CANApA.--The Toronto Patriot of the 30th ult.
says " On Tuesday last Hon. Mr. Hincks moved
the third reading of the Main Trunk Railway bill,
by which the sum of sixteen millions Of dollars has
been voted to assist Lower Canada in making a
railroad between Quebec and New Brunswick.
MIR, Cayley moved rider, to the effect that Can
ada do not become party TO the proposed under
taking, unless the imperial guarantee should be
obtained for the contpuation of the road westward
from Montreal, in the same proportion that New
Brunswick received il for the road TO Maine; the
effect Of this rider would have been, if carried, 10
place us in as good a position as the lower prov.
incc, instead of now, the benefit being to it, and
the cqst 10 us. Mr.. Cayley's amendment was sup
ported by ips whole body of the Conservative
members present; but With Oxford over the Left
shoulder, and Quebec over the right, the Hon.
Francis Hincks carried the third reading of this
bill.
The present debt of Canada will have thus been
increased from about four and q half millions "a
eight and half miions of money or thirty four
millions Of dollars.

TO THE PUBLIC.

II H. T. WERNER has advertised six centsre-
C ward for the apprehension of two apprentices,
one of whom, AUGUsr CARL, is my stepson. Said
apprentice absconded from his said master in con-
to negro slave. His frequent beating him, and
his pulling locks of hair from his head few days
since, was the cause of his absconding. He bore
with his i'll treatment as long he able, when
he believed the only way to get rid of his tyranny
was by abscondiug, which he put in execution.
The public can judge whether he should have any
longer submitted to such treatment

From THE UNITED STATES SQUADRON IN THE
East IspIEs.-The Brooklyn Eagle publshes let
ter dated Canton, June 2lst, from which we make
the following extract:
The United States sloop-of- war Marion, while on
her return from Shanghae, bound to Macao. ran
ashore on the northwest part of the Island of For
mosn. The accident occurred at a M, at which
time il was very dark. AS soon as it became day
light The ship discovered to be on shore, close
to a sand beach, within four hundred yards. About
o'clock in the morning there were full three thou
sand savages on the beach. They brought down
their wagons, drawn by mules, all ready to carry
off the plumber, thinking the case was hopeless.
The work Immediately commenced to Tighten the
ship. Twelve tons OF water started, seven
hundred and fifty thirty-two pound shots were
thrown overheard; at the time Hedges got out,
stream anchor, and finally the lower anchor; and.
after deal of anxiety and hard work, the ship
gradually slid off into deep water, and the old black
box, hear the sailors call her, was herself
again.
She went ashore at a. m, and got off at a. M,
being six hours shore. Four days after the Ma
rion shore, the English man-of. war steamer
Reynard, Captain Cracroft, went on shore on Pro-
tas shoal, (China sea,) one hundred and sixty miles
from Macao, and was lost.

The Surrendered slayo John Roydinp

The annexed card from United States Marshal
Talmadge states the terms which Bolding' s
freedom can be purchased, viz, s l,500, and $500
additional to cover the claimants costs in getting
possession OF his property. The price seems to us
large-too large; and we supposed it would dscour-
ago the friends of Bodlng from attempting his
purchase. But we were mistaken. On the :
trary, they have gone to work in earnest especial
ly at Poughkeepsie, where Bolding lived, which is
good sign. In that village there had been sub
scribed, down to day before yesterday, 1914, and
about 400 has been subscribed here leaving about
5000 still to be raised in order to complete the
amount. We understand that the has
limited his offer to the 9Th instant Ito morrow,
after which, if not accepted, it is liable TO be
Withdrawn. Bolding has a wife in Poughkeep-
sia, nearly white, who is said to be a pious.
good woman. The fact that he is thus connect
ed renders it very undesirable that he should
remain in slavery, and will induce many to give
who otherwise would not If any persons find it
most convenient to leave their donations at this of.
fee, instead of sending them to Mr. Talmadge, we
will take charge of them, and see that they reach
him tomorrow. The motive of the owner in re-
quiring that John should go TO South Carolina be-
fore receiving his freedom, even if the required
amount should be raised, ia supposed to have been
this viz, to ascertain whether the Fugitive Slave
law could be enforced in New York, and whether
any resistance to the surrender would be at
tempted Doubtless there are many individuals
in South Carolina who hoped that resistance would
be made, or In some other way the surrender
evaded or prevented, as it would have given them
fresh material for agitation, which latterly has
been rather scarce among them.
TIE FUGITIVE SLAVE CAsE.-The United States
marshal, MIR. Talmadge, has issued the following
certificate
"ln relation to the slave, John Bolding, would
state he has been sent to South Carolina under the
decision of the Commissioner He has gone under
the charge of my son as deputy. When $4,000 is
paid TO me am to hold the same, telegraph to
South Carolina, and his master is to have him
turned under the charge of the same deputy; and
on his being delivered safe in this city, and his
master executing the papers satisfactorily to the
counsel for the slave am to pay the money over.
If these conditions are not complied with the mo-
ney is to be returned to those who contributed it.,

clamation.
