\Vith the eloquent cucomiiims of our hberal contemporary we may class the eulogics which the Times Jiistly pronoun- ces upon the Duke’s benevolence and suiglenéss of purpose, as well as on the off-ability ofdemeanor'aiid agreeable talents by which he was distinguished. “These courtly Virtues,” says the writer, “ were, more than any political bias, calcu- lated to endear him to the British people. But their regard for him was cemented by ties more strong than these. He had identiﬁed himself by marriage with them. He had made himselfone ofthem. He had overstepped the barrier of an adsurd, impolitic and indefensible, 'but most stringent enactment, to unite his fortunes with these ofa British sub- ject—lie braved the i‘eseiiti'ncnt of tlieCi'own, lie risked the hereditary digiiities ofthc succession—in order to enjoy the blessings ofdomcstic peace with the daughter of a Britsh Peer. It was tliis‘bonest tribute to the natural supremacy of man’s best and purcst aﬂ'cctiOi’is—this noble contempt for the paltry etiquette oflloyal alliances—this constitutional vindication ofa civil right, in opposition to a Parliamentary prohibition—which earned for him that sympathetic favour which generally greeted him whercvcrlie went. And we afﬁrm, that on this account, ifon no other, he amply deser- ved his popularity. The Royal Marriage Act is an insult to the oommonalty, to the peerage, to the Majesty of this realm.” ' '

The eulogy, admirably deserved, and won even from a political adversary, thus concludes—“ How few men are there who, had they been born in his station, Would have led a blameless life? He was nota selﬁsh nora sordid man. He i'as not an epicurcan, nor a voliiptiiary, nor an egotist. He was a man who employed the faculties which his God had given him in promoting the physical comtbrts, the incu- tal improvement, and the social harmony of his fellow crea- tures. He did his best to premium the advancement oflearn- ing, the interests ofscienoc, and the welfare ofall who toil- ed their wearisome way 'in the museum, the studio, orthe la— horatory. And there are many now alive and prosperiiig, who, when they look back on their early struggles and their meridian labours, will bless the memory of the Duke of Sussex.”

The Duke ofSussex loved the Queen from her c‘hildhood with the fond aﬁ'ection ofa parent, and that love was mutual.

The situation ofthe Weeping exiles was before me, who were banished from the pleasures and applauSes of imperial Rome, and were sent to inhabit this dull and dis- tant region, with none to Converse with but sufferers iii the same calamities, whose vci'y attempts at consolation would only add still deeper sorrow.- What must they have felt, and how must they have wept, when they lielicld from the horizon the little speck that was to constitute their world? There was one among these exiles whose brow was calm, whose eye was bcdimmcd by no tear, and from whose coun- tenance seemed to beam the serenity ofa spirit in bliss. It was the beloved disciple oftl'io Lord. The banishment of the venerable apostle was from a cause perhaps different from that ofany ofthe exdcs who had preceded him, and it was “ for the word of God, and for the testimony ofJesu‘s Christ,” Rev. i. 9. Standing upon one ol'tlie einiiiences of the island, and turning towards the continent, St. John would be able to distinguish the mountains that might also be seen from the whole oftbe scvei‘i churches of Asm ; and as he had planted some ofthem with his own hand, and probably visited all dftheui, can we doubt he of- ten would stand thus, and looking towards these interesting spots, lift up his hands to heaven, and pour out his soul in prayer, that He who walked among the golden candlesticks would continue to visit them in mercy, and save them from the power oftl'ie Antichrist that was to come. It is one of those thoughts upon which the mind so much delights to dwell, that from this rock, surrounded only by other similar rocks and looking out upon distant mountains, there should have been an insight given into fiiturity further and clearer than in any other place was ever afforded unto mere man.— Hardy‘s .Notices of the Holy Land. CAUTIONS iN VISITING-SICK Rooms—Never ventureinto a sick room if you are in a violent perspiration (if circum- stances require your continuance there), for the moment your body becomes cold, it is in a state likely to absorb the infection, and give you the disease. Nor visit a sick person (especially ifthe complaint be ofa contagious nature) with an empty stomach, as this disposes the system more readily to receive the contagion. 1n attending a sick person, place yourselfwhere the air passes from the door or window to the bed ofthe diseased, not betwixt the diseased person and any ﬁre that is in the room, as the heat oftho ﬁre will draw the infectious vapour in that direction, and you will run much danger from breathing in it.

