Eee : ‘ Action of the Momphis Convention. é . Quxisec, ceedings im the Howse of Assembly—Ceremonial at a Prorogation—Beresford Divorce Bill—Gov- ernor General's Speech—Allusion to the Riots— Action of the Legislature on the Subject—Testi- monials to Sergeant Lawson, who aided Gavazzi —Description of his Assailants, and their Le- cality—Approaching Orange Celebration. The Legislature was prorogued yesteday, having been in cession during a protracted period of seven months, from August last, with the exception of an adjournment from November till February. The Governor General came down in the usual state, and was received by a guard of honor from the Sixty. Sixth Regiment, with presented arms, the band playing the national air, and a salute being fired by & detachment of the Royal Artillery stationed in Durham terrace. There was also a full attendance of the police. i ‘The scene in the House of Assembly, during the evening preceding the prorogation, and on that day, until the arrival of the Governor General at the Par- liament building, was equal, for confusion, to any- thing Ihave witnessed at the close ofa session at Washington ; Messrs. Brown and McKenzie, pretty much occupying the time of the House, in opposing what they considered, and not without cause, a wasteful and extravagant expenditure of the public money, at a time when it has been found necessary to borrow an additional $600,000 to meet the esti- mates for the current year, notwithstanding the rapidly increasing provincial revenue ; and who, by speaking against time, ultimately succeeded in pre- venting the passing of resolutions for increasing the salaries of a number of public officers. When the house was summoned to the Legisla- tive Council Chamber, 1 followed, and had a good opportunity of witnessing the ceremony observed at & prorogation. At the head of the Chamber, ina recess, and on what is called the throne, was seated the Governor General, in full uniform, with silver epavlettes and aiguillette, and wearing a chappau- bras, with splendid plume, wh» remained covered while the Speaker and members were in attendance at the bar, temporarily removing it when com- mencing his address to both houses. At the foot of @ long table stood two clerks, ope of whom read the titles of the bills to which his Excellency gave his assent. Each bill was then banded to the clerk of the Legislative Council, also wearing a black gown, with a chappeau-bras under his arm, who, turning towards the bar, stated,in English and French, that, in the name of her Majesty, the Governor General ave his assent to the bull, which he held up to pub- ic view. When all the bills on the table—one hundred and fifteen in number—had thus been disposed of, the Speaker addressed his Excellency at considerable length, and concluded by submitting for his assent the bill granting the dior for the mt year; in reply to which, the clerk, after bowing to the Go- vernor General, stated that, ‘‘in the name of the Queen, his Excellency thanked her Majesty’s dutiful and loyal subjects, accepted their benevolence, and assented to the bill.” Among those the titles of which were read by the clerk, was that for the relief of William Henry Berestord, which, it will be recollect- ed by the readers of the Herap, granted a divorce, which was reserved tor the Queen’s pleasure thereon. After the royal assent bad been given to the Supply bill, the Governor General made a short speech, in which he thanked the members of both branches of the Legislature for the care and attention which they had bestowed upon the important subjects that had been brought under their consideration; trusted that the province would be benefitted, and its moral and mental interests promoted, by the measures which they had adopted, and expressed the hope that eulargiug the represen- tation would “ have the effect of imparting greater weight to the deliberations of the Leyislature,and in- creased stability to the institutions of the province.” He alluded, however, to the recent disturbances in the fellowing manner:— The tranquility,” said his Excellency, * which has tor some time pst prevailed in the province, and which ha proved, in so remark- able @ degree, so condusive to its progress, and to the establishment of its credit, has been, I regret to say, momentarily interrupted at Quebec and Mon- treal, by distugbances originating in religious con- troversy, aud atiended in oue instance by very la- mentable consequences. I have reason to believe that these occurrences, which are a scandal to the religion that we profess, are deeply deplored by the great majority of the inhabitants of the province, of all denominations and that the authorities will be fully supported in adopting such measures as may be necessary to prevent their recurrence.” The members of the Assembly, with their Speaker, then retired ; and the Governor General soon after left the building, under a salute and with the same mili compliments as on arriving, and was cheered by the spectators, as the coach leer them. It may be as well to stute that since the occurren- ces to which allusion has been made, a bill has been ieee making the cities of Quebec and Montreal jable for any destruction of property, caused by popular violence, which will render it the interest of the more intiuential classes of each community to aid in preserving the public peace. The measure, however, was probably the result of an address to the Governor Geueral, signed by a large number of Protestauts, which was presented to his Excellency last week ; who in bis reply to the deputation, sta- ted that if Champlain and Jacques Cartier were to arise from their tombs, they would conceive that the country is inhabited by greater savages than they found here. On Saturday last a very inter ing ceremonp took place at the boarding house of several of the mem- bers of the Legislature, those of whom who had wit- nessed the proceedings at the church in which Signor Gavazzi was attacked, baving raised a contribution for the purpose ot testifying their approval of the conduct of Serjeant Law-on. ef the Royal Artillery, who bad exerted himrelf on that occasion in the cause of humanity and order. A number of the sub- scribers had assembled on this occasion to present Sergeant Lawson with a gold watch and chain and a large family Bible—the meaning of which portion of the donation will be easily understood. These were delivered to the sergeant by the Hon. Mr. Boul- ton, of the Legislutive Council, with an appropriate address, which was replied to in suituble terms. “I shall never, whilst memory serves me,” said the brave soldier, in conclusion, “forget this your kind- ness and great liberality, and I trast that should any such affair again haypen—which God forbid—many | will, from the remembrance of this notice of my feeble efforts, be forward to the reseue of lite. This book I prize, and shall hold sacred for its character, as “the Word of God, which liveth and abideth for- evel casion. Gentlemen, accept my heartfelt gratitude.” The watch and Bible have the following inscrip- tion: —"' Presented by members of the Parliament of Camda, to Sergeant W. A. Lawson, R. A., the brave defender of Padre Gavazzi, at the riot at Chalmer’s Church.—Quebec, June 6, 1853." * Sergeant Lawson was attended by four of his bro- ther non-commissioned officers, of the same corps, * and as the remembrancer of the present oc- | anda similar number of his superior officers were | also present on the occasion. _ P T have read Signor Gavazzi’s letter, giving an ac- count of the occurrence at Quebec, which appeared in the Heraup of Saturday, whose description of his aseaiiante, I understand, is perfectly correct. It was the same class of persons who attacked the church at Mortreal; but it is worthy of remark, that while sticks and stones were used at Quebec, firearms and dirks were the weapons resorted to at Montreal. Previous to my leaving that city, on Saturday even- ing, I heard it stated to the foreman of the Coroner's Jury, that two gentlemen, whose names were given him, that the =e be summoned, saw nearly two hundred of the Irish population of (riffintown’ load- ing p'stols in the afternoon preceding the attack of ‘Thursday. The question naturally arises—and its investigation may lead to important results, having a bearing upon the occurrence—‘ By whom were these weapons furnished 7” For the intormation of persons who are unacqaint- ed with Montreal, it may be proper to state that Griffintown forms that portion of the suburbs of Montreal which is in the vicinity of the Lachine canal, and tha. a numerous portion of its inhabitants are Irish laborers, many of whom were employed on that public work, and who are remarkable for their lawless and insubordinate conduct. On the night of @ person was severely beaten in that place, ome; on the following evening another ‘was shot at and mortally wounded, in the same vici- ity; and it ie stated t one or two others have since been killed. The windows in the Methodist arch, and also that of St. Anne's, at Griffintown, also been broken, affording unmistakeable evi- of the existence of a deep, rooted hostility to- Protestants in the breasts of these miscreants, slightest occasion will call into action, which will be met by an equally impla- on the of the Orangemen of Mon- ce ot Canada.

