They, of cou rse , Were all Irish, in ppe and all r belonging to the worki ng c l asses. None were y without orange ribands and coc k ades, man had the crimson cloaks of the Royal S carlet Sociey, t ,as it is termed, and all these faded s y mptoms of dis play were more or less stained with the unmistake able traces of dirty tavern wassail, which, in this country at least, forms a most important failure in all Orange organisations. Every third man carried a banner with " No Surrender" mottoes, or painted likenesses of King William, and a large minority had drawn swords, with which they flourished and vapoured and marshalled the others, as if about to lead them into action direct. There were plenty of men who acted as chaplains to the Lodges, and who were dressed as much like clergymen as their dirty surplices could make them, with orange bows and orange ribands over all. Their chief leader, a Mr. Robinson, in a medley costume, went about with others on horseback, haranguing each Lodge, exhorting them to stand by their colours, and die by their colours rather than give way. In making such arrangements this morning passed. The remonstrances and entreaties of the authorities of the town were of no avail ; the Orangemen replied that either the Prince or the Orangemen must give way, and it should not be the Orangemen if they stood there for a month. The spot chosen for the landing of the Prince was at the battery, a small work commanding the ap proach to the town from Lake Ontario, and sur rounded by high stone walls, which prevented its being seen into from the adjoining street. Here the chief authorities of the town were in waiting, and here Capt. Flannigan brought down his troop of Volunteer Cavalry, all wearing the Orange riband and insignia on their uniforms, the gallant Captain himself being so covered with such tawdry decorations as to look at a distance like a General officer. This innovation in uniform was at once noticed, and Capt. Flannigan was requested to take them off himself and desire his men to do the same ; but this he refused to do, and the news of hislletermination was quickly spread through the procession, and excited general admiration and ap plause. At last the Kingston steamer came in sight, was received with a Royal salute, and great was the excitement as she came alongside the wharf, for every one made sure that the Prince was about to land forthwith, and the Orangemen cheered, not in welcome to the Prince, but solely and entirely for what they rather prematurely considered was their own, undoubted victory over their young guest. But an hour passed, and yet another, and still he did not land. At first it was said he was putting on his uniform, next that he was receiving addresses, then that he would land privately. At last the truth came out in the form of an official verbal intimation from the Mayor to the Orangemen that his Royal Highness would not land to join any partisan procession of the kind; that his Royal Highness would remain till nine o'clock the next morning to allow them time to think over it, and if the demonstration were then persisted in he would leave Kingston alto gether. The chiefs of the movement, lam told, upon this held a short council, at which it was determined nem. con. that his Royal Highness might quit Kingston if he chose, but that land he should not without the Orange procession to accom pany him. With this resolution the procession at last broke up, and horsemen were flying through the town all the night, warning the members of the Lodges that the Prince might try and land privately at 8 a.m. next morning, and that, therefore, it be hoved them to be out and stirring with their pro cession early. There was a masquerading pro cession through the town that night, and most of the houses refused to illuminate, and there was an immense amount of drunkenness, and a great deal of loud, vapouring, stupid talk about their resist ance to the Prince's wishes being supported by their Orange brothers across the water ; that the Orangemen in Ireland could shake him on his throne, &c., with other nonsense of the same kind, which angry ignorant men will talk, but which one hardly expected to hear from those who claim to be the only loyal subjects in Canada. At 8 o'clock on the morning of Wednesday the 3d the Orangemen were again at their posts in pro cession round the battery, and so hour after hour, passed till midday, and the thing began to wear a ridiculous and undignified aspect. There were the Prince and his party quietly in his boat inside the battery, and there were Orangemen outside standing obstinately in the road, as they had done all the previous day. At last Lord Lyons came ashore to inform the authorities that the Prince would leave in an hour, and to convey to an American company of Volunteers his Royal Highness's regrets that he would not be able to have the pleasure of seeing them at Kingston. The Orangemen, however, only considered this a ruse to get them out of the way, and remained as firm as ever. At last the Royal steamer moved out of the battery, and the Orange men called out that he was going to land privately some two miles below the town. If such a step had been likely it would, one would have thought, have been a sufficient humiliation for the Prince to satisfy even the hot-headed bigots of Kingston. But this was not so, and off they all started at a run to get their procession to the landing