Tun Editor of the 1'.‘.ramincr, with an apparent show ofjustiec, complains o the slovviicss oi the regress made by the City t.‘n1Int9Il- 1lI0|_'9 has ecn, however, much more «limo. Illa“ '10 18 aware of. The formation ofa Code of Bye-li-tws is not so easy as the Emmincr supposes. it is not the duty of the Recorder to draft the mum- cipal code, for he cannot be suppu_scd_ to know by in tuition, how the City Council Inleml _tlI0 Corporation shall be govcrticd, and the copying the Laws ofotlicr places is attended with no small risk of doing injury instead ofgood. The truth is, that the fewer Bye-L-iws the (3orpoi_-n- tion is eiicunibered with, the better. We agree. however, with him, in wishing that the Council had taken into their conszderation the subject of the streets and se\vei-s; these are most iiii- portint siibjects, and the soonccr they are set about the better. The principal end in insti- tuting the Corporation systcln was, to enable it to borrrow money to execute these improve- ments, and it is uccoi-diii-,;l_v empowered to raise .-1.1.3.0!!!) by way of loan, but we liavo not as yet, heard ll. word of a«lverti7.in,r; for tenders either for iuaking r2;\Vci':l, or lending iaoncy. All, however. is in ;:,»»otl time as yet, the winter is new setting in, and the plan of opcratioiis may

be carefully laid down atlcisiire and the neces- o . 9

sary preliminary preparations made in order to‘opcu the c.iiup:i.igu with vigor. as soon as the Spring coniiiiences. The first thing, however, is to ascertain the resources of the City, and this cannot be cllected, until the Assessors have iiiade their report as to the amount of property liable to assessiiient, the next paint will be, to raise the necessary sum to meet the annual or semi-annual payment of the interest upon the sum intended to be borrowed, this is absolutely necessary, for no one would like to fund money unless he saw that the payuient of the inter- est was secured beyond the possibility ofdisap- pointinent. This last point satisfactorily settled, the money would. we think, he readily l'ortli- coming. We have not the least doubt, but that the Council will bend their energies to the task during the ensuing season, iﬁid irove them- selves worthy of the trust that has been l'L'pUl§L'd in them.

'l‘iis Westminster lie-.-iew has been just re- ceived. We have bad but time to take a glance at one of the articles “ 'l‘lie position of We man." This, however, is extremely interesting. and di.==pl.tys a depth of research and a variety of reading, that proves the writer to be perfect- ] competent to the task he has undertaken. W'c purpose to give sviiue extracts in a future issue. "ii:-, contents of the Nuiiiher are as fol- lows :—l, Tizcisin. 23, i\l:ircus Tullius Cicero. Ii, ' ‘he position of woman in Barbarisin and among the Ancients. -L l-Ivangclieal Tcacliiiig. 5, Drunkcnncss not curable by Legislation. 6, The London Daily l’ress.—('ontcnipor.ii'y Li- terature.

Gas Lioiir.—'l‘he question appears to be al- most uuivcrsal ' tliroughout Charlottetown — Why is it that we have such bad (iasl We cannot answer, but certain it is, that we have never had, and could scarcely have worse. 'l‘lie gas light under which we write at present is scarcely eighteen inches from the sheet ofpa- per, and yet we are compelled to have a lighted cundlc before us to enable us to see. It has

one out ofits own accord four times \vitliin the last ﬁfteen minutes. and is now tluttering like the snutfof an exhausted candle. We note the circumstance for the information of the bias Com any. ’l‘imc—Friday evening, six o’clock. There is something very wrong about the trans- actions of the Company. if we are to have gas, let us have something deserving the namc.—E.r.

The Rev. Mr. Brewster. according to an- nouncements, delivered his Lecture upon "The Wnr," to II largo and crowded audience, in the Tcmpornncc [ls l, on Monday evening, the 19th instant. His Excellency the Licut. Governor honored the meeting with his preccncc,und occupied the chair on the right of the Presi- dent. By special request, the Hon. Charles Young presided, and opened the proceedings by reading the following appropriate Hymn :-

Tl-ll Lord is King, uud onrth Iubmito, Hcwo'cr im ticnt, to his army; Between tho hcrubim ho nits, And make: his rontloco fooo obcy.

All powor is to our Jcous given; O'or curth’o robolliouc nonn ho reigns; Ho mildly rulco tho hum of von; in tho pcvi on of hell in chains.

Como gloricbflzord, the robohi npurn, Scottor thy fooo, victoriouo King:

And Goth cud Acltolon ohull mourn, And oil the mm of God shall sing:

Sholl mognify tho oovori ii gruco Of him that sit: upon I o thrcnc; And ourth and hcovon conopiro to [ruin Johcvnh, oud his conquoring non.

