each other for au opportunity to fight out the difference, but there is a decided reluctance in coming to the soratch, us the battle, wheuever it takes place, will fx a goverument of some sort, and restore comparative trunquillity, until another bow-wow uukennels spd sets the Republic in another uproar.General Vivamo has the advaatage in holding the best position ; but he fears being checkmated if ha moves.Castello is the fighting man; be is Lhe General oftha O.P.party ; but he cannot show fight without a great risk of losing, from the position which Vivamo holds.Should the latter fali back on this part of Peru, the other will advance, and take the obanoe of picking him up.Party feeling runs high in Liwa for both sides.The country here is in such a state that you caunot go from Callao to Lima without a great chance of being robbed.A morder occurred a fow days since where the robber showed fight.He snapped two pistols, and, unfortunately for him, they missed fire\u2014io a momeat he bad threa or four knives in him.The common plan of the robbers is to strip their viotim to his shirt and drawers, not even allowing him bis boots or shoes.He must then either lay down in the cold and wet at the risk (and a great one too) of catching his death, in the shape ofa \u201c Tertian ague,\u201d which is very common and fatal here, or limp over a miserabla road filled with loose flint-stones, for three or four miles at least.Robberies ocour nearly every day, and every thing is sad and dull in Lima, I visited the city yesterday.Omnibuses now run to and from the port every two

he had no political friend on that jury who had aoy sympath7 with his principles, or any cos- sideration for big fate; be bad been couvicted, like O'Connell, by a packed jury.But instesd of being like G'Uonnell, a prisouer of State, surronnded by friends and all tie comforts of life, Goveruor Dorr 13 at work smobg convicts, io prison dress, and ;

but that the temple is still in progres, and that upon its completion he shall lave on a mission to bis native land; that messeu- gers have boen despatched to various end distant parts of the country for the twelve Apostles, and that on their arrival, a successor to the prophet will be chosen.It is well knowa that the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Company intend, as soon ae possible, to extead the railroad te the Obio river, butit is not yet determined at what poiut ou the Ohio river the road shall be terminated.At one timo it was thought it must necessarily be terminated at Wheeling, but it ie now uncertais where it will come.it would strike the Ohiv river 80 miles below Whesling and save so much ascending navigation to ose who come up in steamboats, and it would ta forty.miles of railroad, from the Ohio river to innati.Supposing this route be adupted, the part through Ohio would be fcom Parkersburgh to Coalville, on the Hocking river, trow Coalville to Athens, from Atheus to Chillicothe, and from Chillicothe to Cin- sivpati.Tho road would be through the whole distance in Oliv vearly ou a level.At least the varistions of leve! would be of no womont.It would make tho railrosd from Cincinnati to Balti- tiore just sbout 500 miles, aud it would be traversed in twenty-eight hours!!

for Vice President, Theodore Frelinghuysen of New Jersey\u201d; \u201cand [or President, James E.Polk of Tennessee ; for Vice President, George M.Dallas of Pennsylvania,\u201d and so it will continue till the month of November next, when the claims of the contending parties will he decided.If what the newspapers on the different sides say of the candidates to whom they are opposed he true, the United States are sure to have very bad Chief Magistrates for the ensuing four years; the newspapers of the different parties we suppose, however, understand that only fools believe all they say, and they are probably of opinion that the number is sufficiently large to turn the election.The New York papers of the 5th instant, contain the ¢¢ Manifesto to President Samuel Houston, informing him of the recommencement of hostilities against the Usurpers of Texas.