MrSsT0N3RIES,

Governor Brock, of Upper Canada, in his
speech to the legislature OF that province, has
the following paragraph:
cannot deny myself the satisfaction of
announcing to you from this place, the NUM-
hcent intention of his royal highness, the
Prince Regent, who has been gsaciously pleas
ed TO signify that a grant OF one hundred
pounds per annum will be proposed in the an
nual estimate for every future Missionary of
the Gospel, sent from England, who may have
faithfully discharged for the term often years,
the duties of his station in this province.
The following is copied from the Column
bian of last;evening, Some ofthe readers of
that paper will wonder how it came there !:
the good natured editor ofsshe National Intel
Hgencer will no doubt ascribe its insertion to
accident.

aThe glorious contest in which the British
empire is engaged, and the vast sacrifices
which Great Britain molly offers to secure the
independence of other nations, might be eX-
pected to stihe every feeling of envy and jea-
! lousy, and at the same time to excite the inte-
rest and command the admiration OF free
people but regardless of such generous i'm
pressons, the American government epnces
: disposition calculated to impede and divide
her efforts.
Englandis not only interdieted the harbors
Of the United States, while they afford shell
ter to her inveterate enemy, but she is like
wise required to resign those maritime rights
which she has SO long exercised and enjoyed.
Insulting threats are offered and hoatile prepa-
rations actually commenced and though not
without hope that cool reflection and the die
tates of iustice may vet avert the calamities OF
war, | cannot under every view ofthe relative
situation ofthe province, be too urgent in re-
commencing TO your early attention, the adep-
tion of such measures as will best secure the
internal peace OF the country, aid defeat eve
ry hostile aggression.
Principally composed ofthe sons Of a loyal
and brave band of veterans, the militia, | am
confident, stand in need of nothing but the
necessary Legislative provisions, to direct their
ardor in the requirement of military instr NC
tons to form most efficient force. The
growing prosperity of these provinces, 1t Is
manifest, begins to awaken spirit of envy
and ambition. The acknowledged importance
Of this colony to the parent state, will secure
the continuance of her powerful protection.
Her fostering care, as being the first cause,
under Providence, Of the uninterrupted happi-
ness you have so long enjoyed Your indus
try has been literally rewarded, and you have
In consequence risen to opulencs."
Extract from, the ,dnsrver.
mWe unite with your honor in the hope,
Notwithstanding the hostile preparations OF that
government, the United States that cool re-
Election and the dictates of justice and sound
policy may yet avert the caiamires OF war,
In conformity to the Recommendation O
your honor, We shall pay early attention to the
adoption of uch,measules as shall appear to us
best calculated to secure the internal peace OF
the country, and defeat every hostile aggres'
sion"
