The House of Assembly of Lower Canada have adopted an
address to the King, embodying the spirit of PAPINEAU'S. famous ninety-two resolutions. The address also declares that the Colonial Government does not possess the confidence of his Ma- jesty's faithful subjects. Instead of three years' arrears of salary, due to the Governor, Judges, and other officials, the Assembly has only voted six months' salary ; and altogether, Lord GOSFORD seems to be in as bad odour with the dominant party of the As- sembly as any of his predecessors.
In Upper Canada, the Assembly is badgering Sir FRANCIS HEAD, demanding explanations, and official papers. Sir FRANCIS appears to act with temper and caution.
