Rh The afternoon in softened glory

Bathed each green swell and waving tree,

And the broad park spread before me

Stretched towards the boundless sea.

And there I stood when he had left me,

With ashy cheek and tearless eye,

Watching the ship whose sail bereft me

Of life and hope, and love and joy.

It past: that night I sought a pillow

Of sleepless woe and grieving lone;

My soul still bounded o'er the billow,

And mourned a love for ever flown.

Yet smiling bright in recollection

One blissful hour returns to me;

The letter told of firm affection,

Of safe deliverance from the sea.

But not another; fearing, hoping,

Spring, winter, harvest glided o'er;

And time at length brought power for coping

With thoughts I could not once endure.

And I would seek in summer evening

The place that saw our last farewell,

And there a chain of visions weaving,

I'd linger till the curfew bell.

ELLWOOD, Thomas, English Quaker: b. Crowell, near Thame, Oxfordshire, 1639; d. Amersham, 1 March 1714. About 1660 he was induced to join the Society of Friends, and subsequently became reader to Milton, with whom he improved himself in the learned languages, but was soon obliged to quit London on account of his health. In the year 1665 he procured a lodging for Milton at Chalfont, Bucks, and was the occasion of his writing ‘Paradise Regained’ by the following observation made on rereading the ‘Paradise Lost’ which the poet had lent him to read in manuscript: “Thou hast said much of paradise lost, but what hast thou to say of paradise found?” In 1705 he published the first part of ‘Sacred History, or the Historical Parts of the Old Testament’; and in 1709 ‘Sacred History, etc., of the New Testament.’ His other works are numerous; among them ‘Davideis, the Life of David, King of Israel,’ a poem, which is more distinguished for piety than poetry. His life, written by himself, and published the year after his death, affords many interesting particulars of the history of his sect.

The Encyclopedia Americana (1920)/Elm

ELM, Ulmus, a genus of trees and a few shrubs of the family Ulmaceæ. The species, of which about 20 are known, are natives of the North Temperate zone and the southern portions of the Arctic zone. Their southern limits seem to be the Himalayas in Asia and the mountains of southern Mexico. None are natives of the Pacific slope of North America. They are characterized by short-petioled, alternate, rough, usually deciduous leaves with serrate edges; axillary racemes of perfect, apetalous flowers which appear in early spring before or with the leaves; and compressed, winged, dry fruits. Many of the species are of wide economic importance. Their hard, heavy, tough, pliable wood is largely used in the manufacture of barrels, agricultural implements, boats, wagon wheels, buildings, etc., and for fuel. The inner bark of some species furnishes an article of food, and that of others a tough

bast fibre used for cordage and cloth making. The outer bark of some is used in dyeing and sugar refining. Various parts of several species were formerly popular remedies employed in medicine, but except in domestic and local practice are rarely prescribed. Most of the species are highly valued as ornamental trees in street and park planting, those specially popular being the straight-trunked, tall-growing, vase-formed species, which quickly over-arch the streets and cast an abundant shade. Many cultivated varieties of fantastic form, color of foliage, or habit of growth are also planted as curiosities.

The best known American species is the white, water, or American elm (U. americana), which grows in rich moist woods, especially on the shores of streams, from Newfoundland to Florida and westward to the eastern side of the Rocky Mountains. It is a tall tree, often attaining a height of 120 feet when growing in the forest, and with a wide-spreading, less lofty top when growing in the open, where it may be seen in several different forms, popularly known as vase, plume, oak-tree, etc., according to the arrangement of the branches. Some specimens of each one develop numerous twiggy growths upon the trunk and main branches, which are thus rendered very attractive because of their feathery appearance. The most common form is the vase, in which the main branches develop at about 20 feet or more, and at their bases gradually, and toward their extremities widely diverge. This is probably the most popular street form in America. Another well-known American species is the slippery or red elm (U. fulva), which attains a naght of 70 feet in rich soils and is found from Quebec to Florida and westward to Texas and the Dakotas. It is called red because the bud scales are reddish and conspicuous when unfolding in spring; and it is called slippery because of its mucilaginous inner bark. Its wood is less valued than that of the Elnglish elm, but more than that of the white elm. The cork or rock elm (U. racemosa), which grows on river banks from New England to Nebraska and as far south as Kentucky and Tennessee, attains a height of 100 feet and is noted for the corky developments resembling wings on the smaller branches. Its wood is specially valued for its great durability, strength, pliability and toughness. Another species with corky, winged branches is the wahoo or winged elm (U. alata), which ranses from Virginia to Florida and westward to Texas and Illinois. It rarely exceeds 70 teet in height, is very attractive in habit, and is planted for ornament in the South, but not in the North, as it is not sufficiently hardy for the rigors of winter.

