a French service in the nave of Westminster-abbey, designed for the benefit of the foreigners who are now visiting the metropolis.Such a service was never before, it is believed, held in the Abbey, and a large number of people were attracted by the ceremony.\u2014A collision occurred on Monday, June 9 th, on the London, Chatham, and Dover Railway, in the tunnel at Chatham-bill, near the Chatham station, between two heavy excursion trains, which resulted in several persons being severely injured.Great Land-Ship near Lyme-Rbgis.\u2014Early in the afternoon of the 28th ult, a great land-slip took place on the coast between Lyme-Regis and C harmouth.Several men and boys were at work in gardens on and near the spot, and one boy es caped with his life by jumping over the cracks as they opened under him, as in an earthquake.A woman who was near at the time was so terrified that she threw herself flat upon the ground.Her fright may well be excused, for half-a-dozen acres of land marching off bodily, must be a strange sight, and one not altogether devoid of the terrible.A man, who was close at hand, describes the noise as having been \u201c like a thousand thunders.\u201d \u2022\t.\u2014\tA bequest of £3,000 by Mr.Guthrie Davidson, has been handed over to the High 'School, Dundee.\u2014\tLord Dartmouth has made a munificent offer to assign, as a recreation ground for the inhabitants of Westbromwich, a piece of ground adjoining the railway station, 22 acres in extent.This he places at the public disposal, on the town paying for it a nominal rent charge of 40s a year.His lordship\u2019s pjjposition was brought before the Board of Commissioners last week, when it was ol course most thankfully received.\u2014\tAnother tragedy has been discovered to have been enacted at No ] 89, Blacltfriars-road, which closely resembles the one that recently took place in Ludgate-street, near St.Paul\u2019s, with the exception that, instead of the two children having been murdered by their mother, who afterwards attempted suicide, iu this case two chtldren\u2014fine young girls of the age of four and seven years respectively \u2014were in the first instance poisoned by their father, who afterwards destroyed his own life by plunging a carving knife into various parts of his body.\u2014\tA waterspout appeared lately near Liverpool.It was seen from the North Landing-stage, over Bidstone-hill, and must have been seen over the principality of Wales for some time.Its extent upwards was of great length, in a serpentine form.It was discharging a dense cloud, and was seen by many from the stage until a dark cloud obscured it.\u2014Prince Alfred is to stand godfather to Capt.Tarleton\u2019s little\u2019boy.It was under Captain Tarleton\u2019s command that

to France in the eight months ending April, I860, to have beep £6,017,018, and those in the eight months ending April, 1862, to have been £13,796,269,\u2014that is to say, our exports to France have more than doubled since the Treaty.The principal figures are contained in the following table :\u2014 Eight Months from September to April inclusive.1859-60.1860-61.1861-62.£ £ £ British and tl'leb

cent, exclusive of the exceptional exports of corn.It is to be considered also that France, in consequence of her deficient harvests, has lately been a worse customer for articles other than food than she is likely to be iu future.Again, it may be objected that the commerce shown by the above is not an expqrt of opr own productions to Branpe, but a re-export of commodities previously imported from abroad.The extent of the intermediate trade is certainly remarkable.Of the corn and flour we have already spoken.Of other articles we re-exported 1859-60.1861-62 Raw silk,., ,£9fl,5Q9 £2,950,658

annum, with £5,000 a year of allowances, and a house worth £3,000 to £7,000 without allowances, hut with the house.What\u2019s in a name ?\u2014As even in \u201cthis Canada\u201d we have occasionally applications from \u201cweaker brethren\u201d to the Legislature to change their patronymics, the following extract from the Times\u2019 report of the proceedings in the British House of Commons, on the night of the 5th inst., may be found instructive as well as entertaining Mr.Roebuck rose to put several questions to the Home Secretary.He said,\u2014It appears there is a young gentleman in Wales of the name of Jones.