Issue of $2,800,000 First Mortgage Bonds carrying in terest at the rate of Seven per Cent., payable in London at the fixed rate of 4s. per dollar, redeemable in 30 years in Now York, or at the option of holders in London at the fixed rate of 4s. per dollar. The payment of the principal and interest of those Bonds is secured. Istly. By a mortgage on the whole' lin6having ' a total length of 130 miles, the cost of which amounts to 53,250,000 2ndly. By a mortgage on the estates or proper ties of the Company at St. Pa - al and St. Cloud, valued at , 400,000 ardly. By a mortgage on 512,000 acres of fer tile lands, near the line, valued at 87,650,000 It is proposed to issue $780,000 of these Bonds for the purpose of completing the entire line from St. Paul to Watab, and placing it in working Ardor by the spring of this year. The price of issue of each Bond of $l,OOO, or £2OO ster ling, carrying interest from the Ist December, 1865, is £l4O, payable by instalments as follows: • .£7 on application, £2l on allotment, £56 on 20th March, £56 on sth April. £l4O Subscribers will have the option of paying in full, under discount at the rate of 7 per cent. per annum. Tho defini tive Bonds will be delivered in exchange for Scrip, as soon as it is paid up. The remaining $2,020,000 of this Mortgage will be re tained in the hands of Trustees or their Agents, and will only be issued in exchange for the Bonds already in exis tence, viz.:— $820,000 let Mortgage on the Railroad. $1,200,000 2nd Mortgage on the Railroad, and Ist Mort gage on 307,200 Acres of Land. These Bonds can hereafter be converted into the Conso lidated Bonds of the present issue, at the option of the holders, on their paying £2O on each $l,OOO Bond. Ten per cent. of each Bond issued, or £2O, will be set aside to form a Guarantee Fund against contingencies, which fund will amount upon the entire debt to £56,000 sterling, which will be invested in the Six per Cent. Bonds of the United States. The Bonds of this Mortgage will be accepted at par, in payment of Lands purchased, and the Company reserve to themselves the right of redeeming these Bonds—at any time before maturity—at a premium of Ten per Cent. According to the Mortgage of the Company, no deed can be given of any of the Lands without retiring a corre sponding amount of the Bonds. The Lino in question promises the most satisfactory re sults, and the 50 miles already completed afford evidence of what may be looked for in the future. The Lands are of an excellent quality, very fertile, and possess water and timber in abundance. The climate is extremely healthy. . _ In the present instance 512,000 acres are mortgaged for $2,800,000, or at the rate of 180 acres for each $l,OOO Bond. St. Paul is the principal town of Minnesota, and the population is continually increasing, to an extent only pos sible in these countries, where thousands of hands can always find sufficient employment. The population was:— In 1850 In 1860 In 1864 There already exists a line of communication with the existing railroads, and as the further navigation of the Mississippi is impeded at SL Paul, it is necessary to obviate that inconvenience by extending railroad accommodation to the westward and northward of Minnesota, and to and from British North America. _ _ _ The traffic, which is already considerable, will no doubt bo largely developed when the fertile Hudson Bay terri tory shall be intersected by a railroad. The communication with the Pacific, so ardently desired in America, will, it is confidently believed, be at no distant date realised by the completion of this road, and the con struction of extending lines, forming links in the shortest and best route to the Western Seaboard. _ _ _ -- gul:;;(;4tions for these Bonds will be rocoived from Gth ara, a In --ms..ercr 11118 - 121InCa : ui — m - criara:XLVMETIIIVUUrantr Company.

The Christys (after an absence of five years) return to London with their band strengthened and im proved in every respect, their entertainment being unani mously pronounced b,r the metropolitan press to be the most sparkling in London.

