.\u201d 1 might as well have tried to stop an express train with my hauds.IL was the old story ; fresh and new to Harry us the words fell from his fluent lips.Bless the lad! he thought his love tale, his experiences, were quite novel, that mortal hud never uttered thie like before\u2014it was just as if\u2019 some one were telling me my own love story, woid for word,with the uames changed.A young man with next to nothing hud fullen deeply in love with the daughter of rich parents\u2014they two had sworn viernal fidelity.1low Harry clung to that pledge! Ile knew she would be true to him! I looked up at his face, 1 saw how hopeful and confident he was \u2014well-a~duy, years ago [ too lind heen very hopeful, very confident lu\u2019 \u201cWhy, futher) he exclaimed, weak your eyes are.\u2019 *Lliey ave not so young as they were, Harry,\u201d 1 replied, glad of the excuse; *L don\u2019t think these glasses quite suit tie.So, my boy, you haven't suid anything to Brown yetf ?\u201cWhy, I haven't had a good opportunity, but perhaps to-morrow wight he answered, hesitatingly, lt was agr read that larry should eall for me at my little bachelor box at Bays- Water, and that we should go together to Browu's.Île came at the appointed moment ; the fellow never looked hand- gomer in his life; we did nol speak mucl as as we drove along.I recollect thinking that Brown ought to be proud of such a son-in-law.1 know that I was very nervous when thow | we arrived at Brown's, aud I fancy Harry was also, There was a look of groater display about the house than a \u2018family dinner\u2019 required, for although Brown is as rich as Cræsus, he is an essentially mean man, and never makes a display unless it is advantageous to do so, Mrs Brown was in the drawiug-room and received us with n cold stateliness.Her dress was a maguificent triumph of cost over taste, and ler manaer told me in & moment that she had never intended ns to be fuvited.Presently in came Brown and his daughter.Brown was very cordiul in his manuer, only I could sco he did not mean it; lie was profusely polite to Harry, engaging him in eager conversation, which prevented Harry from than saying \u2018Llow do you do to Fuuny,who sat some way upurt, She really is a very pretty girl, à chiar.ming figure, dark hair, dark pensi: ayes, a ose delicately retrousse\u2014I wisi I could describe fuces; 1 can\u2019t, I can ouly say it was à face that went to your heart and stopped there\u2014the red roses twined in that dark hair, and the misty white dress, it was a pretty sight, even to my eyes\u2014it must have driven Harry \u2018half wild to have to liste; to this and that \u2018spee.\u2019 iustead of talking to Ler.\u2014 I endeavored to rescue Lim, but Mrs Brown kept me engaged iu conversp- tion, Presontly, bang! baug! Lang! at the house door.In & moment Mrs Browu\u2019s stately aspect forsook her, she grew very uervous, and Brown fidgeted about the room in an auxious mauner.- The Honorable Mrs and Mr Denby were an- pounced, They appeared to be mother and son, and were evidently people of great account, Mr and Mrs Brown being so wonderfully deferential ig their greeting.1 could sce Mr Denby's well-bred lip curl beneath the overwhelming at- teutions of Mrs Brown ; as tor Drown himself, his head was totally lost\u2014he introduced us ppder wrong names, talked wildly and at vaudonz about the weather, und at last subsided into hope- lesy silence on à spider chair, Mrs Denby's easy manner lulled the assiduities of Mrs Broyn, and they sat confidentially talking on a sofa, whence the murmur of a conversation fell on my ears which was studded with rich words\u2014\u2018Lord, Lady, Furl, Countoss, Duke, Duchess, Court, Queen, feathers, traivs, diamonds, carriages, Morning Post.\u201d As for that fellow Denby I took a dislike to the man at once; there was a superciliousness about him that groat- ly annoyed me.: Dinuer was aunouuced; Brown's head was off agein.To my astooish- ment 1 was thrust half-way tow ards the door with Mrs Leubg on my arm; Harry in the scramble g got hold of Fanny; when a false start was declared, the order of the compauy was changed, aud Fanny was assigned to Denby.\u201cTreat you quite in à friendly way\u201d said Brown, pompously, addressing: the company generally.J was out of patience to hear the: man talk such nonsense.It was a mest elaboraie dinner; the table was arranged with ware of the Copeland, or Minton order, charming fancies, delicately modeled, crowned with flower and fruit super-structures.