PLAIN WORDS Fen COLONIAL
FAIRS.

Following the fashion set BY the Lon
don Times, the Canadian papers have
suarled at our Government ever since the
war broke out, and now that the Times
draws in its horns, they again follow SUIT
and become placable. One Montreal
journal finds place for two Singing let.
lers from correspondents in the United
States, in which some plain words are
spoken. Here is tbs concluding passage
of one Of these epistles
"The people that can equip and raise
such armies in year; build an imprsg-
nable vessel of war without a model in q
hundred days. and win twenty or thirty
victories in the same time, can take care
of themselves; and preserve their nation
al life, their national domain, and their
national repetition and prosperity, beyond
doubt.
Though not prophet, ! will venture
the prediction, that within the lives OF
some now living, perhaps in yours. SIR,
this nation, one and iuseparable as now.
will contain within its borders one hun
dred and fifty millions of human beings,
and not one slave. That result may re
quire some reyerses and scrihces, but
it is necessity, and must be accom-
