Your committee are of opinion that the origin of this excess of population must be traced back as far as prior to the year 1745; that it originated in the feudal - system which existed at that time, when the proprietors were accustomed to value their estates according to the amount of their population, and the number of men whom they could bring into the field; this led to the mi- nute subdivision of lands, and to the croft system, which was maintained up to a- late period in those dis- tricts, by the full employment which the people received from the manufacture of kelp, as Well as by an occa- sionally abundant herring fishery, which the coast at one time afforded, and for the encouragement of which considerable bounties were awarded by Parliament. Most of those reisources have now 4. This excess ofpopulation was further maintained, and its tendency to increase confirmed, by the practice of the Government, of raising large bodies of volunteers and feucibles, and by the consolidation of farms in the interior of the country, which had the efi‘ect of remo- , where they subsistence, either by ring the people from the gleus to found it more easy to obtain a fishing or in the manufacture of k 5. Your committee also find it stated that the defi- ciency ofeducarion has tended to perpetuate this evil as want of knowledge of the he ignorance of the people in made them unable to estimate the advan- tage it would be to them to seek for employment where they might find a better market for their labour. The want of roads, also, in some districts ofthe country, by which the people are prevented from reaching a better market for their produce, has been stated as a further of excessive population, English language, and t other respects, v. unseat the general distress. 6.

This last has been the, exalted and Wise course pursued by the Romans and by this countryt and we now find a violent and reckless effort about to be the community, to breach, overthrow, and dissrpatethts noble structure, by a flood of crude, untried, and vrsron- ary theories. In regarding our colonies are Should look to a market for our‘own produce, a source of stea- dy and fair supply; for such these colonies yield a nu'r- 597? rm 0'" navy, and employment for our seamen in need; such as ive received from India in our operatiOnS agaiusrthe French in Egypt. As friends and fellow- subjects we naturally and justly expect that the Canal- dians and other inhabitants of British North America, the East and West Indians, and the Australians, shall give cur manufactures and products the preference to those of other powers; nor are our fair expectations In this respect disappointed. Our North American Colo~ nies, with a hundred part ofthe population, and we may add, the wealth ofthose states whose commerce finds an outlet through the Baltic, takes from us a quantity very little less than they do in our West Indian Colonies; oftrifliug extent and ofa population less than a million. they find a market for our goods greater and more profit- able than that afi'orded by the illimitable extent, and nu- merous population of South America. With such facts before their eyes, these infatuated men propose to sacri- Russia, Prussia, and Sweden, and the interests ofthe su- gar growers of the West Indies to those of Brazrl, Columbia, and ofthe Spanish, French, and Dutch colo- nies, who, it must be borne in mind, would as soon yield us their life’s blood as, in the slightest degree, relax in our favour the griping illiberality oftheir fiscal system. We unfortunately have, front time to time, had too much reason to complain of the avowed views, the undisguised feelings, and the actual conduct ofthe United States, and it is ofthe utmost importance to retain the inhabitants ofour North American colonies in a state of cheerful alle- giance, and to have the military force there so disen- gaged, that we could at any time march our conquering army into the heart ofthe territory of our aspiring and encroaching neighbours. How then do our ministers propose to effect this desirable consummation by loading timber, the staple, and in fact the only produce oftheso Provinces with an additional tat: of 105., or just 10s. per cem- increase on "If" at present levied, whilst. the duty 0“ Baltic llmbel‘ is to be favoured with a reductioti of5s. Now it should be remarked that this must ultimately act as an absolute prohibition on the importation of Ameri- can timber, as it is obvious that the importation of so bulky an article, transported three thousand miles across the Atlantic, can never be brought into successful com- petition with that which has only to be conveyed seven or eight hundred miles across the German Ocean. Far- ther, no trade of the same amount employs so many ships and so great a number of sailors. Twelve Initi- dred ships, and nearly twenty thousand men, employ- ed in this trade, form a truly important element in our nautical strength, and. such seamen, not educated or practised in any pedlar coasting trade, but ever busy in bufi'eting the stormy waves of the Atlantic. Yet it is certain that ifministers carry this their rickety project, the capitalists engaged in the timber trade of North America are doomed to inevitable bankruptcy; their ships to rot in our havens, or be broken up its lumber, and nearly twenty thousand sailors, in their proper de- partment, the glory and strength ofBritain, to be thrown out ofcmployment, a helpless and pitiable burthen on the over-loaded resources oftheir country. Such must be the inevitable result, as the carrying trade of the Baltic timber must inevitably fall into the hands of the Prussians and neighbouring powers, since it is notorious that, from the cheapness of timber, the abundance and excellence of their iron and copper, and the low price of labour, they can build and navigate ships at a for lower rate than the British—London Colonial Observer. Y (From the London Times.) We now come to the speech of Mr. Roebuck, suspect, will be a much more important person in House ofCommons than he has ever been before. man of talent and energy—one who does not adopt a revo- lutionary cry for party purposes, or for the sake of salary and place, but who advocates revolution upon principle. If, as may be anticipated, the \Vhigs in opposition should find that they have no chance of regaining power except by becoming Radicals, this is the man who, at no distant period, will become their leader. Once embarked in the same course of politics, John Arthur Roebuck will twist Lord John Russell round his little finger: and as tbr Lord Pal- merston, Heaven help him! he will have to go to school again, and learn his political alphabet. Mr. Roebuck knows what he is about, and where he is going to, which the Whigs do not. The first thing we have to do, in criticizing this speech, is an act of justice-namely, to state that Mr. Roebuck dis- avost the placard Lupon which we have commented more than once) in whic he was represented as offering to relieve the people frotn the national debt by the summary process of the sponge. Mr. Roebuck disuvows, not only the placard, but its principle. It is, of course, unnecessary for us to state, that our information concerning this placard Was derived from a source which we supposed to be credible ; no: Were we aware that it had been contradicted till we read Mr. Roebuck’s speech in a Government paper on Thursday last. There is nothing in the hon. gentleman’s political creed which could have led us to regard his adoption of such a placard as at all improbable or inconsistent. Mr. Roebuck’s view ofthe present position of Ministers is worthy ofgrcat attention. He considers them its having abandoned the doctrine offinulity, and determined to enter- upon acourse of (what he would call) progressive reform : in fact, as having come round, in principle, to his own opi- nlons. “They were now,” he said, “turning their faces toward the people, in whose fiivour they had proposed two or three measures as an earnest only of what they would (lo—as a small commencement of the great work which they had undertaken, fiir tfflwy stayed there, they could not hope to bring back the people to them. Under the banners of the ilinistry the people would fight against their enemies—the Tories; but they must be steadily, completely, heartily, the people’s friends.” He then proceeded to chalk out the line of opposition which it would, in hisjudgment, be necessary to adopt after the accession of Sir Robert Peel to power, and the leadino measures which the Whigs must advocate, in the following‘ remarkable passages :——- ° “He asked of those who were now th Crown, and who might not be so two mo with him while he pointed out to them they mut pursue if they wished to gai They must go on in the path which they Tories must be put down everywhere—n not by any pretended fear of them, for mice of the people, and as such must be put down.” 4‘ The church was theirs, for they made it. It was their servant fin- bad purposes ; but it must be made a national Church, and not a church fir any sec! or, party.” “ They must unite all the sects of the country, not into one belief, for that could not be, but under one aw, equally good for all.

