The Courier's editorial remarks, if to
be taken as speaking the language ofthe
administration, which j. perhaps doubt
ful, do not look much like giving way on
the Catholic question.
The table OF The House of Lords, wasy
we observe, covered with petitions from
the Clergy, against concessions 10 the
Catholics.

item respecting duelling.
The proposed new criminal code OF
the Canton of the Grisons contains the
following articles relative TO duelling:

cd to stand half an hour in the pillorys

Of the parties, his death is to be consis
dered a, deliberate murder, and the sur

represented as i1onrishing beyond all
former precedents. Artisans of every
description we're in full employment
and so anxious were the manufacturers
to have their orders executed, that it
was by no means an uncommon thing to
lock up the doors where the workmeu
were, and to supply them with food grcS
ets, in order to save tho time which would
otherwise be expended in going TO their
respective NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. to i'm
mense amounts were daily received az
the manufacturing towns. many Of which
could not be fulfilled within the prescribe
ed period. Wages were every where
extremely high, and mechanics were en-.
abled to fare sumptuously tor seven
days, out of the proceeds of two days
work. Even common laborers were in
such demand as to cause considerable
rise in their wages. A MecclesGeld
paper adver,ses for 4 to 5000 persons,
from to 90 years of age, TO be employ
ed in the silk trade.
