THE QUEEN'S CONSCIENCE. The Non-Intrusionists are showing the last symptoms of desperation. Defeated in the law courts, discountenanced by the public, slighted by Royalty, and with a dreary prospect of increased expenditure and diminished income before them, they have become utterly reckless, not merely of character, but of what many of the least able among them will find to be the very means of living. While they had hopes of main taining their ascendancy, or holding out an equal fight, they were careful not to expose the Establishment principle to risk or ridicule; but now that their discomfiture is certain, they have become the best allies of Voluntaryism. If anything could induce a belief in the sincerity of their professed determina tion to go out of the Church, it would be their ob vious efforts to make it not worth remaining in. Convinced that they themselves cannot much longer enjoy the advantage?, of State connexion, they seem resolved to render the endowments of their succes sors as precarious as possible. Better, they think, that there should he no Church, than that there should be a Church without them as its otlice-bearers. This feeling has been indicated more than once within the last few months; but never so strongly as since the Queen's non-attendance at the High Church of Edinburgh. The Scottish Guardian's remarks are already known to our readers ; but the - Witness, al though in more cautious phrase, has been equally im pertinent. Not content with expressing grievous disappointment, this pious and loyal journal has been showing its regard for the text, "Honour the king," by hinting at the fate of Charles I. and James VII., as warnings to our excellent and beloved Queen, and exposing the weak points of State religion, by insist ing that her Majesty should have nothing but a po litical conscience, or one that should adapt itself to the religious opinions of her subjects, wherever she may for the time be. Dissenters have been in the habit of urging that the connexion between Church and State places the Govern:nent in an anomalous position ; but they have hardly gone the length of the Witness in urging the individual responsibility of the Sovereign. If it be true that her Majesty must personally coun tenance every form of worship that is supported by the State—personally take part in the religious ceremonies of every sect that enjoys the advantages of . Government support—she • must discipline her conscience till it become much more elastic than even the Witness would like. In some parts of England, she will be Puseyite ; in others, Low Church ;—in some parts of Scotland, she will be Presbyterian Non-Intrusionist ; and in others, Presby terian Moderate ;—in Ireland, she will be by turns Episcopalian, Romanist, Presbyterian, and Seceder ; and, should it please her to pay a visit to the more distant portions of her empire, she will have greater changes to undergo—even to Mahommedanism and the creed of the Brahmins. Moreover, if she must join in one part of the religious service, why not in more ? The Presbyterian may ask her to sit down at the Lord's table ; the Romanist, to join in the mass ; the Mahommedan to perform the ablutions ; and her Hindoo subjects, in the unfortunate event of Prince Albert's death, might require her to mount the funeral pyre, and submit to be consumed with the corpse. It will not do to say that the violation of her Ma jesty's conscience, in the one case, would be more than in the other ; for, besides that strict conscien tiousness makes no allowance for small departures from the truth, the Witness knows that between Pu seyism and Romanism there is less difference than between Puseyism and Presbyterianism • and that the clergyman who conducted the services before her Ma jesty in Dalkeith Palace, would rather officiate in St. Marv's than in St. Giles. Nor is it alone in denying a conscience to thp Queen that the lVitness belies the principles that reli gious men profess to hold. Speaking of the attend ance of the Prime Minister in the parish church of Dalkeith, he says—" What does it matter to the Church of Scotland where Sir Robert Peel worships, or what he worships, or whether he worships at all ?”. Really, for the organ of a party who pray publicly and earnestly, every Sunday, that our rulers may rule in the fear of God, this is rather a strange doctrine. But it is quite consistent with their recent acts, which seem to say plainly—Let us succeed, or let everything go to wreck and ruin.—Aberdeen Herald. [ADVERTISEMENT.] c PARLIIMEN.

