a WAR WITH ENGLAND -Blachwnod Magazire
for February deyotes article of thirty pages and
more to- 8" the defence of Canada" assumes the
fact OF a war with the United States in 1858, and
welcomes it with satisfaction. Z" The campaign"
says Blaokwood, lis just as likely to end by estab.
fishing new frontier for Canada, with Portland on
one flank and Lake Ontario on the other, as by
leaving the enemy in possession of a mile of Cam
ada territory" The writer argues that there will
be no rupture of'the peace now existing with the
United States, until their Government can place
gnnboats on the lakes in force adequateto the CON-
mand OF the St. Lawrence and its chain of inland
seas. The object Of the proposed war with the
United States is to obtain rectifcation Of the
boundary, bringing the line Of Canada down to the
open sea at Portland, and giving symmetry and
strength to their North American empire,

families OF note as will be willing to link themselves
with the secession heresy, for the sake of Mr.
slldea's amiable society, splendid balls and good

sionst.H Slidell has convinced him that The people
OF the North and South are Of two different and

circulates in the veins Of the South, while that of

IS the staple in the Northern composition that the
Southerners are gentlemen and ladies', while those
OF inc North are mere common men and women;
that the Northerners are traders and the Southern
ers not and that, therefore, there is between them
an Trepressibie copflict;' that slavery has moth
ing to do with the war and that its abolition would
be the ruin of the Southern States. as it already
has that Of the French colonies. These are sbma
OF the arguments with which the Sdells are

registry, and observing the remarks OF our pnohc
press upon the inpracticability Of recording the
name of each male inhabitant of this city within
reasonable time, would respectfully suggest
MAN for your consideration, which, If executed,
viii, conduce net only to the speedy accomplish
mcnt of obtaining the desired registry, but other
very important results. ...
As you are acting under the authority of Gen.
Lowell, as the military commander of this depart
mens Of our general Government, it would be
requisite TO call in the aid of our State authorities,
as the agent to be used is suhjectto their com
mand.
propose that you call upon the Governor to
order each Colonel of each militia regimentto open
an office foY the registry Of every person within
the regimehtai beat, and to appoint three officers
to perform that duty, with the powerand authority
to appoint substitutes to aid in relieving those
appointed in each regiment
This system would enable the militia officers to
have q sore thorough and reliable knowledge OF
every inhabitant Of their respective beats, and
thereby prevent The systematic evasion of military
service, which it is now SO difficult to detect and
punish, resorted to by so many.
II this suggestion be adopted, it would not delay
the present system in its operation, as it could be
proceeded with until the day when the new plan is
ready to be put in practice.