before him. They had only the exercise, however, for their pains, for the steamer stood westward up the lake, and in a few minutes was out of sight. When he was really gone the people were, of course, bitterly angry, though they affected to consider the whole thing a victory and decided tri umph for the Orange party. A mass meeting was eventually held, at which some violent language was used against both the Prince and the Duke, and it was decided privately that all the Orange men of Kingston that could follow to the places where the Prince was likely to land should at once do so, and meet him at the various landing-towns with their flags and banners, and try everywhere to compel him to accept their procession, or not land at all. This was done accordingly, and a large party started at once for Belleville, the next town at which the Prince was to disembark. I have just heard by telegraph from that place that there the procession was again formed on the land ing wharf, and that his Royal Highness again re fused to land, and went away in the steamer for Coburg. I am on the point of starting for that town, which I shall reach as soon as the Royal steamer. Telegrams say that the people of Coburg will not allow an Orange procession, but to prevent this backsliding a number of the Orange men of Kingston have gone up there, bent on mak ing a procession at all hazards. I have also had several telegrams from Toronto, and fear, from all I hear, that there is every prospect of a riot at .n h e place. The Orangemen are said to be determined on having their display, and the Scotch Presby terians, I am told, are coming in there in large n num bers from all parts of the country, bent drivingaltemp the Orangemen into the river if they urs, but, at These, however, I hope, are only ram by telegraph any rate, I can send on detailed _newsoBth.

This however did not turn out to be the case, and there seemed no chance of inducing either pro vince to waive its claims. Under these circum stances the provinces did the thing next best to coming into an agreement between themselves. They admitted that agreement was impossible, and determined to refer the question to the arbitration of a third party. One of the benefits which our colonies derive from their union with this country is that they have in the Home Government a fair antLimpartial arbitrator, to whom they can refer matters of difference which they are unable to arrange. This course was adopted on this occasion. The question of a capital was referred to the deci sion of her Majesty, with an understanding that whatever she decided should be, without hesitation, carried into effect. The Queen some three years ago, under the advice of her Colonial Secretary, gave her award in favour of the city of Ottawa, It would seem that the decision must have been an eminently impartial one, since its effect was to satisfy nobody and to unite those who agreed in nothing else in the most extreme dislike of the course to which they had bound themselves to agree. These who never found themselves on the same side before—Orangemen and French Canadians, Protes tants and Roman Catholics, representatives of all the most conflicting interests—appear to have agreed for once heartily and thoroughly in the dis like of Ottawa. There was some show of resistance at first, and an attempt was made in the Canadian Parliament to repudiate the award. But the case was too clear. The submission to the arbitration of the Queen had been perfectly absolute and unre served, and there was nothing for it but a grumbling and ungracious obedience. Therehas certainly been no hurry in giving effect to the decision, but there is a point beyond which delay has become impos sible. The money has been voted with the most bitter regret by the Canadian Parliament, and the Prince of Wales, in the midst of that deluge which has consistently waited on his steps ever since he set foot on the American Continent, laid the first stone of the intended Parliamentary build ings at Ottawa, described as a Gothic pile ac cording to the very straightest sect of that species of architectural fanaticism. With the account of this ceremony our correspondent has combined a description of the city of Ottawa, which we con fess has filled us with very serious misgiving as to the wisdom of the step which her Majesty has been advised to take in selecting it as the capital of Canada, and given us, and we think the Queen's advisers, strong reason to rejoice that the question has not gone so far that it is too late for recon sideration. The great river Ottawa, the most considerable of the tributaries of the St. Lawrence, falls into that mighty artery of the North American Conti nent through two branches. Between those branches lies the island on which is situated the Royal mountain at the feet of which lies the large and busy city of Montreal. Nature seems to have marked out this point as the proper site for the metropolis of Canada. Although situated in the Lower Province, it is just on the boundaries of the two. Its position is healthy and commanding; it lies close to the stream of the St. Lawrence, which is evidently destined to carry the vast trade created by the labours of a population settled around the lakes, which form the finest system of freshwater navigation in the world. It is at the head of the navigation of the St. Lawrence, and by far the most considerable place in the country. It is connected