    tion, after having been the subject of grave delifyration
    and legislation by the first Government and Legislature
    ‘n the world, would be destroyed without a twelve-
    months’ experience, by allowing Nova Scotia to secede.
    It would be an act of humiliatir.g vaccillation, which no
    enlightened or strong government would accept; and
    we verily believe that rather than undo, what has been
    done, the Imperial Parliament would allow Nova Scotia
    and all these Provinces to rise in revolt and annex
    themselves to the United States.. Disintegration would
    be a dangerous precedent for the Mother Country to
    establish. How readily would Ireland cancel her Union
    with England if she had the power; and her plea for
    repeal is stronger than Nova Scotia's, because accom-
    plished by the most flagrant corruption and bribery. If,
    therefore, Nova Scotia obtained a repeal of her Union
    with Canada, upon the plea that the consent of the
    people at the polls was not first had and obtained, with
    what decency or consistency—upon what pretext could
    Ireland's demand for a repeal of her Union with England
    be denied? In turning the matter over in our minds,
    this is the view we took of it, and we were safe in com-
    ing to the conclusion that however hard Nova Scotia
    might consider the manner in which she was treated,
    there was no repeal for her. Once united, whether by
    fair or foul means, she was united forever, or antil some
    power superior to that of Britain intervened to cut the
    connection. Such is the unfortunate position in which
    politicians have placed a once loyal and contented Pro-
    vinee. The discontent which was ripe enough before,
    bat held in abeyance whilst the case was under the con-
    sideration of the Imperial authorities, cannot now fail to
    receive new force. ‘What then?” was the question
    asked by Nova Scotiens, In the event of their petitions
    for repeal being disregarded. “What now?” is the
    question which demands amore immediate answer from
    them. It would be folly to attempt a revolt, in the hope
    of obtainin~ the assistance of the United States in the
    struggle. ‘Tie United States are not in a position to lend
    that potent assistance to Nova Scotia, which is neces-
    sary to ensure a successful rebellion. In the civil war,

    the Patriot last week has, whilst a onl
    sation nasal organs of our contemporary, a
    ee his intellect. We are, thorefore, under

    the necessity of treating him to another pinch, to remedy

    ic affairs, We reminded him that if he wished to
    te any good by his * strictures” upon general affairs,
    he stoukt begin as a reformer in the City Councll. ‘This
    he calls “dodging.” ‘There is any number of improve-
    ments wanted in the city, of which Mr, Laird is one of
    the guardians, yet he conveulently closes his eyes to

    apon all sorts of pleas, Weask If he has not sufficient
    administrative ability to govern a small town, are the
    people going to accept him as a political Moses? This
    he calls a‘ miserable subterfuge.” Neither the logic
    nor the honesty of our contemporary Is to be admired.
    Ile is opposed to the Bishop recelving any assistance
    from the public Treasury for the schools which he
    tains at his own cost, and yet the Patriot censures the
    Government for rejecting His Lordship's application!
    This, of course, is not “dap'leity,” nor the part of
    * political adventurers.” It is honesty and consistency
    of the Patriot stamp. At one time, our contemporary
    mildly approves of the composition of the Board of
    Education, and at another, he condémns It as a rascally
    arrangement. Now, there are no Catholics appointed
    to office, and anon, there are too many-—they are In “ po-
    litical ascendency.” ‘These are the tactics of the Patriot
    —easily seen through, and valued at their trae worth.
    Let us not be misunderstood. We are not defending
    the Government or our own consistency, The factia, we
    are under the bellef that if either the Government or
    ourselves find it necessary to be defended against the
    attacks of a delusive weather-cock like the /atriot, the
    sooner we retire from the position to give way to Mr.
    Laird and his friends the better. We simply remind
    him of certain civic functions In which he has miserably
    failed, and for this reason hint that he ought to be
    moderate In his censures of others. This he calls trad-
    ing upon the “religious convictions” of the people.
    The leaky tanks, the sink, the side walks, the wells, the
    drains, &Âą., which are matters of vital importance to the
    people of Charlottetown, are, apparently, unworthy the
    consideration of Mr. Laird; but not so the govern-
    ment appointments and the spoils of office. He has a keen
    eye to “ Legislative luxuries.” Ile forgets that taxation
    in the city has been increased thirty per cent. without
    anything to show for it; but he has not forgotten to
    appropriate the city printing to himself. We would not

