Thia is abrird, for any advance however lerge would not reach the sem he has given up. Nu doubt he has been influenced by the fear of • prosecution, which is still threetened, though his own explanation of his conduct is to the effect that he had 'mewled, ever nom his removal from the preaidency of th• company in the early part of last year, to return tle money he was moused of leaving plundered, and that he had mere- ty held it till his relations with the esespony were sausfactesorily arranged. If this were the case, it is rather stranp that he should always hays denied that he was indebted to the company in any way, or that he had any of its funds in his posesersion, and that he should al- ways have declared his readiness to con- test his right to the property which he was chaapd with having frauelulentlY anpospetseed.

After the audience had speut a reesonable time over the reel things ef this earth; and young and old, low and high, had apparently done justice to themselves, the County Chief, Mr. Wanleas, was 'called to the chair, and presided over the meeting in his usual happy manner. The mental part of the entertainment then commenced. and consisted of recitations, dialogues, readings, speeches and music. A num- ber of very &noising reettattons and dia- logues were spoken by Messrs Campbell and Armstron, ef Varna, Meters C. Barlow, W. \ an Valkenburs, and Dr. Buensuan and Misses McDougall, Arnold, E. ef sheik, Van V elkenburg and several others of Zurich; and • reading by Mr. Redmond. Able and elognent speeches were delivered by Messrs J. Grandy, W. Grandy, P. O'Brien, Odium and Dr. Buchanan who showed in a elear and forcible manner the evils and dangers arising from the use of intoxicating liquoes; and the benefits accruing from the strict °beery- ance of temperance principles. During the evening several beautiful pieces of music were performed on the melodeon by Mies Hopkins of Exeter. Very much w as added to the excellency of the en- tertainment by the presenoe of the Zurich Brass Bend, which played a large n umber of pieces in • style that far sur- passed the expectations of all present; and when we oormider the rapid progress they have made in the short time they hbauTteZurienhPwill soon have a music band second to none in the county. The usual votes of thaoks wore pro- posed. and at eleven o'clock the audi- ence dispersed in good spirits, hiehly pleased with the entertainment. TIKYKRAYR-It Lzorres.-The Rev.
