Died
We are extremely concerned to have the painful duty to perform of announcing the demise of Mary, wife of Peter Stubs, Esquire, Junior, which took place at St. Stephens, yesterday morning. This highly respectable and accomplished lady was not more beloved for her amiable, disposition, than for her unassuming but determined piety. In the bloom of life, having only completed her twenty-sixth year, she was suddenly struck by paralysis, and after a few days suffering, she testified in her last moments, the powerful consolations to be derived from a virtuous life.

The following Parody has been sent us for publication by a gentleman recently connected with the Newspaper press; it will no doubt be read with interest by any of the friends of the Paper recently discontinued in this County. We, ourselves, could speak feelingly on the subject, but the Parody itself is sufficiently eloquent without any observations of our own.
Parody on Hamlet’s Soliloquy “To Be or Not to Be”
By a Printer
To print, or not to print, that is the question,
Whether ‘tis nobler in the mind to suffer
The loss and disappointments of our every effort
To gain an honest livelihood, or quit the business
And end the contest. To stop—to add no more
To Landlord’s rents, and papermakers’ bills,
And every other expense incurred by printers
Is really a consummation to be wished.
To die—to sleep—perchance to dream,
Ay, there’s the rub, like Egypt’s son of old,
Who died insolvent, be denied a burial.
Mayhap the corps for debt may be detained
For British laws permit; and closely held
In durance vile, till the last farthing’s paid.
There’s the respect that makes us bear the burden
Of weekly cares and toils without reward;
For who would else endure the loss of time
Of labour and of cash, the duns of creditors
The negligence of debtors and the string
Of evils unsuccessful artisans suffer
When he himself might quit them all for ever
By a bare advertisement? Who would make
His press and pressmen groan beneath the weight
Of sheets on sheets—and dupes? Weekly composed
To gratify the general thirst for news;
Pore over books, and cull the instructive page,
Or seek in every quarter of the earth
Collect and publish every tale that goes
“And paint the manners living as they rise;”
But that the dread of what may follow, as—
The taunts of envious brethren of the type,
The scoff of enemies, (for who’s without them?)
Silent suspicion of well-meaning friends
Who think we should struggle longer for success,
And utter ruin to our fondest hopes,
Puzzles the will, and makes us rather bear
The ills that now we have, than fly to others
We know not, and perhaps might have avoided,
Thus is the Printer at a stand, and cannot
Between two sad alternatives determine.

The terms of our prospectus are half yearly payments in advance; but our collector has in several instances been rather uncourteously treated and the time of payment disputed. We would merely remind our friends that the ceaseless duties of an editor preclude him from embarking in pursuits unconnected with his establishment, and that he has to look solely to the fulfillment of engagements by the public, to enable him to perform his duties to them. He must therefore call for subscriptions from those who are partaking of the benefits of his labours, and as the application is indiscriminate, he trusts no individual offense can be taken.

Aristocracy in the States: Whilst we are on this subject, we have one word for the wives and daughters of those gentlemen, who may patronize this place. If they go down to Rockaway, with a determination to preserve the same distinctions in society, as they do here, to know no person unless they shall belong to the same clique in the city with themselves, to make enquiries as to who this person is, and who that person is, and to view by their manner they look down upon them; the "Marine Pavilion" will be a failure. Let all go there with a determination to enjoy themselves, and to make each other happy. Let the man with a coat of arms, if he be a gentleman in feeling and in manner, be made to consider himself as the companion of him who has half a dozen quarterings. There are but few persons who do not know the extent of a watering place acquaintance. A gentleman will always feel, that it gives him no claim to a recognition by a lady, or to a call at her house, unless she shall have in some of those ways, which the sex so well understand, intimated to him, at least, her willingness that their acquaintance should not cease with the occasion which called it forth. The knowledge of this fact should do away with any of the fears the "Ladies of the Pavilion" may have, that their visiting lists would be inconveniently increased, by acquaintances made at Rockaway.

The King of Persia has ceded the province of Giza to the Czar, in lieu of a debt due to him, although this misguided monarch is said to have 15 million in his treasure. The next step of the Russians will be to navigate the Euphrates with their steamboats, and then adieu to the English power in India. But not content with this, they have crossed the Atlantic, and still further strengthened themselves by a commercial treaty with America, to the complete exclusion of English commerce. The next step of the United Powers of Russia, Prussia and Austria will be to force us out of commercial Germany, and by placing the carrying trade of the world in the hands of the Americans, revenge themselves upon England, for her unnatural connection with the despot of France."