The most noted European species is the English elm (U. campestris), which ranges through middle and southern Europe, northern Africa, and eastward to Japan. It reaches 100 feet in height and has a rather round-topped or open head, on account of its spreading branches. It is frequently planted for ornament at home and abroad, and in America is valued because its foliage continues green for several weeks after that of the white elm. It has several distinct varieties, which are sometimes considered as distinct species, and of which there are a large number of horticultural varieties. The next most important European species is probably the Scotch or wych elm (U. scabra),

which has much the same range as the preceding species, like which it attains a height of about 100 feet. It is a variable species with many cultivated varieties, one of the best-known of which is the Camperdown elm, which has long, pendulous branches, on account of which the tree is frequently planted as a curiosity in parks and gardens. The Chinese elm (U. parvifolia) is a semi-evergreen shrub or small tree, a native of eastern Asia, which has proved hardy in America as far north as Massachusetts.

Elms are readily propagated from seed which ripens in late spring or early summer and should be sown at once. The seedlings are easily managed, both as to cultivation, transplanting and pruning. The trees do best in rich soil, especially if moist. The choice varieties are generally grafted. The trees, especially of the American or white elm, are specially liable to the attacks of certain insects and diseases, which often defoliate them. Tbc latter may be kept in check by the timely and proper application of a standard fungicide (q.v.).

The name elm is also given to various unrelated trees, the best-known of which are probably the following: Water elm (Planera aquatica); Spanish elm or Bois-de-Chypre (Cordia gerascanthus). Several Australian trees are also known as elms, especially Duboisia myoporoides and Aphananthe philippinensis, each of which is valued for its timber.

The Encyclopedia Americana (1920)/Elm, Slippery

ELM, Slippery, in medicine, the bark of Ulmus fulva, is widely used as a demulcent. It is probable that the ancient Indian inhabitants of the country introduced it into medicine. Slippery elm bark is noted for the large amount of mucilage which it contains, thus rendering it a pleasing demulcent for sore throat, diarhœa, dysentery, and inflammation of the intestinal tract in general.

The Encyclopedia Americana (1920)/Elm-Insects

ELM-INSECTS. Few ornamental trees are more subject to the attacks of insects than are the elms, and especially the American elm. The European species are, however, attractive to the European insects, of which many have been brought over unintentionally, and have spread remarkably because of the absence of their enemies. One of the most notable is the plant-louse known as Colopha ulmicola, which produces the cockscomb galls upon the foliage. It is rarely very troublesome, and has usually done its damage before it can be attacked. Kerosene emulsion, if applied in time, will prove effective. (See ). A borer (Saperda tridentata) is sometimes troublesome, but there seems to be no satisfactory way to control it, though it has been suggested that the trunk should he washed with lime or soft soap during June and July. Most of the other insects that attack the elms are beetles, their larvæ, or the caterpillars of various moths. These all bite their food, and hence may be attacked with arsenites or other stomach poisons sprayed upon the foliage. Among these insects are the four-horned sphinx-moth (Ceratomia amyntor or quadricornis), a green caterpillar with four little horns near the head and the long anal horn characteristic of the sphinx-moth. The bag-worm (Thyridopteryx ephemeræformis), the gypsy-moth (Ocneria dispar), the tussock-moth (Notolophus or Orgyria leucostigma),

and several other general feeders are frequently troublesome. But the most important leaf-eating enemy of the elm is the elm-leaf beetle (Galeruca xanthomelæna), a reddish-yellow, two-striped European insect which appears and eats the leaves in spring. The bottle-shaped yellow eggs are laid in rows on the under sides of the leaves, and the hairy, black-spotted, yellow larvæ eat circular holes between the leaf-veins. Spraying with arsenites is effective, but where more than one brood is produced the sprayings must be repeated frequently throughout the summer. Consult Marlatt, ‘Elm Leaf Beetle,’ Circular 8, Division of Entomology, United States Department of Agriculture (Washington 1895).

ELMAN, Mischa, Jewish violinist: b. Talnoje, Russia, 1892. He showed such remarkable talent that at the age of six he was taken by his father to Odesaa and there studied under competent masters for four years. He met Leopold Auer in 1902 and so impressed the latter that he secured the permission of the Tsar for Elman's admission to the Imperial Conservatory at Saint Petersburg, hitherto closed to members of the Jewish race. Elman spent two years there under Auer and at his début in 1904 he was at once acclaimed as an artist of first rank. He toured Germany and everywhere scored a triumphant success. He visited the United States in 1906 and again in 1911, 1912, 1913 and 1914, being eminently successful on every occasion. On the violin he is now recognized as a veritable genius.

 Moreover, as in rhetorical, so also in elenchtic disputation, we must investigate contrarieties in a similar manner, either (such as are contrary) to what is said by him, or to what he acknowledges well said or done, or to those that seem to be such, or to similars, or to most, or to all. And as also respondents frequently, when they are confuted, assert that what they seem to be confuted in has a two-fold meaning; so questionists must use this mode against objectors, so that if it happens in one way, but not in another, (they say) they admit it only thus, as Cleophon does in his Mandrobulus. It is also necessary, by withdrawing from the argument, to cut off the remaining parts of the attacks, and for the respondent, if he foresees, to anticipate in objection and speaking. Sometimes also, we must attack something different to the assertion, assuming that, if a person has it not in his power to attack the position; which Lycophron did, when the thing proposed was an encomium on the lyre. Against those indeed who require arguments to be advanced against a certain thing, (since it seems necessary to assign a cause, but certain things being mentioned, more caution can be used,) it must be said that it universally happens in elenchi, that we assert contradiction, because we deny what the arguer asserted, but what he denied we assert; but (we must not say that we begin to prove one part of the contradiction); for instance, that there is the same

 science of contraries, or that there is not the same. But it is not proper to question the conclusion after the manner of a proposition, since some things are not to be questioned, but to be employed as if acknowledged.

