Lord Stanley asked what steps the GO- vernment had taken to prevent the violat- ion of neutrality, in case of regiments of volunteers who had offered their services tO the United States. Five cases, containing 100 rifles, direct- ed to the Commercial Bank, New York, and intended for the steamer Adriatic, were stopped at Galway by the agent Of the line refusing to let them pass. LOrd John Russell said the Governâ€" ment‘ltatl no information of Canadaian vol- unteers having tendered their services to the United States, and of course could not say'wliat action would be taken. Lord John Russell in his letter to the Lords of the Admiralty, directed them not to permit privateers to take priZes into British ports, and says it is done to secure the strictest neutrality. h1r._,Siddell is to ask Ministers if this variance with former practice is a reason for a change of maritime policy.

The Paris correspondent of the London Hamid argues that Italian independence will be buried in Cavour’s grave, and that - the Peninsula will become a mere depend- e'ncy of France. Count Cavour died at seven o’clock on the morning of the 6th instant, which ll.lS caused profound sensation. The evening preceding his death his state had become so alarming, that great emotion was evinced by the people of Turin, and innuense crowds surrounded his re sidence. Signor Minghelti has been intrnsted crl interim. with the portfolio offoreign afâ€" fans, with Gen. Fanti as provisional ad- ministrator of marine. It is runoured that Garibaldi contem- plates a visit to America in a month or two, if war in Italy appears unlikely. TURIN, June 6.-~At the re-opening of the Chamber of Deputies today, the President announced the death of Count Cavour, amid expressions of profound grief on the part of the assembly. The Cham- ber suspended sitting for three days. The President saidzâ€"VVe are deeply afflicted by the misfortune that has deprived us of the wisdom of so illustrious a statesman. \Ve must not, however, allow ourselves to be. discouraged, nor quit the paths We have hitherto followed.

The tribune of Chamber of Deputies will be draped with black for twenty days. The Senate has taken the same re- solution.

In a few days our friends will be cal- led upon to exercise their franchise in selecting competent persons to represent them in Parliament, for the next four years. Now is the time for the supporters of good go- vernment and British supremacy, to put forth their utmost endeavors to secure the return of those who will faithfully carry out their views on the great political questions of the day. There has, perhaps, never been a period in in our history when greater anxiety might justly be felt, and when more energy and exer- tion was necessary to secure ,the return of good and true men, than at the present time. Let not a single friend of the good cause hesitate to come boldly forward and exercise his rights as an elector, and dis- charge his duty as a citizen. Let us not be any longer misrepresented by the blind supporters of an un- scrupulous party, as has unfortun- ately been the case for the past four years. Let every elector calmly con- sider the great principles involved in the approaching contest, and support those only, who, by their antecedents, have she wn themselves worthy of being invested with the high and important trust, which the position of Parliamentary Repre- sentative imposes. While we maintain that the ab- sence of high integrity of character in private life should be sufficient to exclude the claims Of any aspiâ€" rant for legislative honours; yet we must, at the same time most so- lemnly protest against the practice of selecting men entirely on these grounds; unless they at the same time possess the ability to discharge the duties appertaining to their po- sition, with credit to themselves, and advantage to their constituents. If your representative is deficient in shrewdness and business talent, your interests must suffer from ina- bility to perceive the remedies de- manded by the necessities of the country; and from the fact that he is constantly liable to be over-reachâ€" ed by more crafty and designing men. If he dues not possess the capacity to originate, introduce and support measures for your benefit, he sinks into contempt; and the importance of your constituency being measured by the mental cali- bre ofits representative, becomes insignificant in the eyes of the coun- try. II the candidate who solicits your vote, does not possess the ta- lents to advocate what is right, and to condemn what is wrong, to ex- pose corruption and dishonour, whenever it exists, and bring the guilty to punishment, whatever. be his position or however great his power to retaliate, them" let no per- sonal consideration whatever .in- duce you to support him, while a better man can be found. If your candidate has shewn himself to be, a mere appendage of ambitious place-seekers, a mere cipher in the hands of demagogues, then with- draw youâ€"r support and put a better man in his place. Let men he se- lected who by their fitness for the position in which flu are about to place them, will reflect back the honour conferred upon them. Let us no longer send to parliament men whose vocabulary inthe house is confined to the narrow limits of yes and no, as expressed by their silent votes; and who appear to be impressed with the idea. that the in- junction, ‘let your communication be you or nay,’ should be literally observed in the discharge of parlia- the West, in opposition to Mr. How- land. Let us have men who possess at least sufficient moral courage to ex- press their sentiments in Parlia- ment, and give a reason for their votes. Meeting at Hagerman’s Cor- ners of the Moderate Party. ON Saturday last, the, 15th inst., a' meeting was held at Gould’s Inn, Hagerman‘s Corners, 6th Conces- sion Markham. A very respectable turn out was in attendance, and, after doing ample justice to the dinner provided by Mr. Gould, which was served up in the best style, about two o‘clock they pro- ceeded to business. The greatest unanimity prevailed through the whole proceedings ; and every one seemed to vie with each other in courtesy. A. BARKER, Esq., moved, so- conded by JAMES BOWMAN, Esq., that John Gibson. Esq., take the chair; and Mr. William Milliken act as Secretary.â€"- Carried. 4‘ Mr. GIBSON, the chairman, of- called upon all the delegates from the different Municipalities to hand in their credentials. Every dele- gate from Markham was in at- tendance, but‘the other municipa- lities were not represented by dele- gates chosen at any public meeting. Many electors, however, of the right stamp, from Scarboro’ and East York were present; and al- though these gentlemen fairly re- presented the party, still they did not appear in the capacity of de- legates. After some discussion Mr. Barker was unanimously called upon to express his views thereon, which he did. In a brief yet lucid manner be detailed the steps that had been taken in the township of Markham, and remarked that hav- ing acquiesced in the propriety of this convention, he regretted to find that the other municipalities in the riding had shown such want of sympathy in tl‘e movement, that he declined coming forward under the circumstances. Mr. Barker said he would waver any claim he had upon the electors, and would support Mr. T. A. Milne, and hoped the gentlemen present would join with him. This pro- position was favorably received. W. H. Nonnrs, Esq., got up and lmade some remarks, and said he would waiver all claims he had upon the Electors ll} favor 0f Ml} T. A. Milne. JAMES BEACEELL, Esq., called upon to address the meeting, which he did, concluding by an- nouncing that he would waiver any claims he had upon the Electors, and use every exertion to secure the return of Mr. T, A. Milne. The following resolutions were brought up: Moved by JAMES BEACHEL. Esq., seconded by JAMES-BOWMAN, Esq , that T. A. Milne, Esq., be the. per- son_selected as candidate on behalf of this Riding; and that a. requisi- tion be forwarded to him immedi- atelyâ€"Carried unanimously. Some time was necessary, of course, to get up the requisition, and givmg those present art opporg tunrty to Sign; alter which Mr. Milne, in a very appropriate speech, accepted the nomination.

