UPPER CANADA. Extracts from a letter recently received,' written by Mr. A Paterson, late of East Kiibride, near Glasgow, and one of the emigrants settled in the township of, Ramsay : • ss We have very good neighbours, both Scottish and Irish. All the Kilbride people who came out with us arc in good health. There were five hundred settlers came from Ireland last year ; perhaps you would hear what grant the Government gave to them. They are not the best settlers in general. Many of them have left their lands, after getting what they were allowed. They are all Roman Catholics, except five families. Those oho are near us have been very quiet as yet.— We had very good crops last year, and plenty to spare. Frent car bushel we had eighteen bushels of wheat,: weighing 6llbs. each, and would have had more, but it was rather too ripe before we got it cut, being busy with the hay. It comes so rapid that what is cut one day may be stacked the next; and the hay which is cut in the forenoon must be put in ricks in the after noon, or else the sun would injure it. We have had a very pleasant winter: a little snow fell on the Ist of November, and continued, with occasional showers now and then, until the 10th of April, when we had black ground again: The snow was not so deep, nor the win ter so cold (except for a few days), as the two former years. We had only one day of rain from the Ist of November to the 12th of April. There is a church built in the village of Lanark with the money collected in Scotland. ldo not hear of any other churches. We have a meeting in my father's house every four weeks —one of the settlers from Glasgow comes and gives us an exhortation .from the Scriptures, and prayer. We have ether meetings fur prayer in the neighbourhood, almoq every Sabbath. My father gave an acre of his land for a school-house, which Ins been built and is' now occuried. James A. is the teacher; he receives £9 per annum from the Board of Education in Perth, and twelve bushels of wheat from the settlers. There is to be a tnill built this summer on the Indian River, about one mile from us: there are plenty of fish in that river. The partridge here is about the size of the moor fowl in Scotland. We have plenty of wild ducks, geese, and pigeons. I have seen limestone, but no coal or iron stone, or free stone, which would answer for grind stones, except a kind which we get at the Mississippi Falls, for sharping our axes. This settlement is in the district of Bathurst, and county of Carlton. William Morrir, Esq. from Scotland, is our Member of Parlia meat, and every one who holds a hundred acres of land, and has got his deed, hai a vote for the Member; and begets a small sum from every settler, according to his amount of rateable property. The most of the people in the old settlements are from the States, and are called Yankees; they have different names to things from us. What we . call counting is by them called sparking.— There are a great number of bachelors here, and they are much in want of wives and housekeepers. If there was a grant of girls from Britain, they would be of great service to them in milking their cows, cooking, mending clothes, and washing. There has been a great demand for potash. We get 4s. for field ashes, and 6s. for house ashes, a bushel. We expect you sill all come out next summer." The wonderful Ox, bred and fed by Sir W. Maxwell, wf Monteith, on his lands in Galloway, was slaughtered at Ayr last week. This animal was extraordinary in many respects. lle exceeded almost every beast of the kind lately feared in Scotland, not only in bulk, bin surpassed them likewise in symmetry of form, and beauty of skin. Indeed he was considered so singular, that be was carried through the kingdom in a caravan, exhibited as a public spectacle, and was well known to *the world by the name of " Fat Charlie." He was the produce of a bull of die far-famed Teaswater kind, and of a cow of the equally famous Cunningham breed, and was about eight yews old when brought to the shambles. The four quarters weighed 1O stones of 16 oz. to the lb. and 16 lb. to the *stone. The tallow weighed 13 stone. 5 Ih. and kite hide 7 st. 8 lb. and ex clusive of the offals, the beast weighed 125 st. 13 lb. Through the rib the thickness measured 9 inches, and the la: along down the back 41, and the back-bone five. An old actress, very proud ,of her charms; used to Lave the play-house call brought into her bed-room every morning. One day a man came in who she thought was the call-boy. " Lay it down," says she, " Ledger."—" Wlfat do you mean by Ledger?" says the man: " I dye for you."—" Lord bless me! who CAR this be?" said the actress—" 4 die for you!—Dear me ; there is somebody in love with me; let me see who it is." She pulled the curtain aside, and seeing a shabby tellofv, demanded what business the impudent 'local had there?