LONDON, MONDAY, FEBRUARY 24, 1845.

We have been so often under great obligations to
Mr. HUME for his useful and persevering labours in
bringing within the knowledge, and within the reach
of the public at large, the most important documents
and returns that can illustrate the domestic, financial,
and foreign administration of the affairs of this em-
pire, that we are less surprised than gratified by the
recent promulgation a paper (No. 49, of the pre-
sent session—House of Commons), entitled " Colo-
nies, Population, Trade, &c." which is docketed with
sen of
the Honourable Member's name. It is impossible to
peruse this return, without very strong convictions of
the immense responsibilities that attach to the ex-
tended influence, authority, commerce, and wealth
that are derived to the mother country through its
colonial dominions. The return, to which we now
allude, sets forth in terms of the order of the House,
" the date at which each colony or foreign possession
of the British Crown was captured, ceded, or settled,
the number of population, and whether having legis-
_

lative assemblies, or governed by orders of the Quetta
in Council; stating, also, value of exports and
imports, number and tonnage of vessels entered in-
wards and cleared outwards in each colony, in the
year 1842." If " DAVID " HUME could have ar-
rived, by any process of anticipation, at the
interesting results which, about a century
after his time, were to be promulgated to

the world in this paper, through the instrumentality
of his namesake, the great historian's generous, though
unsuccessful apology for the STUART Sovereigns
would have derived no inconsiderable aid and force
from a recapitulation of some of these dates of colo-
nial settlements. This remark derives additional

importance, perhaps, from the fact that a sufficient de-
gree of credit has never been conceded to the successor
Of ELIZABETH for the sagacity and forecast with
which he examined, discussed, and even projected
great schemes of trans-atlantic colonization.. His
ideas on this national question were in some reipects,
it would be easy to show, far beyond the lights which
most of his contemporaries, whether princes or
subjects, had yet acquired. On matters of this
kind, moreover, JAMES was,
,inspired with a
constancy of purpose, and a courage in en-
countering discouragements and -difficulties that
strongly contrasted with the general irresolution,
timidity, and feebleness of his cbaracter. Almost the
last hours of his life—or certainly. the last days of his
existence—were devoted, in the privacy of his closet at
'Theobalds, to the implement of his grand design
for the settlement of Nova Scotia, which had re-
mained from 1479 until the royal grant to the
ALEXANDERS, in 1622, an unproductive, because un-
improved, discovery. Nevis, Montserrat, Antigua,
and the Bahamas, were all settled during the reign of
'CHARLES I. Jamaica capitulated to the heroic repre-
sentative of CROMWELL, in 1655. The settlement of
Tortola -and that of the Anguillas, in the West
Indies, in 1666, and the cession of St. Helena by the
Dutch, in 1673, are among the few redeeming illus-
trations of the reign of CHARLES 11.
It appears that the total population of our colonies
in North 'America—namely, the two Canadas, New
Brunswick, Nova Scotia, Cape Breton, Prince Ed-
ward's Island, and Newfoundland, amounts to
1,621,000 souls : the imports from these colonies into

the United Kingdom, to 1,391,2551. annually : our
exports thither, from the United Kingdom, to
4,445,5201. Yearly tonnage entered inwards (United
Kingdom), 540,448; ships, 1,552. ,Tonnage out-
wards, 445,472 ; ships, 1,329. Of our 19 West
India Colonies (Antigua, Barbadoes, Dominica,
Grenada, Jamaica, Montserrat, St. Kites, Nevis, St.
Lucia, St. Vincent, Tobago, Tortola, the Anguillan,
Trinidad, Bahamas, Bermudas, British Guiana, and
Honduras), the population is 901,082 ; our imports
thence into the United Kingdom 6,015,765/. ; our
exports thither 5,376,521/. Number of ships entered
inwards, United Kingdom, 714, tonnage 191,688 ;
cleared outwards 806 ships, tonnage 261,344. Of
these other colonies, &c.—(namely, Gibraltar, Malta,
Gozo, Cape of Good Hope, Sierra Leone, or the
Gold Coast, Gambia, Ceylon, Mauritius, New South
Wales, Van Dieman's Land, Western Australia,
South Australia, New Zealand, Falkland Islands,
St. Helena, and Hong-Kong)—the population is
2,152,101 ; the annual imports thence into this king-
dom, 3,087,999/. ; our exports thither, 7,496,6281.; ton-
nage inwards, United Kingdom, 128,500, ships 522 ;
outwards, tonnage 911,000, ships 3,077. What noble
bases are here, for the commercial opulence, the com-
mercial marine, the naval power, and the permanent
grandeur of a maritime empire like our own, con -
nected as it thus is with the extremest limits of our
globe—(putting utterly out of view:our 100,000,000
of Continental-Asiatic subjects or tributaries, and the
vast commercial and political relations we have with
them)—with an aggregate colonial population of
4,674,000; an aggregate of imports of 10,495,000/. ;
of exports of 17,318,000/. ; and the employ of a total
tonnage inwards of 860,729, and 2,788 ships ; out-
wards, 911,032 tonnage, and 3,077 ships ! This is,
indeed, empire on a grand scale, and, we trust, main-
tained with a degree of proportionate benefit to the
destinies of mankind.

