(/•hull Tlie (ituellc, Montreal, i'liid March, 1871.^ 1)11 TiK'scIay, L'lst Miinli, 1871, boiiiK the (lay appointwl for the marriage of the I'lincess Louisa and Hie Marquis of Lome, service was held in St. Andrew's (Jliureli at noon, for the purpose of invoking the bless- ing; of Almiglity God upon tlie nuptials. It was a happy thought that prompted this assembly ; and the large number who, in spite of the rain, attended the service, af- forded the most gratifying evidence of the general interest felt by Her Majesty's subjects in Canada, in the hai)piness of Her Majesty's house-hold at Home. I'y noon every seat in the body of tlie large church was filled, and even the galleries were fully occupied. The (•ttiee-bearers and members of the St. Andrew's and (Caledonian Societies attended, in terms of advertisements from the respective Presi- dents of these bodies. The Rev. Dr. Jenkins, of St. Paul's Church, presided on the occasion, and below him, facing the congregation, were the Pwevds. Gavin Lang, St. Andrew's Church ; llobt. Campbell, St. Gabriel's Church ; W. JI. Black, St. Mark's Church ; C. A. Doudiet, St. John's Church ; and the Rev. Neil Mac- Ki.<h, lil)., of St. John's Church, Cornwall. In the absence of Mr. Caullield, the organist of the church, Mr. Walton of Trinity Church, presided at the organ. After a voluntary, (Mendelsohn's Wedding March,) the Rev, Dr. Jenkins gave out the 2nd paraphrase, the large congregation joining heartily inj the singing. I ) ( Jod of Bethel ! !iy whose luind thy jwople still are led ; Who through this weary prilgrlmofje hast all our fathers led : Our vows, our pray'rs we now present l)elor(' thy t lirone of •irnee : (icMl of our fathers !

Such blessings fmni thy gracious hand our humble pray 'rs Implore; .\tid thou Shalt be our chosen God uiul iiortlon evermore. \ The Rev, Ront. CAMPnELi, then read the KcriptureLcHsons. From thu Old Testament, the 128th I'salm: UlesKed Is pvory ono tliat I'l'iirelli the Lord; that walknlh In his waye, For thou Khiilteat tlio labour of thine hands: happy (ilialt thou be, and it shall Ik- well with thee. Thy wile shall hp as a tVnltliil vine by the sides of thine house: thy elillih-eii like olive i)lanls roundabout thy table. Hehv)l(l that thus Ehall the man be blessed that feureth the I,ord. The r.onl shall bless t lice out ofZlon, an<I thou shall seethe g«xxl of Jerusalem all the days of thy life. Yea, thou shalt see thy ''liHtlren'sclilldrcn, and peace uiim Israel. And from (he New Testtiment, from the first epistle of Peter, 2nd chapter, 13th to 17th verses, inclusive : — Submit yourselves to every ordinance of man for the iiord's sake: whether It be to the King, as supreme; Or unto Governors, a.s unto them that are sent by him fertile punishment of evildoers, and for llie praise of them that ilo well. For so is the will of (.t<xI, that with well-doluf; ye may |iut to silcneo the Ignoranee of foolish "men : As free, and not nsliiK your liberty for a eloak of mailelousness, but as the servants of G(xl. Honour all men. Love the brothorltood. Fear Ho«l. Honour the King. Tht Rev. W. M. Black, then offered np the following collect, concluding with the Lord's prayer : — Almi;;lity t;<Hl, Father of lis;lils, from wliom eometli down every giKxl and every perfeet gift, grant mito us 1 iiy servants the sirfrit of grace and s\ipplieiilion, tiiat we may draw near unto 'I'hee now wilb humble, lowly, penit^'Ut and obe- <Uent hearts, making ei»nlesston of our great un- worllilness and asking of Tlie ■ such things a.s we need.

Tin; Rev. Dr. .Iknkins next gave out tlie 72nd Hymn; — riORi), whll(> lor all mankind we i ray, I >f every elliiie and coast, ( » liear us for our native lan<l,— Tlie land we love tlie most, ( >ur fathers' sepulchres are there, And there our kindred dwell ; Our cbildrefi, too;— how sliould wo love Anollu^r lan<| so well.

