* x Ghe Craminer, they will clearly slew that they do not want to emancipate their eynstituents from abject slavery to the proprictary sys- tem, and that they are unworthy of r staining their present high p sition. Mr. Palmer declares thatit woud be a breach of faith with the British Government for the local Executive to entertain the loan question pending the award of the Commissioners. If that be true, his (iovernment are guilty of a most flagrant breach of faith. Two Estates have been purchased. since the Commissioners were appointed —the Selkirk property avd Lot 54. These propertics haye been bought with money borrowed on the credit.of the Colony. If it be wrong to purchase town- ship lands under the auspices and with the eredit of the Imperial Government, is it ri cht to effeet.such purchases with the very sleader means or the @ouabtful credit of the Colony? If Mr. Palmer's premises ave correct, his Government have committed @ great error in purchasing an acre of the properties referred to. If those premised are unsound, as we believe they are, } then Mr. Seeretary Pupe has takes a proper view of the whole question in advocating an extension of the provisions of th Purchase Bill. For the present, we shall leave the Colonia) Secretary and his Leader to settle as best they can, this extra- ordinary difereuce of opinion. cetera tentoeepeyeremeengnncneene Tus junior servant of the Executive Council has occupied a column in tle last Monitor with the most vile personal abuse of the editor of this paper.

Colonial and United States Mails were reeeived hero on Saturday evening. The only important intelligence furnished relates to the civil discord in the neighbouring Republic, The war fever in the South appears to haye become more violent thancver. The slaveholding States are following, one after | another, the mad career of the South Carolinians, and the} Federal Government is now in the midst of a revolution that threatens a speedy disruption of the Union. Onc of the most significant facts as to the breadth and intensity of the revolu- | tionary feeling is the retirement from the Cabinet of all the leading minds that surrounded Mr. Buchanan at the com- mencement of his administration. We give below such) portions of the news as we can find room for. UNITED STATES. The War spirit is fully up in the South,—and we much tear that ere long some desperate collision will take place yetween the Government authorities and the Secessionists. [n our Jast issue we stated that the Steamer Séar of the West had been fired into by the South Carolivians, while endeavouring to land reinforcements for Major Anderson. | | We anxiously wait to see what action the General Govern- | ment will take in that matter. Governor Letcher, of Virginia, in his message, refers to ithe trouble that threatens: calls upon all true patriots to | exert themselves to save the country from impending evils ; | he is desirous that there should be a convention oe! a] the Siates, and aids—* It is monstrous to sce a government | like ours destroyed merely because men caunet agree about | 'a domestic institution.

Can”Donald Curry make no better use of the Government stationery than in writing silly libels against members of the Opposition? Was the flunkey put in the Council Office to do work for the people, or to blackguard those who cannot approve of his master's Government? It is ery certain that bo does not perforin any necessary work in the Council Office. Mr. Desbrisay does the whole of that work, asusual. It appears to be Donald's business to lounge about the ofice—throw his awkward legs over the back of a chair, and invent lies sq silly that an idiot might be ashamed of them, and the most abanJoned wretch in the lowest sink of iniquity | would blash if accused of their perpetration. His Excellency the Lieut. Governor is certainly not happy in the choice of waterials for the defence of his Administration when a brain- Jess puppy lik» Curry has to be subsidized at the public ex- pense, to set aside p ablic questions, and deal in priyate slander. If we accuse the Government of incapacity in administering | the public affairs, we are to be told that we were in Shediac | saven years az0—visited the saloons, drank with the men and | eracked jokes with the girls. This is an admirable answer to an attack upon the Government If we remind Mr. Dundas that the motley crew he hac around him is driving the veasel of state to destruction, Donald Curry is ready with the clinch- Ang acswet—**Sir, you forgeé that you drank liquor on board the Fairy Queen something less than a dozen years ago.” We haxe no dout Curry supposes that this style of defence is very effective. Ile writes to suit the taste of his masters, and if they are not capable of appreciating any thing better than the garbage which heets before them, it is not so much his fault as their misfortune. But we had nearly forgotten to notice, in referenee to the story about our trip in the Fairy Queen and visit to Shediac, that it is false im every particular, as must be apparept to any intelligent reader who can distingsish between probable and improbable tlings. We never spent a whole night in Shediac at any time of our life —never entered a ** ssloon”’ there, and dun't believe there is any thing of the kind in th qgasce.. We never made a trip from Shedice te Charlottctow: in tie Fairy Queen, and aever used or saw any liqu.r on board that vessel. Dona'd Curry says be believes that hiv falec statement will be verified un reference ty the Mesers. Walsh, of Summerside. The parties referred to had 9 seiling nacket runuing between Shedtae and Bedeque when the Fairy Queen was oa the same line. James and Geerge Walsh were the owners aud e.mmanders of that paces. James is now in Europe, and George has been for seven) yoars in his graye. lt will, there’ore, be seen at a gl:noe that the Government dunkey ra @ no risk in pe‘crring ty these p rties for a yerif- cation of his lies. Dotiald thinks he is great ia drawing the picture of a drunken man. Le ouglit to be. Ue has h d opportunities enough for studyin : the prt ic that smoky shinty at the West River, where, io his younger days, the boy Curry could con template the physiology of a broken-dowa old man, bearing his own name, whose normal couditien was bestial drunken- ness; and who covld not dispense with his supply of **white- eye”’ until painfully convinced that the darned stocking in the sooty rafter wus emptied of its last baudee. > oe + Tue Governmen: party are, we understand, extremely busy in settling the Land Question. As an earnest of their good | intentions, about three hundred writs against the tenantry | have been issued, since the closing of the Commissiozers’ | Court, from the ollices of gentlemen holding high positions in | the Administration; and several cases have come to our! knowledge where the payment of one year’s rent, as recom- | mended by the Coinmiasogcrs, was found to be no guarantee | against harsh proceedings on the part of the landholders. | Nothing short of the foll pound of flesh, in the shape of arrears, will satis! y some of the proprietary Shylocks. These proceedings may put a little money in the pockets of the land | agents and the lawyers; but they are sure to scttle al! ques- tions relating to the leasehold tenure in a way not desired by the proprietors; and they will settle the Government, too, that lean for support on landlords and land speculators, _— ——- — + wee A QUESTION FOR THE ORGANS. Tue Government organs have, for several weeks, dis- coursed what they consider very fine music for the Govern- ment regarding their speculation in the purchase of the | Selkirk Estate. We have been told that the transaciion is eure to be self-sustaining, because the settlers have already | paid in, on account of the purchass of their farms, the enor- | mous sum of two thousand pounds! Why, the settlers on the Worrell Estace paid, jast autumn, an instalment of fifteen hundred pounds, which was merely ope out of many other itoria from Frazer River. the hasty action of South Carolina, which has taken her) Southern sisters by surprise.