with the southern side of the river by the magni ficent bridge, nearly two miles long, to which the Prince of Wales put the last rivet a fortnight ago. Its railways run eastward to Quebec, westward to the Mississippi, northward to Ottawa itself, and southward to Boston and New York. We do not now speak of its former rivals—Kingston, Quebec, and Toronto—for it seems to us perfectly clear that the claims of Montreal are so predominant over theirs that, if existing arrangements are to be disturbed. they must be disturbed in favour of Mon treal. What, then, are the claims of Ottawa that it should have been preferred to a place possessing so many and striking advantages as Montreal ? The claims of Ottawa are, that it stands on the boundary line between the two provinces, like Montreal, and that it is capable of being made into an exceedingly strong fortress—a merit which it possesses in com mon with Quebec. On the ether hand, Ottawa is a small town, containing at the most 12,000 inha bitants. It is at present the abode of a rough and disorderly population of lumberers. The town is very incomplete, and by no means suited for the abode of the Legislature. All public buildings have to be erected at a very great expense. Ottawa is reached by a branch from the Grand Trunk Railway which there is no probability will be carried beyond it. The stream below it is navigable only for ' steamers of every light draught of water; the stream above it is rendered useless for the purposes of navigation by rapids and a very considerable cata ract. In the immediate neighbourhood of the town the Ottawa is wide and shallow, and a bridge no tat inferior to the vast structure just complete dk of the Montreal will be required to unite one ban k is the river with the other.

The Colonial Secre tary has now seen the spot with his own eyes. If he approves it, now that he has seen it, there is no more to be said; but if the result of his inspection be to lead him to the same conclusion as that an nounced by our able and experienced correspondent, we cannot doubt that he will lose no time in ad vising her Majesty to rectify the error, and thus give to her Canadian subjects the most graceful and acceptable return in her power for the enthusiastic reception which they have given to their future Sovereign.— Times, P o O f 0 hLi.s—virAi wife, th T e ho p c o a l s i e ce .wa C sa o ffi U n r eos t t MURDEIt Neasam was brought before Mr R yesterday Thom d into, no further evidence having been taken fully gone . than to secure a remand of was sufficientthe prisoner.

She had only proceeded a few yards from the door, however, whin she fell on the pavement and almost immediately ex pired. Medical aid was speedily obtained, but in vain : the weapon had penetrated to the heart, and death was inevit able and almost immediate. The husband on discovering the fatal result of his passion ran off, in doing so passing close to the scarcely lifeless body of his wife.

(From tho Special Correspondent of the Tines.) KINGSTON, SEPT. 6, The Royal tour through Upper Canada has reached as far as this dirty, stagnant little town, on the shores of Lake Ontario. The Royal visit here, though very brief, has been more than suffi ciently long to afford a most unfavourable impres sion of both place and people, and to give in its . straggling streets—irregular without picturesque ness, and dilapidated without antiquity—another instance, if one were wanted, of how difficult it is to force any town into the dignity of a capital. To such a position with regard to Canada it was at ono time thought probable that Kingston might be ele vated; and, in spite of the opposition of the people, every influence of the then Governor-General was devoted to the attainment of that end. The result is much the same here as it will be with Ottawa some five years hence. The fact of the Parliament buildings having been solemnly commenced at the latter place is not of much account. Houses of Par liament have been scattered almost broadcast over Canada, without effecting a new capital anywhere, or at all shaking the consideration of the people for their only real centre and metropolis at Montreal. The buildings at Ottawa, if ever finished, will make an admirable lunatic asylum whenever the town is sufficiently prosperous to require them for that pur pose; and until then, and as some £400,000 will be necessary for their completion, the works may only be continued with the slow dignity which pertains exclusively to Parliament buildings both here and at home. The course taken by his Royal Highness to reach this disloyal little township of Kingston was about as circuitous as could well be managed, and at the same time one of the very best for show ing him the magnificent scenery of the Upper Ottawa, and, though in a mild and agreeable form, the difficulties incident to Canadian travel in the wilder parts of the country. This day's tour had been rather locked forward to by the Prince and all the Royal party, and, excepting the unavoid able inconveniences of heat and dust (component and essential parts of a rough day's travel any where), the whole journey from first to last was one of the most agreeable and diversified that the Prince has had in Canada. He left Ottawa a little before eight o'clock in the morning of the 3d, and some two hours after a loyal, patient, and much enduring crowd had been standing in the mud round his hotel to give him