city witnessed the extraordinary sight of a num-

arriving from Bordeaux, in. France, It is fifty,-
five years since any vessels arrived at Quebec from
Bourdeaux. In the course of the afternoon the

UPPER CANADA, JUNE* 6. —Several_ persons
were apprehended last autumn. in the district of
London, in Upper Canada, ,for acts of open re-
bellion. Their plan was to seize upon all the loyal
subjects in their vicinity, and send them to Buffuloe,
as prisoners of war. Several persons were actually
seized, and-carried to the enemy; Who rewarded
the. captors for, their services; and encouraged
them to persevere. Elated by the defeat of Gen.
Proctor, looking forward to the total subjugation
of the province, and expecting immediate aid from
the foe, they became less Faaided, and pUblicly
avowing their nefarious purposes, began to plun-
der as well as. to take prisoners. The country got
alarmed—the loyal militia assembled under-Capt.
:Bostwick, seized upon time ring-leaders, and crush-
ed the whole conspiracy. It was determined
to try the -criminals immediately after- their ap-
prehension, by a special commission, but many.
unforeseen impediments hindered the Court from
assembling till the 23d of May, when it met
at Ancaster, near Burlington Heights. Mr.
Chief Justice Scott and Mr. Justice Campbell
preside Indictments for high treason are fonnd
against 51. persons, of whom 19 being, in custody,
are to be brought. to trial immediately. The fimt
trial will be held on the 7th, where Mr. Justice
Powell, whos.e bad health prevented his appear-
int, at the first opening of the Court, will attend.
The prosecutions on the part of the Crown are
managed by. John Robinson, Esq. Acting Attor-
ney-General, and Geor'ge, ]tedant, Esq. Council
for the Crown. No trials of equal importance
have ever come before any Court of justice in this
country.:
The trials for high treason had commenced at
Ancaster, Upper Canada, and We understand that
ten persons, by the last advices, had been con-
victed. We have not heard that any of the friends
of-the late unfortunate " Curran'' attended'. .
