This, fatter is dated Jerusalem, 81b of March; and if .2 not. the ionly one", is certainly the last purely scientific ‘Ifitt’éfi of Sir 'David Wilkie. Mr Harvey being at Con- jf'tlhtinbple, and unable liimselfto proceed into Syria, ' lent his barometer to Sir David, with the request that hex-ivoqu observe its indications at the level of the Dead Sea, in order to a verification of the fact of the depres- sion dfthat sea below the level of the ocean ; Sir David, accordingly, made many- observations on the coast of .the Mediterranean, at Jafi't, at Jerusalem, and at the Dead Sea; and also in the mountains; the letter being read, the Secretary said, that it was much to be regret- ‘ ited'that the observations were not sufficiently complete to enable us to make from them a rigorous calculation of the actual depression of the Dead Sea below the level ofthe Mediterranean, inasmuch as there were no cor- responding observations, and no indieitions of a (letach- ed thermometer; nevertheless, by taking thirty inches for the mean height of the barometer at the level of the sea, 12 deg. Scentigrade for the mean temperaturo, and by supposing a detached thermometer showing the same temperature as the attached thermometer, and Working , the formula with this data for the upper station, and Sir David‘s ‘data for the lower station (the Dead Sea), the result is, that the depression of the latter is “9,876 feet, which difl'ers but slightly from firmer observations. And although, as has been said, the calculations from Sir David Wilkie’s observations cannot be regarded as exact, they certainly corroborate, in a manner sufficient— ly satisfactory, the results obtained by others, to convince nus that the Dead Sea is depressed below the Mediterra- hean more than 1000 feet. The remarkable fact, never- theless, still requires corroboration, to satisfy our minds completely; and it ismncli to be desired that this inter-' csting question were finally settled, which it might be _ easily any traveller who, being competent to observe, ‘ shall be furnished with good instruments, and who will take care to obtain corresponding observations. CONSTANTINOPLE, Nov. l7.-—-While the Turks are enjoying their Bairam it appears to be a proper moment ' for: sketching a general view of their political position. I shall attempt to do so with perfect impartiality. The hold the Park: has of Syria is necessarily weak. The submission of Mehemet Ali was an act of necesf city, and his present apparent cordial union with the Sultan is a mere exemplification of the Turkish proverb, which enjoins men " to kiss the hand they cannot cut off.” Tripoli is governed by a Turkish general, who has under him a small Ottoman corps d’armce; but what is. the nature of his rule there? The Arabs coun- ter act almost every thing he seeks to do; and it is only 'by the exercise of brute force and positive cruelty that ‘ he can collect a portion of the ordinary taxes- France has assumed the protection of Tunis; and the next step to protection is conquest. In the meantime Tunis may produce the Porte a rich harvest of trouble, but will certainly yield no profit. Let us now come to«Greece, whose sole aim has for some time past been, and still is, annoyance to the Porte. With this view, expeditions were openly'fitted out at Athens, and in broad daylight set sail for Candia; with this view Valenzas was CllCOll~ rtiged by the Governincnt‘to invade the Ottoman terri- tory in Thessaly, for the avowed purpose of exciting the ray is to rebellion; and the danger from that quarter m; be very urgent, or the Porte would never, with its finances crippled as they are, think of sending 45,000 men in that direction. , Something very bad may come out of this affair, for besides the secret machinations of France, it may be fairly suspected that Russia is not idle in the quarter "‘“alluded to. The Turkish Government cantiotconfide in the loyalty of the Albanians, who have ever been mercenary; they are the Swiss ofthe Levant—always ready to serve any master who will pay them, and allow scope to their lioentious propensities. 1 know not what confidence can be placed on the Bosnians; lshould think very little. Servia is already gone; so are Wal- lachia and Moldavia. Beyond, we have, on one side, Austria, who once took money from the Porte to fight its battles, and then turned herarms against it; on the other, Russia, whose “ progress in the East” has been suspended, but whoee system of encroachment is still the same, as exposed in the able pamphlet on the sub- ject attributed toSir John M'Ncil. I shall say nothing about Circassia; but Turkey has to the cast of her Persia, who will never be a sincere friend, but may be readily converted into a foe. Curdistan is now quiet, but has by no means wholly submitted. Armenia will be always tranquil, except in case of a Russian inva- sion, when the inhabitants will act as they did during the last war, _t'. e., turn Russians, and repent of their folly when too late. " I have now made the circuit ofthe Ottoman empire, and can see many elements of future danger, but none of safety and consolation. CousTANTrNOPLa, Nov. 27.—Never was the Ottoman Government so poor as it is at present.

