proper 10 give an extract from the reply OF
Ihe Hon. J. Elnsley, to Henry Sherwood
Attorney General OF the Province, who
had been appointed Commissioner 10 take
the adidavits Of those witnesses upon
whom Nc Leod relied to prove an alb.
Mr. EimsIey says,
"That as the British Government has
denied the rieht Of the United States TO
try Mcleod at oil, and has demanded his
release, il becomes an absolute contradic-
ton Of Her Majesty'S Attorney General or
indeed for any other subject OF Her Maj
esty's ~ be aiding or assisting in his trial,
IN any character or capacity whatsoever"
Still growing hotter as he proceeds, he
winds mp his braggadocio as follows.
81 have therefore the honor 10 request
that you will be pleased respectfully 10 in
form the Government which you serve,
that the only way in which can consent
to aid in the reeaseof Mr. Mcleod is in
assisting 10 give SutH a NUMBERING rap al
the door OF the dungeon where he lies incar-
cerated. as will at once convince the repub-
licans that the demand for the liberation
Of British subject, unjustly detained in
prison, comes from the British nation, with
whom the protection Of the life or liberty
of single individual, however humble,
is a sacred charge, and that no consdera-
tions OF policy or expediency will be suffer
ed for one moment 10 protract compliance
with the peremptory demand for his imme-
diale enlargement

For the benefit of those Interested, we
deem i, proper 10 insert the following e.
dict, issued by the Government of Peru,
designed to take effect from the first OF
February, 1S4l.
"All vessels, whether national or foreign,
coming from foreign country, are abso-
lutely prohibited from touching at any OF
the minor ports or coves OF the Republic,
under pain of fine Of one thousand dol
lars, payable by the captain in favor of the
informants; for which the vessel is liable,
whether belonging to the capiaia or to
Others. II, moreover, it be proved that any
person, goods, or letters have been landed
from the vessel at any port at which she
may have thus touched contrary to the
law, the vessel shall be confscated, and
the captain will, in addition, become liable
to criminal prosecution

MADAWASKA

We understand that the British have
assessed money tax upon the citizens
OF the American town Of Madawaska
which they will soon proceed TO collect.
II the Yankees there refuse TO pay this tax
TO foreign government, they will proba-
ly be forced into British Jail as usu al
when they are refractory and "rebeItious, %
Shall they not be protected?
Although the Frenchmen have hereto
fore paid small road tax, we believe this
is the first money tax the British have i'm
posd on these people. Be this as it may, it
seems to US that The duty of this State to
project IFS citizens is unmistakeable. If the
British undertake to distrain property or
arrest the citizens they should be promptly
aud efectuay resisted Bangor Dem.

through another general election-sueh as
the last one-signaIized as it was, bv more
riots, bloodshed and murder than has ever

There are conflicting interests in Canada.

THE LATE ELECTION.

we copy The following very pertinent
remarks from the Canada Times
The Morning Courier Of yesterday con-
ians an article entitled F" Sketches of the
French Members" in the Provincial ParIia-
ment. The document is replete with the
detestabe tone OF diparagement which al
WAYS charaelerizes The columns Of that
journal when abiding 10 the French Cana
dians. The writer commences with a re-
mark relative To the victory gained over
the Canadians in the late eection,-a VIC
tory more disgraceful In the conquerors
than to the conquered. Now, let US ask,
was not the result obtained by the introduce
ton OF caercive measures! Was the man.
agement of the business conducted through
out in fair, and manly, and honorable
manners Ii seems 10 US that these qUes
tons can readily be- answered, and when
the replies Of the injured and oppressed
Canadians are heared, the blush oil shame
should tinge the cheeks of the Government
pariv, and their shouts al exullation
should be hushed. There are no less than
600 900 Canadians in this Province who
have suffered defeat in the late elections.
This defeat has been accomplished by direct
dislranchis emeni; BY the Introduction of
Glenearian corps, Dorie Clubs, Sc. SC. &c.
by threats and intimidation from the min
ions Of Government. The Canadians then,
cannot but feel that their rights have been
wantony trampled under foot, and their
feelings wounded ia the most tender point
We may say with LaTd Durhsm,-"it is
mt in North America, that men can be
cheated hy an unreal semblance OF repre-
sentative government, or be persuaded
that they are outvoied. when, IN fact, they
are dis.fanchised.
