U great deal to do; but among the few‘ showcdus aconple motions pat-ad was one ordering the payment of Mr JIIHI‘S Bctbm's fee of $50 dollars for advice rendered nrcec sary by the Mil-ml board's applicati-m for the celebrated m Imllmm. Win th- t-r or not it was for the purpose of post- putting the payment of this claim that the were so persistently ubsented him- st-lf we do not know; but wt any rate he was opposed to the employment of Mr. Bethune, and when he learned what the council had done he went to the uni. deuce oi the clerk and treasurer, (who was about seeking his virtuous pillow.) asked for the minute bank, and at the foot of the page on which the evening’s proceedings were recorded he entered a protest ugain~t any money being paid on the order of the chairman, although it. is on record in the very same book that. be, (M r. Grecne,) when a member of a previous council. signed orders as chairman in the absence of the recve. which orders were duly honored by the treasurer. A more highdmnded pro- ceeding we have mrcly heard of, and if the acts of the representatives of the people are thus to be cru>lted beneath the iron heel of despotism. we shall sym- pathize tnore strongly than ever with the IIUSrllln Nihilists in their efforts to rid themselves of the tyrants by whom they are so grievousiy oppressed. Mr. Greene's pit-n will probably be that, as the meeting was not called by order of the reeve. in accordance with the mo tiou of adjournment on Monday week. it. was illcg’tl. and the proceedings null and void ; but, if this be so. it was, to say the least, exceedingly discourtcous to thwart the repeatedlyâ€"expressed wish- es of his colleagues. and no less dictato- rial tr. f.;rbid the clerk to let us have the minutes for publication. Councillor FiIZgrmld tells us tlhtt when, after the adjournment on the 25th ult.. they de~ cided to meet again on Thursday. the reevc said that perhaps he might, not be ublc to attend, but. that. they could ap- point a chairman and go ahead with what. there was to be done; and yet when, after three several ineffectual nt- tetupts to get him to preside. they ven- tttrc to appoint u substitute. as direct- ed by law. he undertakes to veto their proceedings on the strength ofu wretch- ed quihbic such 115 some men despise and others dtlight in. Therefore, ii there is not a lively time when next council meets we are worse judges of human nature than we think we are. Mdnthly School Raped.

Mtsxxromtcn â€"We are sorry to learn that the information on which we btsed our paragraph concerning the addition to the grist mill was incor- rect, as Mr. Smith's intention, for the present, is only to build the walls ol the addition to the requisite height and put on the roof. which will cost about 81.000, leaving the introduction of ma- cltinery to some future time. Vns'rttv Mommaâ€"At the postpon- ed vestry meeting held in St. Jnutvs's Church, Feuelon Falls, on Tuesday evening last. Mr. John Austin was re- elected churchvwnrdcn by the congrega- tion. and Mr. J. E. Jarvis was appoinb ed by the Rector. The accounts were gone into, and, after paying running expenses and Some old debts, a satisfac- tory balance of $14 was left. NAVIGATION.â€"Catoernn Lake has been entirely free front ice for several days past. and we suppose that the (o. bacon/c, which has undergone repairs and been made perfectly “ scztworthy." will soon be running her usual trips. The steamers on our southern waters are ahead of her this year, and one of the smallest of them was in Fenelnn River early this week; but we have not heard which one it was nor what. brought her here. FtsnING.â€"~'I‘lie village boys are hav- ing fine fun c.ttclting suckers, and are to be seen at all hours of the day rc- tttrning triumphantly home with a lot of the almost worthless victims dangling at: the end ofa string. Those who dos- pisc suckers are waiting impatiently for the 15th oi the month. when bass and “ lunge " fishing will commence; and it is to be hoped that they will prove more plentiful or less afraid of baits. than they were last season, which was one of the worst on recnrd. MILL ACCIDENT.â€"On Suturduy lust, Mr. James Henley, of Fcnelon, while engaged in “jtcking up " logs in Mr. Fall's saw mill in Vcrulam. accidentally slipped his left; foot. against the saw, which cut through the little too :tnd in- jured the foot. but only slightly. as the saw happened to be moving slowly. The too was so badly mangled that Dr. “'0- son thought it necessary to nmputnto it, on operation which was quickly per- formed. after which the foot. was dress. ed and bandaged, and the patient made as comfortable as was poseible under the circumstances. SCIIOOL BttARD Dilemmaâ€"A meet- ing of the school board wn< held on Wednesday evening lost. but. we have not yet received the minutes for publi- cation. The only motion of importance was one directing the chairman to ob tain the amount of the county grunt. 8200, front the village treasurer, and apply it on a note for S350ju~xt due and obtain it renewal for the balance; but we have since heard that Mr. Cameron has declined to iifift'l over the money until directed to do so by the county treasurer. and ifthis be true the trus- tees must. be in an unpleasant predica- ment, as the 90 cents in the lhtnds of their treasurer will go but, a very short way towards paying $350. WASTED.â€"-A number of papers have publirlted the following advertisement free of charge. and one of our Fenclon Falls subscribers has requested us to give it no insertion in the Gazette, a< he thinks a good many recruits for the “gaping corps” could be enlisted in this village :â€"-“ “Wantedâ€"About seven- ty-niuc young men, of all shapes and sizes, from the tall, graceful duudy with the baseball moustache (hiuc on a. side) down to the little itump-btcked, etrroty headed, wcuzel-eyed upstart.

