the sailing of the two boats and less than a day, I had determined that, whatever clse I should see, I should do full justice to the Citadel and to the scene of Wolfe's victory.Quebec is the only specimen we have on this continent of a fortified city.The Citadel, which crowns the summit of the rock on which the city is built, is merely the centre, the kernel, of an elaborate system of walls and batteries which extend far on every hand.Every piece of rising ground hus been seized upon by the ongineers to strengihen the.line of defence and make it more difficult to approach the city.The city itself is consequently a queer jumble of houses and ramparts, shops and cannon.Where you least expect it you stumble on a row of mortars, and peering above you will be seen the muzzles of cannon.The rampart, or wall, which surrounds the city propor is an exceedingly massive work, and being of such a thickness that it is hardly likely to be ever entirely removed.It is, of course, a great obstruction to free intercourse, a large portion of the city lying beyond it.Something has been done towards removing the gates, and it is plain that the wall will have to be levelled ultimately in many places to meet the requirements of the citizens.One of the gates, St John's, is such a massive, handsome structure, that you cannot help wishing that it, at least, might be spared as a memento, but I understand it is doomed.In approaching the entrance to tho Citadel, I was struck by the ingenuity exercised to make it impossible for an enemy to draw near\u2014the long curved lines of solid masonry through which they would havo to pass exposed to vollies of grape and musketry.The Citadel itself I take to bon masterpiece of engineering art before the period when cannoñ wero produced which made nothing of stone walls.The sides facing the land, are an intricate labyrinth of ditches and walls, every device being adopted which would place an cnemy at a disadvantage and increase the power of the garrison.On entering tho Citadel, I was surprised at its small extent, I having supposed it io contain numerous buildings with an ample parade ground.On the contrary the space enclosed is inconsiderable.At one end are the quarters of the men, which form part of the bastions and are therefore bomb-proof.The men scemed satisfied with their rather gloomy lodgings, though they admitted they wero close on hot days.On the side next the river there are no dwellings, but on tho other two are the officers\u2019 quarters, the Governor's residence, hospital, theatre, and storc-houses.The Governor's residence is similar to the officers\u2019 quarters, and is a plain barrack looking building.The batteries and magazines are of prodigious strength, the walls being 53 feet thick.Walking around the rampart, you realize how completely Nature has given this height a command over the surrounding country.Thero is not a point on which its guns could not bo levelled, and with a faithful garrison and adequate armament it is inconceivable how it could be captured.The highest part is noxt the river, called the Governor's platform.Of late years it bas not been pleasant for our Governor-Generals to go to Spencer Wood, and Lord Dufforin, when in Quebec, takes up his abode here.On this short promenade, the Governor's platform, I was told be would sit for hours, and indeed, nowhere can a finer prospect behad.Sheer down the cliff, 380 feet, are to be seen the Allan liners at their wharf, then the noble river dotted with shipping, and rising bold: ly on the other bank Point Levi, which is almost a city in extent.Looking downwards, the St Lawrence ig seen to increase in volume, its rapidly expanding waters embracing the isle of Orleans, and to the left comes a variegated expanso of city and rural life\u2014streets melting into country, the fast coloring crops succeeding the rows of rod-and-white dwellings, until, in the far distance, rise the blue hills of the Lauren.tian range.I presume there are spots in the world, where even wider landscapes meet the viow, but 1 doubt if one so diversi- flod, such a picturesque mingling of the evidences of the busy industry of town and city with the beauties of Nature\u2014~of plain and bill and water\u2014is to be happened upon olsewhore, Certainly it was the finest, the most inspiring prospect that ever met my eyes.Walking to the rear of the Citadel, its western end, I saw, for the first timo, the Plain of Abraham, a narrow field, gently sloping downwards from the Citadel, with three Martello towers across it in the foreground, and a big, heavy-looking building planted in its middle.The Citadel is now the property of the Dominion and is occapied by two companies Reasonable rates.-J.NEVILL, foreman to W, Walsh.of artillerymen\u2014180 men.They are on- engaging.Half are French and half English.No difficulty has been found in getting men, for there aro always moro applications than vacancies, which speaks ill for the prosperity of Quebec, the pay being small and the duties arduous.Tho pay is 50 cents, less their board, which gives 25 cents clear.Of the English, most aro old soldiers.They aredrilled by sergeants sent from England and every pains is taken to make them competent artillerymen.A wooden pavilion is being erocted at one corner, 80 that they can bo exerciced at the guns in winter.The most of tho cannon in the fort are 32 and 68 pounders old pattern, with a score of Armstrong 100-pound- ers.Iwas told the Armstrong guns are condemned, having becn superseded by a new pattern which are also muzzle-loaders.In practice it was found that, in heavy guns, tho discharging soon rendered useless the broech-loading apparatus.Of military stores of every kind the Citadel contains an enormous quantity.Leaving it, 1 resolutely bont my steps toward that part of the plain which was the scene of Wolfe's victory.The day was distressingly warm, but 1 was determined I would not forego my visit.Turning into the St Lewis road a sharp walk brought me to the point desired.For several miles above Quebec the north bank of the St Lawrence gradually increasos in hoight until it culminates in tho cape on which the Citadel is crected.Theo face of of this river bank is a steep, rocky one, but on scrambling up it, you emerge on a fine plain, which I should judge is not much over half a mile wide, and that portion not now enclosed not over a mile long.This plain, which swells gontly upwards until the Citadol is reached, is the Plain, or Height, of Abraham.It isa fine grassy field, on which a herd of cows wore grazing, and a part of it is prepared for that cruel amusoment of gamblers and loafers \u2014 horseracing, In its centre, has been built the now city prison.No stranger can visit the ground without feeling that the race-course and the Jail are desecrations of a spot so dear to every true Briton, or help wishing that the plain had been converted into a public park, go that future gencrations might be able to trace the courso of that cventful conflict.Surely in a land so ample as ours, that field might have been spared from encroachment, on which our birth as a British dependency took place ?Well we must take it, now, as we find it.The only indication of the contest is a short pillar on the spot where Wolfe died.I was tired with my walk, and for lack of better, sat down on a stone beneath its shadow.Straggling away on one side was the St Lewis road with its traffic and its rows of gentlemen's houses, behind me were the cattle nipping the sweet white clover which the late rain had brought forth, a prisoner watched me from behind bis bars, and a duck nestled her brood at my feet.But my thoughts were not of the present.Thoy wandered back to that September morning so long ago, when, in the enclosure 1 gazed upon, lay dying a gallant young gentleman in scarlét, with tho shouta of victory ringing in his ears.Ah mo, how a hero's famo is allowed to perish ; how few care about that romantic episode in our history ; how dise honored this memorial, embedded in weeds and with its ignoble surroundings.And here, while my mind and heart are full of the subject, lot mo recite the glorious story of Wolfe's victory and death.It is now over a