Lord of the nations, tluii- toTli'e Our eouulry we commiind ; lie Thou our refuge and oitr lrn..|, Our c'verliusling friend. The Rev. Gavin Last,, of St. AndiTw's Church, then delivered tlie following ad- dress : — Dear Brethren — A few wonls will siiftire, and very few are required, to explain why we are thus assembled. For several reasons, it seemed right and desirable that, as Christians, ■we should meet in this way, and ask the blessing of Almighty God tipon the union which is being to-day consummated between one of the daughters of our beloved Sover- eign and one of tha sons of our beloved Fatherland. As loyal subjects, we could not render a greater service to tiie illustriotis bride and bridegroom. Better than all mar- riage gifts, however costly, or public rejoic- ings, however exuberant, are tha prayers breathed by devout worshippers for grace, mercy, and peace from God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Gho.st I am sure that each of us i'* ready, heart and soul, to join, at the footstool of the heavenly throne, in of- fering such prayers in behalf of those, around whose nuptials the best wishts of all well-di.sposed persons, in every part of the British Dominions, have been for monvlis past, and are, at this moment, gathering. Very many, among us who are here present, must feel a more than ordinary interest in the event which has brought us together. Those of us who are Scotch Churchmen have good reason to be so interested, partly because the Queen herself, who belongs equally to both State Churches, and the Royal children, have ever evinced a warm and marked love for the Church of Scotland ; and partly because the Marquis of Lome is, as are also the ether members of the Ducal house of Argylo, faithful and consistent in adherence and att^ichment to our church. But, all of us, who arc Scotchmen, whe- ther Churchmen or not, must tVel a keen interest in this marriage, chietiy because our distinguished countryman is, in every respect, worthy of the new dignity to which, by his matrimonial alliance, he is now advanced. Almost princely by birth, still more princely in virtue and character, it is most fitting, as it is to us most gratify- ing, that he should wed a Princess of the blood-Royal and become thus closely connec- ted with a Court, than V Inch there is no purer in Christciidom. Her Majesty, besides doing t i 3 t lionour to liiin, lias at the Knmu time scciivcd (omfurtfor iRi'si'lCnnd the Rood of lior child, hy sanctioninff tliu inuri-iagi;, which lins pro- lialily ere tiiin, tnUcii place, and ib creating so ui(le-s[)read a. hdppineBS nmong her peoi)k'. OiirdeKJro for her is that, in tliis bond, sho iiinytind asolaee and nati.sfaction which will footlio the bitterness of her dcep-scnted grief, and, in some measure, help to fill the blank (atised by liis death, whose loss, all clasRetin the kingdom, with lier, mourned in heaviness (if spirit. For OIK' widowed Queen, on this day of universal rejoicing, we implore nil needed support and blessing. For the Prin- cess and her hu.sband, wo implore a long life of love, unity, godliness and usefulness. For the I!o)'nl family in general, and for that member of it in jiartieular, the memory of whose recent most pleasing residence in thi.s city can never be cfliiced, we imjilore God's ijracious favor and help. For " tlie Holy (.'atholie Church" everywhere, all who hold to the one faith in L'hrist, we implore in- creased enlargement, illumination, i)urity and neal. I-'or the whole empire, with especial mention of our own Dominion, we implore a continuance and growth of prosperity and stability. And all this, by the mouth of His servant, who is now to lead us in our mo;e special devotions, i.e do, according to the word of (iod, who hath commanded us to pray for all ranks and conditions of men ; iind "unto wliom be glory in the Church, by Christ Jesus, tiiroughout all ages, world witli- out end, Amen.'' Tlie special iirayer of the day was next dltercd \)l^ by the Kuv. John Jenkins, D.D., of St. Paul's Church, in substance as follows : — Almighty