The Ben, Forrest, from Sydney, reports having piloted the h \ r and gentlemanly tone of his communication. I wish 1 could say as much of some of the other members of the expedition. “ Sir L. be was a gallant knight; But for the other two, Sing cock-a-doodle, cock-a-doodle, cock-a-d _0er: Douse’s effusions (the greater part of which to do him justice, I really believe to be his own,) I mean td take but a very . tranSient notice. His intimate: acquaintance With the “glorious Will,” and with the “inimitable Jack,” (whom he accuses me so much of making the companions of my studies,) I must confess, surprises me a little, for he seems to have the faculty of calling up his men in buckram, upon the occasion, with the same ease as the valiant Knight himself“ This, perhaps, may be one of the advantages of hav1n(g a “ familiar” at one’s service. Of this gentleman I won] only remark, that I have not much taste for returning railing for railing, or abuse for abuse; but I must say, that whatever degree of excitement prevailed in this section of the country at the time the occurrence took place, which farmed the groundwork of this discussion, that it was much moi‘e owmg to his own indiscretion in publishing reports which he could not substanti ite, than to any influence pro- duced by the Governor’s letter; and nearly as much as to that produced by the letter of the Apostle of Escheat him- self And I leave your readers to judge, from facts attested by others, to which of us both do those gentlemanly epithets, of which he is so lavish, the more properly apply. It is true, that there is another Clergyman who occasionally visits this part of the country—perhaps once in two or three months, and then remains for a few days or weeks—but I believe I may still, without any great risk of‘incurring the charge of arrogance or exclusiveness, subscribe myself The only Clergyman resident within the bounds of the District. P. S.—When a boy at school (though I am still no great scholar), I was taught to distinguish between the terms Cartography and Cacoethes scribemli ,- but while I have known some smart fellows who were, at times, troubled with the latter, I thought the former a great deal more applicable to myself and some of my friends. oodle-doo ll!

That in, regard to any degree of excitement or agitation, which prevailed in the winter of 1838, this deponent never acknow- ledged himself, to Mr. Douse, to have been deluded o‘r deceived byany person or persons, and that he is not aware ofany other- of his neighbours having done so.
