ENGLISH AND BRISTOL CHANNELS SHIP CANAL, number of 600 or 700, proclaiming aloud their hostile intentions. About twenty Englishmen have already fallen miserably before those pitiless savages. " Mr. Lawson, some time ago lost four men, cut off by the savages; and very lately, three others hate also' fallen victims to aboriginal barbarity. They, are n:rt unacquainted with the horrible art of scalping, for the skins of those poor men were completely torn over the face, and the bodies otherwise exhibited a most fr ight ful sight. Two hundred and fifty sheep were then killed. Owing to these successive atrocities, the imrnen•e stock upon the other side of the mountains is becoming scat tered over the whole country ; the shepherds and kee r ers have necessarily abandoned their charge to the rapacity of the natives, and thus the strength and wealth of the country is for the present exposed to, estruction. Se veral settlers, we are credibly informed, are contem• plating a removal from that part of the country, un less effectual measures be promptly adopted to stop further outrages. " Considerable quantities of wheat, we observe, con tinue to be sent up from Van Diernates Land." ' graph was likewise expunged from the address, amid the derision of the great majority of the Peers. So Limed, mingled, and mutilated, by the parties whose feelings it purported to express, tli;s unfortunate com position could not be supposed to receive the approba. tion of the Chamber. It was therefore put to the vote as a %%hole, and the dissentient majority, thinking the was rasura better than impracticable corrections, rejecied it altogether, amid hootings and bursts of laughter. The Commission 'was therefore sent back, to con iwer its task afi • 1 11. In the other Chamber the project of address has experienced no such difficulties. JAIMAILY 1, 11115.

SUNDAY NfOßNlNG.—Within the memory of the oldest inhabitant of this place there has been no winter, with so long a succession of boisterous weather, as the pre sent. From all parts of France the complaints of the farmers are prevalent, as the heavy rains have com pletely rotted the food in the ground which was pro vided for the sheep.; and in some places there have been partial inundations, attended with disastrous conse quences to property. The destruction at sea his equal led, if not exceeded, that of the worst years. and there is scarcely a port on the coast which has not witnessed a wreck. Here a new vessel of 180 tons, 'from Dieppe, was driven ashore, and wrecked. At' Havre two or three vessels met that fate ; but it is remarkable that a steam vessel from Dieppe, the Duke d'Angouleme, suc ceeded in entering the port at the same moment that the sailing vessels were wrecked in sight of the basin. The Fury arrived here from Dover last night at eleven o'clock, with about 100 passetlers, and dispatches for the British Ambassador in Pans. Mr. Maggaw, con- • fideutial courier of Mr. Rothschild, was also passenger, on his way to Naples. Mr. M. is the courier who made the journey from Naples to London, not long ago, in eleven days. The unfortunate dispute which took place at Dover a few days ago, between the French soldiers who put in there from stress of weather, on their way to Mar tinique, and some of the inhabitants, has been iepre• 'rented to the French Government by the Authorities of Calais; nut I am happy to hear th It s•ime of the prin cipal persons at Dover, including many of the mili tary, have borne testimony to the general good conduct of these men, during their stay at Dover, and have much softened the anger which might be felt towards ' them by the French Government, on account of their having wounded some of the inhabitants. I am as sured that they were grossly insulted by the rabble be fore they drew their swords. ADMIRALTY-OFFICE, 30th December, 1824.

