Thejfollowjng address to th/puMic,or:jr1inal!y appeared in the Joangor Itegister,(Maine) and the circumstantial documents which ac¬ companied it, so obviously alluded to an indi¬ vidual who lately ixepoaed upon tlie inhabit¬ ants of ?dontreaf, under the name of G. Fan Hobten, that it is thontrht expedient to ^ive the subject all the publicity, which is due to religion and morality. TO THE PUBLIC. The subscribers feel it to b« a duty which €hey owe the institution with which they are connected, and the public at large, to state, for general information—that, early in Octo¬ ber last, a young man, calling himself John Bovee Doos, but whose red name appears to be John D. Bovf.s, came to this place, and offered himself as a candidate for the charity of the Theological Institution estab¬ lished here. He said that he came from Am¬ sterdam, N. Y. had been hut four weeks on the wuy, wasa member of the Presbyterian church in that place, in regular standing, of •which he proauced an ample testimonial signed by Halsey A*Wood, as Moderator 01 the church, by whom he was also recom¬ mended as a suitable person to receive cha¬ ritable assistance towards obtaining an edu¬ cation for the gospel ministry. The appearance of uncommon piety, which he assumed, concurred to stren." !li°n the re¬ commendation which he produced, and he was accordingly, without he-it../on, received as a probationer for the usual term of three months, under the patronage of the institu¬ tion. It gives us pain however, to be obliged to state, that, according to his ©wft confession before the Trustees and Professors of this in¬ stitution, the certificate which h^ produced was a/orgery, and that it was not the only one which lie had used for a similar purpose —that, instead of having come directly irom Am.-terdain, he had been a considerable time at the Academy in Andover, where he prac¬ ticed the same imposition, as that of which he has since been guilty here, using there likewise a forged certificate—and that he had been dismissed from th.it institution, with disgrace. What his true character in, may be learned from the subjoined letters and certificate. The first of these was written by J. Adams, Esq. Principal of Phillips' Academy, to o:.e oftne Trustees of this institution, who, i:i consequence of reports unfavorable to the character of Bovee, addressed a letter of in¬ quiry to Mr. Adams, on the subject. The two following were written by the Rev. Mr. Wood, Pastor of the Presbyterian Church in Amsterdam, N.York, in answer to letters of inquiry from Mr. Adams. We will only add, that in his examination before the Trustee?, his conduct was of a piece with what it ap¬ pears to have been, for stun e time before—as he discovered such a destitution of moral principle and disregard t» truth, as was pain¬ ful to witness. It may be proper to men¬ tion, that, on being asked the character of Mr. Wood, previous to the disclosure of the letters being made to him. he said that.hr vyas a person of unquestionable veracity, and that he would consent, that any statement which h«3 should make with respect to himself, SftUuRl tu iCuti'.veU .i.-# ti.til.. .*.« u*'_ 1- .lute mentioned Bovee may exhibit a certificate oi'good character, which was given him hy u?, last autumn, we take this opportunity to Plate, that as that was given in virtue of the forged testimonial above named, and a short acquaintance with him. we wish no validity to lie attached to it in future. John Smith, Prof. r*fThral*zyn BANCROFT Fowler, Prof. Class. Lit. The letters alluded to in the foregoing ad¬ dress, contain a brief account of Bo\ce * ori¬ gin, anddevelopethe most singular turpitude of conduct. He was born of respectable pa¬ rents in Amsterdam, N. York, and within the last tw -• years, he married the daughter of a gentleman who resides in die vicinity of Al¬ bany. Soon after, however, he abandoned his wife for the seduction of innocence ; and when offended justice was about to crush him, he fled for protection to the s net lary hehad most polluted. From the iieligious Semi¬ nary at Andover, his conduct soon procured him an expulsion, when his evil genius di¬ rected him to Bangor. VThe description which is given of Bovee * person, corresponds with what is recollected ofG. VanHoosen ; and their striking coinci¬ dences