Nor is it only this gigantic bankruptcy for many

BRITISH CoLoNizArIoS-Yesterday brought US the
news OF two conquests of Great Britain, in differ
ent quarters of The Giobe-a million of subjects added
TO her Indian Empire, and group Of fertile Islands in
the South sea brought under her dominion.
II is said, that Britain has lately acknowledged the
| independence eli the Sandwich Islands, and that,
therefore, it is not probable that Lord Paulc who is
represented as person very likely to take rash and
imprudent STEP had any authority for wha, he hes
DONE from the Government of his country, which WILL

We are willing 10 suppose, for the present. that this
will be the case but we must remember, in the mean
time, that the seizure of The hlarquesas Islands, and
The Islands of O,aheile, by the French Government,
renders it exceedingly probable that the British Com
mander acted according 10 his instructions The con-
