And ' i- kin an.un.n of the soul! It is , wi.tn tt.e ardor of youth has gone by, and the strength of middle 'age begins to worn. It is when the intellectual harvest is catheit d in, nnd ihe mind no hw-ger looks forward to new 4tn-. and fresh acquisitions. It is when t tourdless plans, whether for private ndvuncement or public Iwnefit. have each in turn, had its day of experiment when dcleat lias left behind it, notour age to resume or preserve; or when success has glutted to satiety, or when nothing further is to be accomplished. Especially is it when a mid summer of of unsparing toil, not for the arcom plishment of seltish cuds, hut for the intellectual elevation and moral ad vancement of mankind, is succeeded by the cold frost of neglect, and bitter penury. I hen it is, that the soul mourns in lonelyness, and instead of the soft failing Eephyrs that once revelled in its verdure, it is doomed to encounter the tempest that is scattering its labors in the btorm ol oblivion. The excitement in Upper Canada, against the provincial Avsemhly, for their arbitrary course towards Mr. Mackenzie, continues to increase, nnd the assembly remains obstinate. Since his last expulsion, on the same ground of ohjcclitm as the four preceding, every motion favorable to his right to a seat has been voted down. Some ofthe people of his district the county of York; indignant at the persevering ex-' elusion of their representative, have copied some of the temper ofthe English on the llcform Question, determined to

pay no taxes. This they effect peaceablf, by refusing to appoint a colfector or nssesscr of taxes. In the townslltp oi

Ivmg, at the regular meeting oti the bilult the determination to appoint the. taxing officers was universal. One man dissented, but he subsequently joined in the address to Mr. Makenzie. The matter; -if followed up in this spirit, must produce serious consequences. It U suggested that the United States bank, on thi e&piration of its charier, should resolve itself into a p u tnership rid go on without n charter, 'i'lie well known solvency of the institution renders a charter almost unnecessary; and it could continue to tiansact business hy means of a power of attorney give to its president, with almost as much security and ease as nt present.
