A tub | suspended by a cable is hoisted and lowered by steam power, 'in which the fragments of rock are hoisted out of the shaft, and the men are lowered and hoisted. On Saturday at noon 'as five men were coming out of the shaft the cable parted at a splice just as they reached the surface of the earth and the tub was being swung off, and they were precipitated to the bottom. Patrick Daly and Martin Burke were instantly ‘killed ; Robert Kiely died ina few minutes after he was taken }out of the shaft.

To this end a call will be 'made on the Secretary of the Treasury for information as to /the working of the treaty, and it is believed that it will show ‘that the United States have lost largely as far as revenue i concerned, while the Canadians have received all the benefit. The amendment sought is to enlarge the free list between the 'two countries to all articles actually grown by each respec- ‘tively. This will include tobacco and sugar, which are now ‘excluded, and from the duties on which the Canadian | Goverament derives a large portion of its revenue, and if it |refuses to accept this very proper ameadment, then notice is ‘to be given so as to put an end to the treaty. Some of the most prominent members of both houses feel a warm interest
“| in the subject, and there is little doubt that the matter will
| be successfully pressed.”

| purpose of holding their meeting, but the door was closed against them, and they betook themselves to’a little shop, ten feet square, which was close by. Here a young schoolmaster | called his flock to order, which consisted of thirteen persons— boys included—and the knight of the birchen rod was elevated to the dignity of President of the Unholies of Princetown Royalty. It appears, however, this distinguished assemblage were not sufficiently well versed in affairs of state to get up a political discussion, and the meeting terminated after some idle chit-chat about the advantages of singing schools,—whe- ther the President favoured his audience with a stave or two in illustration of the subject, our correspondent sayeth not. The Royalty of Prineetown has always been regarded as one of the strongholds of Toryism, but there the cause has either
| gone to decay, or the principal men of the opposition party have become ashamed of the Unholy confederation. 9-netie
We take the following short article, in reference to our late Governor, from the Newfoundland Express, of Nov. The Express is, we believe, the organ of the Conservative party in the sister Colony — at all events, it does not support the pre- sent Liberal Government there ; and it is gratifying to observe
99
ad
| that there are honest Conservatives to be found, who will speak ‘and write the truth of Sir Alexander :-—
The appointment of Sir Alexander Bannerman as the suc- cessor of Governor Darling seems to be highly satisfactory to our ministerial contemporaries—so much so indeed as to afford some ground for the surmise that the ministry did not find Mr. Darling by any means such a Governor as they could make use of; and that there may be some anticipation of Governor Bannerman being more pliant. If we are not misinformed as to his Excellency’s character, he will be found a very fit sue- cessor to our present talented and much respected Governor ;
sisting any attempts at encroaching upon it; and personally examin- ing into details, so as to be satisfied that departmental officers discharge their duties faithfully and efficiently.
Sir Alexander Bannerman is a native of Aberdeen, where his father was a leading merchant. He is 68 years of age, having been born in 1788, and was married in 1824 to Miss Guthrie, second daughter of G. J. Guthrie, Esq., of Berkeley Street, London. At the general election in 1832, he was re- turned to Parliament in the whig interest, by the electors of his native city, and continued to represent Aberdeen until his
appointment to the Government of Prince Edward Island, hace six yearsago. By his long parliamentary experience,
he is here, where he will find a ministry by no means profoundly versed in constitutional usages, nor by any means disinclined
to overstep the boundaries which long practice and the judg- |
ment of successive sovereigns, and eminent statesmen have
fixed in England as the limits of the prerogative of the,
sovereign on the one hand, and of the ministry and parliament on the other. There has been one difficulty created. by the
'injudicious legislation of the Assembly at the instance of the |
resent Govyernment—the Governor’s salary is reduced to £2,000 a-year, which is altogether inadequate, and is well known to have been intended as a measure to secure some
little popularity ; but which the Home Government was not
expected to sanction. It has, however, been sanctioned, and the ministry are now in the predicament of having placed the Governor in a position. where he has not sufficient income to sustain the dignity of his office.