of conduct seem to indenufy tbem. Both were characterised by a remarkable propensity to deceive the public, by an osten¬ tatious display of religion. Van hoosen, on his arrival in this city, professed to some that he was employed in the capacity of a insinuating auuress, no m*wm« -«- "-■?", our religious conferences, where his aiieclcd zeal procured him respect and confidence. It was soon ascertained, however, that ne tould accommodate his opinions to his mis¬ taken policy; and as interest dictated, he was warmly Calvinistic, or equally hostile to tliat creed 6r religion. The same inconsistency was remarked on other subjects, and he ol- ten resorted to the most absurd falsehood with as little respect to prudence, as distin¬ guished the conduct of Bovee. This llagrant Disregard for truth was perfect]} established before bis departure from Moutica!, and it has subsequently appeared in a more striking decree. He professed connexions with an University, where he was never known, and intimacies v**ilh distinguished gentlemen, who were wholly unacquainted with his name. Ill his company was a female, and their con¬ curring account would make them man and wife,and that they were married in Novem¬ ber at No. 0, Cornhill, Boston.—But enqui¬ ry furnishes another story; that No. 9 ne¬ ver witnessed their connubial bliss ; and if any reliance may be placed on the testimo¬ ny of a servant who accompanied them, the name of the fair one is Sarah Clarke, who has an honorable husband in South America; and that Vari Hoosen during his short resi¬ dence in Boston, was known as Mr. Forbes. They arrived here at an inclement season of the year, without money, and with no oth¬ er apparel than what they wore.—An effort, was therefore - necessary" to procure them subsistence and to provide for other extremi¬ ties. With this view, he announced an His¬ torical oralion,andso great was the impos¬ ture, that many of the audience retired dis- gupted,as soon a3 the orator began his ad¬ dress. Failing in this attempt, lie endea¬ voured to ohtitiu a loan of money, and offered the respectability ofhis friends,:;sa'» undoubt¬ ed security.—Altera residence of low weeks he left Montreal, on the loth Of April, vari¬ ously indebted io the amount of two hundred dollars; and by acunning poliej he was con¬ veyed to Matilda in U. C- Where he present¬ ed his clerical character to Mr. Sawyer, a Methodic Clergyman, as a claim on his hos¬ pitality and professional sympathy. Here lie resided with favor a few days, when he passed into Hamilton,.where be preach* J to tin- inhabitantsof that village! The situation ofhis female companion will not allow him to journey fast, or to journey long ; and as he may linger for some time in that neighbour¬ hood, it will he proper for lh> Editors in Up¬ per Canada to notice this communication. It is very probable that he may desert the fe¬ male "who was under his protection, and tly to some remote corner of the United States. The said G. VanHoostn and J. D. Bovee, are about 0 feet 10 inches; have small black eyes, black hair and whiskers, walk a little stooping, profess much scholarship are of genteel appearance and an imposing address, but disguised by a cloak of religion. Since writing the above, a letter has been received from "the Rev. Mr. Whelpley of Pittsburgh, stating that Van Hoosm had in¬ troduced himself to his family, on his journey to Montreal, and had borrowed of Mr. W. a considerable sum of money, with an assu¬ rance of its repayment in one or two weeks. Two months had elapsed, and Mr. W. heard nothing from him. KINGSTON Juxz % !**&. * • The dates from Europe thiswek furnish us with very iittle additional intelligence.