one farewell cheer. The first stage was by carriage to Aylmer, a little village on th edge of the Upper Ottawa, and about 10 miles from that town. There was no peculiarity about this drive, save that it was very rapid and very dusty—for the day for once was fine, and the fierce rays of the sun even at that early hour gave promise of one of those scorching days which at this time of the year occasionally glare down on Canada with all the heat of a West Indian summer. If there had been no arches over the road, which wound along the shores of the Ottawa, the fact would have been worthy of special mention; but as it was I have only to report, what has been so often told before, that arches seemed to spring up everywhere the Prince would, could, or might pass. At little hamlets where only three or four log cabins were in view, and where the whole popula tion—to the number of some 35 or 36—turned out en nzasse in a group might be covered with a table cloth, there was sure to be an arch of some shape or other. It might only be, as it very often was, a mere bent screen of spruce firs, decked here and there with huge bouquets of wild flowers, or twisted round with garlands of water lilies and wild ge raniums. But, whatever the effect, it was always a kind, spontaneous effort to do honour to the Prince; and the little knot of settlers who reared it were always close beneath, bareheaded and dressed in their best, and each with something like a flag in his hands, content and happy if his Royal Highness only for one brief second drove under an arch which it had taxed their slender means and taken them hours of labour to erect. On lakes and rivers, in wild and unknown spots, the evidences of strong and almost devotional loyalty with which the Prince has been welcomed have been really something touching. Even in byway clearings in the forest, when the Royal train has shot past at full speed, glimpses may be caught amid the trees of rough log shanties all covered over with fir branches and flowers, and with a family of settlers gathered round the charred stumps in front, waiting perhaps all day merely to shout and cheer as it flew on. The journey from Ottawa to Brookville was one long-continued repetition of such incidents, except when at Brookville itself, where the people gave his Royal Highness a reception which he may, perhaps, find surpassed in extent at other places, but which for general beauty of effect was better than any he has yet had in all Canada, Lower or Upper. At Aylmer, a pretty little village above Ottawa, the whole place was checkered with arches of every sort. What they wanted in high art effect was more than compensated by their number, and, speaking at random, I should say there must have been an arch erected or garland hung across the road for every ten people in the place. At Aylmer the party embarked on board a steamer which was to convey them higher up the Ottawa to Les Chats Portage, where the canoes were waiting. The scenery during the journey up was of exquisite beauty. The weather was that hot, dead, sultry calm when lake scenery, as this part of the river may be called, is always seen to the best advantage—when the water seems to languish under the sun in a lazy calm, as if oppressed by heat, and the mountains have a dim cool blue about them, with all the rich, soft, glowing indistinctness of one of Turner's land scapes. It was such a lake as this the Prince went up, with a great, fertile, but utterly wild country stretching round—a hugh extent of rich uncultivated land, supporting a wolf or a bear to such a number of square miles as, under happier auspices, would give food and labour for all the population of Lan cashire. It is a painful, even a shameful, truth—but I am sure that it is a truth—that more is known in England of the Terai, or the mouth of the Peiho, than of the whole of Canada or the Provinces put together—aye, and even among public men and great colonial oracles. Twenty years ago Macau lay told how even well-educated Englishmen were not ashamed to confess their utter ignorance of the history of Hindostan—how they could not even tell the difference between a Hindoo and a Mussulman, nor name the country over which Holkar once ruled. How many well-educated Englishmen are there now who, if told that Nova Scotia was an island, and, like Labrador, half rock, half glacier, would disbelieve it P What are the po pular: notions of New Brunswick—the Liverpool of our North American Provinces—the finest and most flourishing of all our colonies out here? What is generally thought of Prince Edward Island ? I am sorry to think that the ignorance on all connected with these colonies can arise only from the most utter indifference either to where they are or what they are. But, to return to the Prince on the Upper Ottawa (less known by far than Lake Ngami), the boat continued steaming quickly on its way for some miles. The captain of the vessel and one or two others connected with the canoe expedition could tell the best deer runs of the shores around, and how from 10 to 12 might easily be killed in a day ; but beyond this they knew nothing, for nothing whatever is known. Once a lumber-boat came out to salute with mus kets, and once or twice a shrill halloa of welcome came from those on the cliffs who had been looking for the Prince's boat since daybreak, but beyond these two incidents there was nothing to tell of human beings, or that these