Chapter 16
what places then questions are, and how we must make them in contentious exercises, has been shown; but concerning reply, and how it is proper to solve, and what, and for what use such arguments are profitable, must be stated in the next place.

They are useful then to philosophy for two causes; first, indeed, as being for the most part from diction, they enable us to know in a better manner, in how many ways each thing is predicated, and what kind happen similarly, and what differently, both in things and in names. Secondly, (they contribute) to inquiries by oneself, for he who is easily deceived by a paralogism by another, and does not perceive this, may also himself frequently experience the same thing from himself. Thirdly, in the remaining place, (they tend) still more to fame from appearing to be exercised about all things, and not to be unskilful in any thing; for that he who engages in disputation should blame the arguments (of another), without being able to distinguish any thing about their badness, produces a suspicion of apparent indignation, not on account of the truth, but on account of unskilfulness.

How therefore respondents should oppose such arguments is evident, since we have before rightly

 shown from what, paralogisms arise, and have sufficiently exposed impostures in interrogation. It is not the same thing however assuming an argument to see and to solve its futility, and to be able quickly to oppose an interrogator, for what we know we are often ignorant of, when it is transposed. Moreover, as in other things, the quicker and the slower increase by exercise, so is it also with arguments; hence, if a thing is evident to us, but we have not meditated upon it, we are frequently deficient in it on certain occasions. Sometimes indeed it happens as in diagrams, for having analyzed them, we sometimes are unable to reconstruct them; thus also in elenchi, knowing the cause of the connexion of the argument, we are unable to dissolve the argument.

Chapter 17
then, as we say, we ought sometimes to prefer to syllogize probably, rather than truly, thus also we must solve sometimes rather probably than according to truth, for in short, we must contend with contentious men, not as if they were confuting, but as appearing to do so, since we do not say that they conclude syllogistically, so that we must direct ourselves to their not appearing. For if an elenchus is a

 contradiction not equivocal, from certain (assumptions), there will be no necessity of distinguishing against things ambiguous and equivocation, for he does not make a syllogism. Still we must make a division, for no other reason than because the conclusion appears to have the form of elenchus. Wherefore we must be cautious not of being confuted, but of seeming to be so, since ambiguous interrogations and those which are from equivocation, and other such deceptions, both obscure the true elenchus, and render it dubious whether a person is confuted by an elenchus or not. For since it is possible at the end, when a conclusion is made (for the respondent) to say that that he has denied, (viz. the interrogator) not what the respondent affirmed, but equivocally, even if he happens especially to tend to the same point, it is doubtful whether he is confuted by an elenchus, for it is dubious whether he now asserts the truth. If on the otber hand, dividing, he questions the equivocal or the ambiguous, the elenchus will not be obscure, and what the contentious less require now than formerly, viz. that the person questioned should answer yes or no, should occur. Nevertheless, now because querists do not question well, it is necessary that the person questioned should add something to his answer, correcting the faultiness of the proposition, since if he, the querist, disanguishes sufficiently, the respondent must necessarily say yes or no.

If, indeed, any one should suppose that to be an elenchus, which is according to equivocation, it will be impossible for the respondent in any way to avoid confutation by an elenchus, for in visible things it is necessary to deny the name which he affirms, and to affirm what he denied. For as some correct there is no benefit, for they say that Coriscus is not musical and unmusical, but that this Coriscus is musical, and

 Draft letter from H.M.Ambassador to the Secretary of State of the United States.

Dear Mr. Secretary,

I am writing with reference to my note of to-day regarding my Government's offer of certain naval and air facilities to the United States Government to inform you that I have been authorised in this connexion to draw your attention to and to confirm on behalf of the Prime Minister certain statements made by him in the House of Commons on June 4th and August 20th.

On June 4th Mr. Churchill said:

 * "We shall never surrender and even if, which I do not for a moment believe, this land or a large part of it were subjugated and starving, then our Empire beyond the seas, armed and guarded by the British Fleet, will carry on the struggle until in God's good time the New World, with all its power and might, sets forth to the liberation and rescue of the Old."

On August 20th Mr. Churchill said:

 * "In our own case, if we had been put in the terrible position of France - now happily impossible, although it would have been the duty of all war leaders to fight on here to the end - it would also have been their duty, as I indicated in my speech of June 4th, to provide as far as possible for the naval security of Canada and our Dominions and to make sure they had the means to carry on the struggle from beyond the oceans."