\u2018Quit in a friendly way, ma'am,\u2019 said Mr Brown, addressing Mrs Denby specially.I could sce the smile which Mrs Deuby took caro to hide from her host; she was evidently a woman of great tact; in a few \u2018minutes Brown was talking to her quite at his case about the Stock Exchange.Harry sat between Mis Deuby and myself, she contrived to draw him into conversation\u2014poor boy! 1 could sce he was ill at case ; the center ornament of the table completely shut\u2019 him out from Fanny, who sat opposite with Denby.1 declare T was quite augry at the way that fellow Denby kept on talking to l'anny ; I could sce he completely bored her.1 tried to divert his conversation to myself.TI \u2018spoke to him upon every subject 1 could think of but he only vouchsafed polite monosyllables to me, and still kept on conversing with Fanuy, and then Mrs Brown attacked me on the flank and forced me to listen to her.\u2018Did I know Lord This That?a very haudsome mnu ! and Lady The Other, such a beautiful woman! didu*t I think so?aud then her cousin the Couutess of \u201c\u2018What's-her-name.\u2019 I told Mrs Brown I was not acqunin- ted with auy of these people, hut nothing could step her conversation about lushionable folks; it was positively as if the whole of Burke\u2019s Peerage were fermenting in her head, every other word she uttered was a title, and then she would appeal on doubtful points to Mrs Denby, and to my surprise Brown himself chimed into the couversation and talked vory glibly of high people.Why, I could recollect the time when he sucered at aristocracies and great folks, and wanted to make short work of the House of Lords.All this time Brown had been gradually getting quite at his case.1 take it that dinner is n great democrat and leveler of distinction ;a participation iu the same entree is a declaration of that humanity which belongs alike to great dukes nud insignificant commoners.\u2014 Diuner, at last, had this cffeet upon Brown ; he became quite at home with Deuby, culling him \u2018My boy *.Old fellow l tousting'him as future chairman of the Steam Omnibus ° compauy.1 could seo that Denby winced ufider all STANSTEAD, L c.THURSDAY, JANUARY 12, 1865 this, but he was just us polite as his!

\u2018Dear Iarry,\u2014Papa and mamma have consented to onr marriage; come this evenin isver yours, Pansy Brow =» Harry declared it was l'anuy's writing; for the moment I almost thought it must be rome wretched boax.Harry did go to the Browus iu the evening} Ar aud Meo though cold, greed to, 1 can safely aflirm I was never more puzzled in my life than to discover the reason why the Browns had given their consent.l apologized to Brown for the warmth of my language; he was very polite, but cold, so was Mrs Brown; their mauner was just the same to Harry, aud evidently wished us both at the bottom of the sea.llarry, generous- like, would have it that my conversation with Brown, or perhaps a second reading of the letter, had touched their hearts; but this solution was not satisfactory to me.We went the day before the wedding to dine at Brown's with the lawyer.Harry was to sleep at my cottage that night, and we left Browu\u2019s house together.Ile was in excellent spitits, so was I too; Lut happiness at my time of life always make me rather sedate and meditative, I observed every now and then that Harry broke into a hearty laugh, which rather jarred upon my feelings.© \u201cWhat's the joke, niy boy?I inquired at last.\u2018Uve found out why the Browns gave in,\u201d he replied.*Out with it Harry,\u2019 said I impatient- Heewn wors very polite, Lut the marriage was

at the Browns\u2019 there was a tre- niendous disutrbance ; they tried every method to make Fauny give me up\u2014 coaxing, persuading, threatening.Mrs Doubly, too, was brought up to the attack, and very skillfully did she allude to the eileet Fanny's youth aud beauty would make in the great world, and all the court and honor that would be paid her.One morning Mrs Browu discov- cred that I had written several lettors to l'\u2019anny ; these she confiscated, and carefully placed under lock avd key in her own particular and sacred desk.\u2019 1 felt indignat at this; but Harry, to my great surprise, only laughed.\u201cIhe eveuing of that day,\u2019 he continued, \u2018Fanny was by herself in the Lack drawing-room, when her father suddenly eutered with the packet of letters in his hand, which he requested her to return {o me herself, aud also to write a note saying that our aflair had come to an end.Ianny of course expostulated and then Mr Brown said that he had just glanced at one or two of the letters as hie came down from Mrs Brown's roomy and that he had never read such precivus stufl)\u2019 1 declared.that Brown had no right to read the letters.