to renew to you my acknowledgments of the assiduous and | ggtisfuctory maover in which your Legislative duties have’ been discharged, and for the effectual attention you have | given to the various subjects which 1 recommended specially | tdyour-cousider{tion: °

Mr. Speaker and Gentlemen of the House of Assembly :

[ thank you in Her Majesty's name for the supplies which you have granted for the public service.

Mr. President and Honorable Gentlemen of the Legislative

Council :

Mr. Speaker and Gentlemen of the House of Assembly :

The. joy ful event of the marriage of the Princess Royal with Prince Frederick William of Prussia, has afforded you an opportunity, of which you would not separate without availing yourselves, to renew to Her Majesty the assurance | of those feelings of loyalty and devotion towards Her Ma-| jesty’s person, which ever lead you warmly to sympathize in every event tending to promote her happiness.

It will be my pleasing duty to transmit your Address to be laid at the foot of the Throne,

The limit assigned by the Constitution to the duration of this Provincial Parliament being about to expire, I feel that Lam justified in congratulating you on the share that the legislation in which you have been engayed, during its ccn- tinuance, has had in producing the state of progressive improvement and perfect tranquility whieh happily prevails throughout the Island. It is my firm res>lutien to continue to administer the Government in conformity with the wishes of the people, as expressed tirough the local Legislature, believing that this course of proceediag, on my part, is best calculated to secure the contentment and peace, which, under Divine Providence, are the foundations of national prosperitry

I confidently hope that, when you return to your homes you will use your just influence in promoting in your several Districts that habitual respect for the Law, and those feelings of mutua! kindness and good will, which are essential to the welfare aud happiness of every community, and which it has been my endeavour to establish in this Island.

Tne news by the English Mail, which arrived in this place on Friday morning last, is for the most part, unimportant. Canton, so lately rudely assailed by the allied squadrons of England and France, has been tranquilized by the cessation of hostilities, and John Chinaman purses his daily walks and conversation as if nothing had happened. In India, the vigorous exertions of the new Commander-in-Chief are rapid- ly extinguishing the brands of rebellion, and no further risings of any consequence seem to be apprehended. Some very in- teresting incidents and details of the Mutiny will be given in our next No.

Althou,sh, a few weeks since, there was some reason to ap- prehend a disruption of the amicable relations between France and England, owing to the failure of Lord Palmerston’s Go- vernment to obtain the sanction of Parliament to the Murder Conspiracy Bill, there seems to be, at present, a gocd under- standing between the two countries. Franee, however, appears to be in « very unsettled state; and if any thing more than another could indicate the insecurity of its Government and institutions, it is the enormous number of arrests made in all the depariments of the Empire for alleged political offences.

In England, the members of Lord Derby's Cabinet, and the subordinaie officers of the Government who held seats in the House of Commons, and who vacated those seats by acceptance This fact does not, however, afford a satisfactory proof of the popularity

of office, have all been returned without opposition.

of the new Government. Their administrative policy stands or falls by the decision of Parliament. We believe the de- cision will be given against them, so soon as the Commons have recovered repose from the irritation caused by the ap- parent misunderstanding between France and England. And

it is not likely that Lord Derby will seek to perpetuate his |

power by an appeal to the constituencies. of the United Kingdom of England and Ireland is too en- lightened to favor the retrogade movement of Toryism.

THE

MAIL.

The news from India is of a less exciting character than’ any recéived for some time past. The suppression of the mutiny appears to be proceediag steadily and surely. Trying emergencies, desperate struggles, and forlorn hopes on the | part of British troops, have ceased to be characteristics of the war. The Bombay correspondent of the London T'imes Writes as follows :

“The great central fire of the insurrection is to be com- pressed within the limits of Oude and Rohileund, and there to be trodden out to its last smouldering cinder. It would not suffice that every body of armed rebels in the open field should be dissipated, or even that every vaunted stronghold should be laid low. Great as these gains would be, they We seek that within the limits of these two great provinces the revolt should be not merely broken, but annihilated.”

The news from China is unimportant. The papers contain some further particulars of the capture of Governor Yeh.

France is in a very unsettled state. The arrests have been on a much larger scale than was supposed. The Paris cor-

NEWS BY THE ENGLISH

| respondent of the London Herald states, that within the last

two weeks the arrests made in the various departments may be counted by thousands.

Arrangements are being made to commence laying the Atlantic Telegraph Cable in the middle of June. The Agamemnon and the Niagara are the vesscls again to be em- ployed in the attempt to lay the wire.

Tke new Chancellor of the Exchequer informed the House of Commons on the 12th instant, that an answer had been re- eeived from the French Government to the despatch trans- mitted to that Government by the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, and that the answer was calculated to in- crease the friendly relations subsisting between the two countries. As soon as he had received Her Majesty’s per- mission, he would lay the correspondence on the table of the House.