Yet may they not without some cautious care Take up their inn content upon the ground. First it behoves to clear a circle there, And trample down the grass and plantage round, Where many a deadly reptile might be found, Whom with its bright and comfortable heat The flame would else allure: such plagues abound In these thick woods, and therefore must they beat The earth, and trample well the herbs beneath their feet.

And now they heap dry reeds and broken wood; The spark is struck, the crackling faggots blaze, And cheer that unaccustomed solitude. Soon have they made their frugal meal of maize; In grateful adoration then they raise The evening hymn. How solemn in the wild That sweet accordant strain wherewith they praise The Queen of Angels, merciful and mild: Hail, holiest Mary! Maid, and Mother undefiled.

Blame as thou mayest the Papist's erring creed, But not their salutary rite of even! The prayers that from a pious soul proceed, Tho' misdirected, reach the ear of Heaven. Us unto whom a purer faith is given, As our best birthright it behoves to hold The precious charge. But, oh, beware the leaven Which makes the heart of charity grow cold! We own one Shepherd, we shall be at last one fold.

Thinkest thou the little company who here Pour forth their hymn devout at close of day, Feel it no aid that those who hold them dear, At the same hour the self-same homage pay, Commending them to Heaven when far away? That the sweet bells are heard in solemn chime Thro' all the happy towns of Paraguay, Where now their brethren in one point of time Join in the general prayer, with sympathy sublime?

That to the glorious Mother of their Lord Whole Christendom that hour its homage pays? From court and cottage that with one accord Ascends the universal strain of praise? Amid the crouded city's restless ways, One reverential thought pervades the throng; The traveller on his lonely road obeys The sacred hour, and as he fares along, In spirit hears and joins his household's even-song.

What if they think that every prayer enroll'd Shall one day in their good account appear; That guardian Angels hover round and fold Their wings in adoration while they hear; Ministrant Spirits thro' the ethereal sphere Waft it with joy, and to the grateful theme Well pleased, the Mighty Mother bends her ear? A vain delusion this we rightly deem: Yet what they feel is not a mere illusive dream.

That prayer perform'd, around the fire reclined Beneath the leafy canopy they lay Their limbs: the Indians soon to sleep resign'd; And the good Father with that toilsome day Fatigued, full fain to sleep,—if sleep he may, Whom all tormenting insects there assail; More to be dreaded these than beasts of prey Against whom strength may cope, or skill prevail, But art of man against these enemies must fail.

Patience itself that should the sovereign cure For ills that touch ourselves alone, supply, Lends little aid to one who must endure This plague: the small tormentors fill the sky, And swarm about their prey: there he must lie And suffer while the hours of darkness wear; At times he utters with a deep drawn sigh Some name adored, in accents of despair Breathed sorrowfully forth, half murmur and half prayer.

Welcome to him the earliest gleam of light; Welcome to him the earliest sound of day; That from the sufferings of that weary night Released, he may resume his willing way, Well pleased again the perils to essay Of that drear wilderness, with hope renew'd; Success will all his labours overpay: A quest like his is cheerfully pursued; The heart is happy still that is intent on good.

And now where Empalado's waters creep Through low and level shores of woodland wide, They come; prepared to cross the sluggish deep, An ill-shaped coracle of hardest hide, Ruder than ever Cambrian fisher plied Where Towey and the salt sea-waters meet, The Indians' launch; they steady it and guide, Winning their way with arms and practised feet, While in the tottering boat the Father keeps his seat.

For three long summer days on every side They search in vain the sylvan solitude. The fourth a human footstep is espied, And through the mazes of the pathless wood With hound-like skill and hawk-like eye pursued; For keen upon their pious quest are they As e'er were hunters on the track of blood. Where softer ground or trodden herbs betray The slightest mark of man, they there explore the way.

More cautious when more certain of the trace In silence they proceed; not like a crew Of jovial hunters, who the joyous chace With hound and horn in open field pursue, Cheering their way with jubilant halloo, And hurrying forward to their spoil desired, The panting game before them, full in view: Humaner thoughts this little band inspired, Yet with a hope as high their gentle hearts were fired.

Nor is their virtuous hope devoid of fear; The perils of that enterprize they know; Some savage horde may have its fastness here, A race to whom a stranger is a foe; Who not for friendly words, nor proffer'd show Of gifts, will peace or parley entertain. If by such hands their blameless blood should flow To serve the Lamb who for their sins was slain, Blessed indeed their lot, for so to die is gain!

Them thus pursuing where the track may lead, A human voice arrests upon their way. They stop, and thither whence the sounds proceed, All eyes are turn'd in wonder,—not dismay, For sure such sounds might charm all fear away. No nightingale whose brooding mate is nigh, From some sequester'd bower at close of day, No lark rejoicing in the orient sky Ever pour'd forth so wild a strain of melody.

The voice which through the ringing forest floats Is one which having ne'er been taught the skill Of marshaling sweet words to sweeter notes, Utters all unpremeditate, at will, A modulated sequence loud and shrill Of inarticulate and long-breathed sound, Varying its tones with rise and fall and trill, Till all the solitary woods around With that far-piercing power of melody resound.