HOFLAND'S NEW NOVEL.—It is so long since • this highly popular writer appeared before the public, ' that her new hovel of " The Czarina" was looked for with unusual curiosity and interest ; and the result has more than justified these. It proves to be truly what its second title promised—" An Historical Romance of the Court of Russia," and .at the most remarkable and ro mantic period of that Court—namely, at the accession of net Cather he First, immediately after the death of Peter the Great. The numerous scenes in this r3mance, illustrative of the extraordinary condition of Russian aristocratic society at the period in question, are exe cuted with as much truth es spirit ; aad the parts which many of the old Russian nobility play in them must ex cite great interest in the reader, considering that every one of the names who figure in the work, maintain "ally the same position in European society now as I they di‘i a hundred years ago. The love story b:ended with the fate of the unhappy " Cz•irina" includes . every t.o. feature to interest the younger and more romantic por i a of those readers which the popular name a Mrs. Hotiandwill 11 secure to- this work. After the landing of her Majesty on Saturday, the General Steam ship Trident, :v.

" Sir,— ['he account of the late repulse our troops have met with near Port Natal, in a conflict with the Dutch emigrants, i' e render the following commu nication inte,'esting to some of the readers of your valuable paper. I laving myself resided on the eastern frontier of the Cape Colony from 1834 to 1841, (luring which period I had many opportunities of acquainting 'myself with the habits, character, &c., of the Dutel, farmers; and having acquired a pretty intimate know ledge of their laneetage, I venture to offer the follow ing remarks, which are mostly the result of my own observation. I shall at first describe, in as few words as possible, the origin of this emigration. • It began on a .4and scale in 1636, and the chie: eausei which led to it are enumerated by Mejoi Chartres, R.A., in some excellent letters published by him in the United Service Journal (see `Noticce of- the Cape and Southern Africa,' United SPrvice Journal, 1839) as follows :—First, ` Abolition of slavery,' and the compensation money being made payable in London, so that the Boer (farmer) had to submit to the tender mercies of certain Cape Town merchants, who brought the money to such a concen trated state, that he had no need.of his ox or waggon to carry it home. Secondly, The abuses in the . measurement of their farms, and titles to property. Ines"veral instances the Dutch farmers have paid for the measurement of their farms twice and thrice .° l- 0, being anxious to get the '.diagram and title, which in many cases lahl in the Sur• .veYor-General's-office at Cape. Town for. years. Seizure. of property during the Kafir War of 1834-5 by the Colonial GoverneneEte to the amount of 25,000/., without adequate remuneration :for the same.' Fourthly, . Insecurity of the frontier.' As these causes are so well explained in . the article above mentioned, I merely refer to them as being well, known matters of colonial history ; but I shall add a fifth cause, which is not so well known. .On .tht aerival of Captain (now Sir Andries) Stokenstrom, o:. the eastern frontier, as its Lieutenant-Governor in Sept. 18:36, Le received, among several addresses from the frontier towns, one from Leitenage, a town 95. miles west of Graham's Town. In this address the emigra tion was not alluded to, but Capt. S.'s reply contains the following p aragra ph s relative thereto : It is but can did at once to state that I am not aware of any law which prevents any of his Majesty's subjects from leaving his dominions and settling in another country, and suchr. law if it did exist, would be tyrannical and oppressive; nor eou1:1 we wish to prevent our brethren from bet teriner their condition.' —(Dated 14th September. 183 G.) l"pon Capt. S.'s arrival on the immediate `i•w,tr`ier, a correspondence commenced between him ar:d Field Commandant Retief, who was preparing to eeeeerate, e numerous body of farmers, from the - Wintr•rlK:rg district, should. their condition be not bet toyed arid rendered more secure. In a letter to Re -I'4 4lattd Shiloh, September 24, 1836, Capt. S. vrites Witli respect to those who in t can only say I cannot pre fro:A I ! him . ;- and if they could be hap in another country I would advise them to \'.ritten opinion ,thus given by the .. • .voc: tor st ti l.: eastern frontier to his sub-, :ei d ee leell lie repJated in addressing the Dutch operate:l as a fifth cause to the emigration : t ate reside was th it many who were previously wave,rin,t; , , from their doubts as to the legality of the step, fiecideA at once ; the sluice was withdrawn, and the full title of emigration swept across the northern frontier. 