M., after congratulating the President upon his elec- jtion, proceeded to say that he had only one ‘great regret, and that was that he could not enter heartily into the thick of the fight. He did not know why he was relegated to his home. He said he would follow them with the warmest feeling. Perhaps during the discussion of the union question he used some expressions which were to be regretted. He urged the ministers to be patient and vigilant. He thought that it was a matter for gratitude that the union had been consummated without any loss of property.
