But if the approaching ; civic .festival is not to their taste, the CAMBAIDGE, meeting seems to have been peculiarly so,.for. there something, not short of treason, was talked by, a Mr., ~Voinebody. In J..;_ts'Aitic, too, they have,had- a majority of four, which, by the new,..Whig arithmetic, is more than fifty to one, when the oddslie on the other side. In short, the Whig cause is now something like the old conundrum' of_ the cow's tail—" the more you take from it,• the higher it grow"—or - the old hole in the wall, the more. you take from it, the larger it grows. Thiis.do they, turning their glasses from home to abroad, find out that the revolution in Por tugal„has paid off all the arrears of the soldiery, and that there is now, at Lisbon, a surplus hi the treasury—all too, t hoitt any new taxes ! not'even a tax upon iron, nor upon home-brewed ale, nor even an addition of three and.three guar-. ters income tax upon the rich, .and of NINE PER cENr. upon the poor ! Strange, indeed, that Continental Whigs can do all these things, as if in contempt of their English brethren, when they came into power . ; and, yet that English Whigs were forced to•have recourse to them, even whilst their Exchequer Chancellor was cautioning the House not to be alarmed by any idea of his paying off the national debt, as it was not his intention to do any such .thing:,---he then considering a national debt as peculiarly advantageous to the country ! We, suspect, indeed, that. neither the soldiery nor the people of Britain will be tempted, by this Whiggish Expose, to get up any. little revolution of their own. Luckily for us, and for our well disposed Constitutional defenders, we have no army arrears to pay up ; and if we have no sur plus in..the Treasury, we still have a credit that is something better : besides we cannot shut our eyes to the fact, that even in the UNITED STATES —that Heaven of the Whips—there are deficien cies in treasury receipts, and loans. to be made to cover them, just as in this poor Country, which, for the last hundred years, has been " on the brink of ruin"—nay ruined, and ." crouching at the feet of France," as the " -Man of the People" had once the audacity to tell the House of Commons ! , . COLONIAL TIMBER TRADE. (From 'be Quaec• Gazette.) RENIARKS nrid‘GENERAL OBSERVATIONS on the Evi dence given before. the COMMITTEE, of the HOUSE of Leftas on this Suhjrct, during the last Session of' Yarlia nwnt. There are Six Ziffereniliods of Fir Timber shipped at Quebec. Three of Red Vine. Ist. The Norway Pine. 2d. The fled Pine, properly so - called. 9d. Another kind with only about three or four inches of . heart ; this lastlis produced partly in Lower Canada, towards the line 45 deg. and is floated down the RiverSt.FratreUis; it is also sent down the Ottawa River. Three of White Pine. lit. The White Spruce Pine. _ _ 2d. The White Pine, properly so vane& The Yellow• Pine ; Ibis last is of slower gtn*lii than the other two kinds, and is technically called close in the grain, and is particularly e?teeined in England for Cabinet work and Joiners! purposes. The qualitrof all sorts of Timber is partly formed front the nature of the.soil producing it, and certain soils naturally produce partiCular hinds of Timber. It. is distinctly obserrtd in the. State of New York, that wherr:a gime of trees is entirely burnt down, After a few years, trees of entirely a different species grow up. Expoeintents weie many.years ago made in England of English, Baltic,.and Canada Oak Plank of exact dimensions, placing them in similar - situations. additi7 to eacle . additional and equal. pt essurr,- until the planltS•hroke, (by weights) and next to the English Oak the Canadian Oak was found to be the strongest. . Evidence was -given before a Committee of the House of Commons on Ships Built for the East India Trade, when the most decided approbation was given to Canada Timber. Mr. Sally's replies to the manly questions put to him, are as pointed as if he had previonsly'got them to study, and pre- pared answers. (He seems a willing witness) ; his knowledge of the'llaltic trade, .froin his very extensive dealings, and large Gurernment contracts fur naval stores, is certainty very general and correct; but when Canada comes in; com petition there is an evident leaning, which appears rather over-stretched, particularly regarding wheat. It is well known in Canada that we du nut receive wheat from the United States as an article of commerce.