\u2018I think perhaps he had,\u2019 said Harry bursting into a positive fit of laughter.\u201cHe declared they were precious stuff, recollect that\u2014lovp iu a cotlage, and that sort of folly.Presently he took up another letter, and after fumbling at it with his glasses, he exclaimed in a state of great indignation, \u2018Why, Fan- us uy, this\u2018is too bad! scandalous ! the fellow positively asks you to run away !\u2019 \u2018Harry,\u2019 said I seriously, \u2018you never told me about this running-off scheme \u2014you \u2018must kuow that I don°t apprové of such things.\u2019 \u2018Fanny would never bave agreed,\u2019 he replied, \u201cThen I am surprised that you should have written such a letter.\u2019 \u2018Fanny was surprised too, I can assure you ; she snatched the letter.from Tier father's band aud took it to the Jight of the window,\u2019 , \u2018Whose is this letter, papa?she ex: claimed.\u2018It's mot Harry\" 8 handwriting! \u2018Dou\u2019 t tell me!\u2019 said Mr Brown au grily, \u201cWhy papa! it can\u2019t be ; yes, yes, it is, though ; here\u2019s the date\u2019; why, it mnst be a letter of yours to\u2018mamma.\u2019 \u2018The fact is,\u201d continued Harry, : who was almost choked with laugh & Mr Brown had been all the while criticising his own love letters, which Mrs Brown had in the confusion of the moment and darkness of the room taken: from her desk instead of mine.\u2019 o \u2018Fanny says, she was at first somewhat puzzled by the\u2019 writing, her father's hand Laving so greatly changed since he wrote those letters, when he was quite 8 young man.\u2019 .Harry weut on to say that Brown | was overwhelmed with \u201castonishment, and could not be brought for a long time to believe that he bad ever wrilten the\u2019letters,declari ing,notwithstandiugthe evidence of the writing, that Le never could have been such a fool.Mrs Brown was equally astonished; she managed with some difficulty to call to mind that many years previously she had sorted out seme,old letters, burning some and, akeoping others, It¥wus evident she liad preserved Mr Brown's carly letters, though she had quite forgotten having done so.It gradually \u2018transpired that Mr and : iMrs Brown\u2019s early attachment had been most imprudent in a worldly point of.view\u2014thgt.they had absolutely married without \u2018a penny, and had to\u2019 be supported by re lations for some years.\u201d This sudden resurrection of long-buried feelings and sentiments had its effect on Mrs Brown, in addition to that, the old arguments which had been used-agalust Faouoy were no longer available ; \u2018and at last, after many entreaties, Mr and Mrs Brown reluctantly gave up their cherished plan of forming a grand alliance for thoir daughter, Harry and Tupny were married thé, next day.Mrs Brown wept immense-| ly; ever rbody said it was so natural, a mother losing her daughter.Mr Brown declared \u2018it was the happiest day of bis life,\u2019 but he looked most\u2019 grievonsly \u2018solemn; there would 'be no coronet for Fanny, and no reflected honor for himself.I prayed very earnestly for the happiness of both, and I, was very: thankful.thas her son-had married the woman

stabled and fed, himself and host adjourned to the house, where after do- ing-ample justice to the well spread table of Vermout fare, he sat down to en-: joy lis pipe, and an eveving\u2019s

you, and such of your renders as may feel interested in twining to account, for our local benefit, epportunities of the kind now offered, may appear to you of importance enough, at tbe present time, to warrant your according the space necessary for publishing this communication in your columns, It would have been forwarded to you earlier, but for sickuess by which I have been laid up ever since I received the letter from Mr, Simmonds, about tke latter part of November.~ 1 may premise that this gentleman was Deputy Buperintendent of the Colonial portion of the London International Exhibition of 1862, and that while he and his superior officer, the eminent botanist, Dr.Lindley, exerted themselves most actively and impartially, in commending to the attention of the public, the wonderful display of natural resources presented by nearly all the Colonies of Britain on that great occasion, nothing could exceed the kind and continuons concern they manifested during the whole of my attendance in London, in endeavoring to bring under notice the adrantagesand facilities of the Eustern Townships of Lower Canada, They thoughtfully omitted no opportunity of introducing me favorably in every quarter whenever they thought a knowledge of this interesting