10 a,tempt was made by the authorities to stop this movemeett. I believe Mr. 11. Cloete, an ad vocate of Cape Town, an able lawyer, and a country man of the eniigraets, offered the Governor to visit personalty the emigrating farmers, and expostulate with them o n the step they were taking; but his services were declined. It was not until May, 1838, when Sir G. N - apier (then appointed Governor of the colony) addressed the emigrants in terms of con eiliation, on his visit to the eastern frontier, but witleout effect, and several times afterwards with as little success; this is not to he wondered at, when the movement had been allowed to progress so long without inter erence. _ " Before proceeding farther with the history of the el.aigration let in take a glance at the early history of Po.'t Natal. We first hear of Port Natal in 1589, wheia it is said to have been purchased from the na tives IN the Dutch East India Company for 20,000 guilders.- Mr. Saxe Bannister mentions this, and Rho that ; in 1696, a tract of land was again bought - b.y. the Company for like sum ; moreover, that the Dutch, after.abandOnintt• the Cape colony, settled De la-Uoa Baa?and Port Natal in 1820; but abandoned 1 -iteah both itt'lB3l'.'' The - Portuguese soon ,after s,q t!Qd. the fit '1821; the Sdllibury trader, char, ter.?(l. her Lieut. Fanwell and 3fr. Thomson, visited' Vart.:Nztat on a corilinerciiil speoulation. On the Ist oalav, -18 ,4 .4, Licht. F. reported his proceedings to the Cape Colonial-Government, and requeted permission to fotin.a - trading establishment there; it was granted, 1% . itit this proviso, ' that- Government would not sanction the acquisition of any territorial possession, without a ilia communication to the Governor of the circum stances under which it might be offered, and be in tended to be received.' In September, 1824, Liente- F. reports to the Governor that he had received a .41,1 e and grant of land from Chaka, King of the Zooloos, nearly depopulated, and having 35 miles of eoast-iine, and extending 100 inland. Mr. Saxe Ban nister, ia his valuable work already referred to, urges the necessity of the Government taking posse ssion of it. Sir G. L. Cole, then GOvernor of the Cape, and the Secretary of State, seem to have held a different opinion, for the latter states in answer to S. B.'s re eoinmendation, that his Majesty's Government could not perceive that snch advantages would accrue to the public, by adopting WI suggestions, as would cou n terhe - lailee- the expetve, &c., which must inevitably attend the formation of a new settlement.' In 1835 the same yeeie.. , t was urged by the merchants of Cape Town, ant the Colonial Government returned the same an swer. Prom the foregoing facts it is evident that 1 Natal n e v e r belonged to the English Govern meat, and that they, moreover, disclaimed all idea of f wreing a settlement there. 'lt ha - -; been already qtat-ft tbat the ground granted by Chalia. to Lieute- 1 innit Fanwell was nearly depopulated. The actual ;,,,ee“tiaaa was between :100 and 400 souls, over an of country of upwards of 3,000 square mile:. Coaka by it series of bloody wars laid waste this atal the country south-westward of Natal for two hundred miles. It has been supposed that one mil lion of human beings were destroyed by him, so that he has been well designated the cAttila' of Southern A erica. Dingaan, his brother, murdered him, about t•welve years ago, and by his cruelties has well ea:reed the title of 'Nero of that country. When division o the efnigrants under Retief arrived h i the Zooloo country, they treated With Dingaan, Ru a we r e . by him granted the Natal territory. Soon afterwards, however, Retief and a hundred of his party were treacherously butchered by Din gaan, who consummated this act by surprising the Dutch encampment, and murdering the remainder, witia the tromen and children. This was the be gianiag of hostilities between the emigrants and the Zi'olon;. The primary aggression ,was Din ran's. l am induced to dwell upon this,. US many the o t aiiiion that the emigrants were in all cases the aggresso r; a n d b e h a ved in a brutal manner towards th o o;o r i g i nes . The path of th e i r emi gration was, incieed, marked w ith blond, but not by anre.aaio n , T he ' v tarried too many cattle with them to act, ofiensively't and just sufficient to excit e the cupidity they wished, written - 41v Major of the aborigines. The paper 11 t'ri'es, before referred to, will prove; in every Ilari " attacked.

