COCKING. Yesterday evening Mr. Green made an ascent in his Royal Nassau balloon, for the benefit of the widow of the late Mr. Cocking ; but, notwithstanding the peculiar claim: of Mrs. Cocking to public sympathy, we must say they did not appear to us to be responded to in a way they dcserre(i. there not being, we should think, more than twelve or thir teen hundred persons present, a very few in comparison with the number who assembled to witness the rash exwriinent of Mr. Cocking with the parachute. It is due, however, to the Proprietors of the Gardens to state that they, in flak most handsome manner, granted the use of the Gardens and the balloon, and Mr. Green generously gave his ser vices on the occasion. It is also stated that the New Lon don Gas Company made a present of the gas for the infla tion, the usual charge for which is 501. ; and the Surrey Yeomanry band, and other persons connected with the Gardens, likewise gave their valuable aid in behalf of the widow. The inflation of the balloon having been completed by about a quarter to seven, Mr. Green took his place in the car, accompanied by six gentlemen —one, a Mr. Webb, of the Stock Exchange ,; two s ons o f M r. H ughes, who is one of the Prop r i e t ors of the Gardens ; a Mr. Cuthbert, an optician ; and two gentlemen, whose names we did not learn. A young lady, a daughter of Mr. Cuthbert, like wise took her station in the car, but Mr. Green declined taking her, in consequence of the wind being high, and the difficulty he might experience in the descent ; and the lady, in relinquishing her seat, could ill conceal her vexation at the disappointment. All being prepared Mr. Green gave the word, and the balloon ascended most majestically, taking a south easterly direction, much to the gratification of the company present. BURTON ON REAL PROPERTY.

In the same street we find a paper in a window, on which is written, in large text—" A good plane cook want a sitation in a gentel family ivear there his no childeren." One of the most barefaced pieces of impudent " thimble-riggery," which the Tories are attempting to pass off in the statement of the returns, is the fact that they claim a gain of one in Coleraine, where Mr. E. Litton has been elected in the place of Mr. Alderman Copeland ; and they also claim a gain at Stoke-upon-Tront, where the same Alderman Copeland has re-placed a Liberal. If they could only make each of their candidates play double in this manner, they would undoubtedly have a majority in the coming Parliament. SWITZERLAND. CASE OF MR. MATHER.—The Helvetic, of the 4th inst., publishes the following reply of the Government of Zurich to the note of the British Minister relative to the succes sion of an English 'subject, Mr. Mather, lately deceased, in that canton : " The undersigned have the honour to acknowledge the receipt of the letter your Excellency addrct,Fed to them, under date the 4th of June last, with 'regard to the late William Mather. Our Financial Council has enabled us to give your Excellency the information you desire ; and from the expose which it has laid before us, it would ap pear that the case stands as follows : " Mr. Thomas Mather died in Zurich in 1536. He pos sessed at the time considerable property in the canton, having resided in it for many years, and obtained, under the name of Jacob Van Matter, the rights of a naturalized Swis citizen. As such he enjoyed the protection of the country, and the Government, whose duty it is to attend to the execution of the existing laws, thought it incumbent on it to take the legal and necessary steps, bath for the security of the heir and the p a y men t o f th e d ut i es accru i ng to the State. " The sequestration of the succesion, and the handing over the administration' of the property to the tribunals until the adjustment of the affair, was a measure founded in law ; and so natural that it was instantly ordered and executed by the Court. The measure, besides, was the more indispensable, as, at that time, there existed no au thentic act to prove, in an unquestionable manner, the va lidity of Mr. William Mather's title thereto. Having, how ever, from recent communications, ascertained that those n o proofslonger z a e r n re pressov t iN h l e at w h i c i r o , le we shall oftile i t n he th e e la p im oss o e f ss the ion State the succession ; but then, according to our laws, the inheritor is bound to pay a duty of 10 per cent. " The said Mather, in his quality of testamentary heir, has entered an opposition against all claim on the part of the State. According to our Constitution and the organic laws which form the complement thereof, all differences with re gard to the claims or rights of property being left to the de. cision of the tribunals, which alone are competent, without the interference of any other foreign or domestic power, the State, from the commencement of the suit in question, placed itself in the situation of a private individual, and the revenue, like any other interested party, bound to abide by the decision of the Courts conformably to the principle set clown by your