—." d)e yotu clothes, Ma'am," said he, " and am come for y!►ur bornhasine petticoat !" To citnoax A Gaosv.—The bill and feet of a young one wiil be yellow', and throe will be but few hairs upon them: if oh!, they will he red: if fresh, the feet will be rliable: if, stale, dry and stiff. Green gkese should be scalded; a stubble goose picked dry. ATTA WIRD PEERAGES. J FRASER OF LOVAT. The family of Fraser is of Norman extraction,though its origin is peetiliarly- darkened by fable. The reign of Malcolm Canmore has been assigned as the era of their settlement in Scotland : fabulists have not, how ever, been wanting to carry that event as far back as the reign of Achaius. The first Fraser who appears in charters, is Gilbert de Fraser, in the time of Alexander I. In the reign of Alexander 11. Bernard Fraser flou rished as Chief in Tweedale, in which district Oliver Castle was the family residence; and the stem from which successive migrations carried the name to luver-i ness and Aberdeenshires. Sir Simon, called Pater in. the records of the time, to distinguish him from his son' and successor, inherited the possessions of his father Bernard: we find him acting a distinguished part on the political arena of the day. His name occurs among the " Barons" by whom Alexander 111. got the suc cession to the throne of his grand-daughter acknow ledged, 5:.11 February, 1283. Ile left two sons, Sir Simon, his heir, ancestor of the Lord Fraser of Lovat;: and Sir Alexander, Chamberlain under Robert the Bruce, the pt edecessor of the F. aser of Cowie, now Lords of Saltoun. During the severe struggle in which the ambition of Edward 1. involved Scotland, these brothers Were ever foremost at their country's call. First, Sir Simon the elder, in conjunction with one John Cumine, of Badenoch, gained the battle of Roslin, in February, 1303 ; and he and Sir William Wallace were expressly , excluded in the Great Council of St. Andrew's, from the general amnesty given to the Scots; but neither exile, imprisonment,' nor seizure of his e.tate, could shake his devoted loyalty. At the battle of Methven, King Robert the Bruce WAS thrice dismounted, and as often replaced, by the intrepid valour of Sir Simon ; he saved his Monarch's life at the expense of his own, for being taken prisoner by David de Breghyn, he was put to death, on the Bth of September,l3Q6, at London, under circumstances of horrible barbarity. No refine ment t.f cruelty (as we learn from M. Westminder) was thought too severe for a man so determined in his hostility to the views of the English Sovereign. Se cond, Sir Alexander married Mary Bruce, sister to the King, and was killed at the battle of Duplin, on the 3d of August, 1352. The eldest son of Sir Simon, like wise of the same name, was captured at an early age by the English. and sent to France ; bur he succeeded in joining his former comrades, and distinguished him self both under Bruce and David 11. the latter of whoni confirmed to him the grant of she estate of Lovat, gifted to his father, and which had fallen to the Crown on the forfeiture of Sir John Bisset, anno 1242. Hence, from their founder, the Chiefs of Lovat are always called Machimie, that is, Simpson, or son of Simon ; as also Machimie-More, son of the Great Si mon. Sir Simon's two daughters carried his south country estates into the families of Hay of Locherwart and Fleming of Biggar, ancestors of the Marquis of Tweedale and Earl of Wig toun. Three descents brought the Chieftainship and possession to Hugh, documented in an indenture with Lord Fenton, 3d March, 1416, as " Lord of the Lovat." He married Janet Fenton, but the marriage articles prove his title to the property be fore his union, in opposition to those writers who would derive his right from his wife, as heiress to her mother, a daughter of Bisset of Lovat. Equally inadmissible has been the attempt to engraft the Lovat title by mar riage with Mary, daughter of the Bissets. Record no tices but four daughters of that House :-1. Mary, married to Gregory le Grant, whose sons witness an agreement in 1258, e ith the liishop of Moray; 2. Mary; , 3. Cecilia ; and 4.. Elizabeth, daughters of Sir John Bisset, last of Lovat, 1258, all married ; the first to David de Grahame, the second to Wm. Fenton, of Beau fort, the third to Sir Andrew de Bosecho. Hence nei ther of these Ladies could have allied themselves, as is pretended, pith Sir Simon Fraser; and the three crowns never were the Bissies' arms, but arms of concession, granted to the Lovats on the marriage of Julia Ross, niece of Robert Bruce, with Simon Fraser, son of the great Sir Simon. 