and ever-living God, our Hea- venly Father, we approach Thee in the name of Jesus Christ, the One Mediator between (iod and men. Great art Thou, and greatly to be praised, and worthy to be had in re- membrance of us Thj' creatures. We acknow- ledge our dependence upon Thee for all good, for in Thee we live, and move, and have our lieing ; it is Thou that hast made us, and not we ourselves; we are Thy jjeople, and tlie sheep of Thy pasture. We praise Thy name, Lord, that we are found together in Thy house of prayer at this time, oflering united thanksgivings and sup- plications at the Throne of Grace. Aldus, wo beseech Thee, b> Thy Holy Spirit's teaching, that the service which we now ren- der may be a spiritual service, and therefore Hcceptttble in Thy sight. Not that we are worthv, O Lord, to present unto tlico any Facrifice, for we have all sinned and come short of the glory of God. If we say that we liave no sin, wc deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us; but if we confess our sins, TIiou artfaitliful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unright- eousness. Most Jlereiful Father, through Him upon whom Thou hast laid the injquity of us all, who was wounded for our trans- gressions, and bruised for our iniquitien, and liy whose stripes wo are healed, we beseech Thee, liide thy fac'c from our sins, and blot out all our iniquities. (;reate in us a clean heart, O God, and renew a right spirit within us, for a broken and contrite heart, God, thou wilt not despise. We lift our hearts in thanksgiving to Thee, Lord God, nutlioi of every good and perfect gift, for all thy goodness and loving Idnducss to us and to all men. We thank Thee for the bounties of Thy Providence, so richly bestowed upon \u ; for the Christian privileges tliat have attended us, from our childhood until now ; for the gift of Thy Holy Word, which Thou hast given to be a light unto our feet, and a lamp unto our path ; for the unspeakable gift of Thy Son, whom Thou didst send into the world to be our Saviour ; and for the ordinances of the Christian Church, and the grace which through them is imparted to those who be- lieve. Wo thank Tlieo also for llie i>i ivi- leges, civil and religious, which we enjoy under the British Constitution ; and we pray for grace to use them for the gloiy of Thy great Name, and faitlifiilly to transmit th' \ to the generations following. O Thou by whom Kings riign, and Piinccs decree judgment, we beseech Thee of Thy great m"r(y to bless our rightful and beloved Sovereign Queen VicToniA. We tlwnk Thee who hast abundantly prospered her reign, and hast spared her for many years to be the Mother of her people. Continue to her Tliy favour and strength, surround her throne with wise and faithful counsellors, sjiare Thou her life, and bless her with health, that she may long rule over loyal subjects ; and grant that having faithfully accomplished Thy will on earth, she may at length receive the crown of glory that fadeth not away. We beseech Thee, O Lord, to blcs^also with Thy favourALiiKUTEi)WAr.D, Prince of Walec, the Princess of Wales, and all the members of the Royal House. Grant to them Thy help, that by a truly Christian life, they may adorn the high stite and dignity to which Tliy Providence hath raised them. Ever more, Lord, guide them with Thy counsel, ujdiold them with Thy might, and cheer them with Thy love. And now, Lord our Father, Author of all happiness, we seek Thy special blessing upon the Princess Louisa and the Marquis of Lome, who have been this day joined to- gctlicr ill maniage, nccoidiiig to Tliy Holy Ordinance. EariiCHtly, nnd in the nume of (Jhriat, we entreat Thee whoju favour is tlic liappincBK of every condition, and whoso love Kwcetcncth every relation, to be the portion of these Thy servants, nnd to own nnd nccept them in Jesus their Saviour and Lord. As Tliou hast brought them together liy Tliy rrovidcnce, wo pray Thee fanctlfy them by Thy Holy ISpi;:t. tiivethem a frame of heart suitable to their new estate, and enrich them with all graces whereby, us becometh