Excellency, and to the above statement, it is obvious that it cannot be the wish or in the power of our Government or any other Government to encroach on the legal jurisdiction of our tribunals, who alone are called upon to institute an inquiry into the matter, and afterwards deliver a definite judgment with regard to the claim s of the state, on the succession of M. Jacob Van Matter, deceased in this canton. " Though we might allow the judiciary operations in the case to follow their course, we nevertheless deem it in our power (inasmuch as M. Mather may be desirous from pri vate motives, to dispose of the fact of the inheritance which lies in our canton), to modify the decisions, of our tribunals respecting the guarantees required for the execution of their decrees. We consequently offer to raise the sequestration laid on the property, the moment M. Mather shall have given the necessary bail, or obtltined the security of some respect able citizens of the canton for the amount of the duties ac cruing to the State out of the said property,i n virtue of the decision of the tribunals. " We hope that these explanations will place in their pro pel. light the question at issue between us, and we avail our selves of the opportunity to convey to your Excellency the assurance of our distinguished consideration.

Extract of a letter from Rome of the 22d ult. :—" Al though the cholera is [milting little progress on the frontier, the Government has taken all necessary measures for stor ing the magazines of the city. Great cleanliness is ob served in the streets, the drains are cleansed, and there is a talk of opening the Ghetto, where the Jews live, and where the population is so dense, that great mortality might be expected if the disease should break out here. Seine troops set out last n'ght to reinforce the sanatory cordon. At Benevento, where from the 13th to the 16th inst., 33 cases of cholera and 17 deaths have occurred, the Cardinal Archbishop has ordered prayer 3 to be offered up for the staying of the malady. Accounts from Palermo, received to-day, are rather more satisfactory, and the cholera there has nearly ceased from its ravages. Several personages of distinction have been carried off by it ; among others the Cardinal Archbishop Gaetano. At one time there were 200 deaths in a day at Palermo. Persons of the upper classes and medical men fled from the town, and the unfortunate population were left to themselves. Some noble instances of private charity are said to have been witnessed, and they mention an English gentleman as having peculiarly distinguished himself by his courage in attending upon the sick with the kindest assiduity, both by day and by night. This true philanthropist, whose noble conduct reflects ho nour upon his country, is a Mr. Cottrell. It merits to be made public." Accounts of the 26th ult. from Palermo confirm the statement of the cholera being on the decline in that city, not more than 80 or 100 deaths per day having occurred within the five or six days previous. Every family in Pa lermo has lost one or more of its members by the malady, which has attacked both old and young, sickly and robust. On the 4th, sth, and 6th of July the number of deaths was 4,550. The wife of the Governor Luogotenente and the Minister San Martino's wife arc dead. The report that the Governor was massacred, and that etesses were committed against persons and property, is stated to be in correct. All the inmates of the madhouse died, and also the director and six individuals of his family. At present, however, a great improvement has taken place ; the streets are no longer deserted, the shops are once more open, and business has resume] its course. It is at the same time stated that an extenvive mortality prevails in the country parts, especially at La B ag hi era, Abate, Coiini, Alcamo, and other adjacent places, IMPORTANT MEETING AT MONTREAL. The resolutions and speeches at the great and important meeting held at Montreal, on Thursday, the 6th of July will convey to the p eop l e o f E ngland some idea ()F t a le opinions entertained by a large portion of the inhabitants of Lower Canada on the subject of Lord John Russell's reso lutions. It is hailed as a triumph by the loyal and well-disposed party. The Monthly Courier, a Montreal paper, states the number of persons at the meeting to be at least 5,000. It was held on the Place d'Arnzee, under an unfavourable state of the weather, as the rain fell during a considerable portion of the time occupied by the pro ceedings. A slight delay having occurred in the appearance of elat portion of the meeting which came in from the Quebec and St. Anne's suburbs, the meeting did not actually organize till some minutes after one o'clock. The Hon. Gco. Mof fattwas called to the chair, and Wm. Badgeley And Leon Gosselin, Esqrs., were appointed secretaries. The Chair man stated the objects of the meeting in a short speech in the English language, after which the same duty was per formed by C. S. De Bleury, Esq., M.P.P., at somewhat greater length in French. The following is abridged from the repeat in the