(Laughter.) This young gentleman was lately seized with a desire to change his name.Probably the reputation which Brown, Jones, and Robinson have obtained conduced to that wish.He assumed the more aristocratic name of Herbert, and, under legal advice, made it public, by advertising that he, had taken this step.Like a great many other gentlemen in this country, he was exceedingly anxious to pay his respects to his sovereign ; but was informed that he could not do so because he had changed his name without Royal license.Like the rest of his countrymen, he was desirous of giving his aid to the protection of his country, and of joining the militia ; but Lord Llanover, the Lori-Lieutenant, would not receive him as a militiaman on account of his change of name.There still remained that honourable course of usefulness which belongs to our English country gentlemen, aud he wished to have his name put on the commission of tlie peace.The Lord-Lieutenant, however, declined to apply to the Lord Chancellor to inserthis name for the reason just mentioned.It has been said that the Home Secretary used his authority to asst -t the Lord-Lieutenant in preventing this gentleman, in these three separate instances, from indulging his very proper desires as a country gentleman.I hope that is not the case, as I should be sorry to see the power of the Secretary of State used for the purpose of personal spite, or of aiding any body of public functionaries iu obtaining fees for useless forms.I\tlay it down as a rule of law that every mau has the right to take what name he pleases, and 1 will quote my authorities.The following have been the decisions.(Mr.Roebuck read several.) One was : \u201c It has been said tha' persons are not received at Court if their names are chinged without a Royal licence.There is nothing to sustain this opinion.No public officer connected with the Court would assume to' establish a rule contradictory of what the judges have declared to be law, unless he were a Lord Chamberlain of the type of Polonius or a Court fool.\u201d When I look around me I observe many persons who have changed their names, and have had that change recognized by the House.It happens, I believe, that Mr.Jones, of Clytha, has a cousin of an elder branch, who married the daughter of Lord Llanover, and thereupon changed his name to Herbert, in the belief that it was a name which that elan of Jones might properly assume.When this took place it is said that Lord Llanover wrote to Mr.Sidney Herbert, asking whether he had any objection.Mr.Sidney Herbert\u2019s reply was, ihat \u201che could oppose no impediment to the assumption of his family name, but that be hoped it was not the in-.' tention of all persons of the name of Jones in Wales to became Herberts.\u201d (Laughter.) Lord Llanover supposed, I presume, that that terrible change of names which Mr, Herbert upprehem)-ed had fairly set in when the second i\\{r.Jones took the same çqupse as the first.(A laugh.) But whatever Lord Llanover\u2019s fear he had no right to adopt the course he has done.The young gentlerqan hal a right to call himself Brown.He chose to call himself Herbert, and, in consequence of h's audqcity in taking the same aristocratic name which had been adopted by his son-in-law, Lord Llapover interferes, and enlists iqtQ tfle service the greater power of the Secretary of State.1 think that this is a very disgraceful proceeding I want to see any law-yer bold enough to say that to a change of name a Royal licence is necessary.1 wish to ask the Home Secretary whether i(r.Jones, ofOlytha, has assumed the name ol: Herbert without a Royal licence 7 Whether he is aware that, in consequence of such change of name, the Lord Chamberlain has refnsed to permit him (Mr, .j,.I,to bo ;.i-,.,.ti,V Oou.rt?- wV\\etb,er he is aware that for the same reason the authoaitiuAat the Horse Guards have refused to sanction the appointment of Mr.Jones to the Militia?whether he is aware that he has himself refused to ask the Lord Chancellor to place Mv- Jones, in the name of Herbert, qn the commission of the peace ?and, whether he is aware tfiat such conduct on the part of the Lord Chamtieriain, the Horse Guards, and hiïRseif, L contrary to law ?Sir G.Grey\u2014I have taken no part in tflij matter, except to acknowledge the receipt of a letter from Lord Llanover, transmitting me his correspondence with Mr.Joues.I do not know whether Mr.Jones has assumed the name of Herbert or not ; all I-know is that he has not applied for a Royal licence.I am not aware that the Lord Chamberlain has refused tq permit him to be presented, qqp do I think such can l;e ffle cqse, Because the change of name took place in March, and there has been no opportunity for his presentation.I do not know that the case has been before the Horse Guards.The names of officers of the Militia are submitted upon the recommandatiqu of the Lord Lieutenant, whq, in this instance, refused to give that recommendation.1 have not refused to ask the Lord Chancellor to place Mr.Jones on the commission of the peace.The practice is for the Lord-Lieutenant to recommend county magistrates.I was wholly unaware of this case except from a letter whioh I received