comments:

authorship has been attributed, but for whose

Judge Black is incapable of such sentences as

CANADA WILL NOT SuPPoRr THRONE
Speaking of the expected visit of the Prince
of Wales to Canada, the Toronto Leader sig
niicant!y remarks:
"IIis Royal uighness will receive all the
respect due to an heir to the English throne
and the son Of constitutional Sovereign
whose reign has been marked by a series OF
practical reforms. On his part. he visits this
country with the full knowledge that, from
its position. it never can support a throne for
any of her numerous family; and that this
loyal people will one day it may he far dis
tant t-march quietly to national indepen-
detce. But even when that day comes, it
will be a real satisfaction and just pride to
England that she has given her masculine
language, her just laws and her free princi-
piles to second nation in the new world
Aud in that feeling of pride and satisfaction
it will not be beneath constitutional sover-

CowHIDING RroHLY MERIrED.-On Tuesday
a shameless fellow undressed himself on the
beach Immediately in front Of the house be-
tween Meggs' and Martins wharves, for the
purpose of bathing. The exposure of his
person attracted the attention of "a gentleman
living near by, who finding that neither ex-
postulations nor threats would avail to bring
him TO a sense of the indecency, procured a
cowhide, and used it with such effect upon
the fellow, that he was not long in picking
up his duds and clearing the premises. A