    insinuate, as he has done to us, that this was the sole
    object of his aspiring to civie honors, and that the
    “sweets of the oficial honey comb” have rendered him
    both * blind and dumb” to the wants of his constituents
    and the citizens generally. Looking at his position, we
    must say that our contemporary is Indiscreet in alluding
    to alleged governmental extravagance, more particularly
    as he very ingentousty received the largest share of the
    “hard-earned taxes” expended in ‘‘stationery,” and
    never declined the “laxury” of pipes and tobacco when
    official reporter to the House, When the “ luxaries”
    and the * extravagence " ceased to be participated in by
    our contem) orary—when the ery of “ give! give!” failed
    to have any effect, then the vigilance of our “ guardian

    economist” and © political censor,” which dozed in the
    presence of reckless extravagance, increased taxation,
    and civic imbecility in the Con ell, was suddenly
    awakened, aud the mild censures and quasi support of

    the Patriot tarned into the ill-jadged attacks of an un-
    scrupulous and disappointed foe. He may “dodge”
    about in this style as much as he pleases, fancying, no
    doubt, that he is advancing his own interests, and mak-
    ing himself immensely popular with the people, but, to
    use his own language, we shall not allow him to draw
    us Into the discussion of sabjects which have no bearing
    en the point at issne, and we shall clatm the privilege of
    directing attention to city affairs whenever, and as often
    as we please, If we show that there are grievances to
    be redressed, and improvements to be introduced into
    city affairs by Councillor Laird and his confreres, awd
    that before attempting to govern a whole colony, he
    should first prove his competency, by properly and
    economically managing those which he has been elected
    to administer, it will not do for the Patriet to “art-
    fully endeavor to evade the question .which we have
    raised,” by asserting that the Bible Christians and
    Baptists are entitled to half a minister each upon the
    Board of Education! If Mr. Laird wishes to escape the
    responsibility of the gross mismanagement of elvic
    affairs, and pass current as a thorough going reformer,
    let him resign his position in the Council. Under present
    cirenmstances, we can only tender to him the advice of
    *Artemas Ward" to Congress. The advice will suit
    the sleepy Councillors to a“ 'T.” Here It is :—Gentle-
    men of the City Council, you've sot there and made
    summer-complaint speeches long enuff. ‘The City at
    large, incloodin the undersined, is disgusted with you.
    Why don’t you show ns a Councillor—somebody who
    can make a reform speech that will hit the pop'lar hart
    right under the great public weskut. Why don't you
    show us an Alderman who can rise up to the Emergency
    and cave in the Emergency's head. Councillors, you
    won't do. Go home, you mizzerable !Go home!”
    Our space is exhausted just now, but we shall watch the
    mancuvres of our contemporary in the futare, and tickle:
    him up as oceasion may require.

    ‘The Royal Mail Steamer Civy of Washington arrived a

    anticipated by telegraph.

    turn to Bombay, but that the Queen died of pulmonary
    disease in the camp on the evening of the 15th ult. She
    had been in wretched health before the fall of Magdala, and
    it was, it seems, her own desire to remain under British pto-

    In an article on the policy of Russia, suggested by tho
    success which has attended the arms of the Czar in Central
    Asia, the Quebec Chronicle thus contrasts.the policy pur.
    sued by the Emperor of all the Russias and that followed by
    Great Britain :—

    *: The two powers present a singular contrast—England
    half disposed to abandon some of her colonies, as was
    Rome in the days of her decline, and Russia er to en-
    large her habitable domain: at whatever cost, The future
    may witness intrigues and efforts of every character on the
    part of the two great European powers, which now share a
    vast portion of Asia between them, for the mastery over the
    Affghanistan gate to India, With the many wonderful ad-
    vantages in lritain's favor, wecruiag from her enormouy na-
    val supremacy, her extensive command of the innumerable
    aids of art and science, her growing influence in India, on.
    account of ita better government, and the improved con.
    dition of its people, and with the procigious means of do-
    fence and aggression which 150 millions of people under the
    rule of Victoria afford, there is little fear of Russia absorb-
    ing the Indian Empire fur. many a long year. ‘The great
    levaon which Russia's progress should teach Britain te the:
    government of India in the way. best calculated to extend
    the blessings of Western civilization throughout the land,
    Let England rule India with kindness and wisdom, and she
    will lay in the hearts of the peole the for idationof a Do-
    minion which will defy the utmost craft and violence of
    any power on earth,”

    Satunpay’s Patriot is scurrilous and mendactous at
    the expense of the Hon, Geo. W. Howlan. The semi-
    weekly Is fast losing all character for trath, principle,

    and honesty.
