NEW NAVAL STATION AT vAweouvEn'a leland -
We understand that the British government have,
after due delibcrnlion, determined upon forming a
great depot and naval station at Vancouvers Island
on the Pacific II Is said that that island presents
great Inducements for the establishment Of naval
station, for il abounds with coal and tho soil Is very
good for farming purposes.
But i may be that The government of England
huvc other things In view, In addition to mere
val station on that island II is said that there IL
practicable route for railroad through 1.-The Rocky
Mountains, for connecting the Cnnndas with the
British possessions on the Pacific. II this Is true,
and snch speculation should be carried into effect
i will, Of course exercise an important influence on
the commerce Of tho world and especially on the re-
proceedings Of the British, nj vuncouver's Island
with a good dcal Of interest.--N Y. Herald.

A FAIR Hir.--The Washington Union, followed
by that portion Of the Democratic press, sympathiz
ing with H. in is nnti-dilnvan tendencies has set up
the cry Of prescription There is vast deal Of in
sincerity and cant In this The Democratic party,
both in and out Of power, have always been consis-
tent in the maintenance Of these two prnciplcsro
tallon In Office, and the duty Of the Government to
conidc its principles the administration Of those,
who desired their success. We have always thought
this policy perfectly defensibe. An administration
has not only the constitutional, but the moral right
to advance the principles Of right Government-not
only by its direct Recommendation, Of tho necessary
legislaton--but, by entrusting its measures to the
execution Of agents friendly to their success and by
that indirect influence upon public opinion, which
the possession Of Office necessarily gives. Now why
should Democrats object to the application Of their
own principles = Cong. Globe, Dem.

The war ii, E;a,rss;.,

Since the time Of Napoleon, mho
made war q business and q pleasure,
and who gave to France all the glory
she ever achieved, we never heard Of
Europe; all Europe being SO agitated
as at present. Wherever We cast our
eye on the map trouble presents itself
in some aspect--local troubles, secret
difficulties, and open war. England
has her difficulties in India and her
troubles in Ireland, and such is the
pressure upon her from various sources,
that she dare not take part in any of
the Continental difficulties and disputes.
Franco is in a state of transition, gradu.
ally approaching monarchy in some
shape; her Red Republicans are put
down, her clubs suppressed, her army
surrounding Paris, and her working
classes overawed and silenced. Italy
may be considered as conquered, though
still exhibiting brave and unyielding
spirit. Austria will repossess herself
of Lombardy and Venice, and the
Pope will be invited to re-occupy the
Vatican. For the present the curtain
of Liberty falls upon Italy. The Danes
have again commenced war with the
German Duchies, and have lost some of
their naval force. Germany cannot OBJ
tain an Emperor. The Hungarians are
beating the Austrians and may recover
their liberty. But the most important
feature in oil these movements is the
close alliance between Russia and Aus
trla, and the moment there is calm in
Europe their designs against Turkey
will be carried into effect. The Turks
expect it and are preparing for it, and if
ablow isstruck in the East, England and
France will unite against Russia and
Austria, and the war will be general.
While England retains possession of her
Asiatic colonies, she can never be safe
with Russia in possession of the Darda-
nells or her army concentrated in Cir
cassia. The eyes of the world will
shortly be directed towards the East as
indicating stirring events.
