In Parliament Lord Palmerston sta ted
that instructions had been sent to the Gov
ernor-General of Canada not to give up An
derson without express orders from the I'm
perial Government, and there was therefore
no chance of him being surrendered with
out the point being freely discussed. He
could not say whether the habeas corpus
writ would be obeyed in Canada, but it
could not be executed Immediately as the
St. Lawrence river was blocked up with ice
and it was impossible to take Anderson
through American territory, He believed
the case according to the treaty was quite
clear, and that the claim of the United
States must be established by showing that
Anderson was guilty of murder according
to the laws of England. No English jury
would convict Anderson of murder and the
claim was not likely to be substantiated.

GOVERNMENT AND ADMINISTRATION

GOVERNMENT AND ADMINISTRATION
The Government and Administration of this
country are so intimately connected, that nei-
ther can exist without the other. Destroy the
Government and you have no need of an Ad-
ministration. Destroy the Administration and
you have no Government left. Each man
would be left to act on his own impulses;
therefore, instead of protecting Government,
you would have rabble-a mob-running riot
over the land, pilfering and destroying prop
erty, and committing murder and all manner
of crimes to satisfy their own selfish lusts. In
view of these facts, it is absolutely necessary
TO maintain the Administration to have Gov
ernment.
We have been led to these reflections by
remark in the last Cleartieh Republican, "That
they [we] cannot discriminate between the
Government and the administration. Well,
perhaps. we cannot. We will not, however,
now stop to argue the point. 1t would be
waste Of time. Our country is in peril. Trai-
tors and usurpers are trying to destroy it.
They have their sympathisers and abettors in
the loyal States. Who are they? They are
easily known. On all fitting occasions you
hear them proclaiming themselves the espe-
cial friends of the Union. They say-we nev-
er "favored that doctrine'-we never "sym-
pathised with secession''-we rever "uttered
single word, line or sentence" in its favor
neither have we ssany desire to aid them in
thought word or deed"-and like the self
righteous Pharisees, seem to thank their Ma
ker "that they are not like other men,"
Will the editors of the Breckenridge organ
in this place make the proper application or
are they $50 sappy-headed that they cannot
discriminate between those who are loyal to
their country and those who are disIoyal2 If
they can not, ssit is their fault-not ours.
The people however, know the distinction''-
and we leave them to draw their own con-
clusions.