Christians, they may perform the duties, enjoy the comforts, un- dergo the cares, and resist the temptations which pcrtiiin to the marriage relation. O (iod, be morciftd to them, and bless them, and cause thy face to shine npon them, from this day forth, nnd even for evermore. Grant also, we pray thee, O God, that this Union, so auspiciouslj' formed, may strengthen and make lasting the aft'ection and regard which subsist between Her Majesty's family nnd the people of this realm; and may there never -be wanting a member of the Roynl House to sit xipon the British Throne. O Lord, our God, who ordercst the bounds of nations, nnd controllest their destinies, we beseech Thee to vouclisafo Thy help and guidance to Thy servant the Governor-Gen- eral of this Dominion, and to all that arc in authority under Iiim in the several Provinces. Jilesstho Parliament of Canada at this time assemble!!, nu't grant that all that is doe, whether by the Legislative or tlio Kxe- cutive authovities, may tend to the Imppini.'ss nnd prosperity of this land, and above all to that national righteousness which alone e.xniteth a people. We pray at this tinje, nNo, Lord, for the whole estate of Christ's Church. BIcsh and make joyful her people, and clothe with righteousness her ministers, that so the Word of the Lord may have free course, and be glorified. Let the people praise Thee, O Goo ; let all tlie people praise Thee. Then shall the eartli yield her increase, and God, even our own God sliall bless us ; God shall bless us ; and all the ends of the earth shall fear Him. These blessings and all othcis, needed for the Church, for the Itcalm, and for tlu? world, we humbly seek in and throtigh our Saviour and Intercessor Jesus Christ, to whom, with Thee and with the Holy Ghost, be ascribed all glory, and might, and ma- jesty, and dominion, and power, world with- out end. — Amkn. The Choir then sang the National Anthem, and the benediction having been pronounced by the Ilev. C. A. Doudict, the large congre- gation separated, the service, though lastin:; altogether little more than half an hour, having been nn exceedingly solemn and profitable one. Many prominent clergymen of Montreal were in the congregation, as well as a large number of leading citi/cona of all cliurches. MEETING IN ST. ANDREW'S HOME. A met till,.; of tlie oftiec-bean rs and mcm- birs ol' the SI. Andrew's and Caledonian Socie- ties, for the purpose of passing resolutions of congratulation relative to the marriage of Her Royal Highness the Princess Louisa with the Marquis of Lome, was held in the St. An- drew's Home, at eight o'clock p.m., when tlie room was completely filled. On tlie motion of Mr. J. C. Becket, past J'resident. Mr. Alexander McGibbon, 1st Vice-President of St, Andrew's Society, was called to the chair, nnd Mr. James Kiddell, Secretary of that Society, officiated as Secre- tary to the meeting. A letter of apology was read from the Rev. II. Campbell, of St. Gabriel's Church, regret- ling that a previous engagement prevented lii< being present on the interesting occasion. The CiiAiiiMA\ exiileiiad (bat the ineeiir.g was called by the olHcers of the St. Andrews and Caledonian Societies to express tlieii satisfaction at the union of the Marquis of Lome with the Princess Louisa. He had in his hand several resolutions which had been jircpared, and would be moved and seconded by speakers who would, no doubt, do amjile justice to the subjects of the resolutions. Ho called upon the Rev. Dr. Taylor, of Erskin.! Church, to move the first resolution. Rev. Dr. Tavi.or said lie had the honor to move the following resolution : Tlio ofllcc-honrers end members of llic SI. .\n- drew's Society, ami or the Caletlonlun Soeiety of Montreal, now a.ssrm'oled, In common Willi nil their loyal fd'ow-suliioots of otlior nationalities la all parts of the world, take ploasuiv in em- bracing every opporteolty to evince tlielr loyally - ) iiiicl iliiuriil iiil(ii-<l ill llii>v> (Mills wlilcli por- soiiivlly coiiffni II Sloimicli ko Justly rcvprwl anil Ih'IovoiI iiM Is liucoii Vlotorlii.

