Tilley and Tupper, in the matter of the proposed survey. We clip trom the Quebee Mercury :-— “Tt is understood that Messrs. Tupper and Tilley, the representatives, respectfully, of the go- vernment of Nova Seotia and New Brunswick, propose te abandon so much of the plans per- taining to the Intereolonial Railway survey as relates to the empleyment of a second engineer. They coneur in the appointment of Mr. Santord Fleming, who will therefore be entrusted with | the entire responsibility of the survey on the part ot the provinces; his only associate being the en- gineer appointed by the Imperial authorities. The survey will be proceeded with immediately, and the arrangements contemplated by Mr. Flem- ing are such as will ensure its completion within | a comparatively brief period.” The object of the survey, it is stated, is to find an interior raute | irom Riviere da Loup, which Majer Robinson considered impracticable. The Fredericton Head Quarters truly says that the intormation afforded is “ vague and unsatis- factory.” From what we ean gather ourselves, from Canadian private sources, that under pre- sent circumstances it is next te impossible to look for any possible good to come from the recent delegation. It is true there are a large class in Canada anxious for the construction of the road ; but frow the critical position of the Government it is alinost powerless. The Head Quarters goes on to Bay i— “The Canadian Government hare virtually rejected the offer and terns of the Duke of New- castle, and the whole affair, aa we understand it, ax between the Provinces and the British Govern. ment, is broken off. We should think it is not likely that the Imperial Government will appoint an Engineer, when they must keow that the Ca- nadian Government have na serious intention to proceed with the schon; that, in faet, they have Intimated their intention te abandon it. The an- nouncement made by the Mercury might be understood to mean that the representatives of the Lower Provinces, in abandoning the idea of appointing an Engineer have retused to co-operate with Canada. That would be the right couree of action for them. Canada and the Lower Provin- ces do not etand on the same par in this matter. Canada seems te be tritling, aud proposes this survey scheme iu order Wo back out of an awkward sitaation with a gowml grace, with a show ef wil- lingness to do something ; while the Lower Pro- vinees have solemmly pledged their resources to the work.” a Two new screw steamers of 700 tons burthen are about to be placed ou the route between vinces, tur frieght aud passeugers. One ot them! is expected at Quebee in a few days, and will be at ounce put on, running every alternate week while the navigation is open, with the Lady Head. During the winter the two steamers will run be- tween Portland at St. John, N.

Of the latter, I have thought proper to scribble % burried communication, to give you a synopsis of the organiaations, downfalls, and doings of the Volunteer Company in this locality. Some few years ago, when this t Volunteer movement was ravaging the minds of the enlightened in this country, and Com- panies being organized throughout divers settlements of the Island, a number of individuals Characteriged ta be more layal to the Crowa than the majority, iuamediately formed Hhemselyes into a Company (or rather & family compact.) named the Dalmenic Company.