Morn* Courier of July 10 : The CHAIRMAN said I feel highly gratified in being cal led to preside over this very numerous and respectable meeting, and I thank you for your cordial reception or the nomination. You arc already apprised, gentlemen, through the medium of the requisition, which many have signed, of the object for which the present meeting has been called —namely, to take into consideration certain resolutions adopted at public meetings recently held in . various parts of the country. These meetings have been promoted and chiefly managed by the leaders of the House of Assembly —of that Assembly, which, after transmitting its petitions to the Imperial Parliament, and praying its intervention, and without waiting the result, plainly told that authority and the people of this province in September last, that it would not again proceed to business until its demands were first conceded, and which, in other words, amounts to this, that unless the Assembly is allowed to domineer over every other authority in the province, it rill neither make any legal appropriation for the regular and impartial adminis tration of justice, or the support of the civil government, without which society itself cannot be long held together, nor legislate for the wants of the province, however urgent those wants may be. Under these circumstances the King's Ministers have been reluctantly compelled to resort to the Imperial Parliament, through which they have carried a series of resolutions, intended for the most pressing neces sities of the case. lam far from thinking that the resolu tions meet the case as it should be met, but they go as for as the Ministers think it necessary to go at present. It could not be doubted that whenever the views of the As sembly should be brought fairly under the consideration of the Imperial Parliament, its decision would be widely at variance with the pretensions of the Assembly. The leaders of the letter are, in consequence, highly displeased, and are tryin g every means to produce discontent and disaffection in the country, in the hope of thereby intimidating the Go vernment ; numerous meetings have been held for this pur pose, raid the resolutions thereof are of the roost seditious and disorganising character, and in order that these may not be taken to be the sense of the country, which Messrs. Hurne and Roebuck would gladly find a pretext for assert ing, it becomes necessary that those who are opposed to them should speak out, as I feel persuaded this meeting will do, and distinctly disclaim any participation in a course of proceeding as repugnant to their feelings as, if successful, it would be destructive to their interests. C. S. Da linEerny, Esq., M.P.P. then proceeded to dis charge the same duty, in a French address, of which the following is a translation :—" Charged with the duty of ex plaining to you the object of this meeting, I undertake the task with the greater pleasure, because it affords me the op portunity o f po i nt i ng out to you the dangerous ,path into which certain persons governed by jealousy and thirst of power, and forgetful of your best interests would lead you. It is in extraordinary circumstances like the present that every citizen who is a friend to his country should be prudent—should hear, examine, and maturely deliberate, before deciding, either by his vote or his influence, to press down either the balance scales in which the great inte rests of his country are weighed. If I were addressing less intelligent men, or if I could for a moment believe that there is in this great assembly an individual entertain ing the sentiments of Mr. Papineau and his alente upon the subject of smuggling and resistance to the legal authorities, I would make it a duty to demonstrate in what abhor rence and contempt all nations hold the crimes which they propose to you, and what punishments these crimes entail ; but I will abstain, because I address men who know their duty, and who arc ready to acknowledge with me, that it is only the poor ignorant or the professed smuggler who nevertheless, lend a th eless, e ss x .i p l n s e g t e o ar ytoous inthe famous w c h o i c u i n i sel ; these must., have in view, in exciting the population of this province to the crime of smuggling. I must point out to you some of the lamentable effects which would thence result to the country, and afterwards show you that if grievances exist, and they do exist, the fault is to be attributed to the House of Assembly. It is evident that the object of Mr. Papineau and his satellites in proclaiming smuggling, is to dry up the source of the revenue, to annihilate the revenue received from imported merchandise and liquors, that revenue with;. out which the march of Government is stopped, and by means of which those laws which protect us and prevent society from failing to pieces, are enforced. Be you care ful, you above all who fear taxation, and do not stiffer your selves to be deceived by these pretended patriots, who, to impose upon your credulity, cease not to repeat in your ears that grievances exist, and that the British Govern