PROVIDENCE ROW NIGHT REFUGE, FOR HOMELESS WOMEN AND CHILDREN, 14A, Providence-row, Finsbury, E.C. Sixty Thousand Nights' Lodgings, with Suppers and Breakfasts, have been given in this Institution to the destitute, who otherwise would have had to pass the nights in the bleak streets or under railway arches. At present nearly 500 Nights' Lodgings, with Suppers and Breakfasts, are given gratuitously every week. The poor from all parts are admitted, the only condition being that they are homeless and starving. The Manager, &c., receives no remuneration whatever. Notwithstand ing the provision made by the Poor Houses, each night numbers of young women, children, and orphans are, for want accommodation, refusedadmittance, and have to spend night after night in the cold, wet, and sleet. To meet this evil, and to provide more ample accommoda tion, £2,000 has been raised, but to accomplish the work a sum of at least £l,OOO more will be required. Besides providing shelter for the homeless, this year it is proposed, as far as the donations obtained for the pur pose will allow, to give bread and coals to poor families in want. Will you, in your charity, help to carry on and accomplish what has been begun ? Will you help to give shelter to the really homeless, and food to the really starving ? The smallest donation will be most welcome, and, night and morning, the prayers of the destitute will be offered in your behalf.

At Washington a large and enthusiastic meeting was held, at which resolutions in favour of the policy adopted by the President in vetoing the Freedmen's Bureau Bill were passed. After the adjournment of the meeting the persons composing it proceeded to the open space in front of the executive mansion. President Johnson thtre made a speech, in which he reiterated his policy, and declared that that policy was to be pursued. The following is a full report of the speech _ _ _ Fellow-citizens,—For I presume I have the right to ad dress you as such—to the committee who have conducted and organised this meeting so far, I have to render my sincere thanks for the compliments and approbation they have manifested in their personal address to myself, and in the resolutions they have adopted. (At this point a firemen's procession attracted the attention of a portion of the crowd, and created such a disturbance that the Presi dent was unable to proceed for several minutes. Mr. Fen dell, the chairman of the committee, in vain endeavoured to restore order. Hon. Green Clay Smith then took the stand and succeeded in making himself heard, and in bringing the crowd to something like silence.) The President proceeded—Fellow-citizens,—l was about to tender my thanks to the committee who waited upon me and presented me with the resolutions adopted on this occasion —resolutions, as I understand, compli mentary to the policy pursued by this administration since it came into power. lam free to say to you on this occa sion that it is extremely gratifying to me to know that so large a portion of my fellow-citizens approve and endorse the policy that has been adopted, and is intended to be carried out: (Applause.) That policy has been one which was intended to restore the glorious Union of these States and their original relations to the Government of the United States. (Prolonged applause.) This seems to be a day peculiarly appropriate for such a manifestation—the day that gave birth to him who founded this Government — the Father of his Country ; of him who stood at the head of the Government when all the States entered into the Union. (The firemen's procession again succeeded in creating sufficient disturbance to make the President un able to be heard. The President good-humouredly re marked : " Don't interfere with them ; they are right, and always were right.") Ile proceeded :—This day, I say, is peculiarly appropriate to endorse the restoration of the union of these States founded by the Father of his Coun try: Washington, whose name the city bears, is embalmed in the hearts of all who love free Government. (A voice— "So is Andrew Johnson.") Washington, who, in the language of his eulogists, was "first in peace, first in war, first in the hearts of his countrymen." No people can claim him ; no nation can appropriate him ; his reputation and life are the common inheritance of all who love free Government. I, to-day, had the pleasure of attending the National Washington Monument Association, which is directing its efforts to complete the monument erected to his memory. I was glad to meet them, and so far as I could to give them my humble influence. A monument is being erected to him within* a stone's throw of the spot from which I address you. Let it be completed. (Cheers.) Let the pledges which all those States, assocations, and corpo rations have placed in that monument of their faith and love for this union be proseryed. Let it be completed, and PRICP 4d. STAMPVD sd. in this connection let me refer to the motto upon the stone sent from my own State. God bless—(A. voice —"And bless you")—a state which has struggled for the preservation of Union,athnedisnow gl s in tr t u li g efi in el g d and in the coun c ils o f th e na ti on , in consequence of the interruption that has taken place in her relations with the Federal go vernment, growing out of the rebellion, but struggling to recover those relations and take her stand where she has stood since 1796. A motto is inscribed on that stone sent here to be placed in that monument of freedom and in commemoration of Washington. I stand by that sentiment, and she is willing to