If so we shall be ‘ld o the share we have had in bringing about a result #o satisfactory. At the meeting yesterday a committee was appoibted to draft a memorial to the Government and Legislature of the Dominion, setting forth the desirability of an early construction of the Ottawa and Georgian Bay Canal. ; This is a project of vast importance, but at present its prospect®, though good, are “y-’blhunmty,udthpobthilny is that the numbers will fall little it anything short of these figures on the present occaâ€" sion.

With this expectation abroad there was nothing surprising in the extent of the competition. But after it had been was to be managed. A few epeculative gentlemen, not hitherto much known to fame im the world of great contractors may have tendered for experimental purposes to test the extent of the competition, and to have an opportunity of being in position in case of anything valuable turning up. This was very far from surprising. ~It had been . industriously circulated by . a portion portion ‘of the â€"press; and, no doubt, beleved by a portion of the public, that the Privy Council had instituted the Commission merely as a sort of " bufler" everybody wanted to see how the businees 1MWERE is every appearance of an almost equally keen competition for the three sections dlhlwuhu'm-plot’o.- tract as for the first four sections let.

McGillivray thought that such on im portant paper demanded more considetation than could be bestowed on it on the moment, and he thought it should be referred back to the council for further consideration at the next meeting. _ The president expressed himself highly favourable to the report, The resolution was then put and carried, several membe;gs expresâ€" sing a hope that it would be printed. Mr. W. W. Pennock thought this docuâ€" ment was brough: out at a singulacly opporâ€" tune period, and expressed a hbope that it would be published in pamphlet form. He seconded the resolution otf Mr. Cunnoingham. The secretary read a voluminous report on emigration, shewing the necessity for opening up the British North Ameritan possessions, zfl insisting that it was the duty of the Home vernment to aid in this work. Mr. C. K. Cuncsingham spoke in high terms of the report, and observed that the secretary, Mr. Perry, was entitled to the thanks of the Board for the trouble he bad taken in collectâ€" ing the facts and putting them into their present admirable shape. Emigration was the great feature in the present age, as it bad been in the previous one. He moved that it be referred back tothe comncil, to base on it a ‘ memorial to Parliament. ( The Board of Trade held its regular monthly mecting yesterday afternoon at 4 o‘clock, in the City Hall; Alexander Workman, Esq., president, in the chair. f ‘The minutes of last meeting were read and approwmnd. * s A. M. Cuiarr, of the Buffalo Ezpress, has retired from his connection with that paper having been appointed Congressional Printer at Washington. Cuanoss Aicer, alics Travis, has been arâ€" rested at Chatham, Ont., and charged with the murder of Patrick Rooney, in a saloon at Springfield, I1!., in 1863. Mr. Haxwos», and the appointment of Mr. McLar by the Macvomaroâ€"Sicorts Governâ€" ment in 1862 have been declared legal ; and Mr. Haxmox» consequently fails to recover the fees which he claimed of his successor. Tus loog pending case of the Bruce Regisâ€" trarship has been settled by the Court of Apâ€" peal, the judgment of the Court below being reversed. By this decision the dismissal of Tus New Orleans Crescent says : * The number of clerks outâ€"of employ in New Orleans now is very large, especially in the dry goods linn. Half a dozen were bired off the street the other day, to work as waitâ€"rs in one of our hotels, glad to get something to do to get their bread. Let the young men of the North understand at once that the South wants no more clerks or salesmen, but sturdy yeomen, men who can till the soil, bandle an axze, or build houses." s One bhundred acnd onenew members were * Of all the dishonest tricks of the Wilkinâ€" ites, the attempt to make the* country believe that reciprocity can be promoted by repeal, 18 the zost dishonest. No one of the Provinces will be permitted by the British Government to make terms of trade for herself with the States, separate for the other Provinces ; and if Nova Scotia was out of the Dominion toâ€" mortow, she could not obtain reciprocity of any kind with our neighbours, she would not be permitted even to open negociations for that purpose, except in connection with Canada, and through the medium of the British minister at Washington. ‘The people of P. E. Island attempted it last year, and got a sharp reprimand from Englaod for their pains. The official correspondence reâ€" lating to the Ben. Butler delegation which has been laid before the Island House of Asâ€" sembly, brings this fact promineatly before the public. ‘Those writers who pretend to advocate repeal for reciprocity‘a sake, may perhape have been writing heretofore in ignorâ€" ance ; but henceforth they cannot plead that excuse ; and if that line of argument is hereâ€" after continued, it must only be from love of lying. Repeal of the Union, if it were posâ€" sible, could not improve, but might serioualy injure, if not altogetber destroy, Nova Scotia‘s chance for renewed reciprocity." Tus Halifax Cuazen gives tase