General Items,

Letters received IN town from the south shore below
Kamouraska, give sad view of the effects of the
lateness of the season and the insufficency or i'm
providence regarding fodder for the cattle. Many
horned cattle and horses have actually died for want
OF food In some instances, the inhabitants to keep
them alive, have deprived themselves of their own food
and seed for the ensuing crop Indeed we are assur-
ed that unless the fisheries should prove abundant,
there will be something like famine in that plrt of the
country. The making of maple sugar has generally
failed this season.--Quebec Gazette 10th.