— Th<5 trials of the Cato Street conspirators were in the course of prosecution, as will be observed by the summary extracted from the New York Commercial Advertiser; and se¬ veral of these men had been found guilty. The Auti Ministerial papers complain of the use of informers for the conviction ol these unhappy culprits; but however ignominious the otiiceof an informer generally may be, itis probable that without the intelligence gi¬ ven in the present instance by an individual bearing that odious name, the Metropolis of the Empire would have been deluged with blood. Much uncertainty prevails respecting the intentions of tlie Queen, but notwithstanding what is stated in the letters said to be written by her, it is probahle she will accept the terms offered her. As there is unhappily no prospect of a reconciliation with her royal consort, her presence in England could nei¬ ther be pleasant to herself nor of any public utility. % K The accounts from Calcutta mention the successful issue of an expedition against the pirates in the Persian Cull', undertaken by our Government for the security of British commerce in that part of the world—and for the purpose of facilitating its future exten¬ sion. The genera] depression of trad,* In Europe, and the failure of the markets for¬ merly requiring immense supplies of British goods have impelled the British Govern¬ ment to seek out new markets for the pro¬ ducts of the manufacturing industry of the nation. The Countries bard< ring on' the Red Sea and tlie Gulf of Pvrsia, as well as the Eastern, shores of Africa, which wee once the seats of a busy commerce, present a tine field for tlie display of English activity and enterprise. With a view of reaping ail the benefits which may be derived from open¬ ing these channels of trade, the Government is securing to itself several commanding po¬ sitions, surveying the country, and destroy* ingthepirates who have long infested those seas. Sir James Kempt, Governor of Nova Sco¬ tia, sailed from Cowes for Halifax in the Phaeton frigate on the Ijstfa April. His Ex¬ cellency the Earl of Dalbomie was to leave Halt fas; for Quebec towardsthe close of May, tn the i*cw Cualie urigate. The Legislature of Nova Scotia was dis¬ solved on the 20th April. Tlie writs for a new election were returnable on the 10th July. In the Lower Province the election write were to be issued on the 6th June, and be re¬ turnable on the 55th July, excepting that for Gaspe, which is to be returnable on the 12th September. In this Province a good deal of impatience is said to prevail at tlie protracted existence of our present Parliament, The cause of its not being already dissolved,we understand fis the delay in returning from some Counties the census required under the provisions of a late act. If we are rightly informed, the e- lection generally will be warmly contested. Indeed we have heard of some pther violent expressions of the popular feeling in certain counties relative to tlie merits of particular individuals who have been put in nomina¬ tion. These are proofs not only that a seat in our House of Assembly is now highly pri¬ zed, but also that the subject is viewed in a more important light by tlie people than here¬ tofore. This attention to the merits of the candidates, together with the increase in the representation, will, we trust, introduce into the House a very respectable body of talent and information. AN EXTRAVAGANT COMPLIMENT. The Governor of Cuba commences one of his late proclamations in the following man¬ ner—u May the Constitution, and tlie King who has sworn to it, live one thousand cen¬ turies." It is stated in a New York paper that the Earl of Selkirk died in the South of France on The Gth April. ThU sad event wril probably terminate the differences which have existed between the rival fur companies of iheNorth West and Hudson's Bay. Indeed, instead of indulging their hostility to each other, it a I rio Americans, We feel assured that no apokury will be required bj nur.< dew &? the great space >f indulging their hostility to eacn oiner, n mpears necessary that they should unite, it hey wish to ureseive the most valuable por¬ tion ox the fur trade from the grasp ot the allotted to the extract from Hlackwood's Ed¬ inburgh Magazine on our late revered Sove¬ reign, when they consider the nature of the subject, the force of ttbc style, and tnc truth and dignity of this stealing sentiments which it embodies. The United States line or battle Ship late¬ ly built at New York was launched on the 30th ult. This Ship has been named the Ohio, and is said to be 18a feet in length, and of 2500 tons burthen. Underneath will be found the Res¬ olutions of tlie Com'niitee. of the Midland District Agricultural Society for the County of Hastings. These Resolutions, with the address vrhlrhprecedes them, are highly cre¬ ditable to the Secretary who introduced them as well as to (heMembers of