To those who are desirous of obtaining a knowledge of the most esteemed Authors of Greece and Rome, but possess not the means or leisure for pursuing a regular course of study, the present undertaking must prove a va luable acquisition. So diversified are the objects to which general educa tion is at present directed, that sufficient time cannot be allowed, in most instances, to lay foundation of an ade quate acquaintance with the most popular Authors in the Greek and Latin Languages. In those instances even, in which the object has been attained—where the taste has been formed, and the habit of occasional recurrence to' the Classics has been preserved—the facility of reference to a Series of correct and elegant Translations must afford pleasure, and occasional assistance,' even to the scholar. To him who, as Dr. Knox observes, although engaged in other pursuits, is still anxious to " retain a tineture of that elegante and liberality ofseentinietti which 'the mind ac quires by a study of the Classici, and which contributes more to form the true gentleman, than all the substituted ornaments of modern affectation," such a Collection will, it is confidently hoped, prove acceptable. As the learned languages do not form part of the educa tion of Females, the only access which they have to the valuable stores of antiquity is through the medium of cor rect translation. The Selection is intended to include those Authors, whose works may with propriety be read by the youth of both sexes ; and it will be obvious that the nature of the publication is of so permanent a character, as to prove equally interesting to posterity as to the present subscribers. The whole will be prevented to the public in a Cheap, Elegant, and Uniform Size, forming a complete " Family Classical Library," alike useful for the purposes of instruc tion and amusement. Indeed, as Dr. Parr says, "if you desire your son, though no great scholar, to read and re flect, it is your duly to place into his hands the best Trans lations of the best Classical Authors." A BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCH will be rrefixed to each Author; and NOTES will be added, when necessary, for the purpose of illustration. The importance attached, in the present day, to Trans lations of the Classic Authors may be estimated by the fact, that a series has been recently published in France, and that another in the Russian language is now in pro gress, under the immediate sanction of the Imperial Go vernment. The excellence, as Orators and Historians, of Demos thenes, Cicero, Herodotus, ana Xenophon, will place them foremost in the collection of Prose Authors ; these will be followed by Thueydides, Livy, Sallnst, Tacitus, Homer, Virgil, and Horace, will justly take precedence among the Poets.

It will do this for several reasons: partly from its name, still more from the curiosity which has been raised respecting the alleged eminent station of its writer, but most of all from its intrinsic qualities and characteristics. ' The Exclu sives' is emphatically and ' exclusively' a picture of fashionable life at the present day : we will add, in un qualified and unhesitating terms, that it is generally speak ing at once the truest, the fairest, the most intelligible, and the most comprehensive picture of that life, which has yet been presented to the world."—Court Journal.

Michael Wallace, Lieutenant- Governor of the Province, (locum tenens.) VIDE-TfLESIDENTS-The Hon. T. N. Jeffery, Member of the Council ; Samuel Cunard, Eqq. Agent for the Province in England—John Bainbridge, Esq. King's Arms-yard, Coleman-street. _ _ Bankers in Lonilon—Messrs. Jones, Lloyd, and Co. The BOARD of DIRECTORS of the Shubenaceadie Canal Company, incorporated by an Act of the Legislature of the Province, are desirous of raising the sum of 27,0001. (for the purpoFe of completing the works now in progress,) for which the Company have empowered their Agents in London to issue Certificates of Shares of 251. each, Halifax currency (22/. 10s. British sterling), bearing interest at the rate of Five per Cent. per Annum, (commencing from the date of the certificate, and payable half-yearly, on the sth of January and sth of July in every year, without de duction, at tl e Office of the Company's Agent in London), and entitled also to share in the surplus profits of the Na vigation. As security for the due payment of interest on the Cer tificates issued in London, the Company have spnially appropriated—first, the annuity of 1,5001. Halifax cur rency, (1,350/. British sterling), granted by the Provincial Legislature in aid of this Canal, for the term of ten years, commencing January 1, IS3O ; secondly the surplus re venue arising from tells, rents, &c., which are specially charged with the payment of interest on these certificates, prior and in preference to the payment of interest or divi dends on Shares issued in Nova Scotia. With the exception of 