TERMS FOR PURCHASE OF LANDS IN THE SECOND SETTLEMENT. _ 1. The Company has determined upon the formation of a Second Settlement upon its territories in New Zet.lanl, the site of which will be selected by an expedition to be forthwith despatched for that purpo.T. It is intended that the site chosen shall I.e the best that • may be available at the time of the selec tion being made, and that the position with reference to Port Nicholson and the rest of New Zealand shall be such, that the lands may reasonably be expected to advance in value with the utmost rapidity. The Company therefore hereby offers for sale 201,000 acres of land in the proposed Second Settlement, upon the following terms 2. The lands are offered in 1,000 allotments of 201 acres each. Each allotment will consist of three sections, viz. 150 acres cf rural land, 50 acres of accommodation land in the im mediate proximity of the town, and 1 town acre. The town will therefore comprise 1,000 acres, exclusive of reserves for public objects, such as streets, squares, churches, cemetries, markets, and public gardens or parks. 3. The price of each lot, of 201 acres will be 300/. 4. A deposit of 301. on each allotment must be paid to the Company's Bankers, s!essrs. Smith, Payne, and Smiths, and the Bankers's receipt produced and filed previous to any appli cation being registered at the Company's House. The re sidue of the purchase-money will be required on a day of which public notice will be given. In case of default in pay ment of such residue by the day appointed, the deposit will thereupon become forfeited to the Company, together with all claim of the applicant to the land applied for. 5. On payment of his full purchase-money, each purchaser will receive for each 300 i. so paid, three separate land-ordrs, viz. for the 150 acres of rural land, the 50 acres of accommo dation land, and the town-acre respectively. These lands are to be severally seleetected according to priority of choice, to be determined by lot, as hereinafter mentioned. - _ 6. Three several ballots for priority of choice of the rural sctions, accommodation sections, and town sections, in manner to be arranged by the Directors, will take place at the Com pany's House in London, in the presence of the Directors and of such purchasers or their agents as may attend, on days of which public notice will be given. The choice of the allot ments of which priority shall have been tso determined, will take place in the settlenimt as soon after the arrival of the first body of Colonists as the requisite surveys and plans shall have been,coniPlete(l, and under such regulati - oris as shall be pre acribedby the;Company's Agent duly authorised in that behalf. Neglect sae refusal to comply with such regulations in regard to any section % shall occasion a forfeiture of the purchaser'sright of choice, and vest it in•the .Company's- officer on behalf of such purchaser. 7. The Company engages, subject to .an arrangement with'. her Majesty'S-Ggrvernmect c to add to the 201,000 acres offered for sale, a quantity equal to ; one-tenth thereof as- native re• reserves, su that the quantity of land to'be appropriated will, in fact, eonsiA of 221,000 acres, and the town of 1,100 acres. The plan of the Native Reserves in the First Settlement will be followed, unless the regulations of her Majesty's Go vernment or any unforeseen difficulty should prevent its adoption. 8. The Company reserves the right of purchasing a num ber, not exceeding 100 of the 1,100 Lots offered for Sale, for its own benefit, at the same price, and subject to the same terms in every respect, as other purchasers. 9. The sum of 301,000/, to be received by the Company as the purchase-monies of the Lands now offered, will be appro priated in the following manner, viz.---- £150,000 to the exclusive purpose of Emigration to this par ticular settlement. 50,000 to defray the Company's expenses in selecting the site and establishing the settlement. Any surplus of this fund to be applied to the public purposes next mentioned. 59,000 to public purposes, for rendering the settlement com modious and attractive. As such pnrposes, it is in tended to apply 15,030/. to reli , zious uses and en dowments for colonists of all denominations, 15,000/. to the establishment of a College in the settlement, and 20,000/ towards the encouragement of steam navigation, for the benefit of the settlement, by way of bounty. 50,000 to the Company, for its expenses and profit on the -- use of its capital. £300,000 Total. The Company undertakes to apply the purchase monies in the proportions stated, as nearly so as may be practicable, to the several objects previously specified. 10. The whole of the Emigration Fund, with the exception of 20,0001., will be expended in conveying to the New Set tlement Labouring persons ergible according to the regula tions now in force with reference to the First Settlement. The 20,0001. will be reserved as a Special Fund, out of which, and to that extent only, allowances will be made to the pur chasers towards the cost of cabin-passages for themselves, their families, and servants, to the Settlement. The amount of the allowance will in no case exceed 2.51. per cent. of the purchase-money paid by the Colonists ; and the Fund being limited as above-mentioned, preference wal be given to the A.ppliCants for the allowance in the order of their respective applications for the same. Particular Regulations relative to the mode of obtaining Cabin passage Allowances will he here after issued; but it is to be distinctly understood, that the Di rectors reserve the power of granting, withholding, or adjusting the .same, according to the merits of each particular ease, and that no appliqation for the allowance will be ascertained, under any circumstances, after the expiration of the present yaar. 11. The Directors reserve a discretionary power of suspend ing the sales to the pu'Aic generally, in ci:se they should find it necessary to reserve a iy number of allotments for Salc to actual Colonists. _ _ 12. The Register of Applications will be opened on Mon day, the Ist of March next, until which day no applications will be noticed. Written applications for allotments will thenceforth be received and registered by the Secretary of the Company, until a day of which public notice will be given, when the land•orchns will be awarded strictly according to priority in the Register of Applications and to the result of the ballots ; and all Deposits received will be returned, in case, by reason of the above rule of priority, or from any other cause, the Directors shall be unable to award the retptired land orders to the whole of the applicants.

