LATER FROM CANADA-The British Government
has refused its consent to change the Legislative
capital of Canada from Kingston to Toronto and
Quebec, four years alternately, as had been re-
quested. The great expenses caused this refusal.

Nov, 1S4l, was laid before the Provincial Parlia-
ment on the 18th inst.
1t is generally supposed that general amnesty
will be authorized by the Canadian government to-
wards all those who were banished during the re-
bellion with the exception of old Papineau
