and asked me OH my honor 1t had any
thing but wearing apparel with nie--if it
haf not been for this, never SHOULD have
known that had got north of the llnes.--
As it regards liberty, where is civil liberty
enjoyed in higher degree than in this or in
that other British country the other side Of
the Atlantic? There is one difference
though, that is not so very great an one, as
might at first sight appear. You, all ofyou,
bow down to one Sovereign Lady collect
ively. We bow down to one Sovereign
Lady, each for himself. That is the only
difference, and fear we cannot all say as
you can of your lady, that our Sovereign
lady is as a wife and mother, an ornament
and honor to her sex, the first in virtue as
the first in place. However, there has al
ways been a strong desire for annexation
among that part of our people whom rep
resent--,he people of New England. be-
Ieve it was about l6O years ago that the in
habitants of Massachusetts were very de-
sirous of annexins Montreal, and for that
purpose fitted out an armament of forty
ships, just at this season of the year. be-
lieve, Mr., Mayor, they were received by
one of your ancestors, the gallant Count
Frontenac, with as much warmth, but in a
very different manner fromth in which we
have been received to night; and they went
home convinced thar forcbIe annexation, so
long as the spirit of Frenchmen or English
men remained as it was, could not be very
easily brought about. But The Yankees are
a tenacious people, and if they canuOt an
mex one way, they will in another. For the
last year have devoted myself TO the an
nexation of Montreal and Boston, and with
in ten months, if you invite me to dinner,
will leave Boston al O'Clock, and will be
here to dinner-MoDtreal and Boston will
be within nine hours of each other. Do
you think, now, that having sent 1900 men
at one time to get dinner with you, that we
| shalt ever quarrel again' No, The salt, tha.
sacred pledge, once partaken of, secures
every thing for the future. 1t is said that
the Yankees are a peculiar people, and it
was remarked after that unfortunate affair
of Sir w. Phpps, that they burnt up all the
old and ugly women and left none bat the
good locking. However this may he, |
have no fear but that, if we can only get
some of the gentry of Montreal into our
neighborhood, they will find something to
bewitch them. Mr. Quincy concIueed 10y
returning thanks and expressing his opin-
ion that when Canadians and Yankees
kaew each other more, they would like each
other better.

CONCORD, N. II. April II, 1850

the day.
have at all times seen with keen regrets
the slavery agitations in the Halls of Con-
gress, marring and mutilatug, as they have
much of the legitimate and proper action of
that body. With the power of prophecy,
the prescience Of Washington fastened in
letters of adamant a rebuke on the spirit Of
disunion, which time can never obliterate.
With this early impression fixed on my
mind, ] hardly need say that have been
gratified beyond measure with the course.
taken by the great statesmen of the Senate
thus far in the present session.
In relation to your senior in that body,
(Mr. Clay) during the days was at Wash
inglon, | was struck with admiration at the
temper which would not he provoked into
a controversy when taunts were thrown as
to the maintenance of favOritc theories and
opinions.
The death Of Mr.. Calhoun has proved
that a great man may be wrong in many
things, and yet pass off as on sea of glory
was in the Senate Chamber on the ex-
citing occasion of the reading Of the last ef
fort of that truly great, but as have be-
lieved, long mistaken and now deeply la
mented man. My old resentments in oppo-
sition to nullification were revived, and so
expressed in the progress Of that hearing,
and should, on the impulse of the moment,
have answered him in a different temper,
from that which you displayed in your great
speech afterwards. On reading the first inn
perfect report of it, saw at once how much
better to the dying, nervous man, was your
kindly answer, than might have been my
own.
During the four weeks which passed at
Washington last winter, | will confess to
you, that at first my concern on account of
an anticipated alienation and disruption of
our glorious Union threw all party differ
ences into the back ground--it exceeded if
possible the anxiety felt, when there SEEM
ed to be no possible chance of escaping
conflict of blood between one Of The noble
old thirteen, and the confederation Of which
she was a part, some seventeen years pro-
vious. In the progress of these four weeks
! / was pleased TO perceive new evidences of
an attachment to the Union; no less on the
part of nearly every man coming from a
slave-holding State, than on the part of
those coming from States claiming to be
| free. -,
| came to the conclusion that not a man
| in thousand wished a disruption. and 1
lost no opportunity in thus assuring my most
! alarmed friends. ea

Fair and Festivities at Montreal.

