- The Wind was fi'om the south-west, which drove the burn— ing cinders, &c. into the Open ﬁelds in the rear ofFort Howe, and did not endanger the safety Of property so much as would have been the case had the wind been from any other quarter. One building, however, in that district, the old gun house on Fort Howe, took ﬁre from Cinders falling upon it, and was consumed in a few minutes.

The number ofbuildiugs destroyed cannot be less than sixty, and among them were many large three and four story heuscs, several newly erected dwelling-houses, and a Wes— leyan Methodist Meeting House. There was also consumed ——-;a superior vessel of about 900 tons, ready for launching, together with all their ship-building tools, implements, Soc. belonging to Messrs. Owens &. Duncan, on which, we regret to learn, there was no insurance. The Meeting House. was insured for £600, and taking the remaining houses generally, we believe we are safe in saying that the amount of insurance effected is comparatively nothing. The the Companies, with their engines, axes, Sun, from the City, were present, as were also the ofﬁcers and men of the 36111 Regiment, and the Royal Artillery, together with Lieut. Elliott and the 3 gallant tars from Her Majesty’s Brig Racer——all of whom were most active to save property and prevent the extension a ofthe ﬂames. ’The want ofa sufficcncy of water was felt during thewliole afternoon, the tide being out at the time.

Tearing down houses was resorted to at last, as a means of putting a stop to the progress of the element, and herein the ofﬁcers and men of Her Majesty’s Brig Racer shone conspi— cuously. ,

PRINCE EDWARD ISLAND.

HE Cunard‘Atlantic Steamers having commenced plying between Liverpool, England.and Halifax, Nova Scotia, :1 new era is formed in the History of the North American Colonies. This expeditious mode nfconvevance will, doubtless. bring to their shores a number of individuals in search of health-ful and fertile locations; and the Advertiser, therefore, solicits such persons, having agricultural ’views. to visit Prince Edward Island. so justly styled by writers “The Granary of British North ﬂmcrica.” It is situated in the Gulph of St. Law- rencc. and is‘onlvtwo davs’ travel by Coach and Steamboat from Halifax, N. S. This Colony, with respect to'salubrity Ofelimate, fertility ofsoil, and excellent waters. is second to few, if any, in the British Dominions. The capitalist who determines on emi- grating, mny here purchase Wilderness lands from 15s. in 25s. per acre: or improved Farms. in different sections of the Island, at from £9 to £6 per acre, according to situation. and the value of the Buildings erected upon the property. Island produces nearly all kinds of grain, hay and vegetables; and cattle, as well as agricultural implements. suitable t'o‘the Colony, can be obtained at moderate prices. There are twelve Agricultural Societies, established within the last few years, actively employed in introducing from different countries the most, improved breeds of Live Stock, Agricultural Implements, &c. suitable for tho. farmer. ’

. To the Emigrant, even though but asmall capitalist, Prince Edward Island offers many advantages z—Firs’t. its general pros-l parity, which is Sllmﬂlr’ntl}“ proved by the increase of its ex- ;ports, and its steadiliy improving revenue. Second, aliealthy climate. Third. a plentiful supply ofanod water throughout the wholelsland. Fourth, the fertility of the soil. and its freedom from all taxes, burtliensome to the Settler. Fifth, the. convenience .ofsettlement, whereby the ruinous expenses which are some— of miles, after‘ landing, to a place of location. are almost totally avoided. Sixth, :1 certain remuneration for the labours of the Agriculturist, by a, sure market, and a fair price, for all the surplus produce of. his farm. Seventh, the labourerreadilv meets with employ- ment, and receives liberal wages. Eightli,to the British Emi- grant it offers the enjoyment of the beneﬁts to be derived from the laws, language, customs and manners Of his native land; and he preserves in. himself an identity ofinternst with that of 'the parent state.
