Joining the National Gallery, by, means of false keys, jltqlh articles the value of which is’estimated at from fourteen Jail/Yam thousand dollars. The articles stolen were an ele- gant gold snufl" box set with diamonds, said to is worth {him three to five thousand dollars, which had been presen- ( ted-by the Emperor Alexander, of Russia, to -Mr. Harris, whtje he was ambassador to that Conn, and which'was de— - ’ posited in the archives of the State Department by John Q. _ of): Adams, Whilst he was President. ' " " They. also took the pearl necklace, Which was presented ,to our Government some two or three years since by. the Emperbr of Muscat, valued at several thousand dollars, though not considered worth as much as the snuff box. ‘ " '. .They completed their spoils by taking the gold scabbard of > . ‘ the sword which had been presentedlto Commodore Biddle by the Viceroy of Peru, some ten or fifteen years since. dur- in the troubles in South America. The sword is of great ,v as, its hilt bein of solid gold; studded ‘with diamonds. . He was a bold rob r, thus to venture in broad daylight to make a, felonious entry into fpublie room liabjfi every nio- menf‘to ofiicisl visitation. A reward of $1000 for the reco- tz. vc ofthe articles and the det ion ofthe robber is offer: edrh'y Mr. Ellsworth, the comm%ner of patents.

Albany, Dec. 3ist.—\Vo understand that Gov. Stewart, in his preparations for the Now-Year. has substituted Lemonade and Cold-Water, for Punch and Wine. This is a bold inno- Vation, but one which the spirit ofthe times demanded. The Temperance cause has a right to claim an example from the h' hest authorities. The amount heretofore expended for iue, Run, by the Governor, will now be given to the Poor. N aw Your, January 8.-The Br. schooner Emerald, formerly owned in Pictoul Captain Crawford, arrived on“ hursda night last front Halifax, and. came to anchor in the North River, ofl' Rector-street wharf, and last night, at 12 o’clock, a large field of ice drifted against the vessel, ’which caused the vesscl to drag the anchor. When ofl‘ the batteryythe we cut her through, and she filled with water and sunk. The ice carried away her mninmnst, and fore- topsailcyard. The captain and crew took to their boat, and succee edin getting on shore, without, however, saving an article of clothing. She has a cargo of coal. v‘ Geniuses. F'Aiarmnn Anus—This somewhat celebrated officer entered on another term of office, as Governor of Maine,;t the commencement of this year. His Message, .dated January 7th, has the following passage respecting the Boundary dispute 1—— “ It is with pain and mortification that I found the boun- dary qtgestion still among the standing topics of the annual executive message ‘ ‘ " 1f, fi'om this circumstance, as well as from the whole history of the case, you can discover any indication on the part of Great Britain, other than of a settled determination never to peaceably yield a large portion of the territory in controversy, you will be more fortunate than I have been. The course which, under this view, the general government should pursue, to my mind, admits noi- ther ofdoubt or hesitancy. “ "“ *‘ And then, if there is to beillrther negotiation upon the subject, let it be on the part ofGreat Britain to obtain what for more than a quarter ofa century she has refused to yield. When a reasonable expectation can no longer be entertained, that the general government ‘will adopt this, or some equally eflicncious coursgifflainc is true to herself, she will take possession ofthew‘ stirrritorymnd, if need be, use all the means which“ , V iid nature have lit in her hands to maintain it. , ‘ ' o lactation ofthe whoi)e subject rests with you,wbo, I be M o’l‘douht will approve yourselves faithful guardians of théfionourani! interests ofthe State. . , _ * ‘ 1‘ This survey, however long its completion may be de- layed, Great Britain iii no way participating in it, and being instituted for the satisfaction of our own Government, can- not justify a single day’s delay on the part of Great Britain, to agree upon ajoint commission to run the line according to the treaty of 1787, and thus put this long vexed question forever tit rest. “ The extension of the military road to some point on the St. John has become indispensable, and it is to be hoped that an eafiappropriatiou will be made bv Congress for that objec ' It is gratifying to perceive, that on this point, the opinion of the Secretary of War is coincident with that entertained here.” On this the St. John Courier remarks: _“John Fairfield having been again installed Governor of Maine, has, in his Message to the Legislature, renewed his blustering relative to the Disputed Territory. It is admit- ted \ all hands, that it is now high time this vexed affair of the lightidarv Line was set at rest, but we question whether the state of the finances of Maine, as detailed by Mr. Fair- field, are such as to warrant his vuin proposition, in case the General Government should not meet his expectations in the matter.” g _ CANADA. MELANCHOLY EVERE—The Montreal [lei-aid furnishes the following paragraph: 9Tbe‘ verdict of the Coroner’s jury on the body ofthe late MI; Uuiacke, of the 7lst Regt. is “accidental death.” Mr. Carew, of the 70th Regiment, who was the cause of taking the life of his brother officer, will be admitted to bail, and ‘ ‘ go through the customary form ofthe law, by being tried , v l ll! .9 it ‘—-—-r or the deed b njury ofliis countrymen at the ensuing cri- » *~ minal term. t appears that the oflicers at mess had parta- ken top free] at the table, and had used liberties with Mr. ‘ ‘ “iirlwliict, under other circumstances, they would not ave one, and that he threatened to shoot at them ifthcse , liberties were persisted in. His threat was not