" Now, good master Doctor ," As the days this burning and shining light of whiggery can remain a " political character" are numbered and few in number, it may he well, ere he for ever leaves the stormy arena of political conflict, to show our readers what sort of a man he is. Poor fellow ! we cottlole most sincerely with has been a long one, he has been a firm and consistent and unswerving adherent of whiggery. Through good report and through evil report he has• clung to the creed of liberal ism. When it was a by-word and a reproach to he a whig, he was a whig; when the whigs were banished to the cheer less benches of opposition, and left there to pine in mortifi cation and agony of spirit, he was a whig, and a whig he remained ; when the whigs thought place and pay a paradise which they were never more to enjoy, and hardly dared to hope for, he was a whig; when they succeeded to power (alas ! that was a woful day for England) then, it is almost unnecessary to say, he was a whig. Expecting the reward of his long devotion to the unrighteous cau remained a whig until he obtained that reward in the shape he of cours, geship of th admiralty court, with a thumpiitg s per annum. Gratitude to those EMIGRATION TO BRITISH GUIANA. AND TRINIDAD REPORT OF MESSRS.

We will pursue a description of our travels a little further, in as short a space as possible, and then give the substance of our researches in as concise a manner as possible. of the ju( salary of sot by whom his place was given increased his love of whiggisru; and accordingly, when he became a respectable character, one who occupied no mean place on the judgment seat, and was clothed in the most sacred vestments of a distributor of justice, he did not forsake whiggery, but clung to it with as much tenacity as before. Nay, it is a question whether the taste which he had enjoyed of the loaves and fishes did not whet his appetite, and make him anxious for more, or in case more could not be procured for himself, induced him to make the most strenuous exertions to obtain a share of the good things for those hungry vagabonds who held the same opinion as his patrons and himself. Be this however as it may, it is certain that Dr. Lushington became one of the most zealous, most active, most uncompromising sup porters of whiggism, foul and abominable as it was, is, and will be. To that detestable political creed be devoted his time, his talent, his eloquence. He was constant in his at tendance in the house, and his name was to be found in the list of every division of the slightest importance. He spoke well and ably, and learnedly, and as he possessed considerable , as his influence, _dinion carried with it great weight, he was enabled to render great and important assistance to the whigs. And this the whigs do no hesitate to acknowledge, and as a proof of the gratitude they felt to the " good master doctor" they brought in a bill giving him a larger increase of salary. The tories, however, succeeded in tacking a clause to the bill by which it was enacted that after the present session of par liament the judge of the Amiralty Court should be ineligible to sit in the house of commons. Thus, as we said at the outset, the days that the learned doctor can remain a politi cal character are very kw in number. Soon will he have to abandon his proud position as representative of the " intel ligence " of the greasy electors of the Tower Hamlets ; soon fhe have to give less attention to West to Doctors' Poor man What a melanchOly change awaits him I To give up the stirring activity, the exciting bustle of political life, for the dull, common-place monotony of a court of law is indeed a matter much to be lamented. We feel for him, we condole with him. The tories, stupid blockheads, thought forsooth that the duties of ajudge were incompatible with the occupations of a politician —that the spotless purity of the ermine was in danger of being tarnished in the bustling excitement of an•election contest — that the scales of justice might be held unevenly when'he in whose hands they were placed ran hither and thither to soli cit and beseech,, and pray for, the suffrages of those whose causes be had to decide. These notions were worthy of the tories. In days gone by they might have been considered of some weight, but in these glorious times of a k'ggery and humbug and " march of intellect," and all the rest of it, they were not deserving of a moment's attention from the pro fessors of " Oh ! dear no ! These immaculate friends of purity could see nothing but propriety in having the occupant of the judgment seat spouting in the House of Commons, storming and bawling in the hustings, and seeking " In a bondman's key, With bated breath, and whispering humbleness," the most sweet voices of the unwashed and filthy and ragged " free and independent electors " of Wapping and such like localities ; but the whigs were obliged to give in,—they were obliged to swallow the amendment of the tories in the Admi ralty Courts bill. The amendment was a bitter bolus for the poor doctor, and he pulled many wry faces before he could contrive to gulp it. The tories, however, were determined,' and down his throat it went. One word about this said amendment. The whigs had always been opposed to it, and it was expected that they would try hard to defeat it, especially as, if it should be carried, it would deprive them of the able services of Dr. Lushington. It so happened, bowever,that Dr. L. had been guilty of the high crime and misdemeanour of thinking for himself, and had actually the temerity to propose a series of amendments in one of Lord John Russell's best measures ; and to the great mortification of the little lord these amend ments were adopted by a great majority of the house. For this act of daring insubordination Lord John, in a moment of vexation, declined to oppose