\u201d It is dated \u2018 Head Quarters Miers, 19th June, 1844,\u201d is addressed to « General Samuel Houston,\u201d the President of the Usurpers.It concludes, I have the honour to rencw to you, assurances of my high consideration,\u201d signed ¢ Aprieny Wow,\u201d There are strange people on the southern parts of this continent, By-the-bye, there will be found on the first page of the Guzeite, an extract from the London United Service Gazette, which gives a nearer view of the state of things in one of the South American Republics, than we commonly meet with, We have heard enough however of them, through the United States papers, to believe that they have been all preity much alike during the last thirty years, since they came into existence.We thought that the negroes of St, Domingo would succeed in setting them a good example of » Which is in.Says that the Was that no Sectarian Cy).0 Victoria Cg).It was foun nations ?yop, course without \u201creligious denominations,\u201d and like practicable, In regard to religious bodies, perhaps it would | well for the Provincial Government to take them , they find them, and imitate that liberal policy towards all, which is practised, at the present day be the British Government, RE res The Montreal Morning Courier of the 7th instant, canal, public hand-bills, which it asserts have not been noticed by the authority ;

but we should think that any thing that is published, may be answered without resorting to personalities, which only serve to irritate and mislead.No, 1.\u2014The late Counsellors and the Wesleyan Methodist Church, To my defence of the Governor General against the attacke of the late Counsellors, 1 beg to add, in an Appendix, a few words in defence of myself agaiost the attacks which the organs of those Cous- sellors have made upon myself\u2014as much ingenuity has been employed to weaken my arguments by assailing me.1.It has been objected that as a clergyman, | ought not to discuss political questions.To the references | have made in the foregoing discussion and elsewhere, I will add two remarks.(1.) I bare been heretofore applauded for it by the very parties who now object to it.(2.) When I consulted very eminent doctor of divinity in the Wesleyan Methodist connexion, in London, on the subject, previously to writing my letters on the affairs of the Canadas in 1836, he remarked, that whilst he deprecated any religious body having any connexion with secular party politics, he thought that a minis ter who had been endowed by his Maker with talents, and possessed qualifications to discuss ques tions of government, was responsible to God for their exercise, as well as for any other means of public usefulness, when the general interests of his country demanded their use, The remark so far applies to myself and the present occasion, as to induce a satisfactory conviction in my own mind, that in my present huwble effort 1am performing my duty.And this is all I have to say on the sub: ject.2.The partizans of the Toronto Association hav endeavoured to make the WgsLEvaN METHODIST Cuurcy a party to their proceedings against her Majesty\u2019s government and the Governor Gener I had, and throughout the whele of the preceding discussions have, made po allusion whatever to anf church.I have written as a British subject, and as such I have addressed each man in Western Canaës But, notwithstanding all this, an attempt has been made to array the Methodists as a body against me Au appeal was first made to the Conference,andsinc® then to the members of the Wesleyan Metbodis Church throughout the Province.Such politic\u201d sectarian appeals are exeorable; and they impor upon me the painful vecessity (for which Iam 10 responsible) of stating the sort of grounds the lt Counsellors have to demand the support of the Wosleyan Methodists as such.(1.) As to appoint ments to the legislative council.A represeuts te was made, between one and two years since, ! .the Wesleyan Methodist Charch was entitled vs representation of at least two or three mensbers : the legislative council; but though an nddition à, several members has been made to that honor body, vo member of the Wesleyan po Church has been deemed worthy of a vecoul dation.(2.) Whilst a sprinkling of Wes se Methodist magistrates has been granted in Leg places, an extraordinary exclusion\u2014l will not gross partiality\u2014has occurred in other plane have been advised on good authority of the 10 vas ing facts in Victoria District : Mrs Baldwin Le twice a candidate there.In the first instanc', was entertained and zealously supporte Wesleyan Methodist roagistrate.A y declined doing either in the second instant nou both instances, it happened, that scarcely an ed for bers of the Wesleyan Methodist Church vo but they have disappointed us.vera] | Methodist § That magistrat @ y, Bal new com name of t 10 was 0 Methodis pumber seceding poted ou even 0 But 9 no | to suy M pot of th only Wes pointes (3) Not Church UA Province grer of Pr Jaie Court sheprey \u20ac for his se] Jaye cons! for Method bo reserve pen, such an oiot to an), macy upot aunihilutio formation purpose.\u201d of last Jut address, 1! the unsall done to Ul gsition © proceeding whilst the those lands \u2014{5.)

