the necessity and practicability Of opening

Amemorial Was adopted. It Is somewhat

Of the exposed condition Of our Northern
frontier as compared with the Atlantic coast
aud The defenses Of Canada.
It then explains the great commercial im-
portance Of the proposed ship canals-ttat
the present channels Of navigation ara inade-
quate to the demands of our growing trade
and commerce, and that enlarged facilities are
absolutely necessary. Many strong and i'm
rortant facts and statistics are presented In
support Of this argument.
The memorial then goes On to chow the

The etozes On either side occupied by Burnes

The foreign news BY the Columbia is

of Earl Russell on Scottish ground is sig.
nihcant Of a wide change in sentiment,
not Of the English mind, which we believe
has largely been right all the time, but in
the e1poncuts and trainers of British
policy. It is not such speech as this,
That Russell would hive delivered six
months ago, md if Mason had an

to leave, Paris.ward, shaking of the
dust OF British soil from his feet. It is in
dicative that the rebels have no hopes on

The cloud is settling fast over European
politics. It will not be long before the
Old World rulers will resemble any thing
else more than coyey Of ancient gossips
over their tea and knitting work, p1at-
fling at their ease Of our disturbed affairs.
There will be stern work for them nearer
home, which will nearly concern them
selves. The Car understands this, when
he boards out for while his navy on this
side Of the Atlantic in order to
have them ready for all con-
