PROPOSED CANADIAN FENCIBLE

REGIMENT.

A proposal, of which the following is the Abstract, has been made
by Wm. Alexander Mackinnon, Esq., the Member for Lymington, to
her Majesty's Government :

That considerable distress is felt at this time in the Western High_
lands of Scotland, from want of employment.
That an active and hardy race of young men are left destitete, and
prove a burden to their families and to the landed proprietors. That these
men are willing to emigrate, and that their attachment to the mother
country would continue as colonists. . .

That the year 1794 some Fencible Regiments were embodied in the
Highlands, who afterwards went and settled in some of our colonial
possessions, and have always evinced a strong attachment to the mother
country.
• "

The offer has been made by Mr. Mackinnon to raise one regiment of
I,OOG men, or more, from the population of the clan that bears his name,
and neighbouring clans, on the following conditions :
That every man who is enlisted shall be entitled to fifty acres of land
in Canada, which shall be assigned him if his services are no longer re-
quired in that Province, after the expiration of three years. The non-
commissioned officers to have a proportionate number of acres.
Mr. M. to have the disposal of the commissions, and the regiments to
receive their pay and clothing from Government.

Officers on the half-pay of the British Army to be eligible to take
commissions, retaining their half-pay. _ _

At the end of three years' service, the regiment to be disembodied,
and located in their land adjoining each other, which land they
are to retain in fee on condition of doing eight days' exercise under
their officers in the course of the year, and of being again embodied
should the local Government of Canada, or the Executive Government
here, deem their services necessary for the public tranquillity. If em-
bodied, to receive the same pay, clothing, and allowance,'ns the other
forces in her Majesty's service.
February, 1838.

CHANCERY COURT.-(THIS DAY.)

The LORD CHANCELLOR sat in Lincoln's Inn Hall today, and pro,
ceeded with the hearing of appeals.
London, England, 1838-02-10

THE NEW POOR LAW.

This morning a Special Session was held at Guildhall, before the
Recorder, Sir J. Key, Sir C. Marshall, Aldermen Pirie, Lainson, Har-
mer, &c. &c., for the purpose of hearing complaints of persons who
felt themselves aggrieved by excessive assessments.

The RECORDER said he had never been at a Special Session before,
and perhaps it might be improper for him to preside at it, as, should
there be any appeal against the decision of the Court the hearing would
probably come before him.

Mr. Locke, of the parish of St. Martin Orgar, complained that he was
assessed at 220/., whereas he only paid 1201. rent to Mr. Thornton, the
landlord, to whom he was tenant at will, and cauld be thrust out at six
months' notice. He had no objection to pay according to the rack
rent. It turned out that the applicant paid 401. more for the use of
the wharf.
Before the matter was decided,

The RECORDER said that as this was a preliminary meeting to clear
the way for further operations, he thought it would be as well for the
proceedings not to go to the world ; yet, at the same time, he begged to
be understood that he was not on a general principle adverse to publicity.
The Reporters present took the hint and Withdrew.

MUSIC.

THE NEW AIUSICA' L ANNUAL for 1838.
Novello, London.

A collection of songs and ballads, the words of which
are by various hands, but the music is exclusively the com-
position of Mrs. Henry Mason, Authoress of the " Vocal
Souvenir." Some of it is very beautiful, especially the air
entitled the " Fairy Glee," which is appropriately set, and
has much grace and variety of melody. " Narcissa ' is in
a more plaintive style, and reminds us, by its tenderness
and delicacy, of some of the most admired of Haynes
Bayly's ballads Mrs. Mason has great skill and feeling as
a composer ; and we know few modern collections of airs,
in the ballad form, more likely to be generally acceptable
to the lovers of music than the present.

