also, the travelling charges as heretofore ; no Member to receive pay for more than forty.two days attendauce.settee INDICTMENTS FOR LIBEL.We have to remark on the statement of these several Indictments, as given by Mr.NEiLsoN, in his paper of Monday last, that it contains some errors favorable to himself.One in particular, should be corrected, for the information of those who read at a distance.Mr.NEILsoN represents the Crown Oflicer as insisting on excessive Bail.The Bail required by that officer (and he would not have Jone his duty, not to have demanded it) was sufficient Bail, regard being had to the nature of the offences, and the circumstances of the party accused.Mr, NELSON'S statement is wrought up for effect, but he must not endeavour to make it appear that he has been treated in any manner inconsistent with the duty of the Crown Officer on this occasion, in the dilemma into which he has been hurried.The Indictments laid before the Grand Jury against Samuel Neilson, for Libels, were five in number, of which four were found true Bills, and the other was ignored.Of the four which were found, the first was founded on the publication of a Letter signed Thomas Fee, addressed to the Governor in Chief, and contained in Neilson\u2019s Gazette of the 29th October last.The second, on the publication of alibellous article, signed \u201c Minos,\u201d copied {rom the Minerve, and inserted in Neil- son's Gazette of the 29th November last, containing the most scandalous reflections on the Court of Oyer and Terminer, held at Montreal in Novr.last, and on the Grand Jury of the same Court.The third, on the publication of the Resolutions and proceedings ol\u2019 a sell-constituted body at Three-Rivers, stiling itself the Constitutional Committee for the District of Three Rivers,inserted in Neilson\u2019s Gazette of the 23th of Feb.last.The fourth, on the publication of the Resolutions and proceedings of a similar self constituted Body, stiling itself = A \u201c Meeting of'the Constitutional Committees of the Parishes \u201c of St.Gregoire, Bécancour,Gentilly and St.Picrreles Be- \u201c\u201c cquets,\u201d\u201d inserted in Neilson\u2019s Gazette of 10th March last, The Bill against Mr.Neilson, which was ignored, was grounded un un article in Neilson\u2019s Gazette of 20th Septr.last, relating to a General Order of Militia of Mis Exceilen- ey the Governor in Chief, Two Bills of Indictinent for Libels were found against Charles Mondelet, Advocate, of Threc-Rivers:\u2014the one founded on the publication of his Letter addressed to the Governor in Chief, contained in Neilson\u2019s Gazette of the 12th Novr.last ;\u2014the other on the publication of the Resolutions and proceedings of the above-mentioned self-consti- tuted body, stiling itself \u2018\u201c The Constitutional Committee of ¢¢ the District of Three-Rivers,\u2019\u2019 of which Mr.Moudelet was one of the Secretaries.A Bill was also found against John Robinson Hamilton, \u201c6 for speaking seditious words of the Governor in Chief of « this Province and of His Lxcellency\u2019s Government \u2018¢ therein.\u201d The Depot of the 79th Highlanders, stationed at Belfast, was inspected by Major-General TnornTon, on the 5th of Novr.last.After inspecting the men, who were paraded at 10 o'clock, in heavy marching order, and going round the Dinner Mess, he was pleased to express his approbation of the state of the various appointments, as well as of the whole interior economy, in the following very flattering encomium :\u2014 «¢ The men of the 79th Depot, at the time of my last in- ¢¢ spection, were a body of untrained Recruits, and I now ¢¢ find them to my surprise, and with the most pleasurable \u201c feelings, well-trained Soldiers.\u201d : After the review was over, the gallant General visited the Serjeants\u2019 Mess,\u2014its abundance, and the excellent system on which it is conducted, drew from him this remark : *« No Officers\u2019 Mess in Ilis Majesty's Service could be bet- ¢¢ ter; and no one could, if asked to take aseat at the Table, \u201c wish to be better entertained.\u201d\u2019\u2014 Belfast Paper.To the Editor of the Quebec Gazelle, Sin In the old Quebec Gazette of Monday last there appears what Mr.Neilson is pleased to style, ¢¢ a well authenticated story.\u201d That he considers it a matter of some importance is evident, from the circumstance of his placing it before the public in both languages\u2014until now, 1 have always considered that a well authenticated story had its foundation in truth, in this instance itis notso.He says \u2018\u2018 about ten evenings ago, at a house of public entertainment in this city two parties sat in adjoining rooms © separated by a thin wooden partition ; one of the parties was in favour of the administration of Lord Dalhousie, the other opposed to it,\u201d &c.&e.Now from the article alluded to every reader would be impressed with a belief\u2019 that two political parties had assembled at this house.The truth is, two or three Gentlemen were in the outer room, talking on subjects altogether unconnected with the administration, when the \u2018¢ speedy return of Sir F.Burton\u2019 was tauntingly roared ont hy an individual in the back room.¢ The health of His Excellency\u2019\u2019 was then given in the front room, to which the toaster of Sir F.B.added, *\u2018 the greatest enemy Canada ever had !\u201d evidently to the satisfaction of the parly ** opposed to His 1 agree with Mr.Neilson in saying that it is very probable the gluse bad circulated pretty freely with this party : in vino veritas is a very old saying, but really, Mr.Editor, it is;Ligh time to inform him, that his well authenticated stories can be no longer pawned upon the public with impunity, or without contradiction.\u2014 Three individuals are here made a purty opposed to the administration of the Earl of Dalhousie\u2014it is truly amusing that two Brothers with a young friend in company could not pass their evening, however thoughtless and intemperate their language, without being duly honored with publicity by that perpetual guardian of the people's rights, the Editor of the Ex -Gazette.It is very evident, Mr, Editor, that the sole object of Mr.Neilson in giving insertion to this story was to adorn his mischievous columns with the gratifying exhibition of the toast, ** Perdition\u201d &c.addressed to the friends of the government.VERITAS.GAZETTE DE QUEBEC.BUREAU DE L\u2019ADJUDANT GENERAL DES MILICES, Québec, 31 Mars, 1828.ORDRE GENERAL.Son Excellence le Commandant en Chef ayant pris communication de l\u2019Enquête qui a eu lieu sur la conduite de Joseph Délaurier, Clement Hudon et J.Bte.Ouellet, ci-de- van{ Capitaines du lr.Bat.de Cornwallis, démis du service de Sa Majesté, le 20 Nov.dernier en conséquenee du rapport du Lt.Col.P, Taché, commandant ce Bat.de leur désobéissance aux ordres, et vû qu\u2019ils peuvent avoir êté induits en erreur par un mal-entendu sur les ordres;