MEMOIR OF MDLLE. RACHEL. Mdlle. Eliza Rachel Felix was born at Munf, in the canton of Arau, in Switzerland, March 24, 1820. Her rather, et. Felix, was a native of Metz. Her mother's maiden name was Esther I-lava. Her father, at the time of her birth was, like most French Jews, a hawker ; he travelled from fair to fair with his numerous family. A parson who saw them at Beaucaire, in 1829, relates that Mdlle. Rachel was then a very fechle child, but that her deportment was not deficient in either grace or dignity-. There was already sonietbing in. her a,nnounciia;•' the germs of her splendid talents, and the brighness of her eyes and the ardeney of. their expression gave promise, inure especially, of future .distinction. In 1831, when when at the age of .ten years,• she was•sent by her father to take.lessons of one M. Choron, a teacher of singing. Being desirous of devoting herself' ekclusively to the tragic drama, she bade adieu to her felloW-pupils at Choron's at the • end - of - ten maths, and proceeded to join a class for th e p raet i eeo f daamation, unde r th e p r o , fessorship of aM. St-Aulaire, Like many other per sOns'ef ezninant talents, she wodestined to be mistaken by her early preceptors. Ms St.. Auldire was entirely deceived with respect to her. He took, indeed, very little notice of her, and at length, without giving him self any Teal trouble to ascertain whether she had any capacity for the stage, he neglected her altogether, al lowing her merely to be present at the lessons received by the other scholars. At length, by •accident, perhaps, he gave liar some finer parts, which she played with success, first on the little stage of the Prado, which had been granted to him :or the use of his scholars, and afterwards at- the Salle Mdlle. Rachel was then 14 years of age. In the part of Esther she succeeded in gaiifing considerable applause, and began to reveal the resources which she ifterwards developed. alieady possessed the power of extending-, as it were, her stature, and of chaining the attention cf the spectator with an irresistible force re sembling fascination. At length, on the 27th October, 1836, Mdlle. Rachel was admitted to attend the lectUres at the Conservatoire, and was there placed in the class of dramatic studies, directed alternately by Michelot, Samson, and Provost. She continued her studies 'till January 24, 1837, when she quitted the institution volun tarily, and entered into an engagement with the Gym nast, Dramatique, where she- made her debut April 24, 1837, in a drame-vaudeville, entitled La Vendeenne.. We have now to recount an act of generosity which is almost without example in the annals of the theatre. M. Poirson, the manager of the Gymnase, had a right to the services of Mlle. Rachel at a very Moderate salary, and could have commanded them for a very considerable time, but the conscience of this excellent man refused to allow him to take advantage of his position. One day when Mdlle. Rachel arrived at the theatre -enveloped in her humble red tartan for the rehearsal of a new part, Poirson sent for her to his room : "My dear child," said he, "I am - proud of having made you known, at a-moment when everybody deserted yon. I have no doubt that my theatre would be indebted to you for a series of brilliant nights, but I cannot prevail upon myself to keep down, for the sake of my pecuniary in terest, your soaring flight, to refuse you the air which your genius requires in order to expand its wings. You are a 'statute too grand and too beautiful for such a pedestal. Rachel, tragedy is dead at the Theatre Fran cais—so and recal Lazarus to life." "What do you say, sir•? Do3rou dismiss me ?" said with tears in. her eyes the, poor girl, who was now begin ning fbr the first time in her life to taste, if not the luxu ries of fortune, at least the happiness of ease--" but what will become of me ?" " I `will place you in the position which you ar3 born to fill. You belong to me for three years longer. I dis solve this engagement, which is solely to my advantage. You n.re free; but I shall continue to pay your salary till the clay of your debut at the Theatre Fra,nc:ziA. With re spect to your appearance on the stage, do not trouble yourself about it—confide in me." The celebrated Samson of the Theatre Francais under too'; the tinishing'of her dramatic edu c ati on , and was wits the most 'laudable zeal that he superintended her stu lies and practice. After some months of persevering pre7tration and of valuable iestruction, the bills of the Th!atre Francais announced the debut of :Wile. Rachel Felt in the character of Camiik, in. " Les Horaces." It was on Tuesday, June 12;1838. The very first entry of the debutante caused astonishment. Her gait was not the movement, more stiff than