Mr. GRIMSDITCH presented ;.c):titiOnfrom Maccles-
field, against the Rating of Small Tenements Bill.
IRISH POOR-LAWS.
Sir F. TRENCH presented a petition from the Lord
Lieutenant (we believe) of some Irish County, the name of
which we could not catch, against the Poor-law (Ireland)
Bill ; stating that if it passed into a law, from 20,000 to
30,000 troops would be required to keep order in that coun-
try ; and praying the House to turn the Bill out, and her
Majesty's Ministers after it.--(Laughter.) The Hon. Mem-
ber then moved that the petition be printed ; but
The SPEAKER reminded him, that unless the Hon.
Member had a motion on the subject to bring forward upon a
near day, the petition could not be printed out of the ordinary
course.

IPSWICH ELECTION COMMITTEE.

(THIS DAY,)

The Liberals struck off this morning the vote of Robinson Taylor
(reporter to the Journal, the Tory paper of ipawich), still proceeding on
ground of objection—change of residence.
the same
This gave Mr. Tut hell a majority of one over Mr. Kelly, they having
been left on an equality last evening.
The Tories then objected to the vote of Mr. R. Titlow. He had
ceased to occupy the house for which he registered, but continued in
possession.
Mr. POLLOCK argued that occupation was only necessary to registra-
tion, not for polling, the question at the poll being simply, whether the
voter remained in "possession" of the qualification for which he re-
gistered.
The Committee, without hearing Mr. Thessiger, decided the vote
to be bad. . _

The Tories next struck off the vote of Mr. Boley.
This gave Mr. Kelly a majority of one.

The Liberals struck off the vote of Edward Pownall ; they were ob-
jecting to that of Mr. Pepper, when it was announced that Mr. Speaker
was at prayers.

ELGIN BURGHS.—Mr. Holt Mackenzie has not
yet made his appearance in Elgin, notwithstanding the requi-
sition addressed to him, and it is confidently believed that Mr.
Fox Maule will walk the course. On Wednesday last Mr.
Maule arrived in Elgin, having fought his way through the
snow, through the Glens of Foudland,,,with men and shovels
to cut a passage for his post-chaise, drawn by six horses, and
carrying the guard and mails 1 On Thursday the electors
met Mr. Maule in the Trades' Hall, to which the Hon. Gen-
tleman was accompanied by Provost M'Kimmie, William
Young, Esq., and some other gentlemen. Mr. Maule ad-
dressed the meeting in a speech which was well received.
Inverness Courier of Wednesday last.
We understand that the Master of Grant has
entered the field against Mr. Fox Maule at Elgin; but we
believe that the Master would have shown more discretion by
remaining at home, than going to Elgin to get defeated.
London, England, 1838-02-10

GUILDHALL.-(THIS DAY.)

Two men of respectable appearance, of the names of Royale and
Phi/bps, and Elizabeth Crooks, with whom the former cohabits, Ayr=
brought up for re-examination.
Elizabeth Connor, who resides at No. 33, Hosier-lane, Smithfield,
stated that on last Tuesday week, a young man of the name of James
Buckle, a box-carrier, &c. at St. Bartholomew's Hospital, brought a
bundle, which he took up to Royale's apartments, who lodged in the
same house. She afterwards discovered that the bundle contained the
body of a dead infant, apparently about ten days or a fortnight old.
The child was shown to her by the female prisoner, who stated that it
was an illegitimate child, which a nurse in the hospital had given birth to.
After hearing evidence, Mr. Alderman BIRCII said he should reniand
the prisoners till Tuesday.

THE FUNDS.-(THIS DAY.)

CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK.

The Halifax Papers, received this day, state that a public meeting
numerously attended took place in the town of Pictou on the '2Bth ult.,
at which resolutions were passed, upon which an Address to her Ma—
jesty is to be founded, expressive of the loyalty of the inhabitants of that
district, and their indignation at the revolutionary proceedings in the
Canadas.

Up to the present time we do not hear of any arrivals from the United
States or Canada, which has greatly disappointed the American
merchants.

We have received the Journal du Commerce of Antwerp, of the 7th
instant, which does not bring any news of importance.

