z Canada Agmirl.t

rs -
pom q deliberate view Of, the exist
ing affairs in Canada, we have discover
led new objects and new interests,
The singular operations Of a loyal poo %
pie lighting against tho government Of
their choice and affection, in fact, ma
king war on their own family have
more NOR than the given object. The great
feature of the outbreak is The war Of
castes: English against French, Protes.
tant against Catholic, and the signing
OF the Naturalization bill by tho Gov
ernor, who instead Of taking sides
with the English party, attempted to
conciliate the French, regarding their
opposition as more serious than that Of
his own nation, is the pretext for these
revolutionary proceedings. A war and
a civil war of races, of language, and
OF religion is generally fierce one.
The royalsts declare that they will be
English in language, laws and religion;
that toleraticn is one thing, but princi-
pie is another; that the moment Canada
was conquered it became an English
colony, but, to conciliate the Canadians
it has been continued French since
l765; that laws are passed in the
French languages that the debate in
Parliament are in French that Judges
and Ministers of the crown are French;
that the Canadians can speak English,
but will not, and their bishops, curates,
monks and friars unto to compel the
English to maintain the French ascend
ancy, and so, the war is one of Nation
ality, one against the French and not
the Government. AS yet there has
been no very serious fighting between
the troops and the people norris it likely
that there will be any. If Lord Elgin
be recalled, it may soothe the English
party, and should a successor be ap-
pointed he ought to be an energetic,
conservative man. Neither side express
any desire for annexation, with our
Federal government; the French have
nowish FOR it, and the English no desire,
but, if the British Government in this
outbreak shall take sides with the
French party, the English party will
declare in favor Of annexation and all
upper Canada will join. No immedi.
ate steps will be taken until hearing
from the parent government, excepting
personal, quarrels breaking windows,
and breaking heads; but the seeds Of
disunion have been planted and We
shall see how the tree will grow.

FIRST IMPRESSIONS

1t you want to gain any mans good opinion,
take particular care how you behave tho first
time you are in company with him. The
light you first appear in to one who is neither
inclined to think well or i'll of you, will
strongly prejudice him either for or against
you.
WORD TO THE WISE
Don't touch the lutte when drums are re.
sounding. A wise man remains silent while
fools are speaking.
Sophistry is like window-curtain it
pleases as ON ornament, but lis true use is
to keep out the light.
Every thing great is not always good, but
;all good things are great. Except good small
potatoes.
So, so!--If a man reap whatsoever he
,s'o'oeth," and it seams fair that he should,
what harvest of coats and breecLes the
Ataflors willhaye one of these days!
DIX woMAN's SMILE.
There ia star that brightly CLEANS,
Calm in the sky above,
a And throws Ger life it's golden beams
OF happiness and love:
beacon.pure, whose radiance bright
No lowering cloud confines;
Butin afflictieH's stormy night
With heavenly lustre shines.
There is a star, whose magic power
i. So firmly binds the soul,
That cen in joys most sunny hour
Man feels its sweet control:
"A glorious light, whose mystic spell
Life, hope and JOY imparts-
And calms the wild tempestuous swell
OF earth's despairing hearts.
The star that from its glttering sheen
Gilds life'a declining slope,
And throws Ger ryouth' resplendant scene
/; The rosy tints of hope.
The star that drives the clouds away,
Though dark they frown awhile;
And ever shines with peerless ray
Is woman's angel smile.
WHATEVER turns the soul inward on itself,
tends to concentre it forces, and to fit it for
greater and stronger flights of science
Burke
The DAY, which makes man slave, takes
away half his worth; and he loses every in
centive to action, but the base one of fear.
EVERY single observation that is published
by man Of genius, lie it ever 80 trivial,
should be esteemed of Importance, because
he speaks from his own Impressions; whereas
common men publish common things which
ihoy have CLEANED from others.

