When #o ready to inform the Government on such unimpor- tant matters as these, is it at ali likely they would keep the Gorernment in ignorance about the resalt of their labours? At ali events, every person in this Island.knows that the Gio- veramont are entitled to recvive a copy of the award — the people pave paid their moaey for it to a very large amount— they were promised it long before this — and if the Commis- goaers have not sent it to the Government, the Government ghould apply te the C mumissioners for it immediately.

We will return to the subject every week until we shall see the end of this matter, and we will offer some observations upon those outlines of the award as communicated in the letter from Halifax. The Government are no doubt anxious to divert pablie attention from this subject, and therefore encourage Mr. Pope's atsempte ie get upa religious excitement ; but our sttention shall not be diverted from it by any such contemp- tible tricks.

THE COLONIAL SECRETARY'S LAST LETTER.

fort be has yet made to arouse the ‘‘No Pupery’’ cry. This is wot because he has been Jed te cultivate kindlier feelings to- wards his Catholic neighbours, or that his masters and ac- complices in the waholy crusade have become ashamed ef their fully, and hawe advised their servant to abate the ar- dour of bis attacks om pearly half the tax payers of the cuun- try. There is no doubt taat his hatred of the Catholics is as strong ae ever i¢ was—(though why a man who declares that he delonge to n® denomination of Christians should h.te one sect more than another, is what we cannot understand) —and his desire no lese ardent to excite religious animosities in a community where peace and good fellowship hitherto prevail-

How different is this sentiment from that which the head official of our Government endeavours to inculeata every week, and in which the whole Administration, from Mr. Dandae down, evidently concur! Their belief is, that Catholics—no matter how numerous they may be, and how much soever they may contribute to the support of the Government—are not entitled to enjoy all the privileges of the British consti-

Protestants neighbours —and henee the dullness, sameness and supidity of his two last letters. The firet, second and third letters were cheifly occupied with a discussion of the New- foundland affairs and the Mayo election. The Secretary took the Urange Tory view of these matters, and attempted tu argue from thesce that 35,000 Catholics in Prince Eiward Island shuuld be put down, and excluded from any share in the ad- ministration of public affairs, because an Irish priest, several pears ago, aaid something about an election ia his own County, aud because large bodies of Catholics im St. Join's end other parts of Newfoundland attempted tu exercise their civil riglits at the last elections there. Now, the absurdity of Mr Pope's petition with t.speet ty these matters was apparent to every oue, and very many intelligent meu of his own party loudly deprecated hie allu-ion to them. I¢ is certain that no one hus perlicly concurred with him in opinion, if we except a very stupid article frum the editur of the Muaitor, which wm rely gave an echo to Pope's **No Pupery”’ howl without going in- te detai's. But the Culonial Secretary is not satisfied with ali he has yet said about the Irish election, and Le promises to give us in his next epistle a rehash of the story gathered from the pruceediugs of the House of Commons. that can illustrate the character of Prince Edward [sland Ca-

of some of the most important matters of interest.

The country North and South is now realizing the horrors of |

Civil War, brought about by a set of unprincipled politicians and unscrupulous extreuets inboth sectious—oringing desolation to the homes of millions of families who might otherwise be prosperogs and happy.

The premature edvance an Manassae Junction on last Sunday week which resulted m the repuise of our troops, was forced upon Geaeral Seott against his judgment. This repulse may be attributed to politieal and newspaper Generals, who urged

| We sincerely regret, therefore, that the verses ever found their | way into print ; but we can honestly aver that they were not

published from any design on our part to give offence. We ishould be very sorry to assist in casting mdicule, knewingly, on any clergyman living in our midst, especially on one so old and so highly esteemed as the gentleman who is said to be alluded to; and certainly we did not suppose that he was the object of the sarcasm when we know that the writer ef the ver- ses is himself a member of the Church of Scotland, and a well educated person who bas written many pleasing things for our jeolumns. The error, then, should not be charged upon the

Catholic publisher who did not comprehend the scope and

tendeucy of the lucubration of his Protestant contributor.
