A few evenings since I attended a sitting of Parliament. The Speaker evidently endeavored to impress the assembly with a degree of awe, and their proceedings were coniuctsd with a great deal of pro riety, but’ in point of talent they are below meoiocrity, not even comparing with our Board of Aldermen. Be; ond ebec, for the space of several miles, is a titul fertile plain that only requires Yankee enterprise and industry to take it one of the most desirable and profit- able pieces of land in North America. About ten and a half miles from the Cig is toe Indian vil- lage of Lorette, through which runs the river St. Charles. For romantic and majestic scenery I think ‘tse fells of Lorette surpass apythicg of the kiad I have ever seen. If Lorette falls were situated within the States they wouid be looked upon asa mice of gold. They hava a volume of water sufficien: iv operate fifty mills, which could be erected at a tuifliog expense, and yet there are but two mills erected there, and they are owned by a Yaa kee, Mr. Russell, the Propssesoe of Rasselt’s Hotel at Quebec, which is, nyse way, one of tho dest, if not the very best hotel in this city. This entieman bas tie foundation for a large for. june at Lorette Falls, having secured a large travt of land on the borders of the falis and river, aud erected thereon a grist miil and a paper mi'), both of which he expects to have in full operation in a few weeks. There is still abundant room for Yaa kee enterprise; and when the Canadas are anvexed to the States, as they soon will be, these fails will be invaluable. The village of.Lorette is inhabited almost entirely by {[ndians converted to the Catho- lic faith. There are but three or four neat houses in the village, and the village itself is laid out with- out regerd to order or beauty, much resembling a sbanty village, euch as I have seen on the line of a railroad in the process: of covatruction. There are meny places around this walled city that amply re- pe the traveller for the cost of the visit—such as rette Falls, the Falla of Montmorency, the Plains of A am, Where stands Wolfe’s monument, and where ‘Wolfe aud Montcalm feil in Sighting their covntry®’ battles. The fortifications, and, above all, the most interesting to an American traveller, is the place where the gallant aud fearless Montgomery ascended to scale the walls of this Gibraitar of America, and whee be so nobly sacrificed his life in bis endeavors to add to the imperishaole fame of bis adopted country.

By an immense eagerness and false calculations, derfal commotion in regard to the appointment of postmaster in the place of Col. Pryor, deceased. Many were the rumors in regard to the applicants and the prospect of their success. It was said that some of the “ fast ones” had posted off to Wash- ington city with a view of outrunning the tele graph; bat, unfortanately, the telegraph was a [ong ways ahead. The poor old Colonel was not cold before it was known in Washington, and no doubt settled upon who was to be the successor. Indeed, Ido not doubt that a move had been made, and would have proved successful, to‘ decapitate him,” “cut off his head,’ and appoint the present in- combent his successor. If any of the friends of the present incumbent deny thia fact, they are dared to produce the correspondence sent on to Washington. After the death of the postmaster, some frieuds of the widow desired her to be appointed for the remaiader of the term, and busied ‘hems elves in getting ap ve sitions, letters, &c., iu her fav or; and nae of our citizens, finding that the present nt woud Det give way sa ‘‘settiona® govern 77 got up @ peltion anc poster off for Washiugtoay bat—go, acy souls, the y-— befure any application was mailed? +r apy one started to Wastin, » the avpointmeat vas made. Colonel Pryor died on Wedaesday, aad the appointment was iated the following Saturday; so Postmaster Campbell will be saved the troanie of looking over the recommendations aad remor strances agaivat the present iasumbent. You will observe cur President, G-neval Cam bell, or ratasr our Secretury of War, is a fast man—no’, 80 fast, verhays, a8 some of our government offictals ia this place and Jackion, who do the litle mancuvriug and telegraphing, snd the Secre‘ary does the solid work, by causing the appointment; to be made to suit hia views. Mrs. Pryor was decid: dly the choice of the democratic party, under the «ir umatances. Mr. Sparks, the incumbent, is not tha tavorite of the party, and if the vote of the party had been tekep, he could not have obdtsined ten votes. He had sold out all his real estate with the de lared intention of removiog to Keutacky. Some of cur friencs think the Secre‘ary of War should not have given bim this bonus to remaio, a3 he had never been of mush service to him; bat others thought that as he hai been a candidate for the place for the last eighteen years, or during every democratic administration, from Gen. Jackeon down, that time ought to give him a claim to it. If the contest bad have cootinued muc’ longer it would hive been a pretty fight between the Polis and no Poijs, defanct Tammany, hot chestnuts, tt.coate, &c., &c.; but t:e government officers ere and about Jackson, and the powers that be at Washington, “behind the throne, grea*e: tran the throne itse}f,” have ruined our sport. ey are de- cidedly in t90 much haste, and ought to give al! our boys and old ladies a chance.

Macon. Expedition for the Extermination of the Hos- tile Indian Tribes. TO THE EDITOR OF THB HERALD. Satisfactory as the above announcement may be to zome people, it 1s undoubtedly cruel to the friends of that race who have so long and patiently borne the persecution heaped uyon them by private indi- viduals, as well as unprincipled agents employed by our would-be wise administration. ‘‘ Miles,” (your | correspondent) appears to think that the only way to get rid of “ tre tronble and expense of endeavor ing to keep these barbarians in anything approach- ing subjection, is to raise a volunteer force of seve or eight. hundred men, organized in separate detach ments of one hundred and fity each, so disposed that the Indians might be attacked simultaneousl at al] points, and hemmed in at once.” I will tefl jour crrespondent that thee is another way— and away which hamanity and jnstice would app'aud to the echo—and that is, sin- ply, kindness.

The steamship Baltic, from this port for Liverpool, yesterday, carried out only $142,817 21 in specie, and the total shipment for the week only , amounted to $152,817 21. A larger amount would have gone out in the Baltic had the California remittance ar. rived at an earlier day; but it was retained for the steamer from this port next Wednesday. Mr. A, H.
