DE LAVE’S FEAT. A correspondent of the New York Tribune, writing to that journal, thus deâ€" scribes De Lave’s feat which was so near resulting fatally to himself and another: ‘ M. De Lave left the east side of the “river at about 2 o’clock, and walked upon his rope with apparent ease to the Opposite :shore, lying down when midivay the rope, and performing sundry feats, such as balancing upon one foot, Ste. The wind blew rather fresh, and at times he was enveloped in a cloud of spray, so as ito he lost from sight. The rope is suspended directly OVer the abyss below the tall, so that the spray has a tendency to wet the rope and render it slippery, a fact which M. De Lave learned by experience when he ventured to cross with a man upon his back. ' " ‘After partaking of refreshment, and tresting awile, be started for the oppOsite shore with a man upon his shoulders, n 'the person of a sailor weighing about 140 ,pounds, which, with his balancing pole weighing 30, was more than the little .Freiichman could well stand up under. It Was feared when he first stepped upon the rope that he could not cross it. He made his way carefully nearly half across, but when over the yawning chasm, and :nearly enveloped in sp:ay, his fovt slipped, and for a moment they were. supposed lost Down, down, they went, the sailor cling- .ing with both hands around De Laves waist; but De Lave catches the rope with his arm, and they hang thus suspend- ed nearly 100‘ feet above the foaming waters beneath, dropping his balancing =pole De Lave seized his fellow-traveler by the clothes upon his back, and threw him with one hand upon one of the guy tropes, which they fortunately Were near, then climed up himself. De Lave, in domg this act of placing his companion in «comparative safety and then mounting the rape himself, showed wonderful coolness and nerve, and exhibited almost superhu< man strength. ‘ As they fell the impulsive crowd, with one accord, rushed nearer the river banks. Some few ladies fainted; and for an in- stant all was still. But when they reached their places upon the rope, cheer upon 'cheer rent the air. After resting a while, they made their way, ‘ hand over hand, .to shoreâ€"(the sailor showing himself quite at home in this branch of the per- lormance)â€"-glad and lucky to gain Zerra ,flrma. again. I asked them how they felt as they came oil-the ropeâ€"to which the sailor man replied, ‘i felt as though I like something to take ;’ and no doubt he did. So ended the last act of rape-walk- ing, and it is to be hoped that it will not again be repeated.’ A PERILOUS PASSAGEâ€"The steamer Banshee, Captain Howard, which left Kingston for Toronto between four and five o’clock on the afternoon of Satin-day last, had a tempestuous and most perilous passage, encountering boisterous head winds and a rough sea all the way. She took on at Kingston a heavy lowl of freight, and a sulliciency of [)ZIS‘CIIgtHS to sWell the number on board to about 140 persons. Soon after leaving the. harbor the storm arose; tne wind blew in It'l'i‘lllC blasts from the south west. and presently the Waves under the influence of the gale a'an mountains high. Notwithstanding all these terrible disadvantages the steamer bravely bore up, making, it is true, but lit- .tle progress, but demonstrating to all on board that she is astauiicli and reliable VcheI. The passengers generally â€"â€"-who were composed in great part of ladiesâ€"â€" behaved under the trying circumstances with great firmness, apparently placing ini- plicit laith in the ability ofthe captain and officers of the boat so to manage the ves- sel as to salely weather the storm. As the strainer approached Cohonrg, and when Within seven miles of that place, it was found that the. iiiel urns but giving out, and that if they ninth.- no better pro~ gress than then seemed possible they would not have sufficient to carry them safely in- to that port. The wind in the meantime ’had ll'ICl‘ettSr‘d, if possible, to a degree of :greater violence than ever. The boat pitched in a fearful manner, and the waves often broke completely over her. The want of wood at that moment would have left the whole party .compleielv at the mercy of the wind and the waves, and en- sured a fate for many of those on board‘ too dreadful to contemplate. The captain then, in this extremity, wisely concluded to ’bout ship, and by running before the wind gain a point of shelter, where he might to plenish his stock of fuel. The course 01 the vessel was accordineg reversed, and a small village near Kingston, where their requirements could be met was sighted about daylight. Here a fresh supply of wood was obtained, and after a delay of a few hours the gallant craft: again was head- -ed op'the lake. The storm had but little abated, and It required the unremitting at- tention ol the officers and crew to pre- serve the vessel. So strong, indeed, was the wind, and sach the retarding force of the waves, that for a lengthened period the boat made hardly three miles an hour, and once even was borne backwards in her course. The noble vessel. however. triumphed over the gale, tremendous and fearful as it was; and soon the sheltering harbor of Toronto received her, much to the gratification of the numerous party on board. She arrived here at eleven o’clock yesterday morning, having occupied almost forty-four hours in the trip between the two cities. Much credit is due to Cap- tain Howard, his ofiicers and men, for the admirable manner in which they conducted themselves throughout, and the unwearied vigilance which marked their actions, as well as the kindness and attention they be.- stowed upon the passengers-Leader Oc- tober 4th. The Emperor Alexander has decided that libraries shall be formed in all the vessels of the Rusian navy which make long voyages; and has ordered that 300 roubles shall be at once given for that purpose from his privy purse. and that an annual aIIOWance of 60 roubles shall he made to every ship of the line and frigate “mad, mummy Office, mm the same source. experienceâ€"as translator, compiler, and editor .. ’r: DEPARTURE on THE ROYAL CANA- _...___._._._.._ DIAN RIFLES.â€"â€"The several companies of the Royal Canadian Rifles which have. for some years past been stationed in this city, took their departure yesterday by steamer for Montreal. , A large number of persons were assembled to witness the embarkment ofthe troops, whom they loud- ly cheered as the boat movad off. The band ofthe corps played several farewell airs, and SOOn the dark uniforms of the regiment were Iost’in the distance, as the boat steamed out of the harbor. Toronto is thus deprived of the distinction of being a military station, and nothing in the shape of a soldier will be seen in our streets with the exception of occasionally some new recruit belonging to the 100th Regiment, or a stray company or two of our volun- teer militia force on a gala dayâ€"Leader. SAD ACCIDENT ON THE GRAND TRUNK.-â€"â€"A yong man named John Mc Coll, a telegraph operator at the Union Station, accompanied a special freight train from Toronto, East, on h’londay morning. When at the Oswego Station. he was in the act of coupling two cars, when hid arm at the elbow-ioint was hor- ribly crushed, smashing the bones and joint into fragments. He was immediately brought back to the Whitby StatiOn, and conveyed to the centre Hotel, where the. limb was amputated by Dr. Gunn and Checkley.

This work, important as it is to the French Canadian, is not less so to the English-speaking part of the population of North America. All Inhabitants of this great continent, especially all Canadians, will assign it an honored place on the shelves which bear the stirring narratiyos of the first English and Dutch adventurers. It is fit. therefore, to make its reverend au- thors speak with an English tongue. The early history of Canada is at this mo- mentattracting much attention.

The publication of authentic and interesting historical records has been favored and prompt- ed by all enlightened governments and literary bodies: because they supply the best evidence of the truth of history, or the bGSI malerlnls for its composition.
