BAD STATE OF AFFAIRS IN CANADA.
By the following, from the Toronto (Upper Canada)
Examiner, it appears that the spirit of disordnr and
violence is in active operation in that prorince:—
On the 12th instant our city WOOdisgraced with**
of those foolish exhibitions of party hostility--aa Dr
ange Procession, with music and banners, puading
our principal streets in open day, directly ia the teeth
of the law, of last session concerning "Party Prams
sinus." We are pleased to have to record, * toonec
tion with this, that some of the magistrates of thetniqr.
particularly Alderman Garnett, manifested a becoming
detet mination to secure respect for the law, and to
bring its violators to justice. We are informed that
the Proclamation required by the act was read, bus
being disregarded, an effort was made to arrest acme
of the leaders, during which Alderman G. and others
of the magistrates were asstodted and "shamefully
handled." With the aid of the constabulary force,
however, from 12 to 18 of the party were arrested and
lodged in jail, some ofwhom were subsequently bailed
out by Mr. Alderman Boulton, and on their being
brought up next day for examination, we are told so
' many of their Orange friends attended the Police
Court, and threats having been held oat of pain:mai
violence to the sitting magistrate*, the Court was
overawed, and the prisoners had to be remanded to
jail, until arrangements should be tondo to guard the
authorities in the exercise of their duties. The subse
quent examinations resulted in the binding over of
about 14 or 15 persons to take their triarat the neat
assizes.
Another Orange. demonstration took place on she
same day, under different circumstances, and Which
had well nigh resulted-in a bloody tragedy. A large
party, numbering, we are told, about 900 persons,
male and female, proceeded across the lake, in the
morning, on board the steamer Admiral, on a. trip to
the falls of Niagara, accompanied, we are informed by
a considerable number, if not the whole, of the temper
ance band, with their musical instruments. The at
tention of the Orangemen bodies- some time previous
been publicly announced, and a ginner had been en
gaged in one of the hotels et the Falls, on the British
side. It was generally known that a short time ago
sonic thousands of laborers, at the Weßand.Canal,
had struck for an advance of wages, mkt :Isere then
unemployed. Rumors were abroad that trouble might
be expected, and the Orange party determined 4o pre
pate themselves for the worst; and, we are informed,
went with abundance of weapons of defwe., Indeed,
throughout the night previous the inhaNtants of this
city were greatly disturbed by the noise of parties, ap
parently arriving from the country, and by the frequent
discharge of tire arms.
The morning was very favorable for the excursion,
and the day might have been spent delightfully, but
for the fierce passions of the human breast, which
have of late been roused on one side of the counte
nance given by our Colonial Government to Orange
ism, on the one hand; and the galling remembrance of
the wanton insults heaped upon the Catholics by Or
range processions,on the other. On arriving at Queens
ton, where parties leave the steamer and take the rail
road, the passengers learned that a large body of Cath
olic laborers had come to the Fulls from St Catbarine's
and as far west as Branford, and were scattered in the
woods all along the line of the rout from Queenston.
We are informed that advice was given, that if they
(the Orange party) determined to go forward, their
safety lay in leaving all their Orange badges, instru
ments of music, and all offensive weapons behind
them, otherwise a collision would take place; and
much blood would be shed. This advice was happi
ly followed; for, on reaching the terminus of the mil
road, about 1,500 Catholic laborers, armed with dead
ly weapons of various kinds, met them, and there
were perhaps us many scattered through the woods,
who, it iv said, would have cm every one of the par
ty down had there been the slightest manifestation. of
Orangeism. Some of the party remained at Queens
ton,others crossed and went up on the American side.
some hastily crossed below the Fellows' returned via
Lewiston; and a part of those who were going from
Queenston did not go on to the Fella, but returned
with all haste on foot to that village. Happily, no vi
olence of any moment was done on either side, but
one of the pleasure (2) partydeclared that he had pas
sed through many scenes of danger, and hid been in
many engagements, but never, until that day, had
death appeared to him under so terrific an aspect.--
The laborers were armed with muskets, bayonets,
scythes, reaping hooks, &c., and but for the *presence
of acompany of the rifle corps, which had been pru
dently sent up from Niagara to the Falls, and the per
fect absence of any party insignia or language, the
consequence would bare been a fearful riot and des
truction of life.
Our contemporary of the Herald complains that
none of the party had given him en accotmt of the a&
Ink, but we are not surprised et the circumstance, foe
the whole was humiliating in the extreme. The Or.
ange party was completely in the power of the Catho
lics, and many ludicrous scenes might in such a au* .
have been looked for, and actually did occur. labials)
we d J not wish to record, as it would only tend to ag
gravale, instead of calming the disturbed feelings of
those interested.
We condemn Catholic, as well as Orange outrages.
The laborers at the canal stead guilty era violent tussah
of the peace, and t4eir ringleaders should, if known, be .;
brought to justice. But no such acts of party violence
would havo happened had the govcruraent done its
duty.
THE BANK OF ENGLAND

We give below an abstract of thenew Bank Charter
proposed at Loudon on the 21th of June to-Sir Robert
Peel by a deputation from the Committee en, Joint
Stock Banks. Sir Robert consented to the fonewing
modifications, which will be reed with interest by our
readers:
1. That instead of the average of the two years as
originally propoied, the maximum of the futons circa!'
lation shall be ratdd by the average of the cinsoktfoo

4. That tlie'actshall not come int, operatioetes Cae
country banks are concerned, until tlie2sthier,

when a union took place between the two joira'stock
banks, ore joint stookesuul s private bank, the unit*.
bank might issue to they united amount of tlieir prerionti
circulations. But to this be" objected, on the grotimt
that the whole circulation of the e.outury , si4ght-sbosek
fall into the bands of a few large companies...
