MAN AND THE SorL.--in late debate
in the British Parliament on the New Zea-
land question, Mr.. Butler said: $. s,..
sit is preposierous to expect that the
existence Of such n population on portions
Of the soil Of vast country ought to pre-
clude the rest Of mankind from turning the
unoccupied soil to account. God gave tho
earth to man TO use--not 10 particular
races, to prevent al; other men from using.
Hear.] He planted the principle of in
crease in US; he limited our existence to
no particular soil or climate; but gave US
the power Of ranging over the wide earth.
apply to the savage no principle which l
should not apply to the most civilized peo-
pie ofthe world. Ifby any unimaginable
calamity the population Of France, for in-
stance, were reduced from the 25. 000, 900,
which it now maintains. TO 300 GOO, which
is about the proportion Of the population Of
New Zealand, and if these 200, 900 were
almost limited to Brit,annity and Norman
dy, and cultivated, as the New Zealanders
do, no more than one acre in thousand,
do you think we should allow this handful
Of men to devote that fine country TO per-.
petua barrenness?" [Cheers.
We have never doubted the truth Of this
proposition. II is one OF the widest fictions
that ever enteredthe brain Of man, that a
few thousand, or few hundred thousand
men may occupy continent, 20 the exclu-
sion Of as many hundred millions that
might derive sustenance from il. The
wrong committed by the settlers Of this
country was not in taking possession Of
what was necessary TO their subsistence,
but in maitrcatng the scattered races that
wandered over its surface. Instead Of in.
sulting, and thus destroying them, we ought
to have devised, from the beginning, a sys-
tenn Of measures for Incorporating them
into the civilized community. -.
But Mr.. Butler has stated but one prop
osition applicable to the settlement Of new
countries. Another one equally true is,
that the settlers in anew country have q
right to decide for themselves whether they
will continue in a state Of dependence on
the mother country, or set up for them

EXHIBITION OF THE GREAT BRITAIH.-.
So great was public curiosity to see this
wonderful steamship upon her arrival in
New York. that the agents foreseeing
their inability to exhibit their vessel and at
the same time sail on her regular day. gave
out notice that 25 cents would be char ged
for adminttance on board, and l2a cents;
additional to the engine room. This
sharge is thought to be just, in view Of adj
ditionai expense which her prolonged stay
in New York will occasion to her owners.
A par, OF the proceeds OF the exhibition
will be given to the Asylum for the Blind,
