with speed and certainty, and the fear of
punishment deter aggressors and furnish
US reasonable hope of security.
The outrage we complain Of was COM
United fifteen months ago, aud what has
been done 10 get redress On the 29d Of
May, four months after il was perpetrated,
Mr.. Stevenson stated The particulars in q
letter 10 Lord Palmerston, with demand
Tor such satisfaction as the nature of the
case demanded. That satisfaction could
be nothing less, than the delivery oil the
murderers up TO our authorities for trial
and punishment. On the 9th Of Jan. two
whole weeks after the receipt Of that let
ter, Lord Pa!merston found time TO inform
MIR. Stevenson that his communication
had been received and would have that at
tentlve consideration from the British gov
eminent, which its importance demanded,
and that is the last we have heard of the
negotiation, upon which the honor Of our
country rests.
Nine long and weary months have elaps-
ed since that time, and nothing, absolutely
nothing has been done further 10 obtain
redress. How long will it take at this rate
to settle the boundary question by negoci-
alton, il Is months are required to ask a
question and get no reply. Redress for
these wrongs should be demanded temper
ately but firmly, and if satisfactory reply
was pot obtained in 4S hours afterwards,
the power of the nation should enforce the
claim and take the redress without further
ceemony.-[ Daily Bu6alonian.

Alburgh, that, on the 9Th inst. this town
held town meeting on the subject oil
nightly depredatons and passed some reso-
lutions on the subject, appointed commit
tee to procure arms for the time being,
and a delegate TO call upon Governor Jeni-
son to provide force to guard the persons
and property of our citizens. The first
named Committee procured arms, and on
their way TO a guard OF citizens, raised by
direction of the Town, the arms were seized
with the team and man by the name of
C. II. Clark, the whole of which were de-
tanned until the next day, when after
much trouble and delay they were given
up. We are blest with u. S. troops, as
it would appear for no better purpose than
TO dsam the citizens, while the Canadian
tories are burning up their property. The
Governor has furnished us arms, and a
guard of IS men has been raised, who
have efectually arrested the work ofincen-
diarisn up to the present time. hope

better employment for his troops than that

"The Canadians don't arant their Lilerty.

"The Canadians don't want their Lilerty. ,
This is the language of the torie, and
their jackals. To prove their assertions,
they ask most significantly "if they desired
independence, why didn't they JOIN the
Prescott! and Sandwich forces 2" To an
Swer this is easy. Every one almost lnows
that the Patriots had been driven from
the frontier towns across to the American
side. That the British had statione, up
on the frontier, the most bitter tories among
the volunteers, besides the black lroops
and regulars, to prevent communication
from the American side, with the P;triots
in the interior of the Province. Until
communication was opened by a strong
force, it would be folly for unarmed men,
in the face of the British regulars and vol
unteers to attempt to reinforce party
upon the lines. The first motion of heirs
against the government would have been
the signal for their arrest and imrison-
ment, for the torch TO be applied to their
dwellings, and for the plumber and oonfs-
cation of their property.
If the Canadians do not desire change
of government, why are 10000 foreign
soldiers needed in the Province? Why is
the Liberty of the press destroyed, and the
Liberty OF Speech another name for trea-
SOM Why is the trial by Jury and all
constitutional Liberty al olished3 Why
does martial law reign, and why is despot-
ism established and enforced by British
bayonets? There are other reasons, which
might be mentioned, the existence ofwhich
is incompatible with the idea that the Ca
nadians are satisfied with the iron hand of
oppression that hangs over them. But let
the above suffice for the present.

WAR,

That the United States will 60 to war
with England, no one ought for moment
to doubt. That Congress will formally
declare war at its next session, we sincere
Iy believe. 1t is not impossible, but that we
may have war sooner.
The American Congress or the Ameri-
can People will not suffer the American
Flag, captured at Schlosser, to remain
much longer in triumph at Toronto. The
British may boast Of the savage deed that
sent the bodies OF our murdered fellow cit
liens over the falls of Niagara in burning
steamboat. They may glory in butcher
ing deienceless and sleeping Americans, in
an American vessel, moored at an Ameri-
can wharf, and protected by the American
Flag. Vengeance sciH be taken for that
bloody outrage!
The honor, dignity and independence of
our country will be maintained. The star
spangled banner Of this Union is stained
with the blood Of American Citizens by
the troops Of proud, naughty, insolent
England. The stain is deep and must be
wiped out. The Stars and Stripes must
float again, sustained with their country's
dishonor.

of hosiies, and accordingly met yester-
