ligious establishment, and the catholic have demolished -our
political institutions, it will he too late to struggle for their con-
servation.
It cannot be too often remarked, that the present question
does not merely affect our religion; but that it is political,
not less than ecclesiastical. The wreck of the church has
generally preceded the subversion of the state. They now
stand together—together they will fall. Attacks on the
church are, where church and state are one, so many indi-
rect advances against the state; and, whenever they pass
with impunity, may bx. regarded as prelusive to revolution
and ruin. England knows nothing of a political constitution,
alienated from her ecclesiastical constitution ; and the Catho-
lie Question, as it seems fashionable to call it, now involves
' the destruction of both.
Imperatively summoned, if the preceding representation
be just, to rally round our existing government, let us pa-
triotically preserve it from those innovations by which it
seems neither partially nor distantly endangered. Our foes
are those of our own house. We are menaced, not indeed
with an invasion of our country, but with an infraction on
that constitution which has hitherto been our security and
our glory; and the consequences resulting from the violation
of which, the stoutest among us might well tremble to anti-
cipate.
Now is the crisis of our fate. " Adhering to those laws
by which the Throne, the Parliament, and te Government
of ibis country are made fundamentally Protestant," and the
Church, connected with that Government, is m;de not less
decidedly Episcopalian, let us be careful to maintain them
the satne ; and deliver unimpaired to our children's children
that excellent Constitution whose advantages have been
repeatedly acknowledged by us, because they have been so
long and so universally felt!

AGRICULTURAL REPORT FOR OCTOBER.
Wheat seed time has been favaitrOle, from the seasonable wags,
er both on tilth land and clover leys: Witte hills in the northern
districts, and also on some in the centf4Ferilnitie of Cannecstec am,
Ostiird, where early sowing is necessary, the voting wheats have
planted well. The Clover St ed, crops have Snifeteil materially in;
most parts, except on warm soils, from which they were gathered
in
the dry season. the Potatoes have afforded, generally. a large peo-
(lnce. The Triruip crops have recovered from the stunt which they
got (luring flue drought, and now promise to he abundant. The con-
tinning fall in all kinds of pain I:as occasioned considerable alarm
through the landed interest ; although the reAuced prices are evi-
dently caused by the immediate general necessity of turning a cer...
lain tpiantity of corn into mOney, and the raeility with which the
threshing mills 'have c&cted this object. This has naturally g Nen
the mercantile speculator a tenipciary advantage over the agricnl-
tnrist, of which the Public, unfortunately, have not their due share.
