SATURDAY, February 19, 1842.

Another new paper has been started at Halifax, N. 8., called THE SATURDAY EVENING VISITOR. It is published by Mr. RICHARD NUGENT, the Proprietor of the Novascotian, and is devoted to Temperance, Education, Morality, 8m. We have received the First and Second numbers, and, judging Wfrom these specimens, have no hesitation whatever in giv— ing it our cordial recommendation.

MI-zcnaxics’ INSTITUTE—Last week our columns were so fully occupied that we were under the necessity of defer- 9 ring the publication ofthe following report of the proceed- ings of the Institute, on the evening of the 9th inst., With a which we had been obligingly favoured by a correspondent. h On the occasion to which it refers, as stated in our last, CHARLES HENSLEY, Esq, R N., delivered an able Lecture on the “ Uses of History,” which was listened to with marked attention, and appears to have excited the admira- tion of all who heard it :—

The Institute was honored with the presence of its Patron, His Ex- cellency the Lieutenant Governor, who was received at the door by the President and Committee, and who, upon taking his seat in a state chair upon the restrum, under the canopy, on the right of his Honor the President, was loudly welcomed, and who listened, in commOn with all the audience, to the lecture with the deepest atten-’ tion. '

After the lecture, the President made some observations upon its subject matter, and congratulated the Institute with its then being, for the first time, honored with the presence ofits Patron, as he felt con- vinced that from the interest which His Excellency had displayed in the progreSs of their institution, and by the powerful force of his ex- ample and influence, the Institute would now assume a difl'crent posi~ tion in the community than it had hitherto enjoyed. The President then invited a discussion upon the subject matter of the lecture, and called upon the Rev. James Weddell to commence it. That Rev. gentleman, who has been ever found ready to put his shoulders to the wheel to advance the Institute, at once answered to the call, and made some very eloquent and appropriate remarks. He was follow- ed by Dr. Conroy, who concluded his observations by moving a Re- solution to the effect, that the learned lecturer be requested to furnish the Committee of the Institute with a copy of his admirable lecture, for the purpoee of having it published. Upon this resolu- tion being made, His Excellency the Patron rose, and said something to the following check—That he felt very great pleasure in se. conding the motion, as nothing he had ever heard exceeded the beauty, usefulness and sublimtty of the lecture. Just delivered, and he would wish to see it go forth to improve and inform the minds of ‘ those who had neither the time nor opportunity to consult the exten- f sivc field from which so vast a. quantity of information was drawn. He stood there simply as a. member of the Institute, and he felt happy to see the benches filled by those who spent the day actively employed at their different evocations, and who yet came here for recreation and instruction ; such, he would assure them, would be attended with the most beneficial results, as,.let them but taste of the cup of intellectual knowledge, opd they would become fond of the flavour, and let them drink of II: ever so deeply, they would never be accused of intemperance. His Excellency concluded by assuring the Institute that he would lib ever found a firm friend and cheerful supporter of chry thing that could improve the mind or advance the best interests of the inhabitants of the country.

His Excellency was cheered in several parts of his eloquent address, and sat down amid deafening plaudits of approbation.

The President was then about to put the motion, when Mr. Hensley rose, and said, that he begged respectfully to inter- rupt the Hon. the President, and request him not to put the motion, as he had certain reasons that swayed his own mind in declining to have his Lecture published ; that he felt extremely

sons had spoken upon the mode in which he had treated th SUbJECi, and also for the contemplated honor ol‘_havmg it, ii - lished, and that he felt extreme pain in being obliged to go use their request. Mr. Hensley then gave his reasons, ‘WIIIC were deemed to be quite suflicient, and the motion was Withdrawn. _ The President then suggested, thatralihough Mr. Hensley

ublication. et that erhaps he would be so kind as to deliver a Eopy to be p’lacbd inplhe archives of the Institute ; upon which His Excellency again rose. and after making some eloquent remarks, with his usual fluency, moved, that the unanimous

(On. the 2d inst., a public examination of the pupils of the District School of Nine Mile Creek, Lot 65, took place in presence ofCapt. Cumberland and Lady, Mr. .1. M‘Ncill, the Visitor, and several of the parents of the children. The scholars, numbering 48, wereexaii‘iined at considerable length in Reading. Spelling and English Grammar; some specimens of penniansliip were also exhibited. The performances were in general creditable, both to the children and the Teacher. Mr. Donald 311‘ Leod. Several priz_es, provided by the liberalin of Mrs. Cumberland, were then distributed to some of the most deserving scholars in each class. At the close of the examination, Captain Cumber- land addressed lhe scholars in an impressive manner, acknow-

encouraged them tofurtlier exertions, by the promise of his al— tendance at a future examination, and then still more liberally rewarded the most deserving among them—15.
