Quansc, August 10, 1865. + The Logistature yesterday may be said to have fairly yeombarked upon the heavy work of the session. After § Houso had been formally opened, Mr. McGill, of milton, moved resolutions in answer to the speech from the throne. js SOFT SAWDER FOR AMERICA, Daring his speech, Mr. McGill took occasion to pay & compliment to the valor of American troops, and dwelt mm the grandeur appertaining to a contest such as that ‘ly brought to a close in America, which, he declared, for great and noble principles. He congratulated country upon the successful and gratifying termina- of the war, and devoutly hoped that the people of e United States, who were ‘flesh of our flesh and bone our bone,’’ would meet them half ‘towards foster. en #epirit of eternal good will and nity. 4 ° 4 The fact that his referonce to American affairs was tod arith ‘the ‘hear, ‘hear’ yo peculiat to British poli- Weians when they endorse the sentiments of a speaker, : plainly showed that in the Legislature at least there is a - | qgheong sontiment in favor of the North. . Thiy sentiment, + faewover, I observed, was confined to tho Eaglish mom- ”. $eeca, the Frozich maintaining a dignified silengo. | Tt leaked outein the debate which followed; that we » Ministry, at the convening of last session, when they +, G@ermed.-the present coalition compact, pledged them- ‘Petves to do'their utmost to effect a general confedera- fron of tho British possessions on this continent, failing fin which thoy would submit a measure for the confedera- qtion of the Canadas, and such other provinces as could ‘be provaited on to come under the Union. Nothwithstand- fing their pledges, yesterday the government announced that they would defer the federation echeme until next Persion, and were not prepared to enter into the lesser je of union. This announcement fell upon the achem ‘House like # hot shot, and created intense excitement. DENONCUTION OF TUE GOVERNMENT. Mr, the great party leader of the opposition, ook to utter a withering rebuke to minis- ters, di that they had violated their promises, ‘were on the sul and afraid to squarcly ‘moot the issue of confederation. He flercely denounced tho ministry for introducing a Premier into the govern- ‘ment who never was elected to a seat, and was over- whelmingly defeated the only time he offered himsolf for <@lection. SHIREING THEIR DIPFICCLTIES. So. it seems the governmont, in throwing over the -@uostion of confederation for another sessic will also @turk the question of defence. There is a policy in this. Ministers know well that the confederation scheme hes with such stro opposition from the maritime pro- ‘vinces that the pe: of Canada aro not pi to ‘force it upon them ; and further, thatghey hav idediy exhil 2 ; ited their hostility to the ion to tax the country for useless defences; hence, their determination to stave off the question at issue until another session -@omes round.

The funeral ceremonies of the Right Rev. Alonzo Pot- ter, late Bishop of the Diocese of Pennsylvania, ‘were held yesterday afternoon at Christ church, Second street, above Market. Bishop Pottor was born {fn Beekman (now Tacrange), N. ¥., on the 10th day of July, in the year 1900. He graduated at Union College, Schenectady, N. Y., in 1818, with distinguished honor, and was imme- diately electea tutor in that college. In 1821 he was elected Profeasor of Mathematics and Natural Philosophy, Dut remained in that position but a short time. He re- tired therefrom with a view of pursuing his theological studies. He was ordained a deacon in April, 1821, anda riest in 1824 - He became rector of St. Paul’s church, 0, in 1826, and remained there until 1831, when ho returned to Union College in the,capacity of Professor of Philosophy and Vice-President of the College. The de- ytd D. D. was conferred upon him i, larvard and janbieg colleges, and L.L. D. by Union College, in 1846. On the 23d day of September, 1845, he was consecrated of Pennsyttenta, aa successopof Bishop Onderdonk, at Christ church, which position he occupied at the time of his death. During the twenty years that Bishop Pot- ‘tor hrs held official station in this diocese ho has identi- fied his name with many of the benevolent. institutions of the city. Among those which he was most active in founding and carrying on successfully are the Hospital of the @harch in ladelphia, the “‘Clergy Daughter's vinity: School’ and ‘The Iastitution as Mechanic 1? was publ in 1641, end “Political Ecoaomy; &o.,” inthe same year, In Ite 1844 he published a ular work called ‘The School and Schoolmaster.’ In he prepared ‘The Handbook for Readers and Students.” Asa preacher, Bis! Potter was grave, thoughtful and instructive, without a! tion of fine rhetoric; his style.was pure, simplo and terse. One was more impressed with the force and truth of his. remarks shan, the splendor of the | man, Ta tl years of his Episcopate, he delivered in the city Boston, before the Towel Institute, in the prosence of ese. delighted assemblies, a series of lectures on be aral Religion and Christian Evidences,"’ which as- tonished and delighted his hearers by their depth of thought, their beauty and force of Illustration, and their felicity of expresston; tho more so as he came to the speaker's stand without-a note of any kind. During his occupancy of the office of Bishop of this State he made many warm friends by the courtesy of his mauner and the enlarged Christian charity which was ever his char- acteristic. His devotion to his broke down his ee es was not naturally robust, and his visit to the ific coast was intended to recuperate his exhausted energies, His friends had much hope in the beginning of the voyage that his health would be en- tirely restored, but at Panama he was seized with the fever of hoses peng which resulted in his death.

At the Propér ‘time Sergeant Webb was released from durance, and not till then did Wiseman com end the fatal trap into which he had been so shrewdly decoved.