Some are not as susceptible as others to the existence of this, but to those whose sense of smelling is delicate, the shore of the town during low water, in warm weather, most assuredly omits a sickening effluvium. The harbor is the receptacle of the refuse of the town; the wharves are of every imaginable length, making innumerable nooks and gullies where filth lodges, they are also built on logs, not solid, and so allow filth to float under and about them with the tide . . . .

"On Scenery Near St. Andrews, New Brunswick" The Chamcook Mountain and the picturesque. Good part of the many mills lining the river from the lake. .
Ramble and Remarks: On Scenery near St. Andrews, New Brunswick:
I have long admired that beautiful expression of Shakespeare—the air smells wooingly—but I feel it this morning with something like that conscious delight which experimentalists must feel who find their theories result in reality. I was always an early riser and could hold a thousand arguments in favour of the practice. I am now afoot ere the sons of commerce, and the busy imps of toil have resumed the labour of the day. . . . Yesterday I enjoyed the fine view from the higher grounds of the town. Today I mount that peaked hill which retains its Indian name, the Chamcook, and from its summit I anticipate a glorious scene. Here comes my companion.
Excepting by water, St. Andrews possesses but one highway leading to and from the town; its peninsular position, however, renders this no inconvenience. The improvements in the environs, I am informed have been rapidly made, all within these few years. After passing the next villa belonging to the Sheriff of the County, the road rises rapidly, and from the top of the ascent, a splendid prospect opens in every direction, and now we see the noble Chamcook reposing in the placid stillness of the early dawn and now . . . we accelerated our pace for about a mile, and after turning to the right came to the foot of the mountain. Cultivation has crept up its sloping sides, and denuded it of its majestic clothing. Its bald crown rises above its fair scattering locks still strewed on its venerable head, and a fringe of foliage environs it below, like the ample beard of an ancient dervish. Utility is ever at variance with the picturesque, and the best taste may be compelled to bow to circumstance. The proprietor, a gentleman by the name of McLaughlin, is making extensive and I think judicious improvements; and no doubt takes as much pleasure in contemplating his cultivated slopes, as I should, to find them covered with their wonted forest. Merely as an admirer of natural landscape I lament the disappearance of the wilderness, but as a . . . I rejoice at the cause. This is not quite so extravagant as sentiments I head lately expressed on the picturesque, which I am tempted to extract from my journal as follows:
During my sojourn in Canada, I was much amused by the foppery of a red coated aristocrat, who was mincing twaddle to a young woman whom I cannot designate by the term of lady, for according to my acceptation of that word, it means a female of education, good manners and intelligence. The beau and the fair one lounged on the quarter deck of the steamer, and while we glided through some delightful scenery, they pored drowsily over the contents of an album. . . . Ere they had turned over a tithe of the motley leaves, they came to a pause, an awful pause, prophetic of the end. Like most of these fashionable trifles, it seemed as if the powers of its projector had been exhausted in the first mighty effort, and a void of space remained to be otherwise employed when the magnificence of the binding should be forgotten. After a long listless look at the gaudy gilding, the hero drawled out—"aw—the myrtle is exquisite—quite recherchez—but—aw—pardons—not a single sketch of Canada." "O la la major," exclaimed the belle, "positively now, how can you—only fancy a view of spruce bird cage like houses and long straight roofed barns! Nothing else among these poor people improving their farms—no dilapidated castles, no dear old ruins—this new Country is altogether entirely quite too young for such delightful accidents."
Methought I heard the voice cry sketch no more; utility is ever at variance with the picturesque. We may now return to the Chamcook.
To ascend this hill is fine exercise; unlike the labour of Sisyphus, it is just sufficient to quicken respiration moderately, without causing exhaustion through fatigue. We reached the summit by a devious track and at length stood on the topmost point. All my poetic preconceptions were realized. I can feel, but not convey them. I shall merely enumerate the leading features of the grand and varied view.
A jumbled mixture of crags and knolls and volcanic inequalities stretch in indistinguishable confusion far to the east. The Wolves seem to repose in a hazy placidity on the almost undisturbed bosom of the Bay of Fundy, which withdraws until the eye cannot distinguish it from the misty mixture of the lower clouds. To the south, that long stretch of something bluer and denser than the distant vapour is the island of Grand Manan. The broken and irregular indentations which hem in the nearer bay are a series of Islands from Great Latete to Campobello. The territory to the eastward is part of the State of Maine: with a telescope you may plainly discern the star-spangled banner of the fort of Eastport. The Bay of Passamaquoddy occupies the middle space, and there lies St. Andrews Island in front of the town, but by far the finest portion of this panorama is the County watered by the Scoodiac. A splendid outline bounds the horizon to the northwest. The undulating district of St. David, the mountains of the lakes, the hills of Pleasant ridge, a purple conical peak far away northeast, and a succession of eminences to the right complete the circle. We are placed on an almost isolated elevation and can take in an immense assemblage of mountains and plains, forests and cultivated lands, rock and streams, and the great ocean commingling with the sky. Although the woods were most splendidly arrayed in hues as gorgeous as the sky at sunset, and all the tints of hill and dale and sea and sky were blended in harmonious perfection, yet neither any friend nor I were attracted by the beauty of the colouring; a sense of the grand and severe admitted of no minor impression.
Our unsated gaze was long turned to the diversified objects around us—the varied beauties of nature seldom pass upon the senses; but the sharp morning air at length brought us to the craving sense of a keen appetite. Luckily my friend had not neglected the commissariat, and whilst he untied a well stored napkin, he repeated the repeated the appropriate lines of Allan Ramsay . . . Seated by a mountain rill, we went through a practical illustration of the poet's assertion and having finished our repast descended joyously to the highway.
We next directed our steps to the hamlet at the outlet of the Chamcook lakes, where we were attracted by new and interesting objects.