The Wesleyan Conference at the same time represented in another address, and by subsequent « well as previous communications, the educationnl qterests and claims of the Wesleyan Methodist Cherch\u2014that whilst each of three other religions hodies received nearly two thousand a year even for relirions purposes\u2014two of them more than two thou=abd pounds each, and one ofthem more than sen thousand pounds per annum from public sources, {ie Wesleyan Methodist Church received not a farthing for religious purposes, and only five huo- dred pounds per annum for purposes of education ; that the government was bound in common fairness t increase that educational grant to at least a thousand pounds per annum.But the late Counsellors thought it not a ance\u201d to require their advice or even notice.They could very well uoderstand that their own services were of \u201c adequate importance \u201d to eutitle them each to a thousand pounds per annum, and some of them to 8 good deal more ; but they had no withmetic by the rules of which they could reckon the entire educational labours and interests of the whole Wesleyan Methodist Church of any importance beyond the pittance of five hundred pounds a vear\u2014uo considerations of * adequate importance \u201d\u201d \u2014no principles of equal justice or public patriotism \u2014no capacity to conceive how the sum total of the labours of the entire Wesleyan body was equal in value to the sayings and doings of one of themselves \u2014though the matter was urged upon them with all possible earnestness and importunity.When such wag their estimate of the claims and interests of the whole Wesleyau body, is it surprising that one Wesleyan should thik that their services for that body were not of such \u201c adequate importance \u201d as to entitle them to any peculiar support from it, or to gay him on the subject of their public policy ?(6.) Nor is this all.A more important fact remains to lestated.À question of great pecuniary importance has for several years Leen litigated hetween the Wesleyan Committee in London and the Wesleyan Conference in Canada.The advocate of the Wesleyan Conference received intimation as eatly as December, 1842, that Sir Chacles Bagot's illness disabled bim at that time from investigating the papers which had been submitted to him.At that time it was intimated by one of the late Counsellors, that if the advocate of the Wesleyan Conference would obtain the Governor Geveral*s consent to refer the papers oo both sides of the question to his council, they would examine them and report their opinion and recommendations thereon for the consideration of the Imperial government.The consent of the Governor General was obtained, and the papers remained in the possession of the council util after bis death; but after all, they never thought the question of \u201c adequate importance\u201d to engage their attention or call for their advice.An order from home at length directed the withdrawal of the papers ; and thus the matter dropped.Had \u201cparty purposes\u201d been involved, they would doubtless have considered the matter of * adequate Importance \u201d to demand the right of giving advice ; Lit asit was only a question of law and equity affecting a large non-political religious body, they did not consider it of \u201cadequate importance > to exercise their right of giving advice upon it, when it was referrad to them! And in the University Bill itself, the Wesleyan Methodist Church was made the sacrifice\u2014the ass of burden\u2014for others.The bill added to the educational resources of the Wesleyan Methodist Church not one farthing, but look away its noiversity charter.This the Victoria College Board stated at length; but instead of offer- Ing opposition to the bill whose general subjects Were important, submitted the circumstances and tims of the chnrch on the subject to tho just and lonorable consideration of the government.Whether the late Counsellors ever thought those circum- Slances or claims of * adequate importance \u201d to engage their attention, I have, of course, no means of knowing, It is perfectly clear, however, in addition to the six facts I have mentioned, that whilst three religious bodios in Wostern Caunda have for Ma0y years received upwards of fifleen thousand Pounds 5 year from public sources, the late Counsellors did not regard the Wesleyan Methodist Church of « adequate importance \u201d to deserve a lécommendation to CONTINUE even n temporary \u201cssistauce for four years of more than five hundred Pounds a year, l may therefore well say, in the i0guage of a letter addressed to me many months %0 by à leading member of our church, that * It is train there never was an administration in Canada Which has done less for the Wesleyan Methodist hurch than the Baldwin administration.\u201d , hese facts were froguently and earnestly con- ras Upon by prominent ministers and mombers of te Wesleyan Church long before the late resigna- en took place; but we determined not to bring em before the public, to regard the administration n respect to its general measures, and to make pri- he communications respecting our own rights and à rests; and that such communications wero made in and again, in the strongest language, the lato iunbeellors woll know.But as strong and as sston- tiiog as these fats are, I have not so much as luted at them from tho beginning to the end of the v'egoing discussion.Nor did I intend to do so.os the organs of the late Counsellors have sought litt the Wesleyan Methodist Church into a Cal party for their support.They have thrown n the gauntlet; and 1 hesitate not to take it up: e And let the entire responsibility and consequence with themselyes.The ves.y seem to regard the Wes.toa Methodists as very good political * tools * at Me of a genoral elcction-very good hewers case of adequate impor.