Tho scene from Castlo ttqtitcn during these cere
monies was in thn highest degree imposing. On
one sido wa* tho bay spread out in a calm and beau-
’tiful street of water, covered with vessel* of every
soil gaily decorated nnd alive with human beings, to
tho north lay tho shipping, with its forest of innsts
nnd thn lings of nil nations, surmounted by tho un
sign of the American Republic, waving in the breeze,
on tho other side was tno vast area of tho botterry,
which seemed like one dense mass of men, with
every post and ovory tree occupied, whilst far in tho
di-tunco tho long lino of conch lop* und hoii-m top*
was covered with eager and «nimat. d spectator*.
At thn conclusion of tho ceremonies in thn gar
den the President, mounted on a very graceful and
spirited black hurst*, reviewed the six thousand
troops gathered on thn battery, when they wore
formed into ranks and the procession began slowly
to mow op Urni'dlvay, surrounded oil all sides by
multitudes of persons of both soxes mid of all ages
Tbo line or march was from Broadway up Chatham
at. and tho Bowery,through Broome »t. into Broad
way ngain, from whuncu it roiurned to thn Park,
whore tho nssurnblngowu* dismissed, and thn Presi
dent took Ills leave of tho people for the duy undd
reiterated hurrah*.
Wherever tho iuterminuhlo pmco*sion passed it
was hailed hy the cheers of tho tliruugscollecied up-
eu tho sido walks, hy the waving liundkoichicfs of
tho iudio* who crowded thn balconies and windows,
anil by tho iluiutsHnd gestures ef groups who hung
upon the very oaves of (lie bouses. A succession of
thronged head* continued along rim whole course
that tho vust body advanced. A mure animated

PARLIAMENTRY SUMMARY.
May 27. Both houso# met, pursuant to the or
der taken ut the mBuurmnu.it. In tho Houso of
Lords, Viscount MollHturne, in answer to n ques
tion, stated that a moasi.ro, relating to Cnnh.ln was
under ndvisomonr, but could not yot. mime a day
for bringing it Ibrwurd.
Loni Uniughum mittlo enquiries relative to tho
outrageous conduct imputed to Col. Prince, of Up-
por Canada. Ho wished to know whethor any
istens Imd boon taken to punish him; saying that lie
had disgraced tho name ofa British oHiocr. Allud
ing to tho justification «f<Col. Prince’s conduct by
Si. George Arthur, Lorn Brougham said that noth
ing but insauity could excuse it.
Tlm Marquis of Norntunby said that disapproba
tion of Col, Prince's conduct hud been communi
cated to Sir George Arthur by her Majesty’s Go
vernment. Ho complaiuod, however, -tlmt Lord
Uruugham had said nothing ubout tho extenuating
circumstances of tho case.
Lord Broughum moved for a return of tho pa
pers. Ho had read tho report of tho court of in
quiry, which was any thing but satisfactory. A*
a lawyer ho had no hesitation in aaying thnt Col.
Prince was guilty of murder- Gov. Wall had boon
hanged for an act similinr to this.
Lord Normanby said ho had no olnoction to pro.
duco tho papers; and reposted that disapprobation
had been expressed of Col. Prince's conduct.
Lord Brougham said that was not enough—there
must bo punishment, and severe punishment too.
In tho House of Common* tho first business ta
ken up was tho election of a Spoaker. Tho Tory
nominee wa* Mr. Goulbura—tho Whig Mr. Shaw
Lafcvrc. The latter wa* elected by a mqjority of