from Lord Llanover, but I am requested by Lord Llanover to state that he did apply at the office of the Secretary of State to know whether commissions must be made out in the real names of the persons to whom they are granted, iu answer to which he was told that they must.There is no doubt that a gentleman may change his name, and if the change is permanent, may reoeive a commission in his new name.It appears from the correspondence that iu the first instance Mr.Jones asked to be recommended for a commission in the Militia.The Lord-Lieutenant undertook to make the recommendation ; but he afterwards received an intimation that Mr.Jones wished the regommendation to be suspended un- II\tfie was of age.With that request the Lord-Lieutenant complied, and on the 22d last December Mr.Jones wrote to say that his father had expressed a wish to change his name to Herbert, and he therefore requested that the Lord-Lieutenant would qbtain his commission in that name.4!thqugh the law is as stated by the hon.and learned geqtleman, it is not competent to any one to write to the Horse Guards on Monday and say that his name is Jones, and he wishes that in the next Jinny List it should appear as Herbert, and on Tuesday say Roehuok, or anything else-Qoiqnei Cliflbrd explained the circumstances un.dor which the Lord-Lieutenant hid acted, showing that bis Lordship had been animated by a sense of duty alone, and by no hostile feeling towards the, would be, Mr.Herbert-ap-Jones.DUBARRY\u2019 S Delicious HEALTH RESTOR INL REVALENTA ARABICA POOD restores perfect Ui-gestion, strong nerves, sound lungs, healthy liver, refreshing sleep, and functional regularity to the most disordered or enfeebled without medicine, purging of Expense, removing speedily and effectually indigestion, (dyspepsia), habitual constipation, hæmorrhoids, liver complaints, flatulency, diarrhoea, dysentery, nervousness, biliousness, scarlatina and other fevers, sore throughts, catarrhs, colds, influenza, whooping cough, dyptheria, measles, chicken and small çoeks, noises in the head and ears, rheumatism, gout, impurities, eruptions, hysteria, neuralgia, irritability, sleeplessness, acidity, palpitation, heartburn, headache, do bility?dropsy, despondency, cramps, spasms, nausea and sickness, sinking, fits, cough, asthma, bronchitis, consumption, scrofula, tightness of the chest, pains at the pit of the stomach and between the shoulders, &c., atrophy or wasting away of the body in old and young.Avoid Pills and Medicine;

take to be an agreement on the part of the United States to advance in some shape the sum necessary for paying off the claims made upon Mexico by the European Governments, with a further stipulation of assistance in some form to Mexico, to get nd of her troublesome creditors.This treaty, we suppose, moreover, is a kind of counterpart to those made by Mexico with England and Spain, after these two powers had withdrawn from the invasion, and bad accepted the promises of the Mexican Government to pay its debts and indemnify those who had suffered damage from it.That at icast was understood to he the arrangement when the treaty LDcly rejected was made ; and though it is not probable that the source whence the fund was to be derived, was mentioned as a substantive part of the agreement between Mexico, Spain and ; England, there is little reason to doubt that : these two powers are in some sense parties to the other treaty, and that they will gain if it can .he carried out, to this extent that the Mexicans ; will be able to fulfil their undertaking at once, instead of postponing the fuifiiment to an uncer-ttin time.We presume that the United States takes some kind of security, probably of a territorial kind, for its pecuniary assistance.Bat there are several reasons which may well deter the Senate at this moment from ratifying the treaty.In the first place they do not find it too easy LI raise enough money to carry on tbeir own war and to escape from their own troubles ; nor are they in a position to do more in a- military wav than is required of them for the purpose of suppressing the existing rebellion.But it is tolerably certain that Louis Napoleon is not to he got rid of from Mexico as readily A3 thp Cockney hater of mnsic disposes of the itinerant ¦ «winder of melody, With the donation of a copper on condition that the organ is moved to tjie next street.To ratify the treaty is, therefore, either to indicate a desire to follow a certain line of policy without the force to parry it through ; or on the other hand to carry out ^ policy which must bring the Federal» into collision witp tba French and make the latter the allies of the Confederates.The alternative cannot be an agreeable one to contemplate,and it geyms to ns that the most probable action