Extract of a letter from Corfu, in the Malta Times: “Corfu, June, 23.—Sir Howard Douglas took his de- parture in the Ionian steamer on the 16th.

On deliver-trig the Government into the hands of his Excellency the Right Hon. J. A.

LYNCH Lawn—The Cincinnati Gazette publishes a letter, dated ut Willinmstou, Kentucky, June 11, which states that on the preceding day Liman Couch and Smith Maytbe, who were in jail on the charge of cutting the throat of a man named Uriel-back, were forcibly taken fi'om the jail by a mob offi'om four to seven hundred men, at12 o’clock, conveyed to the place where Utterback was found, and at 4 or 5 o’clock they were hanged, and subsequently buried on the spot. The following letter, from an eye witness, is published by the Cincinnati Chronicle: “The citizens of this country, with a few exceptions, took no part. I, myself, took none ; only 1 endeavoured to save Couch; but the mob were deufto all entrcatics, as they re- fused to hear anything that might be said either to the sanc- tity ofthe law, or anything that could be said in favour of giving the culprits any further- time to prepare for that cruel deaths. Both of the robbers confessed the crime of robbing Utterback and having cut his throat; but made no further confessions. Couch declared under the gallows that this crime was the only one he had ever committed, and called God to witness the truth of what he said. Maytlie said that all he had stolen would not amount to more than $250, and called on his maker to witness the same. They were attended to the place ofexecution by a minister of the Gos- pel, who performed his duty in a very solemn manner by sup- plicating the Throne of Grace in their behalf Couch ap- peared much affected, and talked of his wife anti children in u very affectionate manner, and then prayed to his maker to give him forgiveness for all his crimes, and said he was pre- pared to meet the fate that awaited him. Maythe said that he was not prepared, and earnestly requested further time to prepare himself, as he belived there was ajust God that would punish his creatures for all their crimes, and prayed the mob to give“ him until Monday, to prepare his mind for the fate that awaited him, but they refused. The mob then took them to the gallows, and after May the and Couch‘shook hands, saying they hoped to meet in a better world, they were banged up. Couch suffered but a short time but Maythe suffered very much. ’ NB. The names of most of the mob can be ascertained, and l have no doubt, the court will be compelled to have all those that were concerned indicted.” A MAN CAST Awav.—We have just arrived from the Fplls, (yesterday, 5 RM.) whither we Went yesterday mor- ning, per cars, on learning that a man was cast away on one of the Three Sisters islands, situated in the rapids}, jUSt above thqu‘alls, and that all efi‘orts'to rescue him were as aegrléllq-XZISIXEU.
