Council had met, and the Mayor had written and
sent his letter of apology to-the Duke, an apology
which admitted the deceit practised, which, in fact,
stated that it was the first time his worship had
ever been guilty of such an act, and which pre-
mised, if this offence was overlooked, that he would
never be guilty of it again. It was as follows:
" Mayor's -office, Toronto, Sept. 8.
"My Lord Duke, —Advertingto the interview which your
Grace did me the honour of holding with me last evening
on the subject of the transparency of King William 111. on
the Orangemen's Arch, in this city, and the letter whiCh I
had the honour of addressing to his Excellency the Governor
General, stating that such a decoration was not to have been
placed there, I am now desirous of acknowledging to your
Grace that I ought most undoubtedly to have stated the
change wh:ch was subsequently proposed to be made, and
which was afterwards in fact made. And although the
Roman Catholics were quite willing to acquiesce, and did
acquiesce, in the alteration, it was nevertheless only due to
your Grace and to his Excellency that such a deviation
from the understood arrangement should have bsenpromptly
transmitted ; and looking back to what I have done from
the present view of matters, it may appear that it was pre-
sumptuous on my part to judge whether your Grace or his
Excellency would or would not have esteemed this deviation
as of that consequence which it has now assumed.
" There has been much difficulty in arranging satisfac-
torily the late threatening and serious state of affairs here,
and I trust I have not been wanting in my efforts to bring
about this pleasing result. It is painful to me therefore to
feel that I have even unintentionally failed in discharging
my duty in this particular, but it is infinitely more painful
to me to think that your Grace should think that I have
omitted to communicate this information from an unworthy
motive, or for the purpose of compromising his Royal High-
ness the Prince of Wales, your Grace, or his Excellency
tho Governor-General, or even for the sake of complaisance
towards any portion of my fellow-citizens.
" I can safely appeal to any one who knows me, and who
I am sure will satisfy your Grace that I would not, unless
I were to depart from the whole tenour of my life, act in the
manner to which your Grace alluded last evening; but I
admit again that much does appear in what has occurred to
have induced your Grace to form the strong opinion which
your Grace gave expression to on the occasion in question.
" I hare now only to implore your Grace that, whatever
omission or offence I may be chargeable with, it may not be
visited in any manner upon this most loyal city, for as to
wards your Grace and his Excellency I am alone to blame.
—I have the honour to be, my Lord Duke, your Grace's
most obedient, humble servant,

" ADAM WILSON, Mayor.
" His Grace the Duke of Newcastle,. Secretary
for the Colonies, &c."

In this reply of course nothing was said as to the
object the arch was intended to represent, and as
no manner of good could then be done by stating
it, it was much better kept in the background.
Not many, indeed, would have known of it but for
the vapouring of the Orangemen, who went about
declaring that they had rather the Prince passed
under that than any other form of Orange arch
they could devise. The blusterers, however, as has
been the case all through, were the mere dregs of
the party—noisy, violent Irishmen, on whom all
the leaders looked down with distrust and annoy-
ance. To the almost abject apology of the Mayor
the Duke of Newcastle replied in the following
letter, which terminated the correspondence :

" Government-house, Toronto, Sept. 8.
" Sir,--I am so sincerely anxious that all the painful
events of the last few days should be at once and for ever
buried in oblivion, ancl nothing remembered but the heart-
stirring scene which last night proclaimed to the world the
unanimous and enthusiastic loyalty of the city of Toronto,
that it is a real relief to my mind to feel that I can, with-
out any sacrifice of duty to the Prince of Wales, accept the
apology which is offered by your letter just received. In
this spirit I will not continue a discussion which must have
been so painful to you, and has certainly been no less so
to me, but I must point out to you that it was your letters
which really gave an obnoxious character to the trans-
parency of William 111. Nobody can object to a represen-
tation (in itself) of one of the stoat illustrious of our kings,
but when you informed me that the transparency was to be
removed by the Orangemen as an acknowledged party
symbol, it at once assumed the objectionable feature of the
display which I had advised the Prince not to countenance,
and its restoration made it impossible for the Prince to pass
under the arch without violating the terms of my letter to
the Governor-General. I can only hope that from this
morneut au that,. uneus may as completely vanish from the
,minds
of others as they will from that of,
" Sir, yours very obediently,
" NEWCASTLE.
" The Worshipful the Mayor of Toronto."

This closed the correspondence on the subject be-
tween his Worship and the Duke, and it was inti-
mated to the Mayor and members of the Council
that, the matter being forgiven and forgotten, they
would all have the honour of being presented to his
Royal Highness before the visit to Toronto termi-
nated.

On the evening of the Bth, after the banquet at
the Government-house, his Royal Highness held a
grand reception at Osgoode Hall. This hall, which,
like all the other public buildings at Toronto, is a
really magnificent structure, is at once both the
Middle Temple and Westminster Hall of Upper
Canada. The external features of the architecture
much resemble, on a smaller scale, the noble entrance
to the British Museum, while the entrance hall
inside is built with a double row of Gothic columns,
and a corridor round it, after the plan of the hall
of Bridgewater-house. All the interior, however,
is of massive cut stone, with inlaid tesselated pave-
ment of the most exquisite designs. The mode of
lighting is from behind coloured glass screens in
the ceiling of each chamber, and the effect of the
soft rich light which is thus diffused over the whole
is exceedingly chaste and beautiful. In different
parts of the building the various courts of law are
situated, all loftier, more commodious, and better
ventilated than those of Westminster Hall. One
side of the hall is entirely occupied by a splendid
library, and in this, as the largest apartment, a
raised dais was placed for the Prince. His Royal
Highness arrived at the building at 9 o'clock, and
was received by the visitors who had been invited
to meet him at the hall with a great outburst of
enthusiasm. - Mr. Cameron, the Treasurer of the
Law Society, with all the judges and members of
the Canadian bar, met his Highness in the lower
hall, and presented him with a long and eloquent
address, to which the Prince replied as follows :
,4 Gentlemen,—l have accepted your invitation to this
hall with very great pleasure, and must thank you warmly
for the address just presented to me. The purity of the
bench and the independence of the bar are the proud cha-
racteristics of the legal profession in England, and I rejoice
to think that this province, equally with the mother country,
enjoys those great securities for liberty and order. I hope
that this hall may in future generations continue to have
enrolled in its list of members men as illustrious as those
whose names are loved and venerated in the United King-
dom."

This address and walking through the courts
formed the only ceremonial part of the business,
and dancing was at once commenced in the library
with some eight or ten sets of quadrilles.
The Kingston Orangemen now state as an excuse
that they never would have made any demonstration
at all but for certain offensive resolutions which
were passed at a meeting of the Roman Catholics,
held in Regiopolis College at Kingston.

Mr. Lindsay is no doubt sent out here to confer with Lord
Lyons, precisely as Mr. Cobden was despatched to Paris to
confer with Lord Cowley upon the recent Treaty of Corn-
