I An effort is being made by local military men to induce Lieut.-Col. J. Pennington Macpherson. of Ottawa, to deliver in this city. his illu.-tmted lecture. The War of I812-l5.

The illustrations of battle scenes, mnmhes. camps, bivouacs, etc., are very realistic and serve to bring the specta- tors into intimstesympathy with the sturdy patriots of Canada And the gallant and de- voted soldiery of the motherland. It is probable that the lecture will. if the negotiations prove euccoasful, be given here on May 5th. vurucx. ior ueienanur. with costs. The case of Canadian locomotive works V3.1}.