heeded. his ‘ ' wl' ‘ piece was discharged unintentionally, and its con- " e‘lodged in the leg ofthe deceased, about two , below the groin. Mr. Unincke fell back in the arms I ‘ ptain Jones, and every" assistance which could be pro- , , “tired was had. Twelve shot were extracted from his body on the st mortem examination, one of which had ascended to the interior of his stomach, causing inflammation, which produced death. As may be well imagined, Mr. Carew and all concerned in this unfortunate catastrophe, are plunged in the deepest grief. Mr. Uniacke repeatedly expressed his , conviction that Mr. Carew had not the slightest intention ofshootin him, and spoke to him and of him in the most warm an ,afl'ectionate manner. The deceased joined the 715! Re ' m on the 24th April, 1838, was a native of Ire- , d, an :' 'yson, heir to a fortune of'about five thousand a- fir. We hopeliis melancholy end will prove a warning to all who are in the habit of‘making practical jokes, or.who allow their passions to get the better of their judgment.” .3? o NOVA SCOTlA. Lssisu'rivs. Couxctt..—-Provision for the expenses of i this body, similar to that made for the other branch of the Legislature, was subject of discussion in former Assemblies, —-and, if we tnis take not, was recommended to the favour- able consideration ofthe Lower House, by the late Lieu- tenant, Governor. The matter seems to lie in a narrow compass:_ Should-persons be paid for legislative services P .45 the country in a state which will enable an Upper House. to serve Without payment of expenses ?—ls there any essential difference between the Lower and Upper House, which would make payment proper for one and not for the other ?——Do considerations of public benefit require that such, difl‘erence, if it exist, should not be hetd important abut that both branches should be placed on equal terms iii ,1: . istlng state of things. The country has decided, and we believe wisely, that, in one set of instances, persons'so em- ployed shall be saved from actual loss by their attendance on public business; and theyhalone,‘ shall not be asked to “go a'Warfare on their own charges” ;—-that,the constituen- cies shall not be limited in their choice presentattves by mere considerationsm‘f pertuniary ability; but that the farmer or mechn ' , who has mental and moral qualifica- tions, without Big of inoiiiéd wealth, may be enabled to spend two months in the __ tropolis, attending to the bus}- ncss of his _itty_lor Togpship, if his neighbours believe him tobe t "be%jiersoh't° reprcscnt their interests and opinions. The sec (1 question has been answered, it WW1d appearf’in‘ a satisfiirct’oi'y manner. The choice of the Ex- ecutive, in arranging that braifcli, was much limited, on a late occasion, by persons declining to accept the honour, on account ofthe consequent expense. Some who attended in the Council Chamber, have made intimations that .they could not continue to do so,——and persons well acquainted with the countryrdeclare that much difficulty must continue until provision be made. On the third question, We may remark, that considerable difi'erencc does exist. The Ul‘Per House has attached to its seats, rank and title, which men, everywhere, estimate as worth money. No check is held 'by one who pay all expenses ',--tlie officers are not elective by the people; the term of service is not four years. but, generally speaking,. during life or good co nob—removiil resting with the Colonial Office or the Governor. The Le- gislativc Councillor bus to pay} about £30 only for his man- damus; the member of Assembly, often, is put to five 01' SIX times that expenditure in an election. The payment 0f 8 Legislative Councillor would make a scat in the Upper Ilousc, for many reasons, more desirable than one in the Lower,and would place extended patronage, for whlch‘ much intrigue and struggling might ensue, in the hands of the Executive. These include important distinctions, whiCll may Well excuse some hesitation ou the pah of those who act, immediately, for the people—But the last question boars strongly on the one just considered, and if it be an- swcred in the affirmative, may, together with previously expressed points, it cludc something approaching to a nega— tation ofthe diflicu ty. Ifthe Legislative Council, too. great extent, represcnts the country,—if it be desirable that» the Executive should not be more hampered in his choice, than the constituenmes in theirs,—-if the best men should be the sole Object, not the best and \vealthiest,-——if the rich and the poor Legislative Councillors should feel on equal terms in their Cliamber,—-if each should be equally free from em- barrassing feelings respecting the expense which attention to public concerns causes,—ifthe public could more freely demand and scan the services of Councillors by saving them from loss while aboutvpublic business,——theu the last of our series of questions would appear answered in a way which greatly lessens, at least, the objections stated,—— and another, which consists in the addition‘to the public burdens, that would be consequent on the alteration. The last mentioned point has scarcely been touched on in these considerations,—it is ofimportance, as well as the pro- priety, on other grounds, of adding to the number of any paid oflices; but these seem of secondary consequence, compared with the mode and temper by which persons who are charged with public affairs perform their duties; five hundred pounds sterling, or a thousand, might be easily saved or lost, by a careful or negligent step in those who manage the business of a country. Besides, gentlemen resident in Town, and having private means, need not avail themselves of the provision.—Novascotian. , HALIFAX, Jan. 18th. NEW Exncu'rivr. COUNCiLLoa.——The Hon.