Mr. [Milne is a young man, the son of an old and much respected citizen, the late Peter Milne, Esq., known everywhere as a man of sterling: integrity and uprightne-ss of cha- racter. Mr. Milne inherits from his father the principles of an up- right honest. man, which, added to good moral training and .a libeâ€" 3 ml education,'fit him to represent ‘ the intelligence of this wealthy riding. In addition to, this, Mr. Milne is a man of independent means. farmer by profession, he is the most proper man to represent a farming community. * Mr .4 Markham Races.

D“ THE Two BEST AUTHORITIES IN CANADA.-â€"A GOOD JOKE l-â€"-At the great Brown meeting in Toronto on MOnday evening last, that gentle- man, after repeating a long list. of charges of corruption, jobbery, and wrong-doing against the present. government, was asked by an elec- ‘tor if there was any other authority for the assertions he had made than himself and the Globe. ‘1 don’t think,’ answered the mo- dest gentleman, ‘ you would be able to find in all Canada two better au- thorities.’ Verily, trumpeters must be scarce. The idea of taking Mr. Brown and the Globe as authorities, appeared to the audience to be so extremely ludicrous, that we are told the merriment produced by the answer did not subside for some minutes.

The match came off on the ground adjoining Cook’s Hotel, on Yonge St., near Thornhill. The weather was beautiful; the slight rain which fell in the morning having much improved the ground. “ Play ” was called a little before noon; Richmond Hill going in first and scoring 32. Their Opponents followed making 23. Elated with so favourable an issue, our players wentin for the second time in the best Spirits possible, but, re- membering that “There is many a slip ’tween the cup and the lip,” made every exertion to get as high a score as p0ssible.~ Forty-nine runs were made in the second innings, when Thornhill again took the bat and succeeded in scoring 45, thus leaving the Richmond Hill players the winners by 13 runs.