Dtvrstox COURT.-â€"-A sittings of the 2nd Division Court was held in Scully's hull. Feucloo Falls, on Friday of last week, Judge Dunn presiding. The docket was the largest. for some years -â€"the suits to recover accounts being unusually numerousâ€"and occupied the court from 11:30 a. to. until half pan five in the evening. Perhaps the case of moot importance. as it involved the rights and privileges of those somewhat domineering gentry the lumbcrmcn, was that of McFadden u.

Marco -9, 1331. â€"D~:z\r Sinâ€"1 have not tint-.- to answer your letter at length. If you will read the little book to which I related in my letter on the speech of the member for Preston, you will learn much front itâ€"more than I can tell you in any let» ter I can write. We all regret tit-it France. the United States of America. and other countries continue to main- tuiu their high tariffs; it is, we believe. a misfortune to them and injurious to us; but we can only legislate for our country. and not for them. 11' you think that. not being able to sell freely, we should mend ourselves by giving up the power to buy freely. I must. leave you to that opinion, only exprt-Ssing my wonder at it. But you will perhaps say that. we can force other nations to rm duce their turiif~ if we impose a tariff against them. You forget. probably that we have tried this in pa-t times, and that it has wholly failed. Sir Rob- ert Peel taught this nearly 40 years ago, and he believed, us I believe, that the best defence we can have against the evils of foreign tariffs is to have no turifi' of our own. You speak of Francs. The French Senute is in favour of more protection. The Chamber of Deputies is dis;~.oscd to free trade and :1 more liberal policy. The free trade party in France is more powerful than in past times, and it. is not certain that. the pro- posed treaty will b: less favourable to trade between the two countries. As to America, how trill you compel it; Government to redUCc its tariff? By placing duties on American exports to England ? If so, on what exports '1’ On cotton for the mills of Lnncashirc. or on corn for the food of all our people? The American protective tiriff mztkcs it difficult. or impossible for Americans to become great exporters of manufac- turcs. If you fight them at the custom- houses, you can only nssuil them by du- ties on Cotton or on corn. and this sure- ly will not. benefit. Luncashirc or the West Riding. When the debt. of the United States is much reduced. when their revenue is in excess of their wants, then their tariff will be reformed ttud their import duties will be reduced. If Vou doubt what free trade has done for England, go back to your histories and read what was the condition of our workihgmcn and their families for the first 40 yvars’of this century, win-.u cv- crythiug was supposed to be protected, and compare it. with what it is now. For some yours past munutitcturcrs and formers have suffered greatly. nod work- men have sulfered much, but they have not. seen one tenth part of the distres~ which afflicted them during the forty ycnt‘sofhigh duties, from 1800 to 1840. The country suffiu's now. not from our purified tariff, and not wholly, nr in chief part, from foreign tnrilfs. It snf~ fers from want of sunshineâ€"from the short hut-vests of several years; and till we have again good harvests we must Slllfcrtllttl endure. Pal'liuiuzmt cannot give sun and heat for our fields. it will be no compensation to reimposc imp rt duties and to deny us the right to pur- chase freely what we need from lorcign nations.â€"I am, very respectfully yours, JonN Bttfonr.” . _-....~__.o...._...__..._._._ Amber Sumtr Cane. D TIIE EXPERIMENT OF ONE BARRIERâ€"A SUCCESSâ€"4118 RECOMMENDATIONS. To the Editor of the Britt's/t. ll’ht'g. Simâ€"For the information of the fur- tncrs in general, from whom I have re» ceived several letters as to the possibili- ty and profit of growing umber sugur cone in this part of the country, 1 may say that I plmtcd 43 Eq'lll'tt rods of cone seed on 25th of May, 1580. The soil waso light sandy loam. in rather poor condition. I planted in hili9u~ bout three feet apart. seven to eight seeds in a hill. and when thn stalks were about six inches high I put it handful of ashes upon molt hill after the first hocing. The c-mc grew very slow at first, but after it got fairly start- ed its progress was very fast. Some of it. reached a. height of froth 10 to 12 feet. The rtmottut oi seed required for an acre is about three to four pun ids. I also sowed some in drills for feeding to tniiclt cows. There is not as nptch bttik to the qcro M of western corn. but the cane produces A larger ft m of rich milk,an is better for fattening. It does not require so rich a soil or as much hociug as Indian corn. It grows so fa~t that it. is may to keep free of weeds. It will stand more frost and more drought than earn, The seed ripened well and came to maturity a- bout the first of October. The leaves were stripped off hr using a wooden word, about. two foot long. striking down through the hill. The leaves or scedi left on will give the syr- ttp a bitter ttste. After the leaves or.- taken nffthc cone is cut and put in bundlci of convenient .siz: for handling. the tops b -iug put togcth .-r so M to h.- cnnvcnicutly cut off with :t hay knife or all axc.