But if he himself finds sufficient men who are willing to live 'leder 111,s laws. he Way lien' state within the eouutre lie hex discovered, and po,suss there both the domain and the empire.' " Now, this is exactly our yesitioe with regard v these Dutch emigrants; therefore, upon the plea of justice, our. occupation of Port Natal cannot be de fended. The policy of such a step I will not contro vert. Port Natal, at least, must be taken possession of. Any attempt, however, to coerce or subjugate the Dutch emigrants to British law by mere force, will ae attended, with immense expense and bloodshed. With equal, or even superior numbers, we • have no chance against them. Arab-like, they will evade pur suit, while armed with their long guns, and being excellent shots, they will contrive (being mounted) to keep within their own range, and far beyond that of our muskets. Artillery is of little , avail igainst them, for they scatter too much. Equally useless would be any attempt to prevent their • obtaining ammunition. It is a well-known fact, that lotted as the eastern frontier of the Cape Colony is with military posts, along the extent of 100 miles, we have been unable to prevent ammunition and gun., ;1.-oin being smuggled to the Kafirs. low, then, can we ..xpect to arrest the same system along the northern frontier, where there does not exist a military post, and which is in extent 600 miles, inhabited also by fellow-countrymen of the emigrants ? It has been suggested, even by the ' Aborigines Protection Com mittee,' I believe, to incite the native tribes to fall on the emigrants. This would not be exactly fulfilling their duty, nor the intention of Sir G. Napier, in sending the first expedi dition. What a spectacle must the late conflict I (lave presented to the surrounding black tribes ! White warring against white, after our missionaries, more particularly in that quarter, have been preaching against all bloodshed. Were Pretorious and a few others in our power, something might be effected ; hut I repeat, that any war with the emigrants (should they remain united) will be attended with defeat on our part. The wilds of Africa are before them, and they will only retire into the interior. It is not improbable that the next accounts will be of a more serious nature. Captain Smith's instructions, of course, we lo not know, but he appears to have been rash in attempting an attack, even on the provocation he received. It appears extraordinary that he should have gone into action with his artillery unloaded, and, on abandoning the same, that he should not have spiked the guns. The authorities at Cape Town are, no doubt, to blame on many points, which, indeed, are so apparent, that it is unnecessary to enumerate them. With a hope, however, that affairs may be amicably and honourably adjusted, I remain, Sir, " A VOICE FROM NATAL. " Chatham Barracks, Sept. 10, 1842."

I hope, as Sir Robert Peel said, that he is not a class man, and that he does not look to th e right or to the left, but to the nation at large ; and I hope in what he has done we shall not feel ourselves injured or deceived. I hope, we shall see the cloud passing by—l can say no more than this, that I hope we shall see better times, for I consider the present times very gloomy and very miserable for the agricul tural interest; but within the last week things have got a little better, and I consider the news which England has received on the subject of peace with America., one of the greatest things for this nation; for if we had been obliged to go to war with that country where should we have been then? I hope Sir Robert Peel has done what he thought right for the good of the nation, and that what he has done will be found to have that effect. hope Providence—for as I said to Sir Robert Peel, we have two P's, Providence and —I hope Providence will give prosperity to the landed Peel interest, and that I shall have the happiness of meeting vou next year under better circumstances. There is testimony, then, to the fact that the landed interest is beginning to grumble. The injury it has done to others is now returning into its own bosom. Its calamities, however, are only beg,irining. The hopes entertained by Mr. CONYERS, that things are getting a little better, are dashed to the ground by the fall in Monday's markets. The peace with ATnerin. on wilicit relies, and which he justly praisos, e ceq • ine„ , tirt ; but utifortunately 'for E:.g:add it is cumpanied by a tariff; which, he inay ,ear.: rt. C 5 and fruni ; on- ad ices ft•oui the lbalt ,rebeldin the City to be :s' i111:,~~ ~.. coutinuod check consumption, but-we are told that it in diices foreigners to withhold orders or carry Ahem .else Where. - The price of agricultural pro duce iS,likeb', therefore, to sink still lower and cause_ still more " gloomy and more miserable fithei fur the agricultural interest" than it now experiences. • His a somewhat curious coincidence that the average rate of duty at which ‘2,457,9; - ,' Ars. of wheat have been imported under the new scale was Si. 4d., or within id. of the fixed duty pro. posed by the Whigs. Being brought in on the eve-of our own harvest, which has turned out almost infinitely better than the bad seed-time experienced last year induced persons to ex pect, that quantity has brought agriculture into its present " very gloomy and very miserable" condition. Had the Whigs succeeded in carry ing their fixed duty, an equal, and probably a greater, quantity of corn would have been im ported. ft might not have come all at once, like the importation under the slidingscale ; some of it would have been brought in before the period when the duty under the present scale sunk to Bs., and some of it