noble, consecrated by stage tradition. H er recitation was not th e u sual diction in musical notas. Her verses were not scanned, so •to say, .by slices, nor delivered with pluses at every rhyme. The public • found themselves put out from the very commencement, and began to seek a solution of the riddle. Indivichals Were - seen Molting at one another with astonishment an d enr i os i ty ; none dared to speak nor to interrupt by applause, and in a short time they were all eyes and cars for what was pass i ng on the stage ; fo r , i n the acting of Mdll e . R achel everyt hi ng h a d its signifi cance ; her eyes, her mouth, her arms, her feet, the mo tion of her head, all had their proper expression, which no one wished to lose. At the end of the third act the audience began to discuss with astonishment the unfore seen revolution which was now to take place in the theatre. The fourth act proved a brilliant triumph for the youthful tragedian. But we need not here go through the series of her dramatic triumphs ; suffice it to say, that in every new character in which she appeared she at once astounded and delighted the public. Mdlle. Rachel is said to be a person not of merely histrionic talent, or of tact for thea triCal declamation, but of an eleVated, ardent, susceptible (though externally cold), and richly-endowed nature. The following are a few amongst the anecdotes respect- ' ing her which have of late years abounded in the Parisian journals - On one occasion whilst dining at the house of a distin guished patroness of letters, and on its being observed that few fortunes are larger than those of theatrical fa vourites of the public, she said qttietly—" As for me,: I do not want money ; I desitO JAW n oahings, glory and fri?nds." , Mad. de —, wllo present ;at this party, so : , lieicd lldle. Rachel .so ,urgcnitly.ta: honour .one .of her so 'ices with her prescribe, that the young actress, could . no'..resist = the flattering e4rnestness -.of-the invitation. Th , evening arrived, , and Af. Oh - lteaubriand.mad his appearanee'jn the salon. • After havingheard Mdlle, Raehel,hq said to her, with the solemn melancholy peculiar to him-- 7 ‘‘. Whata pity; Made noiselle, that_ one cart .only . ,sea•• such .things rise at the momenkwhen ,one is aboutto die." :'.Monsieur,'. Rachel,;with sweat accent of affection, " th:,79..are men who never -1- • " o.i one occasion, after a performance, some• passagei were pointed out to her Which she had pronounced less happily than the rest. She was advised to repeat them on he: return to her lodOlg-•. " Evening studies are the bast," some one s;:il to her. " With me," she replied, "nothing can compensate for my morning studies ;" and on saying this she held out her hand to her preceptor, M. Samson. with whom she passed her mornings in studying. Notwithstanding this affec tionate declaration, we may observe that it is whilst in bed, mentally and by reflect:on only, tnat Mdlle. _Rachel prepares henie:f for those splendid and powerful effects which agitate her audience and force them to enthusiastic applause. Some person, hoping to flatter her, observed that the actors who played with her placed her talents in relief, whilst she on the other hand rendered their de fects more prominent.. "I am sorry fbr it," she replied ; "ly,hen I am on the boards of the Theatre, Francais I dotild :wish that only one thing were" evident—viz., the kindness which every one has shown me." She appreciates 'very properly the objection of want of sentiment which has been made - to her acting. " seek," she savS, ." but when I wish to reach the accen tuation which corresponds to the sentiment as I conceive it, my voice is false." In speaking thus she is musically correct. Talmo, had the same defect. Mille. Rachel is an aWectionate (laughter and a gene-, mu; sister ; she has shared her fortune with her whole famFy. She interests herself with a touching solicitude in the education of her brother and her sisters. Accord ing. to . 'sOme French accounts, her home is. a - nursery ground 'of tragic actors. Her brother, it is 'said, is on the point of realising- the hope o r succeeding on the stave, which he conceived on witnessing the brilliant sue-, cess of his sister. She is now the soul of the Theatre Fran cais—she is the main spring which moves this rusty ma eatifstir as Corneille and chine. She haS succeeded in banishing the wrinkles which defaced the brew ofits olden traedy, which had previon sly lost all its freshness and vigour ; her breath has restored t, Mdlle. Rachel a vital colour to its cheeks—its eyes, •too, have bean to beam with a youthful ardour—its heart to beat with the Racine titst conceived it in the realms of their poetical agination. hack l.l()le ' l e t e a s 6 of t b s l b, rgigrahitieds,t.ft(llladyb.