school of Sryues the following rap for its pretence that Nova Scotia could obtain reciprocity only by persisting in the repeal agitation : in its tavour, Our own view is decidedly that !the canal should be built and owned by the Government ; and so should the Bay Verte .Canal ; so should the bighway that is to be from this city to the Northwest Country, and thence to the Pacific Coast ; and so of many ’ubngreu conceptions for the progress of l the country, But as these things can only be umdertaken by degrees, an order of preâ€" cedence should be determined, irrespective of local interests, and then these works ! be prosecuted at & rate consistent with ability to provide the means without embarâ€" rassment. | judgment in favour of the project that would | warrant the Government in undertaking it. | Beyond an occasional word of evcourageâ€" * || ment from Quebec amt Montreal, and the I‘gi" sympathy of some intelligent men resiling in the counties bordering on L‘k' ® Huron, it must be coniessed that the feeling in the country, outside the Ottawa ~Valley, is one ofâ€"indifference if not bostility,. _ It = | should, therefore, be well understood what i* Ivantol. s Ps BOARD OF TRADEâ€" tituled " An Act for the enconragement of the Fisheries caried on from Great Britain, Ireland, and the British Dominions in Europe, and for securing the return of the fishermen, sailors, and others employed in the said fishâ€" eries to the ports thereof, at the en‘d of the fishing season." The great objects of this law were to make mm.zl. means of strengthâ€" ening the nary of the Kingdom, by a system of bounties to those engaged in it, to secure to fishermen their proper share in the voyage, The Hon. ‘T‘. Byron succeeded â€" Governor Palliser in 1768,. He again was succseded by Commodore Molineaux (afterwards Lord) Shuldham. Duriog their administration but little occurred of public interest affecting the affairs of the country. In 1775, an Act was passed by the British Parliament, inâ€" tituled " An Act for the encontragement af In connection with Governor Palliser‘s ad . ministration another fict should bs noticed, viz.: that the great navigator Uaptain Cook, who took part in the reâ€"capture of St. John‘s from tho French in 1762,was appointed to make a survey of the island, which occupied him until 1767, by which time he surveyed the whole coast of Newfoundland as well as the neighbouring shores of Labrador, and explored tholnht!or of the island in several, directions. 1 o4 °oo . C menesemeel f -l' and, as has well been said, by the establish. ment of a Custom House, and the introduction of the laws of navigation, another pillar was added to the Gorernment of Newfoundland," The history of the aborigines or original inhabitants of Newfoundland is involved in great obscurity. ‘The first official notice or recognition of them is in the form of a proclamâ€" ation in Governor â€"Palliser‘s administration, which was repeated on the occasion of each new governor ; the substance of which is that, as the savages had been treated with the greatest inhumaaity and destroyed without the least provocation or remorse, all officers and -nrt:n« were required to use their utmost diligence to discover all persons who were guilty of such offences, that they might be punislied. 1t was strictly enjoincd that all His Majesty‘s subjects should live in amity and brotherly kindness with the natives, In 1765, Governor Palliser was intormed that !upflydlk-ln Indians from Cape Breton and Nova Scotia had landed on the southâ€" westerr. side of the country in the neighbourâ€" hood of the Islacd of St. Pierre. This tribs of Indians who in course ot time found a bome in the island are said to have been ths most destructive enemies of the aborigines. The Governor viewed this introduction of a foreign and uncivilized element with great repug. nance, and wrote : to the, commandant at Louvisberg to recall the passports he bad given, and > to issue no more to apy of the tribe, ‘The order was of no effect in preventing the incursions of the Mic. Macs who,took possession of the altractive bunting and fishing grounds in th« interior of the island, destroying or driving ths aborigiâ€" nes before them. & P P Day® ofindis ve anaftseniiztr en rrmar P toase e tations. It was then, however, declared by the Board of Trade to be part of His Majesty‘s g:nhfio.q and it was decid=d that the tish laws of navigation should be put in execution there, as well as in the other colonies. A Custom House was also establised about the same time. " The latter institution was not very thanktully received by the mer. chants and others. It was called an innovaâ€" tion. It was declared to interfere with the free trade of the fisheries.. Above all its table of fses formed :a topic of bitter complaint., Still lthdhcopotoomnmblhh- ment to be removed by these clamours : and. â€" Up to the year 1765, Newfoundland was not, according to Pepuzr, considered or recognized as a regular plantation, but merely a fishery ; consequently vessels going thither were not thought liable to the same regulations as those going lo'lbo other British colonies and planâ€" Suniiormem "Wh 1. 