4 , Hugo Fresale de Lovet" had a safe conduct to King James at Durham, 1423. He was one of the hostages on the King's return, 1424. It was adriiitted in a law-suit for the title in 1730, that there never was a patent of the dignity; but it is likely the family were ennobled in James First's reign, at a period. subsequent to 1480. By a deed,, dated 26th March, 1539, Hugh, fifth Baron of Lovat, resigned his lands and honours into King James Fifth's own hands, and; obtained a charter, settling both on his heirs male for ever. On the death of Hugh, 11th Lord, without issue: male, the title and estates reverted to his grand-uncle, Thomas Fraser, of Beaufort, as the first collateral branch; and in July, 1730, the Court of Session rightly adjudged the same to his son, Captain Simon Fraser, as his heir male under the destinatien, in 1539, in a com petition with the grandson of Hugh, 11th Lord. Of this last Lord Lovat it is now needless to speak ; his actions and death ate alike well known. His son, the' late Hon. General Fraser, obtained a restoration of the family estates, which he' placed under a strict entail on the respective branches from their common ancestor. By the decease of the General and his brother without issue, the succession of this illustrious house and its ho nours opened to Thomas Alexander Fraser of Lovat and Strichen, the male heir and representative of the fa mily, being lineally descended from Thomas Fraser of Knockie (second son of Alexander 6th Lord Lovat) who acquired the estate of Strichen in the year 1589. Mr. Fraser married on the 6th August, 1823. Charlotte Georgina, eldest daughter of Sir George Jerningham, Bart. now Lord Stafford, and has issue. DEATH BY FIGHTING. — Hawkins, a coachman, and liattray, a bricklayer, hiving quarrelled at a public house at Newington, on Monday night, they agreed to decide it in the morning for a sovereign. After fight ing some time, Hawkins received a blow on the side of his head which caused his death in half an hour. ORIGIN OF THE ORDER OF KNIGHTS Or THE ROUND TABLE.—King Arthur, observing many quarrels about precedency amongst his Kuights about the year, 516,, caused a round table to be made, at which all the Order, including the Sovereign himself, took their seats promis cni.usly ; to this table none were admitted but those Iwho had given sufficient proof 'of their valour and dexterity in the ose of arms.—The following is a list of the First Table of these Knights : Arthur, King of Great Britain. King Rions Kelm de Seneschal King Karadoc of I Yrien, the son of Wales King Artian The King of Clare Brun, or the Black The Duke of Cia- Bedunier, the Con. rence stable Hector dr blared.

To induce persons to become members, a pamphlet, written by a person named Maton ' has been industri ously circulated. It is addressed to the i.oe Mauna, as the indi vidual most fitted, on account of his statiou, to take cognisance of the subject of bread in the metropolis ; and from whatever source it proceeded, an impression has gone abroad, that his Lordship had not patronised the new Company, but took an active part in the suppression of the establishment. In the course of the last fortolaht, a number of Gentlemen came to the Mansion-house to consult his Lordship upon the subject ; and one of the members of the new Company formally applied to his Loldshie, with the request that be world place himself at the head of the proposed Institution. The Losa Nlacmt expressed his respect for the motives of the Gentlemen who had been persuaded to allow their names to be put at the head - of the concern, and said be knew them to be men of too much honour to permit the existence of a doubt that they con sidered that such an Institution was just, and would be beneficial. But he entertained far different views of tile subject, and could not consent to have his name made use of in the manner proposed, u he felt that such an Institution would be nothing less than a com bination, destructave sf the freeitn, and opposed to the first prin. ciplep of trade. The party contended warmly, that. the plan was for tife general good, to which private interest must ever give way, and that the Institution, when actively operating, must produce incalculable be-' nefits.—The Loan Mayor', we are informed, inquired, what, sup posing the plan should be as extensively countenanced as the can-: guine projectors seemed to expect, must become of the baleen, their families, and the thousands w ho were dependent upon that business for bread? Ile declared, that he felt himself called upon to express himself thus decidedly, and he hoped that the respect able men who had given their names to the Institution, would adopt a similar opinion. M I I 1 BOW.STREET. .Tohn Cramer was charged with stealing two silk shawls from the shop of Drake and Co. linen-drapers, in Long-acre. The prisoner, whose countenance bore evident marks of the most poignant mi sery, had, it appeared, last night run into the shop of the prosectt• tor, and snatched the shawls. He was pursued and taken in James street, Covent-garden. When informed that he must be delivered' to the custody of the watchman, he said," that's just what I want; here's your property ; I meant nut to -keep it." When called upon for his defence, he said, " Nothing at present." Naw Mona os Swomitszo.