the amendment proposed by the conservatives in the admiralty courts' bill, and the con sequence is, that Dr. Lushington cannot, after the end of the present parliament, retain his seat in the House of Commons. Now, we think that the conduct of Lord John Russell and the whigs in this matter was most disgraceful. Approving most highly, as we do, - of the amendment to which we refer, and we approve of it because we think that a judge ought to know nothing of politics, least of all ought he to be a political partisan, we still think that Dr. Lushington has great cause of complaint. From the conservatives of course he had no right to expect any consideration. Inde pendently of the desire which they must feel to see the bench of justice above all reproach, they would naturally be glad and anxious to exclude one of the most powerful of their opponents from parliament; but the whigs were bound by personal and party considerations of the strongest kind to take a different view of the matter. Dr. Lushington has long been one of their most distinguished men : his great learning, his high talent, his powerful eloquence, added to his unshrinking consistency, must have made him an acquisition to the whigs ; but all this was forgotten, because he (Dr. L.) dared, on one solitary occasion, to act independently. Oh ! these worthless scamps ! Not only are they treacherous to the country, but they are treacherous to their own personal friends. Surely, surely, such conduct as they have shewn to Dr. Lushington must disgust the few really respectable men who are to be found in their ranks. The Doctor was an honest man—that is, as honest as a Whig can be—and an able man, ay more honest and more able than any other to be found enrolled under the filthy ler of Whig but nevertheli he has beeii v inciit foully treated by his political allies; and if he does not immediately separate himself from.them, we shall think much more meanly of him than we are anxious to do. Take warning by him, oh ! ye one or two WhigS, who have more pretensions to ability and character, and leave, we pray you, the vile ministerial gang, or you will assuredly be held ccountable for their monstrous iniquities Dr. ...ushington's manner of speaking is very peculiar He is very energetic, and throws his arms about lustily. Whatever be the subject, he always speaks at the very top of his voice—in fact he shouts. Any one hearing him for the first time, would think he was in a most violent passion, ,but it is nothing more than a habit. He lisps, and always uses the letter w instead of r; for instance ; he would say, " gwacious heavens! and have those awant wascals the Whigs, kicked me out of Pawliament !" He is a good and even eloquent speaker, and it is impossible not to see that in what he says he is always in earnest. As an authority in the laws of nations he is unequalled, and is, " take him for all in all," as we have already said, a most able man. He is about the middle height, perhaps a little above it. His face is rather small. He dresses with much plainness. SEIZURE OF RIBBONMEN WITH THEIR DOCUMENTS.— On Thursday night last, between the hours of 11 and 12 o'clock, when Serjeant Hayes and his party of constabulary, stationed at Belturbet, went round to inspect the public houses, they discovered two men in the house of Mr. Patrick Prunty, one of whom had papers in his hand, which, upon seeing the police, he attempted to destroy by eating them. lam happy to say he was prevented from doing so, and that both were conducted to the police barrack. On Saturday an investigation took place before the magistrates at petty sessions ; but as it was with closed doors, I cannot send you the particulars. However, the documents, which are connected with the ribbon conspiracy, fully warranted the bench to commit the prisoner to Cavan gaol forthwith, to be tried at the next sessions. The other man had been held to bail. The fellow who was committed is of the name of John Clarke, residing at Derrilin. about ten miles from this town, where he had been master of a school. With this, and the many proofs daily coming to light of a widely extended conspiracy, who will not urge the necessity of Protestants being upon the qui vire ? Great credit is due to constable Hayes and his men for their ever prompt •and efficient discharge of their duty.—Fermanagh Reporter. COMMUNICATION BETWEEN LONDON AND DUBLIN.—It is the intention of the London and Birmingham Railway Company, in conjunction with the Grand Junction, the Crewe and Chester, and Chester and Birkenhead Companies, as soon as the two latter lines are opened (which will take place either next month or in September), to accelerate the mail trains, so that they will reach Birkenhead in six hours and a halt after their departure from London. This can be easily effected, as, in addition to shortening the distance from Bir mingham to Liverpool about 13 miles, by means of the line from Crewe to Birkenhead, the gradients are greatly supe rior to those on the Liverpool half of the Grand Junction Railway. It is in contemplation to fix the departure of the mail packets from the Birkenhead side of the Mersey, which will cause another saving of 20 minutes, as the railway runs close to the pier. The mail communication between the two capitals will, by this arrangement, in ordinary weather, be effected, within 19 hours, which is, in fact, only one hour and a quarter more than what was expected to be accomplished by the Chester and Holyhead line of railway, and steamers from the latter port to.Kingstown.—Dublin Monitor. THE LONDON AND BRIGHTON RAILWAY.