TEHUANTEPEC RAILROAD. Whereas, The project of opening a communication be- tween the Atlantic and Pacific oceans, by railroad across the isthmus of Liga on 19g recommenda itself to the warm support of the whole Union, and particularly to that of the Western and Southern States, by its great racticability, the facility and cheapness of its conatruc- ion, ax well as the short time required for its completion, thus affording to the commerce and travel not only of the United States, but the world, a cheap and easy access to the Pacific coast Resolved, therefore, That our reprecentatives in Con- gress be requested to press upon the govérnament the ne- cestity of bringing to a favorable termination, as soon a5 possible, the negotiations pending in regard to the right of way across eaid isthmus. and that they be also in- structed to maintain by all legitimate, constitutional means, the rights of American citizens in the grants i made by the Mexican government.

Resolved, That amoogst the most important measures necessary to the success of our educational intererts, is the establishment by the several South and Southwestern States of bigh rormal schools for the free admission of such persons, both male and female, as may wish to de vote themselves to the profession of teaching within their borders; and we most res;ectfully urge this sub tures of the seid States. HYDROSTATIC GAUGES ON THE MISSISSIPPI. Whereas, The investigation of the laws which regulate the rive and fall of the Miseissippi river sud its tributa- ries, and the doption of some system by which the great valley of the Mirsissippi may be protected from inund:+ tion, and the navigation of the Western waters be best perfected and secured, are subjects of tbe deepest inte- rest and importance to the whole western aad southern coupiry, therefore, Rerolved, That this convention respectfully recommend to Congress, that among the mesoures calculated to ad vance above objects, avd facilitate the schemes al ready urdertahen, it deems highly important that the gepersl government should appoint a special corps of scientific ergineers to investigate the laws which go yern the Mississippi river and its tributaries, to devise the best means of improving the navigation of these rivers, and of protectirg their lands from overflow if rece+sary to send abroad a similar corps of sc’entific en- givters to evamine the systems of improvement adopted in other ccuntries, and to report upon all matters con nected with there subject Resolved, That in furtherance of the objects sought, we decm it highly important that a system of hydro: metric gauges should be established by the general go yerrment at several points along the Mirsissippi and its tribuaries, at the principal towns and cities, by which the actual stages of their water may be accurately ascer- tained from day to day, the depths of their channels regularly sourded, avd the ebanges going on uyon their barks be marked and recorded. all which shall be re- ported to the proper department of the general govern- ment from time to time.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE HERALD. ‘There appearing to be a vast difference of opinion as to which engine threw the highest stream in the trial be- tween the Mechanical Kogine, of Baltimore. and No. 42 Engine, of New York, at the fire at the American Hotel on Thursday last permit me to state, through the col- umpsof your psper,a true version of the trial, bea totally urconcerned in this affair, but highly interes in the well-earned merita of the New York firemen. ‘The facts are these :— The Mechanical attached what ia called a gallery stream, the man with the pipe standing on the top of the condensing case; the pipes being screwed on, elevates the nozzle about twenty one feet from the ground, On ex- amtzing the pipe myself, I found they played through a seveneighths of an inch nozzle, throwing water to the top of the flag-staif on the hotel.” 42 Engine was labor- ing under a great disadvantage as to . the main brace supporting the lever, and the being broken.

The papers having published ap account of the trial, have not done either company justice.
