markets the Western Ports.Indeed this is Mr.^ Galt\u2019s idea.Here ure bis words,\u2014.»' These nrt!_ ^o\u2019es (flour, pork, Ac.) will be brought down the St.Lawrence from the West, and not only will -the Esheror.en get manufactured goofs imported from Europe free, but they wilt also t,o able to buy previsions at the Free Ports cheaper than at any other point\u2019\u2019 ; or in other words, they will purchase them cheaper at G.tspé than at Quebec.I certainly approve of the principle of giving goods to the fisherman as cheap aa possible, and \u2022duty free; but l am quite convinced that to do that effectually, without beuefitting ore class and injuring another, the Porta on the Gaspé coast >m*«t not be made free.Lrt the goods, ns hither-^ *o be shipped from Quebec, and on the shippers wakmg a declaration that they aro for the use tff the fishermen and for trading purposes, the \u2019collector «ball be authorised to return the duty.This, I think, would bava the desired effect, and Would not disturb the present course of our trade with the Lower Ports.Fearing that I may encroach too much on your \u2022'Valuable tpacc, I must somewhaf.relitcinclly conclude, thanking you for your kinduess in giving insertion to mv hurriedly written remarks, T.II.G.Quebec, April 11, 1800.Errata,\u2014!a the 25th line of my last letter, for \u2018l moral\u201d read worst ; aud further on, for \u201cScot-laud\u201d ttni'Portlund jJdocrtiser.ENTERED OUT.fnrQtb];MorCb 27-Loui\u2018a> C,«,k !\tHubert Liverpool, March 27\u2014Jamr* Reddes,Roddick ; for NreMr, Uu :,,\u2018d nnd *r,\u2018 A* J- ilAllAM & TWO LOTS of BOOMS and CHAINS, lying at U.HION Cove.\u2014Apply to M.STEVENSON k CO., ^\t.\t.\ta Arthur Street.Queb.c, April U,'geo.\t44 Sa/c of Household Furniture, Horse, Waggons, Carts, $c., 4*c.Will be soW by Auctibn, on WEDNESDAY the 18ihiiisf\u201e at BALVKNIK HOUSE, St.Foy uoad, no.v occupied by Mr.Mitch bit :\u2014 OOUSEHOLD FURNITURE, eonristing of , ori'e,J'\u2019 '1 ahogany Book-Cases and Wsrd-jobes, Sofas, Tables, Ch drs, Lamps, Paintings, Refrigerator, Dairy Utensils, &c.AFTER WHICH t An exccileni family Hurse, ïyoïrs old, and warranted quiet in s idole or I ariuta ; A four-wheeled double Waggon, covered, six seits and lamps, both by Gtngras ; A light double Waggon, two or four seata a pleasure ; Double covered and single Garbles, Buffalo Kobe*, Ac.,&c., ; \u201caddle, double Bridle, and Ihtee setts Harness 5 -arden Roller, Farm or Snow Roll w, Carts, Berlin Sleigh», Farm U ensils, &c., &c.&e A good Milk Cow.\t\u2019 Sale precistly at ONE o\u2019clock, P.M, St B.4'J CHEMICAL BATH.\u2022pHE UNDERSIGNED would most respectively X Ifiform the Public, that the above FAIi FAMED BATH is now IN WORKING ORDER, and ready for all who wish to avail thtmsclres of such an jnr,- l)ISEASES,*djr ,UraU timJs °r RHEUMA1'10 .\tNORMAN MACK AY.Qui hoc, April 12, IShO.\t44 F.H.HALL, A Quebec, April 7, I860.TO BE HELD IN THE CITY OF MONTREAL.OM Tl!» OCCASION OF THB VISIT OF HIS ROYAL HIGHNESS TH IS PRINCE OF WALES BOARD OF ARTS AND MANUFAC * TL'RES «ill publish full partisulars in future \u2022dvtniseirteiiL QUEBEC POST OFFICE, 9th or Avril, I860.A MAIL K>lî F.NGI.AND, per Canadian Line, Will be closed at th a ofiiee, on FRIDAY, the I3tli instant, nt 7.30 A.M.; sud alto ner I'*?*.\u2018>\u2018i MONDAY, the 1C b iiisttul, al 7.30 A.M.43 J SEWELL, I\u2019osimaster, Miss Contribii'i»ns of Articles Canada wj.l be leceivtd.ftoia til y?.r: c.- 3 v- - -i ss?5 Ù* »¦ S 3 3 - fa\", fa n .t n Ü ; n ~.= ¦S'*\t» 2 5 j* Sf y.5 -.fa^ fT : -n n Z.n \u2022 \u2014 J \u2014 «\u2022 : .2 \u2022 r> rzi \u20225 c !