und thiiving spot (is they were pleased to style our townships) of Her Majesty's Colonial dominions, could be usefully to us, brought under nctice,\u2014insis- ting that, while such extensive and long cou- tinued official and other recommendations had been influentially exercised in the Brit- i-h Isles in favor of Canada West, and the United States of America, the public had been almost kept in the dark va regards the claims of the older settled territory in Canada East.They having control of the English Gardener's Chronicle and Agriculturel Magazine, and uecess to other largely circus luted periodicals in Londen snd elsewhere, much useful and commendatory information respecting the Eustern Townships was pub-

coromagd of Col.De Salaberry and Judge Maguire, who succesded in arresting two of the.ringleaders, and returned to town, after aiding the proper officer in enforcing the draft.Warrants are out for several others.All this goes to show that there is something.-Fadically wrong in our Militia system.The draft was quietly enforced throughout the itera Towhiships where the people are a 3 ding\u2019 population, as a general rule, but we have reason to believe that the Militia law, in some of its features, is highly unsatisfactory to the people here, as well as in the French distrist.The drafting of the ser- +, vies.militia occurred at an unfortunate time, when the Government were sending out volunteers to the frontiers, and it really had the appearance of drafting an army for active service.At any rate, under this impression draft kad been for actual service.= The Raiders.Judge Smith gavea decision en Saturday in regard to his right to try the case of ihe raiders, in which he learnedly showed that he had a right, and that his warrant was legal and correct, thus reversing the decision of Judge Coursol, The counsel for the defence immediately made another ob- Jection, which they argued at great lengib.~Fliey, contended that the 24th Victoria dees the territories, \u2018The other side very properly treated this as a mere quibble, as there could be no doubt that the offences were committed within the political or treaty making jurisdiction of the United States.Judge Smith took the objection en delibere until Tuesday.\u2014\u2014 KP The City Council of Montreal

considerable attention was drawn the time of the International Exhibition of 1862, should not be wholly unrepresented on a correanon- ding occasien in 1805.Heping that your part of our great Canada Colony continues to flourish, that you are well, and that I shall in due couse receive a faverabla reply to this letter, I remain, Yours truly, P.L.SIMMONDS, Colonial Superintendent, Te Prof.H.H.Miles, Lennoxuville, C.E.In reply to this letter 1 have stated thatl shall interest myself in the object as early and as much as may lie in my power, and that asa-firet step I shall apply te some of our leading public men, and through the columns of our local press, to any others that nay be likely to concern themselves in the matter.Now, Mr.Lditor, 1 trust that you and some of your readers may be induced to concur in the desirableness of our looking upa few of our products and forwarding them to the care of this gentleman to be exhibited at the forthcoming Dublin Exhibition.According to the printed documents ec- companying the letter of Mr.Simmonds,the Exhibition is 10 be formally opened about May 10th, 1865, in the extensive buildings and gardens of the Dublin Exhibition Paluce and Winter Garden Company, all of whieh have been rented for the occasion by the Exhibition Commiitter, which consists of about sixty noblemen and gentlemen distinguished for their zealous patronuge of the Arts and Sciences, Her Majesty's Government, recognizing the national importance of the undertaking, have notified it to Foreign States,through the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs.\u2014 Special Committees have Leen formed in most of the principal continental cities.The Secretary of State for the Colonies has alse addressed letters to the authorities in most of the British Colonies, calling upon them to facilitate the exhibition of Colonial produce and manufactures.The Society of Arts in Londen, to which the Exhibitions of 1851 and 1862 were emi- rently indebted for their promotion, are giving every assistance in their power to this undertaking and have subscribed the use of their House as the chief London office, In fact every means are being taken to render this Exhibition attractive and successful, the Committee having invited all that sre interested in the various departments of Art and Iudustry to support their efforts by a timely and cordial co-opertion.The Exhibition iv to continue open from May to the end of October.The general plan for the division of the Exhibition will be similar to that adopted at the suggestion of His Royal Highness Prince Albert for the Exhibition of 1851\u2014namely, Raw Aa.terials (to include Mining, Quarrying, Metallurgical and Mineral products, with sub.dances used as food, whether animal or veg- | etable,) Machinery, Toxtile Fabrics, Metal.lie, Vitreous and Ceramic Manufactures, Miscellaneous Manufactures, Fine Arts.