of the Senate will be to postpone any action if possible till some important result shall take place before Richmond, and then act according to the circumstances of the day.To ratify the treaty appears so far as we can guess at its contents, to be very like a defiance to the French Emperor, whose friendliness our neighbours will thus probably have a good opportunity of contrasting with the supposed hostility of John Bull.ness and consideration which you have invariably shown to all who have been employed under you ; and with mingled feelings of admiration and regret we tender you this very inadequate offering, in testimony of our sincere respect and regard.Mr.Stanley replied as follows ;\u2014 Mr.Elliott and my other kind friends,\u2014I have difficulty in finding words wherein to thank you for this very complimentary address, or to express how highly 1 value this -written evidence of your esteem ; and when I remember that it does not emanate from yourselves alone, hut that you are assembled here this evening as the representatives of many of your associates, whom circumstances have prevented from attending, as also of nearly 3000 warm-hearted working men, I feel, as 1 have a right to feel, very proud indeed I shall ever treasure this handsome document as a precious record of the good-will of my fellow-labourers in an arduous undertak ng, and as evidence of the existence, between all classes of the Comps ny\u2019s servants, of that spirit of unanimity and cerdiality, which is so indtspensible to success in railway working.My gratification at receiving so numerously signed and so handsomely decorated an address, too, is not a little increased when I call to mind that the signature it bears are pot thoes only of persons from every Parish and Township on the line of the Grand Trunk Trunk from Riviere du Loup, to Sarnia and London, but that the United States also are represented in it, for l trust to be able, to recognize in its ample pages many familiar names from Maine, Yermo-t and New HamspHre in the East, and Michigan in the West.My appreciation of the value I place upon this handsome testimonial cannot he better exptessed than in the words you Mr.Elliot have just used in presenting it to me, when speaking of the price *\u2022 be

JvfSrJii (1\tFnrrlîah mon o do rr London, June 13, 1862.To say that this vast metropolis is crowded with visitors, British and foreign, and to an extint hitherto unprecedented in its annals, that it looks prodigiously pract cal, energetic, dingy and dowdy, to eyes accustomed to the brightness, out-of-door life, and the flânerie and flowers of Paris, would only be to tell my distant readers what they know already must be the case.To add that the \u201c Society for the promotion of Social Science,\" with Lord Brougham at its head a mass of aristocratic, monied, literary, and artistic celebrities in its body, and, in its tail, a host of humbler individuals, anxious to benefit the world in connexion with the members aforesaid, is holding its Sixth Annual Meeting in this town, and \u201c doing up\u201d an amazing amount of reading, speaking, listening, committee-meetings, conferences, dinners, and full-dress soirees ; and that the new \u201c International Congress for Doing Good\u201d is holding its third session here, and zealously emulating the doings of its rival, would also be to repeat what your pages will no doubt have already told ; though a gentle reminder of these facts may help to enable readers to arrive at a more correct idea of the bustle and stir which pervades London, at this present writing.This will show too the impossibility of finding any mortal

either of the two benevolent Maelstroms in question, going early to Capt.Fowkes\u2019 ugly building, and spending the entire day in the interesting but most laborious employment of inspecting the marvellous collections of industrial, mechanical, and artistic treasures, gathered from almost every point of the earth\u2019s surface, within its walls.The edifice, which has immortalized the gallant and learned Captain as one who has had, and missed, what the French call \u201c a grand opportunity,\u201d has walls of yellow, raw luulring bricks, roofed and domed with glass and iron.Its front is on the Cromwell road, whence its main body runs up to tlie gardens of the Royal Horticultii al Society, on which it opens ; and its two stumpy wings just clip the corners of the gardens at their South-Eastern and South-Western extremities.A couple of annexes, forming a continuation of these two wings, run along the rest of the West and East sides of the garden, terminating at the end of the fine conservatory wnich stands at its Northern end.The central nave is terminated by a vast rotunda and dome at either end ; the transept terminating at