A settlement has been cornindllOttl by American citizen:, and others, on the navigable waters of the Columbia, a:id whether protected h t y the Govern ment of , the United States, or forced to prot ct themselves, they must succeed ; for when has the enterprise of Ame ricans in settling or colonising been unsucheasffil ? "'Steam-boats now annually ascend the !Missouri River until they arrive at within less than 1,000 miles of the month ot the Columbia. The climate of>tlie west coast of America is . not only more evenly tem - 4mA, but for more Sallibriona' than that of the east. The Columbia River is a magnificent stream, watering .en extensive country, navigable for 100 miles for ships of the first clas3, and constituting the- outlet of a fertile. region. " Let us look forward: to the commencement of' the next century, we have to anticipate only sixty years, and where will be the limits of the population': of the fertile regions of the Mississippi and its tributalies ? Will it not arrive at the base of the • Rocky Morintains ? Will not the Oregon territory be - the centre . o f n Valuable coin- - merce on the Pacific! ? It cannot be doubted. The cur rent of emigration is setting west, with 'e force that ria• human power can arrest. And whoeall.donbt that, .cre the close of the present century, we shall receive the teas, silks; ,and spices of India and China, &ohm; the Oregon territory ? From the port of Canton to the mouth of . the Columbia River is about 7,500 milek;: from Canton to Panama, about 11,200 miles ; from Panama to Bos ton, about-2,700 miles ; and in one of thOnost dangerous seas of the ocean. From the mouth of t h e Columbia. River to Boston is ab0ut.2,450 miles, while from Boston to Canton, via Cape of Good Hope, is in :4d than 13,000 miles ; making a difference of more than t5,X)00 miles in favour of the route by the Columbia River over that by Cape of Good Hope, and about 4,000 over that of Panama. " Let us suppose a railroad in operation from the Co lumbia River to Boston. The distandei wallowing for sinuosities, • cannot exceed 3,600 miles. , ;Allowing the rate of travel to be fifteen miles per houreit will require ten days to travel from Boston to Columbia, River ; and allowing sixty days (or twentyninc by= strum) for pas sage from Caotun To Columbia River, we have seventy days from Boston to Canton, and we can. have not merely Zhe news, but a cargo from the port of Canton to Boston in less than 80 days, which is sooner than the ship could arrive at P anama f rom Canton, allowing the same rate of sailing which I allowed the ship to arrive at the Columbia in GO days. Can there, be a doubt but that this will be the route of communication iti less than 60 years ? , . , " Admitting a ship canal to -be shade- across the Isthmus of Panama, can it compete with the Columbia route, when a large proportion of the piodndts of China, which arrive at Boston, find a market, of consumption west of Boston, and that this market is ally; increasing ? " It will be seen, by reference to the Maps and charts of that coast, th a t from the Isthmus of Darien to the head of the Gulf of California, a distance of 2,300 miles, there are but about six harbours where . ships may- re main with safety during the stormy season, and that five of these are to be found in the vicinity . of Central Ame rica, confined within the limits of 700 miles of coast, and the sixth is to be found at the head of the Gulf of California, surrounded by an uninhabitable and waste country. Of these harbours there is not one that pos sesses those natural resources absolutely necessary to its becoming a place of importance. " Froth the extremity of the peninsula of Lower Cali- . fornia to Gray's Harbour, in lat. 47 N., a . distance of nearly 2,000 miles, we find but five harbours and the Riyer Columbia, three of which are Santa Margarita, in let. 24 N., San Francisco, in 30 N., anchhe bay of TodoB Santos, in lat. 31 N. These harbours are all to be found on the rocky and moun t a i nous coas t ' o f t h e pe"ninsula, which affbrds no resources whatever,: -not even it - supply •of - good water. We - then arrive at San Diego, in let. 22 deg. 20 min. N., situated in Upper California. This_is. a safe but small. harbour. Here we find a country capable of affording some of the neees-saries of. commerce, bread stuffs, provisions, oil, wine, and fruits. From this to San Francisco, in let. 38', a dis tance of about 500 miles, the coast, although • •tolbrding numerous roadeteads suitable for anchorage daring the summer mooths, has no safe harbour.. North of San Francisco there is no good harbour until you pass • the Columbia River ; for this river, although navigable for a considerable distance, cannot be described as a good or safe harbour. Like most navigable rivers, it must be se cure from storms and