There is one important Fact in relation to the state of Upper Canada, to which we wish to call the attention ol the public: There arc in that Province, neither French laws, French language, nor French descendants to which it has been attempted falsely Sc mischievously to ascribe the difficulties in Lower Canada, with a manifest tendency to range the inhab hauls under the banners of national ptcjudices conquerors and conquered Evcty thing in Upper Canada is what the insti umcots of dis cord here, call English ; yet the variance be tween the Representative Branch and the Executive is assuming a more determined character than in Lower Canada It is to the natural opposition of the mass of the population to a bad system of administration rendered intolerable by the occasional extravagances of certain colonial administration, that is to be ascribed the difficulties in both Provinces, which have operated so much to the injury of their peace and welfare. With the removal of the cause we shall soon sec the cessation of the effect.

.1 Turkish JKichrlon A few days since a brave and handsome Pacha having gained important virtoties over some rebel tribes, the Sultan conferred on him higher honors, nnd even gave him hisd-mghtcr in marriage. When the bride arrived, the fust question she asked her intended wns, How many ladies have you V The Pacha replied that he had no wives ; lh:it he had reserved all his affection and regard for her, thinking her alone worthy of them. "Oh," said the princes, turning up her nose, u who ever heard of such a shabby fellow ! A man with only one wife 1 t won't marry you unlcas you take the full number " Incrcditablc as the anecdote appears, Mr Buckingham states it as an absolute f ict, and said that he was well acquainted with the Pacha. "Tir thing (hit's right.' The mechanics of Carlisle, Pa. feeling themselves oppress cd in conccqucnce ol the merchants of that place importing articles that the mechanics
manufactured, to the injury of this respecta
hie class, and the great depression of business have laielv held a meeting at which they adooted a spirited preamble and resolutions, in which they expressed a wish t-i support the merchants on rcciproc.il ground?, and appointed a committee to wait upon the merchants rnd ascertain whether they were disposed to encourage or continue to oppose the mechanic interest The merchants with great unanimity addressed a note to the mechanics pledging themselves to import no aiticlo that could be furnished by them as cheap as it could he obtained else w here. In mors pV'.rv s than CuUste have the Merchants imported articles to the injuiy of the mechanic. At tides bought up at auction, in Icrior both in mateiial and workmanship, benight on ad sold here bv the merchant some oTi'rr than 'he mechanics can manufacture, docs not argue that it is advantageous to the community. Ber.idca the retaining o' the precious metals among us, and the encouragement of our mechanics, it will be much cheaper in the issue for us to purchase of our h vnc mechanics, at a li-'i :g profit, ar tides good and substantial, than to purchase from the Mer hant at a f'riv cen's less, articles inferior and wnrhles. manufactured for xr.le only The fact is.thr merchant is dependent entirely on the farmer and mechanic for sup port, and it is for them to sav whether they will maintain their own interests or the interests of ethers." Politics of Vf:f:cr dzvada The Quebec fiaz'Mte spoaki;v:r of the la'c discussion of
Canada affairs in the British House of Comm ins on the laih of June, says that the ad option of the measipcs recommended in the rep"rt of the Canada Committee, published sooie timo since, would satisly the people of Upper Canada. That report recommended' some important changes in the administration (f the Colonics, an I it is said that they may h'2 ncvrly a'd effected by the ministry without recourse to Parliament.
