Governor Jcnison, it will be perceived has
given us some very good advice in his proc
lamation, for which we ought to be duly
grateful. lie might have added, however,
that stealing fax in the bundle, together with
sundrv other msdemcanors, 'subiccts men to
heavy penalties" and that the claws are very
explicit on Mat subject also-of all which
it is presumed the people are profoundly ig-
norant. Tho advice would bave been about
as pertinent in the one case as the other, and
might have saved another proclamation. AS
we understand it, Governor Jenison's pecul ar
duties are to see that the laws of this Stat
are faithfully executed; and we are not
aware that the Legislature of this state has
ever acted on the subject in question 1t is
to be presumed that the President will see the
laws Of Congress duly enforced, and very
possibly he may, as he is authorized to do,
make the Governor the agent. Then, and
not till then, will it be his duty to act

acts, that may subject them to penal

lment.
Our first duty is TO our own govern
Int; and the greatest benefit we can
bnler on the world is by giving them a
3rlect example in the action of that
government. With other nations our
conduct should be regulated by the
principles of an enlarged and enlight-
cncd philanthropy. In war we may
treat them as enemies ; but in peace
they arc to be regarded as friends. In
the present posture of affairs our duty is
-that of strict neutrality
neither lending such aid TO either as
would be inconsistent with that charac-
ter, nor denying the rights of hospitality
to either, so long as they are within our
borders, and maintain the character Of
quiet and pcaccablc citizens.
My fellow citizens will appreciate the
feelings by which | am actuated.-
The nations honour cannot be conidct

zeal in the cause of liberty was never

Mckenzie and his murderous and lawess

need only further add. that this movcmcn,
maze by Mckenzie, in the present situation OF
the Province, is considered, by all parties. as
a mad attempt. and that Mckenzie must have
been, TO certain extent, dcranged, OF with
his acknowledged shrcwtness he could not but

sT1TE OF VERMONT.
A PROCL A NJ 4 III . n
BY THE GOVERNOR

1t is known to my fellow citizens that|
disturbances have broken out in thei
neighboring province Of LOWER CANA!
DA, which have resulted in boodshed,|
The head of the Provincial Government
has issued his proclamation declaring!
martial law in the district OF Montrcal'
This state Of things necessarily chan-i
qes the relations which have heretofore.
existed between the inhabitants Of this
State and that Province, and the pos.
sibillty that any, through the influence
Of ardent feelings, may be betrayed into
acts of unauthorized interference indu-
ces me to call the attention Of my fellow
citizens to the subject.
With the kingdom of Great Britain we
are in state of profound peace. We
have treaties with that government
which it is our duty, and | trust our
desire, to fulfil to the letter.
1t is obvious that as nation we have
no right to intelmcddlc with the con-
stitution of any ncighboring power
While as republicans we prefer that
form of government under which it Is
our happiness to live, decent regard
for the opinion Of others, will prevent al
dctation as to the form of their GOV.
eminent.
Principles which have been admitted
for ages, forbid all national interference
unless in the character Of allies, and i
is scarcely necessary to add that indi
viduals should not do that which tho
government cannOt-muSt not do.
1t has been represented to me that il
some few instances arms have been fur
nished, and hostile forces organized
within this state. No one can b'
ignorant ofthe consequences Of such
state of things if allowed. Such force
may be repealed, and our territory b'
made the theatre Of active Warfare
This is not to be tolerated for moment
and every good citizen will appreciate
the Importance ofrebuking all such act
as may tend to produce it.
That comfy which binds nations t
each other condemns all interference j
their intestine broils, and the laws c
Congress are explicit in their denunca
ton, subjccting those who improper
interfere to heavy penalties and lmprl'
Onment.
Under these circumstances and wit
these feelings, have thought it m
duty to issue THIS MY PRocLAMArio'

UPPER CASADA.-lhe following news from
Toronto seems to be conclusive TO the revou.
,onarv movement in Upper Canada. 1t is from
the Buffalo Commercial Advertiser OF Saturday.
and was furnished to the Editor Of that paper by a
Angus MLeod, Esq who left Toronto ON Friday
morning, the Sh. The account i~.giyen AT length,
but we have room only for the following paragraphs.
accompanies ofmcn from Oakvillc Whitby
SCARBOROUGH, and other ncjghboriug towns,
were continually arriving, and, ON Thursday
morning, upwards Of four thousand stands of
arms had been given out. The troops, in
tended to 20 in search oltho rebels, and
consisting of about 1900 men, having all
| marshallcd. and reviewed by the Governor,
were led out, about ten o'clock, by him in
person, up Noungo street, where, II was said,
the rebels, in force, were waiting for us, aud
with whom we came up, at about II o'clock,
at Montgomery tavern, their head quarters.
They there appeared TO be in considerable
numbers, amounting to between five and Sc
ven hundred men but from their i'll chosen
position it was soon evident they could not
make any eileclual resistance; and upon sew
cral shots being fired upon them from two
small brass field pieces, they left the house

in the woods on our left, the others retrcating
back and to our right.
Our first company, consisting Of old sol
diors, were Immediately sent TO dislodge the
enemy from the wood, which they did, in
gallant syle in about fifteen minutes, killing
about thirty, and wounding and taking pris'
oners proporionoble number, We fol-
lowed them about two mles--but Mckenzie
and the greater number of his party got of
by scattering and taking to the woods and
from our want of sufficient number Of cav
airy, it was thought useless to follow them,
they being completely, and for the poaco of
society, il is to be hoped, ollectuall y routed.
We were ordered back to the city, wAero we
arrived about five O'Clock, amidst The warm
congratulations and Joyful occlamaliol of the
population-who consider themselyAs now

CANADIAN AFFAiKs.-Nc understand that
dispositions were Yesterday made in this city, that
ag9nls ol the insurgents in Canada, were. openly
recruiting in Burlington and other places in Yer.
mont, aud sending INTO Canada men aud munitions
of war, for the use Of those in arms against the
Government. These dispositions we're forwarded
10 England. by Yesterdays Packet, and TO the
British Minister at Washington aud will doubtless
be the cause of an immediate demand upon our
Executive 10 put an END 10 such proceedings in
Iulure.-N. Y. Cour. and Eng.
We have only to say to the foregoing, that, so
far as the report concerns this town it is Essen-
italy false in every particular. There is no re,
cruitng rendezvous here nor have arms or mu'
nitons been forwarded from here, TO the best o
our knowledge and belief. Thus much for the
facts. And as 10 this affidavit maker, it may no
be amis to remark, that during his sojourn in ih.
place. our wass piled him with stories suited 10 hi
appe lite. After getting most gorousy mellow
the light before he left he was.,ery con6denlal
let into all the rebel secrets, which are no doub
faithfully detailed in the deposition alluded to.