the holders at that period would have kept in bond, certain that they ran no risk ofnot being able to enter it hereafter at the same rate ofduty. The fixed duty, too, might have given a greater impulse to our trade than the sliding scale; but this'would have been about balanced in its effect on prices by the greater quantity of corn imported. As the agriculturists are suffering now and complaining, they would have suffered under the Bs. fixed duty ; and the Whigs, had they been successful, would have had to bear the odium of ruining the agriculturists. Their opponents would have made no allowance for the harvest; all the blame of the reduced prices would have been ascribed to their measure, and they would have become ten times inure unpopular than at present. They may now be thankful that they did not succeed, as we are, for the blame of injuring the agriculturists can not now be shifted from the Corn-laws. That the Whigs did not succeed has rescued them from the unpopularity of ruining the poor agri culturists, which will now fall on the devoted heads of their rivals. We cannot part company from Squire CON. YERS, till we have directed the reader's attention to his almost blasphemous alliteration : "(S I said to Sir R. PEEL, we have two P's.--Provi. dente and PEEL." In the mind of the Squire, therefore, and probably in the minds of kin dred squires, PEEL and Providence were, some months back, placed on the same level. They were expected to be equally efficacious in saving and aggrandising the agricultural state, and they were equally honoured by the squires. The flattery of the Frenchman, who placed " on the statue o f BONAPARTE the insc r ip t i on Voila yzon Di eu ," was a bold piece of impiety; but it is nearly e qualled, in all but its b o ld nes , by the sneaking impiety of Squire C nNYERS . An old and respectable officer, long since dead, we believe, who used to 'Say that nobody looked after the Eurydice but. GOD ALMIGHTY and GEORGE LUMSDAIN, was considered a profane man in times much less chary of speech than at present ; a n d w h a t then will be thought Ix' a squir e —on : 2 o f our pattern men—who flatter Sir R. PEEL by telling him th at t h e nation has two P's—rovidence and P EEL `cMan-worship," said Al;. VINCENT, iu a spe ec h delivered a few days ago, addressing th e work ing classes, " has been your bane ;" and now that man-worship has been scouted by the work ing classes, it . is adopted by time squires. The opinions concerning the American tariff, which we quoted yesterday front the Leeds Mercury, are shared, we see,. by the Glasyow urges. That journal says : The new duties are, in point of filet, prohibitory against numerous and important articles of 13, itish trade, and they have given rise to the most seri ous apprehensions, in regard to the future, both in Glas gow and Manchester. We know of one house in this city that ship from 40,0001. to 50,000/. value every' spring and fall, who declare that they will be coin ' pelled to abandon the trade, and only refrain from. doing so in the meantime because the provisions of the tariff are so monstrous that the American Govern omtehnetr hca(nmssecaih•caes cancelled o r d ers to the ext e nt ofly persist in them permanently. An -15,000 pieces printed cottons and de-laines : and we have heard, also, of large orders fin gingthami, and other articles of manufacture, being in like manner countermanded. These are specimens of the "benefits" conferred by the new tariff upon Glasgow ; and we might proceed to enumerate many others. We pre fer however, to make way for the following letter, which we have received from Mr. John Pattison, of this city, a gentleman who is extensively engaged in the trade with the United States, and whose views, as being those of a practical merchant, are deserving of attention. __lNir. PATTISON ' S letter we t a k e t wo ex tractsFr ------ - To give you some idea how the new duties will affect the manufacturing 'interests of Glasgow and Paisley, I will shortly state, that printed muslins and are virtually prohibited, such iste i d n ' ch wide, now paying six cents all moderate printed cottons, of which the great bulk e o o f tt t o h n e s, t or three pence the yard duty ; Delaines, or cotton and woollen mixed goods, pay same as cottons. Ginghams, nine cents, or five pence the square yard; Madras and Verona handkerchiefs, say 1 9 0 per cent. twenty-fourr ae cos to 150 per cent. duty ; muslins, 74- cents, or 31d. square yard; silk goods, or of which silk is a compo nent part, two dollars and a ha f per lb. of 16 oz. ; so that a Paisley silk and cotton shawl, which weighs about a pound, and costs 6s. to is., will pay a duty of ten shillings ! Iron will now pay from .55 to 65 per cent. To add to the severity of the law, all the duties are to be paid cash down on entry. To sell, under the old and moderate duties, if you got any pry t, you were compelled to give a credit of eight months ! I cannot help thinking that this prohibitory measure has been called forth by a spirit of RETALIATION springing out of Sir R. Peel's tariff. * * * *, From the talent display e d by the President in his Message on the Veto--the moderation and good sense evinced by Mr. Webster—and the present feel ing of the American people generally—there can be no doubt that, had Sir Robert Peel proposed a mode ratefiredduty on bread stuffs, he would have obtained a commercial treaty on the most fair and liberal terms —an arrangement which would have proved highly beneficial to the great landed interests of America — east, west, and south —as well as of vast importance to their mercantile marine- ; --and it would have saved Our 'manufacturers Cram the - f'..lit that . tliire4f,en 'S them.