stand by it. It was the sentiment enunciated by the immortal Andrew Jackson, " The Fede- Uuion—it must be preserved." (Wild shouts of applause.) " The Federal Union—it must be preserved." Were it possible to have the great man whose statue is now before me, and whose portrait is behind me, in the Capitol, and whose sentiment is inscribed on the stone deposited in the monument—were it possible to communicate with the illustrious dead, and he could be informed of or made to understand the working and progress of faction, rebellion, and treason, the bones of the old man would stir in their coffin, and he would rise and shake off the habiliments of the tomb; he would extend that long arm and finger of his, and he would reiterate that glorious sentiment, " The Federal Union—it must be preserved." (Applause.) But we see and witness what has transpired since his day. We remember what he did in 1833 when treason, treachery, and infidelity to the Government and constitution of the United States then stalked forth. It was his power and influence that then crushed the treason in its infancy. It was then stopped ; but only for a time —the spirit con tinued. There were men disaffected to the Government, both North and South. We had peculiar institutions, of which eomo complained and to which others were at tached. One portion of our countrymen advocated that institution in the South ; another opposed it in the North; and it resulted in creating two extremes. The one in the South reached the point at which they were prepared to dissolve the Government of . the United States to secure and preserve their peculiar institution ; and in what I may say on this occasion I want to be understood. There was another portion of our countrymen who were oppesad to this peculiar institution in the South, and who went ip the extreme of being willing to break up the Government to get clear of it. (Applause.) lam talking to you to-day in the common phrase, and assume to be nothing but a citizen, and one who has been fighting for the constitution and to preserve the Government. These two parties have been arrayed against each other ; and I stand before you to-day, as I did in the Senate in 1860, in the presence of those who were making war on the constitution, and wanted to disrupt the Government, to denounce, as I did then in my place, those who were so engaged as traitors. I have never ceased to repeat, and, so far as my efforts could go, to carry out the sentiments I then uttered (Cheers.) I have already remarked that there were two parties, one for destroying the Government to preserve slavery, and the other to break up the Government to destroy slavery. The objects to be accomplished were different, it is true, so far as slavery is concerned, but they agreed in one thing, and that was the breaking up of the Government. They agreed in the destruction of the Government, the pre cise thing which I have already stood up to oppose. Whether the disunionists come from the South or the North I stand now where I did then, to vindicate the Union of these States and the constitution of the country. (Ap plause.) The rebellion or treason manifested itself in the South. I stood by the Government. I said I was for the Union with slavery ; or I was for the Union without slavery. In either alternative I was for my Government and the constitution. (Applause.) The Government has stretched forth its strong arm, and with its physical power has put down treason in the field. Yes, the section of country which has arrayed itself against the Government has been put down by the Government itself. Now, what do these people say ? We said, "No compromise; we can settle this question with the South in eight-and-forty hours." How ? " Disband your armies, acknowledge the constitution of the United States, obey the law, and the whole question is settled." Well, their armies have been disbanded. They come forward now in a spirit of magnanimity and say, "We were mistaken; we made an effort to carry out the doctrine of secession and dissolve the Union, but we have failed; and, having traced this thing to a logi cal and physical consequence and result, we now again come forward and acknowledge the flag of our coun try, obedient to the constitution and the supremacy of the law." (Cheers.) I say, then, when you have yielded to the law, when you acknowledge your allegiance to the Government, I am ready to open the doors of the Union, and restore you to your old relations, to the government of our fathers. (Prolonged applause.) Who, I ask, has suffered more for the Union than I have ? I shall not now repeat the wrongs or s'iffering inflicted upon mo ; but it is not the way to deal with a whole people in the spirit of revencre. I know much has been said about the exercise of There is no one who has laboured harder than I have to have the principal conscious and intelligent traitors brought to justice; to have the law vindicated, and the groat fact vindicated that treason is a crime. Yet, while conscious, intelligent traitors are to be punished, should whole States, communities, and people be made to submit to and bear the penalty of death ? I have, perhaps, as much hostility and as much resentment as a man ought to have; but we should conform our action and our conduct to the example of Him who founded our holy religion that I would liken this to it or bring any comparison, for 1. am not going to detain you long. But, gentlemen, I came into power under the con stitution of the country and by the approbation of the people. And what did I find ? I found eight millions of people who wore in fact condemned under the law, and the penalty was death. Under the idea of revenge and resent ment, they were to be annihilated and destroyed. 