the observation of the day. Arches were
erected at different places in the town,
and mottoes of welcome were scattered at-

in the breeze,It was anticipated that a
very large crow-

these anticipations were fully realized.
The Morning of the 12th,opined with rain,
and continued throughout till noon,. but
this did not apparently keep many away,
as special trains from all sections brought
in large numbers ofpeople, until the town
was crowded by several thousands. After
dinner the Orangemen assembled on the
show ground, and marched in procession
through the town, and then up to the old

of prosperity on every hand. Twelvemonths

of Woodstock and had there thankedthe
member for North Oxford, Mr. James Suther-
land, as Reformer,'for, the manly part he had
taken 'in supporting the ,incorporation bill.
He Was sorry be could not extend a similar
courtesy on the present occasion to the niem-
