ARRIVAL OF THE (s.s )

PiThe royal mail screw steam ship Indian, Capt.
Jones, which sailed from Quebec On the 15th inst.,
entered the Mersey about two o'clock yesterday
morning, laving an excellent passage of little
more than ten days and a half from port to port.
The Indian brings a large number of passengers
and a full cargo of Canadian produce.
The Quebec papers of the 15th inst. state:—

On the 13th inst., a few minutes isefere 12 O'clock at
night, sown oi.holical wretches made a .clemsv attempt to
destroy the Roman Catholic Chapel, calltd House of Pro.''
vidence, at Toronto, by blowing it up with gunpowder.
In the ream in which is the principal chimney a jar of
gunpowder, capable, it is supposed, of holding some twa
gallons, was exploded ; but the effect, far from being what
the perpetrators of the entr age Mended, was on'y to ertake
a few unimportant cracks in one side of the lewer part of
the chimney, and to knock cff some of the plaver From the
Ceiling—tbirt.-en feet high—and wails. The effect of the
explosion was doulteless lessened by the want of confine-
ment; neither windows nor doors being put in. The
fragments of the jtr were toind in the room.; a-nd the
ceiling near the centre is blackened by the Too der. On
till cast side of the beilning lies a heap of manors, on
wbieh are the T.otrnarks of the miscreant who.committed
the outrage. His dirty boot also scraped the wall under-
neath the wieedow opt of which he jumped. When once
out, be wolid probably eimb the fence of the burial ground
to the east. He mast have gone in at the south end of
the building, as there was a watc'a stationed at the other.
There are no marks of c train left ; and the explosion w-. 5
probably effected by means of a slow match. The r.p-rt
of the explosion was very loud, havi oe been heard by
some prr,ons to as great a distance as Yonge street.
Referring to the much vexed quesAon- of the
seat of government, the Hamilton Spectator

slew—
If His Excellency Sir Edmund Read is to be regarded AI
correct authority on the Seat of G werninent question, the
decision of her Majesty will soon be made known, as the
matter was, according to His Exeelleacy,an have been
considered last month. We have not the most remote
idea as to what locality her Majesty would select, but
doubtless she would be guided solely by tine advice of her
minister=, who appear to have duty colsiderel the claims
of thedelevates from the varim3cities interested Rumour
has it that Quebec is to be the lt cky place,bot as EO man;
reports have been cireulatedlo the effect that the -'• ancient
Capital" was decided on some time since, the rumour is
scarcely worth noticing. We- learn, however, frons a
gentleman recently fro-n England, that it was generalh
believed in London, that Q ,ebec would be selected, with
a view to ,the confederation of tha whole of the British
Arneric in Provine.s. But even on that point there ie
nothing &unite, for although it has been stated that the
presence of Sir Edmund He d and Mr. Atterney-Generai
Macdonald is in-some way connected with the long-talked
of union of the Provinces, it is at best bat mere conjecture.
The idea of selecting Quebec for the permanent location
of the government, with the view of carrying out the
confederation scheme, is in our opinion somewhat prema-
ture. We must wait until the project is broiched by the
Imperial authorities. before we can come to the conclusion
above alludeu to. Quebec has certainly a fair chance of
being selected, if we may teiiGve t'ne representations pat
forth by its friends.
The steamship Central Americo, with two
weeks' later news from California, arrived at New
4Z:fork on Wednesday evening, the 12th inst. The
reports from the mining and agricultural districts
were of the best character. In the Democratic
State Convention, the Broderick party were de-
feated, and John W. Weller was nominated for
Governor. Edward Stanley was nominated by the
Republicana. The official majority in Oregon, for
the new Constitution, was about 6,000.