—The greatest activity prevails on the whole extent of this line, and the final completion of the work is now looked forward to ; 800 men are alone employed between Brighton and Clayton, and no exertion is spared by the contractors and those engaged in this important undertaking — The sleep.eurting to the south of Major Paine's, at Patcham, is nearly finished, and great progress is also made with the tunnel which is to pass under that gentleman's estate. Further up, that portion of the work in the contract of Mr. Flavel, is in a state of great forwardness, and the formidable cutting in this part will be completed in a short time. In fact, between this point and the Clayton tunnel, a few months will suffice to complete the whole works, and there is no apparent reason why within one year from this time the public should not be travelling by steam to London. Higher up the line some striking ob jects present themselves. Of these are the Pool Valley viaduct, of eight arches ot39 a(nrcohwesrinrlay sctoamtepolefterodr)waanradnetshse Ouse Vale . The works vailasothilicitihe neighbourhood of these structures are being carried on with energy, and in a great many parts the permanent rails are already laid, EXTENSIVE FORGERY ON THE BANK OF ENGLAND.— About two o'clock , on Sunday afternoon , Mr. Superintendent Stephens, accompanied by Inspector Hall and Sergeant Hid sea, proceeded to a house in Henry-street, Birmingham, re cently taken by an elderl widow, named Mary Pritchard. Havin g procured a ladder,. Inspector Hall ascended to the top story, where he observed a man and woman working a small iron press. Superintendent Stephens and Sergeant Hidson broke in at the lower Window, and discovered the man and woman employed in turning the rollers. Underneath was the plate of a forged Bank of England note for £5 ; in other parts of the room were found notes iu all stages of prepara tion for issuing, but only a few completed. George Brad flock, the man apprehended, is an engraver, but for years was employed as an exciseman, at Wellington, in Shropshire , and has long been suspect e d o f b e i ng extensively engaged in Bank of England forgeries. The female prisoner, there is little doubt, has also been for a long period connected with the t ra d e . She has a family of eleven children, and is closely related to some of the must respectable families in the town. It is understood that the prisoners were engaged, when dis turbed, in getting up an order of 250 £5 notes, and 250 £lO notes, for certain parties from Manchester, who were waiting in Birmingham for its completion. At the time the police were in the house, these gentry were seen in the neighbour hood, but catching a sight of the officers, they suddenly and expeditiously escaped. In the course of a few hours the order would have been finished, and Manchester and its neighbour_ hood, in the course of a week, inundated with forged paper. The notes completed were for £5, dated Nov. 14, 1838, and signed "J. Booth." The press and implements employed are in every respect private , and the notes well executed. So complete a case of detected forgeryb o a f s not ß od _ io n k ccu a rr o e d d i onthßir mingham since the celebrated case e;ecuted at Warwick about twenty years ago. Agreeably to a public notice given out in the several churches specified in the following resolution, passed on the 23d day of November, 1839 : Resolved,—That it be respectfully recommended to the several congregations of the colored population, of the city of Baltimore and state of Maryland, to announce, from their several and respective pulpits, that a public meeting would be held at the Bethel school room, in the said city, on'Monday evening the 25th day of November, 1839, for the purpose of selecting two persons, as delegates, to visit the province of British Guiana and the island of Trinidad, to ascertain the character of the climate, soil, natural production. and the political and social condition of the colored inhabitants of the province and island aforesaid, and hereafter to report to a public meeting, to be called for that purpose, all the infor mation acquired by them, and especially whether it possesses such advantages as can justify the free coloured population of this city and state to migrate thither. In pursuance thereof, a large anll respectable number of the free coloured population of the city of Baltimore aforesaid, met at the Bethel school-room, in the city of Baltimore afore said, on Monday evening the 25th November, 1839. The meeting was organized by the appointment of Thomas Green, as chairman, and Harrison H. Webb, as secretary ; the object of the meeting being fully explained, the following resolution was offered : Resolved,—That this meeting now proceed to elect two persons as delegates, with instructions to proceed first to the province of British Guiana, on the continent of South Ame rica, and thence to the island of Trinida . d, and at each of said places to ascertain the character of the climate, soil, natural productions, and the political and social condition of the colored inhabitants of the island and province aforesaid. Said resolution being adopted, the meeting proceeded to elect two persons in conformity thereto, and after counting all the bal lots, the chairman announced to the meeting, that Nathaniel Peck and Thomas S. Price had received the largest number of votes, and were duly elected delegates for the purposes set forth in the foregoing resolution. " Now this is to certify to all to whom it may come, that in pursuance of the proceedings had in the premises, that the above named Nathaniel Peck and Thomas S. Price, are duly authorized, empowered, and commissioned to proceed to the province of British Guiana, and the island of Trinidad, for the purpose contemplated and especially set forth by the written and aforegoing resolution. THOMAS GREEN, Chairman. Test, H. H. WEBB, Secretary. •" We the undersigned, cheerfully bear testimony to the uniform correct deportment of Thomas Green, chairman of the meeting referred to in the above proceedings. The per-. sons named as delegates, Nathaniel Peck and Thomas S.

