CANADA.-The following communities:
ton, which we cut from the Montreal
Courier, is curious especially
on account of the source from which It
comes to us:
Lord John Russell. My LoRD-Can:
ada will at no very distant day, cease to
be part ofthe British Empire. YOU
YOURSELF have declared that when she
wishes, she may be SO. Happy will be-
the day when Great Britain gets rid Of
her and the evils which the possession of
her has occasioned. She has embarrassed
Great Britain's relation with the United
States--caused an immense expenditure
requires the presence of considerable
body of troops, which are much wanted
at home -and by the irremediable dis:
union amongst her Heterogeneous popula.
ton, distracts the attention ofIhe Colonial
Office from other Colonies. am aware
that the possession ofCanada bye. Britain
and not by another power, has its positive
as well as negative advantages, and ifthe
question were whether it were more ex-
pedient to retain or abandon her, it would
be necessary to compare accurately those
advantages with those disadvantages,
and TO ascertain to which side the balance
inclines. Such. however, is not the pres:
ent question. The only consideration is;
how Great Britain, in abandoning her,
shall dispose Of her? Now, if Canada is
abandoned, instead of being ceded; she
will Immediately, with the ready assent
other Ang lo:Saxon neighbors, )be incor-
porated with the United Siates.-WouId
such an event be for the interest ofGreat
Britain? No! the United States would
become too powerful. What then, should
Great Brain do? | answer, recede this
province to France; by so doing, the ieal.
ously which formerly existed between
Canada and the adjacent Anglo Saxon
settlements would be revived; French
Canada and the United States would be-
nighbors and enemies, and Great Britain,
holding the scales between those two
powers, would keep both in awe:

AN INGENIOUS SrRATAGEM.-Soms
years since, missionary, who was la
boring in the State of Louisiana for the
conversion Of the Indians, was preserved
from most cruel death in the following
manner: SOME of the most ferocious
tribes surrounded INN. and were upon the
point of taking his life. Having small
looking glass, which he had artfully con-
cealed beneath his clothes, he placed it
on his breast, and in very plaintiye tone
demonstrated with them on the cruelty
and ingratitude of their killing man who
had them all in his heart. And as the,
astonished savages, each in bis turn, be-
held his own figure in the glass; "a plecs
OF art they never had seen before, their
rage was Immediately changed into adj
miration and esteem for man who thus
had them all in his heart.

EDITING ANEwsPAPER.-The Lynn
News, an excellent paper,by the by,makes
the following sound remarks upon the
subject of editing a newspaper:
"We never could see the virtue of the
boast which is so often made by papers
and magazines, that so large portion of
their pages is original. Such originality
is too often maintained at the expense of
worth. The best exchanges of our ac>
quaintance are by no means those which
have the greatest amount of''original'
matter. There is more of original tact
and talent required to make proper and
practicable selections, than is put in re.
QUESTION by the production of the wanting
original papers, who seem to regard orig.
inality as the only requisite for a good
periodical. A GOOD newspaper is always
dependent upon other resources than its
own. Andth boast of periodical that
it is entirely original, is too often like the
boast Of library. if It should claim to
have the productions of only one author. y

The British Press and the Mexican
War.-The London Times of the 25,h
uIt., in long article on the Mexican war,
makes the admission that IS the conduct of
the American troops throughout the whole
war, hch, as far as regards their beha-
viour in the field, does honor to the race
from ,Chich they SPRING"
In subsequent article it makes the fol-
lowing comment on the dissatisfaction pro-
duced at Liverpool by the news that peace
with Mexico was apparently as far off as
ever: -
"If any citizen of the United State.
should be perversely persuaded tina: Eng
land desires either the discontinue or en-
barrassment of his country, he need only
observe how the arrival Of each successive
mail affects our great commercial commu-
mites. Calculations of exchanges and ex-
ports leave very little room for considera-
lions of jealousy, and political conclusions
altogether vanish compared with the pros
poets Of trade.'
The Leeds English Mercury says -
Whilst we own, but deplore, the bad
ness of their cause, itmust be admitted that
the military conduct of the American Off
GERS, and the bravery Of their men, may
be compared with the achievements of the
veteran troops of any European State. And
especially when it is considered that the
American levies are newly raised. and that
their generals have had comparatively little
experience in war, we apprehend any mil.
itary man of candor would award them the
highest credit for skill and daring courage
both in the field and in tie attack Of forti
fications. There cannot be doubt tina
the military resources of the United States
will have risen exceedingly in the opinion
of the world by the events of this war, not
withstanding the snfounded and injudiciou
ridicule which several Of our daily paper
throw upon Them"
