FOREIGN 4- COLONIAL INTELLIGENCE

ARRIVAL OF THE HIBERNIA

r Prom our Second Edition of Tuesday last.)

This noble steam-ship arrived in the river this morning
at half-past four. She sailed from Boston at half-past
three p.m. on the Ist instant, and arrived at noon on the
third at Halifax, at which port she remained four hours
and a half. She has thus accomplished the passage from
Halifax, allowing for the difference of time, in ten days
and seven hours. She has brought over forty-three pas-
sengers, a list of whom we subjoin. She appears to have
experienced strong breezes principally from the west and
north-east.

of wilful murder was returned against him.
Meetings were in course of being held in every part of
Upper Canada, demanding the removal of the seat of go-