great wilds had ever been trodden by the foot of man. When will the Government send out some Livingstone to explore and explain the resources of Upper Canada ? There are maps of it, as there are maps of Japan, but of both countries any single State in the Union knows more than all England put together. A sudden bend in the wide-lake river brought the Royal steamer in front of the Chats portage, one of the finest pieces of rock and river scenery on the Ot tawa, if not on any river in North America. It is a huge semicircle of rocks, nearly three miles wide, and over which the river pours in no less than 24 distinct huge waterfalls, some of them above 50 or 60 feet high, but all with a broad impetuous rush of water which gives to the portage a wild, rough, animated grandeur, the effect of which from the river below is striking beyond all description. Seen, as the Prince saw it, with the hot sun lighting up each cataract with rainbows, the gay little canoes dancing about among the Rapids below them ; the intense, deep stillness of the pine forests sleeping in the sun ; the air of still, solemn, wild repose which reigned over everything, moun tain and rock, lake and wood, with only the great drowsy roar of the cataracts to fill the ear with a dim, sleepy hum, these made altogether one of those scenes of soft, impressive grandeur which can always be remembered. The fussy little steamer which bore the P-inee seemed an intrusion on this great scene of nature's repose, and when the pace was slowed as the cataracts were neared it seemed as if the very boat felt the influence of the scene, and was moving quietly lest it should break the still ness. Slowly as the boat approached the portage the coves, manned by lumbermen, Wipe, ad squaws, tossed their paddles into the air and gave one long cheering whoop, which went echoing away among the hills with a soft gentle noise as the sound died out. In another minute the canoes were alongside the steamer. The Royal party had been reduced to its smallest limits ; only the Duke of Newcastle, the two Equerries, Commodore Sey mour, Mr. Engleheart, Mr. Rose, Dr. Acland, M. Cartier, the Canadian Prime Minister, Mr. Elliott, and the Marquis of Chandos, who is out here tra velling for amusement, with the Governor-General and his Aide-de•Carnp, Captain Retallach, were pre sent. The Prince, with the Duke and the Gover nor-General, went in ono very large canoe; for the rest one canoe was placed at the disposal of every two members of the party. Before definitively arranging themselves, however, the canoes were carried over the portage, and launched at the other side in the comparatively smooth water above the Falls, and here the whole party embarked and started away over the water to the half•mile por tage, another rocky Rapid some three miles up the river, where the canoes were again to be landed and carried through the woods to the smooth water beyond them. The Prince's canoe was manned by 12 strapping Scotch lumberers, who sent it along like an arrow, so that it soon became a race, all paddling and splashing through the water as if row ing for their lives, and all the crews occasionally re freshing themselves with a long shrill whoop that was deafening to hear. M. Cartier gave out the old Canadian song, " Ii y'a longtemps que je t'aime, jamais je ne t'oublierai," which was caught up in an instant by the boatmen, and its sweet quick melody rather agreeably replaced the discordant whoops and yells with which the crews had excited and goaded each other into exerting their utmost speed. Faster and faster they went on fouling each other as they passed, splashing everybody, 'laugh ing, cheering, and singing, the crews labouring at their paddles as if they would break them, and straining every nerve under a sun which on the still water was almost tropical in its heat. But fast as the canoes paddled there was one which kept its place with ease, and this was an Indian canoe, of which half the crew were Squaws, clad after the festive and highly decorated custom of their nation, but mounting English hats and feathers as a deli cate compliment, doubtless, to their Royal visitor. In the centre of this canoe was a young Squaw, with her little papoose swaddled down upon a flat strip of board, which she held aloft something after the fashion of a sail, and seemed so desirous to at tract the Prince's attention with it that I began to think she would end by offering it to him as a pre sent at the next landing. There were some quick Rapids at the foot of the poi tage which it required no ordinary exertions on the part of the lumberers to overcome, but at last they passed them, and ran the canoes under shelter of the land into a pictur esque little nook among the rocks and trees, where everybody scrambled out as they best could. In another minute the lumberers had dragged their light bark skiffs from the water, had them up on their shoulders, and were trudging away through the woods to the next point of embarcation. This was said to be half a mile distant, but I must own it seemed to me the longst half mile I ever walked in all my life—not that it was an uninteresting one, far from it. It was impossible not to be amused at the helter-skelter ramble of the whole party 1 1 through the thick forest, with the rude procession of canoes and flags intermixed among them. After this quick, hot scramble of some 20 minutes the path through the forest emerged