Although there may be some little ir tation | in defeat at an election contest, Mr. Whelan | his own report, commenting on this part of the| | debate, makes the following remark :— ‘(Mr. Davies, a member of the Government, declared that before being appointed Mr. Whe-| lan renounced his Confederate opinions, pro- nised to oppose Confederation, and on the | strength of that promise he was made Printer ' {to the Queen’s Most Excellent Majesty.

The German Confederation considered | Luxemburg one of their most important out- | posts, and taxed their genius to improve its| natural advantages so as to make it almost im- | pregnable. The upper town is constructed | upon a rock rising two hundred feet from the | plain and isolated on three sides; another rock, } in the centre of the lower town commands the valley ot the river above and below, and such | on the right is the Empress s drawing-room, a} of the : ; : : : la Louis XVI, and on the left a salon in the | W4Y of ordinary traflic; but five-sixths of the | exteusive engineering works have been com- | pleted there as to produce something of a re- semblauce to Gibraltar.

Alluding to the intellectual calibre of the House, Mr. Laird observes :-— “The regular business of the Session fairly commenced on Monday gfternoen, whea the auswer to the Speech—which, in a literary pont of view, is not a very wonderful triumph of genius—was taken up. The debates, so far, though well sustained, are not the slashing Vigorous debates of furmer years. The alsence from the Legislature of so many of the old| party chiefs, whose private aud peisonal dif- fereaces often added (urce and piquancy t their periiamentary utterances, aud the almost total obiiteration of old party lines by the reciprocal adoption of each other's measures, have toned down extreme opinious on both sides. The Colonial Secretary was very much missed from the ministerial benches, aud lad the Attorney General's reelection been opposed the G vern- ment would have been placed in an awkward prsdicament eu the tloor of the House.”’ We will not comment upon this further than to say, in reference to the literary style of the address, that although it is not a gem—and such things ought not to be of too dazzling a brizht- ness—it speaks good plain common sense, which the duliest brain cannot fail to compre- hend; and we must confess we have often seen staie documents of a like character, emanating from larger aisemblies, not much better, and often worse. We think it waa Cobbett able member himself, who addressed the follow- ing letter to the editor of the Patriot, and it) | i “« To the Editor of the Patriot. “Sin :—Under the leading article contained im your paper of 25th iust., you made it appear | that I stated on the floor of the House of As. sembly, that the Hon. Edward Whelan, before | being appointed to office, had renounced his | Confederate opinions, and promised the Go-| vernment to oppose that Scheme, as the cou- | dition of his apprintment. I thought I made | iayself clear to the understanding of every | person. It was in consequence of the an- nouncement put forward by Mr. Whelan in the | Examiner some time ago, to the effect that he would not support Confederate views, that [, us a member of the Government, azreed to his appointment; and I felt certain if he had been returned he would have acted in good faith to- wards his colleagues; but, Sir, you made it} appear I said the Government, not satisfied | with Mr. Whelan’s voluatary renunciation of | the revolutionary scheme, also recuired a fur- ther aud direct pledge to them of his recanta- tion. Such is not the case. “T have to request you will be pleased to publish this communication, and oblige yours, &c., &c., appears in that journal of Saturday evening :— ‘‘ Bensamin Davies, Ch’town, April 27, 1867.” In this letter Mr. Davies has come nearer the truth than his reported speeches do. Mr. | Whelan certainly promised not to ‘support’ | Coufederation in opposition to the will of the people. In a’No. of the Examiner, previous to the general election, he expressed his opin- ion that so great a change should not be forced upon the people, without their consent to it being first freely indicated at the hustings. This is precisely the same kind of a pledze that the Hon. Mr. Haviland gave to his constituents. so was Mr. Whelan by a majority of 185 votes over his opponent, who piped to no other music throughout the public canvass but anti- Confederation ; and this result, we think, shows | that Mr. Haviland’s aud Mr, Whelan’s pledges were readily accepted by their constituents. We wil! only add, that on Mr. Whelan’s part who used to refer to the Royal Speeches at the opening and closing of Parliament as the surest places wherein to discover inelegant com posi- ten aud bad grammar ; and the London Puncd, | we know, has frequently made them the butt of ita ridicule, on account of their defective style.