1y O Co AOe es d he thougbt, set aside the pretensions urged ensions u by other Canadian settlers. Bis efforts were in a measure successful, but so many were the dificulties and disputes arising from the reâ€" mains.of the country‘s connection with Canâ€" o t S e o e l is capable of being greatly improved ; but that at present very fow people are employed at it, because of the violent and unlawfol practices of some people to discourage and bstruct new adventurers, by which many ship loads of salmon yearly return from the rivers into the sea, which might be taken and carâ€" ried to foreign markets, to the great ben«fit of His Majesty‘s trading subjects, and of the nation in general," His Excellency also took great interest in the. fishery on the coast of Labrador. He visited the fishing stations on that coast. He found the natives intractable. Disorderly Europeans had taken up their: abode in the country, wantonly injuring, and thereby further alienating the natives. But the principal hindrance to the trade arose from _ the fast that certain Canadians had under the former Govâ€" ernment seemed to have acquired a vested right in some ot the best portions of the terâ€" ritory. Governor Palliser, However, introâ€" duced some of the regulations laid down in ; the statute of William III., mosifying or adding to them as circumstances required, At the same time he laboured to estatlish a !dagly intercourse with the natives, and. as ade, that it was deemed advisable, in 1%73, lo'm‘um to that Province. Governor Palliser seems to be the first Governor who gave any marked attention to the salmon fishery. In issuing regulations respecting it he thus refers to the subject :â€"â€" ;l-lgr-d:hubo eald salmon fishery C Limige ue ino in ons As ‘Those orders were strictly carried out ; for It is recorded, that at the close of the fishing season of the same y« ar, the master of a French vessel hbaving left behind three‘ mwen, with a shallop and all nec« ssaries and materials for a winter‘s fishery, for building new shallops, &¢., and that haviog wintered in the River Toames, in the Bay of Islands, where they bunted, fished uu{bnm a Dew shallop, they went to St. Pierre, delivered their fish and returned to their station ; 4 all which, being contrary to treatie®," says the record, "and a direct enctoachment on His Majesty‘s territories, the Governor caused the said shallop to be scized." The Governor hnhotcon-mdthuphh of the French ] vessel to take three men on board, carry them to France, and ordctéd that neither he nor any other masters of French abips should leavre any of their crews in the counâ€" try on pain of forfeiture of their ships if ever they returned on the coast.

It has a sponaceous fâ€"cl and stony quality, as its weight is considerably greater than that of one of cotton or linen of the same size. Aviong the relics of Pompeii preserved in the museum of Naples, are specimens of a cloth woven of a thread ‘of large size made of the fibre of asbestos. In this uninflammable canvas the ancients wrapped their dead bodies while the process of reducing them to ashes was going on. It was a protty severe test of the quality of resisting the destructive power of ‘heatâ€" greater, indeed, than could be sustained by a co:erlng woven of threads of iron wire. ; 10162 The appearance of the crude substance as it comes trom the mine, after a slight proâ€" cess of separation, is like that of rotted and bleached hemp, with long shining fibres, easily separated, a single one of which slightly twisted in the fingers forms a thread which it is difficult to break. The price at which thig mineral hemp is at present offered is about that of rags, so that for economy it has no advantage for the manufacture of paâ€" per. But undoubtedly as concerns this, much more can be made of it when it comes into other hands. A1ts chief recommendation for the manufacture of paper is its quality of resisting the action of fire, It follows, also, that it cannot be eaten by insects or perish by rot. I have seen specimens of paper as thick as cardboard, well suited to lining floors or the walls of houses. As a backing for the ecenery of theatres and for similar; purposes where the action of , fire is to be hindered, it can be made useful, as will readâ€" ily occur to anyone, a OUSE MAID WANTED. ; 4 ¢ MRS, THOMPsSON, / A pricet, a native of Arezzo, in Tuscany, whose time has been devoted to scientific studies, is the happy discoverer of a process by which the fibre of amianthus can be spun and woven, or converted into pulp for the manufacture. of paper. Being the proprietor of lands contaiming deposits of this mineral substance, the attention of Signor Del Corona was direcled to investigations which led to his discovery. His sole object now is to disâ€" pose of the crude material, which exists in inexbhaustible abundance, and leave to others with activity and skill in mechanical proces= ses to add this to the other commercial proâ€" ducts of the world.

It is known that in different parts of Italy there are deposits of amianthus, or asbestos ; but it is only since the récent experiments have been made that it has begun to be utilized. The prospect now is that before long we sball wige our faces on towels, and in the summer sleep in sheets of mineral linen, and read books and newspapers printed on paper which will not burn. We know well enough that the anâ€" cient Egyptians wrapped their: embalmed bodies in cloth made of the fibre of asbestos, specimens of which are preserved to this day, as imperishable as stone, of which substance it is, indeed, manufactured.