at last upon an immense sheet of water, like a large inland lake, though only the uppermost continuation of the Ottawa, and on this the party again embarked in the canoes and stood across the water some six miles to Arapsin. At this beautiful little village there had been some handsome arches erected, and here of course in the middle of a great crowd an address of welcome was read. This ceremony over his Royal Highness proceeded to the picturesque iiLi°ch'Agwholiun where the party partook ld have done credit to the , T ohfo r au o s i l s eu F nofe r h e A r el e or s n. for l‘wi its style and elegance. From this point carriages were provided for a long drive through the forest road to a place called Almonte, a distance of 20 miles. The trackwas partly through the forest, over what is called a corduroy road, a colonial synonym for no road at all—a kind of track where the natural inequalities of the ground are developed to their utmost by a profuse inter mixture of pine logs. The route at this part lay through a perfectly wild country. Only a log cabin broke the monotony of the forest here and there, with a group of ragged brown girls and boys clustered on pine logs to cheer the Prince. The despotism of fashion, however, has penetrated into the remotest recesses of these back woods, for, however ragged may be the female members of a settler's family, I never saw any who did not wear the most monstrous wooden hoops under their pet ticoats. After a few miles of such a track the road turned on a better country, where the travelling was good, but so dirty that nearly all the suite were suffocated, and their dress and features be came alike of one dim tawny hue. At the village of Pakenham a great many arches had been built up ; but no pause was made here, as there were still some 70 miles to go by road and rail, and the day was waning fast. The pretty little village of Almonte (of course for the moment con cealed under the usual amount of evergreen) was reached a little before 6 o'clock, and by that time, with the exception of the Prince, not one single member of the party was distinguishable under their hideous masks of dust. In all my travels I have never seen any small party of gentlemen so utterly begrimed and filthy. Fortunately there was plenty of sherry and Seltzer water in the Royal car, and I have not the least doubt but th a t many members of the suite were driven to ablutions in the latter beverage. All haste was then made on for Brockville. Half way, however, the Prince had to alight and show him self to the people at Smith's Falls. They had been waiting in thousands outside the station all day, where a platform had been erected covered with scarlet cloth. On this the Prince came out, ex changed deafening WordsW ords to the welcome o f t hand people.bow ed in r e e h t l a u t n r g w n e a t d s o the a f few quite dark when Brockville was reached, and some 25,000 people had been waiting there also since 3 o'clock in th e a f ternoon. Th e P r i nce a li g ht e d under a rich pavilion, amid the tremendous cheers of those loyal settlers who had come in from all parts of the country. So me sa id an a dd ress was rea d, an d some one else inforlaed me that the Prince replied to it, but all I know of r a y own knowledge is that there was an immense crowd, an d rat h er a severe crus h ; that carriages were provided for all the suite, into which they scrambled somehow, and the procession through Brockville to the steamer Kingston com menced. The Firemen, t o th e num ber of som e 1,200, formed a double line on each side of the car riages, each having a Roman candle in his hand, and these shot out their brilliant sparks of light from both sides of the street, meeting in the centre above the carriages in a perfect arcade of coloured fire nearly a quarter of a mile long. The little town was in a blaze of light. Every house from the roof, to the basement was illuminated inside and out, and all the long groves of trees along the roads were covered with variegated lamps on every branch.. From the windows of the houses the people held Roman candles ; from the roofs they were letting off flights of rockets and bomb-shells and coloured fire; every bell in the place was ringing madly, and the whole was such a confused brilliant whirl of lamps, fireworks, and illumination, of people shouting, their caps into the air, and almost embracing the very horses of the Royal carriage, that the scene is describable in no way save by say ing that the united effect of all the receptions the Prince has had did not equal the wonderful wel come he received at the little town of Brockville. I am certain that the rest of the tour can only afford something better by its being on a larger scale, but while it lasted through the town New York itself could do nothing, except in extent, to surpass the extraordinary beauty of the scene at Brockville. Even when his Royal Highness was on board the steamer Kingston it did not end. There were fireworks on the water, bonfires on the Thousand Islands, flights of rockets from all parts of the town, serenades from all sorts of bands, every thing, in fact, which the most intense enthusiasm and loyalty could devise was done, and done admirably well. As a matter of course, there was very little sleep to be got in Brockville that night, and the rumours which I had heard of what was go i ng on a t t hi s place made me anxious to rea c h i t at once.