the Committee by whom they were adopted ; and they may he considered as really important, in as much as they come from practical farmers, and from a quarter of the District which till very lately sterns to have looked with indifference if not with disapprobation upon every attempt at the establishment of an Agricultural So¬ ciety. But though the County of Hastings hasheen somewhat yowln yielding its coun¬ tenance and support to that valuable institu¬ tion, because somen I theoriginal regulations were not at first so well adapted to the local situation of the different Counties as they might have been, that County has more than atoned for its former apparent negligence, by the frank and spirited manner with which its Committee is now proceeding to carry in¬ to effect the great objects of the Society.— Toon the whole we think the Resolutions of the Committee of tJiC <'ounty of Hastings justly entitled to the attentive con ideration of the Committees of the other Counties within this District, and we hope soon to ^ee llum following the laudable example which has been set before ihem. Bellv'dle, May 29, 1820. Puriuant to notice, the Committee for the County of llallings, of the Midland Diftrid Agricultural Society, met at the Houfe of Mr. Rofwell Leavens, attended by John W. Meyers, Efquhe, one of the Vice Ptefidentsof laid Society, who, be¬ ing called to the Chair, and Sir. Robert Smith, chofen Secretary, the bwfin^fs of the meeting commenced by the Secretary's reading the Rules and Regulations of faid Society, as amended at the late general meeting at Kingftun, in April laft.—The following addrefs v^as alfo prefented, and read by the Secretary ;— Mr. Chairman and Gentlemen, In propofing the prefent meet¬ ing, I was aftua'ed by a deiire, that this V-oiT.rri.net fnoua give to the other rhem- bers of the'Society, a: \ the public in ge¬ neral, the earlieft evidence of their anxious wifhesto promote tht laudable purpofes of the inflitution to vhich they hate the honor of belonging. At the firft eflabithmcnt of the Mid land Dillri6t Agricuhual Society, it could fcarcely be fuppofed tiat eGery regulation neceffjiy to make it jenerally acceptable tu the inhabitants ot the Diftricl, could be contemplated and provided fur.—Ao experiment was firft tc be made, and vari¬ ed in its application as tircumilances might require—hence, the lules of the Society which were formed at the eflablifhment of it. were in fame refpeis of fuch a nature, as nut to be producitiv; of the good effefts intended.—The Towi gf Kingfton, and Adolphuftown, the oily two places in the Diftrift, where fairs vere propofed to be held, being remote f'om the rcfidence of many of our beft farners. the trouble of attending ihefe fairs was confidered too great to be comp«?nfa'.»d by any probable premium, that might ^e received ; there¬ fore, much inrtifferenc*, and even averfion, has been (hewn by n^ny towards giving any encouragement to the tuft I tut ton.— The fame realons haver \\\ feveral intlnnces prevented the former Committees for Townihips, making ^ny exertions in en¬ deavoring to raife funds for its fupport— the first and material effort.—At the late General Meeting of rhe Society held at the Town of Kingftoi. jn April laft, thofc difficulties and object ons were obviated by an amendment of -he Rules of faid So¬ ciety, which are r»ov placed upon the footing I have deta.ed to you by their perufal at this time, «Howiug to the pop- ulation of each Couity, in the event of railing the fum of twinty.five pounds, the privilege of a public fajr within themfelves, to be held at fuch place in the County, as may he d?zcrrr.:z?d .;^%am ** »*W gwv«*ti3 meeting of the Society. Our firft objeft, therefore, fhould be to poffefs ourfelves of the means reqirifite to make all the other advantages of the inltitution more eafy of attainment. The fum of twenty-five pounds. I truft, will not be found hard to procure in fupport of a caufe fo worthy Our attention as the prefent, and fo pro¬ ductive of benefit to the intereft of the farmer by holding forth a reward, and in it, an honorable diftinftion to all thofe who may excel in agricultural produftions. And, let it not be underftood, that in our endeavours 10 raife a fund, we fhould con¬ fine ourfelves to the propofed fum ; No ! rather let us endeavour to double the a- mount if pofiible, for the more abundant the means, the more ample will be the re¬ ward to the fuccefsful prize feeker, and the gift will return to the hands of the lib¬ eral donor with incieafed intereft. Much benefit may reafonably be anticipated as likely to refult to this Diftrift, from the eftabliihment of an Agricultural Society, whether thefe anticipations will be reali¬ zed or not, depends upon the a&ive co¬ operation of the community in general, end upon ourfelves as a part of the num¬ ber whofe particular duiy it is to promote that benefit.