judiciously averse to involving their children prem..

I:'ireieTsesferiohed bra/out a day. In six days the royal
yacht might reach Newfoundland or Nova Scotia
from Galway. Six weeks would amply suffice for
the out-and-home voyage to and from the principal
cities of British North America. Stich a visit would
do more than more substantial benefits to rivet the
loyalty of the colonists to the Crown. Our Colonial
fellow-eabjects feel, and not without reason, that
they are scarcely made sufficient account of in the
mother-country. While the news of foreign
States is eagerly run after, comparatively few
ask what is passing in our Colonies. Illustrious
strangers—French, Dutch, and Russian—are eagerly
Wed, but the most distinguished of onr colonists are
allowed to come and go with scarcely any notice.
And yet how infinitely 'more important to us are
our Colonies than any alien nation! How much
larger a space ought their leading spirits to occupy
in our estimation! This neglect, we have had
reason to know, is deeply felt throughout our
Colonial Empire. It was a mistake, when send-
ing telegraphic messages to the PRESIDENT of '
the UNITED STATES, to overlook entirely the
()evermore and Legislators' of oar own American
Provinces. The under-current of resentment which
flows from this neglect might be materially checked
by a Royal visit to Canada. As far as regards
time, we have shown that there are no
insuperable ob,tacles to such a visit, And
for our sailor QUEEN, with all the luxurious
appliances of her royal yacht, it would, we confi-
dently believe, be a source of unmingled pleasure.
The glorious St. Lawrence would afford spectacles
yet unglued on by any crowned head. ELI?. kBETII
—like the poet's Gloriana, in whom she was
shadowed forth—was contented to receive from her
adventurous knights tidings of the strange new
world they had visited : VICTORIA may see it with
her own eyes.