The following Joint Address to Her Majesty, and Met. morial tobotl: Houses of the Imperial Parliament, as Prefl' paredby .the Joint Committee of the Legislative ,COUllflL and House of Assembly, were severally’adopted byut 9 House. ‘ i ‘ TO THE QUEEN’S MOST EXCELLENT MAJESTY- May it please your Majesty; We your Majesty’s dutiful and loyal subjecl$i “‘9 eg'Sla' 1 tive Council and Assembly of the Island of Prince dward. in Colonial Parliament embled, beg to approach your Throne with the hu ' e reqt'f‘é'st, that you Will cause to be taken into consideration the situation of this Island, in rela- tion to its Agriculture. ‘ _ Dependent, in common with our fellow snipects . Colony, exclusively on the'cultivution ofthe scil for our main- tenance, Without a sufficient market for our surplus produced, we can never hope to attain at anything like prosperity ; an we feel that whilst we import British manufactures to a laige amount, that if the Poits cf,Great Britain were open to t e importation of our Corn, unrestricted by any Duties: that our condition would be so mucbameliorated, that the uni employed population of the Mother Country _would fin. their way to this and the iieighbouringColonies, llfllll'mllelsp affording relief to ‘the Agricultural and other districts or Great Britain, and ofa value quite commensurate With any loss that, by possibility, might be sustained by the competi- tion in the home market of Corn the produce of these Colo- nies; and thus a reciprocal advantage might be derived to both Great Britain and this Colony. , Relying on your Majesty’s known so'icitude for all-parts ofyour Empire, we begr to lay this our prayer at the tootpt your august Throne, on the granting of which our prosperity so much depends—and we shall, as in duty, bound, ever pray. in this The Memorial hf the Legislative Council and Assembly ofllei' Majestélé Island of Prince Edward, in Colonial Pur- liaiiient coan id, sliewcthr- . That your Memorinlistfiand their fellow subjects in this Island, are‘cntircly dcpetidbnt for their prosperity on :1 Mar- ket for the sale of; Agricultural Produce. Having no Coal or Minerals, or other raw material, their pursuits are neces- sarily confined to the cultivation ofthe soil; and that culti- vation is much circumscribed by the length ofthe Winter season in this climate,» which prevents their keeping such a stock of horned cattle and sheep as their farms require-:— it is thus more particularly on the growth ofCorn that their dependence rests. ' . Your Mc/morialists therefore pray, that the duties on the importation ofColoniul Corn—namely, Wheat, Barley, Oats, Rye, vPease and Beans, Wheat Meal and Flour, Oatmeal, Maize, Indian Corn, Buck Wlient, Beer or Bigg, and on all Salted Provisions, may cease. \Vhilst exertions are making in England to get rid of her crowded population, by means of Emigration, it appears to your Memorialists that the main engine to be employed, to render such a measure successful, must be, the finding pro— fitable employment for those who may be thereby induced to leave their native country; and it is the deliberate opi- nion ofyour Memorialists, that to grant their prayer would have more permanent results, in inducing Emigration, than can be afforded by any, the most profuse, moneyed grant in aid of such a purpose. - Your Memoriulists disclaim any desire to derive advantage from the difficulties of their Agricultural brethren in Great Britain, conceiving, as they do, that they are all members of the same family—nor have they anything to do with the question of the policy ofopening the Ports of Great Britain to Foreign Corn ; their desire is, to obtain an cxceptiomfrom duty in favour of Colonial Corn, on the ground ofthe exten- sive importation of British Manufactures into these Colo- niés, which importation, it is obvious, would be greatly in- crenscd,could the inhabitants of this Island be relieved from he necessity of remitting specie, which they are now under, because they do not find a market for their Agricultural Produce in Great Britain; and thus a process would begin, by which additional employment would be found for the British manufacturer. Nor should it be forgotten, that whilst the importation to England of Continental Corn is commonly paid for in specie, that for that which would be introduced by your llIémor-ialists, her manufactures would be'i'equired