CHALMEas AND THE DIVINITY PROFESSOR- smr or GLAsoow;—What will Glasgow—what whole learned world say, if this illustrious man shall find the gates of a University which his very presence would illustrate and elevate, shut against nm ? We put the case not as a thinu which it would be fair or reasonable towards the Electors to contemplate, but merely as' a supposition which may give all concerned an opportunity of consider- mg how it would revolt the public mind. But Dr. Chalmers isalready a Professor of Divinity, and in the Metropolitan university—why bring him to Glasgow? That is a question, one should think, for Edinburgh, and for Dr. Chalmers himself, but in which Glasgow need have nothing to do. If Glas- gow can acquire such a man, it is not for the elec- tors to complain that Edinburgh is not preferred. But we meet the question at once with a very plain and snnple statement: with talents which, in any other profess1on, would easily have secured the most ample remuneration, Dr. Chalmers, to the disgrace of the country of which he is the chief ornament, and to which he has been a most signal blessing, has been allowed to starve upon a pittance which many of our mercantile establishments would think barely sufficient for one of their book—keepers. Few, it is true, are aware of this discreditable fact; and why? because his high mind and disinterested spi- rit have never suffered him to complain. To his office as Professor of Divinity in the University of Edinburgh, there is attached, nominally, a salary of £196. Of this salary, small as it is, owing to the state of Edinburgh’s city affairs, we believe We are correct in stating, that for many years he received not a single farthing; and that to this hour he has received only a. trifle so small as to be scarcely worth naming at all. It is well known the chainin the Glasgow University, though by no" means richly en- dowed, is at least so provided as to furnish some- thing like a fitting maintenance to the man who dis- charges its onerous and important duties. This Uni- versity has now, therefore, the singular felicity of being able, by electing Dr. Chalmers, to confer lus- tre and prosperity upon itself, and at the same time to do an act of justice which will take away a re- proach from Scotland—Scottish Guardian. ' DEATH OF PRINCESS AUGUSTA. The PrIflCHSS Augusta expired at 17 minutes past 9 o‘clock on the night ofthe 22d September, at Clarence- house, St. James‘s, after a long and very trying illness, which her Royal Highness bore with the utmost patience and meekness. Her royal liighness was in her 72.1 year, having been born on the 8th November, 1768. She was the SIXlll the Third and child and second daughter of George Queen Charlotte. The event of the Princess Augusiu's birth gave the corporation of the city of London an opportunity of approaching his Majesty George the III., which they (lid with it better grace than on some preceding occasions, steering clear of political :iniinad- versions, and confining themselves to the gratulations on the happy event, mingled with becoming loyalty, a circumstance which iiliordod the King great satisfaction. as was iniirkcd by the manner in which he received and answered their address zit the levee. The sweet temper and ninimble ilisposilion of her roynl liiglincss, both in childhood and after life, made her at all times a favourite: with the. various branches of the royal family; and during the unhappy differences which omsted between George IV. and Queen Caroline, when the princess royal was married to the King of \Vll'tvl’nblll‘g, the Princess Augusta was called upon to preside \Vllil his majesty at the levees and drawing rooms. \Villiin a few weeks ofher dozith she pri-senlc-l all her domestics, who Were much attached to her royul highness, with a Copy of her portrait, as the lust acknowledgment which she should make of their attentions. Connected with thi- event of her royal higlinoss‘s birth, amidst the usual reception of the public to royal mike and caudle on Sunday,tl1e 13th November, a curious incident occurred at the palace. Two young Indies, having drunk plcn- tifully ofcniiille, were detected in carrying off a large quantity ofcsike, and some of the (mps in which the candle had bcen served. They were allowed. however, to escape with a severe reprimand, after bogging pardon on their knees for so disgraceful an act. It is generally understood that her royal liiglincss made ii will prevuuisly to lierillnoss coming to the worst. The bulk of her property the princess ILIS left to the children ofthe King of Hanover and the Duke of Cambridge; and the re- mainder has been divided as legacies among her attend— ants and domestics, 'not one of whom, it is said, has been omitted. ller royal lligllncss also, a few diiys before .bcr decensc, sent tokens of remembrance to illlwtlle branches ofi’ie royal family. , ' r g.

O'FERRALL. . _ The high respect and affectionate regard in which the late Princess Augusta was held by all classes throughout Windsnr and ii neighbourhood, is evident, from the manifestations o regret at her royal highness’s decease which are visible at every turn. The whole ofthe shops In the town are partially closed, and 'all the .PI'lVil-IG houses, both in Windsor and its immediate locality, dis- play a similar feeling of respectful attachmeni towards the memory of the illustrious deceased. Hundreds in this town, who have long looked up to the late Princess Allyn“, for the principal means of support in their uflictionl and necessities, Will deeply have to deplore her.

By the Cape Breton, steamer, which arrived last Monday morning, we have received Lon- don papers to the 3d inst. The mail Was brought to Halifax by the Acadia Steamer, which arrived there on Thursday, in eleven days from Liverpool. The first division of the Chinese expedition had arrived at their destination, and the work of devas- tation had commenced. The great city of Canton, it appears, is doomed to destruction.

OCT. 17.—Upon the arrival of the Acadia, ouThursday evening, the Nova Scotia Philan- tr0pic Somety assembled at Dalhousie College and proceeded to Cunard’s Wharf, headed by the Presi— dent, Hon. J. L. Starr, and oflicers of the Society, to present a costly set of elegant colors to that vessel, which had been procured by a subscription of the members of the society. They were received by the Hon. Mr. Cunard, who expressed much satis- faction at receiving such a flattering testimonial of his fellow townsmen’s regard—Recorder. Since the arrival of the last Packet, a report has yobtained very current circulation in Charlottetown, that a gentleman in this Island, an extensive pro- prietor of lands here, had received a circular com- munication from the Colonial Department, that Her Magesty’s Government were about to institute pro- ceedings for the immediate establishment of a Court of Escheat in this Colony. We have been kindly favoured with a perusal of the document which, it appears, has given rise to the report alluded to. It is, in fact, no more than a copy of a private com- munication from Mr. B. Vernon Smith, Under Secre- tary of the Colonial Department, addressed, at the instance of Lord John Russell, to William Waller, Esq., Honorary Secretary of the P. E. Island Asso- ciation, wherein he informs Mr. Waller, that as the proprietors, since the rejection of the terms offered to the tenantry through the agency of Mr. George R. Young, have evinced no disposition to come to an equitable arrangement with the tenantry, it is the intention of his Lordship to direct his efforts towards an amicable and final settlement of the question; and with that object in view, that he intends to re- sort to the expedient upon aformer occasion alluded to, viz. the consideration of the question whether a penal tax, at a much higher rate than that now im- posed, should not be levied; and that, unless the proprietors have anything to suggest which they think more equitable than a heavy tax on wild land, accompanied by a penalty of forfeiture for non-pay- merit, proceedings to that end will be immediately instituted.

It would appear, Sir, that many thus assemble for the sake of an idle gossip— and others, doubtless, that they may have an opportu- nity of gazing on those who decently and devoutly pass on to the House of God. ‘ I trust, Sir, that I may not be considered too censor- ioiis in these remarks. Such a practice, is certainly not in accordance with the injunction of the Apostle -—“ Let all things be done decently and in order.” Yours, die. x ALIQUIS. ENTERED: Schr.
