V j Tho cont of reconstruction haft been reckoned to amount to a $100,000,. 000 a, year ; lint the. coat o? th o im? peachment pl the. ; President, the National Intelligencer thinks, Will like? ly exceed that cum. It cannot be estimated by any comparison with tho oxponse o? the often referred to trial of Warren Hastings. This trial will exceed that, in coat, by as much aa it does in importance. The trial of Hastings lasted seven years, but it occupied the House of Lord? only 120 days, at various intervals, winch were- required for obtaining testi? mony from India. In the end, Hast? ings was acquitted, but required to pay the cost of prosecution, amount? ing to .?71,000, wdilo the cost of the Government waa over a ?100,000. Bat tiie trial of Hastings did not in? terrupt the course of business, nor shake the public credit, nor threaten the Empire with dissolution. The impeachment of the President has al? ready disturbed the business relations of the country, and has postponed indefinitely that attention to its de? ranged fiscal concerns which was ex? pected and required from Congress. If the agitation so persistently pro? moted by Congress, should continue much longer, and mingle with the strife of the Presidential election, it may cost the bond-holders and the banks more than one-half of their entire investments. It ia very plain that the radical majority in Congreso will stop at nothing in pursuit of their purpose to overthrow the Go? vernment aa it waa established by the Constitution, and concentrate its powers in the hands of this central directory. Their President, if they obtain one through impeachment, will be a mere puppet in their posses? sion-a sort of "supple-jack," for their amusement and derision. The oost of the impeachment can only be estimated by the amount of damage whioh it has done and will do to the credit of the Government abroad and at home, and by the loss which must be sustained by paralyzing every effort in the future for the material recuperation of the Southern staple produoing States. The debate on the Irish question, in the House of Commons, has con? tinued and ended pretty much like all the other debates on the same subject, in thu same place. Mr. Gladstone condemned five out of the six plans proposed by the Ministry for-the benefit of Ireland, and only approved of a scheme of political reform. Mr. Disraeli was rut hor sar? castic and jocose in deploring the fate which gave him a difficulty of 700 years' standing to be settled-a supernatural emergency. He did not want to meddle with the Irish Church establishment, and unsettle a system which had existed for three hundred years. He ended by usking for time -a little more time; and then Mr. Maguire's resolution was withdrawn. It would not very much surprise any? body if, after all, Mr. Disraeli <lio meddle with tho Church establish? ment in Ireland, and, in some verj sudden way, upsot it and do awaj with it. In England, the New Yorls Times asserts, there are very few tc praise that establishment, and nom to lovo it, in all probability. -4^ ? >. - Tho American silver coins, which people so rarely see, are circulating in such great numbers in Canuda, that they are a drug in the market $7,000,000 of these coins aro now circulating in Canada, and the Cana diana are anxious to get rid of them, and impose a duty of 15 per cent, OE further importations.

F , held ou the evening of the 20tb Instant, the following preamble and resolutions were offered and adopted: The angel of death, having hardly given ua time to realize the demise of one bro? ther, has again reaped from amongst oar numbers and inflicted another severe loss to our Lodge. As a robber selects gene? rally the moat valaable portion of a trea? sure, so eoeme death to havo aelected the most valaable members of our Order, and thoee of aa that aro left can only, in sor? row and submission, bow to tho will ot an all-wise Providence.

In the prune of manhood he was called from his honorable and useful career, and here we are again assembled, missing him whom we honored for his many virtues and rare talents; whom we cherished as s friend; whom wo love i as a brother; who was en? deared to ua for bia kindness and affability; in whom wu trusted, because of biB un? wavering integrity; bim who, with a jea? lous seal, worked for tho welfaro of thia Lodge and of the Order, and who, with rare devotion and exactness, performed the duties of the office he held in thia Lodge. His body rests in the silent gravo-him we shall never moro behold in this vale of tears. Ilia voice will not again be heard in our councils, bat his memory will live in oar hearts; and as we now bewail his sud? den and irreparable loss, so we desire to cherish his memory by recording hie vir? tues and his devotion to the great princi? ples of our Order. But not alone aa a member of this Lodge do we feel the death of the deceased. We miss him in the walks of life, tn thia community, where be built up for himself an everlasting monu? ment in the hearts of those to whom he was a guide, a teacher and a friend; and hero we may safely say that tow men die like him, leaving bohind ao many virtues and carrying ao few faults.
