while the question of actual war is altogether nnde-
cded. is not justified by the nature Of things. Be

eared against Russia consols went from 99l to seS,
and within syyo months they had recovered to 9i4

was nearly twice high as al present, and the stock
Of bullion at the bank was considerably lower

The Times understands ths, this communication,
though couched in the frmest language, presuUe'
that The Federal Government will not refuse to make
honorable Teparaion ior an Illegal act. The Times
has but small hope of such di.ayOwal
At the date Of the last dispatches, it argues, the
act Of the Captain OF the San Jacinto had been ac-
eepted by the Northern public. The New-lork
Journals were urging his promotion that naval
officer had the spirit TO board British vessel and carry
of rebels is enough TO insure a storm OF popularity.
BY the time Earl Rnsses dispatches arrive, the
multitude may have already declared TO the Govern
ment the treatment which Captain Wilkes is to re-

nntil the Spring returns, when we can make II Sc
care The danger TO Montreal, % any other point
Of the frontier, is less. Canada should not rely too
