naval engagement off st. Mare was between six

HYMN TO THEP EOPLE.
BY c. D. STUART.

Not to be blest with warrior strength,
To WELD the sword and wear the glaive,
Or rise to conqueror'S fame at length,
Proclaims the good or makes the brave
To have the power to bide the scorn,
And rise above the hate and strife
Of those to wealth and title born,
Is the crown'd courage of our life.
What are the swords that prop king
The banners in his army's van
To strength Of soul, that dares to spring
And show the monarch in the mani
Kings and the mightiest men OF arms,
Strong as the heads of realms they bde,
Sport as they may with fortunes charms,
They are like leaves upon the tide.
In dim Of old sepnlchres they lie,
The feast of silence and decay,
While the true world heart beateth high
And thrones itself upon to-day
Give me the man whose hands have tossed
The cornseed to the mellow soil,
Whose feet the forest depths have crossed,
Whosesbrow is nobly crown'd with toll

DEsrIrUrIoN IN CANADA WEsT.-The distress which
at present prevails in several of the townships OF
the county of Bruce is most appalling Gases Of the
most pitiable and heart-rending destitution are
every day coming to our knowledge; and the most
serious apprehensons are entertained regarding the
future. Bad as times have been, and fearfully bad
as they are, yet nevertheless it is evident that
they not at the worst and that there is crisis
rapidly rushing in upon that will stagger and
defy every effort to amehorate it, unless some i'm
mediate and decisive efforts are taken to meet the
coming storm. The horriblensss of our position is
daily revealing itself to in all its sadness In the
adjoining townships there are hundreds of families
verging on starvation; and God only knows where
the end will be, what is to become of them Many
of best and thritest farmers are destitute of the
wherewithal to carry them through till another
harvest-the crops of the past year having almost
proved total failure.
We could enumerate instances where even al
ready families are subsisting on few boiled tur-
nips, others bread and water alone and the sup
ply so small that it cannot keep body and soul
hanging together many weeks longer. Some have
consumed everything in the shape of vegetation,
and last resort, have slaughtered their oxen
which form their whole subsistence.
1t is difficult to say what plan of operation would
be the best to follow out; but if are unsuccessful
in securing private governmental aid at home,
the writer of these lines knows right well that if an
appeal were made to his counrymen (Scotland)
they would not fail to extend the requisite relief to
save hundreds of their unfortunate Highland coun-
trymen from famishing in the wilds of Canada.
Bruce county is in the northwestern part of the
province Of Canada West and borders on the east
shore of Lake Huron. 1t has population of up
ward of 5000.
