I-lASZARD'S GAZETTE. AUGUST 30.

Mount Ai.i.ison Acuinu.--\‘Vo have the ﬂcadruic Gazette ior June, which con- tains the names of the students (male and female) in the above Academy, a general circular of the course of study, mode of government, material, etc. etc. in use there, as means of education. The Sackville Academy as it is generally called, has long been favorably known as an i-daciitioiial institution, and the tittiiiber of youths who ltave bcensent thence into the world show that it has been a popular one. This popu- larity is on the increase. \Ve iind in the; Primary departtncnt ‘2‘.' scholars, in the; intermediate 76, and in the Collegiate l5,| being a total of l 13 male scolzirs, more, we; believe thait tiny other educational esta-I blisliinent in the Province cart boast. In the female ht-ancli, illt,'l'C are ill popils.l

The method of instruction at the .\Iount' Allison Ar-iulemy is stated in the General, Circular to be “that which after careful 0l)S(‘:'Vllll0l| and mature e.\pcriettce has; beenjudgetl hrﬁi crtlctiluted to interest the; youthful mind, and to develop invtst liariiio tiiuusly all its powers. The best text books extattt, in the various studies, are placed in the hands of the Student, who is required to tiiake liitnsclf acquainted with the suc- cos.-ive portions of these as they are from (lay in day deﬁnitely assigned by the Teachers, and to fut-iiisli satisfactory evi- dtnce of such acquaintance in his reeita-‘ tion-rooiiis at appointed hours. To do this he must study, and persevt-ring in so doing. week after week, he acquires the habit of incl/radical study. But to prevent the pre- paration for the recitation-room front tiecorriirig uiere task work and the recita- tion-i tnere memoriier repetition of words and phrases, the Student is encouraged to extend his range of inquiry beyond the‘ limits of his text-book,—to investigate and think and talk for liimself:—to lead him to do so is the constant endeavor of all the Officers of lnstruction."

Citi:vi.—'l‘he Friend of Clrina, June l0 says?—'l‘he revolution is progressing. Now up, now down, the patriots at present appear to be on the end of the " see saw." As foreigners in China, however. are far removed frotn the lighting ground, we have to trust to native report i'or all the know- ledge we can obtain ofthe subject, and this knowledge, in reality, is but little. Poli- tical reports ft-om the interior continues unsatisfactory. In Kiangsi, the Imperial troops are said to have been defeated by the rebels, and to have lost 3000 men, amongst them seven niandarins. In the north, the insurgents appear also to have met with much success, and the town of Fingkwo-Foo has been taken by them. This place lies about 100 miles westward of Hoochow, the centre of the silk district. Parties are sitid to have approached Pun- new-Chiu, and cause much alarm at Soochow. These disturbances had affected trade at Shanhai, and the new teas were expected to be late in arriving, owing to the interference to transit.

The Portland ﬂdverliser gives the parti- culars of a melancholy sail-boat accident in Casro Bay, by which a whole party from Yarinouth (U. S.) was drowned.

“ All those who in tlillcrctit regions of the earth preserve a remembrance of my name and affection for my works, l or- denlly beg to receive with friendly inter- est and to aid with their counsels the bearer of these lines, Mrs. Ida Pfeilf I’, who is celebrated itot only for the itoblc constancy that, amidst so many dangers and privations, has led her twice round the globe, but above all for the amiable simplicity and modesty whiclt pervade her works, for her truthfulness and phil- anthr0P.Vi for the correctness of her judgments. as well as for the indepen- device, and at the same time the delicacy of her sentiments. Enjoying the confi- dence and friendship of this estimable lady, l only blame her—though I cannot refrain front admiring it—for that indom- itable energy ofcharacter which she has displayed, wherever site has been called or, I should rather say, has been impelled, by an uitconquerable passion for explor- ing nature and the habits of the various human races. As the oldest living trav- eller, l fella desire to offer Mrs. Ida l’i'cili'er this splendid proof of my high and respectable esteem.