century ago, in 1759, that Wolfe was sent to capture Quebec.He landed his force on the Isla of Orleans, and spent all the summer endeavoring to force the onemy to fight him on the open field.Standing on the defensive, the French, from behind their earthworks, kept him at bay for a considerable circle around the city.From the heights of Levi he bombarded and destroyed the city, but the army under Montcalm was intact.In the height of his perplexity, at his inability to force his way through the enemy's lines or draw him out to the open field, Wolfe foll sick of a fever.Let it be remembered he was only in early manhood, a man of 33 years, who, with à weak constitation and many disadvantages, bad fought his way up to be a general.While slowly recovering, his thoughts turned to the enterprise on which he was engagod and he perceived that, in a fow weeks, if not successful, be wonld have to withdraw lost he be frozen in.In July he had tried the enemy in front and had been repuleed ; he now resolved he would assault them in rear.Tho\u2019 scarcely able to move, he began his preparations.No citadel then crowned the rooky height, there was a castle, bat its cannon had no longer command of the river, and the British ships sailed up and down with little risk.To mask his design, Woife ordered that manifestations be made from Orleans as if it were intended to re new the attack at the old place, bat all the THE ST LAWRENCE, BELOW QUE listed for 1 year with the privilege of re- \u2018time ho was moving men up the river to | advanced.Tho British line never wavered.\u2014No.111.Assault from above.Montcalm was not blind to his dangor in that direction.Ho sont a strong detachment, under Bougain- ville, to guard the line of the St Lawronco above Quebec, and held himeelf ready, at the first alarm, to march, from Lis headquarters at Beauport, with the main body in that direction.The cry of alarm had been so often ropoated, that Bougainville and his subordinates grow careless.Thoy had so often expocted, every dark night, that tho British would try to land, that they had begun to grow easy in their belief they would nover attempt it.On tbo evening of the 11th September the word wis given iu the British camp, and aftordark the first division entered the boats.The arrangement was that thoy wero to drop down with the tide and land at what is now called Wolfe's Cove.Silently tho boats drifted down and across tho river townrds the designated point.Woak as bo wes, Wolfe was in ono of the boats, and whilo floating in mid-stream he gavo the highest proof of that equablo tem- por which has always been united with military genius, No worry distracted his mind in that anxious moment, he had done all that man could do and calmly awaited the result.The tedium of tho hour Le relioved by reciting to thore around him Gray's Elegy, one of whoso noble lines, \u201cTho path of glory leads but to the grave,\u201d he was to illustrate in a fow hours by his own sad fate.His declaration, \u201c I would rather bo tho author of that poom than take ŒQueboc,\u201d proved that ho combined the spirit of a scholar with that of u soldier.It was nigh midnight bofore the boats reached the bank.Part of them, by the force of the current, wore swept below the narrow path which winds up it, but those boats were filled with Ilighlanders, and to them tho slaty cliff was no great impediment, and up it they quickly scrambled.The sentry, ut the foot of tho path, was soon silenced, and the guard at the head of it were surprired\u2014 their officer being asleep.The boats were speedily emptied and tbe mon burried up tho bank, and so all night boats kept coming and going and the transportation of the army went on.Tho French, by this time, knew what was going on, but, strange to say, made no attack.Owing to the stecp- ness of tho ascent it was found impossible to take up cannon, but one small field gun was partly dragged partly carried up by tho sailors.At four o'clock, when daylight began to break, tho bulk of the force were un the ground, and by 8 Wolfe bad them in battle array.lis disposition of his little army (4828 Ly the regimental rolls) was vory simple.Leaving a strong guard at the landing place, be marched the mon a short distance towards the city, and then formed them in line across the plain, one wing resting on the St Lawrence and the other on the edge of the field before it sloped towards the Charles River.Ilore he awaited the coming of the enemy.Montcalm had been apprised at daylight of the landing of the British within his lines.le at once ordered all.under arms and proceeded towards where Wolfe lay.Tho march from Beauport was not a long one, and soon tho British saw issuing from St John and St Lewis's gates the Irench army.They deployed at once, forming a line across the field, like Wolfe's, but being more numerous their lino was longer, and reached entirely acroes the peninsula, The plain is now, save where built upon, bare, but in those days it was covered with clumps of brush-wood, similar to what still fringes it on the St Lawrence side.Under tbis cover, tho French skirmishers and their Indian allics cropt towards the British line, pouring & deadly fire into their ranks.It was hero the admirable command and discipline of Wolfe was shown.His men stood to their positions, though overy minute some of their number was shot by the unseen enemy.\u2018 Montcalm bad decided on at once giving battle, and his plan was to make bis chief attack on that portion of Wolfe's lino which was nearest the St Lawrence.He bad at lcast 7,000 men, but the majority were militia, and his army, as a whole, was inferior to Wolfe's save in number and in artillery.Seeing the impending charge, Wolfe, who knew well by his experience at Falkirk and Culloden how to receive the assault of irregular troops, walked along his line, exhorting bis soldiers to acquit themselves liko Britons, to etand firm, and not fire until the French were within 40 paces.The order was that each man sbould put an cx- tra bullet in his musket.Animated by the example and words of their general, the men stood as if on parade.Presently the fire of the Fronch sharpshooters lulled, and their drums were heard beating the charge.In Montcalm, Wolfe had a foeman worthy of him.That chivalrous soldier was seen riding about, getting his men in order, and then directed the charge.The French came on with spirit, shouting and firing as they EE Gaps were mado hore and there as a soldier fell, but the men closed up, and made no sign.Not until the French were within the proscribed 40 paces, did Wolfe give the word, and thon a solid volley was poured into tho Freuch ranks.The bavoo it made was dreadful.With old soldiers, the survivors would havo porsisted in the charge, but these were chiefly irregulars and the sudden carnage appalled thom.They wavered, and in a minute were in confysion, running back towards the city wall.Montcalm did all man could to rally thom, and, while so engaged, foil mortally wounded.The whole British line was now advancing, a moving wall, belching forth vollies of mueketry.The French officers found it impossible to roform their men, who, were slinking off in small parties, and in a fow minutos the whole wore panic-stricken and making for tho city gates or their camp across the St Charles.Scoing this, tho British broke their ranks and ongaged promiscuously in pursuit, their bayonets doing fatal work on the flying onemy.Tho Fronch lost 1600 in killed, wounded, and prisoners, the regulars suffering most, they having stood their ground longest; tho British bad 61 killed and 600 wounded.The Highland- ors lost the most heavily, they having sustained most damage in the morning from the skirmishors and having gono too far in tho pursuit.Dearly bought, however, to Britain was this decisive victory.By it King Goorge gained Canada, but ho lost his foromost gen- oral.The battle did not last 15 minutes, but Leforo its close, Wolfe was no moro.When the I'rouch advanco wns begun, ho had been struck on tho wrist by « bullet.Winding his handkerchief around it he continued with his mon, and after the fatal volley which shattered the French line, ho exhorted thom to advance slenlily without breaking rank, While thus ongaged, ho was hit again, this time by a ball from the French fortifications, Wrapping his sash around him to conceal his injury, ho still kept hia position, when a third bullet, from the same quarter, camo and struck him on tho breast.But his presence of mind did not desert him in that awful moment.Knowing what a disastrous offoct it would havo on bis army if they saw his fato, he whispered to the grenadior noxt him, \u201cSap- port me, that my brave fellows may not sco mo full.