the South in \u201c the central tower,\u201d and at the North, giving entrance to the garden aforesaid.The placing of the two great domes at the two ends of the transept, has completely spoiled the appearance and effect of the latter,\"by destroying the effects of perspective that would t ave imparted, i ut for this op ical blunder, a certain grandeur to the coup dœit, obtainable tronr this p rtion of the building.For these two great rotundas, flooded with light, shorten and widen the lines of perspective so effectually qt their extremity to the gazer\u2019s eye, that it is impossible to persuada that organ that ,he nave is more than about one tithe of its real length.Nor is this the only blunder by which the apparent size of the edifice is re need to the eye.The ribs, girders and pillars are painted with Strang snd glaring red and blue, which bring them ail into apparent proximity With the visual organs of the spectator, the building is, moreover, extremely compact in the distribution of its aisles, courts and galleries, a quality not without its value as diminishing the labour of going from one point to another, but which dimi-minishes proportionately the grandiose effects of its atrial Jïrcs.Imagine the stout, short proportions of the intetfor/so vtyfdjy oajnted, so cap i-ciou'sly interfered with py thé two vast domes at either end of the naye, blocked by trophies, cut off by partirions, and crammed

of statnre, with a very stiff shirt-collar, and an equal amiount of starch in his manner, stood upon a table and delivered a regular-built lecture ou \u201cMemory/\u2019 which Lord Brougham having listened to a few of the opening sentences, with various little frowns and con emptuous twhebings, presently walked away from, betaking himself to another room.There was also a refreshment-table, Uid

grand dinner on Monday ; thus closing their doings for the present year ; leaving the field clear tor the Exhibition, the examination of whose contents will be attempted in my next.Butler\u2019s Proclamation in Europe\u2014An able correspondent of the Tribune, writing from Paris, says that Butler\u2019s proclamation about the ladies at New Orleans will do the cause of the United States more harm in the opinion of Europe than the taking of the city will do it good.It adds that Americans may jndge of what kind of feeling such a proclamation produces in Europe by remembering the sentiments created in the United States by the war upon women made' by Haynau and other generals in Italy.-He thinks, moreover, that the bestfriends of theUnited States in Europe cannot but believ 5 that the Federal Government is befogged, when it sees that with one hand it ranks with the lowest of mankind women who may turn up their pretty noses at, or withdraw their dainty skirts fron, the presence of a Union soldier, and yet will return Union men who happen to be black, unless they run away with a ship, like the man who carried off the Planter, to the tender mt rcies of these fair but violent and vindictive rebels.Actios befork Charleston.\u2014The accounts by telegraph to-day, of a* action near Charleston, refer, as others have done, to the engagement of which we had news through Soutfeara

another encounter being hazarded for the present.It will be seen that the General in charge has been arrested for attacking against orders.His superior officer has trouble with the nigger haters among his officers, who refuse to command blacks, though they do not mind attacking fortifications built by them.Health op Mr.Justice Aylwin.\u2014We are happy to say that Mr.Justice Aylwin has returned to

Herald.Sir,\u2014A \u201c Tax Payer\u201d complains, in his communication dated Rawdon, June 24th, which appeared in your yesterday\u2019s issue, that the semiannual grant to the School Commissionera of Bawdon, for the six months ending on the 1st of January last, was paid only in the momh of April, but why he does not explain.The following facts will answer tor him In the first place th® law provides\u2014Consolidated Statutes Chap.15, sec.SO, that\u2014\u201c To entitle any School to its allowance out of the General or Local School Fund, it shall be requisite that a Keport signed by the majority of the School Commissioners or Trustees, and by the Teacher, shall be transmitted to the Superintendent of Education, according to the form prescribed by him for that purpose, every six months, that is to say, before the first day of July and the first day of January in each year.