I am sorry to say that my narrative of enthusiastic receptions and grand displays, as far as this city is concerned, hi received A Very pudden check, And that Kin's ton, which, with a few other towns in Upper Cana , da, boasts of having exclusive possession of the feeling of loyal devotion to the Throne, has set an example of such insolent disregard of their Royal guest's wishes as has prevented the Prince from landing here at all. In cases like these, when 4to much angry feeling is abroad, it is very difficult to collect impartial or reliable information, but the general facts of the case are much as follows. The new towns of Upper Canada have, within the last few years, become un pleasantly conspicuous for Orange organisations of the most bitter and intemperate kind, even for these societies. In Lower Canada, the country round Montreal, and from Montreal down to Quebec, more than nine-tenths of the entire population are Roman Catholics. In a few towns of Upper Canada the protestants and Roman Catholics are pretty equal in numbers ; while in many, such as Kingston, Toronto, Coburg, Port Hope, and Belleville, the Romanists are only as 1 to 10 or 12, or even less. As a rule, however, a large majority of the popula tion of all Canada are Roman Catholics. What first led to the introduction of Orange societies in Upper Canada none, of course, can tell, though all are painfully aware of the fact, that since their organi sation, quiet and goodwill have almost entirely fled the towns in which they are established, owing to the incessant war of petty bickerings going on be tween the two parties. Some of the most danger ous fights and disturbances which have taken place in these towns have been owing to the Orange processions and celebrations of the 12th of July ; when the Romanists, too, have suddenly preached tolerance for all creeds, and generally Lenforced their arguments by a free fight with the Orange men. There had been a comparative lull in thse wretched quarrels for the last few weeks, when, most unfortunately, it occurred to the people of Toronto that the occasion of the Prince's landing at that city would afford a signal and favourable opportunity for a grand Orange procession and de monstration. Such an idea once started, of course, spread far and wide among the town, most notori ous for dissensions between the Orangemen and Roman Catholics. The Toronto people decided on having Orange arches, and receiving his Royal Highness with a great Orange procession. The Roman Catholics, of course, held meetings to pro test against this. Both parties wrote bitter letters to the daily papers ; third parties interfered in other journals ; and fourth parties put forth opin ions in peculiar organs to compromise matters, and of course made them worse than ever. A dispute of such a nature, of course, soon reached th e ears of the Duke of Newcastle and the Governor-Gene ral, and the former, as might be expected, at once wrote the following letter to Sir Edmund Head, which the Governor enclosed to the Mayor of To ronto,let e withoneequally strong of his own. The two t are as follow : My dear Sir Edmund, I 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. I am also told that they mean to appear in the procession similarly deco rated with party badges. It is obvious that a display of this nature on such an occasion is likely to lead to religious feud and breach of the peace, and it is my duty to prevent, as far as I am 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. I trust you may be able to persuade those who are con cerned in these preparations to abandon their intentions ; but that there may be no mistake, I 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 demun stration, or any other demonstation of a party character is persisted in, I shall advise the Prince to abandon his visit to the town altogether. I have heard, but with less certainty, that a similar de monstration is contemplated at Kingston. I need net say that my remarks equally apply to that or any other town. —I am, &c., NEWCASTLE. To the Right Hon. Sir E. Head. Ottawa, Aug. 31. Sir,—l have the honour to enclose a copy of a letter ad dressed to me by the Secretary of State for the Colonies, now in attendance on his Royal Highness the Prince of Wales. In explanation of this letter, I desire to call your atten tion 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 display in the procession which is to take place on the reception of his Royal Highness, and in the streets through which he is to pass certain emblems and decorations belonging especially to their own society. I may state in the most explicit terms that any such display, or any attempt to connect with his Royal Highness' reception, the public