SATURDAY, neonatth 9, 1843.

The R. M. Steamship ACADIA arrived at Halifax, from Liverpool, on Monday last, after a passage of 15 days. The Mail was received in this town by the ST. GEORGE {ruin Pictou, on Wednesday last, about 10, p. m. Oui‘

:1London dates are thus brought down to the l7ih, and . Liverpool to the 18th ult. Little progress has yet been made in the State trials , :in Ireland; and ifthe statement, that one of the defen- : dants alone has 30,000 witnesses to examine, which we observe put forth in some ofthe papers, be correct it is very difficult indeed to say when the proceedinos’ may "terminate. It is even stated in someof the Dufilin pa- pers—and, judging front present appearances, we think , .such a dctiourtmenl not at all improbable—that, in con- ' . sequence ofthe bungling manner in which the business ' .has been managed, and the informality ofthe proceed- .iiigs, the prosecution will be abandoned! It is said that Mr. O’Connell’s health is seriously im- , paired, and that he has been ordered by his medical ad- ‘ g” -visers to try a change of air. a _ Trade, we aretglad to learn, continues gradually to umprove. The Foreign intelligence is not of much importance.

Mac'rmo on Tue LecisLa'l‘une.—The Royal Ga- zette of Tuesday ,contains a Proclamation summonina the Legislature of this Island to meet for the DlsptltC/al of Business on Thursday, the Qist inst. Various con- jectures are afloat as to the reasons which have induced .ihe Executive to call the Legislature together so much earlier than usual, and at a season when it must be no amall inconvenience to the country members to be absent "from their homes. We believe the true reason will be found—if we may hazard a conjecture on the subject— in the circumstance that certain hon. members (includ- ,.ing the Speaker of the House) having accepted offices of emolumeut under the Crown since the last Session, their seats have become jeopardized thereby, and the sooner the-question is decided, the better. If this be the ob- ject the Executive have in view, in thus calling the House together, we cannot help expressing our entire «concurrence in the p ilicy they have, in the present iti- stance, adopted. this movement, is a mystery beyond our power to solve.

The following Resolution was proposed by the Hon. Charles Young, and unanimously adopted by the Insti- tote :—- ‘

1.—Rtts0ivr.n, That the Members of the Charlottetown 'Met-hnnics' institute sincerely regret the departure from this dilatiduf the Reverend James Wuddell, who was one of the must active and useful members of the Institute, and who always evinced a disposition to promote the objects for which it has been established; that his exertions on behalf of the Institute have evor~been duly appreciated by the members, and deserve their warmest thanks; that while the members deplore any . ‘ , occurrence that has caused the removal of Mr. Waddsll from

., 2 this Colony, yet they beg to assure him, that wherever Divinc ' " Providence is pleased to place him, he carries with him their chest wishes for the future Welfare of himself, his lady and his children.

Andthereupon—

2. RESOLVED, That the Hon. Charles Young, the President, 1 Vice-Presidents and Secretary do compose a Committee, for the ' purpose of transmitting a copy of the foregoing Resolution to Mr. Weddell. '

Fine—On Saturday last, about One, p. m., the workshop of Mr. James Maclean, Cooper, in Water Street, was dis- .covered to be on fire. The dwelling—house being immedi- ately connected with the workshop, both were very speedily enveloped in flames. No person being in the workshop at ithe moment the fire broke out, a live coal is supposed to harm lallen upon and ignited the shaving which were lying ibickly underneath and around the stove. Although the two .‘town and Mr. Coles’ Fire Engines were on the spot within .a very briefspnce after the first alarm was given, anti al- though the buildings were situated on the water side, yet, it being nearly low water at the time, and the nearest well unfortunately dry, the supply of water to the Engines was Io scanty, that they were comparativer useless, and both Tbuildings, with the chiet'part of their contents, were almost

totally consumed.

FIRE-EATER! 1n Astenics.—The fire-eaters no ' ' ihrough the United States perform feats absolutelwiiircarydilil'se. Red-hot pokers, boilinglend, ignited gunpowder, melied sulphur appear to produce no effect on their indnruied organs. Bord philosophical question arises, as to whether they owe this impu- nity to any preparatory applications to the parts, or the great care exercvsed in applying ” Hollowny’s Ointment," and in tak- ing “ Holloway’s Pills," immediately after performinw? We suggest this query from the fact ofthe extraordinary efficacy of the Ointment, and its auxiliary. the Pill, (n tonic and nlteraiive), in subtluing all maladies. In Cancer. Rheumatism, Gout, Para- lvpis, Glandular Complaints, Scrnfula, Wounds of every kind, Piles, doc. file, we can most confidently recommend these inva- luable spectfics.