\u2014 Medals sud certificates of merit will be awarded for objects in all departments except that of fine Arts, : Articles from abroad will be transmitted unopened snd free of duty to the Exhibition building under arrangements which need not ut present be particularly specified.Considering how fow and small the opportunities are which are open to ourselves to givean impulse to emigration from theBritisk Isles, to the Eastern Townships, und to show toour fellow subjects in Great Britain our large natural resources, our facilities for mining, manufactures, aud agriculture, the comparative easy access to comfortable homes in a thiving section of country, where the settled state of things as regards law and order, Municipal and Political privileges, Religion and Euncation, would, if only they could be made generally known, undoubtedly attract hundreds, perhaps thousands, of people with more or less capital, to cast in their lot with ours; I am persuaded, Mr.Editor, that we really ought, in the interes of the Tuwnships, to exert ourselves in turning to account such an occasion as the one now pre- seated, I cannot take upon myself to pronounce upon the precise manner in which our effort should be shaped, so as best to secure the ends in view.But amongst the steps which occur to me as judicious, I may presume to offer for consideration the following suggestions, .1 observed, when in attendance upon the Exhibition of 1862, that our specimens of Indian Corn in the ear, oats, barleys, wheat, &e., hops, flax, maple sugar,, small (as well us large) specimens of our 60 or 70 kinds of slate, copper ores and gold, attracted very great notice ;\u2014on days when the Exhibition was visited by from 50 to 60,000 people, of whom at leact one third would pass through the Canadian Court, innumerable questions were asked by visitors seeking special infor- maiion about our country,\u2014questions upon which the printed and official docwmente, at the disposal of our commissioners, furnished very inadequate replies, In fact most of the prospectuses and printed papers, which were iargely distributed, had reference to other parts of Canada, and rot to the Eastern Section in which our l'ownships are situated ; und although some steps were taken to supply this defect at private coût, still it was impossible te remedy it effectuslly, so that 1 could not Lut feel that the opportumities of a great occasion were in some measure unnecessarily lost through circumstances then past coutrol.Some idea may be formed of the importance attached by other Colonists to the distribution of particular local infor mation of their respective countries as fields for emigration, when J mention that ! learned on good authority, (in fact from the parties themselves,) that the Australian Colonists alone expended about £10,000 sterling in printing and circulating threughout Britain, by mail, various details relative to their progress, natural reseurces, &c.; and as one result, they obtained whole shiploads of enterprising emigrants, including eligible persons with families possessing capitals to various amounts from a few hundreds up to £20, 000 or more.Admiiting some special reasons why individuale here and there are induced to embark for Australia in preference to Canada, there is good cause for beliving that a far less profuse expenditure would, under judicious arrangements supply inducements from attractive and reliable infcrma- tion leading many who ge to Australia to prefer Canada.1 should therefore suggest the desirable- uess of forwarding, along with a moderate supply of specimens of the kinds enumera- tod above, abundance of local information about the Townships, ina form expressly adapted for distribution among the tens of thousands who will surely visit the Dublin Exhibition,and of whom many will undoubtedly seek to know particulars about our country, if it should be brought under their notice by the sight of only a few of our chief products, A good many of the whole or of parts of the Eustern Townships, a few photographic pictures of scenery and homesteads, @ couple of copies of elch of