Your observations upon nn imitortnnt quest Ion In
tegatd to otff domestic policy— tint of an Indepen
dent treasury show a very mature and just consider
ation of the subject in nil its lnnirings{'lo*t.-d by the
>rincl{do which I.hs been uppuse.i tu it—that of giv-
"ff a temporary usoiff tho public money, nnd a con
sequent control over It, to private corporations irre
sponsible tu tho people—It may well Im regarded as
a question involving the nnture, ami to sumo ex
tant, thu existonco uf republican institutions,ns well
as a consideration of the mu'n purpose, for which
our government was established; whuilmr for tho
safety of the ninny or tl.u aggrumlizuinuni of the
few—whether or net to sucitro tho greatest good to
tho greatest number, In our view thu only legitimate
yolduct of tho institution uf government among men.
Tt is, to my mind, curtain that under a system like
obra, and in com
the population
quustiun embracing such considerations cannot lung
remain In daub*. Private interest and individual
efforts under mistaken impressions ns to it* tenden
cy, may indeed obstruct and delay, but they cannot
control its final adjustment. On the contrary, wu
cannot be deceived in believing that tho period (s ra
pidly nppronchThg when those efforts will bo discon-
limed,—when personal considerations will, nno-
Vjffdnbly, bo merged In the general current ofpitiriio
Tontlmont, nnd when tho common interest in tnU rq-
spent will bo placed un its only tine and solid foutK
dalion by llift ndantinn of thn ntoasuro referred to
with the appiohmion of the |moplo.
Tho view# which you have taken of particular
points in our foreign relations, which recently pre
sented a very unfitvorahlo aspect, are conceived in
the same just and enlightened spirit. Tho long con
tested question between Great Britain and ourselves
in relation to tbo Nerthonstern boundary, there is
roasnn to hope is in a fltirway Tor h speedy nnd nmi-
cnblo settlement, and tho troubles un the Cunn.linn
border, have, l am persuaded, passed their most
dangerous crisis.
To cultivate a spiritof liberal concession our pub-
lie relations and attlio same time, to inaintra* with
every power our national honor unimpaired, and
properly regarded by you hs trusts of the highest
nature^«Exp«rlonco Ims shown that these can bo
best discharged by invariably demanding justice
ourselves, and at invariably pursuing tho same line
of conduct towards others. A momentary forget
fulness of the Tatter and great duty by a small num
ber of our citltons on thu Northern frontier, had
well nigh broken up thu peaceful relations of two
i real nations, and exposed to irreparable iqjury the
. earust interests of millions of proplo, impelled to
tho most amicable intercourse by tho strong tics of
reciprocal interest*, a common origin and acorn,
'language. The iiyuricu* consequence* of a wm
twqmn thorn, not only to the particular interest*
cacn, but to those also of mankind,could not well
exaggerated. It may, indeed, lie safely utUrmcd,
that there are nst two other nations in thu world, a
war between whom would sever so many ties, or
who are cupablc of inflicting upon each other inch
complicated nnd diversified evils, A!:huu-h these
considerations have no weight, and would probably
receive from neither more than a passing regfc-t in
respect to tho prosecution iff a war rendered in.li*-
pvntabl.. by a duo regard to mo nutionul character,
they could not be contemplated withuui the deepest

Lord Joint llussol—mostly of u po itioal amt party

In tho Houso of Commons, Lord John Russell
announced tho intention of ministers to propose a
resolution for a penny rate of postage—which was
received with lend cheers from both sides of thu
house.
Tho attorney general brought before the Uo.mq
1 oxtruordiuny case involving its privileges. Mr.
Hansard, tlm printer to tho House, had been pros
ecuted for a libel, which lilml was contained in cer
tain tmpors that tim Houso bail ordered printed.
Ho, Urn attorney general, had boon ordered hv thu
Houso to defend Mr. Han*ur.l, nnd had done so
but tbo Court of Queen’s Bench hnd that day pro
nounced judgment in tho casts, deciding that the
defence wn* not maintainable—in effect, that tho
House had no right to older the printing of paper*
which might contain ft lib. I. This wo* a most
alarming decision, und deeply affected tho privileges
of tho House. One cousoqu. nco would Im that
they must tuko care and print only C58 copies of
their paper*: nnd whenever parliament wa* dis
solved or person* censed to bo members, nil copies
in possession of such member* must be destroyed,
for if they read them, or allowed others to rend
them, they might be prosecuted, for li' cl# Ho
moved tho appointment of a committee to inquire
into this matter. ^
After an animated debate the motion was agreed
to—tho committee having power to send for per
sons (the judgo*) and papers.
Both houses adjourned to Monday, June 3.
Juuo 3. In the Houso of Lords,' Lord Brough
am complained of a breach of privilege. Tho "of
fender was tho Sunday Observer—Lord Palmer
ston’* paper—and the offence was, first in saving
that not u *iugle poor had left the House on Friday
night who was not disgusted with bis, Lord Brou
gham’s *|icech, nnd, secondly, in alleging that he
had attacked tho sovereign. Hi* Lordship made
m motion on tho subject, hi* object being only to
make a public denial of tho latter charge. °
Lord John Ru*sell br night forward hi* resolu-
tion* upon tho state of tho Canadas. He went
somewhat at length into nn argumentative state
ment of the condition.of afi'.ir* in the two provin
ces, corresponding with Lord Durham’s rejM»rt, and
arriving at tho concludon that tbo'oniy practicable
measure uf relief wo* a legislative union.
lu tbo plan now proposed to Parliament tho g.w
vermneut had conm to the conclusion that the re
presentation should not bo regulated by die popula
tion, •* it exi*tod in each province, but by t|tc dou
ble principle of territory and population—which
would havo the effect of giving greater weight to
tho English loyalist* in both province* than they
now po**c**ed.
To obviate the danger of giving a representative
svstem to district* lately in rebellion, he proposed
that no Assembly should be called until lUt I--c oa .
tiuuing to the Governorof Lower Canada the power
be possesses, and even increasing it where neces-
"ft. crown revenues lie propose! to give into die 1
comp!.»te routroi of tho Assemblies, after securing