and open reception of the Orangemen 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 dis tinction of creed or party ; and it would be inconsistent with the spirit and object of such an invitation, and such a visit, to thrust on him the exhibition of banners or ether badges of distinction which are known to be offensive to any por tion of her Majesty's subjects. J feel satisfied that his Grace's reasons for expressing these views will, on consideration, be deemed satisfactory ; and I 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. I have further to request that you will, by letter, ad dressed to me at Kingston, inform me explicitly as to whether any doubt exists as to a compliance with the wishes expressed by the Duke of Newoastle 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.—l have the honour to be, &c., His Worship the Mayor, Toronto. EDMUND HEAD. Kingston, though merely alluded to en passant, was the first place at which his Royal Highness was to land, and here it was tacitly understood that the question of whether the Prince or the Orangemen were to give way was to be tried, so Toronto for a moment fell into the background, and both parties concentrated their attention on this dirty little town. The resolution of the Orangemen here was soon come to. They determined that Orange arches should be erected, and the Prince should be received with an Orange procession in attendance on the Corporation, and with none other. lam assured that this resolution was encouraged to the utmost privately by the Orange leaders at Toronto, who sent constant telegrams to Kingston exhorting them to stand firm, and insist on an Orange demon stration, and that 15,000 Orangemen would be in Toronto to do the same. Thus stimulated and fur ther urged for ward by a Mr. Flannigan, Grand Master, a chief butcher of Kingston, and a captain of a troop of Volunteer and very Orange Cavalry, the thing of course went forward duly accompanied, as is usual in such cases, by the strongest protesta tions of loyalty and the constant assertion that what was being done was entirely for the Prince's own good. Two Orange arches were accordingly erected in the chief thoroughfares through which the Prince must pass. Except as sources of keen ill-feeling, these would have been totally unworthy of note, so poor and paltry were they both in design and execution. The one I saw, and, as lam told, the best, was merely papered with orange paper, and with rather a handsome model of the Ark of the Covenant at the top. The sides were filled in with the Orange societies' insignia, with portraits of Garibaldi and the Prince, the latter with the motto of " The faith of my forefathers and mine," with portraits of " William 111., of glorious, pious, and immortal memory ;" little banners contained the names of Baker, Walker, and Murray, of Lon donderry fame, with scrolls of "No Surrender," and other mottoes equally inappropriate to the occasion. Whether public attention was so much engrossed in the erection of this trophy, which after the Prince's wishes on the subject could only bo regarded as insulting, or whether they wished to render it more conspicuous by not erecting others I cannot say, but it is certain that scarcely any other attempts were made at decorating the town, and that the few other arches that were 'put up were worse than any he had seen on his way through the woods from Aruprivi to Almonte. Of course the Royal suite soon heard of this wanton dis courtesy, and a private intimation, I believe, was conveyed to Kingston that the Orange procession must be given up, or the Prince would not land. The Mayor accordingly issued an order that there n would be no municipal procession whatever, .upo which the chiefs of the Orangemen met, en couraged by Mr. Flannigan and Toronto telegram s, tlk about decided with a good deal of hot-headed they a would giving his Royal Highness a lesson, that . with cession, and receive him with an Orange pro did not if the Prince such a display only, and that t land at all. like it he might leave it, andn t o e Royal party, was The Kingston steamer, with h but perhaps in order expected to arrive about noon • p he scenery of the Thou to show to some advantage t sand Islands (though how. that could have been and of t view of allowing the people ings on time to change their minds, the arrival of the boat was much managed l l :m th a i t s delayed. the Orangemen would have better taste and more loyalty than to insist . on insulting their young Prince and guest, it was made in vain, for by ten o'clock in the day the obnoxious procession began a de lo la s y st w o to muster in all sorts of tawdry finery, marching along to the tunes of the " Boyne Water," and if croppies lie down."