the Township Newspapers, short printed statements about our now numerous Copper Mines, (us we have become accustomed to designate the places where successiu! explorations have disclosed large deposits of ore,) and any other imteiligible mean of furnishing, at a glance, reliable accounts of our section of country, its products and resources, would all prove of service.As regards the quantities aud ultimate appropriation of the products it might be deemed advisable to forward, wiser and wore experienced minds may perhaps suggest, more us>fully than I can, what is proper to be done.But so far as my own judg- went enables me to express an opinion, 1 should say the following quantities would amply suftice for the occasion, to be sold at or before the close of the exhibition, viz: \u2014 about half a bushel of well selected Indian Corn in the ear, tie same of each of the kinde of cox reer grains, one or two bundles of flax of a few pounds each, a packet of the best hops weighing from 20 to 25 lbs, two or three samples of well made sugar, n few slates of several sizes, rough dressed specimens of copper ore, from different localities, which need not exceed 20 or 30 Ibs.each in weight, together with a few smaller lumps, one or two moderate sized slubs of soapstone and if possible, one or two good samples of gold.In the aggregate, the specimens referred to, need not exceed from à 1-2 to 2 tons in weight.1 have purposely omitted to specify woods in this place, because, in order to answer the purpose effectually, the display ought to include samples of the more valuable kinds of timber, of form: and size 20 indicate their utility for commerciul purposes.At the same time, sets of email samples of woods, merely adapted for taking a plece in cabinet collections, would be interesting to many, and at the close of the Exhibition, would surely command cempara- tively bigh prices when sold, siace there is commonly much eompetition for the purchase of such things for this sole object.\u2014 For my owa part,l entertsin no doubt whatever, but that all the specimens we might send could be disposed of at prices which would sufticiently reimburse us for sll outlay in procuring and forwarding them.Mr.Simmonds, to whom the public in England is indebted for preparing catalogues and for arrenging and otherwise nssisting in getting up important sections of that wou- derful and well known collection displayed in the South Kensington Museum, would 1 feel sure, be plensed to set forth our Township contribution to the Dublin Exhibition in an attractive and appropriate manner; nor do l eutertain any doubt but that he would, usefully to us, and in other respects to our satisfaction, execute all our reasonable wishes, 1 believe also, that he would give ull necessary attention to our interests gratuitously, for at the Exhibition of 1862, in addition to his duties as Deputy Buperin- tendent of the Colonies, he kindly and voluntarily took charge of several of the minor sets of contributions from smaller and more remote localities, whieh would otherwise have had no personal representation what ever, and for which in some instances medals and honorary mentions were awarded, 1 ought to apologize for the length of this communication ; yet 1do not well see how it could be curtailed in justice to the subject in view.Nor ean I close without asking you, and through you your readers, who may take an interest in such matters, what shall we do in regard te this, as 1 believe, important opportunity?If it were thought that steps ought to be taken, what preliminary measures ure required in order so put the thine] Into successful operation ?It has to bé Borne in mind that whatever we may underalke in this behalf, must be completed by an enily date in Murch, since al! contributions to this Exhibition must be at their destinations by the fist week of Avril, and none can be received after thy 15th of that month.Pessi- bly some persons may suggest other of our products in addition RQ those named, and to include specimens of sume of our local manufactures.1 believe we should find our account in forwarding anything whatever that can usefully illustrate the products, capubili- ties or progress of our country, At any rate, Mr, lditor, I have stated all that ocours to mekto be of utility in the affair before us, excepting perhaps, an undeniable fact with tbe mention of which 1 shall leave the subject in your hands and that of your readers,heartilÿ commending the whole to your particular attention.\u2018The experience of the last twenty years or more, show us who-dwell in the Eustern Townships, as con- ciusively as can be, that we may not look to ourown Canadian Government, nor to any external agency, official or non-official, for that help and countenance which are most needed for promoting emigration, and the introduction of eapital and labor from the Old County into these parts of Canada; in- Huence and other active causes have been steadily made to operate against us.So that if anything can be done we must see to it for ourselves, and we shall surely attain to results the more considerable, the more con- Mrs Hiram Davis 4th, Nath Batchelder 5th.WHITER FLANNEL, Wid L Little 1st, J 8 Ga: 2d, Mrs T Shurtlef 3d, LH Harvey 41h, 13 D

