that Anne, who wedded in 1812 a man of nothing\u2014an officer ¥\u2019 Precisely so.\u2018She must have no small amount of impudence to present herself here, before à respectable family.\u2019 \u2018The more so, as sister Egrie, of no- Lle birth, had never forgiven her for that misalliance.\u2019 Anne moved at this time across the room in which the family of the deceased were assembled, She was pale; ber fine eyes were filled with tears, and her face was furrowed by care with precocious wrinkles.*What do you come here for ?\u2019 said Madame de Villeboys, with great haughtiness, who a moment before had been interrogating the little man who inherited with her.we have \u2018Madame,\u2019 the poor lady replied with humility, *I do not come here to claim a part of what does not belong to me ; I ceme solely to see M.Dubois, my poor sister\u2019s solicitor, to inquire if she epoke of me at her last hour.\u2019 What ! do you think people busy themselves about you?\u2019 arrogantly observed Madame de Villeboys; \u2018the disgrace of a great house\u2014you, who wedded a man of nothing, a soldier of Bonaparte.\u2019 \u2018Madame, my husband, although a child of the people, was a brave soldier, and, what is better, an honest man,\u2019 observed Anne.At this moment a venerable personage, the notary Dubois, made his appearance.\u2018Cease,\u2019 he said, \u2018to reproach Anne with a union which her sister has forgiven her.Anne loved a generous, brave and good man, who had no other crime to reproach himself with, than poverty and obscurity of his name.\u2014 Nevertheless, had he lived, if his family had known him as I knew him, I, his old friend, Anne would be at this time happy and respected.\u2019 \u2018But why is this woman here \u2018Because it is her place to be here, said the notary gravely; \u2018I myself requested her to attend here.\u2019 M.Dubois then proceeded to open the will.\u2018I, being sound in mind and heart, Egrie de Damfredg, retired as a boarder in the convent of the Sisters of the Sucred Heart of Jesus, dictate the following wishes as the expression of my formal desire and principal clavse of my testament : \u2018After my decease, there will Le found two hundred thousand francs in moncy at my notary's, beside jewelry, clothes and furniture, as also a chateau worth two hundred thousand francs.\u2018In the convent where I have been residiag, will be found my books, *Hie- ures de Ja Vierge,\u2019 holy volume, which remains as it was, when I took it with me at the time of emigration.I desire that these three objects be divided into three lots.\u2018The first lot, the two thousand franes in money.\u2018The second lot, the chateau, furniture and jewels.\u201cThe third lot, my book, Hieures de la Vierge, \u2018I have pardoned my sister Anne the grief she has caused wus, and I would have comforted her sorrows, if 1 had known sooner of her return to France.I comprise her in my will, \u2018Madame de Ville eboys, my much beloved cousin, shall have the first choice, *M.Vatry, brother-in-law shall have the second choice.\u2018Anne will take the remaining lot.\u2019 \u2018Ah! ah!\u2019 eaid Vatry, \u2018sister Egrie hundred was a good one; that is rather clever on her part.\u2019 \u2018Anne will only have the prayer- book,\u2019 exclaimed Madame de Villeboys langhing aloud.The notary interrupted her jocularity.\u2018Madame,\u2019 said he, \u2018which lot do you choose ?\u2019 \u2018The two hundred thousand francs in money.\u2019 \u2018Have you quite made up your mind \u2018Perfectly so.\u2019 The mau of law, addressing himself then to the good feelings of the lady, said : \u2018Madame, you are rich, and Anne has nothing.Could you not leave this lot, and take the book of prayers, which the eccentricity of the deceased has placed on a par with the other lots \u2018You must be joking, M.Dubois,\u2019 exclaimed Madame de Villeboys, \u2018you must really be dull not to see the intention of sister Egrie in all this.\u2014 Our hunored cousin saw full well that her book of prayers would fall to the lot of Anne, who had the lust choice.\u2019 \u2018And what do you conclude from that ?' inquired the notary.\u2018I conclude that she intended to intimate to her sister, thut repentance and prayer were the only help that she had to expect in this world.\u2019 As she finished these words, Madame de Villeboys made a definite selection of the ready money for her share.M.Vatry, as may be easily imagined, selected the chateau, furniture and jewels as his lot.\u2018Monsieur Vatry,\u2019 said M.Dubois to that gentleman, \u2018even suppose it had been the intention of the deceased to punish her sister, it would be noble on your part, millionare as you are, to give at least a portion of your share to Anne, who is in want of it.\u2018Thanks for your kind advice, dear sir,\u2019 replied Vatry; \u2018the mansion situated on the very confines of my woods, and suits me admirably, all the more so that it is ready furnished.As to the jewels of sister Egrie, they are reminiscences which one ought never to part with.\u2019 \u2018Since it is so,\u2019 said the notary, \u2018my poor Madame Anne, here is the prayer- book which remains to you.Anne, attended by her son, a handsome boy with blue eyes, took her sister's old prayer-book, and making her son kiss it after, she said : \u2018Hector, kiss this book, which belonged to your poor aunt, who dead, but who would have loved you well, had she known you.When you is is have learned to read, you will pray to heaven, to make you wise and good as your father was, and happier than your unfortunate mother.\u2019 The eyes of -those who were present, were filled with tears, notwithstanding their efforts to preserve an appearance of indifference.The child embraced the old book with boyish fervor, and opening it afterwards .*0, mamma,\u2019 he said, pictures I\" - \u2018Indeed !' saia the mother, happy in the gladness of her boy.\u201cYes.The good Virgin, in a red dress, holding the infant Jesus in her arms.But.why, mamma, has silk paper been put upon the pictures ?' \u2018So that they might not be injured, my dear.\u2019 \u2018But mamma, why are there ten silk papers to each engraving The mother looked, and uttering a sudden shriek, she fell into the arms of M.Dubois, the notary, who addressing those present, said : \u2018Leave her alone, it won't be much; people don\u2019t die of these shocks.As for you, little one,\u2019 addressing Hector, \u2018give me that prayer-book; you will tear the engravings.\u2019 The inheritors withdrew, making various conjectures as to the cause of Aune's sudden illness, und the inter- cct the notary took in her.A month afterwards, they met Anne and her son exceedingly well, yet not extravagantly dressed, taking an airing in a barouche.This led them to make inquiries, and they ascertained that Madame Anne had recently purchased a hotel for one hundred and eighty thousand francs, and that she was giving a first-rate education to her son.\u2014 The news come like a thunderbolt upon them.Madame de Villeboys and M.Vatry hastened to call upon the notary for explanations.The good Du- bois was working at his desk.