LAST MAN or rHE TEA PARrY.--Died at Wads-
borough, W., ON the 4lh ut, MI. Samuel Hammond,
in the Gath year Of his age. He native Of New
ton IN this State and the father Of respected TEL
low citizen, Nathaniel Hammond, Esq He was an
INDUS nous farmer ardent patriot, and sedae
Chrstrian. The incidents of his life, like those OF
his country, during his earlier days, remarkable.
Az the age of twenty five year, and the neinoIa-
bic day when the popular determination 10 resist the
oppressive laws OF England manifested in the de-
srnclion OF The tea at Boston, he happened to be in
town with loaded team On hearing the call
Boston harbor teapot this night Whe left his Il am
at The nearest tavern, equipped himself in the Mohawk
garb and joined the party. On returning home he
was not very communicative as TO what detained him
in Boston; but the mystery solved by the
appearance of small quantity of tea that had ac-
cidentally lodged in his shoes.
The year before the Declaration OF Independence
Mr.. Hammond, with his wife and one chi d, removed
to Otter Creek in New York, and began set
Element. The Indians however, soon became hos
tile, aud he finally dlsoged and driven back, un-
der circumstances of peculiar hardship. He had oc
casion to come to Newton business leaving his
wife and child in his block house when large body
of Indians from Canada approached the settlement.
The unprotected wife perceived that her only hope OF
escape was in flight. Unwilling that her household
utensils should fall into the hands of the enemy, she
sunk her eathen ware in the creek, and buried her
iron ware in the earth. She then yJked her oxen,
bound her feather bed upon the yoke placed her little
boy, together with block-iin teapot upon her
shoulders, and took up her march for Newton After
preceding about fifty miles she met with her aston
shed husband on his return. AT the nearest settle
ment the oxen were exchanged for a horse, upon
which the featherbed the wife and the boy placed
and the whole party thus returned TO Newton
Soon after the close Of the war, Mr.. Hammond made
second attempt to effect new settlement, at
Marlborough in Vermont; and here he was
successful. He found the place forest and he has
leitit a beautiful farming town. He has lived to a
good old age, and has left reputation Of which his
descendants may be justly proud. E.

CANADIAN PoLITIcS.-Recent discussions in
the Canadian Provincial Parliament show that the
feelings which provoked the rebellion of 1888 are
vet alive; and the action of the Executive evinces
the present strength OF the discontinued faction.
The French party of the Eastern section, united
with the Reformers of the West, were early seen
to have control of the Assembly; and the intro
duction by Mr.. BALDWIN, Reformer of ability
and great popularity, of Resolutions declaring q
lack of confidence in the Executive Council, proved
that contest between the two leading Parties must
occur, in which there was every reason to believe
the Liberals would prove victorious The result of
this demonstration was the opening of the Council
to the Opposition. Sir Charles Bagot addressed
letter to Mr.. Lufontane-a prominent member
Of the French party, for whose arrest q reward of
$500 was offered after the Rebellion-announcing
his intention Of inviting to the cooperation of his
Government the French population, and offering
seats in his Cabinet to several gentlemen of the
Liberal Party whom he named. A new Council
was thus finally formed, and Mr.. Lafontaine be-
came Attorney General for Lower and Mr.. Bald
win for Upper Canada-both holding seats in the
Council Mr.. Grouard, prominent French
leader at the bloody affair of ST. Eustache, is also
to have Office with seat in the Cabinet, and Mr..
Draper late Attorney General for Canada West is
to be Speaker of the Legislative Council. These
movements and concessions the part of Sir
Charles have excited the warmest dissatisfaction
of the British Party. Their papers cry out that
the Government is in the hands of the French
Canadians, who are avowedly hostile to provincial
connection with Great Britain, and that sepa-
ton from the Mother Country must sooner or
later be the result. 1t seems to US that thi. at
tempt to concliate the feelings of all sections Of
the Province, and to allow the wants and wishes
of all parts to be fairly represented, if fairly and
judciously carried into effect. mus; be productive