The persisteat re- ports are said to have occasioned “the most profound emotion.” Persons connected with the Government go backward and forward from Luxemburg to Hazue and thence to Paris, whose movements give a colouring to the re-| ports of what is going on in Cabinets.

This is very like a Bismarckian plea. Itis not the Berliu Cabinet that rejects the French proposal; for the Berlin Cabinet | desires above all things to be at peace and live in friendship with France, it is the “ people” who object to the French acquisition of Lux- emburg. And what is Bismarck to do, if ‘the | people’’ forbid the gratification of his friendly desire to acquiesce in Napoleon's desizn ? This is plausable ; but Napoleon, exchanging smiles with Bismarck, goes ou.

TURKEY’S MENACE TO GREECE | The Porte has addressed an energetic note to the Greek Government threatening to in- vade the latter's territory if it persisted in ithe hostile proceedings against the Porte. | An extraordinary Council of Ministers has been held under the presidency of the Sultan, when the propositions of the Powers in refer- ence to Crete and the future condition of the Christians in Turkey were again considered. A deputation of Bulgarians has presented a petition to the Sultan, asking for certain privi- leves referring to the autonomy of Bulgaria. Prince Michael has been received with great houors by the Sultan and the Porte. THE SALE OF RUSSIAN AMERICA. A transaction has been arranged between the two Governments of Russia and the United States, which both, no doubt, considered would be vexatious and hurtful to Great Britain. The Russian territories in America have been sold to the United States fur seven millions ot dollars (something less than a million and a half sterling) asum so utterly disproportionate to the extent ofthe territory, that it might be said to he no price at all. Russian America has really been made a present of to the Gov. ernment which has for the last few years made elaborate professions of friendship and shown avery earnest desire to strengthen its alliance painted white over them, and round the build. ing are sentences from the Koran in gold characters upon a blue ground, and the build- ing is surmounted by flat gilled cupolas. The entrance is by a high flight of steps, which are suarded by six lions of singularly forbidding with Russia. The area of the cedea territory is three times that of the British Islands, and although its-value to its Russian possessors was not considerable, in the hands of the Govern- ment of the United States it is capable of being turned to great account for purposes of ag- aud irritable aspect. The Emperor's pavilion has been built on the plans of MM. Lehmann and Duval, with the aid of several of the French | exhibitors.

Living is not proportionally | dear, although that is expeasive enough ; but, | considering the enormous prices charged in the | markets for food of all kinds, it is really sur-| prising how such elaborate and various meals | at the table d’hote at the good hotels ean be | furnished for the six or seven francs charged | for them. How Parisians with a mederate | income manage to live we are at a loss to| imagine; for not only have the prices of pro- | visions risen excessively, but the rent of THE FLEECING LODGING HOUSE KEEP- ERS OF PARIS. The students of Paris at a meeting at the Ecole de Medecine passed a series of raost gallant resolutions, which must serious!y em- barrass the lodsing-house keepers who had} proposed to fleece them under the pretext of the general rise of prices caused by the Uni Exhibition. It was yoted nat every student whose laudlord attempted to raise his rent shall leave immediately and apply to the | committee to find him another residence. That the names of such lodging house keepers in the quarter as maintain their old rates shall be favourably promulgated ; that on the contrary, a black list shall be made of those who raise their prices, aud the studen’s will do their best their houses.