\u2018what pretty ansiea STANSTEAD, L.C., SEPTEMBER 13, 1860.\u2018Perhaps we are disturbing said the arrogant old lady.\u2018No matter; I was in the act of settling a purchase in the State funds for Madame Anne.\u201cWhat?exclaimed Vatry, \u2018alter purchasing house and equippages, she hus still money to invest ?\u2018Undoubtedly so.\u2019 \u2018But where did the from ?\u2018Where ! \u201cWhen *When she shricked at seeing what the prayer-book contained, which she inherited.\u2019 : *We observed nothing.\u201cO! 1 thought you saw it,\u2019 said the sarcastic notary.\u2018That prayer-book contained sixty engravings, and cach engraving was covered by ten notes of a thousand francs each.\u2019 \u2018Good heavens! exclaimed Vatry, thunderstruck.\u2018lf 1 had only known it, Madame de Villeboys.*You had the choice,\u2019 added the notary, \u2018and I myself arged vou to take the prayer-book, but you refused.\u201d \u2018But who could bave oxpected to find a fortune in a broviary ?\u2019 The two baffled egotists withdrew, their hearts swollen with passionate envy.Madame Anne is still in Paris.If you pass by the Ruc Lafitte, on a summer evening, you will sec a charming picture on the first floor, illuminated by the pale reflection of wax lights.A lady who has joined the two fair hands of her son, and a fair child of six years of age, in prayer before an old book of \u2018Hieures de la Vierge,\u2019 and for which a case in gold has been made.\u2018Pray for me, child,\u2019 said the mother.\u2018And for who else?inguired the child.\u2018For your father, your dear futher, who perished without knowing you, without being able to love you!\u2019 *Must | pray to the saint, my pats ron ?\" *Yes, my little friend ; but do not forget a saint who watches us from heaven, and who smiles upon us from above the clouds.\u2019 \u2018What is the name of that saint, mama dear The mother then, watering the fuir child's head with her wears, answered : \u2018Her name is\u2014sister Bgrie.' you money did you not see?\u2019 shouted BACHELOR LOY E-MAHING.You would have known it for a bach- clor\u2019s den, the minute you put your head in the door! Blue, spicy wreaths of cigar smoke, circling up to the ccil- ing\u2014newspapers under the table, Castile soap in a tiny bronze cavd-re- ceiver, slippers on the mantle-piece, and confusion everywhere.And yet Mr.Thornebroke\u2014poor, deluded mor- tal-\u2014solemnly believed that his room was in the most perfect order! For hadn\u2019t he poked his empty champague bottle under the bed, and scat the wood-box to bear them company, and and hung his morning gown over the damp towels, and dusted the ash- sprinkled hearth with his best silk handkerchief?He'd like to see a room in Letter trim than thal\u2014guess he would! And now he mending himself up, preparatory to going calling on the very prettiest girl in New York.Not that he was particularly fond of the needle, but when a fellow's whole foot goes through a hole in the northeast toe of his stocking, and there isn't a button on his shirt, it's time to repair damages.Now, as Mr.Thornebroke's whole stock of industrial implements consisted of a lump of wax, an cnormous pair of scissors and one needle, the mending didn\u2019t progress rapidly.His way of managing the button question, too, necessurily involved some delay ; he bad to cut all these useful little appendages from another shirt, and sew them on, and next when the shirt was wanted, why, it was casy enough to make a transfer again! Sec what it is to be a bachelor genius ! 1t never occurred to him to buy a few buttons extra! \u2018Buttons are not much trouble, said Mr.T.to himself, as he wiped the perspiration from his brow, \u2018but when it comes to coat sleeves, what the deuce is a fellow to do?1 haven't any Llack thread, either,\u2019 and he looked dulorously at a small teur just in his elbow, where sume vicious nail had cought in the broadcloth.\u2018A black pin may do for to-night, and to-mor- was come: row I'll send it to the tailor.The fact ie, I ought to be married ; and so 1 would, if I only dared to ask Lillian, O, dear! I know she wouldn't have me ; and yet I'm not certain, either\u2014if I could only muster courage boldly to put the question! But just as sure as 1 approach the dangerous ground, my heart fails me! And then that puppy, Jones, with his curled moustache, and hair parted in the middle, always hanging round Lillian, and quoting poetry to her\u2014if I could have the privilege of kicking him across the street, l'A die happy! He isn't bashful, not he! If somebody would invent some new way of popping the question\u2014something that wasn't quite so embarrassing !' Our hero gave his black, glossy curls an extra brush, surveyed himself critically in the glass, and then, with a deep sigh, set forth to call on the identical Lillian Raymond, revolving, as he had a thousand times before, that if\u2014perhaps\u2014may be\u2014 O ! the bashfulness of bachelors.When Mr.Thornebroke arrived within the charmed precinets of Mr.Raymond's handsome parlors, velvet carpeted, chandeliered with gold and ormolu, crowded to the very doors with those charming knick-knacks that only a woman's taste provides, Miss Lily was \u2018at home\u2019 in a bewildering pink merino dress, edged with white luce around the pearly shoulders and a crimson moss twisted in among the rippling wares of her soft brown hair.She never looked half so pretty ; and thank Providence, Jones wasn\u2019t on hand, for once in his life.\u2014 But, what was almost as bad, Lily's cousin was there\u2014a tall, slender, black-eyed girl, with arch lips, and cheeks as red as a Spitzenburg apple.O, how Thornebroke wished that Miss Iisther Allen was at the bottom of the led Sea, or anywhere except in that particular parlor.And then her eyes were so sharp\u2014he hadn't been doing the \u2018agrecable\u2019 more than four minutes and a half, before she exclaimed : \u2018Dear me, Mr.Thornebroke\u2014pray excuse me\u2014but what on earth is the \u2018matter with your elbow ¥' Mark turned scarlet\u2014the traitorous black pin had deserted its post.\u2018Only a compound fracture of my coat, Miss Allen,\u2019 said he, feeling as though his face might do the duty of Raymond's chandeliers both put together ; \u2018you know we bachelors are not exempt from such things.\u2019 \u2018Hold your arm, sir, and I'll make it right in one moment,\u201d said Iisther, instantly producing from seme secret recess in the folds of her dress a thimble and needle, threaded with black silk, and setting expertly to work.\u2019 \u201cThere, now, consider yourself whole.\u2019 \u2018How skillful you are,\u201d said Mark, admiringly, after he had thanked her most sincerely.\u2018But then you have so many nice little concerns to work with.1 have only a needle and some wax, besides my scissors I\u2019 - \u2018You ought to have a housewife, Mr.Thornebroke,\u2019 said Miss Lily, timidly lifting up her long lashes in his direction.Lily never could look at Thorne- broke without a soft little rosy shadow on her check.\u2018A what very red.\u2018A housewife.