Evanturel, and Mr. Brown denounced the conduct
of the Mini!itan„
late Premier, but e()lmionined or filo

double majority- sy6teth, awl saki ttLe country
would do so too.

After some further discussion the house ad-
journed.

Upon the recommendation by th© retiring Mini-
sters of the Hon. Mr. Tache, the Montreal Trans-

cript says :

"That they have made a very unfortunate selectior,
all who know ths man will at once allow. It is high
time the Hon. Mr. Tacbe retired into rrivate life. He
has hail his share of political honours and public patron-
age. He has feathered his nest well, and cm afford to
repose quietly in it without any more considerati,,n
from the country. His influence is less than the least
of the men who have left the Treasury benches ; and
to expect that he will ever be able to form a Ministry,
or if he should, to hold them for a week together, is
simply to expect an impossibility. No Upper Canadian
would take office under him—neither the Liberals nor
Conservatives."

. The Montreal Gazette says:—
" Sir Allan Macnah held on until this (Thursday)
afternoon, when he resigned. The Hon. Mr. Tache
has been sent for, and he, I hear, has called in the
n. J. A. Macdonald. It is also stated confidently
that there will be a re-arrangement of cffices among
the old men."

A despatch from Mr. Labouchere to Governor
Sir Edmund Head, as to the return of troops to
Canada, has been laid before the house. Five
regiments are to be stationed in British North
America, of which three are alloted. to Canada.
The despatch then goes on to say :
" It is not, of Course, to be expected that the force of
the garrisons alluded to should be at all times of an un•
varying strength. It may vary occasionall, from mili-
tary or political reasons. During the war just ended,
when the chief military strength of the empire had to be
concentrated for the operations in the East, regiments
stationed in Canada were withdrawn • and as my pre-
decessor, Sir George Grey, explained, in a despatch
dated 11th August, 1854, increased responsibility was
thrown upon the province. That emergency has now
happily passed away ; but although the regular soldiers
in Canada may be more or fewer at any particular time,
the policy of her Majesty's Government continues the
same, and they desire to place their main dependence
on the well proved loyalty and courage of her Majesty's
Canadian subjects to repel any hostile aggression, should
the eccasion ever unfortunately occur, although in that
event her Majesty's Government would not fail to give
to the province the full support of the whole power of
the British Empire."
Messrs. Forsyth, Bell, and Co., in their timber
circular, dated May 24th, say :
" Within the last few days our spring fleet has been
dropping in, and our market begins.to show some signs
of animation, although the transactions are not yet on
any extended scale. Holders of stock manifest a good
deal of firmness, and our future prices will, in a great
measure, be affected by the tonnage coming out, as well
as the state of the weather for the next two or three
week. Few fresh rafts have yet arrived. Freights
opended pretty well, 375. to 375. 6d. have been paid for
Liverpool and the Clyde, but have gradually declined,
and wo now quote them dull, at 355. for Liverpool, and
365. for the Clyde."

A letter from Giurgevo of the 20th says that
Iske rider Dacha, who has been appointed to the
command of the Turkish cavalry in Roumelia and
of all the Bashi-Bazouks, had arrived there on his
way to Busnia. He is described as very cheerful,
though he has received more than twenty wounds,
and is paralysed in the right arm and the left side.

A letter from Vienna of the 2d says that the
Marquis de Chateaurenard, secretary of the French
Embassy in that city, is to go in the same quality
to Turin, and is to be succeeded in his post by
Count de Mosburg.

A letter from Ba:liu, of the 3d, says :—" The
Grand Duke of Oldenburg left yesterday for Olden-
burg. The Grand Duke of Weimar has also re-
turned home, and the Grand Duke and Grand
Duchess of Mecklenburg Schwerin have left for
Ischl,"

The Madrid journals of the Ist, due this morn
ing, have not arrived in consequence of the inun
lotions.

PARIS AGRICULTURAL EXHIBITION

A dinner was given onTuursday evening at the
Hotel du Louvre by the foreign jurors of the Uni-
versal Cattle Show to the French agriculturists.
About 160 persons sat down to dinner, M. Dupin
occupying the chair. Count Gasparin, who had
been chosen_to preside, was prevented attending by
illness. The banquet was a splendid one, and the
greatest harmony and cordiality prevailed. When
the dinner was ended M. Dupin called on Mr.
Evelyn Denison, who sat on his right hand, to pro-
pose a toast, when that gentleman spoke as fol-
lows :

",Gentlemen,—Your President has charged me with
a duty very honourable to myself, but too weighty for
my feeble hands. Permit me to stop a moment to
blend my sincere regrets with yours for the mis-
fortune which has deprived us of the presence
of Count Gasparin—a man esteemed, honoured, and
beloved by all this company, and whose kindness
towards myself allows me to speak of him as
an affectionate friend. Gentlemen, lam charged to
give you the toast of the Emperor. Not long ago
the question of peace was discussed in the Parliament
of England ; the h,,nour vas accorded to me of
moving the address to the Qoeen in the House of
Commons. I said some words at Westminster. I
venture to repeat them at Paris, without changing a
single s3lialle. I said, France and England have
often had occasion to know each the power of the other.
They have learnt often t 3 respect each other. - This is
the first time that they have learnt to trust each other ;
and great events have resulted from this confidence—
this confidence which is mainly due to the earnest good
faith and the perfect fidelity with which the Em-
peror of the French has fulfilled all his engagements
towards our country. This is the sentiment, of the
House of Commons—this is the sentiment of Eng-
land. I rejoice, too, to mention here the eminent service
rendered by the Emperor to the agrical,ure of all nations
in organising, for two successive years, this interna-
tional agricultural exhibition—a magnificent spectacle,
whi•:hfllis us with admiration, and which reflects new lus-
tre on the first and noblest of industries. It is with the most
profound respect, with the most sincere good wishes for
his happiness and for the happiness of his family, that I
give the toast, ' To the chosen of France, to the faithful
and proved ally of England—the Emperor!"'
