It is highly prob able, however, that many of them have Leon subsidized by the despots ton hose! infamous cause they have prostituted them selves, and therefore their own baseness is the only matter uf surprise.

'We live comfortably and respectably, and have no cause to complain of our fortune." At this moment the master of the house entered the apartment.

It is doubtless known to many ef oar readers, that when the Messrs. Blacka connection with the St. Lawrence & Atlan tic Railroad Company ceased, their sub contractors decided upon presenting to them a testimonial of the esteem and re gard, which their uniform liberality and consideration, while constructing the great work on which all had been engaged, had secured to them. It was finally determined that this testimonial should consist of as elegant service of silver plate to Mr. Black, senior, and of a gold snuff box to his son. Mr. William H. Black. It was further determined that they should be presented to the Messrs Blacka' at St. Hyacinthe.on Wednesday last, where they had been in vited to a dinner at the Exchange Hotel.in honor of the occasion. On Wednesday, then, about six o'clock, about seventy gen tlemen sat down to Mr. Savage's well-supplied board Mr. William Brooks, of Sher brooke, in the Chair, supported on the right and left by the guests of the evening, and Mr. J. Findlay at the foot of the table. Among the guests we remarked Dr. Bou tillier, M P. P. fur the County, Mr. La framboise,(Seignior of St Pyacinthe,) Mr. Cheney of Sherbrooke, Mr. Barnes of St Hyacinthe, Mr. George Brooks of Sher- brooke, Mr. Farewell of Shipton Mr , Pomro of Compton, and other Ltlemea romroy ol Lompton, and other gentlemen ..TLe Governor General of Canada" utuuiuur general or panada was . . ... lien arank with the usual honors.