\u201d Now, the Report from the Commissioner.» of Rawdon was only transmitted by them on the 14th April, and on the following day the cheque in payment of their share of the grant was mailed to their address.Thus it is clear that if any delay has occurred in the ease, the Commissioners have themselves to blame.As for the other remarks contained in the communication of your correspondent, I presume they were pot intended to elicit a reply.ONE WHO KNOWS.Montreal, 27th June, 1862, as seen from tbs galleries (R thp pressing ot the Nave and Transept, with objects of every arise, form, height and color, and some idea may be formed of the effect at once, brilliant, rich, confused, bewildering and imposing, presented by the Great Industrial show of 1862.The absence of the trees and fountains that gave so charming an air to the Crystal Palace of 1861 the want of perspective, and also partly the lacko the novelty that constituted so delightful ; feature in thé first international Exhibition, all lend to produce a certain feeling of disappointment on first entering the Industrial Palace of 1S62.But as soon as the mind cm begin to lake cognisance of details, the great superiority of the present show to any of its predecessors, becomes apparent.In every department, from that of Haw Materials, and of Machinery, to the marvellous displays of porcelain, jewellery, lace, and singing birds, the advance that has been made during the last gpyefj yearg hj# gnajjled eyhioi-tors to utterly eetipse'tbe most briUjant tfippaplis ,f the Paris Exhibition.In this advanee nearly j all the members of the Euronean family seem to have shared, though not to the same extent in all branches.The leadership of Modern Industry still belongs to Great Britain and to France Both have made gigantic strides since they last measured stiengtli with each other and with the rest of the world ; the formel, w]}?!?developing yet more widely her uriparallelled power of production, having gained immensely in\u2019artistic 'grace atm \u2018fanpy ; the latter in whom these qualities are more brilliantly evident than ever, having lai gely increased her productive pow\u2019-i.Put the old balance still remains ; the grace and elegance of France in all that pertains to the infusion of artistic charm into the higher objects \u201cof every'day life, giving her an incontestable superiority ip these branches ; while the superiority of Great Britain, in point of mjantity, sclidity, variety, and cheapness, js her,er depjopstrated with a weight of practical proof that is ai&psi driving ohr pleasant rivals to despair.\u201c My visit to your terrible capital has taken all heart out of me,\u201d said a great French manor two W@ aje, in comnarison with the Eng-v-cta ftjj mdtiïitrjal point of view, a nation of children.Tim with you, as manufacturers, is simply an .' cination ; it would be a struggle between pigmies and giants.You have both the talent and the instinct of work ; we have neither.We are children, playing with tools ; you are men, working in earnest.I am so entirely cominced that France, with all the charming grace and artistic tact of her children, in certain branches of production, can never compete with England on the broad field of general industry, that I am half tempted to leave my country, and transport my establishment to England.Nor am I alone in this feeling ; all the Frenchmen of my acquaintance who have seen the present Exhibition, declare, as i do, tlat, thanks to Mr.Uobden and his fatal treaty, there is nothing left for Frenchmen who desire to work iq earnest, but to come over to this country, and make themselves Englishmen !\u201d Without taking so extreme a view of the case as that expressed by the gentleman in question, in the bitterness of lus driappoipttnenti is difficult to compare the results of modern industry among the various nations here represented, without arriving at the conviction that, while other countries may excel us in certain specialties, more or less valuable as items of the general weabh of the world, the productive power of Great Britain is immeasurably greater than that of any, other member of the human family, in strength, width, and elasticity The hard work of the world might lie, and will probably long continue to lie, on*th,e lusty shoulders of British artisans ; and it will lie lightly, and the responsibilities of the task will be well, an,d cheerfully performed.The only other country the build of whose people could enable it to rival us as a great producing power, is Italy.The Italians, âs seen on a nearer acquaintance, and at home, are found to possess an amount of practical tact, good se sa sell control, perseveram e, energy, and outlook, that make them with al} thpir artistic fire, more tike Englishmen than any otfrer people ; hut the long despotism under which they have bpen held down, has kept their industrial 'endepcies in abeyance, apd jts effects pjust necessarily impede their efforts for some time to come.The Italian Exhibition of last autumn showed tj}e breadth and elasticity of their productive