better things are expected from a gentleman who sets himself} up for a member of Parliament. jle is supposed to know

that there are always two parties in the State: those whe are with and those who are against the Government ;— and moreover, the furmer may, with every propriety, hold office, while the latter cannot with any decency do so: or, if the Government know its duty, ought not to be permitted to do so. Mr. Holm, /£ appears, however, has got to learn his A BC in

political knowledge ; and if the progress which he makes |

during the next sitting of Parliament be proportionate to his past acquirements, his happy constituents will haye reason to be proud of him,

We have expressed our surprise that Mr.{1idin, as an official, should kick up his heels against the Government of which he was so anxious to be a servant, and fret and whine, and get all his friends to fret and whine in concert with him, because he has been very properly turned about his business in disgrace , but we are still more surprised at the culpable forbearance of the Government in al owing him to remain a day in office after he made a fuol of himself at the Donnybrook Fair Meeting on the 25th August Jast.

With respect to Mr. Holm’s removal from the office of Clerk to the Small Debt Commissioners, the resolution which was

‘offered as a salve to his wounded yanity in this instance, in-

forms us that this momentous occurrence was ** an act of petty tyranny, unjust, unreasonable and unealled for, and sayours tuo wuch of the ‘irun rod aduinistration’ to be tolerated by an independent and intelligent people, without repudiation.”’ We beg pardon for placing the last word of the above fiere, sentence in italies ; the expletives in the first part, respecting the injustice and nnreasonableness of ** petty tyranny,’’ admi- rably illustrate the educational acquirements as well as the boasted intelligence of the indignant opponents of the Govern- ment até Do Sable.

THE WEATHER }

For the last three or four days has been of almost unprece- dented severity. On Saturday night the harbor was frozen _over safliciently to enable parties to walk across, and yesterday

Notwithstanding the untowurd aspect of the weather, we cannot but indulge the hope that the valuable property mow afloat in oar harbor may be speedily literated from its icy fetters, and realize profitable returns to the enterprising exporters. The deten- tion in this port, during the winter, of the outward-bound vessels and cargoes would be most seriously feit by the mer- eantile community, which has gone through the severe ordeal

of last summer's depression. We regret to hear that several. | yessels ure iee-bound at St Peter's.