He was Rlod the two Societies had called tlie meeting to express their sentiments at the ftuspicious event which had taken place that day. That day Her Majesty had ,'iven (lie hand of one of her dauKhters in marriage to ft noble scion ot a noble house. Siicli an event had not occurred in English history for centurieH. He thought it was quite con- sistent witli propriety for the societies to meet to express their loyal sentiments. If anyone at a meeting of a society gave eNpression to disloyal sentiments, and if such society did not repudiate those disloyal scnti- mcuts, then the society would he as ilisloj'ttl ns the utterances. Tlicy had all, as Kcotchmen, regarded the course of (^ueen Victoria with thanlis to Almighty (iod, and witli feelings of ardent attach- ment to her person. Her act in giving the hand of her royal daughter to a noble Scotchman broke through an old precedent, but it showed the wi.sdom of the Queen, and her superiority t3 Ro}-al highness. The speaker referred to the military and ecclesi- astical history of the Argyll family. They had scattered terror among their enemies and .vulTorcd martyrdom for Christianity. The Ar- gyll family wasawealthy one, quite as much si) as any of the Gcrumn I'riucclets to whom members of the Ro}-al Family had in former days l)ceu allied. The <iucen liad taken a step that would draw her nearer r.nd make her dearer to her peopic. She was wise in setting I'arliamen- tavy enactment aside and letting nature take its course. He did not believe in young lieople's all'ections being regulated by Parlia- mentary laws. Ho was glad to see that there was a jirospect of another daughter of the Queen's being allied to the Marquis of ICly, an Irishman. If such a marriage was arranged, it would be bailed with joy by the whole nation. He was sorry that there would not be another daughter left to marry an Englishman, but if the (^lecn had not daughters, she had sons, and one or all of them might marry one of their peer- less countrywomen. He referred in glowing terms to the visit of Prince Arthur to Mon- treal, and it might be that, if His Royal Highness did not choose one of his own countrywomen for a partner, he might take a Canadian lass from this Canada of ours, and there were lasses in Canada that were well qualified to grace the Halls of a Itoyal Court. The speaker concluded by express- ing his heart-felt desire for the happiness of the newly-united couple, Mr. Thomas Symington, first Vice-Prcsi- dent of tho Caledonian Society, in a few ap- propriate remarks, seconded the resolution, which was unanimously carried. The Itev. (lavin I.ang, of St. Andrews Church, moved the following resolution : Tlip inemhprs ol' tho Hoolptlps now a-sspnihled have llie utmost satlsliullon, as Scotsmen, In expiesslng their iwculliir and licarll'elt liitprpst In tlip auspicious ITnlon this day solpiniiixcd be- tween Hpr Koyal IIlKhnpss the PrlnoosN Ix>ul.sa.

He thought tho resolution particularly referied to the relation the marriage bore to their country. He had not long left Scotland,and his feelings in regard to that country were yet quite fresh. He could therefore very easily picture the rejoicings in Glasgow, Edinburgh, Aberdeen, Stirling, and other places, but he would not attempt to describe the rejoicings, the extravagant rejoicings, that certainly hail taken place iii the Highlands, and which Mr. McLennan (Chairman of the Charitable Com- mittee of St. Andrew's Society) would be able to tell them something about, and by the way he was astonished to find Mr. JIcLcn- naii present without the bagpipes, A Voice — The pipes are licre. Mr. Laxo begged Mr. McLennau's jiaidon. He was not aware that the pipes were pre- sent. He tliougbi; it was something to be able to say that the Marquis of Loriio was a young man who had come through tlu' temptations and vices so incidental to and un- fortunately too prevalent among aristocratic youth, without contamination. He thought it was something to say that not a whisper could be uttered against the character of the young marquis, and he \/as therefore all the more admired by his country and worthy of his royal bride. The father of the bride- groom, the Duke of Argyle, was a man Scot- land had every re.a.son to be proud of. They <!i(l Will ill ( tiiiiiiij,' tofjctliiT iiH till V dill to j.'ivi?

