KINGSTON, January 14, 1820. Late arrivals at N«w York and Boston have brought European intelligence to the Oth December, which is a month later than our form-'r dates. Parliament met, pursu¬ ant to proclamation on the 23d November, ami immediately entered on the considera¬ tion of the very important matters which de¬ manded their attention. We have only an extract from the Speech of His Royal High¬ ness the Prince Regent, but it is the most es¬ sential part, and refers to the actual state of the kingdom, to the danger by which its peace is threatened, and to the expediency of framing more effectual laws than were then in force for flic preservation of order, and the welfare of the people. Parliament seems to have been equally wHl aware of the necessity of (Strengthening the hands of the Txecutive, and nothing can in our estimation more clearly establish the positive existence of a state ot things, subversive, If allowed to continue, of all rule and legitimate authority, than the great unnni.nity and despatch with which Parliament h ts proceeded to frame laws for putting a stop to secret trainings to arms, for seizing all cannon and other engines of war belonging to private persons in the kingdom, under suspicious circumstauces, and for preventing seditious meetings. Party spirit has given way to the irresistible impulse of patriotism, and we/ind many of the oppo¬ sition forgetting their animosity and uni¬ ting with the members on the other side of the House in supporting the measures propo¬ sed by the Ministry for putting down the restless advocates of revolutionary doctrines. Here is another instance of truly "British feel¬ ing—a feeling, vvhich while it !a eager to pro¬ tect the liberty of the subject from the en¬ croachments of power, is alike anxious to prevent that liberty from degenerating into licentiousness and anarchy. The exemplary Eunishmeut of Carlisle for publishing the laspbemoas works of the infamous Paine, will nave a salutary effect in repressing the spirit of infidelity which now rears its horrid front, and stalk's with unblushing effrontery through the land. It i> v.vJI said by the So¬ licitor Ge iernl. in his Speech in Parhnment, Ihnt the imprudent acqMital of none, for his indecent and profane jarodies, some time afro, has fostered and ernb:>?dened this irreli¬ gious spirit—and it is probable that the prop¬ agators of these immoni writings were en- r our aged by the idea, that so long &5 tiiey nvide the Government the object of their wicked ridicule, no jury would briu^ in a ver¬ dict for their condemnation.

A quarry of a sort of stone not very dissimilar from Marble was foutitl a few weeks a2;o, in the neighbourhood of Gan- anotfue Iiy a stone-cutter lately from Eng¬ land. The stone, which is pronounced by Connoisseurs to be Serpentine, is of a greet) coiour, beautifully variegated with spots of white, it is of the finest texture, and is susceptible of an exquisite polish. This tnay be considered a valuable dis¬ covery, for as the quarry is represented to be extensive, the stone will be highly useful in the construction of fireplaces and other works of ornament. The stone cutter has brought up about a ton of this fine stone, and has already made a mortar, which is a handsome spe¬ cimen of his own skill, as well as of the beauty of the material. There can be scarcely a question that the rough and rock} region lying to the northward of this town abounds with hidden riches, which require only the researches of acute and experienced ob¬ servers to be brought to light, and be made to contribute to the domestic com¬ forts and wealth of ibe community. arc theji in fact al alt instrumental in i promoting trade* All know by experi¬ ence thnt they disturb the peace of the community, occasion great trouble to the Magistrates, and fill the Public Office* with complaints of riotsaud depredations: there seems to exist no good reason for their further continuance, AH efforts of (he Magistrates to repress the licentious¬ ness which always prevails have been ut¬ terly unsuccessful^ and the mischief at present arisingfrom them can only beef- factually prevented by an entire aboli¬ tion." --------------- Messrs.

It is our painful duty to record another fire which occurred in this Town on Sun- rfay evening and which deftroyed the Dwelling-houfe of Lieut. Fitz Gerald. The fire was firft obferved but (ling from the loof, and had there been an immediate fupply of water, the houfe would probably have been faved ; but fo long an interval occurred before water was procured that fcarcelyan effort was made to check the progrefs of the flames A little fnow that had commenced falling a tfiort time before, prevented the burning fhingles, wiifuti were earned a great uutauce by toe wind, communicating to the roofs of the neighboring buildings.

We are ready to admit thai many of those fairs which were Originaily es¬ tablished for the saleof particular article^ and were principally resorted to by men in a cer¬ tain line of business, and extensive dealers in those articles, have since fallen into decay, and arc now only frequented by pedlars and hawkers, for the disposal of their small wares, nitrl hy »eun'»nra of i Ih* and dissolute people. who are draw n thither Either for amusement or for worse purposes. And we have no hes¬ itation in agreeing with nkmo and the Lon¬ don Committee, that innler such circumstan¬ ces, when these fairs not only ee:t$e to be "instrumental in promoting trade," hut be- nne.a ntiisauce, they ought to be. abolished. fe arc further willing to concede that fairs are less necessary to Commerce than to Ag¬ riculture.

I view them as one of tie principal causes of those horrid instances of debauchery and profligacy which si often disturb and torment the public miid, and they may even be considered, a the rallying point of gamblers, drunkarts, seduce is, and such like. How matr unhappy mortals have suffered by the lavs of their country for crimes they have Ivt'o stimulated to commit through associates they have round, aud cohabited \iih at those ren¬ dezvous for pickpockets and swindlers ? In England they are considered on all hands, as receptacles for all that is vi¬ cious and depraved ; Mid viewing them as Marts for Merchanlize, (which I be- licve was the original mention of them, and upon which grounl i have no doubt you recommend them it would be diffi¬ cult to prove that the) ire in the least n •- cessary, if .lwMf».er tla>^iia>u\ixvi 'tint oa¬ sis of a contrary opinion, 1 think it would be troublesome, nav, impossible, to con- line Fairs to the above purpose; and that the trial would prove dangerous in the extre:ne to the peace of that country in which the experiment fa made.
