Th a is nd has to b immense undertaking efinished, possible is now f a i r l y i n pro gressspace of four, years. Its length from the Falls in the ls of Chan ere, on the Ottawa River, to Kingston on the Lake Ontario, 133 miles. , There will be 50 Locks on the Line, as there are 280 feet to lift to the Grand Summit Level of the Rideau Lake,and many heavy Dams and Guard Gates will be required on the River Rideau to surmount the wild rapids therein —hug e gullies and ravines have to be passed over requiring extensive Aqueducts.—The work taken altogether is certainly the most stupendous and ex tensive at present going on in the world, and when completed will form a piece of ingenious art almost with Out a parallel. More than one thousand ma sons and four thousand labourers will find employ ment on it during the present summer, and as there will always be much quarrying required, the work, in consequence, will not be suspended, even through the inclemency of winter,but continue in operation the whole year round. Wh,,, grateful news are these to Canada—to Great Briton n—and to the world at large. Never could British eaPital be expended in a 'more noble and useful undertaking. By so doing she opens up a glorious highway through the bosom of one of her most interesting colonies —on either side of which are lands, not only able to support thou sands of human beings, and thereby relieve distress to any extent that a surplus population or other causes may create, .but planted .by nature with forests, of beautiful oak which could supply (never be missed) formidable armadas. This canal falls into the Ot tawa or Grand River, 120 miles from Montreal. Masons and labourers may be transported thereto from Quebec for about three dollars by the steam boats' and Americans from the United States may reach the works at a less expense, where houses' will be open to receive them, and all the comforts of humble life to 'the industrious. By this Canal the treasures of Canada will be Opened and herself protected from the invasion of enemies, npt only this, but it will be the means of making the wilderness smile with improvement. When it and other Canals will be finished, which are now in progress in Canada and the States of America, a steam - uoat navigation will be opened from Quebec on the St. Lawrence, or from Halifax on the Atlantic. Ocean to New Orleans in the Gulf of Mexico, an inland route of many thousand miles, and certainly the longest that will or can be on the face of the earth. We have been favoured with this information from the Royal Engineers now returned tOlon treal after exploring the country, running the level s and making the necessary survey s.--Herald.. J.

GEORGE HARRISON. This was an information, by the Master of the Crown Office, in the nature of a quo warranto, relating to the city of Chester, and was directed, by the Court of King's Bench, to be tried in the county of Salop, as the county next adjoining to Cheshire. The whole day was occupied in hearing the defendant's case, which in proceedings by quo warranto is first gor.c into. Mr. Baron GAS.Row, having tried all the prisoners, set out, in the middle of the day, for London. WESTERN CIRCUIT-EXETER, IllAitui 27. ‘, 311J111)Elt. Thomas Friend was indicted, first, for the murder of Elizabeth Glass, on the 19th inst., at Ashbury ; secondly, for the murder of Edward Glass, at the same time and place. He was charged also with both murders on the Coroner's Inquisition. On the first indictment only he was tried. Mr. SmiteNs stated the case for the prosecution. Abraham Pincombe knew Friend ; had told Miss Glass that he observed something particul.ar in the prisoner. The Junar. asked if the prisoner heard it ? Witness said no. I saw Friend on the 19th of March ; when he came in from work he washed his hands ; it was between five and six