EXTRACT OF A LETTER PEON! QCEBEC, DATED JUNE 23

" We are all sadly vexed at a report of the intended re.sig-
nation of Sir John Colborne, a man who has united the mild-
ness of a parent and the energy of a soldier—one whose aim,
whilst in the Upper Province and before the disturbances,
was to exert himself to the utmost to assist and improve the
situation of the numerous emigrants who proceeded to that
province. From
.proceedings at the Castle which have
leaked out, a war with our neighbours is not a little talked of.
Lord Durham has sent for Sir John Harvey. Trade at
Montreal, and in the Upper Province especially, is very
bad."
