Tue excitement consequent on the change of Goverument is happily subsiding. There is, however, yet—as might be expected—a good dea! of dissatisfaction amongst many friends of the Goverument, who consider they have strong claims to preferment, and for whom uo places have yet been provided ; and the avowed yppo- nents of the Government are doing everything iu their power to keep the chagrin aud disap- poiutment alive.

They resisted the ordinance of God, and by so dving they purchased for themselves dannation. [ use only the words of St. Paul. But their guilt did not stop here. They had not ad vanced far upon their road when they perpetrat- ed a foul, cold blooded murder. It seems they first displayed their courage by disarming a coaat-guard station where there was, if I am rightly informed, only one man to resist them, They soon met one policeman riding towards them. He was one of our flock. the most exemplary life, not long married, as { am informed, to a young wife, whose life was as edifying as his own. This man was going not only on his lawlul but on bis bound. en duty. He would not give injury or offence to any living man. When this band of rebels met him they demanded the papers that had been entrusted to his keeping by his superiors, hut the brave, the noble minded man, who pre- ferred his duty to his life, boldly answered no,

The fact that the Edinburgh ie now sixty years old, or thereabouts, and that the London Quarter. ly has reached the venerable age of fitty-vime, while Blackwood, which detes from the year 1517, * as vigorons as ever, aud its power is felt ov beth sides of the Atlantic, shows that the edu. cated clasees of our Anglo-Saxon race discern ip these journals a masiery, a power of thonght and an atiractiveness of style, which pe similar works have ever attained. Publishers mm our country have attempted reprints of ether Enrepean Ma- gazines and Reviews without success; but the demand for these journals growa just as education extends in our land. Thies is the case, votwith- standing some articles that at times find their way inte them whieh the popular judgment of our people would reject or condemm. It could net be expected (hal war people would bowk at all matiers, sociul, governmental, or ecelesiastical, trom a Freoch, a German, or a British stand-pomt, but the causes whieh lead our educated te value these joernals as they do, are obviens toall who are acquainted with them, and whe under stand the wanner in whieb they ave sustained.
