Another very impartial Act has tr. en 0.11 sore recently peeped relatiag to vagrants, which will, I trust, tend to correct many abuses, tool restra4 onagers eery tapenditure of the comity rate. Since the Ist of Sep ti slier last au Magistrate has power to give directions for the coeveyasee, or to order any reward to be paid out of the county tate, fur the apprehension of any vagrant or disor derly person.

By this provision, the ends of good order and morality will, I think, be equally promoted, and the county rate will be considerably relieved.

It is impossible, Gentlemen, fur me positively to say that such reduction will be permatieut; but I will venture to express my simplify: hope and ex• prettifies that it will be so; and I can cou6ileutly assure you that it will be the etideasour of the Magistrates at hirer to creel it.—Gentlemen, I ought to •pulogise fur hay. int detained you so long.

Onetime —The herring fishery in Orkney is advancing rapidly into importance. Foor years ago the whole quan tity cored in the county did not exceed • few hundred bar rels; it amounted last season to about 19,4)00 barrels. This season, whirls has hero ao late and unprodoctive at Wick. sod at most of the great fishing stations on the east roast of Scotland, has proved highly favourable •t the statious in Orkney. The curers filled their barren early in the season. The "'entities take. were an consid«rable that • siagle corer received upinorts of 1,200 crane of fish in one day. The fishermen, al the moderate rate of rix shillings per eras, earned more than their neighbours on the Scotch roast at II 1 Ile shillings per eran. They can afford to CM at the stations in Orkney at • cheaper rate, heroine, from the proximity of the islands to each other, the Ihkerrnen renew to their own booms for their week's provisions and fret every Saturday, and reach the fishing stations easily again on Monday; and whew on the stations, the expenses of the ishermen, the wear and tear of their boats, the hire of lodgings, and of ground for their nets, are considerably leas than at those stations, at which, from the nature of the coast, the whole of the boats and people must rennin dodo, the season in one place. The harbours and safe landing place* are so aumerous, that the fishermen are not obliged, in stormy weather, to keep the sea from the dearer of running to the coast, Nor of reaorting to one place fur lodging and accommodation. Ten sail of fishing •-ssels from Rothesay and Greenock, made their sprat:wee at the beautiful harbour of Papa Sound, 81ronaay, this season, for the first time, to purchase cargoes. They completed their cargoes, and sailed for • market, before vessels from the ante ports, which bed gone to other statiens, had gut twenty barrels on board ; and the masters •nd curers who bad made this experiment of a sew station, were highly gratified at the early tithing, the moderate price of the Ash, the safety of the biathlon, and convenience of the beach, on which they laid their weasels aground, and cured their Ash without thine charges of harbour dues, ground rents, or pier dues, which in these times are objects of some imp or t. awes to corers so • small scale. The first week of July Is considered the commeacemout of the fishing at Simony, - . nod a fortnight or three weeks after at Routh Rosa Willis, to which island the 6sliertnen prugeed when the carers at Stronsay exit rreeive so more 6sb.'

Oroonoko, by . appointment of Froncisc. , to occupy the place of the Jesuits who originally established ►hem. The mis 'inn of Attires lied dwindled from 320 Indians to 47. pits, the n umbers were still decressi rig : they consist ed of two different inhes—the one on the west of the Oroinniko, a dirty and disgusting people, called Gushilines, proud of the►r surge independence, averse from fixed lisbitsiimis and regular labour, end known to the MIIIIIOIIIIIIII% by the name of br- dios ndanles—the others, on the east. composed of the Macoes and Selma% r mild and tranquil people, not averse from agriculture, and not dif ficult to be brought under discipline. They sup. Fort themselves at present chiefly by the cultivation of the cassava; under the Jesting, they had melee, French beans, and other European vegetables : the fathers planted sweet oranges and tamarinds round the villages; and they possessed twenty or thirty thousand head of cows and horses in the neighbouring savanushs; whereas, now, bosh have disappeared, and horned cattle are tallied of by the luthams as a race that is wholly lost. M. de Humboldt enumerates many canoes of the present depopulation, some of which, however, existed in the lime of the Jesuits. Epidemic fevers, when attended with great mortality, hare frequently put whole villages to flight ; the appear once of small-pox among them ; a great drought, or any other unforeseen and unavoidable misfortinie has seldom failed to disperse them noiong the woods. But that which, according to our traveller, chiefly tends to det►opulste the settlements, " is the repugnance of the Indiana to the regulations of the missions : to which may be added, the tondo brity of a climate at once hot and damp. bad nourishment, want of care in the diseases of chil dren, and the guilty practice of preventing preg nancy by the use of deleterious herbs." To prevent the missions from being wholly de relied, the fathers make hostile incursions into the villages of the independent lodising, under the name of Entrodos, which are avowedly undertaken for " the conquest of 50u1.," though it is obviously necee•ury, in the first place, to secure the bodies. To effect this, the natives are usually attacked by night in their hovels, and their children seized and carried off in he distributed among the Indians of the missions, is serfs. An affecting instance of maternal tenderness, displayed on an occasion of this inhuman practice, is given by I. de Humboldt. which, lie justly observes, " proves how much the system calls for the care of the legislator la 1797 the missionary of San Fernando had led his Is flans to the banks of the Rio Gelation, on one of those hot. tile incursions, which are prohibited alike by religion and the Spanish law,. They roved in an holism but a Girshiha mother will' three children, two of whom were still Wants. They were occupied is preparing the Seer of cassava. Re elegance was impossible ; the father wan gone to fish, and the mother tried is vain to Are with her children. Scarcely ►ad she readied the h , when she was seized by the In dians of the mission, who go to Meat mew, like the Whites sad the Negroes its Africa. The mother and her children were boned, sad dragged to the bank of the river. The monk, seated in his boat, waited the issue of an eopeditioe, of which be partook not the danger. Had the mother made too violent a resistance, the Indians world have killed her, for every thing is permitted when they go to the conquest of posh (a la roequisla erpirilual), and it i. children in putt. cuter they seek to rapture, in order to treat them in the mis sion as !vitas, or slaves of the Christians. The primmer. were carried to San F do, in the hope that the mother would be imitate to find her way bark to her some by land. Far from those children who bed arcompenied their father on the day on which she bad bete earned of, this unhappy woman •hewed signs of the deepest despair. She attempted to take bark to her family the chntirea who hail been snitched away by the missionary, and fled with them repeat edly from the village of San Fernando, but the Judson. never failed to seize her anew; and the missionary, after having ceased her to be mercilessly beaten, took the cruel resolution of separating the mother from the two children, who hail been carried off with her. She was couveyed atone towards the missions of die Rio Negro, going up the Atabapo. Slightly bussed, she was seated at the bow of the boat, Igoe rant of the fate that awaited her; bet she judged by the di rection attic sun, that she was retuovisig farther and farther from her but and her native country. She succeeded in breaking her bonds., threw herself into the aster, and swam to the left bank of the Atabapo. The current carried her to a shelf of rock, which bears her name to this day. She laud ed, end took shelter in the wood., but the president of are missions ordered the Wiens to row to the shore, sad follow the tutees uf the Guahiba. le the evening she was brought back. St, etched upon the ruck (fa Piedra do la Madre) a tired peuisloond was iatlieted en her with those straps of manatee leather which serve for whips in that country. and with which the abodes are always furnished. This unhappy woman, ber hands tied babied her back with strung stalks uf morantrit, was then dragged to the mission utJavita.
