GEO. MACKENZIE.

LOWER CANADA, July 20.
i•

We have nothing new here—all is tranquil at present,
and quiet as the tomb. The object of the present Governor, Sir
J. Kempf, appears to be almost exclusively an endeavour t• conci-
liate all parties, which, if be accomplish, be will do more than any
preceding Governor—for it is a fact that almost all his predeces-
sors have been at drawn daggers with the House of Assembly. As
to the great body of inhabitants, termed French Canadians, I never
bad but one opinion, which is, that while their primitive institu-
tutions are upheld, the immunities of their Clergy left unmolested,
their customs as little trenched upon as possible, and above all, to
keep them as unmixed as possible from the Camelion-like mass
that surrounds them, they will remain a happy people ; and I will
venture to say, will form the strongest barrier against foreign en.
croachment. But if new-fangled systems are attempted to be in-
troduced, with a view of investing British capital or otherwise,
by which any serious innovation will be made upon the confirmed
habits of this simple, honest, and hardy race of men, from that
moment the bond of confidence will be broken, and our ambi-
tious neighbours will tamper with their loyalty. The penetrating
glance of Mr. Pitt at once pointed out the line of policy to be pur-
sued as respected their happiness, and strengthening their attachment
to England, which was to keep them as separate as passible from the
motley multitude which surrounds them, and between whom there
can scarcely be a single point of concordance. A more lighthearted
and happier race of men do not exist than the Canadians. The
Priest sets all right with respect to conscience, and it is a maxim
with the Canadian, that " sufficient for the day is the evil thereof."
If he possess the means of present enjoyment, he is the gayest of
the gay, and never trusts to the morrow fur the reversion of an
enjoyment he can accomplish to-day. In fact, if left unmolested,
they are a quiet, inoffensive, happy, laborious, and loyal people.—
Nor do they want to be initiated into the trick and traverse of the
slab-sided Yankee, the gloomy pound-shilling-and-pence calcula-
tion of Scotch profundity, the disgusting surly selfishness of the
Dutchman, the incessant neck-or-nothing speculations of John
Bull, or the Irish shillelagh dance ! All these things Jean Baptiste
feel happy in being a stranger to. He is taunted with being ig-
norant, but his life is an Elysium compared to most of those who
look down upon him.
Bonaparte, in his Russian campaign, should have had Canadian
horses. In winter the icicles may be seen hanging to their noses
a foot in length, like the drops of a chandelier, and they sometimes
get little but straw to eat. These animals, although not over swift,
will undergo an immensity of fatigue, and are proof against hard
fare. Frezen all over till they are as white as a Counsellor's wig,
the intensity of the weather seems to have no effect upon them.

GENEVA, Scptember 10.

I arrived here last night from Poligny, having been
exactly seven days in performing the journey from Paris. This
was in a great measure in consequence of the ainsost impassable
state of the roads, owing to the constant and most incessant rains.
On ascending the Jura, I was horrified at an accident which
occurred about a quarter of an hour before I reached the sad scene
of the catastrophe. While dining at Poligny, the diligence of
M . Lafitte and Co. got the start of our carriage; but we soon
again overtook the public conveyance, but only to find the
postillion a corpse! The night was fearfully dark and stormy ;
the rain fell in torrents, and the horse on which the postillion rode
having made a false step in descending one of the heights with
which the Jura abounds, the rider was precipitated, and before he
could recover himself the wheel of the carriage had passed over
his head and crushed it to atoms. The horror of those travel-
ling in the diligence may be conceived, but the inconvenience
cannot. In the middle of an inclement tight the travellers
were obliged to remain in the carriage while the condueteur
of the vehicle sought an authority, somewhat like our Co-
roner, to verify the death, and take the necessary deposi-
tions touching its cause. This occupied at least two hours,
at the end of which time the canductPur took the place of the pos-
tilion to Morey, the post•house. I could not Icon, nor do I in.
deed believe, that the accident originated in any carele•snnru of the
driver; but more than one of the inmates of the diligence hinted
that one of the horses was new to harness, and therefore unfit to
be yoked on such as road. En peasant. I may remark in general,
that the French roads are pre-eminently the worst in Europe. and
the postillions and posting are quite worthy of them.
Geneva has much increased in size since my last visit, and an
entirely new street has been built more magnificent than any which
hitherto existed. This street resembles in its size and the structure
of its houses the Rue de Rivoli at Paris. Geneva has latterly
profited largely by the influx of English to and from Italy and
Switzerland, who are all more or less purchasers of its jewellery,
trinkets, and renowned musical boxes. Among the uunaber of
those who have lately passed from Rome on their way to Engl..nd,
are fir. James Paul Cobbett, and his sister Miss Cobbett, un their
way to England. Put more of Geneva and its visitors in another
letter.