In mute astonishment attent to hear, As if by some enchantment held, they stood, With bending head, fix'd eye, and eager ear, And hand upraised in warning attitude To check all speech or step that might intrude On that sweet strain. Them leaving thus spell-bound, A little way alone into the wood The Father gently moved toward the sound, Treading with quiet feet upon the grassy ground.

Anon advancing thus the trees between, He saw beside her bower the songstress wild, Not distant far, himself the while unseen. Mooma it was, that happy maiden mild, Who in the sunshine, like a careless child Of nature, in her joy was caroling. A heavier heart than his it had beguiled So to have heard so fair a creature sing The strains which she had learnt from all sweet birds of spring.

For these had been her teachers, these alone; And she in many an emulous essay, At length into a descant of her own Had blended all their notes, a wild display Of sounds in rich irregular array; And now as blithe as bird in vernal bower, Pour'd in full flow the unexpressive lay, Rejoicing in her consciousness of power, But in the inborn sense of harmony yet more.

In joy had she begun the ambitious song, With rapid interchange of sink and swell; And sometimes high the note was raised, and long Produced, with shake and effort sensible, As if the voice exulted there to dwell; But when she could no more that pitch sustain, So thrillingly attuned the cadence fell, That with the music of its dying strain She moved herself to tears of pleasurable pain.

It may be deem'd some dim presage possess'd The virgin's soul; that some mysterious sense Of change to come, upon her mind impress'd, Had then call'd forth, ere she departed thence, A requiem to their days of innocence. For what thou losest in thy native shade There is one change alone that may compense, O Mooma, innocent and simple maid, Only one change, and it will not be long delay'd!

When now the Father issued from the wood Into that little glade in open sight, Like one entranced, beholding him, she stood; Yet had she more of wonder than affright, Yet less of wonder than of dread delight, When thus the actual vision came in view; For instantly the maiden read aright Wherefore he came; his garb and beard she knew; All that her mother heard had then indeed been true.

Nor was the Father filled with less surprize; He too strange fancies well might entertain, When this so fair a creature met his eyes. He might have thought her not of mortal strain; Rather, as bards of yore were wont to feign, A nymph divine of Mondai's secret stream; Or haply of Diana's woodland train: For in her beauty Mooma such might seem, Being less a child of earth than like a poet's dream.

No art of barbarous ornament had scarr'd And stain'd her virgin limbs, or 'filed her face: Nor ever yet had evil passion marr'd In her sweet countenance the natural grace Of innocence and youth; nor was there trace Of sorrow, or of hardening want and care. Strange was it in this wild and savage place, Which seem'd to be for beasts a fitting lair, Thus to behold a maid so gentle and so fair.

Across her shoulders was a hammock flung, By night it was the maiden's bed, by day Her only garment. Round her as it hung, In short unequal folds of loose array, The open meshes, when she moves, display Her form. She stood with fix'd and wondering eyes, And trembling like a leaf upon the spray, Even for excess of joy, with eager cries She call'd her mother forth to share that glad surprize.

At that unwonted call with quickened pace The matron hurried thither, half in fear. How strange to Monnema a stranger's face! How strange it was a stranger's voice to hear, How strangely to her disaccustomed ear Came even the accents of her native tongue! But when she saw her countrymen appear, Tears for that unexpected blessing sprung, And once again she felt as if her heart were young.

Soon was her melancholy story told, And glad consent unto that Father good Was given, that they to join his happy fold Would leave with him their forest solitude. Why comes not now Yeruti from the wood? Why tarrieth he so late this blessed day? They long to see their joy in his renew'd, And look impatiently toward his way, And think they hear his step, and chide his long delay.

He comes at length, a happy man, to find His only dream of hope fulfill'd at last. The sunshine of his all-believing mind There is no doubt or fear to overcast; No chilling forethought checks his bliss; the past Leaves no regret for him, and all to come Is change and wonder and delight. How fast Hath busy fancy conjured up a sum Of joys unknown, whereof the expectance makes him dumb!

O happy day, the Messenger of Heaven Hath found them in their lonely dwelling place! O happy day, to them it would be given To share in that Eternal Mother's grace, And one day see in heaven her glorious face Where Angels round her mercy-throne adore! Now shall they mingle with the human race, Sequester'd from their fellow kind no more; O joy of joys supreme! O bliss for them in store!