As Scotchmen, they wislied not all the honors, although often blamed for get- ting a goodly share of them ; yet they should he hfinored in liaving welcomed into the J!oyal Family so illustrious a conntryiDan as the Jlaiquis of Lome. If, as is stu-miscd to I'c, it is the happy lot of the Princess Beatrice to have an Irislimnn in store for her, oiu' con- gratulations would he none tlio less sincere, and shouhi oiu' noblo Arthur of happy memory retinn and claim a Canadian as iiis hride, .diall wo say to him, nay? Certainly not. \\\: shall not oidy let him have his Canadian hride, but with her will go a p iiirl necklai e before which even that of thu Campbell to the Princess Louisa (hand.<omo as it is) must pale. As lovers of our country and our <H»uucn, we w'sh her and her family all long lite, happiness and prosperity. I believe tlio change in the precedent that has so long re- gulated Royal JIarriages, which Jias this day lieen so happily inaugurated, will, if adhered to, as I trust it will be, tend greativ to tho liappiness of the children of our "beloved gueen, as well as that of many of our fnturo Itoyal family. The resolution was then put and enthu- siastically carried. Tho Rev. Dr. Rinx.s, of Cote Street Church, moved tho following resolution: Tho nipptln? resolve tint a loval nnil diitlrnl iWlih-ess, si^^ned hy tho ('halrniiiii, cnibDih iii'' their sentiinent,-, ))o (ir.'sciile.l Id Iler .Mii|eslv, to hp triiiisiuitt(Ml thioimh Ills Kxeellciu-v the (io-.eriior (ieneriil of the D.iminioii— u!so' lliiit. eonsratiilalory addres-es he at the same time (lesratehed to the happy ))alr and to their (iiiiees the Duke and iJuchess of Argyll. IIu said ho con.sidercd tho resolution as a business one. What had been said previous- ly had hem wi 11 saiil, and he heartily on- dorNi'd every word epoken. Hi; had been visiting till six o'clock, and after that hour, on his return home, he had taken up a book and foinid in it tiie following bi aiilifiil |)iece of poetry,whi<h he thought was not only very appropriate, but would express tin ir .senti- ments : I saw tw.ie'o'Kis 111 moriilnr, Tlii'/ed hy llie i InIhx sun, And In llii'iirtwii they llontcd on .\ii I iiiliiuli'd lMt<i one.

Sin h are our sentimcntg and feelings with reference to these two young hearts which to-tlay have lloated into one within the .state- ly halls of Windsor, liright ever bo their sky; strewn with llowers bo their jiath, and may their path be that of the shining light that shineth more and more unto thj perfect day. AN'ith reference to the union founded not on policy hut on affection ; the ofl'spring not of State law, but of heart love ; tho re- sult imt of diplomatic coercion, mercenary compact, or political necessity, but of mutmil acipiaintance and sineero attachment, tho liappiest hopes nuiy be entertained. With but one emotion do tho chords of all lo3-al Canadian hearts vibrato to-day. Let us transmit tho vibration. Long may this happy pair live and love togethor. Distant be the day when tho ties so linn and tender that have been so auspiciously ce- mented, will bo suiulered ! To tho parents of tho noble bridegroom ht us convey our cordial congratulations. This Royal maiden lias boon wedded to the worthy son of worthy sires. His mother, one of tin; fairest of England's daughters, the daugh- ter of one of tho most amiable and ac- complished of British Dukes, and of one who shone as a bright particular star at tho Eng- lish Court. But it is on the ancestral glories of Macnllum More wo sjiecially love to di- late. Argyll is a grand historic nauie. ^'When will its glory fade ?" Pinkerton tra- ces up the Campbells to Campo Bello, a Nor- man Knight who followrd William tho Conqueror to England. But the present Duke is not conceited on tliis point, but prefers, in opposition to Pinkerton, to traco tlio origin of tint rmuiiy naiiK- to Cant (wry) end /{hud (luck) niittnlnx wry or crooked neck. No matter, however, whethcn- they were ever crooked necked or not, they had evidently Kot Htraight again, and uinonK tlie BtraiglteHt of tliein was the jireHcnt MarqniBof Lor.io. The Hpeaker then n»entiom'd,ne vreral illustrloUH nieniherR of tlio family wno ha<l warred for their conntry and HUfl'ercd martyrdom for their religion, and with Rju'ciiil reference to the tenor of tlie ro- xolntiou Raid ; Onr heloved Sovereign we mention last, certainly not least — hut this was done rather to emphasize m\r loyalty and love towards the bcot