PRIPILEGE,OF THE BAR.

In the course of last summer, a young Barrister, named
Croke, was committed by the order of Darly G. Grady, Esq.
(brother to the Chief Baron,) a Magistrate presiding at Petty Ses-
sions, for presuming to address the Bench in his professional ca-
pacity, when he was ordered not to do so by Mr. O'Grady. At
the time that Mr. Croke was committed, a person happened to be
on trial for perjury, and Mr. O'Grady is saki to have made a re-
mark, to the effect that it was curious a Barrister and a perjurer
should be beside eath other. At the Cork Assizes, Mr. Croke bad
a meeting called of the Munster Bar, to which he belongs. A
strong feeling of indignation was manifested by every Member of
the Bar at the manner in which one of their profession had been
treated. Some of the junior Members wished to have Mr. O'Grady
called out, but the majority of the senior Members, amongst whom
were Mr. Sergeant Goold, Mr. Bennett, Mr. O'Connell, and Ur.
Jackson, were for adopting a cow se more in accordance with their
profession. It was agreed to call a General Meeting of the Bar of
Ireland at the end of the Michaelmas Term, to consider what pro-
ceedings should be adopted. A requisition for this purpose was
placed in the law library, and has already received upwards of two
hundred signatures. We believe the course that will be proposed
will be, to appoint a deputation of the senior Members of the six
provincial bars to wait upon the Lord Chancellor, and request of
bitLordsliip to remove Mr. O'Grady from the Commission of the
Peace.

11. for habitual Sore:Throats, Hoarseness, Relaxation of Uvala.
and a refreshing stimulous during Field Sports. These Lozenges
have received a patronage almost unprecedented in the above cases ;
they are also of great utility to persons in the habit of Public
Speaking ; and the highest testimony in the Musical World has
been advanced in their favour, where the Voice has been influenced
by a humid Atmosphere, and diminished in tone. On this consi-
deration they are particularly useful to Travellers, who ate una-
voidably exposed to damp.

Venders in the Kingdom. Of whom may be had the ANTACID
LOZENGES OF QUININE, recommended in all Affections of
:he Stomach, such as Indigestion, Heartburn, Acidity, Flatulence.
arid general weakness of that Organ. They are found extremely
serviceable in Gouty Attacks, especially when the Stomach is more

HISTORICAL PARALLELS.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE STAR.
..—.— Ere it be long, you'll dream of such a man
Where, waking, shall I find him?"

Tour.

Si u— As one of your numerous and ingenious Corres-
pondents, has lately favoured your readers with a few
Literary Coincidences,' perhaps some other would be
good enough to point out to the observation of mankind
the living parallel to an eminent Historical character,
described by COWLEY in the following passage of his
Essay upon " Greatness" :
" The first ambitious men in the world, the old Giants,
are said to have made an heroical attempt of scaling
Heaven, in despight of the Gods, and they cast Ossa
upon Olympus, and Pelion upon Ossa : two or three
mountains more they thought would have done their
business, but the thunder spoiled all their work, when
they were come to the third story.

