Oh FRANCIS hEAD.-Luuy k1cdo sNu iesAy 80
we'd in town yesterday On their way 70 England oy
the next London packet, and are now at the A'ne,
neum Hotel. Sir Francis remains at TORONTO unui
Sir George Arthurs arrival, into whose hands ne VIII
resign his government.
There is some talk among the British residents OF
this city of getting up dinner to Sir Francis wnen ne
passes through New York on his way home. TINS
dinner is to partake of public character, win inc
usual accompaniment of toasts, speeches., &C. 10
this think there are very serious oDJechsns. In
the first place this is not the LOCALITY ior such de-
mon stration what would do very well IN toronto
or London, is not exactly suitable to this meridian
In the next place, there is difference OF OPINION
among the English here themselves; and although
Sir Francis is personally respected still his measures
do not meet with the appreciation OF all. we believe,
moreover, that more courteous department towards
Governor Marcy might have been assumed without
any deroga,ion of the Lieutenant Governors dgniiy
and that the wholesale disparagement of our fellow
citizens in the functionarys speech 10 the Upper Ca
NADIA Parliament would have added to It's character
for prudence. .N
On the whole, We do not think public dinner at
all advisable; and private entertainments will be
much better in every view.
DECLINE OF THE PENNy AND SIxpESNy PREss.-
There can be no doubt of the decline and fall of
the penny and sixpenny press. In month or SIX
weeks three or four two cent papers, conducted on
the cash principle of business, and the philosophical
principle of intellect are start This new and fresh
revolution in the press will make new and surpris-
ing movement.
From Correspondent Brougham.-No. Kill
Albany, Februaryl3, 1888.
The House is now in session. O'Clock, p. nj. up
on the nti-sub-reasury resolutions. Mr.. Helley
moved to amend his resolutions so as to strike out
his fears that they would be defeated by the Senate.
So Mr. Wright will be sure to get them. Whether he
will obey them is another question.
The radicals, in their speeches, are earnest in their
proclamation of the doctrine that the money of the
country belongs, of right 10 the President. Their
speeches, if rendered into pure English are OF the
highest msnarchical caste. On the other hand the
wings are urgent in their demonstrations that the
whole scheme is liberty subverting
Mr.. Barnard was very happy In proving that the
ub-reasury plan is only part Of the doctrines con-
tanned in General JacksoR's protest. The question

| Nothing has been done upon the small note ques-
/ ton.
A bill was reported today authorizing the issue Of
stock the part of the state in aid of the Erie Rail
way to the amount of three millions and in aid of
