The immediate cause of Mr. Brown’s leaving the Ministry is now publicly an- nounced in Parliament, as arising from a difference of opinion between him and his colleagues on the commercial policy of the Government,in regal-a to our trade relations with the United States. Mr. Brown takes high ground, and is very decidedly opposed to meeting our Ameri can cousins on such terms as his col- leagues were prepared to accept. We have read the . speeches of Messrs.

The question has been frequently askâ€" e'd “ have the School Trustees received the Insurance money 'l’†We understand that the Board has decided upon taking legal advice in regard to it, and will act accordingly. We believe there is but one opinion upon this Insurance affair, and the Trustees will be fully sustained by public opinion in refusing to accept less than the amount of the estimate which the Royal Insurance Cempany's Inspector agreed to pay. It is paltry and say the least of it, for Mr. F.

The In- ‘spector told the Trustees that they were to go on at once and repair the Schools to suit themselves,â€"â€"that the Company would pay the amount of their estimate, (about $390)â€"-and if the Trustees could save anything out of that sum for the beneï¬t of the Schools, so much the better for them, the Company would not interfere.

In presenting my report, as Secretary of the Richmond Hill Mechanics’ Insti- tute, for its ï¬rst semi-annual term, I do so with pleasure. Organized as our So- ciety wasâ€"under inauspicious circum- stances, and with prejudice inrthe minds of many against it,-â€"â€"-â€"as members, we have every reason to congratulate ourâ€" selves on our past success, and present prosperity. The total membership is forty, and those consisting of gentlemen from the most intelligent portion of the the community. Societies devoted to the cultivation of intellectual faculties and the dissemination of knowledge rather than to mere amusement, always experience much diï¬iculty in sustaining themselves, but when men of education7 and others possessing agood share of gen- eral information, connect themselves with such societies, they give stamina to the institution and by their talents, influ- ence, and position contribute much to wards its stability. We are now at the close of the Lecture season, but during its whole course the public have shown their appreciation of the eï¬'orts of the Institute to provide good intellectual en- tertainment, by large and attentive au- diences. To our mind lectures deliver-‘ ed by gentlemenv’of talent and ability are ‘ among the best modes of conveying in- struction to the ‘ masses for hundreds will listen attentively to an attractive We invite the attention of owners of geese, pigs, and horses running about the village to the absolute necessity of taking steps to prevent such property from running at large, we have borne with it patiently for some time back, but. it has at last become an insufferable nuisance to the whole neighborhood, and we hope it only requires to be men- tioned, to be stopped,â€"â€"otherwise they must be impounded, and costs incurred; «we trust this hint will suflice.

D. l The principal object in founding the Institute was the obtaining of a course of lectures for the winter months. If no beneï¬t had been derived from the small sum paid as membership fee, We should after having received so large an intel- lectual dividend have considered it money well invested. In connection with these we have had at our ordinary meetings discussions GD various SUbjeFtS, original Essays and papers of; a variety of topics, and ‘ Readings,’ of numerous literary selections from the writings of Milton, and Shakespeare down to those of Charles Dickens and Artcmus Ward. Since our organization the members of the Institute have been presented with a set of books by Amos W'right qu. M.

A lVIechaniesI Institute is n‘sort of intellectual copart- nership. Each member is beneï¬ted by It nu “mental capital invested by his fellow n‘iï¬ï¬ber. His net proï¬t is in propor- tion to their ability and willingness to draw on their resources for the general good. V On this account we desire that gentlemen who have been so fortunate asrrtoï¬sc‘oure an education and have added to that education in the course of" years, much valuable information should attend our meetings on all possiâ€" ble occasions7 and aid in rendering them a school of taste learning and experience to the younger members.‘ To the great majority of the members of-the Institute schnel‘d ays are o‘er,theynow have scarcely any other way’ for the acquisition of knowledge than availing themselves of the opportunities held out by these mu- tualibeneï¬t societies. To many of us the desire of knowledge seems inherent in our very nature, and in others the phrenologioal organ oi‘ curiosity seemes to be largely developed ; this leads us to look to thosejwhose attainments are great. or than our own and whose experience and practice enables them to convey their ideas in a clear and comprehensive man» nor to otlrgzs. The greater number of' able men, we have in connection with us, who are Willing to gentribute aid so essential to the success of our Institute the greater will be the opportunity of its members to enquire that knowledge which it is their object to obtain. In our society we have no arbitrary rules or compulsory laws, .but it is ex- pecte'd, that each member will endeavor to contribute to the best of his ability to the general beneï¬t; and by ‘Reading’ Recitations, ‘or Essay writing aid in making our institute sufficiently interest- ing, to cause its nights of meeting to be looked for with pleasant anticipations, by all in connection with it, and attract the attention and we hope the co-opera- tion of others. All of which is respectfully submitted. W. HARnIsoN, Sec.