o'clock ; I did not see him that night again ; I saw Mrs. Glass on her return about ten o'clock ; I knew where she had been, and that the daughter and Edward had gone to meet her ; Miss Glass took a lantern and cloak with her; I took a lantern after Mrs. Glass came home, and went towards the Down to meet them ; I called three times very loud, and finding no answer made, I con cluded they were gone to the brother's, and returned ; it was about a mile from where the bodies lay. Friend used to kill the sheep and pigs for the house ; he used a butcher's knife; (looking at it), I believe that is the knife which he used. I.was en the Down next morning; I never saw Friend afte►wards until Friday morning, when he was found; I was at the cow;.house two minutes after •he was found ; William Weeks called me ; prisoner was in a very dogged state, and could not look tip ; I said, " Tom, what have you done?" He said he kiaowed his doom, but said nothing more, and went away.—(At this moment the pri soner sank down and fahatOd; a chair was brought for him, and salts applied to his nostrils.) Edward - Glass examined—l am brother to Sarah Glass the deceased; I remember Edward Weeks coming to me; I was in bed ; I went to the linhay ; I saw Friend there ; Abraham Pincombe, his wife, and W. Weeks were there ; I was in a great fright ; as soon as I could speak, I said he had ruined my family and his own faMily, and particu larly my aged mother ; Its said nothing ; first I inquired where he had been since he left the house; he told he had been in it furze-brake about twenty yards ,'r ern the house, for two days and two nights ; after that, he came into the hay-loft, where he concealed himself for a night and day. In the evening of that day he went into &wheat field on the farm, where he lay down for some time; after that he came to the hnhay, where he was found. I was very anxious to know the sufferings of my sister and nephew; I asked him which he killed first; he said the female; I asked, " how did he get hold of her ?" he said, " I was standing behind some faggots, which were a fence for wheat; then I leant out and seized her by the clothes ; I had seen her coming with a lantern ; I had a Mind to resist-the temptation once or twice; hilt on her approach I jumped out and caught hold of her by her clothes ; then rthrew her on the ground, and cut Ler throat with the knife. He did not say why he did it ; I asked him if he had any envy against any of the family ; he said " No." I asked him what she said, and he said she cried " Don't kill me." I asked if she stithred much ; he said " No', the time. 'Was very Short." He said, that afterwards he Iveneback to the gate, and took nP a cloak, cap, and bon net, whieh he placed near the body of my sister; in doing so he lost his knife. I had been living with my mother, excepting six months, all the time prisoner did. I went to my mother's house as soon as I could, and I never saw him from the time I heard of the murder, until he was ap prehended.—(Knife shown him.)—l have had it in my hand many times ; I believe it is the same he used to kill the pigs with ; I saw it by my sister's side on the down. Sarah Brock was servant to Mrs. Glass till about a year ago; the prisoner had " a kind of kindness" for Miss Glass, but I never saw him touch her nor speak to her. I know the handkerchief, it is Tom Friend's ; Dame hemmed it with her left hand. That knife I believe to be the same he used to kill pigs with. John Gardiner, turnkey of the gaol, produced a jacket taken from the prisoner's back on the 2.3 d of March ; there was blood on it ; some other marks appeared as if blood had been washed out. Thomas Wood produced the clothes which as constable he took off prisoner's back when he was first apprehended, in there is a little blood urybrewhous on the e, at Mr. small-clothes.