been so stated by Mr. Peters himself, and so far from know- iiig the statement to be “false,”'at thatime 1 spoke, lfirmly believe it still. The number of dish-aims in this neighbour. hood could not be ascertained by the Committee, but mom were known to have been issued than the “six” acknow- ledged by Mr. Peters, who should recollectthe legal maxim, falso in uno,falso in omnibus, l he bailiﬁ' dismictly stated to Mr. John McKie (my authority) and others, .01 New London, that he did not know the exact number ofdistrnints, butthat they could nonbo many short ofa hundred, and that none had been omitted Were it not by an overnight. '1 he sympa- thy which Mr. Peterl now ﬁnds it expedient to exprcu [or the tenantry is perfectly understood by all“ be a whimper. ing acknowledgment that he has 'been pulled from his “ high horse to his marrow bones,” a fact which affords the people m l ' instructive lesson ofthe wholesome effects otagitation,wuliout which important legislative measures are Seldom or never carried. No agent will venture to tell the people now, that they must ﬁnd him money, should they have to “rake Hell" for it. . . I notice Mr. Peters‘s insinuation, regarding my political i conduct in another Province, merely to say, that lie is one of the few persons on this Island who knew every iiisiiiuntion of the sort to be “false” (his own elegant phrasoology) ever since I arrived. His unfortunate Canadianullustration of“tbe “ dreadful consequences ofa people’s listening with too ready “an ear to the deimigogue,” is a sufﬁciently amusing dil- closure of his egregious ignorance of passing events in o neighbouring Province. 1 need not express an opinion of the manner in which the known loyalists of that Proving? have been treated; but it is mattcrofhistory, that the “clema- gogue” of 1839, by a turn of the political wheel, has been, in 1842, elevated into place and power, and the Imperial Go— vernmentrhas felt the expediency ot‘yieldiag to'“the denia- goguc” nearly all be ever demanded, after resisting those de- mands at a sacrifice of many valuable lives on each side, and the expenditure ofsevcral millions ofmoney. . ' Ifl be the individual who, be alleges, “breathed sedition," and endeavoured to “incite the people to insurrection,” I take leave to tell him, that he must either prove his assertion, or stand forth with the brand ofAnanias upon his brow. That assertion is either true or the reverse. Il'it be true, it ap~ pears to me that he has been guilty ofa dereliction of duty ;. hut ifit be “false,” he should have his gown stripped from his shoulders by the mandate of his Sovereign. That itio false, the frivilous pretext seized upon to commence a prose- cution for libel against me sufficiently proves; and I dare Mr. Peters to shew that l have ever proposed a greater change in this country than what is advocated by the Governor Ge— neral and present Parliament of Canada; because, had there been no leasehold tenure in that Province, in all moral proba- bility there would have been no rebellion. It is the duty'ofevery loyal subject to use his exertions to avert that result from thll Colony, by a change of tenure, before the allegiance of the people be shaken by a perpetuation ofthose measures which are so profitable to the Solicitor General, and a iewotherl, who wallow in prosperity, while the rest ofthe community is sunk in the deepest adversity. ‘ ‘

No other speech of Mr. Peters having been reported dur— the Session, his objectcvideutly has been to prejudice against me any Jury that may be summoned to try the aforesaid fri- vilous charge of libel, alleged to have [men committed about ' a month previously, in the fact of my having Carried a Relo~ lution which emanated from a meeting of my constituents to the Printing Ofﬁce, in obedience to another Resolution, the one for which the libel is laid not having, up to this hour, been published! ! l—an insane attempt to render despotism and tyranny triumphant in this Colony; but the instigator of the prosecution will ﬁnd (too late) that as Englishmen, upon a memorable precedent oflibcl, would not permit their liberty to be devoured by the lion; so, neither will their des- ccndants, in a more enlightened age, and in the freedom of . a transatlantic forest, sufferit to be trampled in the dust by the hoof of an ass. 7‘ ‘ ~ Your obedient servant,