\u201d lio felt, however, that his wound was doadly, and allowed himself to bo carried to a hollow near by.Ilo lay for a fow momonts unconscious, whon he suddenly heard tho shout that ran along the lino, \u201cThoy fly, they fly.\u201d \u2018\u201c Who fly?he asked.A woldior, halting in the pursuit to tako a last look of his boloved general, answered, the French, With duty ever uppor- most in mind, he told one of his attendants to go and order Col, Burton to march down m2 wild vetohes that grew Arcast the mous- - ment, [ turned reluctantly sed with many à backward look, towards the city.This letter is already too long, yet I will veatere to add another paragraph Lo it ve- garding a question which rose repeatedly in my mind while viewing the fortifications, and that was, What is the Dominion going to do with them?There they aro, miles of * expensive cut-stone wall, excavation, and earth-mound.In 8 temperate climate they would stand for centuries with tittie 7 with our severe winters, they are perishable structures.Everywhere, altho\u2019 the date is so recent when they were handed over by the lritish Govornmont in good condition, you see ueed fur the repairing hand of the mason or laborer.If the for- tiflcations are to be maintained, a -vegnlar and heavy charge upon the public chost is indispensable.This is not all.The pro- gross of military scicnce has rendered the Citadol vulnorablo from distancos never dreamt of by thoso who built it.To moet this, tho British Government caused to bo dosignod and constructed throe forts on the heights of Point Lovi, which would provent tho bombarding of the Citadel by an invading army.1 saw them only from a dis tance, threo dotached mouuads, for thoy aro carthworks of the modern kind, To keep thom from houving and failing-in every spring, heavy cost has to be gona to.They aro still unarmed.To supply thom and the Citadel with cannon of latest design\u2014thoso iron monstors which can only bo worked by bydraulic power, weighing from 50 to 80 tons and sending missles weighing eight hundredweight five miles\u2014would take us much money as would enlarge the St Law- ronco canals, And, then, such is the rapid progress in tho art of destruction, the works with their armament might have to bo re constructed in other ton years.Thus it is seon, that to maintain those Quobec fortifications in an efficient stato a lavish and constant drain on the exchequer is unavoidable, I morely suggest tho difficulty here, and do uot enter into its deliberation.It is evi.dont that, beforo many years, it will bo n serious consideration for our Dominion Parliament to decide, what in tu bo done with tbo fortifications ubandoned by tho Imperial (iovernment to our care.Of what more | saw in Quebec, I will on.deavor to tell in another and final lottor, in noxt weck's Gleaner.WEEN EVENING

Os the 22nd of last month the British ! House of Commons was the scene of an un- | precedented incident.As our readers are aware, particularly those who rend the story Ship Ahoy which appeared in those columns, an agitation has been in progress in tho Old Country against those villainous shippers who deliberately send unseaworthy vessels on voyagos in the expectation that they will founder and that they will pocket the insurance money.The leader in the agitation is Mr Plimsoll.Early in the session Mr Disracli asked that the matter be left in the hands of the Government, and that they would pass u bill to stop the practices complained of.On the day mentioned \u201cMr Disrueli rose and coolly informed the | Fourth prize, Honore Logault.i House that.owing to press of business, the \u2018Government had rosolved on dropping the \"bill.On this Mr Plimsoll rose to speak.We copy the statement of the London cor- \u2018respondent of the N.Y.Times, who apparently was an eyo-witness: \u201cA glance at Mr Plimsoll\u2019s fico was enough to show that he was laboring under great excitement.Ordinarily a rather purple-faced man, he was ashy pale, his lips iquivered, and his voice struggled with emotion as he said: \u201cSir I earnestly entreat the | {right honorable gentleman at the head o .the Government not to consign some thousands of living human beings to a miserable death.\u201d He spoke amid a hush of perfect stillness, and a kind of thrill went through the assembly, although it is usually one of the coolest and most phlogmatie in the: world.But the effect of this solemn and; -patbetie appeal was irresistible.As Mr | Plimsoll went on to speak of the \u201cship own.\u201cers of murderous tendencies outside of the House,\u201d and their coufederates within, he \"became more and more excited.Ho shout- \"ed, or rather shricked, rolled his head, and , flung his arms about in the wildest way.He referred to a decision which has just been ; given by a Scotch Judge, strongly condemning the condition in which slips were sent ! to sea, and quoted the statement of the Sec- \\retary of \u201cLloyd\u2019s,\u201d that he did not know of | :a single worn-out ship that had been broken thoy lived in tho Old Country the Directors and Cashier would be criminally prore- cuted.; SPP Tux election caso for Montreal West las closed, the Judge taking it en delibere.On Monday the case for Montreal Centro was called, whon Mr Devlin®s lawyers raised the point that the court was not n logally constituted one, as it sat in vacation, Judge McKay overruled the objection and Devlin was called as the first witness.Ke refused to bo sworn, alleging the court was illegal and had no right to exercise judicial functions.On h's persisting in his course, the Judge committed him to jail until such time as he was willing to besworn.On Tuesday application was made lo Chiet Justice Dorion for his release on a writ of habers corpus.After hearing both sides, his IIonor said ho would give his decision yesterday afternoon.CHATEAUGUAY AGRICULTURAL SOCIETY.Tuts Society held last month n competition of farms.Tho following is the award of the Judges: \u2014 First prizo, James Cottingham.850 Second prize, Charles McDonald.10 Third prize, Pierre Lefebvre.3 Extra prize for the best Flowor Garden.5 20 \u2014 The Secretary of the Huntingdon Academy informs us that he has received from the Marriage License Fund 8500 for tho benefit of the Institution.St ANDREW'S CHURCH.\u2014The Sacrament of the Lord's Supper was dispensed Inst Sabbath in the above place, when 186 partook of it, being the largest number that ever communicated at cne communion in St Andrew's Church.J.M.Bourdon, of Dundee village, made the discovery on Monday morning, the 2nd inst., that somo one had lLwen fu his store, as he missed some money from a drawer, but he did not say anythin na he expected they would come back.While he was at dinner on the Tuesday following, more money disappeared.Ile suspected a boy by the name of Napoleon Nerault, who, along with another boy, Galerinau, were sitting on the steps of the store when he went to dinner.Mr Bourdon went for the Nerault boy, when he confessed and handed over what money he and the other boy had, together with some articles they had purchased with his money, amounting in ail to jabout $21.50.The Nerault boy was brought before Justices Baker and Bannon, and committed to Beauharnois gaol to await further proceedings.The other boy made tracks for the States.Nerault aged 16; Galer- inau, 12.\u2014Com.PROTESTANT BoARD oF ScuooL ExAnis- ERS OF MONTREAL.~At the quarterly meet- went on, \u201cpass from hand to hand until \u2018they are bought up by reckless speculators, and then they are seut to sca with precious | - 5,000 ships on Lloyd's register have gone off, their class and forieited their position; and!