And what a noble plot was crest,
And what a brave design was lost !
A famous person of their offspring, the late giant of our
nation, when from the condition of a very inconsiderable
Captain, he had made himself Lieutenant-General of an
army of little Titans, which was his first mountain ; and
afterwards, General, which was the second ; and after
that absolute Tyrant of three Kingdoms, which was the
third, and almost touched the Heaven which he affected,
is believed to have died with grief and discontent, because
he could not attain to the honest name of a King, and
the old formality of a Crown, though he had before ex-
ceeded the power by a wicked usurpation."
This is a portrait to which the Artist had but little
occasion to append the name of the original—such
terrible fidelity is there in every feature—and though this
country may never " look upon his like again" (which
Heaven forefend !) yet it is scarcely to be questioned
that many of his most formidable attributes have been
emulated by men who have wielded the political power of
the mighty Empire over which he played the Despot.
The Eloquence of CROMWELL found a remarkable pa-
rallel in the " metaphoric fringes" the bewildering mazes,
the " most admired disorder" of CASTLEREAGH lo-
quacity : but it occurs to me, that, under a very different
order of things, the Ambition of the PROTECTOR would
have been illustrated iu a still more extraordinary manner
by a living Statesman. How admirably has Shakespeare—
that oracle of Nature—depicted the vengeful spirit of an
absolute Minister, in the caution given by No aromi to
the ill-fated BUCKINGHAM
" I advise you
rd take it from a bean that wishes towards you
r and plenteous safety,) that you read
The Cardinal's malice and his potency
Together : to consider further, that
What his high hatred would effect, wants not
A minister in his power. You know his nature
That be's revengeful ; and I know his sword
Batik a sharp edge ; loot, and it may be said.
It reaches far; and where 'twill not extend
Thither he darts it.—"

The parallel to COWLEY'S Hero, may not perhaps be
supplied: but I have, even now, the counterpart of this
sketch of WoLsEY "in my mind's eye."

TAO* 111. BARROW TO UR EDWARD.

•' Admiralty Office, June 22, 18E9.
6" Sta—Having laid before my Lords Commissioners of the
Admiralty your letter of the 14th instant, ezplaining the circum-
stances under which Captain Dickenson had received two Russian
decorations, on account of his services at Navarin, I have their
Lordships' commands to acquaint you that they have informed that
officer th4f the Order which he has lately received appears to have
been sent to bins by mistake. that they cannot therefore give their
sanction to his wearing it, and that he is to return It to me, in
order that the mistake may he explained to the Russian Ambas-
sador; and as their Lordships understand that under a mistake of
a similar nature Russian decorations have been transmitted 10
Captains Baynes and Campbell cwhich Captain Haynes has re-
ceived, though Captaiu Campbell s has not yet been delivered)
their Lordships have cated upon the former of those two officers
to return his decoration, in order that it may he sent with the two
others to the Russian Ambassador. Their Lordships direct me
also to acquaint you, chat they had sanctioned Captain Dickenson'a
receiving the first Order (like the other officers commanding ships
in the action at Navarin) because he had succeeded to the com-
mand of the Genoa after the Captain had been carried below ; but
observing in your letter that Captain Dickensun's conduct in those
circumstances was not satisfactory to you, they desire you will
state the particulars In which you saw reason to disapprove the
conduct of Captain Dickenson, in order that their Lordships may
judge whether it may be necessary to take any turther proceedings
with regard to him.

" Baton square, June 24, 1429.
Sia.—ln answer to the directions of the Lords Commissuners
of the Admiralty contained in your letter of the 22d instant, ' that
I should state the particulars in which I saw reason to disapprove
the conduct of Captain Dickenson after he had succeeded to the
command of the Geuua,' I beg to inform their Lordships that the
Genoa did not use her spring. as the other ships did, but engaged
with her stern and quarter guns only ; that her mizen mast was
allowed to go by the board the day atter the battle ; that although
les. injured than the Asia, the Albion, or the ships of either of the
Allied Admirals, she was the last ship ready to leave the port, even
after having had a whole watch of the Glasgow to assist her ; that
Captain Dickenson reported Captain Bathurst killed, although he
did not die until about three o'clock on th morning of the '3lst of
October, and after he bad himself cs.nducted nte to him in the
cock-pit, at eight o'clock on the evening of the tOtb. I think
it right also to add, that according to a copy of what I
understand to be the ship's log, the 0010411 is stated to have used
her spring-, although Captain Dickenson admitted to me that she
had not done so, owing to his Inability to get the men away front
their guns; and that she is there reported to have successfully en-
gaged all the three Ottoman ships of tor hoe, and one more double
frigate than there weir in the fleet; wheat the tact is, that owing
to her not using her springs, the fire of her sawn opponent would
not have been silenced but fur the exertions of th • other ships of
our squadrons.
" It did nut appear to me that any benefit would be derived to
the service from my publicly reporting at the time this interiority
of conduct evince[ in the Genoa after she fell under the con,.
mend of Captain Dickenson, more particularly as I hid the plea-
su.e of expressing my marked admiration of the manner in which
that ship had taken up her station under Captain Bathurst. But
under the circumstances of Captain Baynes and Capt:in Campbell
not being coneideted as entitled to any RUlliilll distinctions,
although their conduct was most satisfactory to me its every res-
pect, I cannot but regret that any such disainstions should be
conferred upon. Captain Dicken.on.