2,729 yards enly of artificial cuttings, the Shubenaccadie Canal is a natural line of navi. gation, extending across the centre of the province, about 60 miles in length, from Dartmouth, in the harbour of Halifax, to the Mason of Mines in the Bay of Fundy, thus opening a direct communication with the most fertile parts of the country. The works (including fifteen locks), are divided into five sections, of which three are already com pleted ; the remainder will be finished by the year 1531, when the entire navigation will he ready for the passage of vessels of 100 tons burden, drawing eight feet water. In addi , ion to the usual agricultural 'produce of the country, the line through which the Canal passes abounds in slate, coal, timber, (of superior quality,) and gypsum ; the latter an article of regular exprt from Halifax to the United Stito4. The turns already expended on this navigation are 13,5001. sterling, granted as a donation by the Provinci tl Legislature, and 16,2001. tubscriesi in shares at Halifax ; in. addition to which his Majesty's Government have agreed to sanction an advance of 20,0001. By a clause inserted in the Provincial Act, holders of Shares in this undertaking are exempted fiom any liability under the laws of partnership. Further particulars, including plans and progress of the work, and a report thereon by Mr. Telford, may be pe rused by applying personally to J. and T. MOXON, 69, Old Broad-street, City. London, December 4, 1829. GRAIN SOWING ExTRAORDINARY.—On Friday night, in consequence of the windows of a gra nary in North Leith being blown open by the gale, some of the streets in that quarter were so covered with grain in the morning, that the natives were obliged to rah, their eyes before they could be cc winced that a heavy fall of snow had not taken place during the night. In a short time, however, their doubts were removed by witnessing the asaemblage of a crowd of old women and children gathering this to them excellent windfall wherewith to feed their fowls.— Caledonian Mercury. A most distressing event has jut occurred in this city. Two very respectable young men, Mr. .I.tm Oau, a surgeon, aged 25, and his brother JotiN, aged 18, wept to bed on Saturday night, in perfect bealth, And on Sunday they were found dead, M,. JANES Oltß bad been called up at twelve o'clock to visit a patient, and on Lis return, betwixt one and two, it is supposed that he considered the fire in the room to be com pletely out, and, to prevent cold or back-smoke coming down the chimney, had applied the damper, the. consequences of which were fatal. On their aypctir ing at the usual time at • brez..kfa;,-; servants were re peatedly detired cab them; but no answer having been returned, their mother went into the room, an I found her two sons lyin g each in his bed a corpse. Mrs. Oaa is a widow, and cliesewere her only sons. The late Mr. One, their. father, was a gentleman( of landed property near 'Elilbarchan,-; gra v e,' Herald. The late Bishop of Rochester, under his pa- tent of Receiver-General, was entitled to an an cient annual salary of 2511. 3s. 4d.; and, as bail►ff of the bailiwick of St. James, to an annual salary of 1781. ss. ; and also to a poundage of 51. per cent. upon all monies collected and paid over by him, in virtue of his office ; and the amount of the rental, upon which that poundage was payable, being about 45,0001. per annum ; the,collecting of the same amounted, upon an average, to 2;6791. Bs.4d. per annum. By the 10th section of the Act, 56th Geo. c. 16, it is allowed to every Receiver, upon making up MS animal accounts, to • charge and retain a sum, not exceeding 5/. per cent-, upon all such monies as he shall collect, as a compen sation for his trouble in collecting and receiving the same, or such other compensation, as should receive the approbation of the Lords of the Treasury. But, after fkilly considering tha ne ture and extent of the Land Revenue of the Crown, within the Middlesex District, and of the duties to be performed by the Receiver to be appointed, it appeared to us, that, in this in stance, a remuneration by a fixed salary, would be preferable to the allowance of a poundage, and that a salary of 1,000/. a year, would be a very moderate remuneration for the execution of the duties of the office in question ; and having recommended Mr. John Kirkland, of Whitehall, and Mr. William Drake White, of this department, as fit and competent persons to execute the office of Joint Receiver, those gen tlemen were appointed by us to that office, with I their Lordships' approbation, at the salary be fore named. Under this arrangement, the Crown Rents in the county of Middlesex, (including the rents of the Regent-street estate, amounting to about 35,0001. a-year, which had heretofore been se parately collected, and for collecting which a re muneration equal to about 5001. per annum was allmsed), forming a total rental of upwards of 