ERA A MEETING of the shareholders of Jacques Cartier Bank took place in Montreal on Tuesday to receive the report of Mr Barbeau, who had been appointed to examine the books.His statement revealed an

Cashel, preached on \u201cO'Connell, the Liberator.\u201d Four Archbishops, forty Bishops, and 500 priests participated in tho ccre- monies, which wero very impressive.The Cathedral was densely crowded.The music arranged for the occasion wus magnificent.Dr Croke, in the course of his sermon, said the Irish people wero being educated under a State system which, if not all they could desire,

is continued to-day.The ceremonies began this morning with a grand rocession through the various streets.The numerous organisations, civic and military, which were to take part in the up, or amalgamate with another bank.If procession began to assemble at an early hour this morning on St Stophon\u2019s green and vicinity.There was much delay, owing to the vust numbers, in forming the line, and the procession did not bogin to move antil long after 10 A.M., the appointed hour.Tho line of March was around Merrion square, through Leicester and Nassau streets, College greon, past tho City Hall, up Cork Hill, through Thomas and James streets, Stevens lane, along the quays, through Capel street, Dorsct street, and Connor's row, to tho site of the national monument to O'Con- nell on Sackville street.The route was tive miles in length, and the procession extended over the entire distance.It is estimated that thore were nearly 40,000 people in line.The houses and sidewalks along the route wore crowded with denso masses of spectators.There was great cheering ns the pro- cossion marched past O'Connell's house and the City Hall, where the great liborator de- liverc ! his first oration agninst the Union, The members of the Fenian Amnesty Association marched with a banner at their head hung with chaine.Their flags were draped with crape, and othor emblems of mourning were displayed.Their appearance attracted general attention, but the demonstration caused no disordor during the progress of the procession.Dr Isaac Butt and other Home Rule members of Parliament marched with the association.In Sackville street, as tho divisions of the procession, with bands playing, arrived and tool up their positions, the scene was grand the commemoration ceremonies began at the site of the monument.Lord O'Hagan, who was to have delivered the oration of the day, was not able to bo present, and the Lord Mayor of Dublin came forward to road it to the assembled multitude.The moment he appeared there was groat uproar and confusion.The Fenian amnesty men had moved up to the front of the platform, and, as tho Lord Mayor began to speak, they shook the chains of their banner in hia fuce, and drowned his voice with shouts of \u201cNo Whiggery!\u201d and loud and long.continued cries for Dr Butt.The Mayor made a secoud attempt to read the speech, but finding it impossible to make himself heard, withdrew froin the platform, and proceeded to his carriage under the protection of the Police.De Butt, in response to repeated calls, camo forward, and made a speech, reviewing the career of O'Connell, and thanking the people for their praiseworthy conduct during the day.He was most enthusiastically cheered.Speeches were made by Mr O'Connor Power, member of Parliament for Mayo County, and Mr Sullivan, member for Louth.Mr O'Connor Power.in his speech in referring to Lord O'Hagan, declared it was an insult to the memory of O'Con- nell to invite a pensioner of the Government to the platform on such an occasion.O'Connell should be honored as a nationalist and emancipator of Ireland.The proceedings were then brought to a close, and the vast assemblage peaceably dispersed.With the exception of the scene in front of the platform, there was no serious disturbanco throughout the day.À grand banquet, at which the Lord Mayor prosided, was given at the Exhibition Paluce this evening.The proceedings were marked by no incident of interest until one of the regular toasts, viz., \u201c The Legislative Independence of Ireland,\u201d was reached.Tüis the Lord Mayor announced, and called on Charles Gavan Duffy to respond.Mr Duffy, on rising, was greeted with tremendous uproar and shouts for Butt.For 20 minutes there was à scene of wild disorder.The Mayor made repeated attempts to gain a hearing, but in vain, and vacated the chair.Dr Burt then rose and bogan to speak, when tho gas was extinguished and the company dispersed in great confusion before the series of regular toasts was finished.Tho sermon delivered by Dr Croke yesterday is much admired for its eloquence, but is sharply criticised by Liberal Catholics for drawing anew an Ultramontane line which virtually excludes Liberals from the Church.The Dublin Mail says nine parts of tho discourso were devoted to the Church and one to O'Connell.The New York Times in commenting on the Dublin celebration says: English critics of O'Connell have claimed that he taught the Irish people to seek the redress of grievances by legal agitation, that \u201che taught them, in spite of themselves, to go for relief to the English Parliament, and thus be did more even than the authors of the Union to make the two nations politically one.\u201d It would seem as if the Fenian party in Ireland were pretty much of the same mind as tho above-quoted writer in the London Times, about tho career of the Liberator.A delegation from these advocates of Irish rebellion violently interrupted the centennial celebration in Dublin last night, showing in a characteristic way their contempt for the law, for which they appear to think that O'Connell entertained a totally uncalled.for respect.Nowhere but in Ireland could there have been brought together such a perplexing array of contradictions as have been grouped around this O'Connell celebration.An ecclesiastical party which has placed tho anathema of an infallible Pope on doctrines which tend to secure religious frecdom, is tho foremost in celebrating the memory of an advocate of liberty of conscience, and a party claiming to embody all that is vital in the Lrish patriotism of tho time, insults the memory of the foremost Irish patriot of tho century.It only needed the practical exclusion from the coremonies at Dublin of the Home Rule element among tho Irish Protestants to make the muddle complete.That reqnire- ment, wo need hardly say, has been ful Dublin, Aug.7.\u2014This was the third and last day of the celebration of the O'Connell centenary.The festivities consisted in excursions, boat races on the Liffoy, and athlotic sports.This evening the Cantata of St Patrick at Tara will be given and there will be fireworks.An amnesty do- monstration was made to-day in Glasnevin Cometery, where O'Connell is buried.Forty thousand were present, including several members of Parliament.Resolutions were adopted in favor of Home Rulo and amnesty for imprisoned Fonians.A proclamation has been issued by the Lord Mayor probibiting the pro pyrotechnic display atthe Phenix Park to-night.The cause nesigned for this is that information was received that a disturbance was intended.It seems that several Irishmen from England arrivel here yesterday, armed with revolvers, and determined if a single shot should be fired during the pro cession to precipitate a general rbance.This information was commnnicated conf- and stirring, Long before all had arrived i dentially by Cardinal Cullen, who doemed it his duty to inform tho Lord Mayor.An extra police force was provided to sent at the concert to-night lest distun should occur.2 London, Aug.7.\u2014The O'Connell centenary was celobrated in this city by a banquet last night at