Tits: lsu: or Situtun'rs.—A Vienna let- of the 8rd says,—“ it is stated here on good authority that the Austrian cabinet has addressed a note to Russia couched in extremely energetic language, and contains it serious protest against the Russian occupation of the Isle of Ser- panls, at the mouth of the Danube. It sets forth that one of the results obtained by the treaty of peace—viz, the free navi- gation of the Danube, would be endan- gered and even neutraliscd by this meas- ure. To obtain this right of free navi- gation for Germany was the principle for Austria's intervention to bring about the peace of Europe. it is fully expect- ed, that the Etnperor of Russia will com- preltend the force of the Austrian note, and being himself so pacilically inclined, will not tail to give orders for the im- tnediate evacuation of_tlie island in ques- tion, the iurther occupation of which would only tend to produce fresh compli- cations and render the treaty oi peace a dead letler.” trople of the 25th ult. says:-—“ The ques- tion about the possession of tire Isle of Serpants is not yet settled. The Divan had at first determined to send over a high dignitary of the state, accompanied by a strong military detachment, to force the Russians to evacuate the position. Btit the plan met such opposition, that it was given up. ltwas satisfactorily prov- cd that, witltout in the least compromis- ing the Sultan's rights of sovereignty, the group of island belonged at all events to the llanttbian Priticipalities, and that as the l’orte wits bouttd by treaties not to inaintaiii stiiiiding gttrrisons in Moldavia and Wnllacliia, it would be it breach ol good faith to garrison the isle of Serpents with Turkish soltlicrs.” '

Those who imagine the Army List, by Authority," to be that dull record of statistics which its title would seem to import are muclt mistaken ; any one wading through its 200 and odd pages will find it n tnost varied compilation, izntiittlnltig much to amuse, and more to instruct. The first oti the list of Field- Marshals is the King of the Belgians, his Majesty having received his baton in May l8l6; he has no regiiiicnt. Next in seniority cottii-s—witlt ll host of Chris- tian names and titles—his Royal llighnes the Prince Consort ; more fortunate tliait his Royal uncle, he has two re-.;iiiients, the Grenadier Guards and the ltiiie Brigade; of the latter he is colonel in Clilt'f, liaving two generals—Sir Harry Smith and '

b George Browit—as coloiicls conimandaiit under him, to divide between tliutn arty little patronage (and little indeed it must be!) unappropriated by his Royall Higliness. Tlicti we have Lord Cumber-

mere, who is at the head of the lst Life: Guards ; next, Lord Strafford, whotaltesl the Coldstreaiiis. Whilst Lord llardinge, ‘ who has rendered more substantial ser-l vices than Combermere atid Stralibrd l ptit together. is conletited with the 57th

Foot. We itow get at the Generals.

They are 60 in number (excltisivo of the Artillery, Engineers. and Marines‘, and 5 divide5l regiments between them. The 1 87th (Royal lrish Fusiliers) has for its: Colonel no less a hero than General Sir} James Simpson, G. C. B.l The veri- table Sitnpstin of the Redan ! As bcforel stated, the sixty Generals have fifty-one regiments, thus leaving nine of them to be provided for by “ unaltachr,-tl pay.” Of these nine, three receive £l l'.’s (id a day ; nnotlier (Gen. White), £700 a_ year, and the remainder 255 :i-day.

Eighty Lieut. Generals have seventy-two

for the “ unattached pay," one of whom

(Lieut. General Sliawe) receives 13600 a-year, the rest 253 a day. One hundred and forty-tlirce Major-Generals share only seven regiments between tlieiri. Of 136 Major-Generals unprovidcd for by regiments, one (llall) receives £1 9: 2d per day ; two (Stnnhope and Lord ltoke

by), £60011 year each ; ﬁve (I-lay, Anger- stein, Eden, Dixon, attd Fludyer), £550 a year each. It may be as well here to state, that of these eight favoured indi- viduals, only one (Lord Rokeby) has a decoration; he is a K. C. B., and is also
