Paerisiso roe Vic1'osr.—Within the past week the dies for three medals have been sunk in London (and by an English artist.) intended as decorations for the Russian army of the East, and proof medals have been, we are informed, struck in copper. The largest of these medals. which is to be of gold. is to have a circlet of diamonds; there is a group of figures in the foreground with a view of the " Ho y aces ” in the background, and a diamond inserted in the sky, valued at £40, to represent the " Star in the East,” which, it is conyecturcd, isto be the name of a new order. In the larger and most valuable model the part representing the sky is to be formed of turquoise stnnes,end in the two smaller ones of a blue enamel; the design is the same for all three. In the model we understood the tin oise stones were so beautifully set as to appear al one stone. and altogether scsuperbly executed as to niost exquisite effect.

We have had a deal of ccurrllouc abuse res- pcctin the sending Messrs. Holl,and liavilnnd. to con cr with Lord Elgin, respecting the men.- cnres to be adopted in consequence of the treaty of reciprocity negotiating between the United States and Eng end. It is not our intention to enter into any discussion upon the matter, it is needless ; and fitter or more pro- r persons could soercel be found, or men who will refiect more cred t on the Island on the Government. Let us rather turn to the matter itself. There can be no doubt of the willingness of the Iiegislnture of the Island to lend its aid in_ wing. elect to the terms of the

tree even i it not all that it might possi ywish for. Abeginning once made an afrien l commerical intercourse once fully

ents nto, and the reciprocal benellt that they will confer, will be so evident, that every

car will see an extension of the terms, till ut set free trade in the most enlarged sense of the ’ term, will be established for ever between the lUnited States of America and the difierent British Provinces. The next thin will be to establish the same freedom, an the some reciprocity between the provinces, and this _we understand is alaoa part of Lord El in’s mission There s been of late a s ciec o conviction on the minds of British tetesmcn, that the time has now arrived, or, is at least rapidly approaching, when one o cons uences must happen, either their Colonies wil merge

That union is strength, is e maxim just as s. plicnble to the present British American Colonies, us it was to the thirteen at the time of their revolution and their abrogation of the rule of England. There is no reason w a Parliament of the United Colonies of Great Britain should not work as well as a Congress of the United States of America. In one res t the former would have greatly the advantage over the letter, for there is no such dire stumbling-block—no such rock of ofi'ance—in their we as that question of slavery between the nort em and southern States of the Union, which every succeeding year will become more difiicult to grep le with, end of which the most probnble resu t is that it will cficct a dissolution of the Union for the abolition of Slavery, is one of those hlessin s that are more to rayed for than reusonnh y to be expected, at least for some time to come. That the day will come there can be little doubt, but whether the change will be elected gradually by the moral force of religion and reason, or euddenl , by means of a servile war —the very idea 0 which is sullicient to cause the blood to run cold and to conjure up in the mind the most hideous phantoms of all that is horrid and revolting to humanity—no one can foretell. be done with res t to the British possessions in America; we are already seen t at there is an unwillingness in the Home Government to sufisr the troops of the nation to defend us from forei aggression, or protect us from