College as a mark of sympathy with the O'Connell festival.In an oration=on O'Coñnell by Professor Danirto, in the Church of St Agatha yesterday, O'Connell was claimed as à pioneer of the rovival of Catholicism in England, and the discourse was Ultramontane and triumphant.Ottawa, Aug.6.\u2014The O'Connell centenary was celebrated in this city in un enthu- siustic manner.Grand mass was held in the various churches, and Rov Dr O'Reilly, of Dablin, preached an eloquent sermon on the liberator in the Notro Dame Cathedral to about 5,000 persons.The city was filled with strangers from the adjoining counties, and everything passed off quietly.Montreal, Aug.6.\u2014The O'Connell celebration in this city to-day was a grand success.About 10,000 persons were in the procossion.A great number of business places wero closed, and large crowds lined the streots through which the procession passed.No disturbance of any kind occurred.Quebec, Aug.6.\u2014The O'Connell centennial was not celebrated hero with that amount, of enthusiasm expected.An excursion down the river as far as the Pillars this morning was attended by a limited number only of the patriot\u2019s admirers, while the concert in Victoria Hall to-night was a very tame affair, notwithstanding the attraction of an address from Stephon J.Meany.Toronto, Aug.7.\u2014Notwithstanding the declaration of the Committee of Arrangements here that they wished the Centennial celebration to be conducted on purely national groands and apart from all sectarianism, it is a significant fact that the proceedings of yesterday were ontirely under the direction of Roman Catholic eocclesias- tics.Some Protestants who were oxpected to deliver addresses at tho Crystal Palaco, no doubt for that reason, failed to appear, and only one Protestant, Col.Iliginbotham, M.P., spoke, and he evidently not relishing his position tried to acquit himself with ns few words as possible.Archbishop Lynch, dressed in his purple robes and all tho paraphernalia of his office, made a briof address, and at its close called for threo cheers for almost everybody except Queen Victoria.The oration of Rev W.Pepper, the alloged Methodist minister, at tbo Musie Hall in the evening, was replete with anti-British and inflammatory sentiments, which wero received with loud demonstrations of approval by most of the audience, but have been the means of disgusting better-think- ing citizens with his impudent audacity.Ho said that Ireland would never get rid of ber troubles and have peace until the cruel British flag was torn down, and pointed to the

K In, $ con MATTHEW MORRISON: THE AUTOBIOGRAPHY OF A SCOTTISH PROBATIONER.CHAPTER XXIV, Ir is a strange thing, and utterly unaccountable te a mind like mine\u2014for am no osopher\u2014that though so many years avo elapsed since the evening on which that painful revelation was made to mo, I am at this day perfectly familiar with the aspect of that apartment, which I then entered for the first and only time.I seem still to soe the cold, dull little kitchen, with its empty yawning grate and soot-sprinkled hearth; the scanty tin utonsils above the small dresser; the damp stains on the wall beside the sink ; and even the broom, worn down by long use to a more stump, standing in the corner behind the door.I sce them all; and yet how could I have noted thoso things at that time?I cannot tell.Bat the unoccupied, dreary look of the place in which Alison told that tale which affected all my future life, is as fresh at this moment in my recollection as if I had seen it but yesterday.Nelly had also heard the sound of the milk-can, and had opened our door for our supply.[ went eoftly through the lobby that my mother might not hear me, and shut to the door of my room upon mo.What a relief the mere sensation of being alone was! I no longer required to act a part.I hurried through my chamber for some minutes, as if in bodily exercise to find a vent for what oppressed me, and then sank wearily into a chair and rosted my head upon the bed.I felt stunned and stupefied like one who has received a sovere blow, and panted and struggled for breath, while a heavy hand, as it were, was pressed against my chest.I bad got a blow\u2014a blow.Oh, my blindness, my blindness! 1 had never known what Jeanie Carruthors was to me till another had put forth a claim to her.My eyes were now opened, and I saw that sinco 1 first knew her character she had unconsciously influenced my every action, and had formed tho standard by which I had judged all women.1 had been ignorantly fostering an enemy in my besom\u2014no, not.an enemy, for to love a virtuous woman even hopelessiy is an ennobling thing.Still, if I had known something of these passages in Jeanio Carruthers\u2019s life, this sudden agony would have been spared me.The name of James Bethune had never boon mentioned in my presence.Would that they had been franker with me! but that feeling I soon saw was unjust; I had no claim to so delicate a confidence.She had wholly belonged to me for years, L had imagined, and now here was this man who had been silent for so long, interposing himself between us.God forgive me! I felt my heart becoming full of bitterness and hateful thoughts\u2014their presence terrified me.\u2018Get thee behind me, Satan!\" I earnestly exclaimed.And indeed I loved Jeanie too well to be able to bate anything connected with her.But I felt I bad reached an cpoch in my personal history\u2014life would havea different aspect to me for tho future.Calmly and contentedly my days might yet glide on\u2014 and would, I doubted not, even at that mo- ment\u2014but their freshness and sunahine were gone never to return.The future had no object, for I could not hope to find another Jeanie\u2014I had no wish to do so.My affection for her had been no sudden impulse, but had grown with my knowledge of er character, of her gentle daily self-de- nials, her unassuming piety and fortitude, and the clear true views she had of life and its obligations.There was no romance in my love for Jeanio Carrutbers, but what a blank existence seemed to me without her! In this fashion I sadly pondered.A burst of weeping had relieved my heart ; the first sharp pain was over, and I was sorrowful, but resigned.With my face still bidden upon the bed I sat meditating and resolving, when a hand, whose soothing touch I had often felt, was gently laid upon my shoulder.With a start I looked up, and saw my mother wistfully regarding me.\u2018What is it, my bairn?she asked, ina troubled voice.I bad never concealed any feeling from my mother before, but I hesitated now.\u2018Am 1 late, mother?\u2019 I said, evasively ; but 1 felt the blood mount up to my forehead beneath her searching eye.Nelly says you bave been an hour in your room, my dear.I knocked on your door, but I suppose you did not hear it; the tea is ready, Matthew.\u2019 Bat still her eyes contiau- ed anxiously to oxamine my face, as if to read there what had vexed me.I could not resist their silent, loving pleading.\u2018Mother,\u2019 I said, as composodly as I could, \u2018Jeanie Carruthers is going to be married to an old sweetheart who has just arrived from America.\u201d I felt my mother start.h Jeanie Carrathers r she exclaimed.Then er voice suddenly einking, * r laddie I\u2019 she added.\u201d 5 7 poo CHAPTER XXV.James Bethune wag pressed for time, so it was arranged that they were to sail ina month, and from Leith, on account of Mrs! Carruthers, whose helplessness made a long | land journoy unadvisable.Their passages: were secured, and they were in all the bustlo of hasty preparation.Mrs Carruthers\u2019s little annuity was compromised for a sum of money paid down.The furniture was to be sold, for the expense of taking it to Amorica, and afterwards transporting it to James's backwoods settlement would cost more, he asserted, than to get new plenishing there.Bat I anticipated little likelihood of a separate dwelling being thought ot for Alison and her mother when once they reached their destination, though the former talked of it now.What would two additional mouths to feed matter in the rough plenty of an American farmer's house oid) and bou ney hers wood was so abundant to add to the original log house at any time, - whatever rooms circtmatances might Fender necessary.Besides, t thers ollow- od the trade of wpholsterors in this country, and bad themselves made the farniture for the dwelling-house from the trees they had felled on their own land.He was realiy a , Warm-hearted man, James une.His consideration the poor mother and Alison pro- oured him my sincere respect.As to Jeanie ho soomed sirongly but reasonably attached to her.She evidently great influence over him; end this augured well for their fature prosperity, as ber actions were regulated by strong religious principle and sound common-sense.It was a to me to fool assured that her happinoes would be sesure with him.Yet were decided - eontrasts te each other; for was of a gay, ad thouguttal.