read we are plumed to learn that the display
of amity and good feeling was eooepted by
Hon Mr. Tarte in the same friendly man-

When the 1:36 P.M. trine arrived then
was • large 00000arse of people at the

upon by a large delegetioo,00mpruing mem-

addition we have • number of tmportaut
manufactories, including one of the : rat t
floor mills in the Province.
But that in whioh you are ohiefiy toter•

bor, as doubtless you aro aware, was 000-
structed as • bat bot of refuge, &t oeceider-
•ble expense, end when finally put into ite
present elms was properly oonsidered a
public neo.ssity in the inter. its not aloes of
Goderiob and its immediate vicinity, hot of
