the House of Assembly had constantly
thrown all the impeJfments possible in
The way OF such Jishonest intention.
Aboui The year 1929, the Superior Of the
Seminary, together with iurncoat Meth
dist priest, who had forsaken his former
religious creed, and joined the Catholics;
CROSSED The Atlantic 10 England for The
porpose Of bartering away the peoples
property. Bot they were again unmasked,
10 their neiarioas project and the old
Superior, whose name was Rock, when b..
returned from England. fell into state Of
complete idiotcy, and the Rererend Father
Richards was kept in the dark. As soon
as the old Superior was dead, his late Office
was filed BY MIR. QuibIier, man little
known IN the country, aud on account Of
Which many Just suspicious of moral hon.
esty have existed. This man Immediately
entered into fresh negotiations with the
English Government, respecting tie sale
oi the properties which bad been put toto
his hands in trust, for the purpose Of edu-
eating the Canadian children.
In 1856 the Royal Commission, at the
head OF which was the treacherous Lord
Gosiord took up The subject anew, and the
pious, disinteres'ed priests opened their
ears TO The Infamous proposal OF robbing
the people of their property. But again
the House Of Assembly was the only bar
rier which prevented these negotiations be-
ing completed. Very soon however the
HOUSE OF Assembly was annihiIaicd, & the
Z" Star Chamber" Immediately proposed
the ordinance To which we have referred
above for selling and barting this Segnioriai
property. Now we are entirely in favor
Of The immediate and total abolition of the
seignioral tenure. But the peoples rights |
ouehtto be made secure. II those rights /
are 10 be sold, let the proceeds return To
The people TO whom they rightly belong
and not to The Priests, who when thew
shall have the money, will leave the c0un- |
try with it as they have already threatened
TO do.
How can the people Of Canada be cdu-
Gated when the Priests and English gov |
eminent join together 10 take away from
them the means Of education. Can the |
Priests of Montreal say that they do con-
scientious'y spend money in proportion To
their income for the diffusion of general
education. Can they call their efforts
great because they have some few low ele-
menlary schools through the City and Is
land Of Montreal, where children can only |
learn at the utmost how 10 spell few
words and how 10 recite few pages Of the /
catechisD. We do not say word Of the
Montreal College because there education I
is not gratis. Every scholar must pay
for his board and tuition. Very few in
deed have had the benefit of liberal edu- |
cation without paying well for it. But
the time will shortly come, we hope, when /
these uniaithiul TRUSTEES of the public pro-
periy shall have to leave the Province, and
may if be Gods will that it be before they
shall have time TO accomplish their dark
design.

1 r.
Shaw-ben-eh. Po,tawstomie Chief, who
vas OF the battle Of tbs Thames. lately
gave at The u. s. Hotel in Ibis city thro'
an interpreter q full account Of the death
OF Tecumseh. Tecumseh was q very
brave. but cautious man. lie had how
ever been wounded in the neck and be.
came desperate. lie thought his wound
was mortal, and told his warriors. that a.
he must die. there could be no risk in
rushing forward to kill Col. Johnson
He did so. and Shaw-ben-eh saw him
when be fell. His object was 10 strike
The Colonel with his Tomshawk before
he Jaw him. and 4 moment more Of mat
ten'ion and the Colonsrs head would
have been sundered. He was sho, Jus,
as his arm had reached the full height to
strike tho fatal blow. lie described the
Coionefs horse very infinitely. He was
very large and white, with occasion ally A
Jet black spot. Another Indian in com
pany. whom Shaw. ben. eh said was 5ut n
ooy at the time Of the battle, interrupted
hun TO say that his name and tail were
black. The next day he, with many
others and this boy. went upon the field
Of battle and saw Tscumseh's body there.
and v the eide Of II another Indian whose
skin had been taken off. Hesaid he had
heard Of this skin having been exhibited
as tina, OF Tscumseh. They might think
40 Bat II Mas not. TecGmseh's body
bad not been touched. Here some one
asked where and how they buried him.
This aroused the chief from his seat, and
he Was eloquent in the extreme. None
but brave warriors die on the battle field.

when dead. They want he prairie-,hs
