Margin ef English Version.
Cues on the imperial Palatine, ‘Those arc hea of its pride around, I strove that chamber to divine, Where once Augustus might } Setting his signet te a scroll That all the a ition should enroll,
xe found,
‘Twas but his whim; ’twas done, ’twas o'er; The purblind despot never knew
That what he did forevermore Shonuidsoundthe wor ld -wide nations through |
That thus the Age of Cloud was closed,
And Numa and his nymph deposed.
As o’er the parlor’s cheequered board The ivory troops are moved at will, So Cresar sees his sovereign word All lands with haste and motion fill; He dreams not that his own proud ha nd Moves at a mightier Lord’s command.
He dreams not, he whose nod is death, Kar off, the Syrian hills amid,
There is a maid in Nazareth, In a poor joiner’s cottage hid,
For whom he sets his werld astir;
For Him that shall be born of her.
As stretch the spider’s radiant twines, So, from his throne of power and pride,
The®highwavs spread in thousand hnes To westand east, afar and wide;
And at their master beck ‘tis done;

W here sceptred satraps own his sway ; Where Danube’s fierce barbarians are,
Where Rhone and Rhine pursue their way ; To Spain and Britain sound the call, To Parthian’s East and Western Gaul.

Public Meeting at Fert Augustus.
AccORDING to previous notice a meeting of the electors of Fort Augustus, and ad- jacent settlements, was held at the Schoolhouse near Smith’s Corner, on Thurs- day evening the 16th inst. Lucius ©. Kelly Esq., presided.
Ropgert Saaw, Esq., one of the represen- tatives of the district who called the meet- ing, was the first to address the electors. He reviewed the acts and policy of the pre- sent Government since they came into power two years ago ; and very tersely as- serted his reasons for leaving the Govern- ment and joining the Opposition. He said for the first year after his election he was quite satisiied with the course the Sullivan Administration pursued, but since then owing to the unsystematic manner in which they pressed the Island claims to the Fish-
‘ery Award, their imposition of additional it taxes on
the rate-payers this year, and Hon. W. W. Suilivan’s cold indifierence to him he decided to sever his connection with him and joiu the Opposition. . Mr. Shaw highly eulogized L. H. Davies for his legal ability and accuracy. He said Hon. Mr. Sullivan also possessed rare and un- mistakeable legal acquirements. Both of these gentlemen as Attorney Generali, had given as their opinion that this Province was legally entitled to $1,250,000, as a just and equitable share of the Fishery Award. He believed that when the island was legaliy entitled to that amount, the proper course was to apply to the Dominion Court of Appesi, and exact our rights according to the due form of the law. This, the pre- sent administration had failed todo. Mr. Shaw censured the Goverfiment for issuing precepts from the Land Office against
LAr THAT PROPERTY KNOWN As#the poor tenantry and also condemned the
exorbitant compound interest system prac-
tised in that department. Mr. Shaw made
|a polished and spirited speech, but failed
to convince the electors that he had suf- ficient reason for leaving the Government.
Donatp D. McDonap, Eso., M, P., for the district, was the next speaker. He said he was returned to support the present Government, according to principles set forth in Hon. Mr. Sullivan’s Card to the electors ; and he had done so. He never had any reasons to warrant him in with- drawing his support. He believed the present administration were sincere in the interests of the people, and were practising pruedrce and economy in every depart- ment of the public service. And, so iong as they were doing so, he would give them his hearty support. Mr. McDonald then briefly referred to some of the leading acts of the present Government. He said be would leave Mr. Shaw to Hon, Mr. Fer- guson’s treatment. Mr. McDonald then
uested any of the electors present to slate ealeohaat as he would be very

|happy te hear any suggestions they might offer with regard to the locai wants or im- Peewee of the district. Mr. McDen- 'ald’s remarks were plain, simple and to the
point. How. D. Fercuson, being called wpoa, 'poxt addr vented the meeting, and vigorously
| defende «<l the present Government and (showed where th 1ey had economized in sev- ‘eral departinents, by the amalgamation of | offices and in the reduction of officials’ ‘salaries; and asserted that the Govern- | ment were using every legitimate means in (their power to induce the Dominion Gov- ernment to pay ws onr rights in the Fishery , Award, and then, if that failed, they had | the just bug unpleasant coursé of the law to ‘resort to. "He believed that when dealing with honest men, people often fared better by nct going to law. He said that owing ‘to the destruction of public propery by the ‘atorm in the Autumn ef 1879, the Govern- iment had to resort to a little additional taxation, in order to keep the revenue of : the Province within the expenditure. Con- ‘cerning the charges brought against the i Gov wnment with regard to the Land | Office, he, as head of that Department, was 1only following the judicious course of his | predecessor. He defied any man to show | where he had used harsh or oppressive measures against any tenant. Asa matter of fact, proceedings had not been taken against a single individual who had paid a
cent of either interest or principal within the past ten years. The mode of calculating interest in the Land Office was
the same as practised by successive adimin- trations since it was opened. An animated discussion then toek place between Mr. Shaw and Hor. Mr. Ferguson, in which a good deal of sarcasm was indulged in. Mr. Ferguson’s defense was conclusive. He fully rebutted every one of Mr. Shaw’s charges. Mr. Ferguson fully sustained his high and well merited reputation asa speaker and a politician.
Mr. Jas. H. Cummiskty offered a few curt and appropriate remarks ; after which the following reselution was proposed by Mr. Francis Quinn, senr., Monaghan, and seconded by Johnson’s River.
Resolved, That this meeting endorses the policy of the present Government, and disapprove of Mr. Shaw's conduet” in withdrawing his support from the party he was returned to support. Carried unaninous- ly.
A vote of thanks was then tendered to the Chairman for his proficiency in the chair, to which Mr. Kelly rephed in a snit- jable manner... ..-- m+
Messrs. Shaw and Ferguson then paid a hich tribute of respect to the large andience for their order and deportment. Both aflirmed that it was the most orderly and well eonducted meeting ever they had the pleasure of attending.

During the Caar’s s fecent journey frem Livadia, it is said that ten peasants and two soldiers were stationed as watchmen along each verst of the entite distesnce from Seb bastopol , waking a total of 36,000 men on foot, with 1.7000 mot These were on guard two days and a night, -therefore i¢ must be supposed that half were reliefs.