gales when once the ship is safely within its• mouth ; but the obstruction to easy or safe ac cess by a dangerous shoal and bar must ever render it a hazardous point of ingress, and more especially in heavy or dark weather. The mouth of the Columbia River, from the 'extremity of Cape Disappointment to that of Point Adorez, is seven and a half miles wide. From Cape Disappointment to the outer line of the shoal is five and a half miles ; ft-Om the outer line of the shoal to either point is six miles •, and from either point the minimum breadth of the shoal is two miles and a half. The shoal con/inues within the two points or capes, and occupies six miles of the whole breadth of the river. There are two channels through this shoal ; the one on the south •• side at Point Adams is narrow,. obstructed by a bar, and the depth of water not given. The north channel, passing along by Cape Disappointment, is about one mile wide, and has about six fathoms of water. At the distance of two and three fourths miles from the point commences a: bar having about four fathoms water, and extending out about two miles nearly to the outer line of the shoal. The length of• the bar from shoal to shoal is about two miles. Arther-feature of — this shoal is, that, from its pro jecticin' out and lac the points _of • the , capes, the ' channel '• is subject to 'frequent alteratiense;, Eq much so,• 'that, • lit` the apse of a Storm, the channel ,• i ..iieldorn ato ,heefeund 'ate the •samo' place, •ar Which' it was previous to the.stprm ; thus ,reintkering• the, access to the river difficult and dangerous. And so wide and open is the ocean, thatthere ia!atways a heavy Swtell; and when the wind is aboutea gentle breeze there ii a breaker eqqitei'nerois_tb,e iyar,, and there is. no .liaising it etc: pt when the wind and tide mire both very. With-. out the bar there is no anchorage, .old, /here have ille,OM Itistaffeegiii the winter "season of ships laying off and on 3Q days Waitinfr-fdrin oPpurtunity to pass ;;and a-'good pilot is always neelled. Tel - haps-there haye _been- more lives lost here in proportion to the inimber of y1i.,,,,p who haVe entereid the'ill'er; thAti in 'entering al Hoot any other' harbour in the world. 'the number of Yessels that enter this ricer is very limited, yet, in 1811, the TOnquin, from NeW York, lost eight men in crossing the bar ; in 1827. the ship William and Anne was cast away a little within the capes and lost. In 1833 a JapaneSe junk was cast away, and 14 out of 17 men were lost. About 30 miles south of Point Adams, not far from tfie shore, is the wreck of an unknown ship ; it is 'not known by whom she was owned, or where from ; Makin five diSasters at the mouth of this river, and the total IOSs of four of the ships. Of late the calamaties have been less frequent than formerly, and when business shall require or be suf ficient to authorise steam-boats for the purpose of towing ships over time bar, the delays and dangers would be greatly diminished.' , . ." The country borderin; on the river fbr Some, distance from the mouth is mountainous, and posSesses but few of these qualities necessary to render - it a desirable location, until the interior or upper country shall become Imo- pointed and affore the means for an active, commerce. Ascending the aiver •to Fort Vancouver and the mouth of the Nultenoma, we ' find a country suitable for agricultural purposes. The winters are mild, the summers agreeable, and the soil productive. Even the mountains will become of value for thelr t abitodant supply of timber and naval stores, there being... a ready market for these articles in the more southern ports of the Pacific. Even now a large quantity of lumber IS shipped to the island of Palm, together with salmon, flour y , butter, and cheese. • " A large portion of this territory is well calculated for grazing ; the winters being mild and requiring but little forage. The forests are magnificent, and the timber of various qualities suitable for naval or civil architecture. The country is well watered with abundant streams. Th e .Niiltenoma from its source runs for more than 130 mites, and joins the Columbia about 85 miles from the sea. 