THE LATEST BUBBLE. {From the London Globe.) The British—American Emigration and Colonization scheme I having ﬁgured in police reports and bankruptcy proceedings, Was on Monday night introduced to the notice of Parliament. 1n the House of Commons, the Lord Mayor drew the atten- tion of Lord Stanley, an Colonial Minister, to the case ofthe poor emigrants who were induced to embark for Prince Ed- ward Island by the specious prospects held out by this As— Iociation, and by the supposed security afforded by the names oftho Dukes, Marquises, Lords and Baroncts which 7 were aﬂixed to its prospectus, as vouchers for its integrity and stability. ‘ " The answer of Lord Stanley, in reply to the inquiry made by the Lord Mayor, went to exonerate the Government from 5‘- . ii all suspicion of having neglected its duty in the matter. The Emigration Commissioners iu‘structed Lieut. Lean, their -’ agent in the port of London, to institute the most searching inquiries into the condition ofthe vessel, and into tliequality ' and quantity oftlio provisions laid in for the emigrants on 1 board the Barbaddes. Remonstrances and warnings were usqu with the Association as to the danger ofundertaking the voyage at such a season. The emigrants Were also can- sal, ﬁrmed by the Government agent against embarking on a l f voyage so pregnant with danger. 'I‘licSe izeiiionstrmices aud , 6 Warnings were vain. The Company were too anxious lo get I» rid ofthe inconveniences which the alarmed apprehensions ofthe emigrants were continually bringing upon their scheme, r to allow the vessel to remain an hour longer than possible; and the poor creatures, who had embarked their all in the vessel, derived courage from despair, and resolved on brav- ing all dangers rather than allow the vessel to depart and leave them and their families homeless and destitute. The subsequent adventures ofthe vessel and its passengers—«the dangers they encountered in the Atlantic—their arrival at Cprk—ﬂheir detention in that port '—and their subsequent é return to London, with the seizure ofthe vessel by the mort- i gagec, and the consequent further development ofthe impli- deut and heartless frauds perpetrated by the managers of i this Association-are familiar to tho piihlic by means of the '/published reportsofthe investigations, which the Lord Mayor, V after the example of his predecessor, has instituted into the proceedings ofthis bubble-scheme.

Lord Stanley’s concluding remarks were conceived in a proper spirit ofindignation against the perpetrators of the fraud; and wore expressed in terms, the paiigcncy ol‘which

7 will, we trust, cause them to be felt by certain parties who V hays aided the baud by their names, but have shown a most . criminal disinclination to make reparation to the sufferers.

Han MAJESTv’s BIII'rn-Dn.—Wedncsday last being the Anniversary ofHer Majesty’s Birth-day, precisely at 12,0’clock a Iloval Salute was ﬁred from a ﬁeld-piece planted near the Barrack-gate in honor oftbe occasion. At the same time, “ﬂu, dejaie was fired by the Detachment ofthc Riﬂe Bri- ‘gadc stationed in this Garrison, iiiidertlic command ofCapt. Capel, which was reviewch by His Excellency the Comman- der in Chief, on Rochford Square. His Excellency expressed hin'iselfliighly gratified with the ﬁne, soldierly appearance ofthe troops, and the prompt and orderly manner in which they went through their several evolutions.

At Two o’clock, His Excellency held a Levee at Govern- ment House, which was attended by the various Heads of Departments, Ofﬁcers of the Garrison and Militia, and a number of other gentlemen.

,.

