mart of industry took upon themselves to preserve order and decorum and present the sovereign with a view of the people under their best and voluntarily organized aspect.The scheme was most successful and the results were highly ap- Îroved by royalty.The Mechanic\u2019s nstitute of Quebec, followed their example by inviting its members to enquire how private citizens may best lend their aid to the great work of greeting His Royal Highness by an orderly demonstration of the popular respect on the occasion of his approaching visit.We trust that their object, a most loyal and praiseworthy one, will he accomplished and that other societies will not be reluctant to follow their praiseworthy example.The Gazette says the lion.Mr.Car-tier has subscribed JC50 to the fund for the defence of the Pope\u2019s dominions.Supposing Mr.Cartier to have done so, we are rot quite sure, but that, had these \u201c hard times\u201d left us money to expend in the indulgence of political predilections, we, Anglicans as we are, would nut have followed his example in testimony of our adherence to legitimate authority in every country on the habitable globe.The Cornwall Freeholder says that the electors of South Leeds and Grenville are about to send in a requisition to Ogle R.Gowan, asking him to resign his seat in the House for (hat riding.Mr.Robert Bell is nominated as the Clear Grit candidate, for Legislative Councillor, fir the Bathurst Division He is opposed by Mr.Shaw, The Twelfth of July.\u2014We are sorry that the following brief report of the late agreeable reunion of a highly respectable and loyal body of our citizens, should have been so long deferred by the press of matter under which we have labored for several numbers past.However, u better late Ihuii never,\u201d is a good though somewhat tnte adage.On the twelfth the Orangemen of L.O L., No.697, assembled in the Orange Hull, Garden street.The supper commenced at 9 P.M* The chair being taken by the W.Muster of L.O.L , No.697, I3ro.Jackson.The following toasts were in due course of time given from the chair.\u201c The Queeu God bless her.\u201d\u2014Song, God Save tbe Queen.«< Tbe Prince Concert and the Royal family.\u201d \u2014Song, \"Rule Bri'flnnia.\u201d The charier Toist,\u2014'¦ The Glorious Pious and Immortal Memory,\u201d which whs drank in solemn silence.Song, \"Boyne water.\u201d The Army and Navy.\u2014Song, \u201c Red White and Blue.\u201d Bro.Beattie, in n neat and appropriate speech, proposed \" tbe Ptince of Waies,\u201d which was drunk with all the honors.The health of our host, Bro.John Lindsay\u2014 Song, \" For he\u2019s a light good fellow.\u201d The health of Mrs.Lindsay, the hostess, being next proposed was drank with lull bumpers.\u2014 Song, \" Land of the West.\u201d fSt-ver il other t >asts having been given and duly responded to, the meeting, alter nging God stve the Queen, broke up with peace and harmony.The supper furnished by Brother John Lindsay, of the City Ilote), was most excellent in quality and abundant in quantity, two important features at all public if not at all other suppers.It was erved most judiciously, and nothing in any department was wanting to the complete comfort mid enjoyment of the eveti- _______ Movements of the Journalists.\u2014 Mr.Woods, of the London Times; Dr.Rawlings, of Frank Leslie\u2019s Illustrated Newspaper; Mr.Cornwall, of the New York Herald, left Montreal, this morning for Portland, enioule toHahfax.Mr.Arthur Harvey, who will represent the New York Tiiiies in the Lower Provinces, left this city this morning, to join the party at Richmond.The Acadian Recorder states that the Chief Justice of Nova Scotia, Sir Bren-ton Hajiburton, had an attack of paralysis one day last week, and slight hopes were entertained of his recovery.Drinking Fountain.\u2014 Through the liberality of a spirited private citizen living near the spot, the Upper Town market has just been supplied with that great desideratum a drinking fountain It is adapted for the refreshment alike of man and beast.It consists of a basin of cut stone resting on an octagonal block which is supported by four dark pillars of polished lime stone, wiih white marble capitals.The water descends from the upper basin and issuing through four apertures between the pillars, falls grace fully with four basins at their base.The design,» pretty one, has been well carried out by Mr.Morgan, sculptor though it is shown at great disadvantage for two reasons.The site is not a con spicuotis one, being on low ground, near the place allotted to the carters and ever crowded by them as a stand.Then the flow of water into the upper basin is at present too light and exposed to the wind so as at times to blow over the s\u2019des when it streaks the stone for the ri-st the day, making it look like a shapeless and confused pile of stonework, without symmetry of any kind.This shower bath nlso frightens the horses when they drink, and at times sends down an unexpected shower on the persona who are using the water.A small flow of water through a large mouthed jet would we think, obviate this, if allowed merely to overflow and full into the basin.It is generally considered that the waters of the Ring Fountain might be advantageously opened to the thirsty, as it stands in a much used thoroughfare.THE CHAMPLAIN STREET MUR DER.Tbe Coroner\u2019s Jury, ufteran investigation into the death of Emery, the sailor, which has lasted seven days, gave a verdict on Thursday evening, of Wilful Murder against Thomas ileyden, sou of a hoarding house keeper living in Chain-' plain s'reet, and William Walsh, steamboat steward, of St.Louis suburbs.Ileyden is still at large.Walsh is in custody.Launch.