\u201d prossot he vas in al the high spirits of one who enjoys a rare holiday ; they were infectious, and the old dull parlor now resounded with acoents of mirth to which in past days it wha wholly unaccustomed.Thero was a change for the better already in Jeanie.Thero was now a light in bor ore and a faint dawn of color on her cheek, though as yet it was not stationary, but came and wont as with breath.And raw as was still the wound in my heart I could not bat rejoice at these tokens, notwithstanding the source from which they sprung.Joanie seemod anxious that I should like her betrothed, and with a timid blushing earnostness took an early opportunity of saying to me that she hoped wo should bo good friends.I was indeod disposed to think well of Lim for hor sake ; but ere half the month was over I liked him for his own.There was no resisting the influence of his honest kindly nature, and his advances to me were so friendly and cordinl, mingled with respect for my profession, that I soon learned to forgive him for winning Jeanie; nor do I believe that he ever guessed what sho had been to mo.How well her unwonted happiness and the bashful consciousness of a bride becamo Jeanie! 1lor feelings wore never obtrusive, but overy look and word showed a heart now at en-e.It was a now thjng to seo her working for horself, for sho was busy preparing her simpio outfit.The once quiet room was now a daily scene of bustle and activity.James Bethune kopt them all alive by the influence of his own onorgy.He was in and out twenty times a day, and had always something new to toll on each occasion.The poor mother would often look stunned and bewildered by the unusual movement around her; but oven she was brightened by it.It was as if this young man's coming had brought air and sunshine into a chamber closed to them before.I could not keep away from the girls, painful as it was to me to witness the pre- arations for their departure; besides, to Rave done so would have surprised and troubled them, and perhaps excited their suspicions; 1 wished Jeanie's happiness to be unalloyed.Of course, such friends ns wo had been could not part, probably never to mect again on carth, without sorrow; and I hoped that the sadness I could not always conceal would be attributed to this.I ran the risk, however, of liking her! better and better.I had never seen Jeanie under the influence of happiness till now; I never knew till now how sweet her smile was, or how naturally cheerful was her mind.Only blinks of a sunny temper had shone out formerly, like sunbeams from a calm but wintry sky, transiont, and lacking force and fervour.Now she minded me of a sweet clouldless summer morning, when the dewy freshness of the dawn is not yet exhaled, and all indicates a bright day in prospect.i There was nothing extreme about Jeanie \u2014nothing striking or brilliant; her present happiness was serene and sober, and therefore promised to be durable.She possessed that most lovable thing in woman, \u2018a meek and quiet spirit,\u201d which truly is tho chiefest of the fireside virtues, ~eeing that the want of it naturalises all the others ; for a woman may be pious, chaste, and upright; her husband may have full confidence in her prudence and frugality, and yet a captious \u2018 and frotful temper may make her, with all!

was much exhausted by the trying scenos of tho day, and my mother herself put her to bed and tended her as if she had been hor own daughter.The old furniture, which had seemed docont and respectable when properly arranged, mado but a shabby appearance at tho sale.Thero was a tolerably sharp competition among the Cowgate wives for it, owover, and by the afternoon it was all clearcd off, and the houso was empty ; 1 was the last person to leavo it, having seen tho auctioneer away, The parlor in which 1 had spent so many bappy hours looked very dusolate stripped of its furniture, and with the dirt and disorder of the recent sale on its walls and floor.T groaned in spirit as [ gazed around me.Who could havo foretold this change a fow weeks back ?There was the spot where Jeanie used to sit at work, here stood my own chair.These days would never return; that pleasant social intercourse was gone fur evor.I was such a creature of habit that, though 1 hal felt nothing warmer than friendship for Joanie, I should still have suffered by this breaking up of my daily life.As it was Il cannot describe tho bitterness.| I wandered up and down the parlor, indulging in melancholy thoughts.My footsteps echoed dismally through the empty house.Ono heavy affliction had followed another, and, like tho wise king of Isracl, 1 was ready to say of lifo and its changes \u2018all is vanity and vexation of spirit.\u201d A deep depression began to settlo down upon mo, and at last I was fain to leave the house and go out to breathe tho fresh air of the Meadows before presenting myself at homo.There was little to do during tho few days .that intervened between the roup and the return of the newly-married pair.Et would bare been better for mo if more had boon ! loft to the last, for my spirits flagged ox- tremely as tho time for sailing drew near.Jeanie and her husband returned two days before it; they went into lodgings, but most of their time was spent with us.Wo were all sorrowful, but quiet, and by common consent avoided talking of our approaching separation.I went down tu the vessel with James Bethune the day before it, and wo got the luggage on board.At last the hour arrived\u2014wind and tide wero favorable for sailing.Tho helpless mother, less nervous than wo feared, had been got safely on board.her son-in-law taking charge of her.We wero gathored The longer I live the round her chair\u2014the one relic of their old\u2019 moro am I convinced that the most desir- + home that accompanied them.My mother! and Miss Kemp wore both there.All the fomales were weeping; but etrangers wore moving around us, and little was said.We wero soon warned to leave.I bade fare- Kemps were truly kind to mo when she was gone, but no one could fill her place.And ere long Mr Komp wept to his rest also, like a full sheaf of corm, rich in faith and good works; and his worthy little Fsister, now far up io years, was alone too.We were like aunt and nephew, and when she died 1 was chief mournor at ber funeral, and laid ber head in the grave at her request, though not hor heir.Many must still remember the little, kindly, eccentric old lady, whose benefactions, far and near, could not be fully hidden: every tale of distress and poverty mot a ready response from her.1 often visit the brother's and sister's graves in the Calton burying-ground, where my mothor also lies.There \u2018they rest from their labors, and their works do follow them.\u201d Mr Moggat died in Liverpool years ago, an old man and full of days.Cousin Braidfute, poor man, was gathered to his fathers before my mother's death, and his widow and two bairns got all.Poor Sarah Braidfute! at the age of oighteen she made a stolen marriage with a private soldior from tho castle, and had her father\u2019s door shut upon her from that time.It was snid\u2014I hope without truth\u2014that the ste mother herself had secretly connived at the intimacy with a view to this result.1 met Sarah in the street some years ago, and would have passed hor by asa stranger.she was so altored; but she recognised and stopped me.She was a faded, shabbily- dressod, careworn woman, and the sight of mo, and the thought of old times, made -her cry pitoously.Her husband's regiment had just como to Edinburgh, and she had presented horsclf at her former home, hoping that her stepmother might give her some little help, but had got a rough denial.Poor thing! 