\u2019 \u2018Yes,\u2019 said Mark, after a moment's awkward hesitation, \u2018my-\u2014my\u2014my friends have told me so very often\u2014 and I really think so myself, you know.But what sort of a one would you recommend, Miss Raymond ?*O, any pretty little concern, Ill send you one in the morning, if\u2019 you'll accept of it,\u2019 she added, with a rosy light upon her cheeks again.*1f£\u2014l'il\u2014accopt ?said Mark, feeling as if he were in an atmosphere of gold and pearl, with two wings sprouting out of his broadcloth, on either side.And just as he was opening his lips to assure Miss Lilly that he was ready to tuke the precious gift in his arms then and there, without any unnecessary delay, the door opened, aud in walked Jones.Mark was not at all cannibalistic in his propensities, but just then he could have caten Jones up with uncommon pleasure.And there the fellow sat, pulling his long moustache, und talking the most insipid twaddle\u2014 sut and sat until Mark rose in despair to go.Even then he had no opportunity to exchango a privato word with Lily.demanded Mark, turning \u201cYou\u2014you'll not forget\u2014\"' \u20180, I'll be sure to remember,\u201d said she, smilingly, and half-wondering at that unusual pressure he gave her hand.\u2018Ladies often do provide their bachelor friends so ° Mark went home the happiest individual that ever trod a New York pavement.Indeed, so great was his felicity that he indulged in various gymnastic capers indicative of bliss, and only paused in them at the gruff caution of a policeman, who probably had forgotten his own courting days\u2014*Come, young man, what are you doing ?\u2018Was there ever a more delicate way of assuring me of her favorable consideration ?Was there ever a more feminine admiration of her sentiments?Of course, she will come herself, an angel, breathing airs from Paradise, and I shall tell her of my love.A housewife, O ! the delicious words !\u2014 Wonder in what neighborhood sbe would like me tu engage à residence\u2014, how soon would it be Lest to name the day! O!if I should awake, and find it all a blissful dream Early the next morning, Mr.Thorne- broke set briskly to work, \u2018righting up things.\u201d How he swept and dusted and scoured ; the room was aired, to get rid of the tobacco smoke, and sprinkled with cologne, and beautified gen- crally, and at length, when the dust wus all swept into one corner, and covered by a carelessly disposed newspaper, he found the window glass murky, and polished it with such a vengeance that his fist, handkerchief and all, went through, sorely damaging his hand, and necessitating the ungraceful accessory of an old hat to keep out the wintry blast for the time being.Lily coming?Long and wearily he waited, yet no tinkle at the bell gave warning of her approach.\u2018It's her modesty,\u201d thought he, and was content.At length there was an appeal below, and his heart jumped up into his mouth, beating like a reveille drum.\u2014 He rughed to the door, but there was no one but a grinning little black boy, with a box.\u2018Miss Raymond's compliments, and here's de housewife, sir.\u2019 \u2019 sweet feminine \u2018The housewife, you little imp of Erebus?\u2018Yes, sir, in de box, all right.\u2019 Mark slunk back into bis room, and opened the box, half expecting to sce a full dressed young lady issuc from it, a la Avabian Nights ; bat no, it was only a little blue velvet book, and full of odd compartments in azure silk, containing tape, needles, scissors, silk, a thimble, and all the nice little worktable accessories.\u2018And she calls this a housewife ! groaned Mark, in the ineffable bitterness of spirit at the downfall of his his bright visions.\u2018But I won't be put off so.\u2019 Desperation gave him courage, and off he hied to the Raymond mansion, determined to settle the matter, even thouglr there were forty Jonses and Esthers there.But Lillian was alone, singing at her embroidery in the sunshiny window casement.\u2018Dear me, Mr.Thurnebroke, is anything the matter ?\u2019 Perhaps it was the shadow from the splendid crimson cactus plumes in the window, that gave her check such a delicate glow ; perhaps\u2014but we have no right to speculate.*Yes.! And Mark sat down by her side and took the trembling, fluttering hand.*You,sent me a housewife this morning \u201cWasn't it right ?* faltered Lillian.-It wasn't the kind 1 wanted at all 1 \u2018Not the kind you wanted » \u2018No; I prefer a living one, and I came to sec if 1 could change it.1 want one with brown hair and eyes\u2014 something, in short, Miss Lillian, just your pattern.Can't I have it\u2019 Lily tuined white, then red, smiled, then burst into tears, and tried to draw away her hand, but Mark held it fast, \u201cNo no, dear Lily; first tell me 1 can have the treasure 1 ask for.\u2018Yes\u2019 she said, with the prettiest confusion in the world; and then, instead of releasing the captive hand, the unreasonable fellow took possesion of the other, too.But us Lily did not object, we suppose it was all right.And that was the odd path by which Mark Thorncbroke diverged from the However, even this mishap did | | did.not long daunt his spirits, for was not | | LL path of old bachelorhood, and stepped into the respectable ranks of matrimony.À DIFFICULT QUESTION ANSWERED.\u2014Can any one tell why, when Eve was manufactured from one of Adam\u2019s ribs, a hired girl was not made at the same time to wait on her?We can eu- sy ! Because Adam never came whining to Eve with a ragged stocking to be darned, a collar string to be sewed on, or a glove to mend, \u2018right away, quick now!\" Because he never read the newspaper until the sun got down behind the palm trees, and then stretching himself, yawned out, \u201cAin't supper most ready, my dear?Not he! he made the fire, and hung the tea kettle over it himself, we'll venture, and pulled the radishes, peeled the bananas, and did everything else he ought He milked the cows, fed the chickens, and looked after the pigs himself.He never brought half a dozen friends to dinner, when Eve hadn't any fresh pomgranates, and the mango season was over! He never stayed out till eleven o'clock to a \u2018ward meeting,\u2019 hurrahing for an out-and-out candidate, and then scolded because poor Eve was sitting up and crying inside the gates.He never played billiards, and drove fast horses, nor choke! Eve with cigar smoke.He never loafed around corner groceries, while solitary Eve was rocking little Cain's cradle at home.\u2014 In short, he didn\u2019t think she was especially created for the purpose of waiting on bim and wasn't under the impression that it disgraced a man to lighten his wife's cares a little.That is the reason that Eve didn\u2019t need a hired girl, and we wish it was the reason that none of her fuir descendants to.AN ArremPr ro MAKEIT RArn.