It' the farmers in the rear of this county, where the soil is light and well adapted for growing cane, would turn their at teutiou to it. they would make more. money. They can get the seed froth any ofthe seed stores in Kingston. I think the time is not, for distant when we will produce all the syrup and sugar we require in this country. 'I‘.

A telegram from Montevideo to Lon don. dated May 3rd, states that. the British war sloop Dotcrel was blown up on the 26th of April in the Straits of Magellan. The cause of the catastro- phe is unknown. The commander, pity- utustcr, engineer. cuulker, ourpeuter and seven seamen were saved. Tito Dolercl registered 1,137 tons, and had 900 horse power. One report says the Doterel carried a crew of 180, of whom it. is feared 100 Mare lost. Another says the crew uutnbercd 156, and only eleven of them were saved. .- In a Curious Fix.

There is a vague rumour of a pin foc- tory being started in Kingston. Vague as it. is, plus become an interesting top- ic. To the young lady whose intricate overskirt. is held in innumerable folds by minty plus. it may seem a hardship that her yearly allowance of pins is only about 140. Such, however, is the use with each individual, on an equitable division of the pins yearly sold in the United States and Canada. But. the Indians in tho North-West are not sup- posed to use the full allowance, and col- lar buttons have so far done away with the use of pins by gentlemen generally that the young lady may perhaps pro- vide herself with some one clsc's allow- ance. In the United States pins are made by fourteen factories. Their an- nqu production for several years put has been about. 7.000,000,000 of pins. This number has not varied much for some years. the demand remaining 1- bont the saute. A few of these 7,000- 000.000 are swallowed by children, ; number are bent up in schools nod pitte~ ed in vacant and inviting chairs. and some millions get. into cracks in floors, and the rest for the most. part are scat- tered uiong the byways and highways to work their way iu to the carth.â€"ll’lt€g. A Good Idea. The New York Times nsks:-â€"Rns not the tithe come for the Governments of England and the United States to take some action to diminish the risks of ocean navigation ? Every municipal government patrols its streets, and them is no good reason why the great ocean highway should not be patrolled also. Were England and the United States each to provide two stcumcrs, the route between New York and Liverpool could be thoroughly patrolled. These Govern- ment steamers could remove sunken wrecks, warn passenger steamers of the locality of icebergs, and afford relief to shipwrecked vessels. A steamer with her machinery broken would be towed free of charge by the patrol stcnmcr, and would not, its is too often the case, decline assistance in order to save front $30,000 to $40,000 of snlvngc. A ship- wrecked crcw compelled to tuke to their boats would have it reasonable degree of coufidcuca that in two or three days' titnc n patrol steamer would pick them up, and the owners of n missing stonin- or would have good reason to believe that were site in danger or distress help would not be for off. ~.- A Terrible Story of Suffering. In Goshcn township, Musctttinc, lown, one night recently, constable Stafford and livcpothcrs went. to the house of Daniel 's, n newly arrived Gcrnntn, to SL'flt‘Cll for stolen goods. Foss, who don't, understand English, was terrified and ran out in the snow barofootcd. chtd only in punts und drawers, and sturted across the prairie. The posse followed, tiring three shots. lie wuu chuscd u mile, when he reached the river, where he plunged itt nod swam across. llis pursucrs nbuntloned the chase. Two days afterwards Foss was found clinging to n fence, up to his knees in ice water, with both feet froz- en. He was terribly nittuglcd ttnd bruised by himrp brusltetuud ice. A wttrrunt has been sworn out against the officers for assault with intent to kill.
