A coalition cabinet would seem to be the highest
aim of Canadian craftsmanship, for rumors are
each day circulated, fashioning ministry in ac-
cordance with the aspirations of one party or the
other. The latest tale told presumss combina-
tion of the "clesr grits' and Hincksites-in other
words, the high tory party are no longer in favor
with the French Canadians. 1t is true that each
section in their respective portions Of the Province
has an established church to defend. There is,
moreover closer affinity between the two classes
upon religious, social, and political points; yet
rumor will have it that treaty has been ratified
between the Z" clear grits" and :" Hncks." This
fact if accept it such pre-supposes surrender
by the " clear grits' of their Americanized notions
Of elective institutions and republican economy; or
else MIR. Hincks must have recanted, and, forswear-
ing his contempt and aversion for American nsti-
tutions, he must have adopted the maxim of the
60 ahead "clear grits." The probabilities incline
the spectator to doubt the veracity of rumor sur
rounded by such palpable contradictions; ne YER
the acts of any one of our paid public men who are
in the political arena. The corrupting influences
of an abortve revolution leave traces that require
generation to eface and there has been but little
Province since that epoch to check chastise the
venality and political prohigacy now become q
normal condition OF our society. One OK the lew
men who have kept their hands clean, is Mr.
Papineau, and he has the double merit OF likewise
adherng to his principles; yet his name has not yet
been introduced into any OF the proposed combi-
nations-a fair presumption that honesty IS not an
essential condition Of colonial statesmanship.
The House of Assembly will soon be prorogued
and as the present House expires by limitation, be-
fore another meeting of Parliament can take place
the Governor will call the next House together at
Quebec. He can do 80 in the body of the writ of
summons The great activity displayed in Quebec,
in pressing forward the alterations and improve
ments required for the service Of the government,
induces the belief that the removal will be early
affair. Several of the underlngs, such clerks,
secretaries, and that genus, have secured houses,
and enter upon possession in September.
The musical world were justly charmed .'ith
Parodi, who grasifed the citizens by giving two
concerts. The want Of a theatre is keenly felt
when star of ParOdi's order appears. An indi-
vidual, named J. Joseph. o commission merchant,
purposes erecting one, but meantime the audiences
suffer. There is a small room, called the ST. Law
renee Hall, in the upper nat OF l. hotel, ana Ia a
title of his "bandbox." The coming advent of
Jenny Lind compels the people to inquire where
they can hear her. That she will come, AMI that
the tickets will oe sold at four dollars each, are
two facts currently believed Sir w. Don is CIV
ing few representations here, before he reln-
quishes the profession as it seems that the patron
age he enjoyed in the United States enabled him
to remit $4,000 sterling to pay off some debts,
and that act being accompli she'd, he withdraws
from the stage. He leaves this for Wisconsin, on
O hunting excursion. The party set off almost
Immediately, and do not return until the middle
of September. He then embarks for England.
There is a company now engaged working the
gold mine, formerly the property of MIR. Dele-y
The locality is on the upper waters Of the river
Chandiere. The whole region, extending some
distance into Maine, is pronounced by Mr.. Logan,
our geologst, to be auriferous. and exploring par
ties are out searching the streams of the modern
Pactolus. We have an unlimited quantity Of
rain, and the weather cold. The thermometer in
dicated 81 deg. Fahrenheit, on two successive
mornings. Hotels full of Americans. b.
