A Tottor from the Ohalrmanof tho Royal Commission to Huntingdon concludos with 8 request for him to furnish to the Commission~ ors & list of tho witnosses ho mA{ wish to ox- amine, and roquests him at the place and time appointed to proceed with e evidenco, Hunt- ingdon's roply mknuw]adguu the receipt _of tho lotter contuming a copy of Commission, Ho calls attontion to tho fact that, as & member of the Houso, from his place in Parliament, he profer- rod olinrges mgainst tho Minlsters ; that the Houso dotormined to invostigato thom itself, and appointod a Committos thorefor ; that to that ommitteo ho hnd given a llet of wit- nossos, sud bofors that tribunal he wag roady to proceed to prove tho oharges. The dofermination of Parliament fo investi- gate tho charges romains unaltered, The con- cludlng portion of his lottor briefly but forci~ bly, and to unprejudicod minds satisfactorily, sots forth tho roasona why ho_refuses to recog- nizo the Royal Commission, Hosays: * I doen it inconeistent with m{ duty a8 & mombor of Parliamont, and » broach of the undoubted priv- ilegos of tho Houso to recognize sny inforior or oxceptional tribunal created to inquire into chnrgos still pending beforo tho Commons. I beliove that f& is & broach of thouo priviloges that the Royal Commission, spocial sanction of tho Houso, should take any cognizance, of or should aesume to call on mo to justify words which I hivo spokon on the floor of tho Commons, and for which I am rosponsiblo to thom and to thom only. I feelthatXshould do no act which may bo construed into an acqulescoticoin the attempt to ramove from the Commons the conduct and control of the inquiry. I believe that the crea- tion of tho Commission involves a breach of that fundamental principle of tho Constitution which Frouurvea to the Commons the right and duty of Initiating and controlling inquirics into high Y‘ouum offensos ; that it involves, also, n breach of that fundamental principle of justico which prevenis the acouded from creatiug tho tribunal and controlling the proced- ure for their trial, aud that it is a Commission without pruedon!,hunknuwn to the common Inw, uvsattioned by tho statute law, providing by 80 oxerciso of prorogativo for an inquiry out of tho ordinary courso of justice into mitdomesnors cognizablo to courts, and consoquently illegal and void.

But the man who built a substantial thoatre in thirty days suppozod he could remodel it in the samo timo, Ho promised to do 8o, and has more than. redeemed that promise, for, in addition to the other improvements, he ,has taken out the old brick front, and supplied its placo with & vory noat wnd appropriate facado of Am- herst atone. Tho evidencos of improvement are mot hefore entoring the house.

The floor is of English tiles, chosen with an evidont considoration of artistio effeot. The box-oflice is duplicated, aud in this respect sdditional finish is given to tho entrauce. ‘The woodwork i of black walnut, veneered in panels, and handsomely polished. Tthe walla aro wain- seoted in the same manner as high as the offico, and the effact is good. The colling ia frescoa with great care and pleasing design, oone summated only by tho most care- ful watching of * the . fresou-palnters.

Tho front was brown stone and brick, sud on the wost side was o carringe entrance leading to o stablo in the rear. The materials of which tho old houso was constructed were of tho very beat, and in a good stato of presorvation, Mr. Holz- dorbor dosired to make his purohase profitablo, and last May decided on transforming tho build- ing into n five-story tonoment house, EVm-k wad begun by eimultancously building tho oxtonsion, and domolishing that part of tho old building roquisito to moet tho proposed changos. eatordsy tho oxtonsion had been built to ~ the third story, and the floor joista wore laid.