On the motion of the House of Commons fer the second reading of the Government of India Bill, Lord Palmerston said that he would not abandon the bill till he saw what the present Government intended to do. He therefore pestponed the motion till the 22d of April.

The Bank returns, published in the Gazette last night, show an inerease of nearly £100,000 in the amount of bullion. There is also an increase of £641,844 in the re- serve of notes and coin.

It appears from a parliamentary return that the total in- crease of the public debt, during the last ten years, has been £24,237,214, of which more than £20,000,000 was created to meet the exigencies of the Russian war. The total avnual interest, payable on the whole increase, is £1,153,109.

Dr. Livingstone, the celebrated African traveller, left the Mersey for his African destination on the 10th inst., in the steamer Pearl. He is accompanied by several scientific and professional gentlemen. An English paper says that the Pear] will steam direct to Sierra Leone, thenee to the Cape, and thence to the Zimbesi, ascending that river as far as her draught of water (about ten-feet) will permit. The expedi- tion will be watched with great interest by the people of England, and it is to be hoped, for the sake of civilization, that the most ardent aspirations of the enterprising head of the party will be fully realized.

The Attorney General for Ireland has been re-elected for the borough of Enniskillen, without opposition.

Great destitution prevails in London, which is aggravated by the inclemency of the season.

FRANCE.

| Rumoar declares that Orsini has acknowledged the parti- _cipation of the Carbonari in the death of the Duke of Parma,

and that three victims were designated at the judgment |

|whereat the Duke was condemned. | second is evident from the result.

In consequence of a decree pronounced by the Assize Court of the Seine, several documents calculated to enlighten the English judges as to the guilt of Bernard and Allsop, have been forwarded to M. Bonnard, the consulting advocate of the French embassy in London.

It is stated on good authority that the great tragic actress, Madame Ristori, has gone to Paris, and that, accompanied by Orsini’: children, she will appeal for mercy to the Em- press, at the foot of the throne. Madame Ristori, herself an Italian, is said to be connected with some of the noblest Ro- man ancestries, and could appropriately undertake the task of suing for the life of her mistaken countryman.

An Englishwoman, the young wife of De Rudio, has ar- ‘rived in Paris with her two children, to solicit the clemency (of the Emperor. Madame De Rudio bas presented a petition to the Empress.

It is said that the head of the political office in the French ministry for foreign affairs is about to make a journey to London.

As the period approaches when the Court of Cassation must decide on the appeal of Orsini, Pierri and Rudio against their sentence, the two latter give signs of thte most abject ‘fear. Pierri has had, at his request, an interview with the | Procureur Imperial, at which he promised to turn approver 'so his life is spared. He offers to reveal the names of al] the persons implicated in the late attempt, whose number, he says, is very great ; but he refuses to make any unconditional disclosure.

Pants, March 11.—The Court of Cassation to-day rejected the appeal of Orsini, Rudio and Pierri against the sentence of death. Their execution is expected to take place to-day.

The Paris vorrespondent of the Globe, says—“ To-day it appears that the wife and daughter of Orsini have come from Nice. The lady has long been living apart from her hus- band, but in his present position old affection has resumed its influence. They meet to part to-day.”

A supplement to the London Gazette is published, con taining several despatches and number of casualty returns. The despatches deseribe various successfal operations in India, which took place at dates ranging between October 21 and November 380.

Colonel Wilson, commanding at Cawnpore, writing on October 21, details’ the proceedings against a division of the Delhi fugitives, mustering 3,000 men and eight guns, whom he attacked at Sheraipore, 22 miles from Cawnpore, and com-

pletely routed them. The loss on the part of the rebels was | dition of the people of Prince Edward Island. Itis now quite chasers as will prove to the eaterprisin

considerable ; that of Colonel Wilsou’s force was three kiiled and six wounded. ;

Colonel Forster, commanding at Shekhawatte, reports, on the 9th November, the successful operations of a wing of his regiment in the Maunboom district. The rebel chief Neel- money Sing was in the hills with about 4,000 followers, but when the British troops approached him, within musket shot, he quickly surrendered. His stronghold, which mounted 4 guns, was dismantled, and great quantities of arms and am- munition destroyed.

Brigadier Stuart, commanding the Malwa field force, (now Ist Brigade Nerbudda field force), describes at considerable length his successful operations against the insurgents as-

}

24th of November. The fort was dismaotled, and the guus camp to Mundisore. During the four days’ attack our Joss. amounted to seven killed and sixty-nine wounded,

The casualties generally refer to officers and civilians, with, in some instances, their wives and families, killed in action,

during the earlier period of the mutiny.

EXAMINER.

SPAIN.

