Let the Radicals look at die compo¬ sition of this famous Legislature. Let those in England who entertain them- SeltQS penning diatribes against the House oj Commons admire the result of Uni¬ versal sull'mge on this side the Atlantic. JIovv would they be pleased to see a ma¬ jority of La iv)crs in the British Parlia¬ ment? In lite Senate ofthe United States, Mhich cuiimsIs of forty two, there are twenty three Lawyers; and in the House of Representatives, consisting of one hundred and eighty six there are one hundred Lawyers. It may easily be shewn that su.ha power as this in the bauds of any single profession must in time produce the most pernicious effects; and wfiPQthis profession is the law, restless and ambitious- -giving sharpness and sub¬ tlety of intellect rather t-ian great and extended views, evils wiijfce seen felt. It may indeed be added that the Uni¬ ted States are governed by Lawyers— they are the majority in the State as well as in the General Legislature. They engross ueaily all the high oinc^s of Stale at home or abroad. TKe Presi¬ dents have Let"nail Lawyers except Wash¬ ington. Trie State Governors zvj com¬ monly of that orofessiouj siucl all the Ambassadors. By the way, I Iv^pe ymw correspond* e»t Scrutator feas»oJ fallen asleep. I see Ihftt Vv'alsh, with genuine American van¬ ity, boasts of his succeSt til his Appeal, though furiously attacked from Canada, &c. but it is ca-ror to boast than answer. I wish Scrutator would take in the National Gazette, and reply sometimes to the malignant slanders with which it teems against Great Britain. It is melancholy I admit to behold such a man prostituting his talents for a daily subsistence ; but his literary chuMCter vends his pois-on, and it is uur duty to counteract it as much as we can. Were the othcrEditorsto attend to this as much as you do, they would doerve well of Wit* Car.adas ; but their papers, especially fi'.m the Lower Province, contain al¬ most nothing but advertisements. They furnish nothing original themselves, r»oi are they disposed to copy from \ou. The articles on the improvement of lite Saint Lawrence—the Lrftcrs to \Val:h—and many oihei va»uahle communications which have appeared in your paper they have passed over ill i-ilcnce, while filliutf the litile portion cf their journals which they spared from advertisements with trash from the United States. 1 hope such conduct, if perseve red in, will soon be punched with tlie loss of all their subscribers in Upper Canada. In the States when a ^ood article ap¬ pears in any paper, however remote, it goes the rounds ; for the Editors have a little more regard for their renders than those of Quebec and Montreal. CU1TO. mm$tm esBfomteb ■ same time that it exposes the «tentofthe evil. We know not whether the same inconve¬ nience is felt in other parts of the Province, utft it is probably the case—and as it is on the increase, some means should he devised to (heck the issue of such quantities of spurious Halfpence by Speculators, who in vending .hem by the pound or cask, realize a profit oi cent percent. The importation of this sort of money was commenced at the close of ihe v?ar, when there was a general Scarcity of small change, and the facility with which the coppers were vended, added loan eagerness for greater profits, has induced these specu lators to import furtherquuntilicsofthe same illegal halfpence, though still lighter and less intrinsically valuable. The evil has now reached such a height that some measures must be adopted to check it, or the commu¬ nity will sustain a very heavy loss. Those inueed who will be the greatest sufferers are the poor and the ignorant. The grand ques¬ tion is, how is the evil to be remedied, and the circulation of worthless coppers effectu¬ ally checked? Not, we would answer, by any combination of persons agreeing to take one description of coppers, and refusing another, for all are deiicient in value, as well as illegal. Halfpence, it is true, of some sort or other, are iudispensible for change; and in the mean while, the most objectionable kinds might be forced out of circulation by the unanimous resolution of the public to take only the bet¬ ter kinds. But the true remedy can only be applied by the Legislature.—all others are merely palliatives, and inefficient in their op¬ eration. The necessity of a good copper currency is acknowledged on all hands, and proved By the attention paid, in a measure adequate to its importance by all govern* h.ents. This province, from its peculiar situ¬ ation, has hithe; to been left without any good copper currency, and i:i consequence all cop¬ per coins, the refuse of other countries, have passed current amongst U3, and wehave been besides the jiey of speculators, who have coined Halfpence for us of as little value as Wood's Halfpence, so famous in Irish Histo¬ ry.—We therefore conceive tin* the only Way to put a stop to abuses so injurious to rha internal trade of the country, is for the Legislature to cause a certain u/ianiity of Halfpence to be coined in England for the use ofthe province, of the proper Provincial Cur reucy, and this coinage would thus answer all the purposes of change,&-us;t would not he current in any other country would always remain with us- It may he .*iid that a cop¬ per coinage for the tis-.e ofCauada is unneces¬ sary, because a quantity of English Halfpence might be imported ; but tfiis could only he dour by rhe Government, and it is not cer¬ tain hov\ King tliey would, v. heji thus import¬ ed, le.nah, iu the country. No Merchant would import them, unless they could be ob- iiiined from the British Mini, at a rate much below the standard value ; for besides the expeiiees of transport, he would lose the dif¬ ference between Sterling and Halifax Cur :jucv.

A rebellious spi¬ rit is said to have h< en shewn by several Pa¬ chas in different parts of the Ottoman Em¬ pire, which it will require all the energy of the Sublime Porte to reduce to order.

It may therefore be important to point out some prescribed form with the most simple mode of collecting and forward¬ ing such statistical reports from every township, this is easily accomplished by local information, obtained at any parish or other general meeting held by the in¬ habitants ; when it can also be ascertain¬ ed, what each individual's share of the expeune of subscribing to the report will be, according to the length agreed upon to be transmitted ; which in few instan¬ ces can exceed 1/3 or 2/C Currer.cj.* Reports of large tracts of land (from private individuals) will be received, and faithfully published upon the Same terms.
