Mr Sandfield Macdonald announced to the Canadian Parliament that the Ministry that morning had resigned. Their majority, he said, had proved to be not such as would enable them to carry on the business of the country with satisfaction to themselves or benefit to the country. That they still possessed a majority in the House was evidenced by the fact that the Opposition had declined any trial of strength this Session upon the Address, or since; but still Ministers had felt that, unless their majority was increased, they could not satisfactorily proceed with the public business. They felt that there were important questions to be dealt with, requiring an Administration carried on with a vigour inspired by a greater numerical strength of support in the House. Parliament, of course, adjourned to give time for the formation of a new Administration. The Governor sent for Mr Cartier, who is leader of the "Bleu" party in Lower Canada, and possesses a strong following in Parliament. Shortly afterwards Colonel Sir E. P. Taché was sent for. It was thought that a coalition of some kind might be formed. CURRENT EVENTS. CUXHAVEN, April 14.-Several Danish war vessels are cruising at the mouth of the Elbe.