A Gazelle Extra was issued on Saturday last, containing an Order of His Excellency the Lieut Governor, to the effect, that upon the late melancholy occasion of the death of Ilys latc Royal Highness the Duke of SUSSEX, Her Majesty 3 Uncle, itvis expected that all persons do pay themselves into decent Mourning, for Ten days, commencmg from Sunday last.

THE VVEATIIER, {km—The present Spring has, perhaps, been one ofthe ﬁnest and most favorable for agricultural operations perhaps ever known in thislsland. The groin crops have all been sown in fine condition, and at least a fortnight earlier than usual. The late scasonablc and abun- dant rains, too, appear to have had a magic effect on the. prospects ofthe farmer, and we trust, by the blessuig of Providence, to be favoured with an early and abundant har- vest.

\Ve regret, however, to state,that much damage has been sustained by many iiidusti-ioua individuals, in various direc- tions, from the prevalence of large fires in the woods,-wliicli, from the dryness ofthe season, had, pi'eVious to the late Ico- pious rains, been raging to an alarming extent, but which, we trust, are now completely extinguished. \

'l‘hc Shipyard of Angus lllacdonald E>q., Lot 54, was destroyed by fire, on \Velnesday the 17th instant, with nearly. all ,ih‘e Timber, Plank, Sheds, 65c, withinit. The Houses wuh dilli- culiy were saved. r

The Born of Mr. Thomas Dollard, Princetown Road, with a quantiiy of unthrcshed wheat and implements, have been enircly consumed.

’ The house of a poor man named Munro, on the same road, with all its contents, are said to have shared the same fate.

THE POST OFFICE HUMBUG.—It appears, from the follow- ing paragraph, which We copy from last Tuesday’s Gazette, that our country fi'iends are still to be subjected to the half- penny tax exclusively imposed on Island Newspapers—the Acting Deputy Post Master General at Halifax being deter- mined to render himself, if possible, still more odious to all who, may come within the sphere of his inﬂuence. It does, however, appear to us rather odd. that any one person, what— ever his rank or station in society may be, should be invested with more extensive inﬂuence and by far more despotic pow- ers than the Governor General himself, with all the Lieu- tenant Governors, Councils and Assemblies of British North America to boot—that, in fact,. this high and mighty functionary can, with impunity, at any time, set at defiance the suggestions and recommendations of Governors and Colonial Legislatures, just as it may suit his own Caprice! Here is a purely local tax, levied . on all Island Newspa iers—-for be it remembered, this 1 arrangement extends i0 no others—forwarded through NEWL‘m‘l‘m: 12th may, 1843- tho Post Office to the country districts of this Island, and levied, too, be it further remembered, not by the 'D. P. M. General, as -in the other Colonies, for his own special benefit, but by, the Executive of this ,Colony, towards defraying the expenses ofthe Inland Mails; the House of Assembly recommend the removal of this tax, pledging themselves at the same time to provide, as usual, for all the expenses attending ‘the transportation of these Mails; and the Executive instructs the Postmaster here to give imme- diate effect to this recommendation. It appears, however, notwithstanding all this, that the authority by ‘which the tax was originally imposed is not now sufﬁcient to affect its removal. To attain this object, the consent ofthe I). P. M. General must be obtained, and that consent is, for reasons best known to himself, at present, withheld!

We regret to ﬁnd that the cxaction of Postage on Newspapers forwarded lino the country, which we hoped from the .remon- sirauce oftlic House of Assembly, and sanction of the Lieutenant Governor, would have been discontinued, has not been acceded to by the Deputy Post Master General at Halitax. ,VVe shall therefore l'oivihe pieseuidevisc some other means oftransmitting our papers, rather than subject our subscribers to the payment of a tax which is not authorized by any lava—Caz.