power, taking by Surprise not only their foreign visitors, but themselves ; pnfl there can be little doubt that a few years\u2019 of \u2019 freedom and good government will see Italian industry piepariqg to take among its neighbours, a very different relative position from that which it holds at present, though the ciprtins of out-of-door life, and the lack of coal, will propahly prevent Italy from pe»C.hing the point of industrial development to widen tfie latent energies of her people might, under other conditions of climate and of geological formation, enable her to attej.p, The \u201cSocial Science Association,\u201d and srhat the Londoners absurdly pail \u201cThe Congrès,\u201d as though the well-intepfipped rose would not

This interesting ceremony took place, as announced, at 3 o\u2019clock on Saturday afternoon in the hall of the Normal School, Belmont street.The room was well filled with the boys and 'heir friends.There were present on the plat form, the Hon Mr.Ferrier, Chairman ; Mr Davidson, one of tne Governors ; Principal Dawson, H.A.Howe, M.A., Rev.Dr.Leach, Professors Cornish and Darey, Messrs.Gibson, Baynes, Kemp, Markland, Reid, Andrews, and Thorborn (of Farmersvilie, C.W.), and Mr.Perkins, President of the High School r ociety.\\Ye also observed Messrs.Bridges, Macdufl) Mitchell, S.Brown, Davidson, Parker, and others among the audience.Hon.Mr.FERRIER took the chair at 3 o'clock, and called upon the Rev.Hr.LEACH to open the meeting with prayer.'The Rector, H.A.HOWE, M.A., then proceeded to give the usual accouut of the- School\u2019s progress duripg the past Session.The present ceremony was the nineteenth of the kind since the foundation of the School, the ninth since the affiliation with McGill College, and the fourteenth under his hands.Since the affiliation with McGill College, the Governors had exerted themselves to the utmost to improve the School in every respect.It was an interesting question to ask what the High School had done for education generally.When he walked through the streets he was greeted by middle ag-d men, who had once attended the school.The certificates of good conduct, &c , which the school granted, were also much valued, and he was frequently applied to fur these certificates, by young men who were entering business.Many employers in Montreal would not engage young men unless they had certificates showing where they had been educated.There was also another question, namely, what the Hign School had done lor mcprill College.Upon looking rhrough the Calender of the University for the past year, he feund that in the Faculty of Arts, out of 40 students, 26 had.commenced their education in the High School.This was a large proportion, but he hoped the number would increase.He might say indeed that tney woul be able, next Sep tember, to send from the sixth form to the College, M s-sudepts\u2014a uspch larger nutpher than had ever been sent from the High School before, fhe greatest number at the school during the pastsessiou had been 279.This number he regretted to say, however, was not sufficient to enable the Governors or Managers of the School to meet the expenses of the School It was a matter of regret that such a school was not self-supporting.It was not right for them to have to draw rrcjig the College.If those who were interested in the ffigh School, and whose sons had been educated at that Institution would enj.rt themselves and persuade others to send their children also, thjs state of things would nqt exist He saw very sjpali ppopfirtiop of the 2 \u201d9 he spoke of present.Many had doubtless left the eity with their families, but there were others who thought that they were under uo obligation to be present at the closing ceremony.If a boy had not been successful in the compétition for prizes, still ne ought to be present at their uistribution in order to seo those who had been successful, receive their awards.He (Mr.HOWE) had indetd thought of postponing the distribution of prizes until Septemb.P, when the pupils would re-as-semble.Alexander R.MaCDUFF was to receive the Gold Medal this year.(Applause.) Mr.HuWE also alluded to the fact of High School boys having for many years taken the \"Medals at McGill College.Ross toqk the Chapman medal at the last Convocation, and Ramsay the Prince of Wales\u2019medal.He then proceeded to read the following RR[|E A'gp HOROpR piST- Session 19.61\u2014-2-SIXTH FORM\u2014-(UA Alexander K.MAcbüFF, of the tchool) and Davidson, Medallist.Latin.\u2014X Macduff, 2 McCord, 3 Anderson.Gree! \u20141 Bethune, 2 Macduff, 3 Smith.English.- -1 Lanigan, 2 Macduff, 3 Chipman.French \u20141 Lanigan, 2 Perrigo, 3 Chipman.German.\u2014 1 Chipman.History.\u20141 Macduff, 2 Perrigo, 3 Lanigan.Geography.\u20141 Muirduff, 2 Bethune, 3 Perrigo.Algebra.-!

