Our readers will remember that during the early part of the present year some cor- respondence sppeared in the rpectator hav- ing reference to the Excise Department, and to the conduct of Mr Brunel, the As- sistant. Commissioner and Inspector of In- land Revenue. In that correspondence it was suggested that the motive of Mr Bru- nel`s conduct was to be found in the fact that he made money out of seizures. Mr Bruncl was very indignant at this suggestion, and addressed to us a letter in `which 1... mmnu vvua vcly nuuiguuuu BIZ [HIS 8UggSUOD, l1l)(| letter in which be totally denied the soft impeachment, asking per- mission to state: . 1st..-That I have not received, directly or indirectly, any portion of the proceeds of any seizure made by me or by any per- son since I was appointed to my present oice.

We fancy those who know Mr Brnnel best will perhaps not feel any great astonishment; but surely the public will inquire whether a. man who is so utterly reckless of the statements he makes is fit to be entrusted with a position such as that which he now occupies. The amount received by this Mr Brnnel is some- thing startling. $7,792,130 in 3 single year to a single oicial-over fty per cent more than a Minister of the Crown receives-is certainly a. nice exhibit. There are nnmn nfhor n.-.:...o. :._ u.:_ ucnmuny B DICE exmmt. There are some other points in this re- turn which are suggestive 0'!` the way the money goes. We may take occasion to re- fer to them at some other time. This in the meantime it is right to say, that there is an evident awakening to the impropriety of this kind of thing at headquarters, and that the years 1868-69 exhibit fewer cases of sp-`cill geivices paid for than did the preceding yea.r.-Hamilton Spectator. uauuo We are afraid, when certain matters be- come known in relation to the Prince's visit, that outsiders will set us down as a set. of vultures, or even worse. The fact that ve dollars an hour was charged by cabdrivers here during the exhibition is a small matter compared with the account furnished lor boarding and lodging the Prince and suite during their brief stay. The bill, as rendered to the _Board of Agriculture, in-detail, presents one of the most glaring instances of .extortion on re- cord. Only imagine a total sum of two thousand ts hundred dollars being charged the association for entertaining the -royal guest for a term of about two days and a half. The whole thing is outrage- ous, and we cannot wonder at the action ol the Board in reducing it to a gure less than half the amount-onc thousand dol- lars-which was considered more than amply suicient to liquidate all expenses. In fact, many aver that ve hundred dollars would have done the thing handsomely. This, we think, is nearer the mark,judging from the charges made by Mr Derby, 01 the Tecumseh, for accommodating the Gov- ernor-General and lady, the Lieutenant- Governor and lady, Sir John A. Macd o- nald, and the -Govcrnor a attaches, which did not exceed the latter sum named. We opine, on the next occasion of a prince s visit, that greater caution will be manifest- ed as to where the guest is to be lodged, and who shall be his caterer. We think the authorities more immediately interest- ed will have by this time learned a_ lesson that they will profit b . We have examin- ed the account sent in by Mr Glackmeyer, and feel perfectly disgusted at some of the charges. Imagine an item of $120 for dry goods; $40 for beer; $160 for horse hire; $100 for the use of a carriage in which the Prince rode, with 8150 additional in another item, and this, after representations were made to the board that the Prinos s carriage and horses would be furnished free ; then there is likewise a claim of some $800 for emissions, use of house, &c.. with other outrageous charges of a like nature too numerous to mention. Is it any wonder that the Board kicked ? The bill as it stands, is worthy of being preserved for future reference, or as a memento of the visit of-Prince Arthur to London. As a proofof the exorbitant ' charges, we may state that Mr Glackmeyer consented to ac- cept $1.000 in sattlnmnnt hm lb:-.-a.J_ ALDERMAN GLACKMEYER S LITTLE .

A literary undertaking of not extent ha been projected by A society of stunts in Paris, having for its object the reproduction of all the masterpieces of litersture which have sppssred in ancient And modern times.

The works reprinted are to be in the best French transla- tions, and are to appear on a prescribed plan, in order to show how primitive ideas have been` developed into orgsnized forms, and how these have undergone transformations and produced reactions upon spheres beyond their own. The French Government he recognized the import- anee of the work, said has approved of its publi- cation, and many eminent men have promised their co-operation.

L.-. ..-.-_:.._ :._ V The Montreal Gazette, in dealing with Ir White's strictures on the incfciency oi ahe immigration department at Ottawa, is iorccd to admit that down to the con- ference of l868`(cw tliinga about the gov- ernment could have been worse. But it considers that it is unfair to throw all the blame fur past shortcomings on Xeaara Chapais and Tache. It so hap- pena, however, that all the specic gharges `which Mr White brings for- ward relate to the period in which Xeaars Chapais and Tachc have had a lmponsible direction of aairs, and these charges relate to positive mistakes and in- artneu ior which they alone, if anybody, are to blame. The Gazette asserts that their hands have been tied by Parliament and by the cheese-paring economy in which the Home of Commons committee concurred . It is true that the House of Commons has voted a smaller amount of money for immi- gration services than is compatible with liberal encouragement ; but as pointed out - by It White, the House in June last di- noted the publication in the United King- dam of the report of its own committee, which. instead oi hcing got on! rapidly, in , time to inuence the summer season of emi- gration in England, has only just made its appearance at the ciosc ofseptcmber. Some l of Ir White`: charges appear to be altogether nnanswerahle, and it is presum- ably because of their great cl-Lt that the V ocera of the department are desirous of being screened from the rising indignation of the public. Even the Granite, while seek- ing to shield them, is compelled to stimulate them to greater energy and cicicncy. It -.... -.vJ ... naubnuvulo uu vuv Jllllltlln Ifcm.

PBINCI A31-nun`: Movun:x1's.-Prince Ar- thur arrived at Port Ryerse on board the steamer Washoe on Friday morning. There was another demonstration when the party reached Simcoe_ At Waterford, on the road to Brantford, a bevy of young ladies presented the Prince with nu- merous bouquets. At the Mohawk village some novel proceedings took place. The Prince was led to the old Mohawk church on the Indian re- serve with the intention of making him a Mo- hawk chief. He was received by Sinco Kerr, one of *he cliiefs of the Six Nations, and a do` scendanlt of Brant. The chiefs and warriors welcomed him with a deafening cheer, and His Royal Highness shook hnnds warmly with the Indians and their wives, who `presented the Prince with Indian trinkets. A photograph was taken of the Governor General, the Prin :0, and a number of warriors in full ghting cos. tnme, views of the tomb of Brant, of the church, and of Indian groups, were also taken by the . Prince s command. The ceremony of induction was performed in the church, an old Indian den iiveging the speech in native tongue, which was interpreted by Chief Johnston. The name can. ferred on the Prince as a chief of the nations was- Flying Bun - in the Indian language, Kavakoudge. A war dance in front of the Institute followed, and the Prince was led for- ward and back twice, during which the assent of the braves was asked for his acceptance- The Prince was then invested with a handsome woolen scarf.

It is expectedthat this un- dertaking will lead to the conquest of ex- tensive territories for the Viceroy. Sir Samuel has received the title of Bey, and has arranged to remain for four years in the Egyptian service. Some of the best troops in Soudan have been placed under his command. and hostile operations are expected to take place in the country of the Bari tribe, which has refused to recog- nize tha rule of the Egyptians. The Egyptian government has not . spared any expense in tting out the expedition, and five iron river steamers are expected from England. Not less than 25,000 have al- ready been spent in the preliminary_ar- rangemenxs, but it is thought probable that the sum may be recovered during the year : operations. In... .. ...uu-uuun.