Mr. Mackay, Superintendant of the Newfoundland telegraph line, sends the following particulars, from St. John’s periutendent, Montrealâ€"- Mr. and Mr. Blount and two children; Mayhew, of Wisconsin; _ a Danish or Swedish Captain. named VVickman, who greatly distinguished himself during the trying half-hour, went down with the ship. Tell Panton’s friends he died through too great anxiety to save the mails. Davis, 2nd officer, was lowering himself down off the davits when the ship sunk. The chief cook was on the fan of the screw, but he jumped offend was sucked down. There was a great explosion of the after part of the ship. Young Bainbridge, of Oshawa, went down with the ship, but floated, and was picked up insensable. He is well now, All the passengers are stowed away here comfortably. Not an ounce of baggage among the whole lot was saved. ~ [Signed,] A. M.MACAY. Immediately after the collision the Ct - with steam on. when all hopes of reaching the shors with the ship were lost, the boats Were lowered and sent away full of people. Boat N0. 8 upset, all in her perished. Five minutes after the lowering of the boats the ship went down bcw first with a heavy plunge, in 40 fathonts of water all that were on board, except six who were picked up, one of whom afterwards died. At the time the ship went down there was a fearful ex- plosion aft. The Captain's boat was about ‘20 feet from the ship when it sund, and was neatly swamped. Only seven mail- bags were saved. 0f the cabin passen- gers six are known to he lost. A F EARFUL VOYAGE. __..__~ THE“ MAID or THE MIST ” oomo DOWN - THE RAPIDS. The little steamer, Jl/Iaid ofthe Mistâ€"- so well known to tourists as to require no description at our handsâ€"accomplished yesterday one of the most extraordinary voyages ever made by a vessel in this country; and one which has no parralel in another country. She steamed downthe rapids in the Niagara River, from her moorings between the Falls and the Bridge, to Queenston. performing the voyage in the short space of 17 minutes. The Maid started a few minutes past 3 o’clock, many persons watching her very anxiously from the Bridge, and from either bank of the river, everyone’s mind being worked up to the highest possible state of exettetnent watching the little thing as she Sped down the swift current, expecting to sce her dashed to pieces in the fearful rapids. Those acquainted with .the Niagara River below the Bridge will recollect that a shOrt distance above the \Vliirlpool there is a most stupendous rapid, presenting to the eye an insurmountable obstacle to the safe navigation of any boat, much less a small craft like the Maid. When she reached this part every derson expected that she would have been dashed to pieces ; and, indeed, she was almost completely co- vered by the seething mass of water, and her smoke-stack knocked down, but. in a very short time she issued from, her peril- ous position apparently uninjured, and pro. ceeded very rapidly to encounter her next greatest difficulty in getting down the river, viz. the Whirlpool. It has been the com- mon belief that if a boat, even larger than the Maid, should ever get fairly into this, that it would be impossible to extricate her, attd all eyes were strapied to their ut- most to watch the fate of her daring crew of three persons. It took her some five minutes to get clear of the Whtrlpool.â€" She did not get turned at all, and a long sigh of relief was given by the spectators when it was discovered that she had brave- ly got over the last obstacle of magnitude to her passage down the river. She reach- ed Queenston in 1'] minutes from the time of leaving her wharf. without sustaining other damage than the loss-of her smoke- stack, and afterwards steamed to Port Dalhousie, and went on Messrs. Donaldâ€" son &. Andrew’s Dock last evening for repairs. The Maid is owned by Mr. W. O. Buchanan, Suspension Bridge, and the fol- lowing are the names of the persons who brought her down, viz. :-- Captain, Joel R. Robinson, of Niagara Falls, the well-known Rapids pilot, and a man who has dared death in many a fear- ful contest with the waters of Niagara. Engineer, J. H. Jones, of the same place. This man’s risk was most fearful, for had an accident Occurred to the boat, it IS ’not likely that he could have got on deck in time to save himself. James McIntyre, also of the Falls, was a volunteer, and assisted as fireman, thus running the same risk as Mr. Jones. Mr. Cameron, supposed to be the best pilot on the St. Lawrence river, was sent for by Mr. Buchanan to take the Maid down, but when he saw the dangerous ra- pids and other obstacles, be pronounced the feat impossible. but the three men above named have taught him that the pilots round Niagara Falls are capable of taking ves- sels through dangers that he dare not at- tempt. It is said that Mr. Bacbauan gave $500 ‘ndx -W- to get the steamer down, but what he, is going to do with her now that she is down we do not know,and believe that he does not know himself. She might make mon ney plying between this place and Toronto ; and then again she might be sold for ‘ a good penny’ to the U. S. Government to use as a mail or despatch boat on the . Hudson, Chesapeake, or Potomac. ~St. Catherine's Journal. On Sunday morning, at 2 o’clock, an unoccupied frame dwelling house on Spa- dina Avenue, was discovered to be on fife. The firemen turned out promptly and work- ed efficiently, httt in consequence of a li- mited supply of water, the house was burn- ed to the ground. It appears the fire was the work of an incendiary, for about ten minutes before the bells gave the alarm, a young man named John Crawford, was ar- rested for crying ‘ Fire ’ on Court street, ‘when there appeared to be none at the ‘ time. N. F., of the 15th, to O. S. \Vood, S'u- , In a short time afterwards, how- ever, the flamt‘s were seen at some distance of; but how Crawford became aware oh ' it is not known-.â€"â€"Brz.tish Harald. CLEAR GRIT HONESTY.â€"â€"-We see by the published correspondence in the Anderâ€" son case that Zl'Ir. Freeman. has received from the Government $4977 for defending the negro. We just mention the fact in Order that the Globe may take note of it. As the Government got so much abuse for the course they sat fit, in the interer of law and Order, to take in, bringing this matter before the Courts, it is but right that the amount which Mr. Freeman re- ceived from them for his ‘ disinterested’ advocacy of the prisoner, should be given to the public. Oh! honesty, thou art the jewel rarely to be found in these climes.â€"-Momus. THE AMERICAN DIFFICULTY. Nothing as yet decisive. A feW‘sktrb mislies have taken place consequent upon the advance of the Federal army into the South. Several points occupied by the secessionists have been given up, the most important of which is Harper’s Ferry. A statesman should have care to hear the distant rustling of the wings of Time. Most. people only catch sight of it when it is flying away. When it is overhead is. darkens their view.