w ill engr4ve more and more in the mind the indispensible necessity
of the Jury, as a part of the guarantees, without which the liberty
of the press will be always a fiction. Seeing these results, so im-
portant so society, those who have brooch. them tout do hot think
them ton dearly purchased by a niontb's imprisonment and a fine
of .500 francs. - -
The Ministers continue to deny that they have thought of Coups
/'Eton, and of an additional article to the Charter. The denials of
the areetie take a mote open character. As the Opposition Jour-
nals have penetrated into the guilty rrojects, the Ministers seem to
retreat : they fear that France, instructed in time, will oppose an
energetic resistance to the follies of the Court. We do not say
that they have completely given up such projects, they have only
delayed the period of execution. The citizens ought, therefore, to
be watchful still, fur the blew may in truth be given at the very
moment when it is least expected.

COOP'S O. ♦HDtIWII.

This was an action to recover damages for an assault, and false

imprisonment.
The plaintiff, a respectable young man, clerk to sit Attorney,
was passing the watch-house of St. Olave, Southwark, one night
in March last, when the defendant, who is a constable, rushed
upon him in a state of drunkenness, dragged him by the collar into
the watch-house before the watch-house-keeper, and kept bim
locked up all night. A person who applied to bail him was re-
jected. The next morning, at ten o'clock, the defendant gave him
his liberty without making any charge before a Magistrate.
Mr. Tstitssitan endeavoured to prove that the defendant had
acted under the authority of a local Act of Parliament, but failed
in that attempt. He then admitted that his client had behaved
improperly. By his misconduct he had ruined himself ; and any
damages the Jury might give would consign him to a prison.
The Jury found a verdict for the plaintiff—Damages £lO.

OLD BAILEY SESSIONS, Oct. 30.

(Before Mr. Baron GARROW.)

Wiliam &ay, aged forty-four, stood indicted for breaking and
entering the dwelling-house of Richard Kemble, of lianwell, Mid.
dlesex, on the 15th instant, and stealing therefrom a handkerchief,
value 3s. his property.
The prosecutor stated that on the morning of the 15th of this
month he went out to work, and on his return he found the pri-
soner is bis house. The prisoner had been a lodger of his, and had
left him but two days before. On enquiring what brought him
there, he stated that he had come to get some money he had left.
He gave him into custody, and, on searching him, the officer found
the handkerchief in question.
The Jary returned a verdict of Guilty, but recommended him
to mercy.
James Cussosbsgs, aged 38, stood indicted for maliciously
maiming, with intent to murder, Catherine his wife, on the sth of
August last.
Mr. C. Panties, for the prosecution, stated the case to the
Jury. The prisoner is a tailor by trade, and on the day in ques-
tion he returned home to dinner, when he seized an iron, and
struck the prosecutrix in the most brutal manner. She imme-
diately cried " Murder," when some of her neighbours came in,
and rescued her.

The proiecutriz was obliged to he supported by a nurse ; she
appeared in the most dreadful state of weakness and anxiety of
mind; she repeatedly said it was her fault, and it was with the
greatest difficulty she could be prevailed on to give her evidence.
She then deposed that she lives at No. 8. Church-lane, St. Giles's ;
on the sth of August she was cooking a dinner for her husband
and children. A few words ensued on her asking him why he
did not bring her home some money? She struck him with the
iron, when he said he had a great mind to strike her again, at
which she dared him to do so; he then struck her and did her
great bodily harm, from the effects of which she has ever since
been suffering.
After some deliberation the Jury returned a verdict of—Not
Guilty.