In pursuance of the foregoing resolutions, we, your dele gates, proceeded to Boston, and ou the 21st of December, 1830, sailed for Georgetown, Demerara, in the province of British Guiana, where we arrived on the 21st January, 1840. We proceeded to deliver the letters which we were the bear ers of, to those gentlemen whom Mr. Carbery had written to, and were received with all due respect. It was then arranged that we should pay a visit to his Excellency, Governor Light, next day at twelve o'clock. At the time appointed, we were accompanied there by Mr. Bagot, and introduced to his Ex cellency, who received us in a manner highly flattering, and gave us a great deal of important information, and assured us if we or any of our brethren should feel disposed to emigrate to Guiana, we might rely upon his protection and assistance ; as much so as if we were British-born subjects. By appoint ment, the same afternoon, we met the board of directors of the Emigration Society, convened expressly to have an inter view with us. The following is from the Royal Gazette, of the 23rd January. EMIGRATION SOCIETY Extracts from the minutes of the proceedings of the Board of Directors. The secretary laid over letters from Edward Carberry, Esquire, one of the 18th December last was read, and ordered to be published for general information, being as follows : " Boston, 18th December, 1839. "DEAR HOLIAES,—This letter will be handed to you by Messrs. Nathaniel Peck and Thomas S. Price, who have been appointed agents by the free coloured people of the State of Maryland, to visit British Guiana, and to report to their brethren the advantages they are likely to derive from emigrating to that colony. " I have agreed with the Baltimore Committee of Immi gration, that the passage, of their agents to Demerara, and their expenses while there, shall be paid, and that sixty dollars shall be allowed them on account of their return passage to this country. I consider myself responsible for the fulfilment of this agreement, and request you will furnish the necessary funds on my account, should there be no public resources avairable.. " The visit of Messrs. Peck and Price being connected with a subject of great importance to the agricultural interests of British Guiana, I have no doubt every facility will be afforded them in the accomplishment of their object. "They have consented to quit their families, and to under take a long voyage, chiefly on the faith of my representations ; they have therefore, peculiar claims upon me, and I cannot too strongly recommend them to your kind protection. Ever yours, "E. CARBERY. "J. A. Holmes, Esq." . _ The secretary informed the board of the arrival in the colony of Messrs. Nathaniel Peck and Thomas S. Price, delegates chosen and appointed by a general meeting of the free coloured population of the city of Baltimore and State of Maryland, held on the 25th November, 1839, to proceed to the province of British Guiana, for the purpose of ascertaining the character of the climate, soil, its natural productions, and the political and social condition of the coloured inha bitants of the province, and of reporting thereon ; and especially whether it possesses such advantages as can justify the free coloured population of the aforesaid city and State, migrating hither. Messrs. Nathaniel Peck and Thomas S. Price were then introduced at the board, and laid over their credentials, and the unanimous expression of the desire of the hon. chairman and directors to render them every assistance in their power to further the important object they have. in view, was con veyed to these gentlemen. And further, It was Resolved—That a public advertisement be issued, soliciting the inhabitants generally to afford them, during their intended progress throughout the province, every assistance and kind attention in their power. The board then adjourned. (True Extract.) THOS. C. BAGOT, Secretary. The attention of the inhabitants of the Province of British Guiana, is respectfully directed to the above resolution of the Board of Directors of the Voluntary Subscription Immigra tion Society; and any expenses which may be incurred in forwarding the aforenamed delegates from place to place, or otherwise, will be defrayed on application to the board. By command, THOS. C. BAGOT, Secretary. We soon found we were amongst friends who tendered us the hospitalities of the colony, and made ample arrangements to facilitate our travels throughout the colony. We remained in town for several days, sufficiently long to have possessed all the information relative to town affairs, manners, cus toms, &c. We now undertake to give a faint description of George town: the capital of the colony. The streets are all Mac- Adamized , and • crossing each other at right angles:— Water-street, being the principal business street, is thronged with people throughout the day; it is next to the river, and runs parallel with it. The stores are very large, and well fitted with every article that fancy may dictate. The dwelling-houses, which are frame, are built at least twenty feet apart, in order to have a free circulation of air; and, indeed, comfort being always consulted in the erection of their dwellings, all of them have