To our thinking, nothing so much concerns a traly British|Commons, should he refuse to bow to the behests of the Constitutione’ Government, after a General Election, as the ascertaining whether their own or the opposition party will have ‘‘a preponderance of force’ in the Legislature. But the Governmvnt, we opine, of which the Wezard speaks, and as we shall, just now, prove by this very editorial of his own, which we have now under consideration, is not a British Con- stitutional Government, but sach a tyrannic one as the pseudo reformers desire to establish. The Wizard proceeds, ** According to their own doctrine, it is their «uty to resicn when they cannot command a majority in the Assembly, and to let the opposition try if they can.’’ True, very true, The still he aims awry. The Government are not yet convinced, neither do they fear that the trial, when it comes, will convince them, that t)ey cannot command a majority in the Assembly ; but, on the contrary they are firmly persuad<d that, by a sufficient majority of the members ef the new Assembly, they will be firmly supported in that course of beneficial and impartial legislation and government which, until they came into power, was altogether unknown in this Colony. But does it not occur to the sapient Wizard that * the| balance of strength being so nearly in equilibrium *’—although ied the possibility of an he has, for a moment, insanely denied t equilibrium-—with whieb party ** the prepon lerance of foree rests, cannoj be clearly ascertained until the meeting of the Jegislature, when the battali a of each party will be promptly exhibited upon the floor of the Assembly. ! Surely then, if the Government were now prematurely to resign the reins of ywer, to shrink from responsibility, and basciy to desert the Governor and abandon their posts in the hour of difficulty and | danger they would indeed be most unworthy of the high position to vhich they -havye attained. and of the confiden: | Bat this they will not do, | reposed in them by the people. even were toe difficulties and dangers which beset their path, inealeulably greater than they are. They will remain firm and steady i the discharge of their important dati ‘'s, until the voice of the peo} le shall unmistak voly eal! upon them to resign the power with which they, and they alone, have invested them. They cannot, perhaps, command success, but they ean—ind we are certain they will—-deserve it. If they should be overcome by a hungry, jealous, and deceitful vey should fall, undermined by the knavish wiles t } » > st.2 } yt they themselves, woui . ? ; - , faction ; if 3 of the Cligue: the people, n greatest recson to mourn their defeat and lament their fall: for their {all would, for a season, certainly be that of our little state ; and vividly and strikingly would it call to vy } ye tne remembrance, in the minds of inany, the glorious picture the poet : ‘A great man strugsling with the storms of fate; And greatly falling with a falling state.” Yes, with the Wizard, we willingly enough say, *‘ when the Government cannot command a majority in the Assembly, let the op} sition try if they can.’’ Yes, that woul L be fair play enourh. But until the necessity for allowing the op yosition fo try arrives, the Government, we are certain, wili most determinedly hold ‘+ the pack ’’ at bay. But now comes the unveiling, by the Worzard, of the delectable prospect of the Conservative Reform, the scope, th glory of their political millennium, when ‘* the wolf shall dwell with the lamb, and the leopard shall lie down with the kid; and the cow and the bear shall feed; their young ones shall lie down together ; and the lion shall eat straw like the ox.”’ But who wil lead these heterogeneous natures, and reconcile these conflicting spirits of the Conservative-Reform Millenni- um? Most certainly not ‘a little child,’ nor anything so pure and innocent — a The Wizard's vision seems, it is true, still obscured by rather more than ** a wee drap in his ee,’’ and his delineation is none of the steadiest ; yet, as having like some dizzy and tWeil wewildered wanderer of the night, a positive knowledge o hewild lerer of the night, a itive knowledge of the direction which he ought to parsae, and of the nature of the object he is in quest of, he flounders on, and indicates clearly enough the haven of rest at which he, in their menial train, hopes with his worthy patrons, to arrive. “ But,” says the Wezard, “when the present snatcher faction is expelled from the Goverument by a vote of want! has been received, and will receive : of confidence, as the present majority will not accept of office, there will be no necessity for commanding a majority ; | and the Legislative business of the Colony may be discharged effectively without embarrassment.” That is to say, self- government would be at once destroyed, by the ignoring of responsibility to the people. For any /egislative purpose, there would, in fact, no longer be a Government at all ; and the beginning of the end which the Conservative Clique so devoutly desire to attain would be fairly began. The Go- vernment would be a body of arrogant incapables, selected from amongst our most contemptible mushroon aristocracy, whose only duty, aim, and object would be the practice of, the most exteusive wepotism which their position and the state of the country would allow them to carry into effect, by the appointment of some of their own brothers, brothers-in-law, sons, sons-in-law, or other members of their families or family connexions, to every office of emolument in the Colony, to be held by them and their heirs for ever and ever. And as for the Assembly, their functions, shorn of all true legislative dignity, would soon degenerate into those of a mere Board of Highway Commissioners and Parish Guardians or Diree- tors, to. vote moneys for the repairs of roads and bridges, and forthe relief of the poor, and particalarly for the support of the needy diving fixtures in the public offices; not for- getting the levying of the necessary assessments; for, although the people would be wholly deprived of all the in- estimable and ennobliug privileges of self-government, their public burthens would be in no case diminished. with respect to taxation, the great probability is, that under such a form of Government, it would be greatly increased ; for were it onee constitutionally established, our Houses of Assemblics would, as they periodically succeeded one another, become more and more degraded and contemptible, uatil, in the end, composed of men of no talent, honor or honesty— for all paths to honorable preferment, by means of faithful service of the country in the Legislature, being closed against those who really could, and would otherwise so serve the country ia the Legislatare, and every thiog like tangible honor or emolument being reserved for the worthless seions | of a wortiless oligarchy —all real guardianship of the liberties, rights and privileges of the people would be abandoned; and the channels of corruption and of mal-appropriation of public moneys being hid from the public view, and q lite beyond public research or restraint, all in the government, in oilice, and in the Legislature, would, al:thouzh in different degrees, s'iare in the corruption ;—and all * One sink of leve# avarice would lic.” Wizard has, in this} sentence, spoken like a most *‘ learned Theban *’ indeed ; but | ARES guadlnpatnamammeenentaipmammmatandn Indeed, | hungry, wrathful, and arrogant Clique, and to allow them | to monopolize all liberty, power, and emolument in the Colony. | Sir Dowminick’s sphere of duty is at present, as we hope it will long continue, above them; and we are certain that it is not his wish that any of his friends should honour, with a defensive notice, what he can only despise. | All therefore that we have now further to say, in connexion | |} with the subject of this article, we shall give nearly in the! words of the London Daily News concerning the present | aspect of the affairs of Great Britain:— We certainly just now have our full share of trouble, m9 the state of our financial affairs, both public and private, may occasion us some anxiety and perplexity; but our troubles There is no charm at the foundation, are all above ground.

Tie wiud hav‘ay been south | west at the time mentioned, he had not the ti. .ble of hauling olf, because he could drift off. I expect that a bank of fog got between hjm and the light, or he fell asleep, dreaming of catching young foxes off the Points, or the croaking of bull- frogs in the New London Ponds. Perhaps he wanted to get | into Malpeque harbour before daylight, to get some Yankee} ' } goods landed without the knowledge of the Custom House | officers; @r perhaps he wanted to follow the example of the man who mistook a great tree in New London Bay for Fish island Light, and run his vessel ashore. have never known a ° 7 e * of | the light to be out when it ought to be seen, and this can be | proved by the testimony of many reliable and respectable wen jin the neighbourhood.
