CANADA.

The population Of Canada is rapidly increas-
ing both by emigration, and by natural in
crease. That of Lower Canada, according to
the official returns made last winter, was
1879 The number Of settlers who have ar
rived at Quebec from Great Britain and Ire
land, within the last eight years, is little short
of 10000, of whom it is computed that about
third have settled in Lower Canada, third in
Upper Canada, and the other third have come
to the United States. The population Of Up
per Canada is found by late official returns to
amount 10 2sl .77s souls. The number of acres
Of land in the province under cultivation, is l.

The Richmond Enquirer Of the 9th ult.
observes
"Almost every exer,ion which has been made
for the bene6, Of Mr.. Jefferson or his family,
has proved unavaiing. The amount of private
subscriptions is incompetent to relieve them
from their endorsements The Lottery scheme
is not likely to sue coed under its present aus.
pieces. What then is 10 be done? Shall we
wait until the General Government shall do
what they have probably no right to attempt
and make an appropriation, or extend its bene
6cence in some shspeor other, for the relief OF
Mr.. Jefferson's heir. If any thing is to be done
by the power Of any government, who so pro-
perIy calculated to contribute something as the
State Of Virginia.

We extract the following, as giving useful
hint to agrculturalsts:
"One of the most simple and useful discove-
ries in agriculture, is TO mix layers of green or
new cot clover, with layers of straw in ricks;
thus the strength Of the clover is absorbed BY
the straw, which thus unpregnated, both horses
and cattle eat greedily, and the clover is dried
and prevented from heating. This practice is
particularly calculated for second crops Of clo-
yer and rye grass

concern to the State we hastened to over
take it, and to salute the inmates, as in du-
ty bound, with the courtesies of the morn
ing. On nearing it, voice, familiar to Us
was drscanting OH the propriety and ncces-
sity of having a banking institution estab-
lished at the northeastern extremity of the
town, in the vicinity Of the Blackstone Ca
nal. The voice rapidly raised to higher
kew, as the orator became more and more
animated, and we distinctly heard him dt-
clare, that the project of having bank
located in the place alluded to, had for
more than twenty years occupied his serious
and undivided attention; and continued the
orator, if John r Waterman, of Kent, OPP
poses the petition which j shall prese't t"
the House for consideration, III blow him
up sky high, by all fre-lock. "My plan Is
TO let every tub stand upon its own bottom,
and between you and aud the post, Wa
terman had as lief go to the devil, as to op-
pose any measure IN which the senior edi-
tor of the Patriot is interested. IN carry
the petition through the House quicker ihan
cat can lick her ear"
The gentlemen to whom this eloquent
speech was addressed, and they are as in
telligent us others, did not seemto swallow
it as sterling coin, and one Of them, distin-
guished by white hat, gave an os'ique
wink to his colleague, on the opposite side
of the carriage, and whispered-he's slip
perry, he wont sticls-ma my words, lie II
dodge us when he comes to the hour of trial.

PORTRAITS OF TEa OPPOSITION
NO. Y n
LITTLETON w. TlZEAELL

In attempting to deineate the character
Of the Hon. LITTlEToN w. TAzEwELL, we
feel no small delicacy, and had rather been
spared the task, if he had not, for reasons
to himself perfectly satislacto y, identified
himself with the opposition party; and that
too a: a time, when he must have been fully
satisfied that he was undertaking to oppose
an administration, the origin of which COM
ports with his own views, and the acts Of
which, if he will but be candid, are in uni
son with his own wishes and opinions
Mr.. TazeweII was formed by nature, and
calculated by education, to fill distinguish
ed place in the rela ions of life; and had
not his whole mind and soul been too much
absorbed i'll conce:vng pans to further his
own fame, and TO fill his own pockets,
would ere this, hey ond doubt, have been
elevated to some Of the first honours of his
country But from his youth upwards, his
prevailing feelings and principles, have led
him on to the acquisition of wealth and
fame by little and underhand measures,
and whilst he has grasped al the shadow lie
has lost the substance
His early life opened at time, when
party spirit ran high; and descended from a
family, the long line Of whose ancestors
was identified with the wealth and political
fame of "the ancient dominion" fair OPP
ponunity presented itself, which if eagerly
embraced and improved, could not have
failed in establishing his reputation, as one
among the first and most eminent Of Amer
ican Statesmen But as he was too tilnd
to risk aIy thing, and too servile and syco-
phantic, to adopt that independent course,
which can alone make the man, he deter
mined to hold himself aloof, till favoura-
bl opportunity should present itself for him
to spring upon that side which was the most
numerous in Its catalogue of pertizans; and
thus without risklng any thing, ride upon
the whirlwind of popular favor.
1t was about this period, that those great
parties, the Democratic aud Federalist,
began to assume for liable aspect, and
to distract the nation with their acrimonious
disputes, and the members of each, were
desirous Of enlisting into their ranks the
first talent and influence the country could
afford.
In the year 1893, Mr.. Tazewcll made his
first appearance as political parsonage,
having been elected to represent the Bor.
ough Of Norfolk in the Virginia Legisla-
ture; and though he at once displayed the
extraordinary capacities of the man of gen
ius, he was looked upon with distrust, and
regarded as political do ger and trimmer.