The Montreal Herald OF the 18Th instant
contains an account of The recent industrial
exhibition opened in that city on Thurs
day last. A large number of products
of industry and skill were collected in Bon
secours Market Hall, which was tastefully
decorated for theoccasion. The exhibition
is said to have been highly cre,litable to the
ingenuity and enterprise of the mechanics
aud artizans of Canada.
During the day there was Regatta up
on the river, which attracted large crowd
of spectators. There were five races, all
we'll contested. The highest purse run for
was EOS.
In the evening dinner was given by the
City Corporation at the Masonic Hail.
Many strangers of distinction were present,
among whom were Hon. Josiah Quincy,
Jr., Of this city; Mr. Bradbury, State
Treasurer; and Mr.. Lord, the historical
lecturer. The entertainment was enlivened
by the airs played by the band Of the goth
regiment. After the customary toasts on
such occasions, the Mayor gave "Ihe
President and People ofthe United States;"
to which Mr.. Quincy responded as follows:
"It is" said Mr.. Quincy, "wth feeling

public occasion of this nature, to answer, in
behalf of the President aud people of the
United States, and thank you for the com
pliment and honor you have conferred up
on them. II is no common qualification
with which ] regard these two great ma
tions, the parent and the child, growing to-
gether, advancing and increasing; the par
ent losing none of its vigOr, while the child
is daily increasing. There is something
sublime in the thought, and if, as we are in
formed by the wise man, the glory of the
father is the children's, aud the glory of the
children the fathers, what may not the flu
ture generations Of these two great nations
anticipate when the destiny before them is
fully developed! There, perhaps, never
was a greater cause of congratulation than
the reflection that the causes Of difference
between us are now entirely past. There
was once time when high sense of hon.
or, in the notions of military spirit, might
have insisted that stubborn line OF demar-
cation should lie drawn in this neigbborhood
or on the Pacific. Such a quarrel would
formerly have deluged the continent in
blood. Now il is settled by arbitration.-
Truly, the lines have fallen to US in pleasant
places, and we both have goodly heritage.

WAsHrNGroN, April 30, 1850.
Hon. Isaac HM:-Dear Sr:-I regard
such letter from you as that OF the l7'h oi
this month, as an extraordinary aud graft
fying incident in my life. For u long course
of years we have belonged to opposing par
ties, espouscd opposite measures; and sup
ported for high office men Of very different
political opinions We have not, however,
taken different views Of duty IN respect 10
the maintenance Of the constitution OF the u.
States. From your voice or your pen, any
more than from mine, there never has pro-
ceeded sentiment hostile to ''that unity OF
government which constitutes us one peo-
ple." .s
| And now, when we are 10 louger young,
a state Of things has arisen seriously inter-
rupting the harmony and mutual good VIII
which have hitherto existed between differ
ent parts Of the country, exciting violent To-
cal animositIes, impeding the regular and
ordnay progress Of the government, and
fraught with niischefs OF every description.
And al!th has its origin in certain branch
es of the slavery question, which, rs II ai'-
pears to me, are either quite unimportan;
in themselves, or clearly settled and deter
mined by the constitution. All ihiS have
seen with that keen regret which you have
experienced yourself, and which cannot hut
be a common feeling with all rejecting
men, who are lovers of their county. 10
this unhappy state of the public mInd,
have felt it sny daty to address myself, not
in language of irritation, crIninaton, or
menace, but in words of peace, patriotic
sympathy, aud fraternal regard. My effort
has been, and will be, To the full extent OF