\u2014 A letter from Lynchburg in the Richmond Dispatch says: \u201cA gentleman who resides near Boydton, Mechlen- ber g county, Va., bas aspired to a new science\u2014-that of controging the clouds in order to cause it to rain at will, \u2014 With the view of attaining This end, he has built a \u2018rain tower,\u201d which novel structure is said to be thirty-feet di- ameter at the base, which size it retains to the hight of forty feet.Tu this hight it contains four flues, euch seven feet in diameter.The number of flues is then reduced to two, which ruu up twenty feet higher, the top of the structure reaching an altitude ol sixty feet.The whole concern was erected at a cost of about $1000.The modus operandi of causing the rain to fall is as follows: the flues are filled with dry pine wood, which is set on fire, and which is kept up until the desired effect is produced on the elements.His theory is that the great heat produced in the air above the \u2018tower\u2019 will cause the clouds to concentrate over it, when plenty of rain will fall in that vicinity.The originator of this novel idea is said to Le à firm believer in the practicability and utility of his invention, notwithstanding the fact that after repeated trials, during which he consumed hundreds of cords of wood, his tower failed to produce the desired effect on the unpropitious neavens, he aaving been great sufferer from drouth during the entire spring and summer.\u201d A Girsey Trick.\u2014A party strolling Gipsies, who visited Belcher- town a few weeks ago, played an expensive and wicked joke upon Elisha Clark, an honest and unsuspecting farmer of the town.One of the women informed him that there was mo- vey buried on his farm, and if he ad $1000 at his command she coud discover it for him.Mr.Clark couldn't raise but 8500, which the priestess finally concluded would be sufficient.\u2014 After the money was obtained the Gip- sey took the package in her hand and after going through a peculiar ceremony, handed it back for safe keeping, ordering it to be locked up and not disturbed for two weeks, or the \u2018spell\u2019 would be broken.At the expiration of two weeks, the trunk was opened, and ar imitation of the original package found, which, however, was 8500 short.She had substituted a neat counterfeit for the original, while por- forming the grand incantation, and then left for parts unknown.\u2014 Spring- ficld Republican.TZ Among the lust arts is the art of making large loaves, which was for merly well understood by bakers, of N fee, Molassez hand.ters, highfalatin jawed Lobsters,: a with Pickles; Peaches; Rais Epsom Salts.Bear Oil, Tanners!\u2019 or Gladness.; Plows!

work, and having labels of the names of the squaws who had made them, were given to the Prince, and in the midst of a parting volley the royal party moved away.The reception at Peterboro was a very fine one in almost every way.\u2014\u2014 Train drew up so that from tho Prince's car there was a fine view of street along which the procession was arranged and up whizh party passed as soon as they hud taken their seats in carriages set apart for that purpase.\u2014 They went through the principal streets of the town {every one of which was handsomely decorated with arches, flags und evergreens) to a platform below the Court House.There the City and County Councils, presented their addresses, to which gracious replies were given, The place was so well chosen that the 7008 people assembled had fine view ul the Prince.Leaving this the party went to the Port Hope station, passing under the Lumberar\u2019s arch, made ol rough boards only, in the crest of wnich a hundred uf red-shirted stalwart Lumbermen were standing and shouting welcome to the Prince.Some of the carriage horses took fright at this unusual display, and some confusion and \"a little injury to a few of the carriages result ed, A curious incident occurred tou où pAs they went out under a magnificent arch, The Qrangemen have been parading through the town all day with banners, bands und robes, but just before the arrival of the Prince they took off their gowns ag pre-arranged, as they passed under the arch und emerged on the other side of it gs a body of private citizens, The ouly mark on their arch which could be taken as à party emblem was n likeness of the Prince over Îts centre in the traditional posture of King William at the crossing of the Boyne.\u2018The landing of the Prince hore occurred half an hour before dark.It was a spectacle which for magnificenbe has probably nev- cr been surpussed in the modern world, just as the Montreal ball was the finest thing ever seen under a roof, so the display here was by far the finest thing ever scen out of doors.A semi-circular platform whose radius was at least 200 feet, hud been erected, and tier upon tier of seats were arranged around, each behind the other.This was ornamented with shields, banners, &c., and wore than 10,000 people were in position upon it.In the open space was a troop of cavalry, and in the centre was a great! level platform with a dais and throne under | u gorgeous canopy, where the Prince and : suite, members of the corporation, judges, and many members of parliament und of the press, and a brilliant array of oflicers\u2014 militia and regulars\u2014stood when the Prince landed, He stood for several moments silently contemplating the scene.The no- Llemen in his train were al:o ardently impressed with a sense of absolute sublimity of the scene.After a brief pause, during which a thousand children sung the nation- | al anthem, the people following it up with deafening cheers, the Corporation presented addresses, and then the procession, the equal of which the writer has never seen, began to pour in on each side at a great rate, which had been made for the purpose, six | abreast.The Militia, Fre Companies, National Societies, &e., marched past in endless succession, drooping their banners and cheering as they passed the delighted Prince, who had advanced in front of the platform.immediately in front, their bands began to play.Unfortunately it was dark before the whofe body of men and youths had passed, and some of the grandeur of the effect was completely lost.When all had defiled, the ; Prince and suite took carriages and followed the procession through the city, up one street and down another for miles.The illuminations .werc very fine; light not lacking.Every man, in long file cheered the whole way along.Every window was Ülumianted, or were filled by ladies waving handkerchiefs, &c., and strewing flowers before the Prince.It was a universal jubilee, a complete carnival, and as to enter into details would be impossible when writing by | telegraph, This account stops here.The Prince finally proceeded to the Government House where his quarters were prepared, reaching it about half-past 8 o\u2019- clock for dinner.| 1 HORRIBLE GCENES AT TIE CAPIURE OF HANG-CHAN, The Shanghae correspondent of the New York Times gives the following account vf tie capture of the Chinese city of

formal reply returned list evening, and through the Duke of Newcastle replaced it with the following, the Duke stating that the short reply was insufficient to express His Royal Ii3h- ness's satisfaction at the reception ne- corded him by the people of Frock- ville: \u201cGentlemen\u2014I am deeply touched : by the cordiality and warmth of feeling with which 1 have been welcomed to this