We are far from imputing to the heads of our
English Universities the fact of their labouring
under that species of malady which the accomplished
Roman apprehended of the eloquent Apostle—" that
too much learning bath made them mad." Still, we
are not without our misgivings that amidst the con-
flicting agitations of the Church and the distractions
of its affairs, their self-possession and ordinary sanity
are becoming more than questionable. There is a
formidable minority of upwards of 300 wayward
children of our nursing mother of Oxford committed,
through a series now of some eight or nine years, by
a long succession of overt acts of reproach and un-
faithfulness to the canons and practice of the
Established Protestant Church, to a scandalizing re-
pudiation of their venerable parent and guardian.
That repudiation they have sealed within this fort-
night by a solemn vote which must be considered in
the nature of a protest against all proceedings, penal
or admonitory only, against all impugners of the
"Articles" which the offenders had signed, whose
contumacy in since rejecting and abrogating them,
the University has been appealed to to condemn.
The champions of Puseyism, it seems, are fully aware
of all the mischief's, the the heart-burnings,
the uncharitableness, the scandal, disunion, and decay
they are infusing into the system of that Church for
which they will still profess a vague and, therefore,
unintelligible attachment. Yet is it clear from their
own shoving, that they set more store by the dress
and ceremonial with which the altar shall be ap-
proached, and the decorations wherewith it shall be
spread, than by the upholding of that pure, spiri-
tualised, and simple worship which is at once so con-
formable to our notions of the inexpressible majesty
of the SUPREME BEING, whose true temple, after all,
a not built by human hands, and so obviously con-
sistent with the ethical theology and the divine
mcrality taught to man by His beneficent impersona-
tion. They would look on with delight at the
downfal of that Church, which, organized as it were
by a sustaining inspiration from above, and its own
intuitive energies, under all the discouragement and
difficulties of that night of superstition through which
its star was yet to shine ; and the bigoted persecutions
it was to encounter at the hands of enemies, able,
multitudinous, and powerful, armed with the pre-
judices of ages, as well as the accumulated authority
derived from those prejudices—has triumphed and
prospered among us in a degree more eminent than it
has anywhere else attained. That Church which has
so often and so heroically fought the battle of con-
stitutional liberty against civil and ecclesiastical
despotism and violence, they would gladly see in the
base attitude of a repentant suppliant, imploring, with
tears of anguish and humiliation, the Church of Rome
to receive her back again into its fold 1 Such language
as this a recreant, who calls himself a minister of
the Church of England—and who, holding such
opinions and expressing such wishes, has not been
ashamed to continue in the ministry and connexion
of the Church which has nourished his treason in her
bosom—such language he has ventured to utter, to
repeat, and to record, in this very year 1845.
In the columns of a Contemporary we observe a

significant indication of the spread which this " dis-
turbing force" of Puseyism is making in the sister
University of Cambridge. We have already shown
how at Oxford and elsewhere it confounds words