'The• Kalis River from its source rums north more than 175 miles, and emp ti es into the Columbia, ab ou t 8 5 m il es above the Nultenoma. The Umga, and.M`Leod's rivers have their i,ources on the west of the Nultenoma, and run west - to the ocean. There are 'numerous other branches of the Columbia, besides a number of smaller rivers emptying m o o the ocean south of M'Leod's River. The Sacramento River has its source in. - the Oregen territory, and, after running south and eouth-west for more On 450 miles, empties into the bay of San Francisco, in Upper California. This; river is navigable for about 150 miles, running through a most delightful valley, in many places stretching out its wide plains, and covered with luxuriant . grass. The climate- is most evenly temperate and healthy. This river has name tributaries,. which take their rise in, and flow from the mountains, affording facilities for - all the valuable pur poses to which water power may be. applied. Large quantities of live oak are to be found in various sections of the valley ; while the . mountains afford pine, cedar, spruce, and fir, of most magnificent 'size. From the source of the Nultenonia, south to the - navigable wtorp , PRWE sd. it 41A*3 Sacramento, is only 175 miles, and from the SOUrN of FA Nifer to the sique point on the Sacrai_nento i but 150 miles. Irmo the source of Fa!ls Iliver IV tha. - .. of the Sacramento is faxAit 00101 ,, 5, and i:orn the sou, - CE .

But especially would it be of importance to the inhabitants of that territory that no other situation pessessinggreater advantages than the Columbia River Shen iif n their immediate vicinity, be in possession of eorrie foreign and perhaps unfriendly pee- er. That such a pubit doe§ exist Is easily demonstrated. "The Bay of Batt Yrancisco, in Lipper California, pos sesses, advantages to which the Columbia River can never avire. Capt. B. Hall, R.N., after having , . visited Califor nia; in 1 1 , 1 122, says, The harbour of San Francisco is one of the best and moat interesting, from its security and tntilitude i in 66 world.' In conclusion he says, I would flimark that California, viewed as a maritime sta tion, is unriv2ikd by any other section of the west coast of America. The port of San Francisco affords the most ledisse anchorage for inunerOna fleets, with facilities for establishing; wharfs, docks, .and arsenals of all descrip tions : the climate Lis one of the best and most healthy I have ever visited, and the country is one athe most fer tile.' lie further states that Upper California is capable orailifpnrtinT a population of 24 millions, and from its geographical position its possesses very great advantages on account of the exptTlitiotu; and easy intercourse which it can maintain with Jape li,`.''.tine, the Ph:_lippine Islands, India, Australia, and all ih island's of the Pacific. ." A Into li;ngliA writer, who has resided in Mexico, and had California, while remarking upon the proposed ship ettiMi iterssaa the Isthmus of Darum, ob serres,—sqf ever this rotli , Siatsdi be observed, Califorwa will then be one of the most iliftnissing commercial situ ations In the world. It would in that case be the point of' rendes:roils fur all vessels engaged in OM trade between Europe and Asia - by that route. It is nearly mid-voyage between,these.,twn.etstintales i ' and would furnish plant sions and all naval supplies in the most ample abundance; arid most probably would becattie . ft mart for the interchange 'of the three. continents. No of hty s tation in the course of the route would Ise in any way enual to California.. Its coasts are, healthy, its harbours excetic7l,t7 and its ca pacity to produce materials. for ship-buildingl; ll 4 marine stores is almost without limits. ' , lf, therefore, there .should ever exist a sufficient population to maintain a sepa,mtte sovereignty, or the occupiers of the country be of a quality and character capable of taking advantage of those resources, Mexico, instead of being able to reduce California, would be obliged to succumb to it, Taking every circumstance into account, perhaps no country whatever can excel, or hardly vie with, California in natural advantages. Its' geographical situation is such as one would point out if he was desired to select the most favourable situation in the world. Its topographical relatluna are also most favourable. It stretches along the shore of the Pacific Ocean, and thereby enjoys al! the manifold advantages of a maritime country. By its great extension from north to south 'settlers have also the option of selecting a nib - nate suitable to their health or views. And I think it safely may be asserted that there is no country of the same extent which possesses so many natural and local advantages. California is designed by nature to be the medium - of connecting com mercially Asia with America, and as the depot of trade between two vast continents, whiCa possess the elements of unbounded commercial interchange; the one Over flowing with all the rich and luxurious commodities always characteristic of the east, the other • possess ing a superabundance of the precious metals,. and other valuable productions, to give in exchange.. The same writer obserVes, ' It has been proposed to the Mexican Governmet, that it should endeavour to cancel the English debt, which exceeds 50,000,000 dollars, by a transfer of California to the creditors. The cession of such a disjointed part of the republic would be an ad uantage