His LATE noun HIGHNESS 'rns DUKn or sussax. I The death oftho Duke ofSussox appears to have created : in‘evei‘y quarter where the intelligence of that melancholy event has become known a feeling of profound regret—— sorrow lar more real than that which often waits upon the demise of princes. The Journals most opposed to the Li- beral politics of his Royal Highness express this morning, i with the exception of a detracting allusion here and therie, which may well be passed over, the highest respect for the ,Duke’s amiable and independent character, and a becominv estimation of his scholarship and attainmenth U .Seldom have eulogies been better deserved, and the highest and most lavish is not too much to bestow upon that f , feature of his Royal Highness’s character which, not except- ing perhaps his devotion to the interests ofscience, litera- ture, and general charity, was most steadily sigiializeil; we meanthc independence with which he maintained his opi- nions in adverse times, in opposition to almost every personal ti‘e,‘and every inﬂuence of courtly association. llroni the ﬁrst appearance ofthe Duke in public life, he , was “uncompromising ndeCnte of tlie‘principles of civil and religious liberty. It was his boost in after times, that A in 17927—that trying period when the alarm created by t 1 events In France divided the Wigs, and obtained for the ' Mimstry.‘the support ofEarl Fitzwilliam and a number of pdnstinguislied Peers and Commoners—he remained true to his party, and that he had never afterwards abandoned the cause Wliibb’seated his family on the throne oftheso realms. “.My_ family” he said, “ came to the throne on the principles oftho Revolution—4m the principle ofn full, free andlair representation of the people.” He became more; dectded and distinct in his views as be advanced in years. The abolition ofthe slave trade—Catholic emancipation— the removal of the civil disabilities ofthe Dissenters and of tho Jews—Parliamentary Reform—the amelioration of the crnninallaw—the promotion ofeducation, and the advance- ment ofwliatever might tend to elevate the character ofthe people—were all subjects which received from him steady, continuous, and availing support. In 1812, he supported, 4 by unable speech, the motion of the Marquis VVellesloy, ‘ fertile-removal of the politicnldisabilities of the Roman Catholics. In 1815 began the war of the landowners against the rest , ofthe community. His Royal Highness, who always felt ‘ for his countrymen, was strongly opposed to the Corn Bill, and in 1816 he signed a celebrated protest against it, drawn up by Lord Grenville. He took an active part in the discusswiis on Parliamentary Reform, during the agitation which followed the fall ofthe Duke ofWellinrrton’s Administration, and the accession ofthe “Reform Miiiistry” I to ofﬁce; was the medium of presenting important petitions E from corporate bodies, as from the Corporation of London. 9 6am; and in the debate on the lrish Church Temporalities’ ‘ . Bill, in 1833, he declared his opinion, that “ to support the ' testant interest is to show the most perfect toleration to ' cm, for the essence of Protestantism is the right of pri- judgment, and complete freed cm of conscience.”

BRITISH AMERICAN ASSOCIATION.—1l appears that our contemporaries have at last discdvercd that there is in reality something rotten in the constitution—if indeed it ever had one—of this famous Association, which was to ‘ have effected such wonders for our poor little Island. Much to their chagrin, no doubt, as well as that of many others, they are now compelled to relinquish all those pleasing antici- pations, so long and so fondly cherished, of superabundant prosperity from the operations ofthis Association.- For our- selves, we certainly had our doubts of the feasibility of the plan from the very ﬁrst moment we heard the subject moot- ed—tlie grandeur ofthe scheme quite bewildered our weak faculties l—and when we ventured to give insertion in our co- lumns to the proceedings which took place before the Lord Mayor ofLondon in the celebrated Barbadoes affair, and occa- sionally gave the opinions of some of the leading Journals of Europe on the same subject, we Were by some persons almost looked upon as traitors to our country—as persons who most strangely and unaccountany wished to throw ob- stacles in the way oflhe establishment ofan institution which was in their estimation to be the salvation ofour country, and were treated by them accordingly. We trust, however, that it will now he admitted that our suspicions were not altogether groundless, and that the course we pursued was at least as independent, and quite as likely to promote the in- terests of the inhabitants of the Colony generally, as that pursued by those who have evidently been somewhat more easily gullcd than we were, in the present instance, inclined to be. In conclusion, we beg to refer our readers, for further particulars, to an article from the London Globe, which will be found in a previous column. '