ment, for from wishing to redress them, menaces you with coercion. These are false and lying assertions, as I will now prove them to be. Without mounting to the source of our political discussions, without even speaking of events which we all know, I will at once commence with 1834. The country then suffered under numerous grievan ces,—s great majority of the House of Assembly perceived the necessity of refusing appropriations, and of laying at the foot of the throne vigorous resolutions which should demon , strate to the Imperial Government the necessity of taking into its serious consideration the demanded ameliorations— I than belonged to that important majority, and I do not t repent it, for by secondi ng w i t h a ll my power the demands we made, I was assured that our appeal to the Imperial Government would not be in s ain ; nor was I deceived in iny expectations. The British Government, guided by those sentiments of justice and liberality which are so pe culiarly her own, and which are exhibited in none other, re plied in 1835 in the most open and satisfactory manner to all our demands. I will say more—she condescended to offer to you the olive branch of peace, which our impolitic and imprudent majority of the House of Assembly refused to accept. In September, 1885, a Civil Governor-General is sent to us, who upon his arrival expresses his readiness to co-operate with the Legislature in redressing all the real grievances which weigh upon the country ; moreover, he labours to redress those which lie within his own reach, and to form with the Legislature that good intelligence which alone can assure the advance of public business, and, con sequently, the public prosperity, But there exist blious • minds which ar c h orr ifi e d w i t h peace ; the Agitator of the day immediately perceived that his co-operation would, contrary to his wishes, effectually redress all our grievances, put a stop to agitation, and restore` everything to order. i r Instead of s e i z i ng t h e most favourable opportunity to ob tain the Comp l ete redress of our grievances, he loses sight of them, t o d ec l are open war upon a Government apparently men knewtit!sdnae lt disposed t o b e f avourable to us upon all points. These rm t p t r l o ie ve lo m s e s n o t, of the that E ducof c at io i n ia ß m i b ll i , v o ( f .,;a t n l7 ll, and many Bills e r others, at io n would could b restrain r r a e i n s result e o m f their a impolitic ain course n t° o r c I . They o n d the appropriations for the support of the Civil Govern ment, and they refused to proceed ie . th the public business ; in other words, the Constit u ti on a as suspended by their actions. I have already said, that if the House of As sembly had been willing to co-operate with the Govern ment, all our grievances would have been redressed ; I must prove my proposition, and show you how much those men, who are rushi ng to t h e i r ru i n and wish to drag you into this abyss with themselves, deceive you when they tell you that the evils of the country are to be attributed to the Executive. (Here Mr. De Bleury read an extract frF.m the G overnor ' s speech expressive of his Excellency's willingness to concur w i t h e i t h er or b ot h H ouses of the Provincial. Legislature in revising the exhorbitant fees complained o f, as we ll a s i n respect o f t h e rules of prac tice . of th e courts of j ustice and the proceedings of all the inferior trib una l s t h roug h out the province.) Where, then, lies the fault, if t h ese gr i evances continue to exist ? Is it not in that impolitic majority of the House of Assembly, who have refused to accept the gracious invitation of Go vernment, to co - operate - w i t h i t i n redressing all these grievances and all o th ers w hi c h oppress the country. Two opinions cannot exist upon this point. Yet in face of such an authentic document, by which the British Govern, ment has sho wn i tse lf di spose d to redress all the grievances of which we complain, persons are . found who stilt daily f a a l r 7s m e ) t , h c e ou ig n n t o ry ra m n e c n e , o: i s ll ome, to compel their belief that the Executive refuses to render us ass i s t ance ! ! H ow y a o r r c s o u n ff fi e d r nyourselves too beae'boout labour deceived eoplsef by o ot u lhe r rs t e r a u ; e ,,,,,,iroa friends, na cbijuzsee. ment and that of their family ? We must admit the right of the Imperial Parliament to intervene in the distressful position in which the House of Assembly has left the Pro vince. We should blame that blind majority which has forced an intervention which they might and should have prevented. We should loudly protest against all advice teaching smuggling and resistance to the legally constituted authorities, advice which unprincipled men have for some time given to the people—and finally, we should loudly declare our attachment to the British Empire, and how happy we are in being enabled to live under her just and liberal institutions. The first resolution was then moved by duels QUENSEL, Esq. The resolution is as follows: " That the unjustifiable refusal