uncalled for.\u2018I.never doubted that the well Known loyaity of the people would ensure to me a kind reception amongst you, out day after day convinces me that I had not fully estimated that strength and urdour of Canadian patriotism.\u2018Be assured that 1 shall not forget the scene of this evening.\u201d scon Which there were at least 300.The! jjis Royal Highness, which the Prince, merchants lit up their windows, and {in the fullness uf bis gooduature, took was almost converted into without reflect®u and shook heartily, \u2014 The man clated told his companions who all rushed forward and for several minutes the Prince was busily engaged shaking hands with all that came.\u2014\u2014 Soon, however, whether Court Doctor told him bis shoulder was in danger of dislocation or not, he turned towards the other side, and this demonstration closed.Not so, however with the cheers by the crowd\u2014the throng of ladies at the windows throwing bougets and other loyal and enthusiastic displays.The whole party was much pleased with l'eterboro.The Frain in which the Prince was carried to Port Hope consisted of three cars, the first of which was ventilated on Ruttan's system who had accompanied the party from Cobourg.Shortly after starting, Lond Lyons came into the ear, and, finding it pleasant, re- guested Mr.Ruttan to explain the modus operandi.This done, he con- stiuted himself Ambassador Extraordinary to the Prince, and examined the system with great attention, Tort lope, 7th Sept.The display at Port Hope was like that at Cobourg and Peterboro, and exceedingly ! gratifving te all concerned, The visit of His Royal Highness was necessaritr Lrief, bat a vam! er of pleasing incidents were connected with it, A very fine procession was formed in the prineipai streets which is a handsome our, and through it, under several flue arches, the Prince and suite passed towards the town Hall, in front of this was a spacious i platforna where the Mayor presented the address of the Corporation in full view of upwards of 6600 people.Alter replying to the address, Tis Royal Highness entered pte Town Hall where à Lunch was prepared L for him in thé most

TORONTO.| GREAT ENTHUSIASM\u2014THE PROCESSION, ETC.Toronto, Sept.7, 10 P.M.50,000 lives :\u2014 \u201cIhe story of the capture of Hang- chan is a sad one, for it has been attended with a terrible destruction of human life\u2014greater by far than that which attended the great battle of Sol- ferino ; and this destruction of life was accompanied with horrors and atrocities of the most fearful character.On the 19th of March the insurgents succeeded in springing a mine under the city wall, where it crosses a high hill laying partly within the city.A breach being thus effected the rebels rushed to the attack drove back the ; Imperialists, and sucured a lodgment within the walls.At Mang-chan there isa large Tarter garrison, and these soldiers, with their families, occupy a portion of the! city which is separated from the part: occupied by the Chinese, by a high and | substantial wail, They well knew that to them, if the revels should succeed, no quarter would be shown, Every Tartar without distinction of age : or sex, is doomed to death by the nascent *Celestial Peaceful Dynasty.\u201d \u2018The Tartar troops, therefore, had no choice but to tight or die, and made such of- forts us their desperate condition demanded.We have no means of ascertaining their number, but it proba: bly amounts in all.women and chil dren included, to 20.000 souls at least.| It was not only the Tartars that fought the people, too, seem to have stoud, in some instances, in their own defence.\u2014 The brawny arms of some fifteen or twenty thousand men, employed in the manufacture of tin-fuil, were engaged for the defence of the city ; and they: appeared armed with the heavy hammer | used in their trade.| The rebels ave, of course, responsible for the horrors enacted during the; six days in which this desperate con- ! flict was kept up.No pen will ever tell us what those horrors really were : : but we may be well assured that if | they had occurred in a Christian cîty, | and the half were told us, they would make our cars to tingle, and our hearts | to bleed.How could it bo otherwise : Here was an immense population of a! million souls, shut up within the walls, inclosing a space not more than three | miles in diameter.The gates were all closed and guarded, so that there was na escape.Forty or fifty thousand | men were engaged in a constant irregular warfare in their narrow streets.\u2014 Thousands of thieves and robbers, always abundant in a large city, started | up, to make the most of the state of| terror and anarchy which prevailed.\u2014 | The will of the strongest was law, and \u2018 woe to the man who had not the means lof defending his property, his wife, his \u201cdaughter, his life, from the lawless ! murderers, who prowled about in In any other than | in Chinese city mutual friends and | neighbors would have banded together | for the defence of their lives, if not of | | their property.i But here nothing of the kind could | be done.There was no time for con- : sultation, and there is too little mutuAl : confidence among the Chinese to admit | of such combinations in times of great! danger.Every man wns intent on | saving his own life, and had no time! { desperation by their | grandehildren | ago, all wus life and activity.to think of others, Crowds were seen flying hither und thither, trying to escape from some scene of slaughter, or some burning conflagration.Women and children were trampled to death,\u2014 Parents forsouk their little ones, or lost them in the crowd.Cunnou balls and bullets were flying in all directions, swords and spears were flushing in the flames of burning houses, and demoniac yells of brutal violence, or shricks of terror, were heard in all directions.Such scenes must have been of constant occurrence during that fearful week, us was testified by the smouldering ruins and Ulackened corpses found lying in all directions when order, had Leen in some meuusure restored.Besides this, multitudes committed suicide rather than meet the sickening horrors of that scene ; or driven to terrors, whole families plunged together into ponds, | or wells, rather than fall into the hands of the ferocivus savages who were murdering their neighbors.One instance especiutly has been mentioned to me, of a wealthy family who knew that their reputed wealth would draw the banditti to them, and who therefore deliberately resolved to escape or cie together.There were twenty- seven persons in all\u2014parents.children, and duughters-in-law.When it was found that the slaughter had begun, und that there was no hope of escape, they all leaped into a deep well and died together.At length, however, these scenes of blood were brought to an end.The rebels found it impossible to storm the Tartar quarters of the city, and hearing of the advanee of a large Imperialist force sent to the relief of the city, they abandoned the place and made good their retreat.The loss of life at first reported at Shanghai was 20,000.This, however, proves to have been far below the mark.Missionaries who have visited the city since, say that the conunon estimate on the spot was from 50,000 to 80,000, and as the dead had to be Luried, this number is probably not much exaggmatcd.From what.these