1 took her home to Nelly, and wo did what we could for her and her bairns.She is now abroad, but I hear from her statedly.1 have been looking over what I have written, and I fear that the latter part of it may creato an improssion on the reader's mind that I am an unhappy, hermit kind of man; and I confess this troubles me.I live, indeed, apart from the world \u2014my usual walks are in its bypaths and solitary places\u2014yot havo I my own simple pleasures and little circle of friends, With them I keep up an interchahge of humble hospitali- ties suited to our means.And though I possess no ties of blood except so remote as scarcely to be countable, Adam Bowman is my brother in spirit, his wife is my sister, and their children are my children.1am interested in all their joys and sorrows; and \u2018Uncle Matthew,\u2019 as thoy call me, is as free of the parlor fireside at the Culdees as the old house-dog himself.And is not my own nameson, dedicated like me in bis youth to the holy ministry, (may his career bo a higher and moro useful one than mine!) an inmate of my house, my winter companion, while he walks the same course of study that I formerly did ?No, I am not an unhappy man.I have had my trials, but I have had my blessings also.\u2018Shall we receive good at the hand of God, and sball we not receive evil?I have seen the grave close over all my nearest and dearest; but what shall separate me from tho love of Christ?No, not even death itself.There is a peace which the world cannot give, and, thank God, which the world cannot take away; and He has given it to me.And I have my sphoro of labor.I may call myself a city missionary, deputed by no sect or congregation of men, however, but by my Master Himself, who commanded me in these words, addressed to Ilis disciples through all the ages, \u2018Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to all creatures.\u201d And with these credentials I go forth, and in my feeble way try todoa little for IIim among my poorer and miore to poverty.For the present, however, she well to the aged woman.\u2018Farewell, Mr: ignorant fellow-men.was a different creature, forgetful of self, Matthew, and God bless you,\u2019 sobbed Jeanio ' and wholly occupied with others.Itseemed and Alison, as I embraced them for the first this day sixty years old.her \u20ac Then I grasped James daikored on\u201d together since my mothers her sister's worth, and that she was endea- | Bethune's hand, and in another minute was death, and will till death takes ene or other standing beside my mother and Miss Komp of us, as if her eyes had been suddenly opened to vouring to repay some of her obligations to her.She was even stronger in health\u2014so | much influence has the mind over the body ; | little preparations.James Bethune did { now hear from her for | the first time.What a change a fow weeks had wrought! ! Jeanie, I could observe, did not forget her mother's and Alison's wants when providing her own bridal wardrobe, and she even found time to make a little keepsake for me.It was a band-case of black silk, containing two pairs of beautifully worked cambric bands for the time when 1 should be placed minister.Ah, dear! that time has never come, and Jeanie Carruthers\u2019s bands have never been seen in a pulpit.Years have yellowed them, but otherwise they are just as her hands finished them.I sometimes take them out of the case and look at them \u2014I bave done so to-night\u2014but years had elapsed after her departure from Scotland before I had resolution to do so.Even yet {I am strangely moved by the sight of them; but it is a gentle emotion, for I know that Jeanie Carruthers has beon happy in her new life.My mother, just and worthy woman though she was, and highly appreciating Joanie, could not altogether forgive her for referring another to me.And yet, I verily elieve, it 1 had married Jeanie Carruthers she would have thought I might have done better, and that a simple mantua-maker was not a fit mate for a minister's son.\u2018Matthew,\u2019 she abruptly eaid to me, ono of theso days, \u2018as the Carrutherses are Jeav- ing the country I sce no nood to keep that story of the young lady and the kirk from their knowledge any longer; and so 1 warn you that I mean to tell them about it.\u2019 1let her have her own way, as it was ovi- dent it would be a gratification to her to make them aware that I might have beon both placed a minister and a married man ere this if I bad liked.And maybe, though their friendship for me was very sincere, this intelligence raised me somewhat in their estimation, for we are all apt to value people according to their success in the worid.I could never get my mother to do justice to James Bethune's good qualities.I never knew her prejudiced against any human being before, and she nearly quarrelled with Mise Komp for expressing a high opinion of him.But I understood the secret fecling that had wraped her jadment, and know that time would set all right.Both she and Miss Kemp gave tho bride a handsomo present.The marriage was to take place a weok before they sailed ; the married pair wore m\u2019s to visit some relations of the brid and last time.on the pier.Leith Pier was a fatal spot to me.another weeping adieu to us while the ship loosed from the pier and glided out into the Firth.I seem to seo them still as I saw them then leaning over the side, now lett ing their white handkerchiefs stream out on the breeze, and now bending their weeping faces into them.We stood gazing on them till their features and even their figures woro lost in the distance, and all we could discern were two shadowy specks clinging closely to cach other and looking steadfastly towards the shore; and so I haveseen them often in my dreams.Faint cheors from tho receding vessel swept over the waters, and wero responded lead in my bosom.CHAPTER XXVIL Such aro some of the viciseitudes of an uneventful and retired life; all over, however, long ago.It has been a singular pleasure, though certainly not unmixed with pain, to retrace this my simple history.I might have entered into fuller details, but 1 have thought it prudent to err rathor as to brevity.There are some experiences in the lives of men too sacred to be laid baro toany eye save the All-seeing one, and theso | have left untold.I am alone now ; indeed, it is many years since my mother was taken home.Wo were never soparate after I left Inveruven, excopt for the few weeks overy summer which I spont with Adam Bowman, I never again had tho offer of a kirk, though 1 stood candidate for more than ono; but I found I could bo useful in the Lord's vineyard without being an ordained laborer, and lle open.od ways for me.We had sufficient worldly means, and 1 was content.My mother faded gradually.Hor settin was calm and tranquil as hor long life ha been; she was even lifted above trouble on my account.\u2018Farewell, Matthew ; wo shall meot again,\u2019 were tho last words sho nddress- ed to me.Amen! mother, in that land whero there shail be \u2018no more death, neither sorrow nor crying, for the former things shall have away.\u201d Thank God for death! would not live alway.Bat oh, thank God for life\u2014for Him who is tho \u2018ronurrection and the life,\u2019 who died that wo might live! I was vory lonely for a long timo after my mother\u2019s death ; T missed her cheerful, loving companionship.For though latterly so foeble ns to be able only to movo botweon her bed and the easy-chair in tho parlor with my assistance and Nelly'sshe was ever youthful in spirit, thankful for every mercy, in the country during the interval; Alison and full of sympathy for others.Tho to from the shore, but my heart lay like the mm j It was hor lifo; and\u2019 poor Sarah and she was unwearied in furthering their:there 1 said farewoll to Archie, and now Adam Bowman\u2019s family are my heirs.\\ She liked to talk to me .from it I looked my last on tho Carrutherses, : of the good times in prospect, and many an | as leaving their mother in tho care of James ; streots and wynds of the old town ; but oc- anecdoto of their carly acquaintance with Bethune, they ascended to the deck to wave, cagionally I wander far out \u2018into the coun- I am getting on in my piigrimage, being elly an ave May I bo the one!