spare hour a few days since, 1 devoted it to a visit to St.Francis College, being present at the opening exercise and remaining the most part of the forenoon.It is really ggatifying that I can mention ko careful Rion to Scripture reading and prayer, with which to commence the duties of the day.1 contrasted it with the careless way in which many of our District schools are opened.Are religious exercises 80 poor a privilege\u2014I will not say duty\u2014ns that it must be confined to higher places of instruction alone ?It should not be, After this exercise I attended an oral review of the first College class in Greek composition, before Principal Graham.It is due to this cass and its instructor to say, that great thoroughness was shown in the principles of Grammar, \u2018The most interesting features of the exercise were the free and easy manner in which English sentences were translated into Greek, and also the readiness with which sentences given in English were translated dud written in Greek letter and accent upon the blackboard.The difficulty of this ia well known; old professors not trained to the exercise, en introducing: it have confessed themselves, for the suke of safe accuracy, to write the sentences out £irst, before going to class, A full course in Greek continued as the class has begun must secure the most thorough acquaintance with the language.And here I would say, hard study and correct deportment seem: to have characterized the students generally during the term just closed.Nor would I say that this term, in this respect, differs from preceding ones.Certainly this should commend the Institution to 1he confidence and esteom of its patrons; and, while it i's the best com- weudation the College can receive, that its clisses are thoroughly trained, is it not likewise the most honorable form in which it cat solicit the patronage of those who would szcure a good education for their children, in circumstances of safety to their moral character?There may be a futwre full of honor for this our College.Its beginning has been but little more discouraging than was that of Yale College which now sends out its clasces numbering from 100 to 150, and many other institutions alike eminent.But if such a fiture is seeured it can only be, by a preserved confidence, and a more liberal support.\u2018The falling off of the Educational Grant should only remind all that greater effort is called for and expected from the people of the Townships.Itis your \u20acol- lege, you cannot well let it want.The endowment ofa prefessorship,is a possibility, and should be so regarded, and the ED Newton Ist,L Kilborn 2d,J S Gage 2d obligation felt to secure this as early ne possible, Here, slone, is the security of pore manency to any institution ef this character ; and [ can hardly understand why men should sbrink from such a work, so honorable and valusble, Are not funds more wisely ap- priated when given to such uses than when expended for political purposes?Yet the latter is liberally done, 100 liberally we think, 10 be consistent with a wise treatment of our \u2018young institntions which should be first in our affections aud suppert.\u2018There can be \u2018wo greater honorj than to be found among the founders of a school of liberal learning.Saying this, brings to our remembrance | the labors of the late lamented Prince Consort, who did so much for the cause of learning, and hereby placed bis name among the highest benefactors of his nation.It is net just that we should forget his example.1 believe St.Francis College, by securing the generous support such an Institution j'astly\u2014nay is bound to expest, and ask from the people of these Townships, may become one of the most honored schools of learing in Canada.