Wing The election in this city Qt says) has
resulted in most magnificent whig triumph.
II was closely contested by the locofocos in every
ward, but the Old Guard met them point 10
point, and vanquished them in their strong holds.
Every ward in the city has given the wing ticket
decided majorities. The wing majority on She
riff is nearly 500 The majority Of George B.
Warren, the wing candidate for Assembly is $50
over Thomas Symonds, the locofoco candidate.

In the House Of Assembly an address to the
Queen was adopted by vote Of 81 to 81, con-
corning the proposition made by her Majesty to
remove the seat Of Government to Montreal
When the address came before the Council for
their concurrence, a long and angry debate arose,
the opponents of the bill contending that the bill
could not again come before the Council during
the present session, without violating all paria-
mentary rules and setting dangerous precedent,
it having once been finally disposed Of, it was
thought, for the session. and could not be brought
before the Council without it was prorogued for
few days.
The measure was insisted upon, and the further
discussion made the special order of the day for
the 9th, when the Hon. Mr.. Morris rose and
said that in view Of these strange proceedings,
it became his duty to record his protest, and re-
tire from all further participation in the proceed
ings Of the Council. He then bowed to the
speaker of the House, and retired, followed by
Messrs. De Blaquiere, Ferguson, Cooks, Wash
burn, Sherwood, Moray, Dickson, Hamilton
Macanbery, Draper, Mcdonald, and A. Fraser
Soon after they retired, the Council adjourned.
