Several men were employed last fall
in putting up the steam apparatus.
They boarded at the Asylum.
Let them be examined as to the rea-
sons that induced them to quit board
ing at the Asylum and go to. the Bail
ey House instead.
The above are merely few hints to
give the committee an idea OF the
sort of work before them. And L
would earnestly suggest that the pro-
ceedings of the committee be given to
the public from day to day. For this
purpose reporters should be present at
all its sittings.
And now allow me to address a few
words to those individuals who have
taken offence at my former communica-
ito ms.
They may rest assured that their
threats of vengeance are entirely harm
less.
Those who have taken advantage of a
state of war to pillage their neighbours
those who have wound up career OF
folly and extravaganza by wholesale
swindling of their reditors,-those who
make the christian pulpit an lnstru
ment for propagating SANDER are not
the sort of people to cause me much un-
easiness. :,
Unfortunately for our poor degraded
and enslaved country these are the char
acteristics of the party whose princi-
pies are aptly illustrated in the doings
in the Asylum. But their career is
nearly over, and if my poor life or liber-
! tv can hasten the time when this coun-
try shall be free from the thralldom of
ruifianism 1 am ready for the sacrifice.

Revenue Decision

WASHINGTON, March 3.-The fol-
lowing is synopsis of decision
made by the Treasury Department.:
That vessel trading on the northern
and north western frontier of the Uni
ted States, not actually compelled by
stress of weather, in the regular course
of her voyage, to be repaired in order to
secure the safety of the vessel to enable
her TO reach her port sf destination,
shall be required to pay an ad valorem
duty of 80 per cent. on all repairs so
made, and that vessel which, after
encountering gale, is enabled 10 nav
igate the entire length of Lake Erie
from the port of Detroit, where the nee
essary repairs could have been made, a
lib procured at the Welland Canal
should enable it to make the shorter
voyage from the Welland Canal to OS-
wego and was therefore liable as above
for a jib purchased at st. Catharine,
Canada West.