\u2014Cor.Sh.Gazette, v ery absurd story telegraphed by the Wash.i ngton Correspondent of the World, the \\ thole of which is doubtless as true as that ] vart of it which informs us that the British ( 3overnment has been lately quistly accumu- } ating troops in Canada.The basis of the \u2018#hgle story is about two months old; the original ides of the recognition of the South in March, for the reason given having been gle?ned from an arguentive article in the \u201cJr.dex,\u201d the Confederate organ in London.In Montreal it received the little addition of tre ops to our garrisons determined upon,but of course not yet accomplished.In Washington the Montreal story is a little modified, and instead of her Majesty being about ts send troops\u2014\u201cquietly,\u201d or otherwise\u2014 she is reported io have been engaged fer some time in quietly accumulating them here.\u2014âlon.Herald, LEGAL OPINION WITH RESPECT TO THE RalDERS.\u2014s\\mong the numerous arts employed to obtain a judgment reaffirming the decision in this case, one has been the industrious circulation of a story that Mr.Black's opinion on the point raised before Mr.Cour- so] was favorable to the decision which that gentlensan pronouncad upon it.We are in à posit ion lo say something on this head,and we affire, on the highest and best authority, not orsly that Mr.Black has expressed no opinion favorable to the decision of Mr.Cou rsol ; but that he has not hesitated Lo exp ress an opinion that the judgment was entirely erroneous.\u2014 Herald.EEE The Passport System Is creating a good deal of feeling on the great Lines of travel, where it is enforced, ~ Hundred's of passengers on the railways have been turned back because they had not the necessary documents.The effects of it are most severoly felt by the railroads, The Michigan Central has discontinued all its trains but one.British subjects may obtain passports from \u201che proper Provincial authorities, which will be vised by the vice-consul at the point of crossing the boundary.A- werican citizens 1nust have passports from the American consul, to be likewise vised by the vice-consuls.These latter officers are not authorized to issue passports, but can give permits to persons knows to them who wish to visit the States.The whole system is an unmitigated nuisance, which hus been found entirely inoperative in Europe of pre- vonting the transit of political refugees and suspects, the very object it is instituted for by Mr.Seward.It will fleece a few dollars from persons who travel, and create a vast amount of vexation and anneyance to people who are obliged to do business between the two countries.A military force is to be stationed at Rouse\u2019s Point and Mooer\u2019s Junction fo enforce the passport order.[3 His Excellency the Governor General has received a despatch from the Right Hon.E.Cardwell, M.P., Secretary of State, approving in general terms of the Confederation scheme adopted at Quebec with the exception of two provisions, to which attention is called in the following words : \u201cThe first of these ia the provision contained in the 44th resolution, with respect to the exercise of the prerogativelof pardor, lt appears to Her Majesty's Government that this duty belongs to the representative of the Sovereign, and could not with propriety be devolved upon the Lieutenant Governors, who will, under the present scheme, be appointed not directly by the Crown but by the central government, of the united provinces, 'Lhe second point which Her Majesty's Government desire should be reconsidered is the Constitution of the Legislative Council.They appreciate the considerations which have influenced the Conference in determining the mode in which this bedy so important to the consti- tutien of the Legislature should be composed.But it appears to them to require further consideration whether if the members be appointed for life and their number Le fixed.there will Le any sufficieut means cf restoring harmony between the Legislative Council and the popular assembly, if it shall ever unfortunately happen that a decided difference of opinion shall arise between them.\u201d The despatch also suggests the sending of & deputation from the Provinces to England to aid in preparing the bill to be laid before Parliament there.It may well be supposed that the elective system for the Legislative Council would be recommended by the Home government from the hint given above, [or the power to add to tho numbers of that body by appoint.ment at the will and pleasure of Her Majes- (y'a representative.This has always been found a dangerous power in the hands of a Governor General.The remedy, to the minds of Canadians, who have tried the plan successfully, ruggests itself in the elective system, which may yet be adopted if backed by the powerful influence of the Imperial Government.ONE Foor Makes Many.\u2014Thers is a, Ar \u2018er Potty thieviog is the