large galleries or balconies in front, and many all around them, with abundant fruit and other ornamental trees, shrubbery and flowers, constantly dressed in their never dying foilage. The water used here is rain -water, falling upon slate roofs, and is conducted by spouts into cisterns, the must of which are composed of iron plates or wood—the water is very pure, clear and pleasant tasted. In Georgetown, there are two Protestant churches; on,e Presbyterian;. three Wesleyan Methodist, and one Catholic ; all of which we visited, and were highly gratified to find them well attended, and that they had entirely banished prejudice from the House of God, as well as every where else—persons of colour occupying pews throughout the church, according to their standing and ability to pur chase, with an ample number of free pews and seats for strangers and others. On the first of February, at ten o'clock, a.m., started on board the American-built steamer Victoria, in company with a Mr. William Jones, a highly accomplished gentleman, (the son of an opulent proprietor residing in England,) who, on the previous evening, had offered to accompany us to the islands of Legaun and Wakanaarn. He proved of signal service in pointing out to us every thing of note, and in an swering the many questions which we put to him ; all of which we felt very grateful for, and on parting, we were provided with letters of introduction to every section of the country. We arrived at Legaun about half-past 12,. m., where we were kindly received. We must now give a short description of the country. The land is flat, with canals running throughout the cultivated portion of the colony; but these canals answer three import ant purposes : Ist, to drain the land for the cultivation of sugar, &c. ; 2dly, answer as fences or boundaries between plantations ; 3dly, as means of transportation for the canes from the fields to the works, and from the works to the ship ping ; hence, there is an immense saving in animal labour in bringing the produce to market. The country really has quite an animating appearance ; every thing like vegetation - growing with the greatest luxuriance ; indeed such is the fer tility of the soil (which wants no manuring) that everything belonging to a tropical climate grows as if it were by magic. Oranges, limes, and cocoanuts are in the greatest abundance. Pine-apples, bananas, plantains, mangroves, sappadilloes, guavas, and many other fruits too tedious to mention. Sweet potatoes, yams, casava, &c., whilst we also saw Indian corn growing, of which, there can be three crops raised in the year. Cabbage, beets, lettuce, cucumbers and tomatoes, with a great variety of peas-and beans, we saw growing, and partook of the most.of these things whilst there. The sight of all these things, as well as the sugar and coffee being in full bearing and maturity at that season of the year, can be better imagined than described. After being on this island three days, and visiting nearly the whole of it, and being highly gratified; we accepted the very kind offer of Captain William son, proprietor, who sent over one of his schooners to convey us to Wakanaam, where we spent two days, and had ample opportunity to test their hospitality. (which abounds every where,) and also to gather a great deal of useful information touching our mission. After spending an agreeable time on this beautiful island, Captain W. sent another of his schoOners s a c "Springfromht lion. htiepar: s t a p l e e dunoG o edso t hui ad h nior e agdwi r i side ne naentishowed on, i,gu, t wsh, of the island, which landed us at plants. , owned he ' wvao le o ni rrewdeyden morning,pepeboi a d vys rest received yul possessing isAnhwgwi American Captainteeihn rviaeibeautifulc sivaii every visited rWydag advantages h vneaa e tsrlu F tko n at r t n e ato o x egfa m t ,enfsrw, estate, i h ea e i r d e lhs a. • is a charming situation, situation in the country, being on the noble river Essequibo, and the.steatner from Georgetown stops here on her up and down passage, four times each week ' • besides a fou n t a i n o f never failing water, obtained from a bore a great depth in the earth. After spending two days here, being furnished with horses by Mr. Benjamin, who accompanied us some distance on the road, we started down what is termed the Arabian Coast, for at least thirty miles, stopping at several estates on our route, as we were provided with letters of introduction. This is a most splendid part of the colony, being in a high state of cultivation, with the exception of many fields which have been recently thrown out for the want of labourers, a s we found that to be the only complaint which was prevalent all over the colony ; indeed it was quite apparent to our view, o fo r r th th r e o r w e n A o •e u re t t m h a e n la y s a t c y r e e a s of beautiful land r,andtheoonesa on dw l e y abandoned" eds growing up together ; and in many fields, particularly at " Spring to oanrdnet and bring them Garden," there wereern to canes the k de w c o a r yin s. g for the want of persons upon T o ourgive a journals,minute ul d description sw ol o l t f h o n u f n r r travels h a i s s w pa ri m tt p e h n d let o b w e n . yond any reasonable size.

