A BLIND MUSICAL PRoDIeY,CTheIe is a
man giving concerts in Massachusetts, entire
ly blind, graduate Of the Ohio Institute for
the Blind, who has very remarkable musical
powers. Some of the best musicians have
been amazed at his compass of voice and mus
ical attachments. His base notes are lower,
we are told, than those Of any other man in
the world; while he can also sing with perfect
ease the highest tenor notes.. He plays the
cornet beautifully with one hand, and accom-
panies Il with the other on the piano or melo-
deon. Those who have heard him state that he
has musical powers such as have rarely, ifever
given to any other man. He is man of ocul-
ture and education, we'll informed in the poll
tics and history ofsthe country, and has an un-
blemislled moral character. We hope he may
be seen and heard In this region. sael s1i ~

/ Parliament was opened to-day. The Gov
ernor in his speech congratulates the House
upon the general prosperity and contentment
OF the people, and the continuance of peace.
Referring to the soutrages committed upon
the territory of the United States by persons
who sought refuge ON Canadian sol, he says:
'fIn order to prevent the organization Of such
enterprises within the Provinces, and to en- !.
able mesto discharge efeetually my duties to-
wards neighboring and friendly power.
have seen fit to organize system of detective
police on the frontier, and with the same de-
sign have called out for permanent duty, a
portion ofthe yoluntecrforce of the provinces
Similar considerations suggest the propriety of
arming the executive government with strong
'er powers than 1t now possesses for dealing
with persons. who, while availing themselves
of the right of asylum always allowed on
British soil to political refugees, may be TN
mindful OF implied obligations which by resi-
dence amongst us, they contract to obey the
laws, and respect the policy of the country
A bill framed for this purpose will be laid be-
lore the House, and ask its early considera-
Ntion. v 10 4 aeasss as5e sssss - 3 ssss
The Governor congratulates the House on
the zeal shown by the volunteers, and asks
vote OF supplies for necessary expenditures
He informs the house that the financial leeis-
lation Of its last session, has been largely in
creased, and trade extended. In regard to
the confederation he says: Circumstances az
ford an opportunity not only for the settle
ment o. the question of Provincial politics,
Simultaneous creation of new nationality
Parliamentary regulations were opened with
the governors of the other Provinces, and the
result was a meeting at Quebec, composed Of
delegates from all the colonies, and with the
sanction of the sCrown. The conference ar
rived at the conclusion that federal union
was possible and desirable. The plan of the
constitution for the proposed union was en-
bodied in a series of resolutions, which with
othsr papers relating to the subject viii be
laid before the honse. The general plan is
cordially approved by the imperial govern
n ent, and the Imperial sanction viii be given.
The governor further says in commencing
this subject, the Importance of which it Is i'm
possible to exaggerate, it now rests with
you TO decide whether this vast tract of coun-
try he consolidated into state, combining
within its area all the elements of national
gre atness, or whether the several provinces
remain in their present fragmentary and $50
a,ated condition, comparatively powerless for
mutual aid, and incapable of undertakings

The House adjourned until Monday, when
the consideration of the speech win be the
first in order. - q s...1aa Aas saisei. re