monarch that ever wielded a sceptre or wore a crown. Ten years ago, we woj)t with her who wept. We were not slow to transmit our tcnderest sym- pathy, for our widowed Queen wlien she be- wailed the removal of one who formed the most beautiful incarnation of wliatsoever things are true, honest, lovely and of good report. And now it becomes us to rejoice with her who docs rejoice and to express in the strongest manner our undying attachment to hor person, family and Government. All the more unmistakeabl'-, because that recently a Priestly Fenian here had the hardihood to ventilate his treasonable senti- ments amongst us — sentiments with which the better class of the Society he addressed surely cannot agree, and ought publicly to dis- claim. It behoves us as loyal subjects to avail ourselves of an occasion like the present to proclaim our pride in being connected with iin Empire on which the sun never sets, which sitH as a Queen within her Islancl Home, tlie Pharos of light — the asylum of liberty and the mild though unflinching arbiter of the world's destinies. With refer- ence fo all such frothy decluimers, and the insolent and insidious ])lottingH of .such like, let u.s ring out with no uncertain sound the old ch'ar note : ••I'liiifounil their |iolltlcn— I'ru^triit;' tlielr kiuivlsh IrlcUs on llicc our lii'iirt we fix (i(Kl save the Ciueen." .Mr. A. A. STEVEN.SON, past President of the Caledonian Society, on rising to second the resolution, remarked that ho was not in the unfortunate position of a previous speaker, who complained of " the wind being taken ont of his sails," as he (Mr. S.) had not any idea of being called upon to speak, and therefore had not set any sail to catch the wind, but in the absence of the Rev. Mr. Campbell, he could not refuse to comply with the request of the chairman, although in seconding the resolution, he would make only one or two remarks. He then alluded to the manner in which the marriage of the I'rinces.H LoiiUit with the Maniuls of Lome, had 1 in cele- brated in the city of Montreal, and spoke most approvingly both of the npiironriate service In St. Andrew's tlhurch, and the equally 'appropriate proceedings at the meeting in St. An(!rcw'« Homo Although the Montreal demonstration had nothing of t!ie boisterous enthusiasm which usually characterizes similar occasions, yet ho had no dotd)t that when the report of the part which this good loyal city of Montreal had performed, was known on the other side <if the Atlantic, it would be found to be as ac- ceptable to the parties concerned as more formidable displays made in other places. It had often been said that the royal family had a f;reat partiality for everything Scotch ; certainly the event to-day seemed to indicate at any rate that Her Itoyal High- ness had some acquaintance with the writ- ings of our great national poet, llobert Burns, and had wisely taken the advice conveyed in that verse, wherein he so prophetically sings or says : " Yo, lastly, bniuiti' Itlossonis ii,' An' Itoyiil lassies dainty Ileiivon niak' yo gntd n» wed us liraw, An' send ye lads In plenty. I!ut diinia KDccr at llrltlHli IhUh, Kor Kilixs are unco seaiit, aye, An' (iernian eeiitles are l-ut sina' They're hetterjlst than want aye ( m ony <lay." To Scotchmen, the marriage of the Mar- quis of Lome had a peculiar significance, and it would also awaken in the minds of Kng- lishmcn and Irishmen too, an interest in the fate and fortune of one of our most renowned Scottish families. Heretofore, a certjiin re- ference to the head of that noble House had been so often repeated, that it had long ago passed into a proverb, and although sarcasti- cally uttered in the form of a blessing or benediction, not always intended to be agree- able to our countrymen, yet after the pro- ceedings of to-day, he hoped Knglishmen and Irishmen would unite with Scotchmen in breathing, not snceringly but most sin- cerely, the heartfelt prayer — "(ion Pi.kss tiih Duke or Aroylk.'' The resolution was tlien put and carrici* amid loud checr.s. A hearty vote of thanks was tend(re<l to the Chairman, after which the members of the Calcdoniar Society entert-iined the meet- ing to coffee and cakes, the piper of the Caledonian Society meanwhile furnishing well-e.xecuted music. The meeting was remarkably ple.isant, and the expressions of loyalty and affection to the lioyal Family and Institutions of the country were rt'cclvcil with tlio ^''''ft'*'''' •'•• ttnmiaHm.