- s.s FIRST LOVE
What is first loye7 'Tis shadowy thing
That hallows our early youth;
E'et eBildish thoughts have taken wing,
Or theheart has lost lis truth.
IT'S wild, ,xbright dream, that quickly fies,
Like q cloud In summer hour;
Like a sunbeam bright in wiutery skies,
Or the dew on an opening flower.
Il passes away, and scnrce leaves trace,
In the heart that hath felt its opell.
Other thoughts, other hopes, usurp the place,
Where il ulone did dwell.

But never again, in our after years,
May we love with love as true,
As bright with hope, and us free from tears;
As the love that we earliest knew. N.
A Knave may gain more than an honest
man for day, but an honest man will gain
the most in year.

at .decrepid old age, or to ridicule any one
who is deformed in his person or lacketh un.

There are three enquiries, the right appli-
cation ofwhch constitutes the whole duty Of
men: From whence came l!-What is my
business here-Whither do I tend!
~ He who swears, informs US his bare words
is not to be credited.
Use not evasions when called upon to do
a good action, nor excuses when you are re-
preached for doing bad one.
Catch not too soon at an offence, nor give
too easy way to anger. The one shows
weak judgment; the other, perverse nature.

What is life! A mass of trouble
What is Joy IA passing CLEAN
(. What is pleasure? but bubble
What is happiness but dream!
What is truth staff reflected
Duty an unwelcome clog;
Peace 7 dazzling moon reflected
In swamp or watery bog.

Hncendiary Publications.

Hncendiary Publications.
SelEdefence is the first law of nature.
If abolition agents make their appear
ance in the South, with treasonable and
incendiary objects, we have laws which
will be strictly enforced against them,
and there is no power which can avert
the consequences of guilt. Why shall
we not deal out equal justice with incen.
diary publications? Why should mails
be allowed to convey them to the South?
Why should people living in the South
aud protected by Southern laws be per-
mitted to receive and circulate such
publications The National CD Ant;-
Slavery Standard attempts 80 force a
circulation Of its filthy sheet in every
part of the South, and has insultcd US
and numerous other Carolinian journals
by asking an exchange. Now this is
not question Of free.soil or free terri
tory in California it is an incendiary
sheet sent into the South, to urge and
advocate immediate emancipation
Pamphlets of q similar character, al
tho striving to maintain a Southern
authorship, sent by Northern abolition
agents, in various guises, are flooding
the South, and we contend that every
southern Postmaster would be justified
in throwing them all out of the mails.
No act of the United States Govern
ment, which endangers the safety of q
State, can be carried into effect in that
State. Every citizen Of State, is,
er-cfcio, magistrate, and bound to
protect the safety of the State and peo-
pie, whenever, or wherever, it may be
threatened. The power given to the
United States to control and regulate
the mails, q mere convenient power for
facility, safety and expedition, probably
revenue, confers no right to transmit
publications, which may endanger the
safety of the State and probably, the
whole Union. That one member Of
the Southern Press, who, would ex-
change with the Anti-Slavery Standard,
gives that paper by SO doing, direct
invitation to pursue and carry out its
object. A difference of political opin-
ions, should be always tolerated and
treated literally; but here is an incen.
diary attempt which involves no politi-
cal questions, at all, and is intended as
a blow against the South and southern
institutions. If we permit it to fall
upon US, without an uplifted arm to
prevent it, the fault will be our own! !!
The State at large now awaits the de.
liberations Of the Committee of Safety,
at present holding its Convention at
Columbia.

MUEDER.-Last night, just about dark, as
May buchanan, Esq, was on his way home
from Wadesborough, and within about n
quarter of mile OF his own house, he was
attacked, and beat to death with stake; the
road having previously been stopped with a
pile OF brush, for the purpose Of impeding his
horse. His family heard cry, and immedi-
! ately after his horse ran home, with part of
| his sulky, the remainder having been lodged
against tree His family and overseer ran
to the spot and found him just alive: but it is
thought he never breathed. Beside him, and
partly covered with blood, :hey found stake,
about eight feet long, such as are used in
running fences. Notraces could be found of
the villain or villains who perpetrnted the aw.
ful deed. The deceased was an old and cx-