gentlemen themselves witnessed of the eifeets of this terrible tempest, more than a month after the retreat of the insurgents, they were prepared to accept ho largest number mentioned as not much above the truth.Whole sticets were lying in ruins, and desolation und silence reigned in quarters wi ere, a few months The city scemed half deserted by its inhabitants, and the deep gioom which rested upon the countenance of those who remained, told of the scenes of terror through which they had passed.The rebel army which captured the city was composed chiefly of local bandits, led on and aided by a few thousands of the genuine Nankin rebels.ee .Quant Stanstead Journal.0e \u2014\u2014 SEPT.153, 1860.Grangement.We have to record with regret the fact that the visit of the Prince of Wales to Upper Canada has been attended with very unpleasant circumstances.The Duke of Nuweastle, in accordance with the general policy of the Home Government, refuses on the part of His Royal Highness, to take part in any procession, or reception where party colors, or badges are worn, or even to participate with less oljectionable societies, like the Freemasons, in ceremonies where they appear as members of secret societies.It appears that the Orange Lodges of Kingston, Belleville, Toronto, &e., had made arrangements to turn out as a society, with banners, party music, &e., thus en- : gendering à bad state of feeling on the part of the Catholie population.When it is remembered that the Orangemen belong to a politico-religious organization, originating in Ircland during a period of great political and religious excitement, and that the cau- es which led to that organization have long since died out, and the institution has been transplanted to this country where itis to say the least, an unnecessary institution, it can scarcely cause surprise that the advisers of the Prince have tuken the course they have 7 The Aings/on, with the Royel party arrived at Kingston on the Ath inst, having previously announced to the Mayor of Kingston through the Governor General, that the Prince would not land at any place where there were party demonstrations.\u2014 The Mayor waited upon the Royal party, and ascertaining that the Prince would leave the next morning at 9 A M, unless the partisan display contemplated was dispersed with, laid the matter before the city council.A warm debate at once arose, and continued until a late hour, when they adjourned until the nest morning.At half-past ! ._ nine the nest morning the couneil resolved not to present any address except at the place they had before fixed vpon.The Prince refused to land, Meauwhile the Or- angemen formed in procession and marched back and forth in view of the Kingston.\u2014 Much indignation was expressed towauds the Mayor for his vaseilating course, as weli \u201cas towards the Duke of Neweastle and Sir Edmund Head.\u2018The Orangemen chartered a Steamer and expressed a determination to follow the Prince.The Kingston lefi for Belleville at 5 P.M.the Prince not naving landed.At Belleviile the Orangemen were in session, and had decided on conceding to the terms of the Duke of Newcastle, when the party of Orangemen from Kingston arrived and influenced them to persevere in their demonstrations.This result was communicated to the Prince, whose steamer immediately got under way for Cobourg, leaving Belleville without landing.The people of Belleville were very much disappointed, a they bad taken great pains to decorate their town, nud were gently displeased that the obstinacy of the Orangemen should have disappointed them of the Prince's visit, \u2018The Prince landed at Cobourg at 10 o'- clock P, M, on the evening of the 6th, and met with a most enthusiastic welcome.The Orangemen of \u2018Toronto at first took the same position us their brethren in Kingston, but after many warm debates among themselves, and much running to and fro from the reception commmitiee, they at lust resolved to have a procession, but totally independent of and separate from the reeeption procession.The people were beginning to get disgusted at the course pursued by the Orunge- men in following up the Prince to make of fensive demonstrations, and feared that efforts would be made by Kingston men to destroy the work of reconciliation which was taking place at Toronto.J.H.Came- von the grand master, is blamed for taking no active steps to check the spirit of the Orange body.Much blame is also attached to the Governor General, with how much reason remains to bc seen.Orangeism has never flourished except in Ireland where it originated, and in Canada West, where it was transplanted from Ireland.The suppression of the society has been frequently attempted, and there isa measure now before Parliament having for its object the prevention of party processions, &e.Under these circumstances it would appear that the Duke of Newcastle had no other course to pursue here than to carry out the views of the Administration of which he is a member.The following correspondence explains itself: 6 My DEAR Sin EpuUsD\u2014I am informed that it is the intention of the Orangemen of Toronto, to erect an arch on the line of route which it is desired by the citizens that the Prince of Wales shall take on Friday next, and to decorate it with the insignia of their Association.Tam also told that they mean to appear in the Procession similarly decorated with party badges.\u201cIt is obvious that a display of this nature on such an occasion is likely to lcad to religious Feud and Breach of the Peace, and it is my duty to prevent, as far as Tam able, the Exposure of the Prince to supposed participation, in a scene so much to be deprecated and so alien to the spirit in which he visits Canada.* { trust you may Le able to persuade those who are concerned in these preparations to abandon their intentions, but that there be no mistake, T hope you will inform them, that in the event of any such arch being erected, I shall advise the Prince to refuse to pass under it, and enter the town by another street ; and further, if any Orange demonstration, or any other demonstration of a party character is persisted in, 1 shall advise the Prince to abandon his visit to the Town altogether.#1 have heard but with less certainty, that a similar demonstration is contemplated at Kingston.Ineed not say that my remarks apply equally to that or any other town, \u201cl am, &e., (Signed,) NEWCASTLE.\u201cfo the Right Hon.Sir