Our friends in ,Canada, however, h ave goo d y ,4 . j ili se; to rejoice—th e y will have a rich harvest to'l3.4','.thei'• in . supplying the smugglers of the United States. Whether the . Tories meant to. destroy our trade with America or vot, and, from what their journals have said th e wo rld will give them credit for meaning it, they are accomplishing that object. Till Sir ROBER T PE EL took •it into his head to modify the tariff and the Corn-law, and modi fied them as if he had intended to keep out the produce of the 'United States—fur none of his changes are beneficial to them--.-the American Government and p eo ple might nourish some hopes that Engli s h best interests of their own countrY,. which is also the interest of Americo. Sir ROBERT PEEL'S tariff and Cora-law have put an end to all those hopes, and are the true parents of the American tariff. Oar trade was suffering- before from our own legislation, and now it is doomed to suffer still more, so that the Tories will pro bably have the satisfaction of depopulating half our manufacturi ng t o wns. To• justify their malevolent designs against manufactures, they put forth some of the strangest reasons imaginable. A gr. PALMER, who re joices in representingthe.Essex 'agriculturists in Parliament, said; at the EPPinc: meeting on Fri day, that it is the first duty•and the first labour imposed on man by the ALMIGHTY, that he should cultivate the g round a duty and a labour of which man, in some stages '3( his' existence, has no conception. Does-Mr. PALMER mean tlia ie fourfold m ? L+1.... ~, :t;] Y to Oa CIUC il;_ sltl to labour for tell us tha l'Ultlet iculture, bc?catise is subsisten Tory journalist found out yesterday tha t agriculture was preferable to manufactures, be cause it was the parent of steady and regular hatlts. Such an assertion must be made to serve a purpose, for anything more contrary to fact cannot well be conceived. The agricul turist has in winter little or nothing to do, and be goes hunting or poaching, or would go if he were allowed, because he has no occupation. In other seasons he labours, as in hay time and harvest, sixteen hours a day. His labours de- . peed, too, on the weather as well as the seasons, and he sometimes begins his day by sowing, and then the rain drives him into the barn to thrash. If the barn-floor be occupied, he may make hurdles ; and if there be no hurdles wanted, he may go to sleep, or go to the alehouse. His oc cupations are neither continuous nor certain, while the bulk of the artisans, excluding brick layers, stonemasons, &c., working under shelter, go day after day to their labour by the cluck, and leave off work as thc clock strikes. The machines o►► which artisa►►s depend, are models of regularity ; the weather, which -fo►ms the habits of the agriculturists, is proverbially uncertain. If the assertion that agriculture is favourable to steady and regular habits, as con trasted with ►manufactures, be nut made with► a view to deceive, it is the offspring of unobserving ignorance. It is, however; o►► such grounds as that it is ►man's first duty to cultivate the ground, and that cultivating the ground gives steady habits, that our manufacturers are to be. malevo lently doomed to decay, by those who claim respect and obedience frog►► manufacturers as their protectors and guardians. We publish in another place a brief history, written. by an English officer, of the circuoi stances whic!i led the Boers of Natal to leave the colony of the Cape of Good Hope. It agrees with much which we had previously heard, and acid is confirmed by the proclamation published by the Boers themselves. From both documents it appears that they left the colony after giving notice of their intention, assigning their reasons for their conduct, and receiving the sanction of the Lieutenant-Governor of the colony. He said, according to the Boers, that " it was an in dubitable right that a man, not satisfied with the administration of a Government, had liberty to abandon it." But now, it is assumed in the contest with them, that no man can throw off his :Alegiaoce to a Government, and that once a slave, he must for ever remain a slave. We think it be. cones all men to protest against such a doctrine. Weknow that it is thshionable—that it is insisted on in the case of our seamen, but that does not make it just. A Government is established for the benefit of all the people, and if some of them find that it is not for their benefit, they have, so the Lieutenant-Governor said, an in dubitable right to shake off its authority. The contrary principle asserts that man is made for government, not government for man. It is a relic of the imperial despotism of old Rome, which ought not to be tolerated amongst us; and if, on this ground, Lord STANLEY has decided on reducing the Boers to subjection, England has allowed