—Although the Diftrift can at prefent boaft of many very good far¬ mers, arid forne of thofe competing the prefent meeting defervedly claim that cha ra&er,fti!l a wide field lies open for im¬ provement, and the objeft of an Agricul¬ tural Society i< to lead to it by exciting a fpirit of cntcrprife and competition a mongft them. They require to be taught to diverfify their labour*, and adapt them to the easfcXftCiCI of the times, and the prefent period teaches an inflru&ive leffon. The farmers in this part of the Province have generally directed their attention to the culture of wheat, as chcir ftaple com¬ modity ; depending upon it as the article of principal refource, and tlie high prices which flour has obtained for many years paft, particularly during the late war, has juftified the practice—but, at the prefent time, when the markets are glutted with that article, and cafh cannot be obtained for it at fcarcely any price, and while a ge¬ neral cry of embarraffment is heard in the country, they arc (hewn the neceffity of turning their attention to other produftions more in demand, and for which cafh may be obtained.—As the prelent feafon has opened, every profpeft is prefented of ve¬ ry abundant crops of wheat at the enfu- itlg harveft, and unlefa forr.e material change fhould take place in the political (late of the world, the farmer has no rea- fon to expert a better maiket for his flour next year, than he finds at prefent.—Eve¬ ry larmer, whofe lauds are adapted to the purpofes of rearing dock, fhould pay par- ticular,attention to that branch of his pro- feffion.—In addition to the profits which the grazier realises in the growth uf Stock, and in the different produ&iona of the Dairy—the article of Beef generally com¬ mands a high price in our markets, and io always in demand to an extent far exceed¬ ing any fupply which this part of the Province has hitherto furnifhed. As a proof cf this remark, I refer you to the circumftance of a drove of cattle to the number of one hundred, having been dri¬ ven from the Diftridtot Niagara tu Kings¬ ton, laft fall, where they were, no doubt, well fold to the Government Contraftora. —Thefe la&s, while they are in a meafure reproachful to the farmers uf this Diftrift, fhould operate as a powerful incentive to exertion, and ingenuous application to their feveral duties, and not allow benefits to be wrefted from them by ftrangers which they have in their power to fecure by pro¬ per fkill and indufti y. After which the following Refolutions were fubmitted by the Secretary, and ap¬ proved by the meeting :— 1. Refohcd—That this meeting enter¬ tain a juft fenfe of the material benefits likely to refult to this Diftrid, from the ctlablilhmcnt of an Agricultural Society. 2. Refulvej—That theyhighly approve of the amendment of the Rules and Regu¬ lations of faid Society, made at the laft General Meeting in the Town of Kings¬ ton. 3. Refohcd—That the Membera of the Committee of faid Society, (for this Coun¬ ty) are determined to ufe their utmoft ex¬ ertions in promoting the beneficial defigns of the Inltitution. 4.

Refohcd—That the Secretary of this Meeting be requelted, and he is hereby anthoiifed, to draw up faid Subfcription Lifts, and to tranfmit them as foon as pos¬ sible to each Member of this meeting. 6. Refohcd—That this meeting ad¬ journ to meet again on the firft Monday in September next, for the purpofe of ascer¬ taining the amount of Subscriptions pro¬ cured by each Member up to that time, and to report accordingly. 7. Refohcd—That the proceedings of this Meeting be inferted in the Newfpa- pcrs of this Diftiift- The thanks of the Meeting were then voted to John W. Meyers, Efquire, for his able fupport in the Chair.