—A decent, pretty girl, named Lucy Martin, appeared to make the following complaint :—She had been living for three years and a hair in the service of an Irish Lady, with whom she had gone to Brighton. There the Lady died; and site came up to town to look for a place. She came by the Charing cross coach, which arrived in town, on Monday, at three o'clock in the afternoon. Having alighted some few paces before the coach got to the yard, she was accosted by a plainly dressed, genteel-looking lady, who asked her if she wanted a place 2—The poor girl, pleased at the prospect of so early obtaining the object of her mission to London, replied in the affirmative. The lady then , told her she wanted a eti Taut of all-work ; she kept a cook, a house-maid, and a footman, and that she was the only person wanting to make up her establishment. An agreement was made, and the girl was raising her bundles to follow the lady, when site called a coach, and said, if she liked, she might put one of her bun-' dies in the coach. The girl, glad of an opportunity to lighten bee load, accepted the offer, and at the same time expressed a wish to ride outside with the coachman, as she was a stranger in London. The lady said no; she should not do that. She lived in William street, Temple-bar, to which place anybody would direct her. The poor girl went in search of the abode pointed out to her; but in vain o neither William-street, nor her new mistress could she find. While walking about in the greatest anxiety as to the coarse she ought to pursue, she very fortunately applied to one of the Officers belonging to this Office, who brought her before Mr. HALL& She stated, that she had neither father nor mother alive, and her only relations in existence were a brother and sister, now in the East Indies.—The worthy NAGISTIUTZ then directe d ' an Officer to fol low the information given by the complainant, and endeavour to discover some clue which might lead to the apprehension of the offender. 11. also said, that as the place where this unfortunate occurrence had taken place was in the Parish of St. Martin's-in the.Fields, he might be able to obtain her relief from the Work house in that Parish. George Frederick Salt, an Irish Frenchman, who gave his name at the watch-house to be " Stater and Cream," was taken up for disorderly conduct in a public-house in Drury-lane, where he had gone on Monday night, demanding beer, but which the landlord re fused to give on account of his extraordinary appearance, which was altogether very whimsical. He wore mustachios, but no shoes; his stockings were cut off at the ancle, and his look was very fo reign. He passed himself off as a foreigner in distress, soliciting charity, and had been repeatedly in St. James's watch-house ' front which he had only been discharged on Monday morning. While et the public-house, he attempted to stab a person with a sharp in strument, but before being searched, he contrived to throwit away. His behaviour was extremely insolent at the office. He charged the watchmen and constables with being perjured ruffians, and said he would sot be silent for the King himself. The Magistrate com mitted him for two months to the House of Correction, on which he replied—" I don't care: you may do as you like, Sir." QUEEN-SQUARE. BURGLAST.—Aterander Burgess was charged with committing a burglary in the house of Mr. Howell, architect, Vincent-square, Westminster, on the night of the Yid of July. The robbers were disturbed on breaking an inner door by an alarum. One of them left his hat and two handkerchiefs behind, which were said to be the prisoner's property. It was also proved that he was seen near the house without a hat, directly after the robbery.—Pace, the officer, said he met the prisoner, and a young man named Co o k.— Witness was in company with Pople, tracing the burglary com mitted at the house of the Rev. Mr. Haggis, Rector of St. John's, Westminster, whose house had been entered the night previous, where the perpetrators had killed a fine Newfoundland dog, and after cutting off the animal's legs, and quartering the body, placed the remains at the bed-room door. He took the prisoners into a house and examined them minutely, and particularly noticed that the prisoner had on a black silk hat, and firmly believes the one now produced to be the same.