FREMANTLE QUARTER SESSIONS. Tuesday, Jnly 1st, 1834. BEFORE the Hon. W. H. Mackie, Esq., Chairman, the Rev. J. ii. Wittenoom, G. Leake, and R. Mc Bride Brown, Esquirea, J. s P. Ambrose, stood charged with stealing three rat-tail files fr«m Mr. Solomon's shop at Perth. It was, fully proved by the evidence of Fraser, the shopman, and Charles Bourne, a person who was in the shop at the time, that Ambrose took the files off the counter. The prisoner did not deny having taking the files, but stated in his defence, that he had a running account at Mr. Solomon's, and took them in a joke, considering that when it was found out he had them, they would be charged to him. J. R. Lacy and George Smith were called by the prisoner to prove that he was in liquor that evening ; and Lacy deposed to his frequently repeating such practical jokes, when under the, excitement of liquor. Lawrence Welch, who had been in the habit of seeing Ambrose at Mr. Solomon's shop, and1 was present on the evening in question, stated that he seemed perfectly sober, and competent to transact business. J. Morgan, Esq., who had known and employed the prisoner for eight or nine months, stated that he had, up to the present time, regarded him as an honest man, and that was his general character he knew that a very-little drink would make him muddle headed. ' Verdict-Guilty. Sentence, on« monthi' imprisonment with hard labour. ? w ....?* n », » r ' The Jury strongly recommended the prisoner to mercy, on the ground of character. Studsor, was charged with stealing a bag of scupper nails, and two jackets, the property of the King, found on his premises. The prisoner was some time ago in the employment of J. Morgan, Esq., Government Store Keeper, and accounted for the possession of the property in the following manner :- Half the nails, he said, were given to him by Samid Ali (Mr. Morgan's servant), and the other half he took home with him out of the sweepings of the store. Thejackets were thrown aside at a survey, as rubbish, and he took them ako, on the autho rity of Samid Ali. Marmaduke Hutton corrobo rated the prisoner's statement regarding the jackets, but believed that in the heap of condemn ed jackets there were none so perfect as thobe produced in court ; and Samid Ali deposed that the prisoner mended his shoes twice, and that he gave him the first time a handful of the nails, and the next a small paper full Verdict-Not guilty. George Smith, charged at the instance of J. R. Lacy, Mr. Leroux's foreman, with stealing a keg of paint, was acquitted. Cabioz alias William, charged with stealing a clothes' line, the property of Mr. Wood, baker at Peirh, was acquitted. Habib, was found guilty of stealing a pair of compasses, the property of Terry, the boat builderT and sentenced to three dozen lashes and three months' imprisonment with hard labour. Reedy pleaded guilty to the larceny of whaling gear, and was sentenced to six month» imprisonment with hard labour.
 * but from his (Mr. Morgan's) own observation,

THE horse ferry boat at Guildford is admirably constructed for the purpose, and although the first cost of building is considerable, the advantage of the ñrst outlay will be experienced. This is on© of the best specimens of workmanship in the Colony, and real taste and judgment have been displayed in the design. Edwards, of Perth, obtained the contract, and has done justice to it. The risk and difficulty of crossing at this ferry is now entirely removed ; you may ride into and out of tiie boat with perfect safety. For further convenience, we would suggest that the bank on the Guildford side should be lowered. Dodd, of the Clei kum Inn, has leased the right of ferry for the next twelve months at the rate of £5. per annum. THE new Commissariat Stores at Perth are rising rapidly ; the cellars are completed.

CURIOUS MODE OF NAVIGATION.-My passage from Falmouth to Barbadoeer, in the packet, was agreeably enough ; but at this island, in order to complete my voya e to La Guayra, I was transferred to one of his Majesty's mail boats, a dirty little schooner, with a cabin six feet by six, scarcely a pint of fresh water, and most untouchable provisions. These, however, were trifles. When we got out to sea,' I found that the captain of this gallant bark (which is entiusted with the conveyance of the mail from Barbadoes to! La Guayra, a voyage of about six days), never in cumbered himself with either compass or quadrant. They'have sa much experience, ofn the" current* which prevail in these fteav that they aró never at

Should I both these resTotii'Ods fait,* however, they have one in reserve which never does.

