immense '\u2019assemblage «(blocked np tbe doors of tbe new Court-house fiom a very early boar, and awaited very anxiously the opening of the doors Stokes was brought from the Tombs at half-past nine o\u2019clock in a close carriage to the Shnrifi\u2019ii Office, where he was kept awaiting hie removal to tbe Court.At 10 30, District Attorney Garvin made his appearance, followed by the Counsel for the prisoner.Judge Ingraham came into the Court soon after, and at 10.30 tbe crier opened the Court, whereupon District Attorney Garvin rose and moved for the arraignment of Edwin 8 Stokes for mnrder.The clerk then Qpked the prisoner to stand up, and he pat to him the formal question as to what pit-.» be wonld interpose to the indictment.Stokes arose and faced tho Coart£in a firm, unwavering manner, and gave no answer io the question asked to him, being requested by his counsel to remain silent.He looked wearied aed anxious, and seamed to have changed greatly since bis

dntie* exacted.Mr.Hazaid, of Buffxlo, explained that it was only a system of tbe United States, that all in vices bo eunnrvUed by a Consul, and he charges whitever his regular fee may be.The Consul*!) certificate must accompany the in-vice, and it-was only a disadvantage when the invices were small.Mr Imlich objected to the resolntion as the Consuls were a benefit to the merchant*, instead of a drawback, anil not only that, bnt tbe United S'ates had their own system of ap pointing Consuls, and regulating their feta, and this Board had no right to interfere with them.Mr.Ja'vis said that there was some misunderstanding somewhere, as the regular consular chargee were not exhorbitant, being only 50, and for an invoice under $100, and 250 for an invoice over that amount.Hon.John Young viewed consular appoint menis throughout the world as a positive advantage and benefit to commerce.Mr.McGHHvray proposed the withdrawal of the resolution.Mr.Smith, after explaining that it was only a question delegated to thicn by the St.John Board of Trade, withdrew his motion.It was then moved by the Hon.John Young seconded by Mr.£MoLennao, that it be an instruction to the Executive Council of the Dominion Board of Trade to appoint a delegation to confer with tho Executive Commit tee of the United States Board of Trade on trade relations between the United States and the Dominion at their contemplated meeting at Washington in February next.Mr.Fry thought it would only be an act of justice to the Board and to tbe gentlemen who would be appointed os delegates, that tbe opt nion of tbe meeting on the trade relations be tween Canada aud the United States should bo ascertained.Hon.John Young spoke at some length in favor of the free trade between Canada and tbs United States, and explained the benefit that would occur to this country if areclprocil trade or zollverein was established once more between the two conotries.Mr.Howland was very mnch pleased to hear a candid expression of opinion from tbe Hon.Mr John Young in favor of a aillverein ; but while he anprecinttd the vast amount of good Hon.Mr.Yonng had done in the past, he was sorry to say he diffttred entirely from him on this subject.When at the National Board of Trade meeting of St.Louis, although they found that the Americans treated them with the .utmost courtesy, they would coincide nothing and wonld only have free trade on their own conditions.They wonld have an imposition of dnties on certain ariiclui, and the naming of what they were ; also, the collection of monies seeming from them.He thonght if we pat oat of onr hands the control of onr fiscal affairs wo wonld lose the government of onr country.(Applause.) Deserving a?we did to live as a separate power on this continent the delegates from the Dominion Board conld not agree to a proposition which, on the very face of it, forced ns into annexation to the United States in a few years.He would say in diecassing the matter with the members of the National Board that they found that the main idea in their minds was that this Dominion must yet fall into their hands and be a portion of the United States, and they wonld not listen to him when he asserted »> at this country was determined to maintain itself as a separate nation.All the Dominion delegates differed from tbe Hon.Mr.Yonug, and they had done tbeir best to Impress the people of the United States that although they were willing to enter into closer commercial relations with them we did not wish for or intend te have any closer relations politically.(Appl&nss.) After some farther remarks he moved in amendment, seconded by Mr.Robert Read, that In the opinion of this Board the alterations in onr trade relations a ith the United States, proposed in resolutions carried by the Nitional Board of Trade, conld not be entertained, so far as the idea of a ^ollverin is concerned, but we wonld express at the same time our most cordial willingness to negotiate with the United States for the purpose of relieving trade between the two countries, if nil restrictions interfering with the légitimité proeoentionof trade in so far as may found beneficial to the interests of eaefi country.Mr.Morrin supported Mr.Young\u2019s vi«r° in favor of a Zollverein, aud he was follqwed by Mr.Imlecb, who was strpqgly opposed to Montuxal.Jsn.18\u2014Stocks\u2014Only moderately active.Bank of Montreal sold 238J down to 237, closing, bayera, 237;