with things, forms with principles; how it abuses
doctrine to exalt ceremonial, and is prompt to sacri-
fice the essentials of " true religion undefiled," to the
vanities and innovations incorporated into the scheme
of Christian worship by the superstition or worldly
notions of policy that have prevailed in high places
during the ascendancy of the worst corruptions of the
Church of Rome. We can heartily sympathise,
however, with the laudable. and ever generous
reverence that enlightened Protestants entertain for
that spirit of magnificence in their devotions, and for
the lofty genius, and bold yet beautiful conception
attested in the sacred edifices they have left behind
them, which record to the latest posterity the sin-
cerity and solemnity of the faith professed by our
Roman Catholic forefathers. The " CAMBRIDGE CAM-
DEN SOCIETY," instituted for the purpose of contri•
buting to the preservation and restoration of these
noble works, has been pursuing a career of singular

usefulness with most meritorious liberality. Its
efforts have bad a direct tendency to induce the ex-
tension of the habits of Church going, and whilst at-
taining that permanent object to improve and refine
the public taste of the present day, and to perpetuate
the remembrance of the founders of such precious
fabrics. Is it.not insufferable that because the great
body of the members ' composing this Society
are naturally offended with their Puseyite Committee
for incorporating into the Society's republications and
papers, on every possible occasion, the stamps and
badges of the Roman mummery which the Puseyite

doctors and. deacons so profoundly affect, the public

are about to lose the benefit of its existence ? Like
the Established Protestant Church of England, which
your WARDS, and your NEWMANS, and your PAL-
-1 ERS " cannot away with," the Cambridge Camden
Society is to be overthrown by the insidious under-
working of these Pusey moles. We have read the
following passages with a regret in which we are con-
, fident our readers will fully participate t-
-4
" The tltsrsolittion of this Society, which, according to
the announcement of the President on Thursday evening
last, is to-take place in May next, will not, it is ru-
moured in the University, pass off very quietly on that
day, if indeed it will be allowed to fall without a pre-
vious struggle. Some of the resident members are of
opinion,.and it is thought that a great number also of the
non-resident ones. are :of a similar one, namely, that a
plan for a. church at Hong-Kong, or anywhere else, can
be furnished without a Romish calendar being printed
simultafietilisly at the Pitt press for the Secretary of the
Swiety, andit.kednvelope stamped with. the. .effigy of a
Remish saint. The questions are asked—cannot
the study. of ecejcsiastical architecture be pursued un
less in connexion with the encouragement of th 6 'absur-'
dities and errors of superstition ? and the Committee
think the avowed object of the Society not worth car-
rying out, unless it can be made the means of promoting
objects not avowed ? As the Society has recently ex-
cited a deal of public interest, it were as well, in justice '
to all parties, that its avowed objects should be publicly
known.

" The Cambridge Camden Society was instituted in
May, 1839, for the promotion of the study of ecclesias-
tical architecture and antiquities, and the restoration of
mutilated architectural remains. Such being its avowed
object, it afforded opportunities for the mutual
study of ecclesiological subjects to its resident
members, and circulated amongst its non-resident ones
the papers read at the meetings of the Society.
It disseminated, moreover, a variety of publica-
tions, some of which were intended for the use of mem-
bers, while others were addressed more generally to
influential classes immediately connected with the
preservation, restoration, and building of churches. It
made occasional grants, as in the case of the Round
Church, Cambridge, in aid of particular restorations,
and corresponded with similar societies founded for si-
milar objects in other places. Amongst these is cul-
tivated a good understanding with • the Oxford Society
for promoting the study of Gothic architecture, with

the Exeter Diocesan, Lichfield, Durham, Yorkshire,
Down, Connor, and Dromore, and Bristol Architectural
Societies, the members of which enjoyed the privilege of
purchasing the publications of the Cambridge Camdan
Society on the same terms as its own members."

Will the Cambridge Camden Society permit us to
exhort them to a stout fight, and to the determined
maintenance of their most useful course and very in-
valuable labours ? They may be assured that the
benefits of that course, and the evidence of their la-
bours, will survive long after the overheated vision-
aries who have managed thus to vex the Church are
forgotten for their folly, or, if remembered, remem-
bered only in pity for the caprices of human fatuity.

We have intelligence from Lisbon to the 18th inst.
On the night of the 17th the QUEEN was confined,
and gave birth to a Princess. The medical bulletin
of the 18th announces that her MAJESTY and the
Infanta are going on well. Three days of rejoicing
with illuminations are decreed to celebrate the event.
The intelligence of a political character is entirely
destitute of interest.