80,0001. per annum, and being nearly double the amount of rents in the receipt of the late Pa tentee, have been collected, for the last two years, at less than a third of the expence, which attended the receipt of the same revenue under the an cient establishment. LIGHT-HOUSES. The question, how far it might be proper to renew the leases of Light-houses held under grants from the Crown, and about to expire ; or whether it would be advisable to place those lights under the management of the Trinity Board, which we stated to be under the consideration of the Lords of the Treasury at the date of our last Report, has been decided by their Lordships, so far as respects the leases of the Light-houses at \Vin tertoitness and Orfordness, held by Lord Bray brooke, and at Dungeness, held by Thomas 'Wil liam Coke, Esq., ALP., the former of which leases expired on d►e 13th of April, 1826, and the latter on the 24th of June last. In both cases, the lessees were, by the old leases, empowered to levy a duty of Id. per ton on all vessels outward and homeward bound, passing those lights. Two of the Light-houses, held by Lord Bray brooke, stand upon the private freehold estates of his Lordship, and the other upon lands now, and long since, in his family. A very con siderable sum of money had been recently laid out, in rebuilding one of the Light-houses, in the expectation entertained, that a renewal of the ;rant from the Crown would be obtained ; and all the lamps, reflectors, and other implements for keeping up the establishment, are the private property of his Lordship. In the case of Dungeness, Mr. Coke had re cently rebuilt the Light-house, at a great ex pense, and is, in like manner, the owner of all the articles belonging to it. - _ _ On full consideration of all these circum stances, and also of the recommendations of the Committees of both Houses of Parliament on the Foreign Trade of the Kingdom, that the duties on Light-houses should be diminished; having also regard to the indemnification, or compensation, to which the parties would have been entitled, upon transferring to the puOlie their property and interest in the Lighthouses, and the buildings connected therewith : the Lords of the Treasury, by their Minutes, dated 28th March, and 16th May, 1828, were pleased to signify to us their opinion. That renewed leases, in both cases, be granted, for a period of twenty-one years from June last, of the right to collect tolls upon all vessels passing the said Light-houses, at the rate of one halfpenny per ton, instead of one penny, as heretofore, giving due notice that such reductions were to take place from the commencement of the renewed leases ; that the parties immediately, and at their own expellee, take all measures necessary for conveying and assigning to the Crown, at the expiration of their leases for twenty-one years, all the said . Light-houses, and buildings connected therewith, and the sites on which they are erected, with all convenient and necessary ways and accesses thereto ; that, from the commelice ment of the new leases, Lord Braybrooke and Mr. Coke render and deliver to 114 4,1141,14 ac counts of all toils collected upon vessels passing the said Light-houses, and o f th e expen di ture, in respect thereof; and after deducting the ex pense of the collection, and of maintaining the lights, pay over one moiety to us, for the use of his Majesty, retaining the other moity for them selves; that the Members of the Corporation of the Trinity Uotize, their officers and servants, with the consent of the Treasury, have, at all times, access to the said Light-houses and pre mises, and that th-,t3 lessees attend to, and carry into effect ally suggestions of that Corporation, for the better regulation or improvement of the lights. And warrants having been •.;,I)sequently issued by the Lords of the Trea.wxy, authorising and requiring us to grant Icaus an the terms and conditions set ftu:til in the said Minutes, such nave been granted aecordin , dy; and they contain full and special covenants conceruing all the matters before mentioned, DERELICT 4 LJ iN LINCOLNSHIRE. Tb.9Foceedings adverted t o i n cur l ast two Triennial, Reports, which, under the Ovice'of the Law Offices of the Crown, we had first in , §tituteu in tne )'ear MP) for Tecoverins*, on be half of his Nl , j , :stv„ a tract of4 - iont I,lo.,acres land on the LineolnAire coast, idleged to 'lave been formerly covered by tile sea; " 1)0 t hkb, by reaill ~ f the casting up or mud arm sand by the tide, had gradually heightened s , a; not to be overflowed, and thereby become have terminated adversely to the claims we had been advised to set up. Under an inquisition held in November, 1819, possession of those lands was taken, on behalf of his Majesty; but the Lords of the different Manors, to which the lands adjoin, having tr.:- versed that inquisition, and the question as to the respective rights of the Crown, :Did the