providing that tntitcrs shall remain as they are un

Sir RobertPoalaapretend hlsdistadsfactiun with

late immediately upon the state of tho Canadas.—
He had his doubts a* to the 1 fficionry of die meas
ure proposed, ami did not liku giving a pludxe in
1839 for something to he dorm throe year* hence.
Mr. Hutno opposed thu whole piinciplu* of tlio
measure. It would not restore pence to diu Cana
das. Nothing would do that but allowing thu peo
ple to govern themselves.
Mr. C. Uullursald it would be betterto abolish
t(in House nf Assembly tit oncM,*snd leave the exec
utive In Canada without uny check. Ho predicted
new disturbance* nml trouble ns soon ns the winter
should set in, unless the government were Immedi
ately established on a permanent bull*.
Mr. O’Connell also opposed tho mensute. It
would be unjust to dm French population, who Im.l
already been sufficiently ilkreuted by England.
After some farther remarks thu debate wus ud-
journed to the 10th.
In tho House of Commons Sir II. Fleetwood
moved for leave to being in a bill to extend tlm 10

Lord John Kussoll snid Ilm proposed extension
would offi ct a grant change in the representation,
and Itn coaid not agree to it now, nor even say that
tim government would be willing tosupporl it ut.iuy

faitly brought before tlm House—that it was not 11
diqiarttirc from the iirinciplu uf the reform bill, and
llint, if agreed to, it would not, in his opinion,Intro
duce any dangerous innovation into tbo uloclhe sys

