PREPARING FoR THE Ho trtpays.—We no ticed yesterday the opening of a very large and excellent assortment of Fancy Goods and Toys at the ‘‘ Diamond Bookstore,” for the Christmas season.
THE first snow storm of the season passed over the city early this morning. It was ac companied by a violent wind. The streets of the city remained white during the early part of the day.
INFORMATION has been laid against a resident of Dorchester street for selling liquor without license. The informer, it appears, had been drinking in the house and had a row with the proprietor.
To-pay is the anniversary of the Battle of Inkerman. It is also the anniversary of the ““Gunpowder Plot,” by the notori- ous Guy Fawkes, in memory of which the Orange Hall of this city is decked with bunting.
A case of trespass was disposed of by T. DesBrisay, Esq., to-day. it was commenced by Mr. John McKinley against Mrs. Sarah McKinnon and her two daughtera, Sarah and Jane. The defendants were very boisterous foiks, and this kept the Court in an uproar luring the proceedings. They were each tined forty cents and costs for the trespass and a further sum of forty cents for subverting the soil.
Tae Misses LePacr are now conducting a first-class boarding use on the corner of Great George and King streets, in the building heretofore known as the ‘‘ Broad- way House.” This house, being refitted in excellent style, situated in a most con- venient part of the city, and conducted by obliging ladies, is therefore one of the most desirable for permanent boarders. 1m
A DAY or two ago the imprudence of a young man was very nearly productive of serious injury to a respectable family in Que- bec. Being desirous of working a small en gine presented to him by a friend, he had a steam boiler in tin manufactured. To heat this boiler, he thoughtlessly placed it in the oven of a stove, and afew minutes afterwards it exploded, smashing the stove to pieces, and scattering the fragments around. Fortunately no one was struck by them.
THERE was a very good attendance at the Market to-day. Prices were as follows :— Beef, small, from 5 te 12 cts.; do quarter from 34 to 7 cts.; mutton, from 4 to 8 cts.; lamb, from 4 to 8 cts.; geese, each, from 35 to 55 cts; ducks, from 25 to 30 cts.; chickens, per pair, from 25 to 45 cts.; butter, fresh, from 20 to 24 cts.; do tub, from 15 to 18 cts.; potatoes, from 38 to 50 cents; flour, per 100, $3; oatmeal, $2.75 to $3; hay, from 45 to 50 cts.; oats, 30 cents.
AT an emergency meeting of the City Council, held last evening, an opinion of His Honor the “Recorder was submitted to the effect that Councillors Peake, and Davy, having supplied lumber and iron- work, respectively, to the city, had forfeited their seats. Councillor Peake immediately withdrew from the Council ; but Councillor Davy expressed his determination to test the soundness of the Recorder’s opinion.
Tue produce shipments from this port to- day are as follows:—Schooner Mary E. Mason, New York, with 4,686 bushels potatoes, by John Hughes. Schooner Ed- ward Laymen, Newburyport, U. S., with 6,345 bushels and 50 barrels of potatoes. Schooner James, Halifax, with 1,412 bush- els potatoes, by H. Monaghan. Day Spring, Halifax, with 1,100 bushels potatoes and 50 do. turnips, by Capt. Thomas.
Weare glad to hear that the Rev. R. B. MeDonald will lecture in the Atheneum, under the auspices of the Reform Club, on Moday evening next, the ilth inst. The sub- ject will be ‘* How to read and what to read.” Judging from Mr. McDonald’s fame as a plat- form speaker, a good time may be expected. We hope to see the house filled on the occa- sion. ‘The admission fee is only ten cents. This is the first of a series of lectures which is to take place before them this season.
Tue Court of . Chancery met in this city at eleven o'clock to-day, His Honor the Master of the Rolls presiding. This is a special sitting in order to hear an application to dissolve an) injunction, granted by the Master of the Rolls on the petition of Thomas Alley, Esq., to pre- vent Messrs. Duchemin Bros, from using the | steam engine and machinery in their work- | shop on Prince Street. In this matter there
are thirty two affidavits filed. Messrs. Palmer, p. m., and at other places of which due notice and Peters a rnd for the plaintiff,and Messrs. Hodgson md 0

K’en hang the head !
A great man’s dead !
But he loved France !
While you, ye fickle, noisy crew,
Ey’d him askance.
From first to last, from great to small, Who rightly answer’d duty’s call ” But Nemesis prepar’d his fall,
While yours lack’d point ;
Small creeping maggots bred in all
Times out of joint !
This I will say of him—‘‘ Altho’
He’d plumb’d all depths of weal and woe, He never persecuted foe, Or cast off friend !”
Can any of his judges show
Much less to mend ?
In troubled times his star appear’d—
On chaos’ self his throne was rear’d— And yet for many a day he steer’d
Thro’ channels dark,
Till treachery’s ready rocks were near’d :—
They sank his bark.
