The defendant proceeded accordingly to make the levy, and having done so, he waited o at th e p l a i n . tiff, and tendered her $l. 12... and receipts for land tax and sewers rate paid by the tenant, for 31. 4s.bil. making loge. ther the amount of the quartet's ueut.

CI. 124. had been paid into court by the defendant. Mr. Agar, for the defendant, contended that his client had coaductcd•himself in n perfectly legal way ; lie was hound to allow the tenant the amount of taxes paiil by hint. 'the Act of Parliament providing that they should in the first instance, be paid by the tenant, and afterwards be deducted from the rent. The Learned Judge, on the Act of Parliament being pro. duced, held that such was the law, unless there was a specific agreement to the contrary, which there did not appear to be in the present cave. The plaintiff not proving any such speci fic agt cement was nonsuited. Extract of a letter from a Mr. B. formerly a manu facturer in Manchester PHILADELPHIA, Se PT. IL—According to the promise I Made you, when we parted at Liverpool, I avail myself of the earliest opportunity to give you all the information in my power relative to my situation and prospects here, premising that my stock of information cannot be very extensive, as only arrived the latter end of July. I was detained nearly six weeks at Cork, waiting for an opportunity to ship the at. tides I brought with me, and without which my coining here would have been worse than useless. At last, a tavoura'►le moment arrived. and all was g•tt safely on hoard, and escaped the prying vigilance of the Custom house officers; and we arrived here after a pleasant passage of 29 days. I immedi ately waited on our mottle! friend, Morrison, and found that by his exertions, the extensive ',remises we were In occupy, were in a considerable state of forwardness, so that by Christ mas at farthest we expect to begin our operations. In the interim, my time will be fully occupied in superintending the construction of the machinery, from the tnotlels I brought with me. I liod the mechanics here far behind those in Eng land; and, were it not for the tin re I brought with me, I should quite despair of ever completing the arduous task in which we have engagrd. I can say little of this country at present, tiot having been a mile beyond the limits of the city since I arrived. I have, however, met with many whom I knew in England. There are, indeed, many hundreds here who have recently emigrated from the United Kingdom; and not a vessel arrives that does not bring an accession to their numbers ; among them are many who are extremely dissatis fied, awl are resolved on rewriting again to England. This is not to be woodered at, when we consider the many thou sands that are continually emigrating here without ally pre. concerted plan. or the least knowledge of the country. Many of these, if they do nut meet with situations in the place where they first land, immediately feel disgusted with every thing around them ; and, instead of penetrating to the interior towns of the Union, where there is, I am well informed, room for eoun•less myriads in all the useful and handicraft professions, they fall into a state of Is-Burgin stupor, and sigh for their native country. I advise no man to emigrate who feels hime self comfortable at home ; and above all, I would have 11011 come here who imagine they can procure a comfortable live ).hood with less exertion than is required in their native coun try. There are too snail, idlers here already dissatisfied and disgusted with their change. The Consul's office is daily beset by these, who having remained until they have expend— ed all their money, arc craving to be sent back as distressed British subjects; and many are sent at the expense of the En glish Government to Canada. In short, I would have every man who wishes to emigrate, to well weigh every circumstance before lie makes up his mind on so set ions a measure—i u ulas_ try, prudence, and economy, are quite as requisite here. to enable persons to make their way through life, as they are in England, or any other part of the globe ; and without these esseutial requisites, a mate be hi: profession what it may, only exchanges for the worst. What surprise‘` me is, the Omit. tress of all articles of English inatintactitle. Manches. ter goods can be purchased; here, and, I am informed, in all the sea ports of lilt Ulllllll, fur very little noire than what they can be procured for Ul/ the spot.

We now pass ou to the other victims of this heart rending eatos tiophe ; and perhaps the first that claims our notice is .1 he Howell, a boy aged only 11, the son of one of the book keepet s belonging to the concern, who resided at a house in the yard.
