They had no definite law upon the subject ; and instead of this council visiting Mr. Sand's conduct with reprobation, thie council ought to thank him for affording them the opportunity to determine what was the law. The council cannot be afraid of submitting these claims to the decision of the authorities of the land. It is discreditable for them to attempt to settle any such question amongst themselves.

Mr. HODGSON here (AMU vcd that he vviahcci tv make an explanation with which the Town-clerk was acquainted. The MAYOR—What is it ? The TOWN-CLERK said that Mr. Hodgson wished him to explain respecting the alleged meeting at the Town hall on the sth of November. He (the Town-clerk) on that morning was going from one room to the other, when he met Mr. Corrie, who told him he had ssme matter of importance to communicate. He told Mr. Corrie that he would see him after he had come out of church. They met after church time, and the subject was about the charge against Mr. Sands. He the Town-clerk then fixed that Mr. Corrie should meet the Mayor a quarter ;before ten o'clock on the following morning. That was the only interview upon the subject on the Sun day, but the communication, when the subject was made to the Mayor on the following morning a 3 a quarter be fore ten o'clock. Mr. AIKIN then rose and spoke at considerable length. After replying to some of the statements of M r . H o d son , he contended that it would be highly improper for Mr. Sands to be appointed Mayor, whilst the present charge against him was not disposed of, supposing Mr. Sands were elected, the first thing he would have to do, would be to appoint a committee which was to investigate the charge against him. 'Mr. Aikin concluded by stating that he conceived the council would be pre-judging the case if they elected Mr. Sands, and under all the circumstances of the case, he thought Mr. Sands would act the wiser part by retiring at once. He should vote against him. Mr. LACE rose to say that as his name had been fre quently referred to in this debate, he felt bound to say that he still firmly adhered to the propriety of the advice which at first he had felt it his duty to offer to Mr. Sands. He thought that his election at this moment, with an enquiry on the subject of a charge brought against his conduct impending against him, that the Council would be placing ,theinselves in a position of some difficulty. He had been materially influenced in the vote which he should give this day from some remarks which he had heard had been made out of doors. It was said that he was privately of opinion that Mr. Sands was morally guilty of the offence charged against him. He distinctly denied that he was of such an opinion. He believed that Mr. Sands was individually, actuated by no unworthy motives in the cours e w hi c h he had pur sued, and that be had done only what he conceived he was justified in doing. He (Mr. Lace) should therefore, not withstanding any opinions which he might hold upon the subject, give his vote for Mr. Sands. Mr. PARKER said it was his intention to vota for Mr. Sands and no other. It was quite wrong that they had not fixed upon the mayor at their former meeting. They had, however, two candidates—(no ! no ! ! from Mr. G. 11. Lawrence)—for the office of mayor. He had a great respect for both, and thought both eligible for the office ; but he would give his vote for that man who had always supported sound Protestant principles. There was no man who would support support those principles better than Mr. Sands. There was no man who had shown bet ter Protestant principles on the School question than that gentleman had, although he was not a member of the Es tab:ished Church of Eegland. He should therefore with much pleasure support him. Mr. BRAMLEY-MOORE said he would support Mr. Sands. I t was an old English maxim to consider a man innocent till he was proved guilty. (Hear, hear.) He thought, however, it was for Mr. Sands to say whether he would accept of the office or not, and if he did, he must take it with all its responsibilities. Mr. Moore then went on to state that other houses had charges pre ferred against them as well as those of Mr. Sands, when he was interrupted by Mr. HENRY LAWRENCE who considered him out of order, or alluding to any other party. The MAYOR said it would remain for Mr, Moore to explain. Mr. MOORE said he had heard of a similar charge against Sir Thomas Brancker, and it would be for Sir Thomas to say whether the charge was right or not. The MAYOR thought Mr. Moore had better retract, or go further and explain. Mr. MooRE said he would not proceed further; but such a rumour was afloat in the town. It was not for him to say whether it was true or not, but as Sir Thomas was in the room, he could say whether true or false.

