STATE OF THE REVENUE—LARGE INCREASE.

We are at liberty to make the following statement of the) Receipts at the Treasury from the Ist February, 1857, to the | 3ist July, 1857, as compared with the corresponding period of | the year 1856 :—

A STANDING LIE REFUTED.

Wuew the Islander fabricates a small charge against a/ political opponent, and finds that it can be published some | twenty or thirty weeks in succession without contradiction, there is no doubt that it will stick to the lie for ever after, if the party belied does not choose to contradict and expose it. For more than six months the changes have been rung. through the columns of the Islander, every week, on the silly and contemptible charge, that Mr. Coles pocketed £15 for an inspection of Fyffe's Ferry Bridge. Now, although Mr. Coles does not suffer from the calumny, for the public do not place any reliance upon the Js/ander’s allegations either against the Colonial Secretary or the Government—the gullible readers of that paper may escape the infliction of having the same story told to them fifty-two times every year, by our stating, once for all, that the Public Accounts do not show that Mr. Coles ever received fifteen pounds, or even fifteen pence for

any such service. The £15 referred to, were paid, partly to | London.

Miscou Island to Traccady was strewed with the wrecks, the dead and the wounded, Late last evening one of my neighbours returned from Pokemouche, where he had interred his brother, who was capsized in Shippagan Gully ; his comrade was immediately found near the boat, but this man’s brother was found at Green Point, between Pokemouche and Traceady,a distance of about twelve miles from the place of the disaster. From his mouth I tcok a list of those actually known to be drowned, to-wit, Fifieen belonging to Caraquet, Nineteen to Shippegan, and Four to Pokemouche.

It is impossible at present to make even a vague calcula- tion of the Joss of lives or of property, but when the number of boats belonging to this and the neighbouring harbours | exceed four hundred, each about twenty-six feet keel, and costing about fifty pounds when new, fit for sea, with their nets, lines, &c., the loss in a pecuniary point of view will be great ; but that is nothing to the enormous loss of life and the number of families left destitute.

The Honorable Robert Gordon, M. D., went through this settlement on his way to the Lazaretto in Traccady on

| Tuesday, intending to return on Thursday. He is not yet

come, and I expect he remains there to administer assistance to the wounded that have been picked up.—-New Brunswicker. ESE

THE STEAMER WESTMORLAND.

« Twe Tory party, headed by the Js/ander, their organ, have taken a fancy for decrying the new steamer Westmorland, and by dark allusions to the unfortunate Fairy Queen, have sought to awaken public distrust in this admirable and fast-sailing vessel. Envy of a stranger—disappointment of a Tory friend

PUBLIC OPINION IN KING’S COUNTY.

tour through a large section of King’s County — attending in the course of our rambles no fewer than seven public meetings in the Second Electoral District. It would not be good taste in us to allude particularly to the opinions expressed at those meetings in reference to the members for the District. Suffice it to say, that the Liberal cause is in good keeping in the Second District, and that the Tory party might as well think of scooping out St. Peter’s Bay as of converting that unflinch- ing District to the purposes and designs of Toryism. We visited, also, in our tour, portions of the First and Third Dis- tricts; and judging from al] we have seen and heard, we are confident that at the next general election Liberal principles will be triumphant throughout King’s County, from one end to the other. The County is well prepared to return ten staunch Liberals—the whole ticket—at the next election. —_—_——€_—SXS!

Tue Crors.— Wheat—Our anticipation of the destruction of this grain has been fatally realized. In so far as we can learn, it rales from an estimate of half a crop on some farms down to a total loss on others, the whole not averaging so much as a quarter crop.

Barley has also been attacked by the wheat-midge, which in one respect resembles the people of this Island. It prefers wheat, but if it cannot be got, it will, in hard times, take barley. The barley is not so much hurt as the wheat, but still it is injured.

Oats, where they did not fail in the Spring, will, we think, be a full average. ;

Hay cuts much lighter than we expected it would, and will hardly be average.

TERRIFIC GALE AT THE NORTH, AND FEARFUL LOSS OF LIFE.

We have been favoured with the following extract of a — ye for eat in the Miramichi Gleaner by LACKHALL, Esq., of Caraquet, dated Saturday, July, 25th, but which was received rk late for inanstion in ‘he last number of that paper. Caraquet is situated near the entrance of the Bay of Chaleur, which divides the Northern part of New Brunswick from the extreme Eastern portion of Canada, and is famous for the extent and value of its fisheries. We deeply regret to hear of such a fearful sacrifice of human live. So far as is known no less than thirty-eight lives have been lost, and we have too much reason to fear that the uumber will be greatly augmented.

THE SKIN.

Is formed with thousands of pores inevery inch of surface whose office it is to carry off the impurities of the blood—the acknowledged cause of all diseases of mankind—when the skin is dry and parched, when it is covered with eruptions—when it is cold aud clammy—when there is inward fever or-inflammation—it is impossible for the skin under these circumstances to perform its proper functions and to carry off the im- purities from the body as designed by our Creator.

Morse’s Indian Root Pills remove these obstructions, and produce free and healthy blood, remove the eruptions from the skin, and cause it to brighten with the flush of youth and beauty. Beauty so much admired and loved. Beauty without paints and cosmetics—but beauty produced by health and happiness.

That trial being now over, it is my intention to offer myself at the next yearly Election, or sooner, if circumstances should cause the retire- ment of one of the Councillors in your Ward, and I pled myself not to be persuaded or deterred from going to the poll, let the number of candidates be ever so numerous.