That is Mr. Wooleombe's writing. The prisoner's con fession, on his examination, was as follows : " That on Monday night last, the 19th inst.

I drew the body of Miss Glass some way further down f rom t the hay lu - i t d r the place where she fell. I then took up the bonnet and cloak, and carried it a little further down by the hedg e , I ,then came homewards. I went a little above side the hoose into a furze-brake.

This was the case for the prosecution. The JUDGZ then asked the prisoner if he bad any wit nesses to call, or defence to make ? He said, in a low tone, N o. . The h i= re capitulated the evidence to the Jury. In about a m i nute t h e y returned a verdict of Guilty. Mr. Justice Buitaotion pronounced sentence on the pri, goner. Tiesecond been as mach as possible kept out ofview murder ; but what had teould have led the prisoner to commit these horrid murders, he could not conceive. It was som e satisfaction, however, to find that he had con ducted himself with great propriety in prison, and that his hours had been employed in reflection and prayer. The murder itself appeared to be one of the most malicious, prouidated, and voluntary acts of atrocity, e ver h ear d' o f. There could be no hope of mercy, and the only course for the prisoner now to take, was to apply himself to a prepa ration by repentance and prayer for another world. It had been intended to postpone the trial to Saturday, and to or der the execution for Monday, and the prisoner having expected that, he (the Judge) would exercise the discretion given him by the statute, and respite him until Monday.— The Learned Judge then passed sentence in the usual form. The prisoner seemed almost motionless as he was removed from the dock. NORTHERN CIRCUIT.—YORK, 111Aacn 29. CIVIL SIDE. THOMPSON AND ANOTHER V. HUNTER ♦ND OTHERS. Mr. PARKE opened the pleadings. The action was brought npon 'a policy of insurance. Mr. BROUGHAM stated the case. The plaintiffs were merchants at Hull, and the defendant was the secretary of the St. Patrick Assurance Company. The action was founded on a policy of assurance effected on a ship called the Jfary, the property of the plaintiffs, then on a voyage from Petersburgh to Hull. The ship had got aground at the mouth of the Humber, and sustained considerable damage, and the question now was, to what amount the liability of the defendants extended. There was no ques tion on the policy—none as to the liability of the defend ants to par sores damages, but he understonit th a t the de fence set up would be, that a rule existed, that when damage to a ship was repaired by the underwriter, a de duction of one-third of the amount should be made as an allowance for the difference between old and new materials. He (Mr. Brougham) did not deny that in some cases it WAS proper to make some deduction in favour of the un derwriter,—the contract of the underwriter was to put the assured in as good a situation as he had been before the damage was done, and if he placed him in a better situa tion, he certainly onght to receive some allowance. He believed that they would be told by the Counsel for the de fendants, that the rule that prevailed in the river Thames was to allow a deduction of one-third hi all cases except when vessels were on their first voyage. The rule was, as it appeared to him, most irrational. The policy of insurance was proved by the agent at Hell for the St. Patrick Assurance Company. The policy date of the acceptance of the policy was Dec. 17, 1826. As the evidence, in this case went merely to establish the 'facts and the custom at Hull, it may be omitted. Mr. SCARLETT, for the defendants, contended that the policy in question, though made by the agent of the St. Patrick Society at Hull had been accepted in Dublin, and was therefore, to all intents and purposes, a Dublin policy. During the whole of his experience, he had never heard of such a rule as that attempted to be established on the other side, though he had known the contrary rule a thousand times established in Courts of Justice. The evidence for the defence established, with the ut most clearness, the rule at Lloyd's, as stated by Mr. Scar lett, viz. that one-third was deducted from the amount of all repairs, on the ground of new for old, except on the first voyage. The rule of one year was not known. The .citnesses were average staters. ho had been employed in that duty many years at Lloyd's, and had stated averages on policies made at Dublin, Liverpool, and many other places, but had never heard of any other role than that al ready specified. Mr. BROUGHAM insisted, in reply, that this was a Hull policy, not a Dublin policy, and therefore to be affected by the Hull rule, the reasonableness of which he vindicated strongly. Mr. Justice BAYLEY said, the rule at Hull was quite clear, and indeed admitted by the counsel for the defendant, ! and it seemed more reasonable than the rule at Lloyd's ; ' but the question was, what was the existing rule at the place where the policy was made ? That place, in his opinion, was Dublin ; he thought this was a Dublin policy, and ' that Mr. Garbutt, the agent for th, , , St. Patrick's Assur ance Company in Mull, should be considered rather as the agent of the plaintiff, to convey his proposition to the Dub lin'Company. The policy was signed and dated in Dublin. The 'amount of damages was not a question here : it would be submitted to reference, and the only question was, was this a Dublin or a Hull policy. The Jury retired, and shortly returned with a verdict, that the Hull usage ought to regulate the question. The Judge told them they ought to consider what the Dublin usage was, and he wished they would retire again, and let him know their decision on that point. It was for the defendant to . make out what the Dublin usage was, if he did not make it out to be different from the Hull usage, the whole amount of the insurance ought to be paid. The Jury returned again in ten minutes, when their foreman said, " The Jury are of opinion that the rale on a Dublin policy is the same as on a London one." DERBY, 111.utcm 29. Simeon Bennett, aged 24, was placed at the bar, charged with maliciously, and by fraud, carrying away from Ash bourn, Wrn. Bratby, a child under seven years of age. Martha Bratby keeps a lodging-house at Ashbourn, and the boy in question was an illegitimate son of her sister, new Sarah 'Nelson, who had placed the child with her to nurse. Witness knew the prisoner at the bar. He came to lodge with her on the 17th of January. He had lodged with her before, for a short time, in the summer of 1826, and then carried on the trade of a scissars-grinder. On the following day he asked witness to let the child take a walk with him, saying he would be back in about, two hosting. She at first objected, but finally allowed him to take tke child, on the repeated assurance of returning in about two hours. Three weeks after, it was discovered himt a p t rw t i lL i e tnh ho era y .p 7 irsod as nn a o t tz T mn a g m edi w nA o d r re t fe , ,n w ace h c;h er ie e nn, ndheyiszmveole,typheetrrh. the Jury immediately pronounced Guilty.

