THE COLONIES. CANADA. (From the'Quebec Gacettes - to the 27th 0.1.hdy.1 A Summer Tour front Philadelphia to Quebec and back via Albany and the . falls of Niagara. From this city -to Albany, the journey is de- 4 lightful, and may be accomplished in little more than two days. Good stages start from Albany for Lewistown every day in the week. The horses are excellent, and travel with great rapi dity.—The roads in some places hilly and rough but generally speaking good, particularly that called the Bridge Road, which extends from the Genesee to the Niagara river. The accommoda tions at some of the public houses, are such as may natnrally be expected in a new country, and for which every allowance must be made. Milk in all its purity however, can be procured every where on the road ; and if the traveller were to take with him from Albany to Utica, some fresh crackers (as the bread most frequently is very inferior in quality), he would fare very well. After travelling 5 days over a distance -of 320 ,miles, you reach Lewistown, much fatigued, and on your arrival feel no extraordinary partiality for stage travelling.. But if not disposed to un dergo so much fatigue, you can bend your course from Utica to Sackett's harbour, between which place and Lewistown, a steam-boat is constantly plying; much, however, calculated to produce the highest gratification, would be lost by such an arrangement. The ride along the banks of the Mohawk to Utica, brings to view some of the most beautiful and some of the wildest and most romantic scenes. The Oneido nation of Indians—the gypsum quarries at Cayuga—the bridge across that lake, more than a mile in length—the noble and picturesque Falls of the Genessee river, near Rochester—the wonderful bridge just completed over that river—the Ridge Road composed of sand, gravel, and marine shells, and extending a' distance of eighty miles through a marshy soil—the wilderness, which continues for about ten miles, etc., would none of them be seen. Some persons at Canandiagua, take the stage to Buffalo, but the other route is considered preferable. There is but one public house immediately in the neighbourhood of the Falls, which is For syth's, and of this many complaints are justly made. About three 'quarters of a mile from there, a most excellent house is kept by an old and obliging Scotsman ; of the name of Clive ) who • - • wants nothing but encouragement to give perfect satisfaction to his guests. Here there are many oljaects of curiosity ; a burning spring a short distance above the Falls— the whirlpool, and the Devil's Den, a few miles below—Queenstown heights, rendered memora ble by the death of General. Brock—the Tusca rora nation of Indians, (in whom the excellent effects of civilization are strikingly exemplified) —Lunday's lane Bridgewater—Fort Niagara — Fort George, &c. The Mitish: Steam-Boat Frontenac, which is very large and commodious, is constantly passing between Fort George and Kingston, by the way of York. Sir James Yeo's fleet, including his 110 gun ship, &c., are laid up at Kingston ; Commodore Chauncey's at Sackett's harbour. A, team-boat also plies be tween Kingston and Prescott, where it is ex changed for the Canadian boats or what are cal led stage boats, resembling our Durham boats, for the purpose of descending the St. Lawrence, and its rapids, to La Chine. Those who are not disposed to descend the rapids, may be accom modated by a stage, which- runs along the bank of the river. Accidents seldom, or perhaps never occur, where the steersman and his men understand their business, which is almost uni versally the case• Persons who have never seen rough water, nor heard the roar of the billows, of course feel some alarm; but such as have crossed the Atlantic, appear to enjoy the tumult that surrounds them. La Chine, (so called from the circumstance of a patty having started from that place during the time that Canada belonged to France, for the purpose of discovering a west ern passage to China) is situated on the Island of Montreal. There is a mountain of considerable elevation on the Island about three miles from the city. On the opposite side of the St. Law rence in sight of La Chine, there is a regular built town belonging to the Cochwenaga Indians. Montreal contains a population of about 24,000 souls. Its Cathedrals—its Nunneries—its tin= roofed Houses reflecting the rays of the sun, ra ther unpleasantly to the eye—its narrow and crooked streets, Ste. will attract the attention of the Philadelphian as novelties. From this place to Quebec, this noble river rolls through a sus- cession of villages, and steam-boats, with excel lent accommodations, are constantly plying be tween them, and sometimes pass over the whole distance in 17 hours. The fortifications at the latter place are, in point of strength, equalled by few military posts in the world ; the Falls of Montmorency also deserve attention. In returning, the route by the way of Boston may be taken : between which place and. Mon treal, a line of stages is established ; or that of the stage to St. John's on the river Sorel—thence in one of the best steam-boats in every point of view in the world, up Lake Champlain to Shore ham in Vermont, nearly Opposite the old fort 'Ticonderoga, at the outlet of Lake George— thence by a small steam-boat to Cald well, where a carriage may be obtained to go by the way of Saratoga and Ballstown to Albany. Isle aux Noix (one of the strong holds of Lower Canada) twelve miles from St. John's—Lacole Mill— Chaszr—the scene of McDonough s victory (in sight of Plattsburgh, 24 miles from the lines, and 38 from St. John's) between Crab Island and Cumberland head—Burlington, Vermont, 50 miles front the lines—the Green Mountains, etc. are passed in the journey from St. John's to Shoreham. The upper falls of the outlet of Lake George,,as well as the Mills erected there, and Glenn's falls on the road to Saratoga, are worthy of observation. The following distances are not pretended to be perfectly accurate, haying been principally derived from passengers, inn-keepers, etc., but sufficiently so for the general purpose of a tra veller. Having experienced the want of some thing of the kind myself, I have taken the trot]) ble of gixing this dry detail with a hope that might be useful to others.