SATURDAY, JULY 5, 1834, BY the Eagle^Schoenev from 'Sydney, we have our files of the Sydney Herald, and Australian, . up to the 19th of May. They contain nothing of /particular interest or importance. The supply of wheat in the market -was but limited, and the price was daily advancing ; the last quotation is from 9s. to lOs.per bushel, âalt «butter was as high as Is. 2d. rio tfes. 4d. Potatoes, for some samples, 16s. per=cwt. Xwleihave made some few, extracts from the ahave^journals which will be lound.under the USÍA»! Jt£a4 and purpose con. ¿inning them in ourMext* A ar.poRT of another treacherous and designing attack made by the Natives on a party proceeding \ over the hills with stores appears in out presen^ number These repeated depredations call for and fully justify a severity of precedure; a system we whould be the last to advocate, but which the urgency of the case appears to render imperative. It is to be regretted that the natives could not be immediately pursued after the attack was made, and a summary example made of them. It is in the moment of excitement that their offences should be punished,-they then know the cause and feel the power of our chastisement. Captain Ellis, superintendent of native tribes, Capt. Pegus, and Mr. Norcott, with a party of military, have received, we understand, instructions to keep a constant patrol on the banks of the Su an, and across the country to the Canning; this is an arrangemofct long required, and will no doubt strike terror into the wandering savage. The system therefore of in ¡st ant punishment for an offence will come into operation, and its effects we have no doubt will soon be evident. We daily gain a personal acquaintance with most of the tribes,-a most desirable object, as offenders can be easily identified, and punished without subjecting the just to suffer for the unjust. We anticipate considerable advantage from the patroling system, and every expectation that it will be carried into effect with alertness and activity, upon which much of its success must depend.-rl he native brought to Perth on Thursday last was publicly flogged on the same day and se" at liberty. We were in error last week in siating that he was still in confinement. JBill-yoo- merry, is still retained a prisoner in Fremantle Jail;' H. Bull, Esq., J. P, of the Upper Swan, has made an affidavit that he has ieceived information irom the natives, that the man who threw the fatal spear at Lai kins was Goodalyat. When losses are sustained, by the acts of the Natives, and fully established not to have been occasioned by neglect, or undue precaution, it would seem an act of justice that a remuneration should be made to the sufferer out the public chest, as most of the losses are attributable to the insufficient military guard. Another method of recompensing the settler we have heard mentioned, namely, by a public contractor or as&oeiation engaging to insure the colonists generally from all losses arising from the depredations of the natives, THE NATIVES.-We have another instance this week of the marauding dis-1 position of the natives at this season of the year more particularly ; Mr. Bland, of the firm of Trimmer and Bland, who had paid his occasional visit to Perth, to lay in stores for the supply of tie establishment at York, started from Guildford on Monday last vviih a waggon load of flour &c, accompanied by a young man of the name of Souper, a Mr. Heal, a settler at York, and a boy named Gee. It is supposed the natives had been on the look-out, and were aware that the cart was loaded with flour, for, at a short distance from Guildford, the party was overtaken by about 30 natives, who .evinced the most perfect amity, and shook hands with Mr. Bland's party, indicative of a cordial good understanding- which understanding Mr. Bland fully comprehended, and kept constantly on the alert. After proceeding some short -distance, the natives struck off, and proceeded in a parallel direction with the road, but kept, as they supposed, at a sufficient distance to be unobserved; their intentions, however, were evident, and taking advantage of a spot favourable for an attack, (near which some time .ago a boy was speared, and a man named Chipper had a narrow escape for his life, running away with a spear in his back, and leaving his loaded cart to be plundered by the barbarous assailants,) a spear was thrown, which passed through <c Souper's" arm,I grazing the lapel of his coat. He cried out that he was speared, and Mr. Bland instantly fired into the thicket, when a rustling, noise was heard in the bush, and the whole decamped. The nature of " Sou per's wound rendered it necessary for the party to return : they arrived at Guild« ford about 3 o'clock in the afternoon,, where he was attended by Doctor Foley,, and the spear extracted, with great difficulty Mr. Bland came down to Perth the same evening and obtained a military escort, and on the following day proceeded on his journey to York. Souper, we are happy to hear, although he suffered for a time under excruciating pain, is, pronounced out of danger. A Native ROBBED.-A circumstance has come to our knowledge, which, if true, deserves the severest censure. We merely give the report as we have heard it. A private of the 21st regt., stationed we believe at the head of the Canning, fell in with a party of the natives, and took from them an oposum, which he cut up and gave to his dog. The act was soon resented ; a colt belonging to Mr R. Lewis, valued at about ¿'40. or £00, was speared. This is an instance' -and we have no doubt many can be cited-in which the natives have resented injuries inflicted upon them. A STRANGE report has just reached us, communicated to Parker, of Guildford, by some natives, that a vessel had been seen wrecked on the beach, a considerable distance to the northward. The story has been handed from tribe to tribe until it has reached our natives and runs as follows. We give it of course without implicitly relying on its accuracy, but the account is sufficiently authenticated j to excite well-founded suspicions that some accident has happened It' appears j the wreck has been lying on shore for 6 moons, or months, and the distance from this is said to be 30 day's journey, or about 400 miles. When the water is low, the natives are said to go on board, and bring from the wreck " white mo* ney ;" on money being shown to the native who brought the report, he picked out a dollar, as a similar piece to the money he had seen. Some steps should be immediately taken to establish or reflute this statement : the native can soou be found. He is said to be importunate that soldier man, and white man, with horse, should go to the wreck, volunteering to escort them. We shall look with anxiety for further information upon this point. CHEAP FLOUR.-An Account appears in th» means of making flour from wheat straw. Thit being chopped small and passed through the millstones, yields a flour, coarse in, .appearance, but agreeable to the taste, and,also nutritious. Mad« in a wash for pigs, or mixed with oats for horses, it is said to be an excellent article of food. Ti» bread which is mate from it is superior to much of the common bread eaten by th« lower ordert on the Continent