but as the day was gloomy we drove over in a fly, (cost two ohillings) and reached the outer gate in about twenty minutes.As we were expected, we bad not long to wait before our presentation.Camden Ilouso, the residence of her Hajesty, was chosen aftor she had landed at Ryde, n tho Isle of Wight, on the 8th of September, 1870, having escaped from Paris in the midst of tho revolution on the 4th of the samo month.Her passage over the channel was in itself a romance.The mansion is of threo stories, built of dark stone, beautifall inlaid with white, with two wings, and is handsomely located in a fine park.We were conducted from the ante-room into the drawing-room by a chamberlain, where the Empress recoived us, and I was immediately impressod by her exceeding grace and beauty.Time had dealt very gently with her.Born May 5, 1826, she is now in her fiftieth year, but does not look forty, and sho seemed in brighter health and wore a brighter aspect than when I saw her in the Paris Palace of Industry on the 2d of July, 1867, when the Emperor Napoleon distributed the prices to the successful competitors at the Univorsal Exposition of that year.Dressed in deep mourning, without the slightest ornament, and speaking English perfectly, she opened the conversation and I! asked questions without reserve in regard to our International Centennial Exhibition.I described the extent of Fairmount Park, the soveral groups of buildings now in course of construction, the amount of money raised, tho action of the National Government, and the visit of the*President of the United States.Here she quietly interru me by stating that she bad read with Pleasure the statement of his vist, and of is satisfaction at the of the work.Sho seomed to be anxious to know whether \u2018any of the French Princes had been invited, and when I told her Majesty that the President of the United States bad simply invited royal Princes of any country had been specially asked, she seemed to be relieved.Tothe question whether I thought the Prince Imperial woyld be well received, I ventured to express the opinion that his welcome would be most cordial, and that our people held the fact in grateful remembrance that to the statoemanehip and liberality of the First Napoleon we are indebted for the acquisition of the valuable territory of Louisiana, and that this, together with the recollection of French sympathy during our straggle for independence, was one of the most cherished of our national reminiscences.I ran over a list of the Governments that had made preparations lo be present next year, and when I stated that the only ox- ception was Russia, she was very anxious to know the reason, which 1 attempted cautiously to explain, expressing the belief that I bad no doubt when Mr Boker reached St Petersburg the Russian Emperor would gladly enroll his country among the rest.Alluding to the subject of free trade, which she said she did not feel herself compotont to discuss, sho gracefully intimated that she thought somo provision should be made by which the delicate fabrics of Franco might have a partial drawback, when sold in Am- orica, on account of the necessary deterioration of the goods from exposure in a sea voyage, and tho changos constantly taking place in fashionable attire.Tho Princo Imperial was with his battery at thc English military camp at Aldershott, and she regretted that be was not present, in order that he might participate in the conversation.Before retiring I expressed the hope that her Majesty would send us some token of the interest she manifested in tho oxhi- bition, to which sho responded by saying, \u2018Ah! what have 1 to send?What can 1 send?1am here simply the tenant of another's house.All you see about mo I have no control over.\u2019 ut I am not without hope that tho suggestion will bear good fruit; and, on reviowing the request that she might consent to lot ber son como to Amet.c4 next year, sho said : \u2018À fear that is impossible.should like myself to be rosont in Philadelphia, I have always elt tho greatest interest in tho United States, but we are the creatures of circumstances.Wo cannot tell what may tran- spiro to-day or to-morrow, or a fow months bonce\u2019\u2014cvidontly referring to political contingencies.\u201d In reforence to the accident to the Canard steamer Scythia in the Irish Channel, about three miles off Baleycotton, by a whale striking the propeller and breaking off one of the gigantic blades, our Cork correspondent states that those on board at first sup- osed that a sunken wreck had boen struck.| on, however, à wbale 50 or 60 foot in length was seen to riso to tho surface, quickly discoloring the water with its blood from the wound inflicted by the propeller.The steamer is detained at Quocnstown.Errs'g CocoA.\u2014GRATEFUL AND Cowronting\u2014The agreeable character of this preparation has rondered it a general favourite.Made simply with boiling water or milk, Each packet is labelled Jaues Pres & Co, Homwopathic Chemists, 48 Threadnecdle-strect, and 170 Picccadilly.Works for Digtetic Preparations, Euston-road and Camden Town London.THE PEOPLE'S LINE.EXCURSION OF THE SEASON THE NEW STEAMER ST.FRANCIS SATURDAY, limi AUGUST, 1875.ROM VALLEYFIELD to DICKINSON'S LANDING, calling at intermediate Ports.Returning will run the LONG SAULT RAPIDS, giving excursionists an opportunity of viewing some rare and beautiful scenery and also giving an opportunity to those desirous of attending the GREAT FORE.PAUGH CIRCUS & MENAGERY which \u2018exhibits in Cornwall cn that day.The best of music will be in attendance.Tickets.Leaving Gents.Ladies.Valleyfield at 7.30 am.,.$100.200 020000 50c.Coteau Landing at 8.15 am.1.00.60c.Port Lewis at 9 am, .St.Anicet at 9.30am.Lancaster at 10 am.,,.Cornwall at 11.30 am.,.,.DICKINSON\u2019S LANDING at FOUR P.MA.ANDERSON, President.A.STICKLER, Purser.ENDERS WANTED.\u2014Tecnders will be received, in writing, up to the 14th instant, at 12 noon, for the providing of dinners at the approaching Show of Huntingdon Agricultural Socicty No.1.The Society will give the lessee the entire use of the Dining Hall for both days.No tender will be considered under $40.Tenders to state charge for dinners to Judges and officials of the Socicty.Tenders to be loft with Mr Daniel Boyd, Huntingdon.D.M'farlane, Secy.-Trens.INSOLVENT ACT OF 1869, AND AMENDMENTS THERETO.In the matter of CYRILLE GUIMOND, of the town of Beauharnois, merchant and trader, Insolvent, I tho undersigned, D.A.St, Amour, have Leen ap- 9 pointed Assignee in this matter.Creditors are requested to file their claims before me, within one month.D.A.Sr.AMOUR, Assignee.Beauharnois, July 20, 1875.ANTED.\u2014An experienced teacher is wanted for the Protestant Dissenticnt School, District No.4, Bt Anicet, holding a first class diploma.Salas $160 per term of 10 months.Apply immediately to Auex.Fanauson, Cazaville P.O., Que.ARM FOR SALE.\u2014100 acres being north half of Lot No.5, second concession of Elgin.Seventy acres are under cultivation, the rest in b and pasture.There is a house and new outbuildings thereon, For particulars apply to JAMES HAMILTON, Kelso.JO8, 8, TANGUAY, Bailiff Bupetior Court Beau- harnois, St Anicet, Will take charge of collections in addition to his business as Bailiff.OTIORN.\u2014Tho undersigned hereby requests all those who are inde to him by mortgage, note, or otherwise, to pay Mr Somerville, Hunting- don, who has full power to collect and discharge all sums due me, ArcHiBALp McKELLAR.Ormstown, July 14.: OOL WANTED, ~The subscriber will pay CASH for wool.ANDREW OLIVER, Rockburn, ARM POR SALR.\u2014DBeing the East half of Lot No, 10, 4th Range, Township of Godman.chester, within {wo and a half miles of Huntingdon.propriete easy.per farther particulars apply to tho or on { mises.pre JAMES McCARTNEY.Huntingdon, July 15.NTIMATION.\u2014Mn P.HAY, Silk Dyer, Hunt- existing Governments, and thab none of the than - Works.Second to none in the Doabiament District is challenged to make Agricultura) Im;