0, how different this from the example set by the Holy Founder of our religion, whose divine arm touches the horizon and embraces the whole earth! Yes, He who founded this great scheme came into the world and found our race condemned under the law—and the sentence was death. What was His example ? Instead of putting the world or a nation to death, He went forth with grace, and attested by his blooil and his wounds that he would die and let the nation live. (Applause.) Let them repent and lot them acknowledge their allegiance. Let them become loyal and willing supporters and defenders of our glories stripes and stars and the constitution of our country. Let their leaders, the conscious, intelligent traitors, suffer the penalty of the law, but for the great mass who have been forced into this rebellion and misled by their leaders, I say leniency, kind ness, trust, and confidence. (Enthusiastic cheers.) But, my countrymen, after having passed through the rebellion and given such evidence as I have—though men croak a great deal about it now—(laughter)—when I look back through the battle fields and see manyof these brave men, in whose company I was in part of the rebellion where it was most difficult and doubtful to be found; before the smoke of battle has scarcely passed away ; before the blood shed has scarcely congealed, what do we find ? The rebellion is put down by the strong army of the government in the field ; but is it the only way in which we can have rebellion ? They struggled for the breaking up of the government, but before they are scarcely out of the battle field, and before our brave men have scarcely returned to their houses to renew the tics of affection and love, we find ourselves almost in the midst of another rebellion. (Applause.) The war to suppress our rebellion was to prevent the separation of the States, and thereby change the character of the go vernment and weakening its power ? Now, what is the change ? There is an attempt to concentrate the power of government in the hands of a few, thereby bringing about a consolidation which is equally dangerous and objection able with separation. (Enthusiastic applause.) We find that powers are assumed and attempted to be exercised of a most extraordinary character. What are they ? We find that governments can be revoluaionised—can be changed without going into the battle-field. Sometimes revolution the most disastrous to the people are effected without shed ding blood. The substance of our government may be taken away, leaving only the form and shadow. Now, what are the attempts? NA hat is being proposed? We find that, in fact, by an irresponsible central directory, nearly all the powers of government are assumed without even consult ing the legislative or executive departments of the govern ment.

And I cannot turn round now and give the direct lie to all I pro fess to have done in the last five years. (Applause.) I can do no such thing.

When princi ples are involved, my countrymen, when the existence of my country is imperilled, I will act as I did on former occa sions and speak what I think. I was saying that I bad held nearly all positions, from alderman, through both branches of Congress, and who is there that will say Andrew John son ever made a pledge that ho did not redeem, or made a promise he did not fulfil ? Who will say that he has ever acted otherwise than iu fidelity to the great mass of the people ? They may talk abcut beheading and usur .. . _ pation ; but when I am beheaded I want the American people to wituessl do not want by innuendoes, by indirect marks in high places to see the man who has assassination brooding in his bosom exclaim, " This Presidential obstacle must be gotten out of the way,",and I make use of a very strong expression when I say that I have no doubt the in tention was to incite assassination and so get out of the way the obstacle from place and power. *Whether by assas sination or not, there are individuals in this Government, I doubt not, who want to destroy our institutions and change the character of the Government. Are they not satisfied with the blood which has been shed ? Does not the murder of Lincoln 'appease the vengeance and wrath of the opponents of this Government ? Are they still un slacked ? Do they still want more blood ? Have they not got honour and courage enough to attain their objects otherwise than by the hands of the assassin ? No, no ; I am not afraid of assassins attacking me where a brave, courageous man would attack another. I only dread him when he would go in disguise, his footsteps noiseless. If it is blood they want let them have courage to strike like men. I know they are willing to wound, but they are afraid to strike. (Applause.) If my blood is to be shed because t vindicate the Union and the preservation of this Government in its original purity and character, let it be shod ; let an altar to the Uniou be erected, and then, if it is necessary, take me and' lay me upon it, and the blood that now warms and animates my existence shall bo poured out as a fit liberation to the Union of these States. (Great applause.) But let the opponents of the Government re member that when it is poured out " the blood of the -Mtil .yrzr Mt, 13. men, this Union will grow—it will continue to increase in strength and power though it may be cemented and sealed with blood. I have talked longer now than I intended. Lot me thank you for the