he private advices from the United States and Canada are
:nn_t_, of very great interest. We find that in Canada the pros-
-7: of the formation of a new Cabinet by Sir Charles Met-
:4: -t was expected soon to be accomplished, as the more re-
stable portion of the inhabitants were ready to support him
:4 the adnthaistration of his Government. And indeed most
hu "e gentry, merchants, and others, in Kingston, had addressed
ittEhaceriency, approving of his Government.
e reply Sir C. Metcalfe said, " I prize those sentiments
te. los, •
,aity to our gracious Sovereign, and attachment to the
wat'
- -wee country, which you evince, and which form the only
.131'•re basis on which the welfare of this colony, as an integral
'Pevtion of the British Empire, can be firmly established. On
h feelings, I place my reliance for success in my resolution
all% devote myself to the service of this province, and in my
-endeavours to promote the prosperity and happiness of every
• class of its inhabitants."
The season has set in, the thermometer being down to Zero.
- There had been some good sleighing.
The session of the Colonial Legislature had been abruptly
terminated, and we learn that the Governor-General had
' ahown something like temper in the proceeding.
The United States advices do not possess any importance,
and it is not necessary to refer to them here, as in another co-
hunn of The Sun further details r.re given.
An improvement has taken place in the public securities this
Morning. Consols for Money opened at 964, and they are
n" at 97, rather buyers;. The purchases of the Com-
missioners to-day, amounted to 20,000/. Consols at
97, principally, we hear, for the Savings' Banks. If anYinvestment were made 'for the redemption of debt, it was
not announced. Money has become rather more in request,
mid a few sales of Exchequer Bills have taken place, but the
eel:ilium has not been reduced below 655. India Bonds touched
7. early in the day, but they are now 795. premium. In the
has Stocks buts light variations have occurred. Bank Stock
as advanced to 167 i, and India Stock to 273.
For Pertipluese Converted Stock a considerable demand has
Ps,evailed th:a morning, and an improvement has taken place
f.srcun 441 to 4.5 i. We have not heard of any news of im-
portance from Lisbon, to account for this rise. Spanish Stock
remains ve•cy nearly the same as on Saturday, the Five per
,Cents. at. 22i to %, and the Three per Cents. at 31 and 31k.
Dutch S lock is firm. Venezuelan Two per Cent. Bonds have
been sold at 36*; Mexican at 321 and ; Colombian, ex

In the Rail way Share Market we have to notice an improve-
ment in the C4eat Western to 33 premium ; in the London and
Birmingham

,_„nethern anti Eastern have, as well as several other shares,
71,1:4 back a little. The Colonial Bank Shares have receded