After being absent from town ten days, we returned in the steam-boat to Georgetown'; on the wharf we met a Mr. Moses Benjamin, the American consul, who gave us a pressing invitation to stop at his dwelling, which was near by and make it our home, at that or any other time while we remained in the colony : for this. as well as many other acts of kindness, he has our gratitude and best wishes. On the next morning, at half-past 9 o'clock, we again started on board the same steamer for New Amsterdam, in Berbice. On board, we found several gentlemen to whom we had been introduced before ; also, our friend, Mr. M. Benjamin, who was going on business. He paid us every attention, and in troduced us to Mr. D. C. Cameron, a merchant of Berbice, who proffered his house as a home as long as we might choose to remain in the colony. On the next morning (our arrival being noticed in the papers) we were waited upon by many proprietors, as well as others, all soliciting and seeming anxi ous for us to pay a visit to their district first, and furnishing conveyances in abundance. February 12.—1 t being a rainy morning, we could not fulfil our engagement to breakfast. After 12 o'clock it cleared, and we walked out to " Rve-head " coffee estate; proprietor, Mr. Welshman—returned by the way of the garrison, and arrived in time for dinner. 13th.—After a rainy morning, and through the politeness of Mr. Cameron, we visited several plantations and returned to town the same day. 14th.—By arrangiinent, we started at an early hour in the morning up the east side of the Berbice river, in company with Mr. Laing and Mr. Newlands ; after a ride of about ten miles, we stopped at plantation " Buse's Lust," where we breakfasted with the gentlemanly manager, Mr. Hicks. From here we went further up the river to " Highbury," in a boat belonging to the sheriff, by invitation from him, to see the Hill-Coolies, natives of the East Indies, who are a hardy race, but yet in a state of ignorance, as they cannot be prevailed upon to quit their idols. At 4 o'clock, we embarked to return to " Buse's Lust ; " in a short time we started for town, and arrived in time for dinner. We stopped with Mr. New lands, dined, and spent an agreeable evening with him and his interesting family ; at I 1 o clock returned to Mr. Cameron's, which was close at band. _ 15th.—Rained as usual in the morning. At 12 o'clock we again started in a barge, in company with three gentlemen, to visit an estate, " Standvastigied," which is about six miles up the river, on the west side, and spent an agreeable afternoon and night. Returned next morning in time for church—went to the Rev. Mr. Redwar's church, which was well attended. At three o'clock, paid a visit to his Sunday school, which is composed of 250 or 300 scholars, of all ages ; some learning to read the Bible with spectacles', and repeating their cate chism ; it was a gratifying sight to behold these people seek ing knowledge, it being only about 18 months since the most of them were emancipated. We left here, to fulfil an engage ment out to dinner. Returned at ten o'clock. Monday morning, ]7th.—Started again with our friend Mr. Newlands, in a boat across the river, to visit a portion of the west coast, and stopped at his plantation, " Woody Park," and found here, as everywhere, the great. want of la . - bour. Spent this day and night very pleasantly. Next morn ing, started early for town, where we arrived, highly delighted with our jaunt. Tuesday, 1841.—Returned some visits, and made prepara tions to leave the next day in the steamer. At ten o'clock the next morning took leave of our kind friends and Berbice, and at five were again safe at Georgetown ; spent one day there, by invitation ; started with Mr. Butts, who proffered his carriage and company to visit some of the plantations on the Demerara river, Stopped on the way at several estates. At length we arrived at Mr. Butts' coffee and plantain estate, where we saw everything in order ; had a lunch, then returned to plantation " Hersterling," a very splendid estate—Attor ney, Mr. Retemeyer ; Manager, Mr. Rogers. We parted company with Mr. Butts, who went to town, and we remained to spend a day at this estate. . It rained all the following day, and we had to keep the house, which we spent in reading and writing. The next day, 22d, at ten, cleared off—horses and carriage being ready, visited several plantations, and stopped at " Golden Grove," D . r. Rankin, proprietor, who gave us much encouragement for people to emigrate to this colony. Left here and returned to town, and dined with Mr. Retemeyer, attorney for " Hersterling." Sunday, 23d.—Went to Presbyterian church, which was well attended. In the evening , went to Christ church, (Pro testant ;) here the organ and choir is very good. Monday.