r HE DAY SCHOOL BELL-«A new Singing! Book for L‘ay Schools, called the Dag, School ' Bell is now ready. It contains about 200 pages of choir e Songs, Rounds, Catches, Duetts, Trios, Quztrteets, and Choruses, many of them written expressly for this work, besides 32 pages of the, Elements of Music. The Elements are so easy g and progre:sive, that ordinary teachers will find l themselves entirely successful in instructing even 3 young scholars to sing correctly and scientifically, } while the tunes and words embrace such a varie- ty of lively, attractive and soul-stirring music and sentiments, that no trouble will be experienc- ' ed in including all beginning to go on with zeal in acquiring skill in one of the most health-giving, beauty-improving, happiness-yielding, and order producing exercises of school life. In simplicity 3 of its elements, variety andadnption of music and 3 in excellence and number of its songs, original,‘ selected, and adapted, it claims by much to ex- cel all competitors. It will be found to be the besthook ever issued for Seminaries, Aoadamies and Public Schools. A few sample pages of the Elements, tunes, and Songs, are given in a circu- lar ; send and get one.

Stai'el, Esq., Mount Forest, D. G. W. C. T., for this County, organized a Temple of the Independent Order of Good Templars in the north part of *Egremont. Those who joined are persons of the highest respectabili- ty, therefore the success of the undertaking is certain. “ We regret that your Excellency has not been advised to submit for our consideration some measure which, While providing for such an in- creased representation in. the House, as is de- manded by the increased population of Upper Mr. Jackson seconded the amendment. He said that in 1856 he offered to the House a resolution to the same import as that which he now had the honor to second, and that the arguments he had used in support of it were similar in tenor to those made use of by the mover of this amend- ment. In 185?. the county he represention had a population of 12,000 ; it was now 39,000, and Huron and Bruce, which were represented by only one member, had 80,000 inhabitants. The whole excess of Upper over Lower t'anada bordered on 300,000, and yet it had no larger representation than the other section. It had been argued that if the principle were conceded Upper would dom- ineer over Lower Canada ; but he did not see any force in such an argument. Lower Canada was usually united, but in the Upper‘lh,»use people generally sought cause to ditfer politically, thence if one party in Upper endeavored unjustly to op- press Lower Canada, another would be certain to coalesce with Lower (Yanadia ns, thus securing them against any wrong. He believed Lower Ca- nada would exercsie even more power under the operation of representation by population than it did now, while the principle would reconcile the sectional diflerences which already existed, and prevent results which might seriously affect the interests of the country. Speech from the Throne was carried. Hon. Mr. Alexander has introduced a Bill to restrain Muni- cipalities from issuing Debentures beyond a cer- tain amount. This is a much needed measure. In the Legislative Assembly the question of Representation by Population created considera- ble discussion, but in a temperate manner, which is owing to some of the noisy demagogues being jected at the last election. Mr. Macdougall Eroposed an amendment to the Speech from the Throne, declaring it expedient to recognize the principle of Rep. by Pop. Hon. J. H. Cameron .‘uoved in amendment. to Matcdougall’s motion, to the following efi'ect : When the Union of the revolutionary American States was formed, one stipulation of their Con- stitution decreed that the Free and Slave States should have equal representation in both Senate and Congress. The North clamored for addition?- al representation on the same ground Upper Ca- nadians now do, and by treachery obtained it.â€" The result is, a disrupted nation. a ravaged and destroyed country irretrievably burthened with debt. The cases are" similar, and we hepe our legislators and the public at large may take warning. It is regretted that in Temperance, as Well as many other institutions, thereshould be found persons claiming to be its promoters and advo- cates whose social and merai standing renders them obnoxious to the community at large, and as a natural consequence, the cause they advo- cate. ,On the evening in question a fellow named Baliantyne, who has for some time past been prowling around this vicinity in behalf of thei, British American Order of Good Templars, withj several others of a similar stamp, repaired to: the place appointed for organizing the Temple, and refused to leave the room; and with shouts. 91?: scene language, and bmsts that they “ couldn’t be put out,” rendaed the place so ianle? lthat the respectable portion of the meetingâ€"‘ numbering nearly tlfirtyâ€"repaired to a private idwelling near by and «RM their Temple, fwhich they named “The i’ride ohm? «a iOn the foiiowingday Bafladtyneéntered a pri- E'vate dWel‘ing on the outskirts of this town for 'thepnlpgse of Mn 000mm to the Bflt’ph American Order d- Geod TQM and fining :an unprotected youhv Mic ‘in the housemate ;Ԥԣ_‘_:' M .51 ". 3.353 ti": .::' I 5"; This question must be approached cautiously. Representation by Populationis an innovation on our established constitutional usages.