VICE-CHANCERY.-(THIS DAY.)

BIKES AND OTDERS V. X DWAIDS.

arr. KNIGITT Bouca applied to-day, nt the sitting of the Court, on
behalf of the plaintiffs, who are large iron merchants and importers of
Swedish iron in Kingston upon-Hull, fur an injunction to restrain the
defendants from using the word " Sykes" and certain other marks upon
what was called " Hoop L" and other iron manufactured by him. The
Learned Counsel stated that the Court had given leave some days since
to serve a notice personally upon the defendant for an injunction t• re-
strain the use by him of the word " Sykes" and other marks upon iron,
for he use of which Messrs. Sykes and Sons had the exclusive preference
from the Swedish Government. In October last the plaintiffs discovered
that their names had been improperly uscd by the defendant ; and upon
making' an inquiry into the subject, they found that, as long
ao as the month of April last, a gentleman of the name
of Lyndon had bought from the defendant, Iron in bundles, of which
one piece was genuine Iron bought from the plaintiff, and had the name
of " Sykes" upon it. The piece was made to protrude from the other
pieces of Iron with which it was tied up, and which were of a spurious
manufacture. This, the Court must be aware, was a gross fraud. The
facts which he had stated, were all verified by atgdavits, which were not
contradicted. If any person had appeared, then of course, time would
have been given to enable the parties to answer tho affidavits, but as the
parties had been served, and nobody appeared, he believed he was enti-
tled to the Injunction, as a matter of course.
fine VIcE-CusNcatLoa—Certainly take your Injunction.
London, England, 1838-02-28

Mr. Sanderson's statement was then read by the Clerk as i
follows I was not aware when I was drawn on the Com-
mittee that I had voted at an election."
On the motion of Mr. WYNN, Mr. Sanderson was then
excused from further attendance on the London Election
Committee.
Mr. HUME, in answer to an Hon. Member, stated that he
had postponed his motion for the second reading of the County
Rates Bill till that day fortnight.
QUARTER SESSIONS.
Lord J. RUSSELL said he had a notice on the paper for
to-morrow for the introduction of a Bill with regard to
the administration of justice at Quarter Sessions. It was
most important that he snould bring in the Bill on that sub-
ject, and after stating the grounds for his doing so, it was his
intention to move that the further consideration of the measure
should be adjourned to Monday.
On the motion of the LORD ADVOCATE the Small
Debts ( Scotland) Bill was read a second time.
On the motion that the House go into Committee on the
the First Fruits and Tenths Bill,
Mr. G. KNIGHT rose to make some remarks, which were
totally inaudible in the gallery in consequence of the noise
occasioned by Members leaving the House.
Mr. BAINES wished to explain how the matter really
stood. A Committee had been appaointed to inquire
into the subject of the first fruits and tenths, and their
administration, the result of their report was, that they were not
administered in such a way as to be beneficial to the poor clergy.
The present Bill fell far short indeed of the declared inten-
tions and the report of the Honourable Member. He
was willing, however, to believe that in proposing only
the consolidation of the three offices and the Queen
Anne's Bounty, the Honourable Member bad acted in
courtesy towards him, and left the remainder of the
matter in his hands as he had been the person who had originally
taken it up. It would ill become him, therefore, to throw any
obstacles in the way of the Bill, or to upbraid the Hon.
Member for what he had left undone. There were one or
two points in the Bill, however, to which he wished
to call their attention. 30,500/. a-year ought to accrue
to the poorer clergy from this establishment. From this
there was a deduction of 5,000/. a-year for salaries.
He wished to take the management of the funds out of the
hands of the Bishops and to place it in the hands of Commis-
sioners, lay and ecclesiastical, who would manage it for the
benefit of the poor clergy, whose humble advocate he was.
After a few observations from Sir R. Ingless, Mr. Baines,
Lord Sandon, Mr. Estcourt, and Lord John Russell, the
House went into Committee.