Highness the Prince of Wales, \u201cIn explanation of this letter I desir- to call your attention to the fact, that according to an advertisement which has appeared in a Toronto paper, it is the intention of the Orange body in that City, to dis- play-in the procession which is to take place on the reception of 1lis Royal Highness, and in the streets throngh which he is to \u2018pass, certain emblems and decorations belonging specially to their own Society.+} may state in the most explicit terms, that any such display, or any attempt to connect with Eis Royal Highness reception, the puldic and open recognition of the Or- angemen or any Party Association, would be viewed with extreme dissatisfaction.You will bear in mind, Sir, that His Royal Highness visits this Colony on the special invitation of the whole people, as conveyed by both branches of the Legislature, without distinetion of ereed or party, and it would Le inconsistent with the spirit and object of such an invitation, and such a visit, to thrust on him the exhibition of banners ov other badges of distinction which are known to be offensive to any portion of iler Majesty's subjects.#1 feel satisfied that Ils Graed\u2019s reasons for expressing these views will, on consideration, he deemed satisfactory ; and 1 have to request you as Chief Magistrate of the city of Toronto, will take care that no such cause of complaint may exist, either in the Procession itself, or in the decoration of the streets through which His Royal Highness will pass.\u201c+f have further to request that you will hy letter addressed to me at Kingston, inform me explicitly whether any doubt exists as to a compliance with the wishes expressed by the Duke of Newcastle in this matter, as the course likely to be pursued at Toronto may materially affect the route to be taken by His Royal Highness in his future progress through the Province, «+1 have the honor to be, sir, «(Signed) EDMUND HEAD.P.8.It will be seen by the

Pic=Nic.(Reported for the Journal.) I'he Temperance Convention and Pie-Nic at Magog brought together a very large number of people from all parts of the Townships, notwithstanding the morning portended rain, which, however, luckily for those assembled, did not come, and the weather proved sujtable for the occasion.\u2014 The grounds prepared for the meeting were about 50 rods from the village on the Bolton side of the river, in a fine grove, where a stand for the speakers, and tables for the accommodation of the multitude were prepared.> People from abroad began to come in about 10 o'clock, in long processions of carriages, accompanied hy bands of musi, flags, banners, &e., and continued to arrive until \u2018noon, including a boat load by the \u201cMountain Maid.\u201d The number present were variously estimated, but your correspondent sets it at about 2000.One of the speakers stated that no less than five Counties were represented.| The largest numbers were from Stanstead and Sheflord Counties.From the latter County there was a large representation of the \u201cSons of Temperance\u201d and other temperance organizations.\"The exercises commenced with a prayer by Rev.E.Mitchell, of Magog, J.Me- Counell, Bsq., of Hatley, in the Chair.The following gentlemen were named a committee on Resolutions: H.Tabor, East Farn- ham; G.lH.Knowlton, Brome; Rev.C.Pearl, Waterville; D.White, Stanstead; I.8.Walton, Sherbrooke; Rev.M.Ferguson, Barnston ; T.Wadleigh, Hatley; T.Ss Brown, Montreal ; II.1.Jordan, Waterloo.Rev.Mr.Adams, Georgeville was introduced by the Chairman, who announced that speeches would be limited to ten minutes each.Mr.Adams was followed by Mr.Johnson, who recited the following poem by his sister, Miss H.M.Johnson, well known to your readers before her health failed : From north and south, from east and west, They come with banners gay, Hope lights each eye, and fills each breast, Aud all are friends to-day.The fairest of the sister band, With greetings most sincere, Magog extends an eager hand, And bids you welcome here.Hail, brothers in a noble cause! \"I'is well we thus should meet, For every meeting closer draws\u2014 The bonds of union sweet.And we who battle for the right, And breathe the solemn vow: To win or perish in the fight, Should Le united now.Up brothers, up! to arms! to arms! The sword must soon be drawn; These are indeed no vain alarms, The foe is marching on, And shall he blight our happy land, With his polluting breath, And scatter woe on every hand, And infamy and death ?By yonder mountain and by lake, Bathed in the morning glow ;\u2014 For each beloved Townghip's sake, We boldly auswer,\u2014no!

Short speeches followed hy II.Wadleigh and Mr.Bacon of Hatley.Then came the Waterloo delegation accompanied by a band, who were received with cheers.After music by the bands, Rev, C.Pearl from the committee \u2018on resolutions reported the following : First of all the committee would devoutly acknowledge the beneficent Providence which has originuted the Temperance Reform, and permitted us to share largely in its benefits.As the best expression of our gratitude, we feel called upon to enlist our efforts more thoroughly and efficiently for the consummation and permanent establishment of the reform.To give defimteness and\u2019 direction to these efforts we agree in the following :\u2014 DECLARATION OF SENTIMENTS, 1.The use of intoxicating liquor, as a drink, fermented or distilled, is unnecessary for persons in health\u2014is injurious in n high degree to health, happiness, safety and prosperity, and ought to be universally abandoned.2.The sale of intoxicating liquors, for drinking purposes, with or without the sanction of law, is a fruitful cause of drunkenness, and all the misery, crime, disease and death growing out of it, and should be eve ervwhere prohibited\u2019and execrated, rr, ¢ J Thot ligense laws which authorize th sale 0 ae Aliquors to be used as n Levers age, dre; wrong in principle, mischovious in effeot,,gnd quaht to be utterly and forever abolished; 4.Ttis the right and duty of all who gy» gree in these sentiments to unite their ef.furts and use all just and honorable means to secure these results; to substitute Prohibition in the Rage.of Jicenge, to forbid the sale of guch\u2019 liquors : fog \"dyinking purposes, and punish it by adequate penalties, 5.While laboring to secure § prohibitive law, 1tis tie right and duty of all gog] eit- izens to nnite in all needful measures \u201c for witholding licenses from drinking houses, under the existing law, and in enforcing its penalties on all who sell \u2018such liquors, At the same time we adnut the propriety of licensing some suitable person in-each municipality to furnish liquors for medicnal and mechanical purposes only.- Agreeing in the above sentiments, the following measures nre recommended to ba vigoronsly employed in every township: 1.Frequent meetings in cach township, and in various parts of it, for mutual home efforts in educating the public sentiment in the aforesaid principles.; 2, The renewal of the pledge of abstinence from the traffic and use of such liquors, with an additional agreement to cooperate in efforts for a prohibitory liquor law.3.The interchange of labors in contiguous townships to secured diversity, and Jar- ger amount of home labors.4, The occasional employment of Lee- turers well quali fied to educate the people on the question at issue.Such lecturers should have the endorsement of some proper persons as a guarantee of fitness for the service, 5.County Conventions and social gatherings, where the mass of the people can ns- semble for instruction and encouragement in the work.6.The use of the Temperance Press, the circulation of temperance tracts and papers, and the use of the local papers whose conductors are willing to publish articles in favor of temperance.7.The early organization of Bands of Hope, Divisions of Sons of