The election of Speaker at the opening of a new Parliament has heretofore been regard- ed as affording evidence of the strength of the Government in the House, and ofthe Op- position, respectively. The election of M. Turcotte to the distinction of first Commoner; on the 20th instant, was the result, so far ae the members from Upper Canada were coe cerned,ol the application of a modified '1‘, lOf action. The Speaker is elected from be: ‘« per and Lower Canada alternatively, anb‘ hut-ems to be very desirable that he should .re- ceive the majority of the votes from the sec- tionto which he belongs; at all events the sectional vote afiords a good indication of the estimation in which a man is held by those who have the best means of information in reference to his ability or general fitness.â€" The Upper Canada members who voted for Mr. Turcotte had first ascertained that he would receive a majority of the votes of the section from which the selection was made. In this they showeda proper deference to sec- tional prejudices, without compromising prin- ciple. Nothing can be more unjustifiable than the wanton exercise of power. If we really desire to succeed in the attainment and preservation of equal rights and privi- leges we should concede whenever conces- lsion is in accordance with the sense of equal justice, and with the praCtice of intelligent courtesy. Mr. Sicotte, the opponent of Mr. Turcotte, has, during a former Parliament, occupied the chair with great dignity and satisfaction. He is a deservedly popular man, possessing in a large measure those qualities which please and make a man a general favorite.â€" Mr. ancotte is less polished, but probzfibly more able. The former is more gentlemanly, aocording to the conventional standard, but the latter has the advantage in power and in- tellect and force of character. The speech from the Throne is 3 states- man- like document. No fault seems to be found with what itdoes contain.

At last the girl, driven to desperation by the insults ollered to her by the man whom she charges with having effected her ruin, deposited the infant on the counter and left the store, saying that he would be compelled to keep it. Forthwith a furious storm ensued â€"-:md the Bailiff was sent for, but very cor- rectly refused having anything to do with the child. The poor little babe was allowed to lie on the counter crying and screaming for about an hour and a halflumil the heart of the mother relented, and. ‘she went and took it away. We would net'have referred to the disgraceful affair at all were it not for the fact "that it was made so notoriously public on the evening in questionâ€"and was even allu. ded to at the meeting‘of the Town Council where Mr. ' ‘ occupiesa seat. Of course we can say nothing whatever of his guilt'or innocence in this matter, and simply give the public particulars of the painful occrrence.-â€" In another column willbe found an article addressed to the member for thisl'iding, call- ing upon; him to provide some means thereby the injured in this case can decuie- reams,“ it app‘earsfthat she not Being saga-amt without. patients of‘gnardian‘s; cannot prose- .cute.’ The case is we!) strted' injh'e Commu- nication, and‘ftve hope ‘Wipll'result it: shine ‘good [to the irrjnretl. ’ f " _ ” ' i The resolutions in reply to the address will be moved by er.

