ties continue their preparations. To-day large
quantities OF ammunition were removed from
the Government arsenal ut St. Helen's Island.

Parliament for Montreal Centre. returned from
Ottawa this forenoon. their interview with
tho Premier having proved anything but
satisfactory. As previously stated. their object
was to get control Of the precautions to be taken
for preserving the peace. Tho Premier in.
formed the Mayor very cvilly that he was too
late. the requisitlon OF Aldermen Mercer. Glen

and two others having been answered. Thus
the authority has passed from the hands Of the
Mayor. who will. however. control the city po-
lice. He speaks bitterly OF the six magistrates
who he says. have usurped his authority.
The French Canadians. who hitherto have
paid no attention to the Orangemen. are in
censed that the Government should have ro-
fused Mayor Beaudry's application. aud they
may make common cause with the Ribbonmen.
Complaints are made by the Rbbonmon that
the troops coming into the city are to be i'm
ported from Orange towns. The Ecenin9 Post