Accounts from Switzerland to the 18th instant an-
nounce that the occurrences at Lausanne have induced
the different cantons of Switzerland to take measures
for insuring their internal tranquillity. The Grand
Council of the Valais has called out the landsturm,
and voted a credit of 200,000 f The sentiments of
the Deputies of this canton are in conformity with
those of the Deputies of Lucerne. At Zurich the
Vorort has embodied two battalions of infantry,
a squadron of cavalry, a company of carabineers,
and a company of artillery. The cantons of
St. Gall, Thurgau, and Schaffhousen have been
recommended to call out their contingents.
These troops are assembled by the Vorort to
protect the Diet. At the same time the Vorort
has delegated M. ZELINDER and M. SULZER to Arau
and Berne, to watch the movements of the free corps.
The Deputies of Glaris have received instructions to
demand the expulsion of the Jesuits, as well as those
of Tessin. Bile town has voted in an opposite sense.
Friburg has voted that the affair of the Jesuits is
purely cantonal, and not within the jurisdiction of
the Diet. This canton has not acceded to the invita-
tion made to Lucerne to send away the Jesuits.
By a letter from Geneva, cf the 18th, we learn
that the Government of that canton, although Pro-
testant, and opposed to the encroachments of the
Jesuits, has refused to concur with the Radical party
in means for compelling the canton of Lucerne to re-
voke its decisions. Geneva was tranquil at the date
of this letter.

Madrid journals of the 15th and 16th inst. have
been received. On the 15:h, the royal assent had
been given to the Bill for converting into Consolidated
Three per Cents.-the credits proceeding from contracts
in anticipation of Funds, of Treasury Bonds, of In-
scriptions in the Centralised Floating Debt, of bills
drawn on the Treasury of Ilavannah, according to
the terms and at the rate established by the royal
decrees of the 26th of June, 13th of September, and
Bth of October of the last year. On the 16th, the
Government presented a Bill to the Cortes, for the
restitution of the whole of the unsold national property.
Letters from Bayonne announce that a serious military
conspiracy had been discovered at Vittoria, and up-
wards of forty persons had been arrested. The Phare
de Bayonne says, the movement is in favour of
ESPARTERO ; but this is extremely 'improbable.
Want of pay is a more likely cause.
•
On the Madrid Bourse, on the 15th, the Three per
Cents. closed at 33 for cash, and 33i at 60 days ;
the Five per Cents. at 24 1-16 at 60 days; and the
Coupons at 26! at 60 days.

The Paris papers are chiefly occupied with the de-
bate and comments on the Secret Service Money
Bill, but we do not find much in them interesting to
an English reader. The principal speeches made on
Friday were by M. BILLAULT and M. GuazoT.
The ostensible leader of the Opposition, for M.
THIERS tries to keep in the back ground, said the
great question was not whether the Cabinet possessed
the confidence of the Chamber, for on that point there
could be no doubt, but whether on their ejection their
successors could obtain it. In the discussion on the
Address the great questions of foreign policy had been
duly considered, and by the vote of the Chamber they
had been condemned. Had anything occurred, he asked,
to change the position of the Ministry since their de
feat ? Nothing whatever. The question therefore was
to ascertain if the interests of the country were to be
sacrificed to the Cabinet, or the Cabinet to the true
interests of France. The Cabinet was wounded to
death. It was no longer in possession of any influ-
ence abroad—it was perfectly powerless to carry out
any negotiation with foreign States. Such was the
general position of the Cabinet; and if details were
sought out, they would only prove the truth of his
assertions. The diplomatic affairs of France ought
to be directed with a firm hand, if success was to be
looked for—it was, in fact, impossible to do anything
with foreign Powers, as soon as they were obliged to
entertain fears that any treaty concluded with a
Ministry one day might be torn up next day by the
Chambers. In the same manner as the present situa-
tion of the Cabinet rendered diplomatic negotiations
impossible, so it presented serious impediments to all
improvement and progress at home—to all develop-
ment of manufactures and commerce. He then ad-
verted to the old worn-out subject, the right of
search—declared that the Minister of Foreign Affairs
on that point, as well as many others, had deceived
the Chamber, and the documents recently pub-
lished in London showed that the Cabinet had

not conformed to votes repeatedly and solemnly
given. He adduced other proofs of the incom-
petency of the Ministry, and concluded by call_

ing upon the Chamber to refuse a vote of con-
fidence. From the speech of BILLAULT and BARROT,
the only speakers of the slightest importance, it was
really evident that if the Cabinet had resigned there
was no compact party to occupy their place. M.
GUIZOT made a suitable speech in reply, to M.
BILLAULT, of which the following is a brief outline :