her Minister to engage her in a career of injustice. The war seems, we deeply regret to say, likely to be carried on in a manner which the whole civilized world will, condemn. The arm • ing the Indians during the American war has always been held to be a disgrace to our country. The Dutch Boers, say certain busy agents, are instigating the Kafir tribes against us, either to their own or our misfortune." Colonel CLOILTE says, in his dispatch, that the Katirs would plunder the Boers as soon as his troops with-. draw. In remonstrating against employing them to make war on the Boers, he implies that em ploying them had heel' e:mtemplated. To wage a War against the emigrants, in order to compe; tilem to return under our dominiou, and to carry uu that war by the aid and assistance of savages, will be to inflict on Great. Britain an indelible disgrace. • i t may be confidently anticipated, now that the boundary line is settled, and the Canadians have obuiined a new Constitution, that this enuntry will be at length relieved of the enor mous expense incurred by keeping up a large standing army in our North American provinces. Tile troops of the line in that quarter, indepen dent of the native militia in pay,probably ex ceed 15,000 men, being about one-fifth of the whole effective three of. the country. Taking the pay of the militia into account, the number of desertions from the regular army, and the large sums of • money laid out on public works, it cannot be denied that the mother country has a very expensive, as well as a troublesome offspring. From keeping up so many troops in Canada, Great Britain has been forced to increase her army, and has at the same time been materially crippled in her opera tions both i» India and China. Could one-half of the Canadian three have been spared two years ago, the contest with the Chinese would have ex hibited a very different aspect, as in all proba bility we should have dictated terms to the " Bright Eye" in Pekin, anti thereby brought this tedious war to a satisfactory termination. These considerations, therefore, give rise to the questions, whether, under all circumstances, the possession of the Canadas is worth the money, and whether, at some not very distant period, it may not be advisable to leave the people to erect themselves into an independent State. When the North American provinces became sufficiently strong to assert their independence, we tried in vain to coerce them into obedience, lost armies and much treasure in the deadly con test, and were at last compelled to yield. Since that humiliating event, changes have taken place which few anticipated. England increased in power, the United States increased in a tenfold proportion, and the trade and commerce between the countries now exceeds those between any two States in the world. Unfortunately, the bad feeling created by the war of independence long existed, and has not died away, notwithstanding the-cast ,:onimercial intercourse between the two countries. This, therefbre, ought to be a lesson for the future rulers of the country, and should induce them, •when Canada is sufficiently 'Strong to defend her elf, and claims independence ; to g.ran t i e•y:it.hout a struggle. By so doing,. Great 131 . itain ;Would ..set a noble example, perhaps the only one yet exhibited in the world, f ths t er h, g a eqlony, protecting it against all enemies 'during - its weakness, and at a fitting season partingwith it on terms of friendship and , !steciii. At present, however, such an event is out of the question, as Canada is quite unable to cope with her powerful neighbour, and we are bound to protect her ; :int when the separation does take place, England will have no cause to complain. The new Greek tariff, of which an Outline ap peared some two months ago in The Sun, is giving all the trouble and vexation which we rxedicted it would, to British Merchants trading with that kingdom. Nearly all the Consular authorities have protested against the tariff regu lations as vexatious, absurd, and utterly imprac ticable. Nevertheless the Royal dolt, King Onto, has signified, that having received his sanction, they are unalterable. A Morning Con temporary publishes a letter from Patras, dated the 27th of August, in which we find the fellow ing illustration of the w or ki ng o f th e new tariff: A British schooner arrived here yesterday, having been loaded at Liverpool with a general cargo for Corfu and this port. At Corfu she landed the portion of her 'cargo destined for that place, arid came on here with the remainder. The master produced his bills of lading and manifest, from Liverpool, to the Patras Custom-house authorities, but they insisted on having a manifest from Corfu, which;of course, had not been furnished, nor had the master asked for it, the goods for Patras having been loaded at Liver.. 1 001.