—He was commkted. • J. H. Counter, dressmaker, of Somerset-street, Portman-square, and Matilda his wife, were charged with - having a quantity of pro hibited lace, silk, an d crape, in their custody, which subjected them to a forfeittu e of the goods, and a hue of triple the value. They pleaded Guilty; in which case half the fine is generally remitted; but they having attempted to bribe the Olken to withhold the in formation, which was considered an aggravatiot,they were ordered to pay two-thirds of the triple value. LA NIBETHATREET. J. Abrahams, J. Wheeler; and B. Wooffe, the two former charged with stealing a bale of goods from Pick fords' waggon, and the lat ter with receiving it, were re-examined, and fully committed. The driver said, that since the prisoners had been in custody the waggon bad been again robbed, and the culprits committed front the Thames Police Office. HATTON-GARDEN. Tunes.--.lt will be remembered that an application was made on the subject of Tithe! to Mr. Serjeant Simon, by Mr. griffitha,one of the Vestry Clerks of St. Andrew, Holborn, appearing on be half of the present incumbent, the Rev. Mr. 13eresford, but the Magistrate declining to give any opinion, unless in the presence of bosh parties, yesterday was appointed for the hearing, and some in timation thereof having obtained publicity through the medium of the • Police Reports. the office was crowded at an early hour by some of the most respectable inhabitants. Mr. Griffiths, about twelve o'clock, came into the office, and stated, that in consequence of the absence of the Rector, who is at present out of town, he was unable to procure certain b ooks and do cuments, which he considered necessary to support the demand. Mr. LAING, the presiding Magistrate, observed, that the import ance of the question suggested the expediency of affording suffi cient time for its consideration to both parties.. Mr. Hyder, one of the Gentlemen summoned, observed, that be was only desirous Mr. Griffiths would specify tke particular statute under M hich he meant to proceed for the recovery of these tithes? Mr. Griffith.—! know of no statute for the subtraction of tithi.s. lir. Hyder—But, Sir, in you' sunemuns, I bud the words— " agreeable to the statute." Mr. Lama—There is an Act fur the recovery of small tithes, but there is no necessity fGr the specification of any particular sta tute in the recovery of tithes, the right of which has been esta blished from time immemorial; in fact, long before statutes were framed or thought of. Mr. Griffiths—l submit, Sir, that the payment of tithes by those very persons now summoned hilly establishes the right, and throws the onus completely opoo their shoultlem . Mr. Lanso—As the Rector is out of town, I shallcerraluly tufts the bearing to be postponed. It was ultimately decided, that the Vestry Clerk should call on Thursday, to name a day fog the finardeelsion of.the okmotiou. UNION-HALO • - A young boy, named Jac& Page, who, although only between 1 2 arid l3years of age, has been repeatedly brought to this office, on various charges of theft, and committed thence to each of th e county prisons, was yesterday again brought before the Sitting Ma. gistrate for stealing a rope of onions from a stall in the Bototighlriae. ket.—The Magistrate observed, that be really did not /now what to Jo with so incorrigible a rogue; the punishment even of the treadmill, it appeared, had not made the slightest change iti his habits for the better ; and he (the Magistrate) was persuaded, th at until an Act of Parliament passed for adding the punishment of !Legging to that of imprisonment. on all delinquents under the age of sixteen, very little beneficial effects would be produced from ja i . ptisousnent and work at the wheel alone. The Governor of Brixton Jail, who happened to be in the office, expressed a similar opinion. Stout robust nu m, he said, mi l k r eel fatigued by the exercise of the wheel, but this never uccu r.. 4 w w, active and slender youths, as they defended from the machine as little exhausted as when they commenced the wink. The Magistrate made some further remarks on the necessity of inflicting corporal punishment on young uifendets, as well as imps I. sonment, and committed the_prisoner for one month to Brixton. WEAVERS ASSOCIATION IN PAISLEY.—Last week a numerous meeting of operative weavers, amounting to upwards of 1,200, met in St. James's.street Chapel, to consider of the propriety of forming a union, to pre. vent, as far as possible, the reduction of prices, and to obtain a uniform and fair remuneration for their labour, Resolutions in accordance with the objects of the meet ing were adopted. Au MORITA , OF THE SCOTCH NOVELS.