\u2014Early this morning we proceeded to the shipyard of Thomas C.Lee, Esqr., to witness the launch of a vessel of 1.200 tons.On reaching the place, the workmen were busily employ- ed removing the blocks from under her, and a little after eight, the vessel, which for strength and beauty cannot be stir-passed, glided into her native el ment, with all the ease and gracefulne>s of a swan, amid the cheers of the workmen, and the assembled hundreds, among whom we were glad to see many fair faced.There can be no doubi, whatever, that she will prove as fast a sailor, and ns seaworthy as the \u201c Shooting Star,\u201d \u201c Arthur the Great,\u201d the \u201c Rock City,\u201d and the other ships which have reflected so much credit not only upon their builder, T.C.Lee, Esqr., but on our good old city.We were happy to perceive that the kevl for another large vessel has been laid in this shipyard.THE PRINCE\u2019S VISIT TO THE UNITED STATES.The New Yorkers, now that they have the promise of a visit from the Prince of Wales, are in much the same position as the man who got the elephant : they are quite at loss to know what to do with him.And their anxiety seems to be heightened by the fact that the Prince is to lay aside all Royal State while passing through the Republic, and travel simp'y as Lord Renfrew.The dilUculty is to give him a reception worthy of his exalted position, and at the same time such an one as will not give an opportunity to the civic dignitaries of intruding themselves too prominently upon His Royal Highness.The New York Herald thinks an address from the Council to the Prince might be allowable, as an evidi nee of their corporate entity, but that can only be permitted on condition \u201c that \" they get some decent, well-washed, and « ordinarily li'erate person to read it \u201d But something more than an Address, even should it be presented decently, is necessary.What is to be done 1 Our cotemporary says :\u2014 \u201cIn coDiuhinjr, how*fer,tho nscsssity of keeping down the obtriisire elements of Tultjiiritjr which are so apt to shame us on these occasions, we must not lose sight of the fact that we have yet to mark our sense of the honor conferred upon us by tbe Prince\u2019s visit by a demonstration of some kind.The delicacy that wo fee! iu dealing'with the matter might otherwise be construed into indiUVrenco in reference to it.We would suggest, ns one of the most appropriate and most interesting to our young visitor, in view of the recent efforts to establish a similar organization in his own country, a grand review of the Governor und military authorities of our volunteer militia.Me would thus be the better enabled to appreciate the fact jhat the true strength of a country lies not in its standing army or its navy, but iu the patriotic zeal and military education of the masses.This is woith a trip across the Atlantic to acquire,and it may exercise,through the eonvictions of the young Prince, an important influence on the future security and welfare of his country.

been undergoing annual repairs and painting, the train would have been running at thirty miles an hour, instead of at six or eight as it chanced to be at tho time.Gas Meter Exactness.\u2014The New York World has an article on this topic referring to unjust practices on the part of Gas Companies in that city.The article concludes as follows:\u2014\u201c While we are upon the subject, we add, that a very unreasonable price is charged for meters, and that there is good reason to doubt their accuracy.Although the companies deny this, they practically admit it, when the record of the meter is against their interest.A consumer known to u>», who was surprised at the uniform amount of his bills, whether he used little or much, determined to puss one month without lighting his burners.The bill came in as usua', however, and on representing the fact to the president of the company, he was informed that when the meter marked no change, the rato of consumption for the previous month was charged !\u201d We know of a precisely similar case in Quebec.Such bar faced robbery must be put a stop to.Melancholy Suicide.\u2014On night last, Mr.Henry Drennan, who has for several years been employ'd iu Mr.Tuck\u2019s Iron Foundry, committed suicide by cutting his throat with a razor.\u2014Sherbrooke Gazette, July 21.The Banshee arrived here quits sound about eleven o\u2019clock on Thursday night, and an hour afterward sailed again for Montreal.\u201c Some.\u201d\u2014The Hamilton Times i> rather cruel to dispose of clear grit states-manah'p after the following fashion.We suppose the term \u201c some \u201d is used in the sense of the genuine yankee of the clock maker\u2014a« it is understood for instance in the proverbial phrase \u201c some pumkins \u2014 \" Soma \u2019* Statesmanship.\u2014-It it a most Singular circumstance tb .t the onlr two measures of the Brown-Dorion Government are based upon foundations concealed or impossible.The Government of the two Provinces, as proposed by the Toronto convention, was to be \u201c some joint authority \u201d not yet discovered ; and the payment of the Lower Canadian Se.gneur was to be from \" some Lower Canadian Fund,\u201d never yet disclosed.Yet the author of such delusions is regarded by some enthusiasts us a Statesman I The following proclamation appears in the New Brunswick Gazette :\u2014 Whereas it has been madn known to me that there exists in the United States a grievous and 1 contagious distemper of a very serious nature : among Horned Cattle, I do hereby call upon and Monday r'.qnire the various local authorities and all offivers and ministers of tho law, and other liege subjects of her Majesty, to aid in preventing the introduction of such disease into this Province, audio adopt all such measures as the law authorizes for that purpose, and fur tho immediate destruction of cattle affected with) tha said disease, if any should be fouud within the Province.IT1E NEWFOUNDLAND FISHING BOUNDARY COMMISSION.Button, July IS, i860.The steamer City of New York, Captain I\u2019egram, L'.S.N., commander, leaves this port to-morrow for tho fishing grounds of the British North American Provinces.Ex-Governor Hubbard, of New Hampshiere, United States Commis i doi , under the Reciprocity treaty, with other officials, proceed in lier to New FoundlauJ, where they will hpjoined by the British Commissioner, and iroceed to define the fishing boundary, as provided for in the treaty between the United State* and England.MASONIC.The following i* a-cnmpteln list of the officers elrct of the Grand l.oil^e of Free Masons, which has ju*>t closed its sitting at Ottawa:\u2014T.Douglas llariugton, (Quebec), M.W.Grand Mastrr: W, I).Sirnpsou, (Kingston), R.W.Deputy Grand Master : I).Gale, (\"Quebec), R.W Grand Senior Warden ;