of the House of Assem bly of Lower Canada to make the necessary appropriations for the administration of justice, and the support of the Civil Government of this Province, has been the principal cause of the resolutions brought forward by his Majesty's Ministers, and adopted by the Imperial Parliament." This resolution having been read, A. GUGY, Esq., Advo cate, of Quebec, Member of the Provincial Parliament for Sherbrooke, being called, spoke, in French, nearly as lows :—Fellow Citizens,—Within the last few days, events have occurred with such astonishing rapidity, the anarchi cal party have become so audacious, have exhibited such en appearance of strength, that the friends of order have considered it incumbent on them to throw off their usual lethargy, in order to declare their opinions, and to support the Government. These, Gentlemen, are the causes of your meeting—this is the end and object of this assembly. The House of Assembly, the body of which I am a Mem ber, has offered the revolting spectacle of a deliberate re fusal to pay its debts, on pretext that an elective council is necessary to the welfiere of the people. lam not friendly to imperial intervention, but the present is an extreme case, and no other remedy could be found. I shall not avail myself of the absence of colleagues to touch upon any other subjects ; I shall restrict myself to the question of finance. I declare here, as I have already done in the House, that that body lays claim to nothing less than infal libility. The position which it has taken is calculated to work great injury.—(Loud and continued cheers.) The intervention complained of originated in these measures, and is the cause of the distress now so generally prevalent. We have about half a million of hard dollars in our coffers —a sum which, were it in circulation, would produce great and manifest advantages. The capitalist is paralysed, the merchant can neither buy nor sell, the artisan is unem ployed, the labourer without work. But if the House of Assembly had been willing to pay its debts, these funds would have been now in circulation, and all those evils must have been diminished—every branch of induetry would have revived, and we should have been exempted from the intervention of which our adversaries affect to complain. In fine, Gentlemen, such is the evil, and it lies at the door of the House. Such also is the remedy, and although the Assembly denied the remedy, the Imee rial Parliament has afforded it. Yet, we seek not to abo lish the House ; we desire merely to recal it to a sense of duty, that it may adhere to the course pointed out by the true interests of the people. While we reject its claim to infallibility, we equally deny its right to commit suicide, and we declare, as we are entitled to do, that as the ser vant of the people and not its master, it is bound to pro ceed with the work of legislation, and make laws applicable to our social state. The House of Assembly cermet at tempt to cope with the mother country. It must not in dulge in delusions and chimeras. It is bound to attend to our roads, to encourage public improvements of all kinds. It ought to protect our agriculture, to support our com merce, and foster every branch of industry.—(Loud cheers.) The resolution was then put and carried unanimously. The second resolution was then offered by W. Robert son, Esq., M.D., with a few remarks, and seconded by C. S. De Bleury, Esq., M.P.P. " That this meeting highly disapproves of the outrageous proceedings of the majority of the House of Assembly in their express refusal to pro ceed with the public business, in their declared resolve not to co-operate with the Government, and in their fixed de termination to continue the course of policy pursued by them, all which-are productive of great evil to the province gene• rally, ruinous to the commerce of the country, and fatal to the interests of the agricultural and labouring- classes." On this resolution, ADAM Timer, Esq., spoke nearly as follows :—I rejoice to think that there are so many thou semi citizens in Montreal—for many thousands, I am con fident, at this moment stand before and around me—who are not afraid to be stigmatised by the organs of s despi cable faction as illiberals, as bureaucrats, as coercionists. To be styled illiberals, forsooth, by those, who maintain, that they alone, as the representatives of the great body of the people, have any right to freedom of action, freedom of speech or freedom of thought ! To he styled bureaucrats, forsooth, by those, who, through violence, perjury and trea son, are striving to wrest from the leeitimate authorities the reins of the provincial g - ovenment ! To be styled coercionists, by those who, for the last 10, or, I may say, 20 years, have been labouring to coerce into their measures all the branches of the Government, and the Legislature, and all classes of their fellow-subjects within the province ! I shall piss in silent contempt the absurd and dishoaest charges of illibe rality and bureaucracy, which have been so freely and so frequently hurled at us ; and :us your time is