in exchange. It should be considered, likewise, that Great Britain derives great benefit from the asylum that is here offered to that surplus population which would otherwise become an increasing charge on the expenses of British cultivation——a benefit which your Mcmorialists con- sider of such value, that they do not entertain the smallest doubt, that if their irayer were granted, and hereafter, ifa balance were struc between the amount ofthe moneyed value of the relief tlius afforded to the British grower of Com by increasing Colonization, and the amount ofloss he could sustain by the admission of Colonial Grain into free competition with his own, that such balance would be ex- tensively in his favour. Your Memorialists further consider, that the repeal in their lhvour of the duties on the importation into Great Britain of Colonial Corn, and other produce, appears foun- ded on ujust and f ir system of reciprocity, and that its re- sults would be high y advantageous to Great Britain, as well as her Colonies. Begging your favourable consideration ofthe premises, your Mcmorialists will, as in duty bound, ever pray. SATURDAY; February 19. Resolved, That the following Address to His Excellency the Lieut. Governor do now pass :— To His Excellency Sir HENRY VERE [{UNTLEY, Knight, Lieu- tenant Govemor, 15w. g-c. 29c. May it please your Excellency; The House of Assembly would beg respectfully to state that a portion of the Lands in the Town and Royalty of Georgetown are described in Grants which have passed the Seal oftlii< Island as lands “adjoining the Rovalty ofGeorge- :ovvii,”—wliich description the House of Assembly consider to be not in conformity with the bestgiutbeuticutcd des: criptions and most ancient Maps ofthe said Town and Roy- alty, nor with the Colonial Act ofGth \Vm. 1V., Cap. 24.

Mr. Secretary Havilan‘d, by cOmmand of His Excellency the Lieutenant Governor,‘deliver‘ed the following Messages: [FIRST MESSAGE.] H. V. IIUN TLEY, Lieut. Governor. , The Lieutenant Governor lays before the House ofAs- sembly the Estimates for the Services of" the current year. Accompanying thorn is a Memorial of the Assessors for the Pumps and Wells of Charlottetown, and for other purposes, praying for aid towards the purchase of an additional Fire Engine, and the erection ofan Engine House, which the Lieutenant Governor submits for the consideration of the House. The Lieutenant Governor: also lays' before the House, Accounts of Expenditure which has been incurred in and about Government House and Premises, during the past year, beyond thesum granted lbr those purposes. Government House, 22nd February, 1842. [SECOND MESSAGEJ H. V. IIUNTLEY, Lieut. Governor. The Lieutenant Governor lays before the House of As- sembly, the Returns of the Commissioners of Statute Labour for the past year, showing, at the same time, the present state of the Roads and Bridges in their several Districts. Also, the Account ofthe Road Correspondent of the ap- lication of the sums granted by the Legislature for the service ofRouds and Bridges, for the past year. In making suitable provision for this service for the cur- rent year, the Lieut. Governor leaves it to the local know- ledge possessed by, the House to appropriate such an amount as is compatible with necessary improvements, and the dis- posable resources oftlie'Cplony. The Lieutenant Governor avails himself of this oppor- tunity to submit to the Ilousea Petition of John Roach Bourke, Esquire, Road Commissioner of the, 9th District, praying, on account ofthe reasons therein assigned, for a Grant of Sixty Pounds, to enable him to discharge the balance due to the Contractor for building the Bridge over Vernon River. The facts of this case are comprised in the Petition and Papers annexed; but the Lieutenant Governor must observe, that when Petitioner applied to the House of Assembly, in the last Session, for an additional Grant of £50, to complete the contract for this Bridge, as stated in his Petition, it does not appear that be informed the House that the object of his application was, to make up the de- ficiency ofindividual subscriptions in aid ofthe said Bridoe. It was also the duty of Petitioner to have reported to {he Goverpmcnt his inability to raise the required amount of subscription, before he took upon liimselfto enter into a contract for the erection of the Bridge.