We have never menaced Holland, nor exposed the Dutch Government to petty molestation.” This may seein generous aud seli-denying; but it is capable of another interpretanon. The power that has forced some States and wheedled others into the new German combination may also have conceived the possibility of inducing Holland, with all her navy and her colonies, to zo into it alse. The consideration of this pos- sibility may have determined the Emperor to declare bis own will,and brave a rupture with the Coufederation to accomplish it. A remarkable sight would be afforded if the Prussian troops were to march quietly out of Luxembourg in or- der that the army of France might march in ; and it is one we can scarcely expect Count Bis- marck will agree to. There are rumours arising out of the French desire for Luxemburg, of Austria and Prussia becoming earnest friends and forming an al- liance offensive and defensive ; the Austrian Minister, Baron von Beust, who hasa reputation for profound statesmanship, being strongly in- clined to it. The Courier du Bas Rhine says, ‘the proposal of France to buy Luxemhurg of Holland has produced an excitement among all Austrian-Germans which may have the etlect of changing an Austro French alliance into an Austro-Prussian one.”” The fact ia, on the testi- mony of this French border paper, that all Ger many looks npon Laxemburyg as an intezral part of Fatherlan¢ and the vanquished of Sad- owa is urged by his own subjects to save Luxem- burg from Napoleon’s hands. Italy alone is urged to ap act af jugratitude to ita imperial the torrents rush down from the mountains and inundate the valleys because there is no foliage to arrest their course or to stay the melting of the snows, and a numerous progeny of insects devour the corn and fruit, since there are no birds to devour them. Thus whole provinces are barren wastes, dreary wildernesses ; and as in Franee during the glorious reign of the Grand Monarque Louis Quatorze, two-thirds of the soil is without culture. The capital is zradually subsiding into the same sterility. The shops are closed, and those which remain open expose only wares which would be unsaleable even in the remote provincial towns of other nations—the sweepings of London, Paris, Manchester, and Mulhovse. As for native produce, non est. The traveller searches in vain for something to take home with him, to remind him of the country waich he has seen and the miseries which he has endured during his travels. The clubs and cats are also being closed in obedience to the “exceptional regime,’ the nobility and burghers are desert- i-g aeity where there is nether amusement nor business, and all is drearyand dispiriting. the young King and Queen of Portuzal wonld infuse some guiety into the eity, and make the people forget their woes for a vhile; but these hopes are now dispelled. TheKing first wrote to postpone his visit, and his Ambassador now informs the Queen that he changed his mind. The change produced in men’s minds by the continuance of this syaem of miszov- ernment has been remarkable. Monurchical institutions were move cherishet here than in any other country, but Reactionists Some hopes had been raised that the visit of have by. gression and further aggrandisement. A large portion consists of a region so elevated that during a great part of the year it is covered with snow, and a few active volcanoes diversify the general dreariness.

Between this territory now acquired by the American Government and the rest of the lat- ter’s possessions, lies the nrovince of British Columbia, and ere long it is possible that the Washington Cabinet, finding it inconvenient to have its country divided by the interposition of a British province, may take steps for an- other arrangement.