'l'hc Choir, under the able superintendence of Nlr. Moore, then sang the llyinii, accoiupa- nieil by ll hlelodeon, played by Miss Duchemin.

Mi‘. Brewster was then introduced, and for an hour and it-hall’, encliaineil liisaudicnce with one of the most llllL!l‘..‘Sllllg Lcctures—partly written, but ehiclly oxteinpoi'aiieous—tliat we have ever been privileged to hc:ir. lle coin- nienced by stating, tlia.t he did not intend to enter ininutcly into any discu.~sion upon ‘the prigin ofthe present war, nor to occupy time in fruitless speculation ofiis linal results; but he would endeavor to show the pure, exalted, and benevolent motives by which Ureat liritain and l“i'aiice were proniptt.-d in dmwiiig the sword in behalfof Turkey against Russia.

Secondly, To consider the iiiagaitude of riiis

'_ar: the old and veiicralile Nations engaged therein, and the vast and important results to the a-lvanccini-at of Christian eivilimtion pend- ing: npoii its linal issue.

l'nirdly, To discuss the ~,;re.it principles which’ form the basis o£'tIie iiatioiial t'll:).I'.l.ClL'l‘ oi those who are i:i alli inc.- flgilillrili the .\luscovite pow- er, as \\'l‘ll as of (lies: N tii-ms who are merely spectators of the awful eonllict, and stand on neutral «,;roun~‘..

And lastly, To acknowledge the Hand of the

such signal triumplis as have been achieved

in the Crimea and elsewhere, during the pre-

sciit niighty struggle.

The liev. and learned Lecturer amplified cu-li

of these divisions with much p()'.\‘Cl', interspci'.-‘ed

his rciiiarks with numerous and zippropriato in-

cidents of the War, displayed a peculiar know-

ledge of his subject, gave cxpaiisive views ofthc

pres::nt position ofthe .\'ations of lhirope, and

mzinifestcd throughout, such principles ell loy- alty, as to call forth repeated bursts ofapplansc.’ When he concluded, the Choir sang the two l'ollo\vin;; verses, the entire audience standing: (ion save Victoria,

Long live Victoria-

(iod s.ivi- our liiici-ii!

Send hcr victorious.

Ilappy and glori-«us,

Long to reign over us-— -

God save‘ the Queen !

The Hon. the Colonial Secretary, then moved a vote of tlianks to the llev. Mr. lire\v.~at~:r, which was seconded by John Loiigworth, l'i.<q., and carried by acclaiiiation.

Mr. Brewster in returning thanks, said, that

ic was gratiiicd :i.t the manner in which his huinblo ctiiirts had been received, that his iiio- tive in pri-pariii;:; his Lecture were simply to do what he could in aiding those benevolent c.\'cr- tions that were being inudc on behalf of the Poor under the Patronu-,;c of the Lady of our excellent Governor.

The Doxology was then sung, and the Meet- ing departed.

After deducting necessary expenses, the very handsome sum of £13 10s. was ieulizcd,:i.nd has been handed over to the Committee of the lia- zillll‘.

Mus. I).ii.v, as Patroiiess, and the Ladies of of the Committee of Manageiiieiit of the Ba’/.ziar to be held on the 27th December next’, tender their best thanks to the Rev. Mr. lirewstcr, for the sum of'l‘hirtcen Pounds ten Shillings. the proceeds of admission to his Lecture, given at the Temperance Hall on the 19th November in- stant, for the kind and charitable purpose of aiding the poor and destitute of tliiiconimunity during the approaching winter.

Win. Welsh and Andrew Doyle were some of the parties concerned ; but, pre- vieus to its conclusion, soino angry, insulting discourse. commenced by Alexander (Tum ,ion towards Wm. Welsh, and was continued by Andrew Doyle toward Charles '1‘. Welsh, when, without any provocation on the part of the lat- ter, Doyle struck him on the face, which a - peered the signal for the general melee that instantaneously ensued, during which, William 'elsh was very severely handled, for besides being knocked down, cuffed and kicked by lcxauder and Michael Cainpion and Andrew Doyle, he on etting on his feet, received a blow on one si e ofhis head with a stone, and a thrust of seine sharp-poin ted instrument that severed an artery, (this is presumed to have been a tile, as such a weapon with it good-sized stone, covered with blood, were found in the room immediately on the portion having left it) these blows stunned and nocked down in. Welsh again, and left him apparently lifeless ; yet, in this helpless condition, the Campionn‘ and Doyle continued their cowardly treatment to Welsh, as he discovered on coming to his senses, that Alexander was holdin up his feet while Michael was kickin an atom - ing on his body,nnd Doyle mu ing"to ctri e him.