—Attended the criminal court to witness some important trials then going on. The court is composed of three judges, as our courts ; and three assessors, who must be tax-payers, are called to take their place in rotation, without regard to colour. We saw, during our attendance, a coloured gentleman occupying that station. Many of the clerks in the public offices are coloured; also, tellers in the bank, &c. We have now got through with nearly all our excursions, and are anxiously waiting to get conveyance to Trinidad. We are told that we must wait for the steam-packet, which is daily expected as she is now due. There is no direct communication between this place and Trinidad. On the 28th, dined with Mr. Wishart, a gentleman of colour, where we met with several white gentlemen, and everything was in harmony with their professions. We spent quite an agreeable evening. March lst.Sunday forenoon, went to Independent chapel (Methodist.) In the afternoon, to the Catholic, and in the evening to the Protestant churches. Wednesday, 4th.—Received a polite invitation from a Mr. Montaroux, proprietor of " Big Diamond," which is about eight miles from town, to ride out in his gig, which he sent by a servant, to breakfast ; then to visit the " Sand Hills," the beginning of the high land, distant from Georgetown not over twenty-five miles • in a few minutes we were on the road, and arrived in good time to breakfast. As soon as the tide served, our boat being well provided with provisions, as well as everything else, we set sail with wind and tide in our favour, and at six we dined. being then near by. At twenty minutes past six, we landed on a rising ground, which we ascended, and found ourselves upon a beautiful table-land of very great space ; this high land being first in the interior, it is at least sixty or seventy feet above the rest of the land ; but we are informed the land rises from this, up, forming beautiful table-lands to a great extent, which is untouched by the hand or feet of man. After stopping at Mr. Brotherson's all night, which was very pleasant and cool, we started the next morning on the way back ; but, according to promise, our friend, Mr. Mon taroux, made us stop on the way down, to pay visits to two estates. In order, was plantation " Veeverly Force," pro prietor Mr. Dodson, who had waited breakfast for us. Staid here but a short time, then walked over a fine road (for which this colony is famotth,) to the next estate, with Mr. M'Clel lan, the manager ; this estate is called " Vrieseland," and we must say, that this is certainly one of the most delightful and best cultivated estates in the colony. The cottages and head-men's houses are extremely comtortable and handsome ; in fact, every thing and every person wore quite an animated and cheerful appearance. After spending some time here, we embarked in our boat, which had been brought down to this place by the boatman ; in a very short time we landed at the " Big Diamond," from whence we started, being highly delighted with our jaunt. We spent quite an agreeable evening with our friend and his interesting family. 6th.—Rose early and started for town, as we feared the packet had come in, and we might miss that chance to get on to Trinidad. On our arrival, found the packet in—made preparation to start in her for Grenada, which is the nearest place to Trinidad that the packet touches. We will now endeavour to give the result of our researches. In the first place we will begin with_ THE CLIMATE It being a part of the rainy season, we therefore saw it in its worst aspect. The thermometer ranging from 78 to 83 deg. The sun rising in a bank of vapourish clouds. At seven or eight o'clock, the sea-breeze springs up from the east, and though it clears the atmosphere, the . sun is by no means as oppressive as we frequently experience it in June, July, and August. At the rainy season, at times, it rains very hard for a short time, stops suddenly and clears up. Sometimes it rains regularly every forenoon, and in the after noon it is clear : at another tune it rained every night, and in the day scarcely a shower. On two different days while we were there, it rained all day.* * We were in the colony from the morning of the 21st of January, until the 10th of March, seven weeks. (To be concluded in our next.) Taglinni is gone to Paris, but is expected to return about the 23d instant to fulfil a short engagement previous to her departure for the north of Europe. _ . 