Gazelle of the date sth and 9th of August last, just received, give but a very discouraging account of the newly-discovered country called Bathurst,' of which expectation had been so much raised by the sheep-farmers of that colony : " Beyond the Blue Mountains we have 41,000 acres of located land, 83,000 sheep, and about 300 . horned cattle. The inhabitants are necessarily scatte red aver an extent of country 120 miles long by 60 wide. For the defence of this property and population, we have three Magistrates, four Constables, and a few soldiers. One of the Magistrate; who left Bathurst but three l days since, with other settlers of great respectability, report that the natives are assembled in a body to the PRIVATE CORRESPONDENCE. THOH THE " TIMM " __ _ _ " Nan, DECiliflifi 31. "Yesterday the Chamber of Peers exhibited a rather singular scene. The subject of deliberation was the an swer of the Royal speech : the Reporter of the Corn mission for drawing up this answer was M. de Ronald. This said answer—the result of the united wisdom of the Commission and its Reporter—was unceremoniously rejected. The Ultra Commissieo, by going too far, for feited the confidence of the Chamber which had elected them, and defeated the plan of the Ministers which they wished to execute. They began their labours by , congratulating the King on the forthcoming project for indemnity to the emigrants, and assuring him that the Chamber would hail its introduction with gratitude. ' This anticipated satisfaction in the uncertain fruit of Ministerial policy—this political faith, which was to be the evidence of things not seen'—thii certain pledge to a project of at least doubtful wisdom, did not suit the temper of the Chamber., " Count Daru pointed out the - abibrdity of promising the support of the Peers to a law which might be bad, and which, like some of last year's projects, they might, after discussion, be led to reject. Out, therefore, went this confiding paragraph, amid the derision of the Chamber. The next ticklish point on which the Ad dress—in its echo to the Royal speech—was obliged to touch was, the occupation of Spain by the French army. In this part of their work, the Commission informed his Majesty, • that the occupation of Spain by the French army wag, only a continuation of the triumph of the Duke of Angouleme, who had given liberty to Spain." 4. The barefaced falsehood implied in the latter part of the sentence, excited a general murmur of disappro bation in the Chamber': This is too much (ezclaimed Count Daru)—this is a mockery on the gravity of the Chamber. Nobody disputes the glory of the Duke of Angouleme ; but is it not an insult to our understand. ings to tell us that the military operation of the Penin. sula,which is a misfortune to both countries, is it triumph to his Royal Highness, and that the frightful state of disorder in winch the return of absolute power has placed Spaiu is the restoration of liberty ?' This para. The following extracts from a letter dated at Queens mob Upper Canada, 80th October, 18fl, will be foetid interesting Goodi are sold very low here, and the number of merchants continue to increase. A good living can be made in this country, but the time for making fortunes' is gone by. I believe a more free and happy people (if they 'only knew it) does not exist on the face of the earth. The taxes are nothing, when compared with , those of the United States. A man, with a fine farm of 200 acres, plenty of stock, full barn, fine house, and ,efrerything in plenty around him, has at the most only thirty shillings of taxes to pay, and a majority not half of 'that sum. The most of the farmers have a patch of .tobacco for their own use. At Sandwich, 300 miles above us, this article is cultivated to a very considerable extent. The crown and clergy reserves are in the heart of the settled country, and if proper encouragement were 1 g wen upon them to emigrants, it would add much to the strength of the country, and value of property. These reserves, besides large grants made in early times, to favourites, has very much retarded the pro sperity of it. - 44 This is one of the finest climates in the world. I wish I could have shared with you some of our fine 'melons, peaches, and grapes, last summer. Last year the crops were but poor, and people's ideas of the value of grain rose much beyond what the state of the mar kets even then warranted. Many of the Upper Canada merchants have suffered much this year in &lir, and some at least lost •ten shillings on every barrel. The harvest here, this season, has been very abundant. Wheat is now about 2s. 6d. per bushel. A steam Sour-mill was erected last year near Niagara, end there is now another building a few miles distant, which will of course operate somewhat against the mills driven by water. There is a good deal of stir here just now about canals, and if the projects are carried into effect the country will be greatly benefited, by affording facility to transport." 4. The Diario di Roma contains an ordonnance of Cardi nal Zurla, Vicar-General of the Roman' Curia,* against the immodest costume of the Roman dames ;—." It is most deplorable," says the Cardinal, "to see s great num ber of women glory in their immodesty, in . their own houses, in the streets; in public or private assemblies, and even in the temple of the LORD; but his Holiness Pope Leo X. hopes that, being docile to his friendly ad.' dress, the women will not ioree him to apply to them more severe punishment. It is not meant hereby to forbid women to dress according to their rank and dignity, pro- Tided that scandal be avoided. And seeing that this.is an_ object of the greatest importance, his Holiness has commanded me to prohibit strictly all scandalous a upon pain of temporal, pecuniary,and afflictive pena according to the gravity of the case; and it is his plea sure that the same punishment be applicable to the wo men who, At first sight, appear covered, but whe wear clothing so thin and so adhesive to their bodies, that they make a mischievous and lascivious zhibition of. their person. One would say that the t . escribed and deplored by St. Clement of Alexandria, had re turned. Fathers, mothers, masters, and other heads of families, will be personally responsible far the infraction of this law, as well as tailors, tailoresses, milliners, and all persons who may render themselves accomplices of such immodesty. The Rectors, Conf essors , Preachers, Missionaries, and other Ministers of the Gospel, are charged, in all that concerns them, with the execution of the present ordonnance." 0 • .