The MAYOR said he had received a communication from Mr. Wm. Brown (cries of read, read). Mr. SHUTTLEWORTH then read a letter, signed " Wm. Brown," chairman of the committee who had investigated the charge, and informing his worship that he had much pleasure in forwarding to him a copy of the resolutions which the committee had adopted. The resolution was to the effect that the committee, after investigating the matter, were of opinion that th ere was no t th e s li g ht es t ground for imputation upon the character of the firm of Sands, Turner arid Co. for the manner in which they had been in the habit of passing their goods ; and there was nothing in the act of parliament which defined what was a bale and what was a truss, neither did it decide the dif ference between a chest and a box. Mr. H. HORIVISY said, that before be proceeded to address the Council, he wished to learn from the Town clerk, whether, if no other candidate were nominated, and they proceeded to the vote, how they would act if the noes were in a majority. from the Arabiax The TOWN CL IRK said that the matter rested with the Council themselves, but the question must be brought to the vote, and if the nays had it, some one else must be nominated. lactation. 1 tales a Mr. H. HORNBY said he felt it to be his duty, though a painful one, to oppose the election of Mr. Sands; and though he entertained nothing but a friendly feeling to wards that gentleman, that could not induce him to swerve from what he conceived to be right. He himself had come into the council without any object of self-inte rest, and was sufficiently rewarded if his conduct met with their approbation ; and be must therefore express his sen timents freely. The council were called upon to elect as Mayor a gentleman against whom a grave charge had been preferred, at certainly a most unfortunate and a most extraordinary time. But the character of Mr. Corrie, who brought it forward, was altogether unim pugned, and, be had no doubt, been guided by a desire for the public good. The first communication of that gentle man to the Mayor was received on the 6th November. three days before the day appointed for the election. A consultation was consequently held, and Mr. Sands was advised to consult his friends; and he was advised to withdraw as a candidate, and ask for a full and fair inves tigation. Such a course would have put him (Mr. Sands) in a more favourable position ; but it was or dered otherwise. An investigation out of doors had taken place, and a report was made and published. He (Mr. Hornby) considered the result of that investigation as highly discreditable to the judgment of the parties who had conducted it. They had given a verdict of acquittal, but on what grounds? On, in fact, an open and bold de nial of the injustice of the practice charged. The case ought to be fully investigated by the council itself, injus tice not only to Mr. Sands, but to Mr. Corrie, and to the constituency of the town ; and if they acted upon the investigation that had taken place, they would necessarily leave an imputation on the character of Mr. Corrie. Amongst the majority of the council there would be no difficulty in finding a fit and proper person for the office, and he hoped they would not act hastily and under ex cited feelings. Mr. EVANS could not help concurring in Mr. Hornby's observations. What must be the position of Mr. Sands if elected, and an inquiry was to take place ? He should think that by such an election they were rendering them selves highly amenable to blame. They were placing, as the head trustee of a property, a gentleman accused of injury. He did not think, however, that they should vote upon the simple question as to whether Mr. Sands should be Mayor; for if that question was negatived, they would be in effect saying that there should be no Mayor. He hoped, therefore, that some other gentleman—and he was sure a fit one could be found—in whose behalf the mino rity of the council who were conscientiously opposed to the election of Mr. Sands might have an opportunity of recording their votes, would be proposed. Mr. BusHELL commented at considerable length on the letter of Mr. Corrie, the spirit in which it was writ ten, and the peculiar time at which it was sent. Why were Sands and Co. alone alluded to, when the writer has admitted that others pursued the same practice. It could not be that they were the largest shippers, for they were not. Then it appeared that a clerk had ver bally remonstrated with Mr. Sands so far back as nine years ago. Mr. Sands returned a proper answer, which was " I can manage my own business, and if I am wrong you can set me ri g ht by c h arg i ng t h e hi g h er d u t y . ' This was not, however, done. Mr. Corrie had seen Mr. Sands rising to honour and distinction. He saw him elected Chairman of the Dock Committee, and just when he saw his foot upon the very threshhold of the Mayor alty ---just when he saw him about to be still more ho noured than before, he came up with this charge. With respect to the gentlemen who had conducted the investi gation he entertained for them the highest respect, and he could not admit that they had acted discreditably to their Who that The Porter storm that per land.