1 ` CLOSE OF THE PARTY WARFARE FOR THE SES S ION." —"There has been a murrain amongst the bills this week," sayethe Examiner, on Sunday, under the above head. There has been not only murrain amongst the bills, but murder— murder most foul as at the best it is, but in the case of Lord John Russell's bills, most wilful and unnatural. Tom Thumb was accused of making giants for the glory of killing them; but the accusation is not supposed by our best critics to amount-to anythhig more than that Tom told fibs ; whereas Lord John is clearly guilty of the wanton cruelty of creating monsters for no other purpose than having something pf his own to.strangle, in polite exchange for the measures which he chokes of his opponents. At the close of the session, it would puzzle a lawyer from Philadelphia to say what par liament has done, beyond, by one of the most lazy operations in the world, lumping an additional five per cent. on all taxes' for an increase of revenue. The old tale about Torn and Jack, in " Joe Miller," upon which Mr. Shiel was so surprisingly witty last session when he himself had nothing to do, has been verified over again, or, rather, improved upon. Tom was doing nothing, and Jack's apology for idle ness was that he was helping Tom. Ministers would do nothing, and their apology is that their time has been fully taken up in preventing the opposition from doing anything. This is the " party warfare" of the expiring session ; but, as to its coming to a close, 4if there is any truth in a whio., the public at present have only had a foretaste of it. Lord John has counted up his speeches on the Reform Bill, and s finding that he spoke on 62 successive nights in'favotir of 'it; viiws' that he can and will speak a hundred and twenty-four nights against Lord Stanley's measure next session as affecting it. It has always been a question amongst the learned, whether bellows were known in Vulcan's time, or whether he puffed his own fire with hi s own lip s . The authorities preponderate in favour of the latter supposition, and the exercise of not the best pair of lungs in the world, with which Lord John promises to amuse us, will go pro tanto to confirm it as pos sible. All that Lord John has got to mind is,, that his fire is not put out before the time comes for performing the feat. —Morning Herald. The CHEAP POSTAGE. BUBBLE. — The Post-office revenue loses a million a-year by the inventions of the well-paid Mr. Rowland Hill, which were to increase the revenue by the reduction of the postage. What real, true, and un qua lifi e d donkeys ministers must have been to listen to such an ab surdity—what rogues they must be to have ventured to talk of the decrease of Post-office dues as a relief to the poor. The poor never write—why should they, even if they could ? What has a poor man, either mechanic or field-labourer, to write about to. anybody; or when is he to find time if he could write, and had anything to say ? Ihe reduction was made to favour rich merchants, whose wealth may be natu rally calculated by the extent of their correspondence. A house paying £2OOO a year postage, is proportionally so much richer and more important than a house paying £1000; but who complained of it ? Nobody ; and yet this absurdity is brought forward as a boon to the people ; a boon so great, and its effects so surprising, that it was thought that every man, woman, and child. who could string three syllables to gether, would occupy all their time (to spare) in writing to their friends, so as to make up the deficiency produceable by the diminution. Mark the result—one million a year is cut off the revenue by the Tom-foolery, with all its idiotic slab bering stamps, and its absurd and indecent envelopes —a flagrant disgrace to a country of which a youthful lady is the Sovereign. But what happens ? Why, to make up for this deficiency, the people—that class of the people who really pay taxes—are to be screwed, whether they write letters or not. Surely this is hard upon people who never disturbed themselves or anybody else about postage. and especially hard upon members of parliament, of either house, who never paid postage, and whose degradation and inconvenience appear really and truly to have been two of the main objects of the measure. However, as we have before observed, the moment the people who do not write, and never—or if ever, very seldom —want to write, begin, as they must begin next year, to find the absolute necessaries of life taxed and " dutified," they will become even more grateful to the new poor law government than they are now.--John imparts'.

Some parcels of Wheat and Flour, in bond, have however, changed hands at fully our last quotations, and the importers and holders appear generally pretty confident. At this (lay's market we had a thin attendance, and the settled appearance of the weather counteracted the advance yesterday in Mark-lane so that the transactions were only to a very moderate extent, and at about the prices of this day week.