—Flour comes in from the State of New York, where the manufacturer, this year, has been bartering 'it . for -British and Colonial produce at the low rate-of tlivxe. dollars. ptr .barrel—the expense of trans porting a barrel from the Genessee to Quebec is about a dol lar and a half, and that expenditure cheulates among us; it is mostly exported tti the West Indies, but all in British Ships ; the Yreight, Commissions, and all profits arising front it Ultitimitlyfind their way to England. Mr. Sully, without ever having been in the United States or Canada, seems to have got a Carte du Pays—respecting grain, lie answers as to a question 'cloult:ful, yet very im portant ;. his answer, it ix ininerstood, produced a representa tion fri4n certain' Landed- Proprietors, and growers of Corn, to the Secretary of State fur the. Colonial Department. The sable Gentleman gives in evidence, that .our Ditty, (Duty on Baltic Timber into England, of 31. ss. per load) is so far a bounty upon the importation of United States Timber in preference to that of the Baltic States—this insinuation is easily illustrated. Nearly all the United States Timber that comes into the River St. Lawrence is from Lake Cliamplain;aucl.the expense there is known to average as follows : The Lumber-man pays to the prOprietot of the soil, in- tree, one cent per foot - D.O I Yxvence hewing d• dressing - Hauling down to the Lake - ,Making the Crib, and loading it • I Running the Cribs down the Richelieu, and re- f=- ratting in Clianibll Bastin - 1)o.0 1 For risk, and conducting the Raft-to Quebec 2- -3 Do 8 'Atrionnting to eight cents, or near five pence' Halifax cur rency, per cubic fuot--eeen these fire cents are not all ex , pended in the United States, part of it is generally given for necessaries at'Quebec—out of the proceeds, the American has to pay here half-eullingi ground rent, &c. , • To the ahovu add shipping charges, risk of debts on_ the other sole, end the Pine will cost on board the ship about six pence per foot. Instead of a bounty of 31. ss. per load, the American Lint.- berer actually receives no. more than about two dollars and a half per load,lot first cost of the tree, and all other labour, risk 'isnd eirienees in the United States, the residue goes - to pay British freight, insurance and expellees in England. Mr. Sully also gives in evnience that timber of the same size can be iMported front the Baltic as from America ; here again he is ponltedly. opposed by Mt. Norman, Mr. Cowie, and Sir Robert SePPit!P.—Wc have much timber at this port upwards of 24 inches square, and frequently so thick that. the raft ports of the Ships are not sottigieutly large to re ceive it. • It .has been, given in evidence that U. S..red pine is better than that of Canada ; the filet is not so, the hest red pine is from Lake Ontario, but ffot,generally so well dressed as, that from the U. S. Timber, from Lake Champlain is, for, the most part, well hewed and dressed to a line, (equal to the Memel) this makes' a great difference in the stowage of the ship, as well as to the buyer and consumer in England— perhaps from a penny to two.perrec , per cubic foot.— Very little - RedPine of merell'antable dimensions, is in future to be expected from Lake Champlain; what that country has produced the last two or three ; ears, was buled ten or twelve miles. In Upper Canada, In the Bay of Quinty, and round Rice Lake, the groves of large sized Red Pine are very extensive, also along Dundas-street, and frOm York, to the head of Lake Ontario, :it is growing in some places near .to the very banks of that Lake—and along that continuation of Lakes, from Rice 'Lake to their junction with Laku Simcue, there are, many extensive groves of Red Pine in ,about 79' of long, and 44 5 N. tat. . On the Saguenay, bclow ,Qnebee, it reported that the largest Pine Timber iu America is growing, down to the very edge of that great River, and up to Lake St. John, about 200 miles, and on the Rivers einatying into that Lake, on a sweep of 200 Miles inore,Timbei of the must uicfid , denotWna . - tions is said to abound.'llli4country . ii hut imperfectly.knowi. . . The Interior of Lower Canada, particularly on the North Shore of the River'St. Lawrelice, is now less known than it was in the time of the French.. Shortly aftet the first settle ment of the Country, and up to the beginning of.the last century, the whole Country was explored by the Jesuit Mis sionaries,- who fesided•among the Indians and frequently hit , lowed theirs in their "sliming excursions and. war parties. The fur traders• and Courears des bets also over-run the whole country. .1 he observations of the foregoing deseriptions of h persons ave' been lust. Indeed they• wet.; not probably directed to the soil or the natureof .its productions. Thera remain only some very taint traditionary accounts of the whole interior of Lower Canada between the'Saguetray and the Ottawa. The country alon. , the lowertiart of Saguenay is mountainous. All the rivers rroin Cape Torment to there Rivers take their rise in the morantai o ons 'track on the south west bank of the - Saguenay.