" With regard to the negotiations connected with the
right of search, he was really surprised to hear the Hon.
Deputy who had just spoken reproduce remarks which had
lately appeared in some of the public journals. Did the Hon.
Deputy suppose that, in a negotiation, when no official dis-
patches appeared, the affair was not being carried on ?
Did he believe that an affair thus managed could ever arrive
at a conclusion ? Official documents were the termination
of negotiations, and not the negotiations themselves. They
were carried on by private correspondence and verbal con-
versation, and it was not until things were brought to some
kind of accord that they were put in the shape of official
dispatches. The question alluded to had been for more
than two years the subject of negotiations carrying on
through the medium of their Ambassador to London, and
the result has been the subject of an official dispatch.
He should, however, have compromised the dignity of the
country, and the success of the negotiation, if he had made
public all the phases of the affair; and he should never
have reached the . result which had been obtained.
The visit to Windsor had been alluded to ; that moment
was, in fact, favourable to the negotiation, and it was then
pushed forward with vigour ; but after that period it had
been retarded by the dispersion of the English Cabinet.—
(Laughter on the Left.) He was astonished at the hilarity
of Hon. Members. Nothing was more natural than what he
had said. It was necessary for the English Cabinet to deli-
berate, and they did not assemble until the 9th January, and
this was the cause of the delay, not in the negotiation, but in
its conclusion.—(Hear, hear.) Some surprise had been ex-
pressed at not finding in the official dispatch may mention or
an argument which he had declared his intention of using
—the temporary character of the conventions—which had
been recognised by Lord Palmerston himself; the Hon. M.
Billault would, however, permit him to say that all the docu-
ments had not been produced.—( Exclamations from the Left.)
If every document relative to negotiations were to be pio-
duced, it would be impossible to terminate anything.—(Ap-
probation.) The negotiation had never, therefore, been
abandoned; it had merely been suspended at intervals, when
it would have been impolitic to have pressed them forward.
So much for the form ; now for the question itself. The
right of search was inefficient for the suppression of the
slave trade, and compromised the friendly relations between
the two countries ; these were the two arguments he had
used for its removal. It was due to the honour of France
not to let it be thought that she was indifferent to the sup-
pression of the slave trade ; and it was necessary that the
English Cabinet and the English people should be convinced
that the right of search had become inefficacious to attain
that end, and that other means more likely to succeed, and
less dangerous, might be found. The English Cabinet had
declared that they attached no other interest to the exercise
of that right than the suppression of the traffic. Two do-
cuments had been printed, and, notwithstanding the pub-
licity that had already been given to them, he must be per-
mitted to read them to the Chamber, in order to prove the
sincerity of the Government in what it had done, and it
would then be seen whether it could be again accused of
charlatanism.—(Approbation.) The Honourable Minister
here read a dispatch, addressed by him to the Count de
Jarnac, requesting him to call the attention of Lord
Aberdeen to the subject of the right of search, and pointing
out the powerful motives which induced him to desire that
some other mode of suppression of the slave trade might be
devised in its stead. The Chamber (continued the Hon,
Minister) would thus see that the question was clearly put.
It was not a mere modification of the treaties of 1831 and
1833 that was asked for, but a new plan to be substituted for
the right of search. The lion. Minister then read the answer
of the Earl of Aberdeen, stating the willingness of the Eng-
lish Government to substitute for the right of search any
other mode which might on examination be found equally
efficacious for the suppression of the slave trade. The Hon.
M. Billault (continued the Minister of Foreign Aflairs) ap-
peared to believe that no other means had been suggested,
but he was mist ken; several plane had been examined and

~---d•
-------- such°
discussed, but it would require time to determine oetbsobe
important question. The Chamber would thus see queta°
negotiations had been actively carried on, and OF .401
