Tie Canadian Excitement The Case Of Nfasoa--
The Chpea, &c. SC.
The following copy of placard, posted all over
the city of Toronto, in Upper Canada, clearly
shows the feeling Of hatred which pervades the
greater part of the upper province, in regard to
His Excellency the Governor General. After
reading 1t, your readers will no doubt smile at
this boastful "war Of words, which the two Pc
htics parties in Canada now engaged in.
Nothing just, nothing vlrruous, can be accom-.
pllshed by men who cendescend to BlllingsQats
each other in the manner they now do throughout
the length and breadth Of the land.

We are oil aware that Elgin hmsef IL mean enough to
do anything; and were IL poaibe that he could re-

him that his conduct was proved Of and that he
was very popular in Upper canada. Think Of that,

Cry OF TORONTO, August 1880.
That the torres of Toronto ia which city they
were numerically the strongest parry, and always
have been, will perform what taey promise in
their proclamation, | have 40 doubt; but very
much doubt whether Lord Eigln will afford them
the opportunity. II the government, before the ac-
count above, entertained amy DOUBTS as to where
to remove the seat OF government, they certai in
ly cannot now. Quebec, with lis unprogresslve
french Canadian population, VIII be the honored
place, and bask In the snnshiae OF political favor.
In Coburg, am told, when they understood the
Governor was en- route, the inhabitants gathered
on the wharves, with barre : Of eggs, determined
to salute him a Ia Montreal la The townships,
am told by gentleman who has just arrived IN
town, the people ale organizing ana arming, and
ready, II the Montreaers wall only kick up re-
srectable row, to come and assist them. Inc
Montreal mobs OF the present day are not TO be
compared, IN as far as regards numbers, to those
OF April last. From this circumstance l am in
clned TO believe that the reports In vogue regard
ing the Immense numbers OF people who have left
this benghted city since the spring, are only too
true. Money and arms are sadly wanted here, as
also an Independent press ana ami these blessings
arrive-ior ut present they can be viewed IN 40
other light-l do not expect anything above
Montreal. A few good heads, and with the
blessings 1 have mentioned, Can ida might
be revoulonized in very short time. The
people, reiormers aud torres, are alikc-both
dissatisfied, and things are dull here, that
really believe they would look upon General Scott,
and the mustangs you talked OF sending us, with
pleasure. Better TO hive ,ar 1T of the land UNI
der the stars and stripes, than starve between the
paws OF the British lion.
Montreal, during the last few days, has been
quiet, and the only topc OF interest mas been ths
C0roner's inquest on Mason; even lnquests must
come 10 an end, however, aud the one in question
has been no exception TO the general rule. Taey
have given their verdi CT, aud here transcribe it,

are further OF opinion thai th. cAi- authorities
highly culpable In not having taken autonary
measures, by which this heavy calamity mish have
been syerted.
The French papers here are all IN a terrible rage
