IMMENSE Prori7 or tue Cunarpers.—The Cunard Royal Mail Line has now been twenty- seven years in eXisteuce. The Cunard Com- pany bought four ships to start with, and they are now the owners of twenty-four splendid ocean steamers, built out of their large protits after paying splendid dividends to the stock holders. Asa specimen of their prosperity, take the present cargo:—We have on board 218 first-class passengers, who pay $155 piece, making a total of $33,790 in gold. freight is estimated at early $10,000. In ad dition, they receive some $9,000 fur carrying the mail (which is included in their annua! subsidy from the British goverument). Their expenses are about $15,000 the sinzle trip, not more.—These figures, nearly exact, foot up a very large profit for the single trip.

** Alas, poor Caledonia’s mountaineer, That Waut's stern edict e’er, and feudal grief, Had forced him from a bowe he loved so dear;

Yet foaud he here a home, aud glad relief.’

Tue lines quoted above were nut intended to apply toany emigration of Scotehmen to Prince Kudward Island; to this country they are still, ina great degree, inapplicable. They refer to Peunsylvania, in those remote Colonial times,

long before the Declaration of Independence, when the early settlers held their own, with some difliculty, against the erafty red Indian, and his scarcely less wily French allies.

But why should not these lines be true as regards this Colony? Why should not British subjects “ find here a home,” in the possessior of which they might feel as secure as their fellow-colonists in Australia or New Zealand ? Why should “feudal grief,” which oppressed them at home, pursue them to this Island alone, of all the British Colonies? The answer to these questions rises spontaneously to every reader’s lips—beeause the Imperial Govern ment, just 100 years ago, acting with lavish improvidence, alienated lands which should have been preserved with jealous care for the benefit of future generations! Is there no remedy for this grievance? Must it continue to he the prolifie source of heart-burninzs and disquietude, oceasionally swelling up into open defiance of the law—perpetually absorbing the attention of our Legislature, of the Executive, and of the most thoughtful and acutest minds amongst us? Must it for all time stand in the way of our public improvements, and absorb the first profits of our labor? Must proprie- tors’ rents, in short, fur ever constitute a sort of preference stock, a first charge on our Colonial capital? We have always imagined, vainly perhaps, that under the British Constitution a remedy is provided for every grievance, and that such need ouly be proved, when redress follows as a uatural consequence. We believe