The following sketch from the report of the surgeon of the Congress shows that the alarm of the Northern cities for their safety is not without foundation. It is now known that the Confed- erates have four other similar ressels--two on the lower MisSissippi and two at Mobileâ€"wh ch may soon have an opportunity of signalizzng themselves. The report says :â€" “ Scare ly an: perceptible eff ct was produced on the monster by our fire. Three or four very large holes were made in he" smoke-pipe, but it was so enormously thick, and so firmly braced by iron stays, that. we found it useless to attempt to knock it down. This damage to the stack did not appear at all to interfere with the working of the vessel. Indeed she steamed better and faster after she had been in battle an hour or two than at the c mmencement. » I was informed, however, that once, as her ports were thrown open, our gunner succeeded in firing one round into her. Three hundred rounds were fired by us altogether, so that it would ap- pear as thong“- two hundred and ninety nine of them had been useless. The Congress was a 50 gun frigate._ - __ - - - A Q .n In a n-- The first shell which pierced the Congress kill- ed the crew of seventy gunners attached to gun No. 7. This shell was 11-inch one, and was fir- ed at a range of about-one hundred yards. Every one of their shells burst inside of us. '1‘ ey must have cut off the fuses, as the distance between us was small. I was 10 .' king for an instrument down below when there came a crash,aud l was thrown forward on my face a distance of eight. feet. I escaped without injury, but. it seemed to be al- m05t miraculous. My bedding, blankets, trunks -â€"everythingâ€"wa.= scattered about the room.- The first wounded man who came staggering down the ladder for assistance had been struck in chest by a Splinter over a foot in length. While I was stooping over him, endeavoring to ease his pain, I heard another frigh ful crash, anda heavy door was thrown directly across the head and chest of the wounded man, barely passing my head. A higher art. than mine has eased him of his pain. He must have been killed instantly, as could not utter a single groan. The number of wounded was small in comparison with the num- ber killed outright. The fire of the Merrituac was so close, and so fearful that almost every'man who was struck at. all was killed. Neither were the wounds thtmselves of the ordinary character. They almost invariably took ofl‘ the head and one shoulder or cut the body directly in two. The only insignificant wound which I dressed was in the case of one of the crew who had his hand taken.

On the 8th they started for Tehuacan, since which they have not been heard from. Considerable sensation had been caused in Ver Cruz by an awful cata~trophe which took place some eight leagues (‘24 miles) from Orizaba. The writer does not remmber the name of the town and is altogvtl er very in- definite. A portion of the Mexican army, which had evacuated Grizaha. had ettcamped in this nameless town (somewhere?) within a circuit of '25 miles of that city. and on tl=c night ofthe 5th--“doubtless through accident” â€"â€"their powder took tire and caused a terrible explosion. demolishing the barracks; 1.300 men, (lead and wounded, have been taken from the ruins.

It needs no extraordinary conversation With the social habits of the Southerners to under- stand that there was no necessity for govern- ment interference to prevent the expreesion of opinions hoetiie to the cause of the seces- sionist. The persona? liberty, “the freedom of speech. of thonght and of the press ” were no doubt, left totally unimpaired by any act of the government, very probably because the onarantee after. led that they would not be abused to the prejudice of the infant State were considered 3'] sufficient. Still, how- ever, must be recorded in praise (f the pro- visional government, which has now been succeeded by a permanent one, that during its tenure of power none of those violent measures were had recourse to which so fre- quently proceed from governments which are the offspring of revolution.‘ A English Foreign Secretary was right when he spoke of the present conflict in America as a struggle for empite on the part of the \orth, and for independence on the part of the South. it is unnecessar} to determine. lt 1s however, clear that, risrhtly or wrongly, the Southern States have conceived themâ€" selves to have been misgoverned by what President Davis terms “ a sectional majority” and that their i1 terest were sacrificed to the aggrandizement of others. They have willed to have a special government ot their cwn, and to eflect that they are content to make great sacrifices. Hence the complacency with which the Chief of the Southern ercutive 'ooks 0:1 the pzcuniary aiitficulties of lis Sta. e, and cor soles his fellow citizens for the burdens they \1 ill be called upon to bear with the reflection that “nothing could be so had a failure, and any sacrifice would be. cheap as the price of success in such a con-- test.” To the President it is also a source of sath’action that the war has been carried on by the unaided exertion of the inhabitants of the Sitlli‘fietfl States. It might perhaps eqttallt be said that in the Northern States the war was maintained at the sole, expense of 1itizens there. without the aid of foreign loans. .\11d this Is undonl tedls true, though for :1 different reason.