 (COPY) 44 Castlereagh-street, Sydney, I " Í6ih December, 1833. "Sin,-Permit me, through the medium of your office, to submit the underwritten statement and proposal to His Excellency the Governor; a proposal predominant with other views to me during the last four years, but indisposition emanating from the successive attacks of the destructive complaint, ' Noli me tangere or Lupus,' has alone deterred me, heretofore, from communicating it to the Government, but now renovated in health, with deference I anxiously hope for His Excellency's approbation. 44 Aware that it must be of much importance to the home a id local Governments of this Colony, to obtain knowledge of its internal features, and general eligibilities, and that forty-five years have baffled the efforts of the successive tourists, to ascertain this country's formation, or its resources westward of 139° east longitude, which efforts were made between the parallels of 28° and 29° south latitude, and that the largeness of this Island has, as yet, forbidden the attempt to traverse it longitudinally ç i e, from hence to Swan River. " To be deemed competent for a successful exploration of such an extent of country (-2,000 mitas in a direct line), I may have some weight in his Excellency's estimation, m my having been trained in youth and attained manhood in relative pursuit ; requisite education and forte (if not genius) to hunnount probable obstacles in prosecuting sucli .i tiük - pretensions gleaned through twenty-sev/n years practice (from the age of 15 to 42) in the haidv* habits of the 4l Bush" as a Surveyor in British America and in th*se Colonies. ¿Such <a ly and lengthy practice, by a person possessing niedioc.ital intellect, must have enlarged lids judgment, and perfected in himself, the indis «pensubie acquirements for such exploration ; <ex.

(Copy of Answer.) % 44 Government House, Parramatta, 44 2$th December, 1833 44Silt,-I have the honor, by command of His ^Excellency the Governor, to acknowledge the receipt of your letter of the 16th hist., addressed to the late Private Secretary, and with reference to the Expedition which you offer to undertake, to inform you, .that the Government does not at present contemplate such adventure. 441 have the honor to be, Sir, 44 Your most obedient servant (Signed) " GEO. KENYON .HOLDEN, ."Jtavate -Secretary. ' Surveyor, Sydney." REMARKS. Wiisacres may style this proposal, the *4 Child of chimerical brain/' to such I am not inclined to barter argument for their crop of assertion, yet to the retiocinating mind I would say view the days of Superstition, and general ignorance, wherein we may contemplate the invincible spirit and towering genius of Columbus ascending the precipitous sides ofthe Crater of human incredulity, and contempt, in defiance of the noxious vapours and toppling rocks which threatened him willi destruction, but his faith Was equammous, and he had sighted his object through a lucid medium,-he gamed the summit, and Europe was thus inaugurated the Empress of a will conclude, that to pass «ver New Holland to Western Australia, to be'a pigmy jaunt-a female effort in the contrast of its rushlight reflection with the lustre deverging from the halo that yet encircles the achievement of Columbus ! 'i hen, if in those days of opposition to genius, and improving innovation, an astounding proposal was gloriously effected by the powers ot a single mind struggling during years with the disapproba tion of importuned nations, and beset by numerous discouragements. Shall 1834 chronicle a population of 60,000 inhabitants in New South Waies, among whom were not found physical and mental powers combined in one person adequate to explore the length of their Island-although most ot them have traversed down the 44 smoke of their Mother's chimney ?" or will time continue to slip, year after year, without the community of Australia producing the 44 needful," or coming forward to the number of 400 persons, willing to expend £l, each to cause thi& Explora 1 tion to be effected, and thereby bring the unknown parts of this country into the market and display > a National mart instead of a hunters shop, to attract Migration ? am, Gentlemen, Your obedient servant, THOMAS FLORANCE. . A loss that amounted to one-half of the Pack Animals used in the Surveying Department until I entered it--[T. F.] The Australian alludes to the Exploration Party in the following humourous style : YES-Mr. Fiorances noble offer to explore th« unknown wilds between this and Swan River, at no greater expense than ¿Ê400, has been met with the announcement that44 that the Government does not at present contemplate any such adventure." Though informed by this gentleman's letter that he is subject to 4t noli me längere or lupus"-but is now considerably better-that his early education has fitted him for the task-that he has considerable forte, though no genius-that he has in himself every other requisite for the business, name.y, a degree of knowledge and skiii that is pertèctly terrific-that he knows how to put a pack on a bullock's back, (in this case we fear he has not put the saddle on the right horse ;) and lastly, that he is " actuated by matured confidence, the offspriug of experience, that soars above the charge of presumption,"-in defiance of all this such was their answer. Mn Florance makes, naturally enough, some very bitter remarks upon the subject, written in a style too which at once proclaims him to be admirably fitted to climb mountains and precipices, so far does he soar in this imagery, above the clouds even ; and our faith being like that of Co iumbus, as he writes " unanimous," we fully concur in the view he takes of the matter, and come, too, to the conclusion so brilliantly conceived, and expressed in the following extract from his 44 remarks :"- ' 44 Such a mind will conclude that to. pass over New Holland to Western Australia to be a pigmy jaunt-a female effort in the contrast of a rushlight reflection with the lustre deverging from the halo that yet encircles the achievement of Columbus." Some part of this gem of literature we did not at first exactly comprehend-at last, one of our devils suggested that the journey might be justly called a female effort since it would undoubtedly be a great labour.
