GnEAT Misunderstanding Of the

strike the spires of Calcutta and before
they disappear from the population OF
Montreal. they gladden. British subjects
Oh the estern shores Of New Holland,
The British flag is never struck, aid

walls, are floating fortresses, with mill

A similar passage of great beauty is in
one of MIR. Webster's speeches, up,
on the same subject. He describes
Great Britain as power to which for
purposes Of foreign conquest and sub
Jogation, Rome. in the height of her
glory. is not to be compsred-a power
which has dotted over the surface of

Islanders TO be disarmed, IN as much as they

by pIundeung the L. 5 arsenal aud other