pantie; claiming in right of their manors, having been tried, first at the Assizes for Dedn , in the pring of 1823, and again in the Court King's Bench in the year 182-1, and finally upon an Appeal to the House of Lords in .loly last, the Judgment of their Lordships was, as we have before stated, against the claims of the Crown. This decision is of great importance, not only as it regards the claim in question, but as setting at rest similar claims, to the extent of many thousand acres, in different parts of the king dom ; and although the investigation has ter minated unfavourable to the Crown, and has been attended with considerable expellee, we felt that we could not, consistently with our duty, relinquish a claim of so much importance, and concerning which great difference of opinion appeared to have been entertained by the most eminent law authorities, until the .qta , ction had received the most ample discussion, and been decided by the highest legal trilumal in the kingdom. WASTE LANDS AT3tASTINGO:' In the year 1826, we received information that a Considerable tract of land at Hastings, formed entirely of sand and shingle, and whieb, from this and other circumstances mentionedtto us, had evidently been part of the sea shore, had been taken possession of, as waste laud, partly by seizure without grant or authority from any one, and partly under an alleged sancti , A of a' lease from the Earl of Chichester, as Owner OD_ Lord of the Rape, or Hundred of Hastings, or from the Corporation of flutings, on the ground that such lands were within the Jibei tv of that town ; and were farther informed, that nu merous small dwelling-houses, warehouses, or manufactories, had been erected upon. the said lands. But it having appeared, upon a careful irivestigation of the grants, unArr which the claims of Lord Chichester and the Corpora tion of Hastings were brought forward, that such claims could not be supported, we constlted his Majesty's Law Officers, as to the most allvisable mode of proceeding fur asserting and e...tabli6- ing the claims of the Crown to the lands in question ; , and an inquisition having, under their_ advice, been held in December, 1827, the King's title was found by the Jury summoned upon that inquisition, to two parcels of land ; one consist ing of 7A. IR. 10P. and the other IA. Oa. 99P., with the various buildings thereon : and the parties in possession of or claiming tha build ings, being, we apprehend, well satisfied that they could, on no good grounds, have resisted the claims of the Crown, have not made any -ap plication for leave to traverse the in(;uisition,. within the period allowed by law for that purpose. In order to obtain possession of this pro perty, or a full and complete acknowledgment of . the right of the Crown to the same, we pro ceeded, under the advice of the Attorney and. Solicitor General, to cause declarations in-eject ment to be served upon the. different occupiers, many of whom have, within these few years, erected their buildings, after they w ere appr i ze d of the claims of the Crown, and in defiance of repeated notices that those claims would be in sisted upon ; but there are some others, who built at a much earlier period, and in ignorance of such claims. As the immediate resumption of the property, and the entire removal of all the occupiers on short notices, would have been attended with great inconvenience to many cf them, who would hive found it difficult to provide themselves with other accommodations, we have entered into ar rangements with a great majority of the parties, for allowing them to continue, as tenants to the Crown, for a farther period of seven years, upon such terms as, under the circumstances of their' respective cases, seemed to us to be fair and rea sonable, and according to which, the rents pay able to the Crown will, in the whole, amount to about 1,5001, a-year. ISLAND OF ALDERNEY. The Crown property in the Island of Alder ney, formerly in lease to Lieutenant-Colonel Le Mesurier, but surrendered by him, and placed under our management, as mentioned in our last Report, consists of great and small tithes, quit rents, harbour dues, corn rents, and a small farm and mill, which, in the whole, produce, on an average, about 3501. a-year, while the pre sent charges upon thc, land revenues of the Crown, in respect of that Island, amount, as will be seen by the statement thereof, to 925/. a-year, As it cannot be for the interest of the Crown to retain the possession of property so situated, and in the inanagenlent of which so little con troul can be exereived, sales have been made, by public tender, of the corn rents, farm, and mill ; and we most strongly advise the. disposal of the remainder, whenever there shall be a probability of making sales at fair and reasonable prices, A singular elopenzent is said to 'nave taken place t. of a widow, i n n 8. sheet, wher e was received by her d e sti ne d lord.
