Of Canada West and member fer the Third Rid
ing OF York mas been appointed Chancellor and

Chancellor.
The Governor General made his grand entire
into Toronto yesterday, in peace and quiet He
was holding eree when the telegraphic dispatch
vas sent off. This has disappointed the Montreal
rioters very much, as they have always said that
Ia Toronto the people were as bad as themselves,
and that taking the seat Of Government there
would be out Of the frying pan into the fire. The
sest Of Gov rnment question depends on the feel
logs OF his Ezceleucy, y ho Is, OF course, anxious
70 get away from Montreal, where he has been so
III treated, AID with whose citizens no can no
longer associate. But there arc ressons against
moving IL. There are some Of the warmest sup
porters of the Government in Lower Canada who
live IN Montreal, who would be absolutely unable
TO 90 to Toronto TO attend Parliament. They
would be- obliged to resign, and this would be ex-
pensive and troublesome, aud perhaps there
would bo danger that opponents Of the Govern
meat would take their places. Tho annexation
inoveme mt 10 also much stronger In Montreal than
elsewhere, and the presence Of tho Government
would have a tendency to check ii thsre.
AprOpos of the Annexation movement; It ap-
oe.rs that all Association hes been formed 10 give
light 10 the people this subject. They intend
to give a reward of $500 or $500 for the best es
say on the advantages Of IL; - publish II At a
penny piece, aud 20 send lecturers through the
county 10 instruct the people on the subject
they ssy that they don't intend aDy physical force
Or di,turbsnce Ia the movement; all 10 70 be
peaceabe aud quiet all which may be very well
in theory, bot they will be obliged to alter II when
they como 70 practice. The movement is very
strong iust now 4 great many OF our leading Tory
merchants have signed it. 4 very singular change
Ia them; two wears 40, when times were fOJdi
who 10 eager Ia shouting their loyalty as these
very men Now that times have been bad they
arc Rcvolutionists. What they VIII be when
times improve, which is going on fast, there is no
saying These are not the men to carry Anacxa-
ton.
Messrs. Bald vim, Laiontaine aud Tache lett
Yesterday for Toronto. where they will form G
Cabinet with Messrs. Hincks and Merritt.
There was little row in London, Upper Can
ada, when tho Governor was there. The Mayor
is violent Tory, and actually excited the people
10 violence by his conduct. When the Governor
" as on his rosd 70 town the Tories cut down tue
arches erected, and attacked the Post Office. MI
Goodhue, the Postmaster, being obnoxious, be-
cause he had made preparations for grand din'
ncr to the Governor They beat the Po,tnaster
and his clerks W ito clubs, and overturned the let
ter-hoxer &c. The Mayor upon this sent OIL an
express, warning the Governor not to come, bot
ord lgin continued his course. About 5000
people assembled from all parts to meet him, and
the procession was three miles long. He ad-
dressed the people from the balcony OF the hotel,
and there were disturbances among the crowd.
A pistol-shot SHOT was fred by a Tory, and
Young man wounded in the cheek, but the assail-
ants were promptly driven off