Eee THE AMATEUR CONCERT. “Music resembles poetry ; in each Are numerous graces, Which uo methods teach, Aud which « niaster band alone cau reach.” The Amateur Concert, as duly announced, came off last Monday evening, in the Temper- ance Hall before a crowded audience, and was | honored by the patronage and presence of His Excellency and Mrs. Dundas, and was, I think, in the opinion of every one present, a decided and brilliant success. This is the second Con- cert that they have now given, and certainly J think they deserve the hearty thanks of the community for the trouble they have taken to afford us so much pleasure and amusement. The marked improvement in this one over the former is even much more than could be pessi- bly expected, especially from Amateurs; whe- ther it is owing altogether to the presence and valuable assistance of the Ladies, I will not as- sume the province of determining, but certainly, if not altogether, it added in a very great mea- sure to our entertainment and their efficiency. On the Programme were many well sclected pieces and songs, chosen from a variety of composers. “Cheerily Ho’’— the opening Chorus, was sung with much taste and spirit, and made the old Hall vibrate under its power- ful strains. The piece entitled “ Silver Moon- light Winds are Blowing,” was also sung with much feeling, and was listened to by the audience with marked attention. The Duetts ‘Slowly and Sofily,” and « Larboard Watch,” and the two Quartettes elicited much applause, and seemed to have been duly appreciated. The beauty of voice and the pure expressive style in which ‘The Moon behind the Hill” was sung, produced a powerful impression spon the minds of all present, and was, iu the opinion of some of our highest musical connoisseurs, excellent. The «Julia Waltzes” I listened to with much pleasure—the musical and instru- mental talent displayed by their young com- poser is deserving of the highest praise and en- couragement,and will, I think, be rewarded ere long by their becoming one of our most popular Waltzes. The comic Songs were, for the most part, good, though, perhaps, in some instances, a better selection might have been made, The remaining pieces on the Programme were all well performed ; and the audience dis- persed at an early hour, well pleased with the entertainment. Hoping that this may vot be the last Concert, but that before long they will favour us again, I remain, yours,&c., AUDITOR. ————_—___ > -__ ROAD COMMISSIONERS. We understand that the following persons bave been appointed Rvad Cowmissioners for this Is- land :— Prince Counry— Hubert Gaudet, Lot 2; Richard Keefe, Alberton: Peter Doyle, Lot 7; Joho Callaghan, Lot 11; William Getant, Lot 16; Neil MeNeill, Lot 14; William Lefurgy, Travel- wish, forthe negotiations must have occupied | |er's Reat; Donald 8. McKay, Ferry, Lot 18; some time, the Government of the United States will find therein an additional reason for satisfaction at the bargain they have made. It is .ot impossible that an offer will be forth- coming to purchase British Columbia, or it may be taken without ceremony as a set-off against the damage done by the Alabama, should the larger and bolder proposition of ex- cited partizans to seize upon the whole of Can- ada be discouraged. The commercial wealth of the United States will not be immediately increased through the acquisition of the new territory, but au impres sion exists of there being a great future for it. The largest Russian settlement is Sitka, the capital of the Muscovite possessions, situated on an island at some distance from the main- land ; another place of comparative importange is Fort St. Michael or Michaeloffsky, also on an island very near the continent, aud at the mouth of a mver bearing the name of Kvich- pack, and wihch is two miles wide, extending through the whole of Kussian America, and even a considerable distance int» British Col- umbia. It is described as being as large as the Mississippi, navigable for fifteen hundred miles, and entering the ocean at several places. Such a river will possess great advantaves in a com- mercial point of view as the population increases on its battks, and the Americans, we may be sure, will not allow a country of so much strate- gical importance to remain unoccupied and unused. Fort St. Michael is a post of the Russian Fur Company, and is described as ‘the centre of a great trade with the Indians of the coust aud the interior. It was established for the purpose of securing the trade of all the extreme western portion of North America, and has been very successful in accomplishing its ob- ject. Ageuts of the compay traverse the main- land, and visit the numerous islands in the vicinity, for the purchase of furs, that are ship- ped to New York, St. Petersburg, aud Ham- barg.”” Why Russia, which gives up nothing voluntarily that has fallen inte its hands, should have ceded so iargea territory, aud for so small a sum, might find an explanation in those designs in ghe East to which Muscovite ambition has returned with new energies and resolution It would be advantageous to those designs if England were to be engaged in hostilities with America. The compliments that have been passing between the traffickers in territory have always been supposed to indicate mischief to others, and it was conjecture when the Czar made costly presents to Captain Fox and ether officers, who were sent with the congratulations of their Government upon his escape from the bullet of an assassin, that his Imperial Majesty was sensible of the use that might be made of his Amerean sympathisers on occasion. The diamond snuff-boxes and the jewelled swords were significant of cordiality and of a wish to be closely bound in friendship with the United States : and now the extraordinary gift of the surance double sure of American co-operation upon an emergency, Extremes meet, says the proverb and there are no greater extremes than what are represented by the Republican Presi- dent and the Imperial Cossack. A difficulty in governing and holding British Columbia may be the result of this extraordin- ary transaction, bnt we eannot perceive that any greater inconvenience will be experienced by the British Government. Tfeither Russia or America expected that the disclosure would throw this country into a state of excitement and fary, they will be surprised by the calm ness with which it is universally regarded. The Government of the United States may be- lieve that by possessing Russian America it | will be better able to assert its claim to the whole of the North American gontinent, and check what is si to be s prevailius idea in England, of extending monarchical and are erronepus, ‘ Russian possessions oecprs, as if to make as-|y aristocratical ingtitutions; but American ideas |" 4, Georgetown and the new acquisition is ré-/Repton, in the 76rh year of his age.