to Mexico, and in no case Cllll it ever be pro fitable to the Government, as .it cannot possibly remain united to it for any length of time. If California was ceded for the English debt, the creditors might be formed into a company, With - the difference that they should have a sort of sovereignty over the territory, somewhat in the manner of the East India Company. This would certainly bring it revenue in time, which might. be equal to the interest of the debt, and under good management, and with an English population, would most certainly realise all that has been predicted of this flag country.' " I have quoted froin 'thess English writers for three Objects To corroborate my own rernarlts respect ing the - value of this territory (I 'pper California).-2. To show that the .i.';uglish roding community and the Government have more in!'orm4on Kcspecting a country which is entirely separated from any of theirposseasionS than-the. people or the Government of the United States have, although it borders on their own territory for more ilien 800 miles, and from its position and advantages -mast everpossesssa commanding inlluLace over it. 3. To - confirm the opinion advanced—that England is now • disposed to negotiate with 'Mexico for the acquisition of the Bay of San - Francisco' and.the - territory of Upper California. There cannot be in the Mind of any person intimately acquainted with 'the bay of San Frane:seo, a. doubt bet that it Will becOme the most commanding point of all Pacific America, whether we take into consideration the productions of its ,soil, its. commerce, or its ma ritime power. There is no point of all Pacific America that unites a moiety or advantages that are to be found in the bay, and it is free-from all objections. It com- ' blues the most salubrious climate, produce soil, capaciotis and safe harbours, and fine rivers, with the best geo graphical situation Of any point on the - Pacific Ocean, and I might add, (without fear of .error), in the known world. "If the proposition made to the Mexican Govern ment to cede California to the English should be accom plished—placing. the all-important harbour of San Fran cisco in possession of the most powerful naval and commercial kingdom—one which has now plmost ex clusive power on the opposite shore of the Pacific Ocean,—would it not ruin the prospects of the Orregon territory ? Is it not that point which England would be most anxious to acquire ? a port to which the numerous ' ships on the India station might repair, o recover from'the effect of the climate of India, and where she might Cook over the broad Pacific, and see that all tibeyed.her com mand. Is it not important, then, that;,Ostead of per mitting it to fall into the hands of our most dangerous rivals, it should be united to our own territory ? And, although I may be accused of presumption,' I cannot re frain from saying that the present, appears u favourable opportunity for the accomplishment of this desirable, ob-, jeet;'Wtfeh'Clll6tiatiiin is pjfil:4; Which must leave Mexica a,l rdeildr , . tTY this' G overntrient—wh en she - is not in the most favourable situation.to cancel- the claim,' and, would prolAlybeglal to transfer California on a ccount it. I am ,cenfident , that unieSs Upper California is :purdhased 6f itiekido;. it kill cost the United States a greater -sum--to defend the Oregon territory - from -the rivalry ,of. California, than the purchase would . now• amount to. For - we must not suppose that • California is • to -reinaili Stationary, or under' the control of the 'Alexi .dan GavernMent; -while all the parts of the earth are int movement,.if.not advancing.

I--------• ------- STEAM REGULARITY.—RENIARKABLE Co- ISCIDENCE.—At a dinner at the City of Limdcn Tavern, of Steam Proprietors, on the sth instant, 'Wolverly Attwood, Esq., M.P., in the Chair, Christo pher Claxton, Esq., the Managing Director of the Great Western Steam Ship Company, in eulogising the exec!. lence of the Great Western's machinery, which had carried her nearly 130,000 miles, without a disappoint ment, or missing her advertised hour of sailing, stated that he felt confident in predicting ,that at half past two on the 14 th, the G reat Western would arrive in King-road. At that very t ime, we have been informed by our Bristol correspon dent, her smoke was seen from the hills in the neig hbourhood of King road, and s h e anebored g seven o'clock, a3:ll:,r.thlaetelWy I:haligsci " hypocrisy" has been . defu led- by a Tvigoro r usau cr 6 rigipal;Yvriter as "the hoinage, which i vice pays to v . ir. file ; ' and if' the maxim .. be - I' d e r S a nopdp party o o hare 'toitheehomafe the which .."and slaverydrm Gladstone, ar e -a abolished the slave trade, must be regarded as a - liattering •; although perhaps reluctant and tardy compliment to the: ,; latter.