The operations at the Board of Brokers, in New York, were to a fair extent at a slight improvement i❑ rates. There were more enquiries for foreign exchanges at 108 to 108+ on England. The cotton market was firm at a slight advance. The Cotton market at New Orleans was rather de pressed in consequence of the accounts received by the Acadia and Great Western steamers. Exchange there had a tendency to decline, and there was but little doing. A horrible murder was committed in New York on the 29th ult. by a man of the name of Seitzer, who after suf focating his wife set fire to the house in which they resi ded. The husband had been apprehended, and a verdict of wilful murder was returned against him. Meetings were in course of being held in every part of Upper Canada, demanding the removal of the seat of go vernment out of that province. The newspapers are ra pidly taking it up as a question, not between Montreal and Kingston, but between the French Canadian and the Anglo-Saxon race.

In this first address Louis Phi- lippe clearly indicated the policy he was resolved to pursue. " Every right should be substantially guaranteed, all the institutions necessary to their full and free exercise should receive the developments of which they had need." Again : " Attached with his whole heart, and from con ♦iction, to the principles of a free government, he ac cepted all its consequences beforehand." That Europe might at once understand that his was an orderly and pa cific mind, and that his government would partake of the same characteristics, he declared,—" Yes, gentlemen, this land of France, so dear to me, will be happy and free ; it will prove to Europe that, solely engaged in promoting its internal prosperity, it cherished peace as much as liberty, and only wishes for the happiness and repose of its neighbours. This was the programme of the lieute nant-general ; and, after thirteen years of a most labo rious and agitated reign, he is as faithful to that programme as he has ever been, amidst all the fury of factions he desperate violence of anarchists.—Fraser. Cook be cabin bo Humphri a stocking r Hunter was AMERICA AND ITS CREDITORS. — Among the discus sions to which the moral lubricities of this insolvent peo ple have given birth, they have arrogated to themselves the right of sating in judgment upon the property of their creditors—of deciding who among them is rich, and who poor, and who are proper objects of compassionate pay ment ; but in the name of Mercury, the great god of thieves, did any man ever hear of debtors alleging the wealth of the lender as a reaaon for eluding the payment of the loan ? Is the Stock Exchange a place for the tables of the money-lenders ; or is it a school of moralists, who may amerce the rich, exalt the poor, and correct the ini quities of fortune ? is Biddle an instrument in the hands of Providence to exalt the humble and send the rich empty away ? Does American Providence work with such in struments as Biddle? But the only good part of this bad morality is not acted upon. The rich are robbed, but the poor are not paid; they growl against the dividend of Dives. and don't like the sores of Lazarus. They seize with loud acclamations on the money-bags of Jones Lloyd, Rothschild, and Baring, but they do not give back the pittance of the widow, and the bread of the child. son of Those knaves of the setting sun may call me rich, for I have a twentieth part of the income of the Archbishop of Canterbury ; but the curate of the next parish is a wretched soul, bruised by adversity ; and the three hundred pounds for his children, which it has taken his life to save, is eat and drunken by the mean men of Pennsylvania—by men who are always talking of the virtue and honour of the United States—by men who soar above others in what they say, and sink below all nations in what they do—who, after floating on the heaven of declamation, fall down to feed on the offal and garbage of the earth.—Sydney Smith's Letter. AN ORIENTAL'S OPINION OF ENGLISH DANCING. — His first impressions on English dancing are perfectly unique in their way, and we can only do justice to them by quoting them at length. "Itis so entirely unlike any thing we ever heard of in Hindustan,that I cannot refrain from giving a slight sketch of what I saw. In the first place, the company could not have been fewer than 1,500 or 2,000, of the highest classes of society, the. ministers, the nobles, and the wealthy, with their wives and daugh ters. Several hundreds stood up, every gentleman with a lady; and they advanced and retired several times, hold- ing each other by the hand, to the sound of the music : at last the circle they had formed broke up, some running off to the right, and some to the left—then a gentleman, leaving his lady, would strike out obliquely across the room. sometimes makine direct for another lady at a dis. tance, and sometimes stooping and flourishing with his legs as he went along : when he approached her, he made a sort of salaam, and then retreated.