The Parlamento, a Madrid journal of some importance, asserts that the political refugees now in Spain ought to be | subjected to restrictive measures; and that for the fature such refugees ought not to be admitted into the country.

The following private telegram has been received, dated Madrid, March 9:—*According to the latest accounts, M. Zuloaga, the provisional president of Mexico, is well disposed to settle the difference with Spain.”

Manvxip, March 10.-—The statement that General Concha is to be removed from his post of Governor of Cuba has been contradicted on authority.

AUSTRIA.

Vrenna, March 11.—An excellent understandiag has al- ready been established between the Derby ministry and this government. It is announced in the Weimer Zeitung that the Empress is evciente.

TURKEY.

According to Constantinople journals of the 24th ult., no arrangement has yet been come to between the Turkish and Knglish governments on the subject of the island of Perim, and it was thought that the matter would come before the Congress of Paris,

We are informed by a telegram that there has been a fight between the Turks and Montenegrins near the Turkish fort- ress of Lessandria, on the Seutari Lake. The Montenegrins captured a Turkish vessel, with its guns and 25 prisoners, who were immediately beheaded. Their own loss was 7 killed and 14 wounded.

Tur Artantic TetecraruH.—The directors of the Atlantic Telegraph Company have, it appears, recovered from the disappointment of their last year’s failure, and are making arrangements for a second attempt to stretch the telegraph cable across the Atlantic. The order for the supply of 400 miles of the rope to replace the quantity lost last year has just been completed by Messrs. Glass and Elliot. This new quantity does not in the least degree differ in its appearance or con- struction from that made last year. It is at present being coiled away from the works at East Greenwich on board the screw steamer Adonis, by which it is to be carried to Keyham Dockyard, to be joined to the principal ws of the cable which is at present stowed away there. Its length of 400 miles, however, only supplies the place of that which was absolutely lost. The total length of the cable is about 2,900 miles. The ships will proceed to the middle of the Atlantic, and wait there for fine weather before the cable is dropped ; they will then proceed on their journey, one to America and the other to England. Before the definite departure of the expedition the ships will proceed into deed water in the neighbourhood of the mouth of the Channel, and then go through the whole of the evolutions of joining, paying out, and under-runnin the cable, to be definitely certain that everything is in ion working order. At the very latest the expedition will be ready to leave before the beginning of June.

Dear Srr,—I am sure you will give mé credit for trathful- ness when I say, that the receipt of the following letter from the Hon. Dr. Young, ‘* with its enclosure,’’ was, on my part. altogether unexpected, as that gentleman had never given the slightest intimation of his intention to address the Directors of tle Alliance Insurance Company on the subject. And I con- sider it a duty I owe to the Company to make this act of their liberality public; for although I conceive it to be the duty of every man in the community to endeavour to the utmost of his ability te save his neighbour from suffering and loss— yet a knowledge of the manner in which such an effort has been met in this case may stimulate others to the same exertions. At the same time I feel assured very many persons at the late fire were equally as deserving of reward as Fides been.

Str,—In your paper of the 22d instant, I find a commu- nication signed * P. G. Clark, Deputy Sheriff,” by which I am much pleased to learn that the exposure made in the columus of the People’s Journal relative to the manner io which advantages are taken of the unfortunate tenantry of this Colony, is producing the desired effect of rendering the “ bar- barous work of seizures, &c., for rent,’’ so exceedingly un- popular and revolting to every right-thinking man in the community, that even subordinate law-oflizers themselves are not willing to be stigmatized for having any lot or part in the matter. Our authority, however, for the allusion made in our issue of the 2Uth inst. to the Sheriff’s Deputy of Queen’s County, (or, we beg his pardon, “ Sheriff.” as he terms him- self,) is too well-founded for us to accept of his mere ipse dixit in refutation thereof. His allusion to my character is nothing more nor less than what I may expect from “ P. G, Clark,” espevially when [ dare to grapple with the cruelty and tyranny practised upon the poor settlers of this Island by that faction whose good offices he seems so very anxious to retain. I shall, therefore, continue to regard with perfect indifference his personalities; but, at the sume time, would hint to him the fact, that he is the last person in this com- munity who should charge others with any * peculiar vice.” Hoping this may serve to remind hira that “ people living in glass houses should net threw stones,” I remain yours, &c.

And this Deponent further saith, that he was standing close to the said Peter Clark at the time of the affray, and that the said Peter Clark did not use the words, stated by him in evidence tewards this Deponent, neither did this Deponent catch the said Peter Clark by the leg, as stated by him, nor did he, in any way, oppose or endeavour to prevent Young from being taken, but assisted, as far as he considered it necessary, when he saw Young beaten to a state of insensibility ; and this Deponent believes, when he left them, that any old woman in the settlement could have tied the said Wiliiam Young, as he was totally incapable of making any resistance.