Edmund Burke, in one of' his rhaV• sodical spetches ena subject which has escaped our recc,l, %lion, ex It hn< d, —" Perish commerce, but let the con St. ;_tution l; v. !" and the former apologists for negro slavery and th ( a • slave trade, who now affect to be shocked at the bate idea .0 f eat • ing Brazilian sugar, exclaim—" Perish commet;!e ? La t let the 'West Indian monopoly survive !"—just as tee g rent landed gentry ejaculate—" Perish commerce, but lee . the corn monopoly survive !" With respect to the denounci rs of Brazilian slave-grown sugar, we might give them son e credit for consistency and a contrite sense of their t n - mer transgressions, if they would comprehend in th( it' list of proscribed articles of commerce, cotton, core , tobacco, hides, mahogany, dyewooas, • dye-stufk,, drugs gold, silver, and diamonds, which are the prod:lce of 7 Akmerica, Brazil, Cuba, Porto Rico, &c. They i tight then join in a grand chorus, —" Perish commerce, p( licit ' the revenue and the natioral debt, but let not slut cn 'Y' survive !" it is by no means certain, however, di t the British fundhohlers, merchants, and cotton-spinners , would adopt the maxim—fiutjustitift, ruat calam, atm it may be under that conviction that corn and. sugar mo nopolists pass by all the articles we have enumerated, sat, si/entio, and concentrate all their energies in the de . fence of their own : , pecial monopolies, - by which the: country at large is annually robbed in an amount grea:cr than that of the whole direct taxation of the country. The miserable and hypocritloal larefejloc„,of,4 - 16 porters of Lord 6andon's motion; that they are actuated by considerations of humanity in excluiling Bra li;in sugar, is too preposterous to deceive any Mall whose an dQrstanding ii no oKliscated by party cr faction.. "J7iie sole object oz the motion was to embarra.ss- and displAce the Administration; and, as cant is the order of ;lie day, the quondam advocates for the slave trade, actuated. by the most selfish and grovelling motives, have not scrupled to assume a lofty moral position as the frk: is of the negro, whilst they would exhibit Ministers in the false and odious position of connivers at slavery for the sake of revenue.

The new-born sy mpat ,:ie . of the old pro-slavery party for the wrongs of the Braiilll negro is one of the most ex traordinary moral phenomee s in the history of inenkind, 4 if we contrast the feelings th.'Y row Profess with those they formerly exhilthed on the `an-"e subject ; and as a striking illustration of the march o f morality and libe rality we invite the attention cal our "lore to th e sub , joined reminiscences : In the year 1806. the Liberal and Anti-s.. ".very party in Liverpool, by returning Mr. Roscoe W I,ltrizam• Mt, for the moment retrieved the character of the b,:roUrh, which had b ?en previously, as it hes been sut , seone.:lty, degraded by Tory a - seem:Laney. The supporters of i-7rtraers.t Gascoyne, as one means of rendering him the popnAr fa— vourite, adopted a very extraordinary expedient, which ruF even have escaped -the recollection of some of our veter.-at readers, but which nothing but death will ever erase frone our memories. Two little children, either of African ex traction or blackened for the special purpose, were carried round In their processions, mounted on a kind of platform, and chained together, to remind the public of the benefits derived from our traffic in the tiesh and blood of our sable fellow-men ! As a contrast to this revolting snectia2lc, Mr. Roscoe's Committee engaged a tab, well-built man of colour, who had been enfranchised, and who: . trium phantly exhibited a large colour on which was inscribed the motto—" We thank God for our fretxlortir and we distinctly recollect having frequent!) , seen sable standard-bearer, as the processions came in contact iii the street, wave his flag over the heads of the poor un conscious bablese.vho graced the procession of the slavery advocate, and, as he once styled himself, Cie puppet :xi the Liverpool Corporation !
