LEGATION of that well conducted and spirited
little sheet has been discontinued, or at
least suspended for the time being.
The shipping report of the Gazette,
shows a great falling off in the arrivals of
vessels at Victoria from San Francisco,
since our last advices from that quarter
The steamer Santa Cruz had arrived in
that harbor on the 10th, and cleared on
the l7th inst. A few sailing vessels had
arrived from, and others had cleared for
San Francisco and elsewhere. The local
shipping appears to be more lively.
Frazer river is falling very rapidly, and
it now seems settled that the receding Of
the waters will be permanent The Lii
loOet- Harrison Road-Cutting Expedition
are getting along swimmingly, aud the Ga
sette says that in very short time, prac-
ticable route to the Upper Frazer will be
open. The Gazettc thinks that the fall Of
the river the opening of trails along its
banks, and the completion Of the Lillooet-
Harrison road, will very soon drain the
Lower Frazer of large proportion of its
population and that but a short time will
now elapse before Victoria will be in the
receipt of large amounts of dust from
above.

Sir:-Your paper Of tue Sd inst reach
ed me yesterday in the afternoon, when in
bed very sick and to-day, though not bet
ter, Icannot omit to send you this in reply to
Mr.. Devore, however unworthy his commu-
nication may appear to sound men.
That masterpiece, worth Mr.. Devore's
eloquence and renown, composed under the
influence Of so many ghosts of every color
and shape, and delivered to the public after
three or four weeks profound meditation l
put to the test and what comes outI Some
eighteen Mrs, so many RS, some eleven Sirs,
some thirteen ?, some hundreds =; y
many unintelligible phrases, the most despi-
cable hattery for men of his own stamp
whom he dares call the American people u!
the most hypoeritical characterization,
the most ridiculous ostentation Of self-par-
tvs exploits, the most striking alteration
from common logic, a canonization of most
holy man-made not by the Pope Of Rome,
but by that of Olympia-Beatissmo Papa,
J. F. D.-a delivering me up to the (supply
kis) public-perhaps to be cruci6ed-and,
in a word, the most evident proof Of what
ever wrote in my former letter, thus re-
lieving me from the irksome task Of answer
ing so much nonsense and trihings. So that
it is especially to that standard speech we
may apply these words-"voice, voice, and
besides that, nothing"
His "not wishing any further contro-
versy with me on any subject remark, on
any sa61et-is admirable, and deserving all
my gratitude as further medium in my be-
half-thus evidently showing either his weak
ness or bad faith, or perhaps both. Certain
ly, indeed it was not my wish to have any
controversy with Mr. D., especially about
personalities, which are becoming but mean
mind it was he who the first attacked me,
and had the right of selfdefense. Now it is
known that it is, at least, difficult to defend
ones self without striking or even killing the
adversary. Such exactly is the case with
Mr.. D. He was struck sensibly-mOrtally
he is not killed, but is near dying In ago
ny as he is, he utters his last words, declar-