\u201c Jack Frost.\u201d The several performances were very creditable, and were loudly applauded.J.A.Perkins, Esq , B C.Iq., President of the Hign School Society, also took the opportunity ot presenting the Society's Medal to Andrew James Simpson, Dux of the Third Form.Mr.Peikins said ;\u2014 I take great pleasure in presenting this medal to you as the most profi rient scholar ot the Third Form of the High School, n the study of Canadian History and Geography, and I trust that you will take as great pride at its reception as I take in now handing it to you, and that you will wear it with honour.It is the gift of the High School Society of Montreal, a Society composed of young men who, as yourself and the boys now present are, ive'e formerly attendants, scholars and schoolmates at the High School, and who fi.led the seats you now occupy.Yon are the fortunate recipient of this small token of our regard an;i the interest we ia!te in the school wüere we passed many hours neper to be forgotten, apd I sincerely hope that yoii, with the less successful 0 the candidates, may never forget or lay aside the study of the History a- d Geography of Canada, to us all the most important country in the world, as our compion home.This medal will, in future years, bear testimony to 'your efforts, ahi} |ie a pptilq ge^rdfn of your well earned victore.^ r _ l.heartily strive next year fofrihe medal, and that, though not-successful to-dfy, they will not ne daunted, but with renewed study, spirit, and application, persevere and daily learn more and more.A good beginning makes a good ending, and we cannot but anticipate a rich harvest for him who takes advantage of the Spring time to sow the early seed, and a noble victory does the scholar gain who, in early life, lays a good foundation for the studies of more mature yeprs.Our Society takes gfeat pleasure; and feels honored in being present to-day, when the' rewards of merit ale presented, and we look back with mingled pleasure and regret on our school days, anri would here pay tribute to tijesç masters who, with praisewdrtjiy and unceasing care, tutored our youthful mipds; thank them for their pains, and assure them that they will ever be re-mepiljertf}, apd in after years lipnpured by their former pupils.We trust as our Society increases yearly, to do more and more to aid and assist our old school, and we beg to assure those now in charge that it will ever be our earnest endeavours to forward the interests of this Institution, and hope that'these yoitng men now about to leave the school, as having finished their scholastic course, wil] enlist in the ranks of this Society, and share in the labor of love.PR1NC1FAL DAWSON then rose to address the hoys.They might remember that when he spoke to them last year, he alluded to the subject of \u201c being manly,\u201d and pointed out to them that it was not manly to neglect 'heir duties ana so on, but it was' manly to endeavour to improve themselves, to be kind to one another, to he self-denying, to serve God, and to he very much afraid of doing anything wumg- He hoped they had not forgotten those things, if thèy knew how very important the subjec's they studied would be 10 them in after life ; if they knew how hard it was to keep np such a good school, and to supply it with teachers, they would be more attentive to their studies, and more thankful fo-the advantages they enjoyed.Some of tlam thought they had very hard work at the High School, and it was only right that the work should pot fee 50 hard M tq injure either the mind or the body of any student.\u201cBut it was also necessary that a certain amount of hard work should be done.In some countries they could do wiihout any schooling at all, but that was not the case in civitized countries.As countries became more ciyili^ed there w uld always be more things to be learned, and in a little while it wouid be impossible to give a complete education unless children were left longer at school Young people were launched into the business of the world at too early an age, and particularly in this country where there were so many opportunities 0 obtaining employment.It had been said that boys in this generation were wiser than old men in old times.But however this might he, he had always found that with a very few exceptions, young men could not think independently for themselves until they had arrived at least at the age of sixteen years'.They were not disposed ~ to d» so, and could not apply good sound reason.He hoped the boys would take the advice pf the Rector, and asWnany of them as possible continue tbeir stu