The prisoners were, for the gr ea t er part, a b le- b o di e d good-looking young men ; the oldest of them was thirty four years of age, and the youngest but seventeen. They pleaded " Not Guilty." The Hon. GeoYge ' Warren Edwardes—ls the third son of Lord Kensington. Heard the report of gins in Newell wood on th e 1 1th of December ast. Proceeded, with other persons,' towards the wood. He did not go out from the house with those persons, but met them on the way. There was Spray, the head keeper, Carman, Ensor, Bolter, and some others. Two of the party only were armed, namely—Spray and Carman. Witness had no fire-arms. Some of the men had sticks. Witness had gone out from the house with the groom-boy only, and iu the way de spatched him back to the house to summon the other ser vants. H e met Spray and Carman, and their party, with in two fields of Newell-wood. Heard voice, in the wood. People were moving ab ou t, an d pheasants i n dis turbance, and breaking through the covers. A pheasant lit on a tree under which he was standing. Remained under the fence of the cover some minnter, and observed the poachers coming out of the wood at the end. Was then about 100, perhaps 200 yards from the spot where the poachers came out. Witness was then in the field. On the poachers coming out they stood for about a minute or two i n a pparent consultation, and then took a direction across the meadow. Followed them slowly in the direction in which they went, waiting for the arrival of another party, which he expected to come. When the poachers had gone some distance across the meadows, the party which witness expected came up. Then he and his party foll‘tved the poacher' at a quicker pace. When they arrived at the corner of the meadow they Were gaining upon the poachers. They then stopped and formed themselves into a solid body near the corner of the field. They then made a rush to wards the corner, and got over the bank into the adjoining field. Witness immediately ran on and stood upon the bank. Some of his party were close to him, the remainder of the party stopped at the place frOm whence he ran on in the last instance. Some might have been about twenty yards off. Two of his party were on the bank. Caravan - made, did not dis tinguish the word s . - A ke after heard one of them say shoot, and then spoke to them. He said, you had bet ter not fire, or some words to that purpose, Im me di a tely almost as the words fell from his mouth he received a blow on his face from a stone. It stunned him consider ably for the moment, and blood flowed freely from his mouth and nose. He turned aside, and dropped down on one knee and on his hand. As he was rising from the ground he beard a gun fired, and received a wo und i n ki, side, and some shot struck him on the shoulder. - He then rose up from the ground and hastened away from the fence. When about four or five yards from the• fence he received another shot, which struck him on the back between the shoulders. Ensor, his servant, then came ep and led him away. - The first shot penetrated very deep, and he bled a good deal. The other shot did not penetrate so deep. William Spray—ls one of Lord Kensington's keepers. Was with Carman on the 10th of December, at Black bridge Wood ; saw him shot, and the blood,ranning down his face ; none of witness's party had fired before he was shot ; witness was carrying his gun ; he took the gun out of the hand of witness, and said be would shoot because they had shot him ; went after that to Seamen's, and hid in the garden; the poachers came up and searched; were there about ten minutes ; witness then went away to make his way up to the hall; he afterwards met Mr. Edwardes ; he was going towards Newell Wood, in which the poachers were; heard the poachers move about in Newell Wood, and heard a shot now and then ; heard about four shots ; it might have been three quarters of an hour, or hardly en much, from the time that the poachers left Seaman's until they came out of the wood ; Newell Wood is about half a mile fromtSearean's ; there is a wood between Newell Wood and Seaman's ; beard two shots in that wood after he left Seaman's, and before he saw them come out of Newell Wood ; went with Mr. Edwaedalt . aeroliiihe meadoW; - fol lowing the poachers after they bad conic out of Newell .Wood ; saw them rush over the bank near the corner of the meadoW, and saw thein run a little way in the adjoining field, and then drawvup in a circle, or something like that ; saw Mr. Edwardes at the moment he ran up on the bank ; Mr. Edwardes asked them what business they had there?

Mary Howard—Her father keeps the Red Lion public house at Drayton ; recollects' the 11th of December ; knows a man of the name of Howlett ; he came to her hone. on the night in question ; it was between seven and eight o'clock be went into the public kitchen ; three or four persons came in afterwards.—(Here the witness was desired to look round the Court and see if any of chose persons were present. She pointed out all the men at the bar as being of the party, except Catchpole and 011ey.)— They all left her house that night by about half-past nine o'clock. While they remained they were smoking and drinking. Witness was in and out of the room. Heard a man named Perry say to one of them, he would bet him five shillings he would not miss a shot that night. Heard sonic of them say they were going to Tabram Guys, and some to the Bird-in-Hand at Saysborough. Does not know Heydon Hall; duce not know how far off Lord Ken sington lives.

Has been a gentleman's servant ; has been out of place for about a tvieleemonth ; has lived with Lord Petre, Lord Stafford, and Mr. Gunn; knowsall the prisoners at the bar. The prisoners, wken called upon for their defence, said nothing. Mr. Justice GAIIILEa. explained the law to the Jury, as it bore open the facts detailed in .evidence, and minutely recapitulated all the particulars of the ease. The Jury consulted for about a quarter of an hour, when The Foreman said—" We find all the prisoners Guilty, but recommend them to mercy." The Junoz—You will observe, Gentlemen, that neither Catshpols nor 011ey have been identified by the witness (Mary Howard), so. that, in respect of them, the testi mony of the accomplice, Turner, has received no sonfir tion.

AP the Learned JUDGE wu putting on the black cap to pass the sentence of death on these twelve unfortunate men, the Hon. Mr. Edwards*, the prosecutor, stood for. ward and said, " My Lord, I earnestly entreat mercy for the prisoners, and hope their lives will be spared." The Junox—Your recommendation, Sir, shall be repro seated in the proper quarter. What effect it may have, I cannot presume to anticipate.

He exhorted the prisoners, in the mean time, to prepare themselves, as men who might soon stand before a greater than an earthly Judge, and concluded by passing, in the usual form, the awful sentence of the law.