- 'Tlie direct distance to the Sa guenay north of Quebec, .is not so great: as from .Quebec to its embouchure. Strips of the line may sail SO miles op thy Saguenay, and'small • eessels 120 mites up. Aimee the first falls, and to the westw'ar'd of three Rivers, t here is a lake re presented by some persons to be nearly as • large as Lake On, tario, with many large rivers entering it • from the eastotorth, and west, flowing through a level and Well worded 'Country; and a climate differing rely little from that of Quebec, from which. it is situated little more than one degreenort h.. From the Saguenay there was formerly a good Indian path to Quebec. Traders 'frequently went up the St. Maurice, and cause down the Saguenay, or vice verso, and the Indians of the North West, in tithe 6r vi'ar, have been known to come from the Great Lakes down the Saguenay with their Peltries. There are also highlands north cast of the Ottawa, from which numbers of large rivers descend into that river.. The most distant waters of the St. Maurice come from the highlands of the Ottawa on the West, and the highlands of tliti Saguenay on the East. The Indians in time of war, used to communicate with Three Rivers and Quebec from the Ottawa, by the Masquinonge and St. Maurice. Between the two ridges of highlanus above mentioned, there is a east tract of level and well timbered Country. In truth Lower Canada both on the north and south shores of the river Saint Lawrence is still one immense forest, offering to an eye which could embrace the whole, an almost imperceptible edging of settlements along the St. Lawrence, and stretching up the banks of some of its tributary , streams; th e Island of Montreal arid the sus rounding settlements ex cepted, which form a compact body of cleared country. The capabilities of this v;rst forest for supplying Lumber for ex portation, has only begun to be ascertained ; for at the com mencement of the trade,ouly about 15 years ago, the Americans on Lake Champlain and the settlers in Upper Canada, origi nally from the United States, being in possesaion 'of supply ing the Quebec market, and having the facility of rafting along the Saint Lawrence to the places of shipment, they con tinued for several years to furnish nearly all the supplies. Within the last four or See years, the Lumber of Lower Ca nada has been looked after, and found to be abundant, and , brought to market with equal facility; being of a more nor therly and consequently slower growth, it may probably be found to be of better quality. If the Saguenay and the lower parts of the St—Lawrence were to furnish Lumber, no tem porary occupation of parts of the St. Lawrence above Quebec, iii the event of war with the United *tato, could interrupt the supply—for that fortress commabas tlre land below it, and the British Navy the River, to the Richelieu Rapids. Two Gentlemen connected With.thls city, have been propos ing for two years past to explore . .this raluable tract, the one conversant with Oa 'various qualities of soil, and to what agricultural produitions - it seems beat adapted ; the other, fro►u long experience, a perfect judge of all kinds of timber, but it -has not yet 'suited their mutual convenience to un dertake this important voyage. 'nit country may be stat ed as lying between longitude 70. to 75 4 and latitude 435 to 5010.* Sir Robert Seppings is•a_Gentleman of great practical knowledge and sound judgment bet from his communica tions and long intercourse with Baltic timber contractors, it is possible that he may have insensibly imbibed some of their prejudices—and he may never tare had en opportu nity of observing the maturity oreonditiou of timber be fore it was delivered into the King's Yards in England. The Dry Rut; and the prevention of it, is, however, a subject that ought to demand the consideration of all- interested its the Lumber Trade of Canada. The climate of Canada is not diss'milar to that of the North of-Europe, from which the wood es exported to Englanel—the soil that produces the trees, however, is generally different from that of Canada. In the countries no the Baltic labour is cheap, and to any extent is easily procured—the timber there, is cut and put into the waters while the frost is its it. Canada trees, felled during the winter, and before the moi=ture of vegetation gets life in tie spring of the year, will not be subject to the Dry Rot—at least, such is the opinion of the people in this country ;—if cat down. after the,tree be gins to vegetate in the spring season, the durability of the wood may be affected thereby: Trees are sometimes cut to wards the spring, that cannot be got- hauled to the rivers : they lie in the summer in a temperature of 50 to 00 de grees of