—In the cm, se of a trial at the late Assizes, for concealment of preg. nancy, Mr. M'Niel, the Counsel for the prisoner, argued, that although no express declaration of her condition had been made to any of the witnesses who had bee,n called by the prosecutor, yet it was fairly presumable that such a disclosure had been made to the wotn.m's parents, whom she was proved to have visited frequently (luting her pregnancy; and he contended that.the pri soner was the more entitled to the Lent& of this pre sumption, as by the law of Scotland parents mete inadmissible witnesses for their children, and he hzd not therefore presumed to offer them for his client. With reference to this part of the prisoner's case, and in his very eloquent address to the Jury, Lord liermand said, with much warmth, " I reject my friend's law. I say that in such a case, a patent would be a good witnes', and I am .sure that the Learned Gentleman would not have scrupled to put either of the prisoner's parents in that box, if their testimony could have been of set vice to his client. Can he have forgotten the case of Effie Deans, in 1736? If parents and sisters were' not ad missible witnesses under this statute, is it to be believed that the great lawyers of these days, both on the-bench and at the bar, would have allowed Jeanie Deans to be examined as a witness ? I say no, Gentlemen. The prosecutor would have interposed, and the Bench would have paused ; but the witness was admitted without question on either side, although it was known that her evidence was to be decisive of the case. Here then is an instance, Gentlemen, where a near relation was ad mitted, and I am sure many more might be found." This part of the address excited some merriment at the bar, but k was admitted that his Lordship's opinion was perfectly sound. FATAL Occunnesce.—A Coroner's Inquest was held a few days ago at the mansion of J. GARDEN, Esq. Re disham Hall, Essex, on the body of Robert Evans, a set rant in that Gentleman's family, whose death was occasioned by a wound he received in die belly with a knife. It appeared in evidence that on the Roth of September last, John Stolger, a fellow-servant of the deceased, was in the servants':hall, and quarrelled with the deceased whilst he was laying the cloth on the table for the servants' dinner. It commenced by the deceased going up to Stolger, and shaking him by the collar of his coat, &Adger resisted, and the deceased then kicked hint. Stolger had a dinner knife in his hand at the time he received the kick, and in the heat of passion he thrust it into the deceased's body, and wounded hint shockingly in the lower part of it. The deceased seized a poker, and struck at Stolger with it, but by stooping his head he avoided the blow. Surgeons were called in, and pronounced , the deceased in a dying state, and Stolger was taken into custody. On the following morning the deceased died. The above facts being sworn to by different witnesses, the Jury returned a ver dict of Manslaughter against Stolger, who wits cont. (bitted by the Coroner to take his vial for the offence. Lours the XVIIIth once went to Bath, labouring under a violent paroxysm of the gout. Dr. PARRY, who attended him, asked what kind of appetite he possessed? His Majesty replied, " Very good, very good; I eat as much as foirr !' With this answer the physician was satisfied. Dr. PARRY then prescribed a very severe regimen, as well as a long course of physic. He became greatly reduced in bulk, and at the end of six weeks was completely recovered. The physician, calling to take leave of the re-invigorated Monarch, was told by him that he wanted to put an advertisement law the Bath papers, which he wished Dr. PARRY to see properly inserted. The advertisement, added the Km, shall be short, and may run thus: " Lost—great part rf my telly. Who soever finds it and brings it back, shall be duly re warded." The doctor laughed, enjoyed this ebullition of pleasantry, and they soon after parted.—Mirfor. The 4th current, at CampsallFark, the Laly of Sir Joc:pla Radcliffe, Bart. of a sou and heir. DIED. Oa the Stith of September, Alfred, son of the late James Bowden, Esq. of Edmonton, aged 17. At Edinburgh, on the .1d current, Esther, the wife of the Rev. Christopher Anderson.

'n Tuesday se night, Mr. Thomas Walkey, a shipwright in his Majesty's dock-yard, Plymouth, from a trifling injury which be had received a short time before, while following his duty in the yard. It appears that the deceased knocked the skin very slightly off his leg, and that it was dressed by the doctors at the time; tail so little was the injury thought of, that the man has since been to his work; however, mortification followtd, and on Tuesday lasts notwithstanding every medical advice, the man died. This is tip: thirteenth or fourteenth shipwright w hosei death has been caustd, apparently by trifling injuties, within these two months, in the yard.
