With all their attempts to mislead opinions, they cannot avoid showing their own belief in the complete failure or the Government. It has had no real success, though it. has trumpeted the election of its Speaker as con- clusive evidence of its strength; but many voted from respect to the personal character of‘Mr. Wall- bridge, and not at all in support of the Ministry.

On their arrival they were met. by the Captain Peel’s Rifle Company, the Aurora Sax-horn Band, and the inhabitants of the village, and many‘visitors from the neighborenod. immediately after the arrival of the train; a‘, Procession was formed, and all marched to a delightful grove near the Station, to the music of the 10th Royals and Aurora bands. No pains had been spared by the local‘committoe in providing 'for the comfort and amuSement of the party; plathrms had been eroded for dancing, swings for the amusement of the juveniles, and even.a well had been . sunk for'the accommodation of the pic-nickers.