We have repeatedly represented to our Go vernment the absolute necessity of compelling King OTHO to observe the stipulations under which the Great Powers inflicted upon Greece the calamity of such a Sovereign. His adminis tration of the affairs of that country is absolutely intolerable. For a whole year has the British Ambassador at Athens been vainly endeavour ing to obtain redress for the over-exaction of du ties from British merchants. As OTHO'S ex penses exceed his income, he has recentl:.• taken to banking speculations, in which he is assisted by M. PISCATORY and a SWAMI of French financiers of rather doubtful credit. Prudent men will have as little to do with Onto's paper money as possible; but many are compelled to receive it, and the chances are that the new Bank will form a new element in the mass of miseries that afflict Greece. Th►e new Treaty between England and the United States for the Suppression of the Slave Trade, is discussed in all the Paris journals of Sunday, with the exception of the Debuts—the organ of the Court. They dislike it exceedingly, even while affecting to discover in it a lowering of the pretensions of England. The Presse, the Constitutionnel, the Courrier Francais, and the National, suggest a variety of circumstances in which international exigencies may yet occur, and enter chiefly upon a consideration of the peculiar position which France is placed in by the realization of the treaty as at present con stituted. The journals of Guadaloupe have just brought us the address voted by the Central Council of that island on the 9th of July, in reply to the speech on opening the Session. This document states all the sufferings of the colony. The 'Ville de Marseilles of the line, commanded by Captain Nonay, cast anchor in the road of Toulon on the 13th, in the evening. This vessel came froin the Hyeres islands, and is to convey to Rio de Janeiro M. Langodorf, the Minister Plenipotentiary of Prance. M. Olozaga, has arrived at Paris ; he is going to Belgium and Holland, as we have stated. St. Martinez de la Rosa has quitted Bayonne, and is expected at Paris.—Constitutionnel. A Ministerial journal, announcing the arrival of M. Olozaga at Paris, says that the object of his jour ney to Belgium is to negotiate with the Government certain modifications in the tariff. As for Holland, it is known that it was proposed to make an exchange of timber fit for ship-building, to be taken on the coast of Cantabria, for men-of-war. A similar negotiation with France was talked of, but nothing more has been said about it. We were not wrong in announcing that the first packet-boat would bring the news of the voting of the new tariff. President Tyler, satisfied with having triumphed, by excluding the appropriation clause, has given his assent to the Bill which contains the clauses so prejudicial to our commerce, which we announced at the time of the adoption of the Bill by the llouses of the Congress. When we receive the text of the Bill we shall publish it. We shall also have to exa mine how far our Cabinet can remain inactive, con sidering the attitude taken by the United States, and if there is nothing to be done for the interest of our commerce.—Commerce.

SIR WALTER SCOTT AND A SCOTCH BLACKSMITH. —lt happened, at a small country town, that Scott sud denly required medical advice for one of his servants, and, on inquiring if there was any doctor at the place, he was told there were two, one long established and the other a new corner. The latter gentleman, b e i ng luckily found at home, soon made his appearance— a grave, sagacious looking personage, attired in black, with a shovel hat, in whom, to his utter astonishment, Sir Walter recognised a Scotch blacksmith, who had formerly practised, with tolerable success, as a veterinary operator in the neighbourhood of Ashestiel. ."