TimNewYo.k correspondent of thn U. States
Gazette leils tlm following atlucting story of 1I10 fa
tal effi'Ct* of un indulgence in the worst of all vice*
—habitual dninkeniie*-:
A crowd hnd gnthcied near the gate at the soiuli-
tii extremity of tho B .ttery, ami sev.-rnl voice*
rose at the sume moment upon tho air, crying Ibr
vengnr.ee upon n luttered form, that reeled into the
enclosure, in a beastly stale of intoxication lie
was apparently about fifty yen.* of age. and wa* fid-
lowd l.y a young, boiioiifnl, und interesting girl, not
out nfbor icon*. \ moment before 1 saw lint bo
lin.l raised bis arm, and s’riick this lovely being to
the earth. For this the crowd wa* pit tiling him,
and would doubtlus* have committedsome summary
art upon the inebriated wietch, bad not tlm sumo
‘delicate form interposed to prevent the consumma
tion of tho deed. Site approuclmd timidly, nnd
fondly begged tlm monster to go home. Ho swore
by too living God that be would never return. Lit
tle did be think, a* Im uttured the until, that the
vengeance of 1 lint God hi* tncriliginu* lip* profaned,
■vii* at that moment It 1 aging owr him, and riiui the
ngol of dvuth wu* vvuitiug upon the water* to bear
hint, with all his tins lipoa hi* (mad, into tho pres
ence of the Creator he had mocked.
He shook 1 ho fair girt from him with n cursn
and staggered to tlm railing. A cluster of boats
was at sumo distance from tlm shore, and n few
voices were singing ono iff Russell's excellent songs.
1 be drunkard contrived to dumber on rim upper
most rail, and having seated himself, nailed to .lie
singer* to perform something lively, or «|—n bis
ey.'s, lie would come rut there und sing for himseif."
1 lies.) were tlm last Words lu) uttered. In endea
voring to cliangu hi* position, bis foot slipped, and
ho fell interim waters tu rise no more. Great ex
ertion* wen* made by tbu boats to render him as
sistance, and more than one dnring fellow plunged
Into rim sen; ba: all in vain—hi* body ha* not yet
been recovered. The tide wu* running strong at
tho timo. and we may hear of his body being washed
upon tbo opposite shore in n few days.
Tlm poor girl was almost frantic—she rushed tn
the w ater's edge, crying “ Fullmt! dear, dear, fa
ther! For Heaven’s sake, save my lather!” It was
indeed b*r father. He had once enjoyed u hand-
some property, but liquor ruined him. lie sold his
hmiso f.»i it, uii.I at last his garments. His wile
hnd died from want, und this daughter had suppnrt-
edliirn und three brother* by the labor of her hand*.
Ho swore he wuuld never,, again enter her homo,
because slm would not give bin. liquor—he cursed
Imr und died while. a curse aguinst himself yet
hung upon his lips. Tlm daughter did not leave
the spot before midnight, nnd her c»W appalled
the stoutest hourt* around her. Twenty dollars
wore raisedamotng tho spectators, but when hand
ed to her, she exclaimed, •• No! no! give me my fa
ther.”
Poor git I, sho called in vain. Thnt father was in
oilier presence. She whs borne from ihe place by
some friends, and when I left the spot, the lightnes*
of heart which hud drawn me to ihe scene, had
departed and I felt it almost a tin to Im happy
amid the wretchedness man mikes for himself.
ANKtMiTitor Dii. ADato*Ci.*iiKt.—Among the
question*always before admission is the following,
"Are you In debt!” Though rather a whimsical
incident,this question w as likely to liavo deeply puz
zled and nonplused Mr Clark. Walking in tlm
street one morning with another preacher, a poor
man askcvla half peony. Mr. C. had none, but
borrowed on., from the preacher who wn* walking
with him. Tlioptrachur happening to go out of
town, ho could not see him during the Joy to repay
this small sum. When he stood up with tha others
lie knew not what to say, when thn question, “ Are
you in debt!” should bo proposed. He thought.
If I *ny I nut in debt, they w ill n«k tun how mttrhf
whoa l say 1 own one half penny, they will natur-
ally supptise mo to bu a foul. If I *ny I nm notin
dolit, this will bo n lie, lor I owe nm* hull* penny,
and am n* truly under the obligation to pay, as if
tlm sum were twuniy pounds, and while 1 owe that
I cannot consistently w ith i teiuul truth, suy, I nm
not a. debt." Ho wu* now most completely within
the horn* of u dtlumnin, and which to takclm knew
not, and tha qucHtism being put to him before ho
could mako up hi* mind—" Mr. Clarke, are you in

life:
" As the dominie generally preached by the hour,
a bucket of water was providently placed on n bench
near rite door, in summer, with a tin beside it, for
tho solace of those who might bo athirst, cither
from tho heat of the weather or the drouth of the

Around llte pulpit, and behind the communion tn-

awe, as so many opo«Ue*. They were stern in
their sanctity, kept a vigilant eye upon my gigling
companion* and myself, and shook a rebuking fin
ger at any hoyiih device to relieve the tedioutness
of compulsory devoti-n. Vain, however, were all
their efforts at vigilance. Scarcely bad Urn preacher
held forth for half an hour, in ono of hi* intermina
ble soiroon*, than it seciucd as if the drowsy inffii-
eoce ot Sleepy Hollow breathed into llte place; one
bv one the congregation sank into slumber: the rano