Temperance, or other efficient temperance Societies, in every township and village where none are now in working order.8.An efficient Committee for the Eastern Townships to co-opcrate with local organi- zatious and aid by counsel, and in all practical methods in reaching the whole territo- ry\u2014the committee to have power to call conventions at such times and places as may be deemed expedient, and to arrange tle exercises of such conventions; also to correspond with similar committees, and eo-op- crate with temperance organizations in all parts of the Provinee in efforts for Parliamentary prohibition.9.The circulation of petitions, approved by the Exceutive Committee, in every neighborhood, for the signature of the citizens, men and women, asking Parliament at its next session to prohibit the sale, for drinking purposes, of intoxicating liquors; and that until such prohibition can be obtained, efforts should he made to obtain local prohibition from County Councils.10.That, in the future as in the past, our hopes of success are greatly encouraged hy the zealous co-operation of the ludies.\u2014 Their presence cheers us in these gatherings, and we rely upon their efforts in the family circle.in rearing up à generation free from the contamination of the intoxicating bowl.Messrs, Tabor, Hunt, and Sutherland spoke briefly to the resolutions, filling up the time until the hour of refreshment, when the members of the various delegations, the bands, and others, repaired to the tables.\u2014 It is appropriate to observe that the ladies of Magog had prepared an entertainment abundant and elevant, there being four tables about 100 feet in length, bountifully supplied with the substantials and et cete- ras so grateful to a hungry soul.At the central table was planted the banner of the Magog Temperance Society, with \u201cExcel sior\u201d for a motto, and on a gigantic cake, the following poetic welcome : \u201cOld and young are welcome here To the banquet we have spread, It will cause no bitter tear, When the festal hour has fled ; It will break no mother*s heart, For the deadly bowl we shun; Welcotne then, and when we part, Blessings go with every one.\u201d After dinner speaking was resumed, and addresses were made by Rev.Mr, Cole, of Coaticook ;

Rev.Mr.Ferguson, Barnston ; Rev.C.Pearl, Waterville; Dr.Cowles, Stanstead.On motion the resolutions reported above were adopted, and in accordance with them the following gentlemen named an Lxecutive Committee : J.McConnell and E.H.Le- Baron, Hatley ; H.Shorey, Barnston ; Rev.C.Pearl and G.E.Brown, Waterville; Dr Cowles and I.White, Stanstead; J.G.Robertson and J.8.Walton, Sherbrooke; H.Tubor, East Farnam; 11.D.Jordan, Waterloo ; S.A.Hurd, Eaton; S.Hoyt, jr, Magog.The speaking was carnest and pointed, and mainly directed towards prohibition as the means of nccomplishing the purposes of Temperance reformers.There cannot bea great deal said of n new or striking charae- ter in favor of the temperance reform.l'he ground has been repeutedly explored and the topics incident to it exhausted.If yonr correspondent may be allowed to express an opinion, he would say that there is a little too much latitude given to denuncio- tion at these meetings.He is not yet fully satisfied that the law of Christian kindness, uxpostulation and charity is entirely cx- hausted.Many a sober, industrious man owes his present position to the fact that Re se lis fir er 1 A mn! lo ha m st a ol M he hi some \u201cgood Samaritan\u2019 bound up his wounds and odministered the law of kindness, while the \u201cpriest and Lovite\u201d passed him by on the other side, Upon the whale, however, the Magog demonstration was well conducted, nnd reflected credit upon The enterprising inhabitants of that flourishing village.Votes of thanks were tendered to the Chairman, the bands of music, and to the people of Mogog for their hospitality.\u2014 Three cheers were given for the Queen, three for the Prince of Wales, and three for the Ladies of Magog, and then the numerous audience dispersed their several ways, apparently well pleased with the manner in which they had spent the day.Hoping that when next the people of Magog entertain their friends your correspondent may he there to sce, he subscribes himself, \u2019 OBSERVER.Sept.6, 1860.Terrible Disaster on Lake Michigan.Loss of Steamer Lady Elgin.Upwards of 300 Lives Supposed to *be Lost.Cinvaço, Sept.8\u2014Steamer Lady Elgin was run into by a schooner off Wankegan at 2:30 this morning, and sunk in twenty minutes in three hundred feet of water.There were from 330 to 400 passengers on board, including several military and fire companies, and Col, Lumsden of the New Orleans Licayune, and family, who are supposed to be lost.Only seventeen are known to have been saved.The schooner was going at the rate of eleven miles an hour.A steam tug has gone to the scene of the disaster.THIRD DISPATCH.The Clerk makes the following statement: The Lady Ligin left Chicago at 11.- 30 P.M.for Like Superior.Among her passengers were the Union Guards of Mil- waukiv, composing a part of 350 excursionists from that city, At about half-past two this morning, schooner Augusta, of Oswego, came in col- 3 A lision with Lady Elgin when about ten miles i from shore.The vessel struck the steam- } 3 cer at midships gangway on larboard side.\u2014 ; i The two vessels separated instantly and the Augusta drifted by in darkness.At the moment of the collision there was music and dancing going on in the forward cabin.In an instant after the crash all was - still, and in half an hour the steamer sunk.I passed through the cabins; the ladies were pale, but silent.There was not a cry 3 or shrick\u2014no sound but the rush of steam aad the surge of the heavy sea.Whether - they were fully aware of the danger, or l whether their appalling situation rendered them speechless, I cannot tell, À boat was lowered at once with the design of going round upon the larboard side to examine the leak.There were two oars belonging to the boat, but just at the moment some person possessed himself of one of them and we were powerless to man- ; age the boat.We suceceded once in reaching the wheel, Lut were quickly drifted away and thrown upon the beach at Winetka, Only two r A Loats were left on the steamer.One of y | them contained thirteen persons, all of - whom were saved, - The other boat had cight persons, but C only four of them reached the shore alive, ¢ the others being drowned at the beach.r Before 1 leit the steamer the engine had ceased to work, the fires having been extin- à guished, The force und direction of the wind was such that the boats and fragments were drifted up the lake and would reach the shore in the vicinity off Winetka.As 1 stood unon the beach hopelessly looking back upon the route over which we had drifted, T could see in the gray of the morning objects floating upon the water, and sometimes I thought human beings strugglil:g with the waves.H.G.CAYRL, Clerk Lady Elgin, J FOURTH DISPATCH.Cimicatio, Sept.8.\u2014=The following persons left the Tremont House last evening and took passage on the Lady Elgin : F.A.Lumsden, wife, two children and servant, of New Orleans;