C.) JULY 6.—Very early on Sun day morning last, a large house nearly finished, building for Major Loring, was discovered to be on fire. The flame's made such progress, when observed, that it was impossible to save any part of it. From various circumstances there is too great reason to apprehend that it was the work of an incendiary. His Excellency the Lieut. Go- [PRICE SEVENPENCE. vernor has issued a Proclamation, offering a reward of 1001. for the discovery of the principal offal- der or offenders. NIAGARA, JULY 13.—One day's delay in this week's publication, has enabled us to announce the arrival of his Excellency Sir Peregrine Malt- land this morning (Friday) in the steam boat Frontenac, from York. A salute was fired from Fort George on his Excellency's arrival. Died, at Fort Erie, on the 19th June, 18.20, Margaret, wife of William Stanton, Esq. Deputy Assistant Connuissw Ge'- neral, whose irreparable loss will be ever most deeply telt - by her afflicted surviving family. Could professional skill have saved her to her very numerous and anxious family, there was a reasonable hope that such might have been the result ; and inspired by . this In common with her friends, she he roically submitted to a painful and most distressing opera tion, which she sustained with a degr ee of patience and for titude almost unexampled. 13ut, alas ! the inveteracy of her complaint was so great, and 'the possession it hart obtained of her whole frame was such as must have baffled all human shill. In her last moments - she evinced that calmness of soul and pious resignation to the will of Providence, that might have been expected from one who bad fulfilled all the relatve duties of life in so exemplary a manner.—(Canadiax "Ppo.) Weather.—The heat of the.weather has greatly abated, the mornings and evenings being com fortably cool, though the afternoons are still very warm. Last Sunday night we had some rain, which, with the preceding, has giiien to the crops a jolly corpulency. Commerce.—The decline of commerce is be come lately more perceptible ; no less than six persons having failed, and one absconded within the last ten days ; all of them, however, in the retail trade. The mercantile body, bloated dur ing the war, must, without some unforeseen event, undergo a still further diminution. MONTREAL, JULY 22.—New Steam Ferry boat.—There now lies, opposite Mr. Molson's brewery, receiving her engine, that small steam ferry-boat which we some months ago mentioned to have been built at Boucherville by Mr. De celles. It is of a construction similar to that of the team-boat, is 68, feet long by 40 broad, is intended to ply between Longueil and the Never Market, and will probably commence her trips in. about three weeks or a month. Her engine, cast at the St. Mary Poundery, possesses a 30 horse power, and has been constructed by Mr. Hall. The New Swiftsure, in which some very ele gant and commodious alterations have been made, will be ready. for navigation next week.

TonAcco.—Petersburgh, June 14.—1 t is as certained that upwards of 18,000 hhds. of To bacco have been received already this season at the different warehouses in this place. Before the Ist October, at which time the shipping year will expire, we doubt not the number will ex ceed 20,000. In this computation the tobacco brought down the Appomattox Canal is not in cluded ; which being inspected above; is merely brought here for sale ; and we have known in the course of the season, one house to receive through this channel in a single day the consign ment of 500 hhds. We have no data by which to ascertain the whole extent of the Canal Com merce ; but it is already considerable, and is daily becoming more so. The whole of this vast amount of produce is brought to the Petersburg market, and either sold for cash or bartered for necessary goods. And what is doubtless the most pleasing circumstance to the planter, is the promptitude with which the business of buying and selling is conducted. The moment the to bacco is inspected, the purchasers am upon the spot, and the seller realises its value immediate ly. Many ships have been dispatched from our ports in the, course of this month and last, freight ed with tobacco, cotton and flour ; there are now betweet,t fifteen and - twenty loading for foreign ports. / NEW YORK, JULY 1.-An Interesting Ma chine.—The subscriber, after much labour and expense, has at length succeeded in bringing his newly invented Hydraulic Boat Propelling Ma chine to such a degree of perfection, as he thinks amply sufficient to demonstrate its util.ity ; and. he now respectfully informs the public, that it will be put into, full and complete operation ou Tuesday, the 18th. This Machine, (which is only the Model of one that is shortly to be put in operation upon an extensive scale) is so constructed as to keep two Boats in continual motion, passing and re passing each other, and gliding in rapid silence over the waves, exhibiting at once a scene both novel and delightful.—lt may be necessary just to observe, that as the Boats are fastened to a chain that moves with them on two sets of sup. 1 porting wheels, they are thus effectually secured from danger or accidents. The exports of cotton and rice from Charles. ton, during the month of June last, are .estimat ed at 549,917 dollars. f'ICPU,ILLING-OFFICE, Sept. le, ism , COMMISSIONEAS for VICTUAL -741,vG .41AJESTY'S NAVY do hereby pre No -641.2,-71121 on Friday, the 22d ins'. they will be ready to re 9,,,,enders in w ri ti ng (sealed up), and treat for liundred Thousand Gallon: of WEST INDIA RUM, the strength of five per cent. under proof of Sikes's 11 .4 d ro77leter. 4 ,..:thousa n d S ac k s o f BISKET MEAL. ft v 2' " l oges of OATNIEAL. p c.
