(ItlPLY.) To the Iiihabitants of Tryon and adjacent Scttlsrnents. Gun l‘Ll:M I it;

The cordial welcome which you offer to Lad y'Bannerman and me, on our visit to this part of the country, is very gratifying; and we shall always remember with nlfectioii the kind reception we have ever wlleie met with, during our tour through the Western part of the sland.

I thank you for your congratnliitioiis, on my assumption ofthe Guvernnient of this colony, and for our flattering allusion to my connection with the public service at I oiiie. I assure you, it tilTord- ed me great szitirlfaclion to witness in this colony, during the last Session of the Imgislsiture, so mut-.li important business conducted in so short it space of lime, and whit-.li, at its tcrinination, called forth the deserved and warm encoiniuiiis of the ivortliy gciilleiiieit who presides in your Assembly.

Ifl were led to believe in England, that there was a want of ina- terial in Prince Edward Island to conduct ii silnilttr system of Go- vernnio-at to that which had been conceded to the neighbouring l’roviiices, my short stay in tho colony has led inotoa contrary beliel; and that it was the wish ofa great niajority of its inhabitants to ébtain such a system of (iovernmunt, I am now fully convinced. Their loyiilty and alt.-iclimt-iii to their Sovereign and their rights, as British subjects, will entitle them to vrliztt they LOIIUILIC a boon- that it may prove lieiit=lici:il—tliat the Island may continue to proa- per, and that, antler I'i'ovidence, the hlcssiiiga of peace and happi- ness may dwell aniongsi the inhabitants, shall alwuylbe Ily sincere desire and most i-tirncst wishes.

COLOXI'l..-\'l‘l0N.

—i- (F. am. the L0.IIllHt Jlltirning Herald.)

Einigration, like every thing else, is ii subject of controversy; one party alleging that the stri.-ngtli ofa nation lies in the number of its inbubitttnts; anoilu-.r, that the rapid increase of population without a corresponding increase of wealth to supply it, is neither iiioroitorless than to multiply paupers. Perhaps a compromise may be t-.ll'ected between those two opposite opinions, without ex- actly goiug the length of either. "‘ ' '

'l‘raitsatluiitic Eiiiigralion cannot be checked, and all that Eng- land can now do is to direct its course. Ilow is this to be accom- plis|ied?—"Not.hing so easy," answer sortie philanthropic indi- viduals; " it is only giving free passages, or passages at a very reduced cost, to Quebec and Montrel, and thus divertin to our own possessions the current which at present sets towards 1 ie Unit- ed States.” We plead guilty to some doubts, tlrst, as to the efl'ics- cy of any such scheme; and secondly, as to its deairableness even supposing it possible. For, in the first place, the tendency of

, emigration to fly towards the United States is much too strong to

be counteracted by a mere saving of a few shillings in the voyage. From 1588 to 1880, out of a total of 6I3,2-IS emigrants, there wont to British North America 320,766——to the States only 292,- 492. From 1839 to 1849, on the other hand, the total of emi- grants landed in British North Americti was only 428,376-—while the Union received not less than 912.120. So considerable an in- crease in the latter case, not balanced by a correspondiii_ increase in the former, ovitletrily points to sortie stronger inducement than can be overcome by means an inadequate its lllorte III cited. The reasons of the change, we appreliend, are three-fol . Flljflr the older, the longer settled, and the more populous community ne. cess:iril_\' ulllrrtls a greater variety ofetnplo, ment, and a more ex- tcnsive demand for labour. Secondly, the passage to New York is shorter and salt-.r tliairthat to Quebec; and the greater portion of trallic vi-hit-li takes that road, enables captains and owners to take passengers at it cheaper rate. 'l'liirdly , the amount of mono sent ovt-r in small stints by those IIlt:II|lN.‘l'I of a family who have a ready einigratotl, to rclziliiuis at home, has been computed at more than half at lnillioii att-rling in the year 1849, proving thrit the settle- ment of one individual in a particular loca ity,draws others there also, and has a tt-ntleney in continue the stream ofemigration into that channel WlN’I0 it has already ht-gun to flow. \Ve cannot pro- noiinr-e exactly what atitount "of Government assistance would sutlice to couiitcrbalaiive these ndvtiiitagtrs; but inasmuch as the inert: tlilli-rence of cost in transport exceeds .l..'l per man, it is ob- vious thnt less than .£300,000 or £-l00,t)00 per annum would be entirely thrown away. Again, supposing these obstacles overcome, what security can be taken, that t.-inigrnnts passing through Canada shall not go and settle to the southward of the lint-’ Obviously iione,since ii Cliinese wall cannot be built up between the coun- tries, aiid the dilference of habits and manner of life is practically so srnnll, that to the labourer himself, it is a tiiatter ofindilfereiice in which he take up his abode. It is quite practicable by large outlay in gratuitous conveyance to bring labourera into Canada- lhe ditiiculty is to keep them there. \l/here wages are higher, where work is most easily obtained, where land is cheaper, there will the emigrant naturally establish his home, and to check this natural impulse by legislative encourngemenis or legislative restric- tions, is merely fighting against nature,-of course, with the cer- tainty of defeat. Nor do we incline to think, that the establishment of an emigration fund would produce the tallest of even increasing the number of those who leave our sliort.-s. The public purse is deep, and the public generosity somewhat undiscritninating—-two facts which those who draw upon the one and profit h the other seldom fail to keep in mind. It is probable, that in t e last two years, upwards ofn million and it half have been subscribed out_ of private funds for the purpose of encouraging a surplus population to emigrate, and one half ofihis train, at least, has «come from the other side the Atlantic. From the day that free passages he an to be granted, there would inevitably be an and to these contri u- lions. llt-noo it small grant is useless, na_v, worse than useless, since its amount \\0lIlt.I infallibly be exaggerated by popular ru- mour; and l'or every pound that Government gave, individuals would withhold two. If such and is to begiven at all, it must be in the form of public works. such as the llulifiix and Quebec Rail- road, which after many delays and dillicultiea, we are happ to see is now in n wtiy to be soon coinmt-nt-ed in good earnest. at, if it hedesiralile in set up acity of refuge in the New World for that pauper population, which, in yearly increasing numbers, seeks to escape from its owit doomed land, it is not less so to render the country which they abandon, available to some good purpose for those who stay at home.

[From Pulsky’s 1¥al1iti'oris.] AN HUNGARIAN IIOBBEIL

Prince Frederick Scliwarzenburg. the son of the celebrated Field- Mnrshnl Scliwitrzenburg, used alien to relate his encounter with the notorious robber Huburak. The prince once aceolvipiinied a lady from llutrgary to Vienna. They journeyed on the mountain roads between the countries of Gnmor and Tormn. Heavy showers had greatly damaged the roads; evening a roached; the tired horses had reached the ridge of the woody be t, but could not be a ed on further; and the travellers iserilhas compelled to seek the tor for the night in the inn of A tclek,a hiding place afill note for rob- bars. The carriage halted fore the house, and the servant in-

eired whether room could be afforded. The psbliean replied that
