More than fIlI majority of the evils conse-

Colonies themselves. We doubt. Indeed. whe.

raned in entertaining this doubt by two fact,
which cannot be CONFERENCE.-The first, that
the amount Of our exports 70 the Islands ha
not at all diminished, but on the contrary, il.
creased, since it has been falsely said by some
and faolshy by others, that we had lost iEe
trade-aud the second, that those sections Of

West India Commerce moi only do not exhlbl.

state of feesg existing in and Rear the seapofh

&c.-So that, in truth. we do not think the
failure of Mr.. McLanet to effect this grand d1.
ject of his mission, the attainment Of which was
TO throw halo oil glory around this admins
traiion, affords the slightest reason for regret
Indeed, seeing the purposes TO which 1t woul5
have been applied to the bosterng up of

downwards by the weight OF their own ncoh.

it would have been productive of no beneh',-
we are inclined 10 the belief that the failure o.
MIR. McLane ought 10 he hailed as a naIIonas

Expectations equally as highly wraugh', ana
We fear equally unsuhstanl ial, have been form