valuable, I shall confine myself entirely to the charge of coercion, as being more peculiarly connected with the resolution, which I have the honour of illustrating and enforcing. Hal Eng lish Ministers been as fond of coereinz, as they have been of conceding, the paltry faction which we have this day as sembled to oppose, would, ere now, have been crippled, prostrated, and trampled in congenial mire. But, oa the contrary, new concessions have provoked new demands ; conciliation on the one side has emboldened coercion on the other ; Cabinet Ministers and Colonial Governors seem to have been created only fur submission, and patriotic repre sentatives of the people to have been created only for sedi tion. What public man or what public body have not our patriots, during these many years past, coerced, or attempted to coerce? By an organised system of slender and starva tion, they have attempted to coerce every provincial servant of his Majesty, whether known to he innocent or suspected to be guilty. By similar meanss, they have attempted, but without a shadow of success-1 say this with pride es a member of the same profession —to coerce the judiciary, on whose integrity and independence rest the rights of us all. They have attempted to coerce the Imperial Parliament into a sacrifice of the Eastern Townships in general, and the British American Land Company in particular. They have, last of all, attempted to coerce every man in time Pro vince, who values law as the guardian of property, liberty and life, by annulling the Constitution and extinguishing the legislature. Eighteen months ago, when we last met toge ther at Tattersall's, we were apparently aiming at the ends of a party, against the King's Ministers, the King's Repre sentative, and the King's Commissioners ; but the false move of our enemies has placed us on higher and hslier ground. You stand lucre as the champions of the Constitu tion, the avengers of the King, the conservators of the em pire. If you quailed not then, will you quail now ? No, gentlemen ; but you will turn to your enemies the same steady and firm front as the sea-girt homes of ourselves and our fathers turn to the billows of the ocean. This resolution also baying been carried by acclamation, P. E. LucitEnE, Esq., came forward as the proposer of the third resolution, on which he made a short but appropriate address in both languages. The Resolution was seconded by S. BAGG, Esq., and read as follows :—" That this meet ing cannot too forcibly express its abhorrence of the im moral and disorganising effect of the Resolutions adopted, and measures recommended, at public meetings reocntly held in various parts of this Province ; and that this meet ing reprobates them as detrimental to the welfare of the country, and directly opposed to the sentiments of fidelity to his Majesty and devotion to his Government, generally entertained by his loyal Canadian subjects throughout the province." C. SWEENEY, Esq., spoke on the third resolution as fol- lows :—Gentlemen, on an occasion like the present, in the midst of a vast assembly-Itninnated by one spirit, and in tent on one object--I feel myself irresistibly impelled to say ju st heard few word s i n f avour o f t h e reso l ut i on th a t y o u have heard read. It, embraces, as you must have observed, two distinct propositions. Ist. The expression of our abhor. ranee of the destructiv e a nd disorganising effect of the re solutions adopted and the measures recommended at public meetings recently held in various parts of this province. 2dly. To express our reprobation of them as detrimental to the welfare of this country, and directly opposed to the sen timents of fidelity to his Majesty, and devotion to his Govern. ment g enerally entertained by his loyal Canadi an su bj ects throughout this province. On the first head it will not be necessary for me long to dwell or detain your attention. The gentlemen who preside at this meeting, and the speak ers who have preceded me have, with talents far beyond any I can lay claim to, and in language more forcible than I pos sess, completely unmasked th e treasonous and traitorous designs of that faction from which these resolutions emanate. They have ol ; , , y shown •to you that that.iaction has hi therto de; ;' its power f rom th e peop l e f rom f a lse represen tationse/fe to them, an d h as b ase l y a b use d ch a t p ower de lege 00 ,i o them for the gond of the sehjects g erterally, and for tre advancement of the interests and welfare of this pro vince, by wielding it solely to further their own t elfish and corrupt purposes, to the utter neglect of the taue interests: of their constituents, and in a manner calculated re in volve this province in utter ruin. I might her con clude ; I cannot, however, allow this opportunity to a ass by without making one appeal to my fellow countryme 1. Irishmen ! to you would 1 make this appeal ; beware of the seductions of these traitors—l know that they are busy with you—l know that they seek to imbue your minds by every argument likely to attach your sympa thies, however false, with dissatisfaction and discontent ; they are aware of the excitability of your t empee entee t.