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 credulity on their part! The Islander knows very well that if the Dominion or Imperial Go- vernment were to devote any sum for the purpose of purchasing proprietory rights, it would be first paid out to owners of Township lands, and every tenant would have to pay for his land just as the occupiers ou the Cunard and Selkirk estates do at present. The diiference would be this, that those repayments would be or other objects beneficial to the whole com. munity, in the same maaner as land funds are in other Colonies. The Islander, with singular inconsistency, says:—*We ave quite prepared to admit, that under circu rstances,’’ (which are not explain- ed,) *‘the public interests of the Colony might demand a law to compel the Proprietors to sell the tee simple of their estates, were they to re- fuse to dispose of them upou being offered a fair compensation. But we believe in this Is- land sach acompulsory law will never be de sirable!’’ This we term remarkable obscurity in the columns of a journal which has been discussing the land question fur years, and whose editor has played an important part in bringin; it to its present position! We cou- fess we are somewhat at a loss to comprehend how, under any circumstances, the public in- terest might demand the enactment of a cer- tain law, and yet that law never be de. irable! The truth is, that the 15 Years’ Purchase sill can be regarded favorably in one point of view only. A tenant who is able to pay for his farm can now purchase the fee simple at a fixed rate, whereas formerly he could not ac- quire it on any terms; but the idea of buyin» a township at that rate is simply absurd, be cause a settlement of the land question implies buying townships rather than single farms, and a settled township let at the usual rate, and al- lowing for some deductions, would realize for its fortunate owner over £16,000! Well, it that is the much boasted settlement, certainly its authors have served the Proprietors’ mter- ests most effectually, bat we don't see that they are entitled to much gratitude from the tenants One of the best estates on the Island, com- prising 6,000 acres on Lot 34, belonging to the Rev. Mr. Moutgomery, was purchased at 4 vate, which, when all expeuses were paid, amounted to 13s. 9d., currency, per acre. We have no desire to see any of the Pro- prietors despoiled cf a single acre; we don’t blame them for oceupying—unless they choose to retain—their present false position; but we wish to affirm this principle: that private rights cannot be allowed to obstruct public im- provements, and we admit that if the public interest demands the resignation of those rights, they must be paid for at their fair present market value, regard being had xo average net income, but not to any prospective value which growth of population or the completion of public works may confer. We would make this further concession, that certain well settlea e and prosperous townships may be worth more than the limit-of the Land Purchase Bill—7s. id. per ucre. But we also ailirm, that a suffi- cient number of voluntary agreements, for the purchase of township lands, have now been made by the Governn ent, and between private parties, to afford a just criterion of value in all cases. The Canard estate embraced every variety of soil and situation, yet the owners considered it to their interest to sell at the limit mentioned in the Laud Purchase Bill, and we see no reason why any higher price should be demanded for contiguous townships.

Is it likely that the brutal wretch would await the coming of the avengers of blood? And then, what would be ieft for the army but to retrace their steps by the route by which they advanced on their bootless expedition—a route which would be abundantly indicated by the bone-cleaning iabors of the jackall and the yulture—those active camp followers— “ All regarding man as their prey— All rejoicing iu his deeay.”’ That it may be but a fitting assertion of the duty of a Government to protect its subjects from oppression when and where imposed, we admit: but where the attempt to perform that duty may only lead to the cruel death of those subjects, and can, under no possible state of affairs, affect the sole author of the wrong, might it not be better and cheaper to ransom the captives by ample satisfaction of even Ais sreed?

We sincerely hope that our anticipations of | failure may not be realized—that the returning army may produce the living subjects of their mission—that King Theodore may recoguize the power whose wrath he has provoked; but we fear that the result, beyond shewing that the Goverumeat and people of Great Rritain save dove all in their power in vindivation of the national honor—outraged in the persons of her representative and other subjects—will be nif, Let us hope. however, that the brave men detailed for this service—a service caleu- lated only to confer honor for the high but un- eXciting virtue of severe sufferings, borue with the courage and fortitude of the hero and the martyr, may not become the victims of official incompetence and red tapeism,--that the stupid blunder of sending three or four British officers to Constantinople, for the purpose of procuring ee in that market—a market which never exhibited any animals of the kind, and a place where the only ones’ still existing are of the relies of the Crimean war—may not be paral- leled in the various difficulties in which the novelties of the situation may involve the several departwg;ital officers in charge of the Abyssiniau Expedition. _ <p The election in St. John city, occasioned by ~ the acceptance of the Atturney-Generalship by A.