"'~ A REMARKABLE ESCAPE.———Tile arrian at Le Have ofthe schooner Cherub, on Tuesday last, was uitc a pleasing though unexpected occurrence. She saile from Luuen- burgh for Boston, with a load of cordwood and two or three passengers, last October, and nothing further was heard of her, by the friends and relatives ofthe crew and passengers, till she returned. It appears the vessel was driven by a storm to Barbadoes, where the cargo of wood was sold at £3 per cord, and thus she made a more lucrative trip than if she had succeeded in getting to Bostou.--Ruorder.’, PROCEEDlNGS OF THE PICTOU AGRICULTURAL SOCIETY. Pic'rou, Nov. 23, 1841.—The Committee having met this evening on the business ofthe Society, resolutions to the following effect were passed :— lst. That Peter Macgowan, Esquire, Secretary ofthe Cen- tral Agricultural Society, Charlottetown, be requested to purchase furthc Pictou Agricultural Society, 20 bushels of the best old bald wheat, and 50 bushels best white oats. That Mr. Hector Mtickcuzic, of Flat River, P. E. Island, be re- quested to purchase 50 bushels of'Tea I’Vheat, and 50 bushels of black oats, best quality.

About 3 o’clock, tb' day, His Excellency Sir Henry Vere Huntley opened the Ifiislative Assembly of this Island with the following Speech to both Houses :— .Mr. President, and Honorable Gentlemen of the Legislative Council ; Mr. Speaker, and Gentlemen of the House of Assembly; It is my peculiar province and happiner to open this session, by congratulating you upon the Birth of a Prince, Heir, apparent to the Throne of the British Empire, and also upon the perfect restoration of Her Majesty to health ; these are blessings which will call forth the expression of your profound thankfuluess to the Almighty, and ofyour warmest loyalty towards our Gracious and excellent Sove- reign. Amongst the subjects of public interest which will 'claim your consideration, 1 have especially to call your attention to the Education Bill, which expires this session. It is as unnecessary for me to descent. upon the important influence which instruction has upon‘society, as it is for me to point out how truly it becomes the duly ofthose whopossess education to assist in its extension-deception, bigotry 'and crime diminish under its increase. I also recommend to your examination the system by which the Central Academy is governed, with the view of ascertaining Whether, by a]- teration in that Institution, it might not gain a higher posi- tion in the public estimation. The replies which have been received from'iHer Majesty this particulafi—The first question is answered by the ex- I to your several Addresses of the last Session will be laid be- A Majesty to health—blessings which demand our profound thankfulness to the Almighty, for his protecting care, which hare filled all hearts, throughout every portion of these realms with confidence and joy, and call forth feelings of the warmest loyalty and attachment to Her Majesty. Few subjects of public interest claim our attention more particularly than that of Education. We shall, therefore give our best consideration to the examination of the sys- tem by. lelCh the Central Academy is governed, with a View to its improvement, and in order that it may be rendered more useful to the Colony, and thereby attain a higher position in the Public estimation. The House of Assembly Will also give Education gehterally that consideration which the great importance of the subject demands, well knowing that the best interests of the C . ' ny are chiefly dependent upon the intelligence of its lnhbagxf, and that “decep- tion, bigotry and crime diminish un its increase.” All communications which your Egcellency may be pleased to make during the Session shall receive our best attention. When the Public Accounts and Estimates are placed before its and audited, we will viite such sup 'es as the State ofthe Finances will admit of; and the public xigeu_ eies require. “ It is matter of deep regret to the House of Assembly . the numerous public Works required in this Island hth u to this period, so far trenched upon its resources as to léave in abeygnce a matter of such importance as the keeping of the @bfic Records in a place of safety.