Continuation of piece on St. Andrews Scenery. .
Rambles and Remarks on Scenery Near St. Andrews, New Brunswick
After descending a steep bank we were all at once among the bustle and activity of the extensive establishment of John Wilson, Esq. a merchant of standing in St. Andrews, whose intelligence and enterprise have blended the ocean and the waters of Chamcook for the purposes of manufacture and commerce. There is an air of precision . . . about the place, which together with the embosomed snugness of its position, tenders it an agreeable scene to the eye of a fisher.
We proceeded directly to the lake from which the stream debouches at an opening between the surrounding hills, and ere its brief course has measure the extent of a furlong, it is lost in the waters of Passamaquoddy Bay. But in that short distance the genius of enterprise has applied its current as the motive power of a series of machinery, which thousands of streams that roil their mightily length in volumes to the sea, cannot boast of. These varied and useful works consist of a number of detached erections comprising the following particulars, viz. a barley mill in full operation, and I can bear witness that it produces as fine pearl barley as can be imported from any country in the world. Here is also a grist mill, set aside particularly for the convenience of the farmers of the surrounding country. Lower down we find three sawmills, with gang saws, and circular plates for edging deals and trimming their ends; a process which enhances their quality and consequently brings a higher value in the market than can be obtained for those manufactured in the ordinary way. Every convenience has been studied for hauling up logs and piling the sawed lumber. Below these are a kin and Mill for making Oatmeal, and for grinding Indian corn. The lower mill is now manufacturing 2300 bushels of wheat per diem from a cargo of 15,000 bushels imported by the proprietor this season from Hamburg. The flour is of a superior quality; they pack it and make it up in barrels that might receive the banks of Genessee or Howard Street.
My attention was particularly attracted by a capacious Wet-Dock constructed immediately below the mills capable of containing a number of vessels in 22 feet of water, which is the depth of the channel of the inlet when the tide is out.
This is the first basin of the kind I have either seen or heard of, on this continent; and it is much to be desired that he great facilities offered to the shipping interests by this stupendous undertaking may be widely embraced, and secure to the spirited projector, a remunerating and well-deserved patronage. I had the satisfaction of seeing the first vessel that had entered in the process of loading. She lay close to the mills and received the deals directly from the piles clean and dry. . . . It may be a homely remark, but I will make it that owners and masters must feel great satisfaction in the consciousness that their vessels ride in perfect safety—their boats, crews and property quite secure—light work in loading and the utmost despatch given, consequently, much expense inconvenience and delay obviated. In touching on these matters, the writer should be better informed of their general nature then I can pretend to be, as I am indebted to the gentlemen who accompanied me for all their prominent points. Our last look was at the shipyard where several vessels had been built—the last of which was the Princess Victoria, a fine ship of 561 tons. A. Z.
