Tue ladies of Canada came nearly up to
those Of The United States in acts of idol
airy towards the Prince. In a city Of
Canada West, resides a colorcd man,
'"Frauk," who indulges in Embarrassing,
saioou-keeping. and the mysteries Of cook
iug aud general waiting. THIS individual
is amqn Of rare wit, uuboundel humor,
quick at repartee, and fond of a practical
jlke He has, moreover, a certain pi0sui-
tu ie Of system, so that, when be indul ses

may be sad 10 shake like a jelly, after the
fashion of Sau;a Claus, 10 the "Nigdt be-

Now it happened, when the Prince Of
Wales visited the city where Frank resides,
that ball was given in his honor, and
Frank was an essential accessory thereto.
During the evening, after supper, aud
while Frank was among the dishes in the
culinary room, his privacy was intruded
upon by certain young women, who ad-
dressed him ius!uuatiugly, about as fol-
lows:
so, Frank, have you the glass out of
which His Royal Highness drauk?' To
this Frank blandly responded, "Yes."
"WIll you let US drink out of it!' Ger
tairly." "Now, Frank, which side Of the
glass did His Roy II ghness' lips stoucL:'
Frank indicated the identical spot
Then TIE young women, each and all
reverently and jutiiantly touched their
lips to the glass. They then said, care
YOU sure, Frank, that We touched The place
touched by his Royal Hiabness' lips"
To which Frank answered, Certainly, for
Iwan;ed to drink after the Prince, aud |
had my lips on the very spot touched by
hi, just before you GAME in. l know 1t
ia the place"
Fancy the result-Youug ladies ersunt,
digustcd; and the facetiou- Frank relaps-
ing into one Of his most violent cachina-
tions and j.l!ifying for full half hour.

NORTH McGREGoR. June 9th, 1860.
Editors Times Thinking that many
who are interested in the construction of
the Rail Road leading west from this point
would like to learn what the Company are
doing or propose to do. Permit me to state
for their information that Oh the 9Th of the
present month the Stockholders of the Co.
met in Convention at the office Of the Com
pany in North McGregor and proceeded to
the election of a Board of Directors consist
ing of John Thompson, of Clermont;
Jedediah Brown, and George ID. Gardner,
of McGregor; E. d. Clinton, and I. F.
Mack, Of Wisconsin; Lorenzo Bailey, of
Chickasaw and l.. P. Hinkley, of West
Union. After the election the Board held
meeting and elected John Thompson Pre-
sident of the Company, George d. Gard
nor, Treasurer, and L. p. Huxley, Secre-
tary. From the Annual Report it appears
the Company have expended one hundred
and two thousand dollars and that they
have on hand in Real Estate and subscrip-
tons to the capital stock about two hun
red and seventy-fvc thousand dollars which
may be considered reliable.
From communications laid before the
Board it appears that there are two Eastern
Railroad Companies who now desire to
make an arrangement with this Company,
whereby they may secure connection with
this Road when constructed, and that to
accomplish this result, either Company are
willing to assist us in building our Road.
For the purpose Of coming to more def
nate understanding with one of those Com
panies the President appointed a commit.
tee to confer with them and report to this
Company at an adjourned meeting of the
Board. 1t is now confidently anticipated
that such arrangements will be made as will
enable this Company to resume work on
this line at an early day.
Very, respectfully, yours, JED. BROWN