honour you have done me. The New York Times of the 24th, in referring to this speech, says : This city was flooded on Thursday evening with the most extravagant and inflammatory reports concerning Presi dent Johnson's speech in Washington. Telegrams of this character were freely circulated in the meeting at the Cooper Institute and at General Grant's reception at the Loyal League Club, on Union-square. Special pains were taken to inform all that were accessible at both these gatherings that the President had thrown himself openly into the hands of the copperheads—that he harangued a mob of whitewashed secessionists and rebels in Washington, re pudiating all connexion with the Union party, denouncing in the most intemperate and vituperative style the recog nised leaders of that party in Congress and through the country, and declaring his purpose to crush their schemes of personal and party aggrandisement by force, if neces sary. It was declarod in these despatches that no Union man in Washington even professed any longer to count ..... upon his co-operation or sympathy in support of the prin ciples and measures of the Union organisation. Such re presentations had somewhat of the effect they were in tended to produce. They created a sentiment of anxiety and apprehension lest the temper of the President, aroused to a pitch of impatience by the insults and goads to which he had been subjected, might have impelled him into a position which would seriously weaken his hold upon the confidence and support of the great body of the American people. The perusal of his remarks in the morning jour- nays of yesterday dispelled these apprehensions, and dis- closed the real character of the machinery by which they had been aroused. ey yield obedience to the law, extend to them the right hd of fellowship, and let peace and union be restored. and cheers.) I have fought traitors and treason in the outh ; I opposed the Davises and Toombses, the Slidells, and a long list of others whose names I need not repeat ; and now, when I turn round at the other end of the line, I find men—l care not by what name you call them—(A Voice : " Call them traitors")--who still stand opposed to the restoration of the union of these States, and I am free to say to you that I am still for the preservation of this compact ; I am still for the preservation of the Union ; I am still in favour of this great government of ours :going on and following out its destiny. (A voice—" Give us the names.") A gentleman calls fur their names. Well, sup pose I should give them. (A Voice—" 'We know them.") I look upon them—l repeat it, as President or citizen —as being as much opposed to the fundamental principlespf the government and believe they are as much labouring to pre vent or destroy them as were the men who fought against us. (A Voice—" What are the names ?") I say Thadde- as Stevens, of Peunsylvania—(tremendous applause)—l say Charles Sumner—(great applause)—l say Wendell Phil lips, and others of the same stripe, are among them. (A Voice—" Give it to Forney.") Some gentleman in the crowd says, " Give it to Forney." I have only just to say that I do not waste my ammunition upon dead ducks. (Laughter and applause.) I stand for my country, I stand for the constitution, where I placed my feet' from my entrance into public life. They may traduce me; they may slander me, they may vituperate; but let me say to yen that it has no effect upon me. (Cheers.) And let me say in addition that I do not intend to be bullied by my enemies. (Applause, and a cry, "The people will sus tain you.") I know, my countrymen, that it has been in sinuated, and not only insinuated, but said directly, the intimation has been given in high places, that if such a usurpation of power had been exercised 200 years ago in a particular reign it would have cost a certain individual his head. What usurpation has Andrew Johnson been guilty of ? (None, none.) The usurpation I have been guilty of has always been standing between the people and the encroachments of power. And because I dared to say in a conversation with a fellow-citizen, and a senator, too, that I thought amendments to the constitution ought not to be so frequent ; that their effect would be that it would lose all its dignity ; th a t th e o i l instrument would be lost sight of in a short ti me ; b ecause Ihappeneci to say that if it was amended such and such amendment s should be aa a it was a usurpatsll-of power that would have cost a king his head at a certain time.

Now thatdid not discomfit me in the least, for when I used to be a tailor I had the reputation of being a good one, and making close fits—(great laughter)—al , ways punctual with my customers and always did good work. (A Voice—No-patchwork.) No, Ido not want any patchwork. 1 want a whole suit. But I will pass by this little facetiousness. My friend may say, you are President, MR. SEWARD'S IMPRESSION OF BRITISH AMERICA. The Hon. William H. Seward, Secretary of State for the United States, made a tour of the British American Pro vinces with a party of friends, a few days ago, and before leaving Canada he wrote the following statement of his impressions :—" Hitherto, in common with most of my countrymen, as I suppose, I have thought Canada, or to speak more accurately, British America, a mere strip lying north of the United States, easily detachable from the parent state, but incapable of sustaining itself, and there fore, ultimately, nay, right so3n, to be taken on by the Federal Union, without materially changing or affecting its own condition or development.