— of your unsuspecting and confiding natures—of yore- werm and generous impulses ; and they would lead you to be lieve that the wrongs our country has suffered, the opprec sions under which she has so long Immured, but which r thank God are progressively, and I sincerely hope. and be lieve speedily to be redressed, follow you to this country and equally oppress you here. They endeavour to pour the poison of dissatisfaction - end diScontent into your hearts, and then with the fawning of the sycophant, pretend to sympathise in your distress, and as if impered by a disin terested and generous impulse, they offer to make common. cause with you to redress your wrong. In a word, they flatter to ensnare and then betray you ; and what is their object ? To make tools of you : to use your phesical allergies to forward them in their selfish, corrupt, treasonous, and mad Icareer. Y ou w ill a l ways h ave the post of honour, you will be thrown into the' breach, you will bear the brunt of the battle; while the coward Papinecu ac: 1 his cowardly myrmidons will lurk behind, and when they fail (as if they dare make the attempt, will be their inevitable fate,) they will have at least this satisfaction, that the blood of Irish men has been freely spent, and over your dying agonies they will mock at and deride you as at once their dupes and their victims. Irishmen, you know, or at least most of you do, and those who do not will soon discover, that that faction is jealous of, hate;, yet fears you. Do you ask for proof? I answer, ‘rho was it, the mask of hypocrisy being for a moment laid aside, in al luding to the tide of emigration—toasonr arrival in this the country of . -your adoption, upbraided the British Govern ment in terms the . most seurri!ous, with pouring on their beach (as they were pleased to term it) the out.scourings of their gaols, the scum of their population, the robber, the assassin, and all those who being tainted with crime dared not remain at home. Who, I ask ? Papineju and his faction. Who was it taxed you at your landing on this shore, your birthright as British subjects ? Who was it va;nly threatened to prevent your landing,'or drive you back to perish in the waters of. the St. Lawrence? Papineau and his faction. Were you not branded in every-hireling print of that faction, with the corteous appellation of starving paupCrs, adventu rers, and foreigners, as if a British subject could be a foreigner in any region where the flag of his country waves in the ascendant. Foreigners—forsooth ! ! 'Tis nearly 80 years since that question was discuseed and finally deter mined—do y ou as k me, where ? I answer, on the heights of Abraham ! And now let Inn for an instant turn your atten tion offered to you by his Majesty's Government, It invites you to accept of your birthright !ts subjects to make Your rest ing piece and your home in this colony, so highly favoured by Divine Providence, with a healthy and salubrious climete, a rich, fertile and prolific soil, watered by its noble and far spreading rivers, and its inland seas. It presses you to ac cept of the welcome which its noble forests so gracefully ware towards you—to possess yourself of that wealth, comfort and independence which its earth yearns to unbosom and . yield to your perseverance and indus try ; and it guarantees to you the protection of your property and your lives, and the free and unrestrained exercise of your civil 'and religious rights. Then. let not t ra it ors swerve you front your allegiance, let not the example of one renegade Irishmen influence you. One who, all other tredes failing, has basely sold himself to a faction for filthy lucre ; his birthright for a mess of pot tage. One, who. has proved himself alike a traitor to his King, his country, and his God. Then let not traitors, I say, cheat you of your birtlright, but let them feel that y ou have disco vere d t h e i r treachery and treasonable designs, and that you contemn and despise them. In conclusion, I will again repeat, that it is with satisthction I have wit nesanithe insane appeal of that faction to the people of this province, as breathed fOrtlein their treasonous resolutions, because it has afforded to every loyal sal jest an opportunity at once to record his abhorrence of these measures, his fidelity to his King, and his devotion to his Government, and thereby to strengthen the sinews of Ora: Government, and thus enable it to strangle at its birth this monster, Tree,- son, anti hurl back upon the beads of the traitors from whom it catenates, the merited punishment of so base a crime „ then leave them to the withering coutempt and heartless execrations of every loyal subject, of every honest man. After the passing of the resolution, the fourth and last was proposed by the Hon. P. APGIee, as follows :—" That this meeting is impressed with the conviction that the real and acknowledged grievances of his Majesty's subjects in Lower Canada will be fully redressed by his Majesty's Go vernment—that the continued connection of Lower C mada with the Parent State is essentially necessary for the pros perity and improvement of the province, and that any at tempt to disturb that connection and produce a dismember ment of the empire, is directly contra's) , to the opinion, as it is absolutely opposed to the wishes and interests of this meeting."