| of wood and drawers of water in such an emergency \u2014but of very * inadequate importance \u201d when the claims of \u201c equal justice to all classes \u201d come to be balanced in the administration and policy of the goveromeut, The Wesleyan Methodists and chris.tien men generally are not constituted or qualified to make very good party men ; heuce they generally come out minus in regard to the patronage of a party policy government.They are first to be merely corporals or privates in the * Legion of party; to the leaders belong the \u201cspoils of the cnemy.\u201d The Wesleyaus may indeed receive the patronage of office as captains or sergeants of election bands ; but then the emoluments of those offices are, the acquisition of a party master, and their honour is, the privilege of © wearing his livery.\u201d ROWING MATCH.[To the Editor of The Quebec Gazelte.] Mr.Eprror,\u2014It is some time since I have had the pleasure of witnessing a more interesting sight than that presented to the public hy the Amateur Rowing Clubs of this city, on Wednesday last, in which contest the ¢« Belle of Quebec,\u2019 an oak gig, built for practising, carried the race against two cedar gigs, one of them the \u201cFlamingo,\u201d a race boat.The pulling was excellent, even on the part of the losing boats, but the cool deliberate stroke of the Belle\u2019s crew was most to be admired.The unfavorable state of the weather at the time was much to be regretted ; in consequence thereof, the exciting scene was deprived of the smiling faces of our fair friends the ladies ; their presence and encouraging looks would, I am sure, have contributed much to the exertions of the rowers, more especially as the boat, in name the same as many of them, gained the day.I sincerely trust that the young gentlemen who have come forward and started this delightful amusement, will not allow the season to slip away without giving us a repetition of their skill.I am given to understand that the victorious hoat was built\u2019by-Stuart Greer of Cape Diamond : this speaks well for him as a builder, as also for her model, inusmuch as she carried the day, not only against the long odds taken by the ¢ knowing ones,\u201d who bette:l on her greatest opponent, the Flamingo, built by S.Cotnam of St.Rochs, a builder already well known on this river, but also against the advantages possessed by that boat in point of symmetry and weight.With many apologies for thus troubling you, I subscribe myself, Mr.Editor, A Lover or Aquatic SPORTS.Quebec, 9th August, 1844, [To the Editor of the Quebec Gazette.1 Mr.Epitor,\u2014I perceive in last night\u2019s Mercury a statement from the Editor of that paper of the rowing maich that took place on Wednesday last, near the Point Levi shore\u2014and although he states the winning boat to have been a quarter of a mile a-head of the others, he somehow or other forgets to mention, that while the two outside boats were contending ¢ neck and neck?\u2019 against a tide running like a ¢ Sluice,\u201d the inside boat, and consequently the winning boat, was going along in shore, with a strong counter current in her favor.The stewards, I believe, are now pretly well aware of the absurdity of having so pertinaciously insisted on the match coming off where it did, in opposition to the remonstrance of at least one of the crews interested, who knowing better, wished it to take place on the course where all previous matches have been pulled.The winning boat had an excellent crew\u2014she was well pulled, and might have won without any foreign aid ; still \u2019tis just as well that the ¢ quarter of a mile > should be accounted for, The Editor of the Mercury will please insert this in his next paper.Oar.Quebec, 9th August, 1844.COMMERCIAL.FORSYTH & BFLL\u2019S PRICES CURRENT OF TIMBER, DEALS, &c.[FOR THE FORTNIGHT ENDING TIE 8TH AUGUST,] Quescec, 8tx AvoustT, 1844.s.d.8.d.White Pine, in the raft according to quality and sizes, measured off.53@ 0 G3 Do.in shipping order do do.0 6 @ 0 6% Red Pine, new, in the raft, 32 to 37 feet average.0 7:@0 8 c new, « 40104{d0.do.0 9 @ 0 © se ** 40 [eet aver~ge in shipping order.%@0 0 Oak, Lake, in the raft.\u2026\u2026.\u2026\u2026\u2026.\u2026.\u2026.\u2026.1 2 @1 4 t¢ Rideau, do.\u2026.\u2026.\u2026.0l @I 2 # Inférior.\u2026.\u2026\u2026.7089 Elm, in the raft measmed off according 10 AVErAGE oeeevvrenconsrans 65@ 0 Si Asll.+00sso0s coeresnonsenessss-e 0 5 @ 0 6% BirCi.s\u2026000o0cccs0ceuu04 s00000000 0 9 @ 1 0 Tamarac or Hackimatac.\u2026.\u2026.\u2026.\u2026.0 4@0 6;

the difference being afterwards made up, either by a gradual increase of Premium, during a given period, or, by a corresponding gradual reduction of the sum Assured ; the option, in every case, being given to the bis object or convenience.Policy holder of selecting the mode which may.best suit \u2018Tue effect uf an Assurance on a person\u2019s own life, is to create Ar once a Property in Reversion which can BY YO OTHER MEANS be realized.Take, for instance, the case of a person at the age of Thirty, who, by the payment of £5 153.10d., can become, at once, possessed of a bequeathable property of £1009, subject oniy to the condition of his continuing the sane payment quarterly, during the remainder of bis life\u2014a condition which may be fulfilled by the mere saving of Nine shillings weekly, in his expenditure.Thus, by the exertion of a very slight degree of economy\u2014such, indeed, as can scarcely be felt as an inconvenience, he may at once realize a capital of £1000, which he can bequeath, or dispose of io any way he may think proper.In addition to the published rates, an exiensive set of Tables has been computed for Assurances of Joint Lives, the survivor of two or more lives, and for contingent Assurances : for Widows and Children, and for every possible contingency, affecting human life, against which it may be prudent or expedient to provide, The undersigned would particularly recommend, A Table of Decreasing Rates of Premium, on a novel, and of discontinuing the paymeat of ali further premiums, afier remarkable plan ;