heat, completely covered by the luxuriant yegetatiou of weeds and bushes, and are thus excluded frot the air ; this has an immediate tendeacy to generate Fungi, and must be injurious to the wood. There is now a Red Pine Spar lying within three hundred yards of Pointe a Pizeau, that was dressed for shipping in the month of June last; to give t a .straighter appearance it was dressed in so much on the one side that part of the spine was taken off, and to keep the. other side full part of the sap-wood was left on : Wits:tie-wood was soon sun-shaken, and last - month a Fungi was observed re°Towing out of one of these rents, about eight inches long, four inches high, and one inch thick ; whicitcould not readily be broken by a kick with the hoot, nor could it without muck difficulty be cut with a knife. Much loss and trouble have been occasioned in England by shipping red pine utssts and spars with too much sap. in them, which in the ship gets black, and gives the stick a decayed appearance. When- this happens, the best remedy is to redress the stick immediately to . the core, taking off all the sae.-wood to prevent corruption. Tice present state of, Culling and Inspeetion is a serious evil, so many having lately got Cullers' Licences who are in competent judges of wood, and the various purposes for which it is calculated. If an alteration'Of the Mies on Timber is effected unfa vourable to that which is the growth of these Provinces, by the influence of the Agents of foreign Merchants, and narrow views of, some Landed Propiietors, the Exports of Canada in .the article - of Wood will be reduced from its pre sent amount of 500,0001. annually, (taking as a data ' one third of the average lumber exports only of years past) and the Imports of British Supplies will necessarily fall o ff as moch. England will then possess said govern great Colonies, but without ships and commerce, reversing the policy of our best Statesmen, such as the late Lord Liverpool, and his retrian Coadjutor, the late Ilonourabli• George Rose. • . . Every thing of a local or a personal interest must give Way to the general prosperity of the Colonies the just claims of Canada will be hearkened to; let - her suns pull sti on' and altogether. - This imperfect review of the Wood Trade maysnggest some thing more important to Gentlemen acquainted with the sub ject, who, it is hoped, will communicate - with their friends in England without delay. Quebec, 23d November, 1820. • .THE CANNDAS The following Extract from the Quebec Ga zette, of the c 2 Ist of September last, exhibits the opinions, and at the same time the feelings, of our fellow-subjects in the Colonies : " The French War of 1792, gave us an ex port of Grain to Great Britain ; the shutting of the Baltic gave us the Lumber Trade ; the Ame rican Embargo, the American War, and the im mense demand- which it occasioned for Colonial labour and produce, enabled us to extend our consumption of British Merchandize beyond any former, precedent. if - irett . " - F6rnings - were c.na depable, very little remained with us. They, for the most part, went to . Great Britain. If we built ourselves. fine houses, we took special care to cover their .roofs with British tin ; to provide ourselves with an abundance of windows, which were supplied with the most costly British glass ; outside and inside there was.a profusion of Bri tish paint ; all our furniture, all our ornaments, must be British. Our meat was roasted on Bri tish spits, turned by British jacks, perhaps before a British coal fire, served on British tables, dishes, British linen, and ate with British knives and forks ; our very bremi and pastries were made in British moulds. Our wine came to us only through British channels, was Poured out of British double-flint cut decanters, into glasses.of the same description ; and we toasted the British King, the -British Army and Navy, and went to rest on British bedsteads, in British sheets and British blankets, and rose up to be covered- entirely with British clothing.. Even our furs and peltries must be sent home to England to become British. Our books and our paper, and the — quills with whieli we wrote, were 13ri tish. " From the splendid dwelling in our cities, to the log habitation of twelve feet square, where the first settler shews the labour, the privations, and the suffering - which must have been endured, to give this goodly country its present cheerful aspect, and moderate degree of comfort, all is British; save our meat and our bread, our fruit and our roots, our stone and our wood, a few articles of coarse clothing made in our families, and some stoves and pots manufactured at the King's Iron -works at St. Maurice. If all that is Brit* celld be taken away from us at once, we should behouseles,s, naked, and _hungry ; our condition would be worse than that of the savage, for he- can endure the intemperance of the wea ther, or build him a but ; he can snare the beasts of the forest, clothe himself with their skins, and feed himself with their flesh ; he can make him self bows and arrows for his defence, and beat out the brains of his enemies with a war-club. We should, indeed, be in a worse condition than the savage, if it were possible, allat once, to take away from us all that is British, and leave us no substi tute. This, however, is not possible. But we shall retrograde to a state worse than that of the savage, in proportion as the supplies we want from Britain and British possessions are taken away ; and they will, in great Fart, be taken away, or what is the same thing, our stock will wear out, be consumed, and disappear, and not be replaced, if we have not the means of procur ing a fresh Supply. We all know that we have hitherto been supplied, in exchange, fin- our la bour, or the produce of our labour. The advo cates of the new regulations, which are to destroy our lumber trade, are about to say to us : You must come to our shop, you must travel in our carriages, and pay us for conveyance ; you must buy our goods, or want : We have now no longer occasion_ for any thing that you can supply us A French Mail arrived at a late hour last night, bringing Paris Papers to the 19th inst. It is stat ed that the object of the Allied Sovereigns in re questing all the Italian Courts to send Ministers to the Congress at Laybach, is to deliberate on the, best means to secure the whole •of Italy from any ulterior shock. In the mean time, with the permission of his HOLINESS, a division of the Austrian Army in Italy, 30,000 strong, has receiv ed orders to take an advanced position in 'the Papal States, in order to give more weight to the negotiations of the Congress. It would seem by the accounts from Naples and Vienna, as if both the Neapolitans and Austrians were of opinion, that the conferences at Laybach would not have a pacific termination, forthe most active measures are taken by each party in anticipation of a war. The Emperor of Austria had arrived at Laybach, and the King of Naples was expected there on the 7th or Bth of this month. The h►ng of Prus sia was still at Berlin on the 6th, and it was not known at that date when he would proceed to the Congress. Count Stackelberg, the Russian Minister at the Court of Naples, has been re called. The French Chamber of Deputies was occupied on the 17th in ball - offing for Commatees, to whom were referred the examination of several private Bills, orProjets A Loa. Among the - Petitions which will be reported to the Chamber on the 18th, is one from General S.tnaitzis, 'who complains of 1..,1ng boon illogaily tried (LW- 1 c0r , " 3 " 41 ) 6.”, a peals against the sentence passed on him. The Budget for the present year, brought forAard by the French Minister of Finance on the 16th, states, that the total of 'the public income, after a proposed abatexnent in the land-tax and other contributions, to the amount of 17,431,570 f., is estimated at 885,021,745 1., and the expenditure at 882,237,374 f. ; leaving a surplus in the re ceipts of 5,694,371 f. This surplus comprises a sum of • 4,458,724 f., remaining disposable from the service of 1819 ; to which was to be added a further saving upon the estimates of last year. TRENCH FUNDS.

The Commercial Advertiser of the last date contains the following articles : CC LATE FROM AFRICA.-The United States' ship Cyane, Captain TRENCHARD, from Sierra Leone, arrived below yesterday morning. The Cyane left the Coast on the 97th of OctOber.— To the politeness of an Officer, who came up . this morning, we are indebted for the following intelligence :—The per Sons who went out in the ship Elizabeth - , as settlers, were in a state of great confusion, owing, it is said, to several of them having refused to work, and their provisions be ing nearly all gone. Mr: D.l: , gEr. COKER, the acting Agent, had been compelled to leave his charge, and was on board a schooner, where he intended to remain until he received advices from the United States. No land had yet been granted to the emigrants, and it was uncertain whether they would obtain any. Mr. CoKER bad been informed that a Palaver would be held to dispose of lauds to his people. Previously to the time appointed by the Agent and the Chiefs, a feW intriguing mon got into their possession the goods intended for the purchase of land, and by this measure defeated the object-of Mr. COKER, these men refusing to deliver up the property. The British Government had offered them to settle at Cape Shilling, and it was supposed they • would accept the offer. • " The British gun brig Snapper, Capt.