—Carried with applause. The thanks of the meeting, with their best wishes for his safe passage on his approaching visit to Eogland, and for his happy return to this city, were then voted by acclama tion to the' Hon. Chairman, on the motion of Charles Penner, Esq., of Lachine ; after which, with three times three cheers for the King and British connection, and three cheers more for the King and Constitution, the meeting dissolved. Colonel Chesney arrived on Tuesday night in Do ver-street, Piccadilly, from India, overland. The Colonel appears in good health cad spirits. ROCKET COMMUNICATION WITH VESSELS IN DISTRESS.-011 Thursday, A. G. Carter, Esq., Ordnance storekeeper of the citadel at Hull, the inventor of a most valuable and ingenious contrivance for effecting a commu nication between 'vessels in distress and the shore, by means of lines carried out by rockets, exhibited a number of expe , riments at the North-end of Princes' Pier, with a view to the establishment of rocket stations on this coast. A few rockets were fired at the middle of the day, but the princi pal number of experiments was tried at nine o'clock in the evening. The means by which his plan is effected is most ingenious ; a strong rocket case, of from one to two pounds weight, is mada of iron, and this is filled with Congreve flee ; into the centre of the firing Part of this the stick is screwed into an iron pocket, and the line, a thick and heavy twine, is attached to a loop at. the end of•the stick. Before firing, the rocket is placed into a- kind of stand capable of being raised to any degree of elevation, and with this aim' is taken at the object intended to be fired at. For the ex periments in the preserit instance, - a steamer was moored about 250 yards s from the pier. The wind at the time was blowing strong across the vessel from the S.W. The first rocket fell short, the elevation not being sufficiently high at the time. At the second trial the rocket went beautifully right over the vessel, dropping the line across her, and car rying it out at least four hundred yards. A number of other trials at various ranzes acre then made by several gentlemen present, and the line was three or four tines carried across the vessel, and twice the rocket fell on the poop, amidst the loud plaudits of hundreds of specta tors, who had assembled to witness the experiments. Two of the rockets without lines attached were then fired in the direction of the Rock Light, to show the extent of their range. 01)C of them went an amazing distance, and ap peared almost to reach the Light. Indeed their force must be considerable, for the weight of line they carry out is about As. Some messenger-rockets for conveying let ters were then fired. Terse are of an entirely different de scription. t hey are much larger, and made of pape r lik es the common rocket, but have a compartment in the head for holding letters or papers. One of thernwas fired to wards Woodside, right i n th e t ee th o f the wind, and very nearly reached its destination, going upwards of a mile. These, however, haVe not the tremendous force of the iron-'eased rockets. The average number of times which the rocket lines crossed the vessel, and when the rockets were directed more by way of 'experiment than with care, was about three times out of five. As a means of commu nication from a vessel in distress to the shore, they must be invaluabhi, as if the vessel be at all withi u distance, namely, about 400 yards, the rocket is sure to carry a line ashore, as all the aim which would be required would be to turn its head to the shore and give it a good elevation.—Liver pool Standard. A few days since the labourers who are excavating the cloaca inagnm or common !ewer in High -street, St. Giles, discovered dust opposite the Church two elm trees, in a high state of preservation, at a depth of about 15 feet under the surfaCe of the ground, lying completely across the part undergoing excavation, and being [wand to each other, though at a distance.of several yards. - They were obliged to be sawn throUgh, and the pieces which were re moved to the surface were each about nine feet long, and five in circumference. • These trees are supposed to have belonged to a forest which once covered this and the sur rounding district, and by reference to.the,parish registers and other books it has been found that they must have lain in their recent situation upwards of 600 years. On exa- Mination the exhumed timber was found - to be as sound as if it bad bee n felled only a few months. The superin eumbent strata were composed of common rubble, clay, an d sand, the whole of which were remarkably dry to the above depth. ~-.. /-it i 2 IC4 I i-- -/ -- / c ie--- A-- ee-() ',(()_: - .(-, (------'' t-i-z--- - ": ' ._....t.b...,_,.. .....,,,,,- . .
