Speehl Dispatch TO Tie N. Y. Tribune.

opened again IN a remarkable manner Inc Guy
is filed with extraordinary rumors Ofpast troubles
and impending disorders, most of which, when
sifted, prove wholly unfounded.
The exact order Of events, az narrated by the
highest authorities on each side, is as follows:
Before the arrival of the Royal party, the Duke of
Newcastle had been assured by the Mayor of To-
ronto that no arch with Orange decorations would
be met by the Prince of Wales.
This assurance was the result of a conference
between the Mayor ard the Grand Master Of the
order, il which the latter had agreed to set aside
the proposed portrait of King William crossing the
BoyDe, ss well as an Objectionable inscription,
which were the Ouly two doubtful features of the
arch. Bnt at the last momeot the Mayor dis
covered that the portrait Of King William was to
be retained, and dispatched verbal message TO the
Duke to inform him of the change. This mes
sage was never delivered.
The Duke, believing that all obstacles were re-
moved authorized the landing and passed 10 pro-
cessiOn with the Prince through the city. AZ they
drew near the Orange arch the Prince caught
sight of the portrait of William, and indicated it
to the Duke, who was riding backward, and there
fore failed to promptly detect it.
Hadthe Duke been warned before the carriage
was well under the arch he would have checked
bis course, and taken another road, but it was too
late. On Friday evening the Duke sent for the
Mayor, and repToached him in bitter terms for the
supposed deceit, and demanding at the same time
full explanations and apologies. The next morn
ing having received no response, he dispatched at
II o'clock, the following letter:
GovFRSnEST HOUSE, Toronto, Sept 8, 1850.
SIR deeply regret thai you have not Thought bt to
send any explanation Of The occurrence OF which |
made complaint 10 you las, evening. would not will
loply revert 10 sny cause Of ofenae after the most
magnificent and sFuhearted reception which the
Prince Of Wales NIT in the city yesterday but there
arc matters which cannot be overlooked without loss
Of honor aud position.
You distinctly informed me that the transparency OF
William III. was removed ana one of the Prince OF
Wales substituted. ! relied upon your word, and the
CONSEQUENCE was that the Prince was thereby led INTO
doing what had distinctly informed you he would
not do.
