UNION OF THE COLONIES. _ We have much pleasure in taking the follow- ing extract from a late Canadian paper:--

LlIGl§LA'l'l\'l2 Con.-icii., Friday, February 29.— Ben. Mr. Crooks gave notice of the following Inotioit ; which was presented last session :—

“ That an humble address be prcseritcd to her Majesty the Queen, pt'tl)‘llt,y ihzti in-r Majesty would be pleased to cause a nieztsurc to be laid before the Imperial Parliament for the dissolution of the Union now subsisting between East an WestCanada, ttnd that the Province of Eastern and VVestern Canada, Nova Snotia, New Bruits- cvick and Prince Edward island, be united under one general government.

“'l'ltat the Governor Genera‘ be stppoiiited for the United Provinces by the Queen, and Lieute- nant Governors under him for each of the said late Pro-vinces. be appointed by her Maj:-sty.

" That the Legislature r'onsi~t its at present, of a Legislative Council and llonso nf Asseiiilily. the members composing hoih lloiiscs in be elected by the majority of legal v-tto~, :it'coriliitg to the law now existing in each st-pariito Provinc.-, until it law to be pzissed by the general L-vgialtiturc, ac- cording to pi-piilntion.

'i'tii: Iicgitslative Council of Canada, it will be thus seen, have made one step toward the introduction of ti measure long wanted, on which, unless those Colonies are destined to merge into portions of the United States, is sooner or later inevitable. The Acadian Recor- der, frotn which we take the above extract, highly it proves of the plan, with the cxce tion, it woul seem, of the appointment of ieut.

~- Governor, whose sole function would be, he thinks, the cnenting to municipal By-Laws; ‘ we diﬁ'er with him. it every Government there should be a head, call him Lieutenant Gover- nor or wltat you will, he would represent the Province, be the medium throu h which the General Government gives its o are, and the

one to see the Laws carried into execution. I”

He would be in short under his old title, the Mayor, in eﬂeet, of the Corporation; for each of the Colonies, would then be, in its prints on- city, if we may use the term, within its own imits a municipal cor tion. It would’ be, we think, politic to cop up as muchaa possible the some forms; the more dually

Sir :

in our last issue, I saw an article, signed

“ Pastor," professing to be an answer to my queries on the subject of Israel's Restoration to l'.ilcstiito. My °‘ respectable antagonist ” sup- ioscsiiie to be “it Clcr ynian," but " not a nnin of intelligence.” I ithout noticing the i-nmpliiucnt piiid “ the body to which I belong," I would simpl remark, that the question is not tvhother.I ant “ intelligent or otherwise," it clcrgynian or it lougltboy, but whether the opinions of the tcv. Pastor are correct! I would advise all controvcrsiitlists. never to low- er, or to endeavor to lower, or to alfect to rcgard the character of their opponents as insigniﬁ- ant. because, if they be such, the victory—if pcrchance they gain it—tvill be but a sorry triumph ; whereait,il' they exalt, and afterwards conquer, they have gained a laurel worth wear- ing. Now, Ir. Editor, having read the letter through, and carefully considered the so-called answers, I can see nothing like manly straight- forwurdness in them. Ot all the Queries pro- osed, only one is noticed, viz., the Abrahnmic Covenant, and that in it peculiar manner. Ac- cording to “ Pastor," the Jetvs were promised no permanent possessions in the land 0 Canaan, but their temporary residence or sojourn there was merely to typify the heavenly inlieritunce. If, however, we consider the terms of this Co- venant, we shall ﬁnd,that “all the land of Cartoon" was promised to “Abrnliam and to his need after ltim for an everlasting inheri-

- cc. ‘

How about this promise 1-there is no mys- ticism whutcver, but a plain and positive decla- ration rcspecting the earthly Canaan. Now, would ask,—Was this over fullilledl It'so,— When? Not in the days of Joshua, for the

eople “ were not able to drive out the original tiiliabit:tnts," but several tribes remained in tlto hind. Not even in the palmy days of Sulp-

mon, when they itttuined the climax of their I

otherwise be pro udicial to its prospstrit . We slnill probe. ly have an opportunity of lrnotving, how the proposition is received by the Sovcreigti and the l’-.irli:t.incnt. Should it be entertained rind acted upon, all discussion rt-spectirig Elective Legislative Councils may be dispcttscd witli.
