Dominion Resumed.
A Hearty Reception in the Principal Cities and
Towns Of New Brunswick.
Painful Accidents and Pleasing In
cidents of the Journey.


81. JOHN, n. B., Sept. 7. 1850.
The chase and hunt are over, and Prince Arthur
has resumed mis- tour through the New Dominion.
He may have enjoyed the brief period which he oc-
cupied in search Of game, on account OF the tempo
rary relief whcn Afforded him from the daily gaze
and lionzing of admiring mutitudes; but purely
hunting excursion his trip was failure For four
days he whiled away the time in the Wild woods Of
Nova Scotia In vain search for moose, but this
noble beast Of the forest had probably through AMI
mai instinct, been advised of the contemplated
royal war upon his species, and acting upon the
double safeguard Of presence Of mind and absence
OF body the whole moose tribe intrenched and con-
cesled itself beyond the range Of prncely guns
The most experienced Indian hunters and guides
did their best to scare up from the thickets single
animal but all their efforts and skill In vain
and the onlv game wor ny Of sportsman which re.
warded young Arthur's hunt were few partrldges,
plover and other smaller fowls. The time however.
was spent pleasantly by the whole party. and what
was lost in game fully atoned for In the lesurey
jaunt through the wild forest.
There was, OF course an absence OF those hard
ships peculiar to the hunters life. for none Of the
royal party were dependant upon the resources Of
the country for the necessary food and drink pre-
human life, nor did they and 1t necessary to
rest their weary limbs at nightfan with only the
canopy OF heaven for o shelter. Their experience
far different from this that 1t is safe to let
the fact pass into history that all the choice uxuries
OF the season. in the shape OF catables and drink
abes. were among the chief features to be remem
bered OF the trip and eacn days journey, singu.
larry enough, happened 70 be so arranged
that with the approach Of night Q comfortable and
hosptable shelter for the sovereign youth had been
reached. will repeat therefore. that hunt the
whole affair was q failure; but as pleasant, quict
and romantic recreation it was every thing that could
be desired, and Prince Arthur has so expressed him.

nience occasioned by the constant acknowledgements
which courtesy If not his own feelings requires him
TO render. From the very moment he emerged from
the Nova Scotian wilderness yesterday morning up
to his arrival in this city at to-day there has
been one constant ovation. each demonstration
seeming to rival It's predecessor In enthusiasm and
kindly feeling.
For instance when he arrived at Shediac, hun.
dred miles or more from here, yesterday morning,
nearly the entire population oil that pleasant seaport
town had turned out TO receive and do him

merous as the people, and every combination Of
