The Lorette indict - Mi.—We were pre sent at Quebec, at the time when the death of William the Fourth was announc ed and the recognition of Queen Victoria took place. The Sunday succeeding we visited Lorene, well known is the princi pal village of the Canadian Hurons. The Council Chief, whose name has escaped our recollection, a venerable man in ap pearance, although wanting that dignity of mien which generally characterizes the Indian, had visited England, on a visit to George the Fourth after his accession to the throne. He cherished his recollection, secondary only to that of Edmund Kean, the tragedian, who, it wilLhe remembered was made a chief of that tribe. The old chief was sufficiently reconciled to the do minion of the Admiral King, hilt could not join the general congratulations in favor of Victoria, having all the antipathy of his nation against being governed by a wo man. This circumstance was recalled to recollection by the following •circumstance related in ono of our exchange papers.

" THE 'DIFFICULTY AT HARRISBURG IN A The loco members for the Senate and House of Representatives undoubtedly received a majority of votes in all the wards and districts in the County of ltheadelphiat---but Tory Ingersol did not receive utma jority of votes for 'Congress over Charles Naylor in the-Third Congressional District. TorOngersol and that tool of the (;eneral Government. and traitor, file- Cohen, attempted to commit a fraud upon the people by- procuring persons to swear that the tally-papers were lost in one of the Van B tren wards in the North• ern Liberties, and the election held illegal in the other, consequently the votes polled in these two wards could not be received. On this ground the locos threw out the votes in the whole seven words, and gave the return to Tory IngersoL The whits very foolishly believed that the locos swore to-the truth, and threw out the votes iii the two wards only where the locos proved the election was held illegaLand re ceived the votes in all the other wards and districts. This gave the Whig Senators and Representatives in the County a majority, and Charles Naylor an increas ed Majority. and they were returned by the' Whig judges according to law.
