form schemes of confederation and organize
effective land and naval forces for self-1e-
Tense, with the assurance that the Imperial
Parliament will throw no obstacles in the
way, will probably not be received with any
great amount Of satisfaction, in Canada at
least.
Apparently anxious, however, as the Bri-
fish Government is to get rid of the Canadas,
it is well that the people of the United States
do not show any great amount of eagerness
10 get possession of the territory England
thus proposes to abandon. Any movement
on our part towards the annexation of Canada
would have excited British jealousy in a
moment, and although it is perfectly plain
that all the British possessions on this
continent will at some not very distant day
belong to us, the British people would
scarcely be human if they did not view the
prospect of the absorption of SO much of their
territory by a rival nation with pangs
of regret. The attitude which
England has assumed of late towards Canada
suggests the probability that if the negotiations
were conducted with discretion and delicacy
we might obtain a portion at least of the
country to the north of us as a set-off to the
Alabama claims. We in reality need the
territory to the south of the river st. Law
renoe in order that we may command one
bank of that commercial highway from the
lakes TO the sea, and in the Northwest VAN
~couver's Island, which will give us entire con-
troll of Puget's Sound. The rest of the Bri-
fish North American dominions we need not
sigh for, but the portions we have named we
ought to have, and may possibly obtain on
easy terms if our diplomatists will only man
age the prosecution of our claims for damages
against England with a reasonable degree of
skill and prudence.

WHITTEMORE

The only practical results of the investiga-
tion into the sale of cadetships by members
of Congress- which was ordered by the House
Of Representatives last session, were to COM
pei the resignation of the South Carolina
c~arpet-bagger W~hittemore, and to prevent
his taking his seat after his reelection. The
action of the House in refusing to readmit
W~hittemore was a stretch Of authority which
appeared to be essential unde all the circum-
stances, and which gave general satisfaction,
as it was the only real punishment to which
the scamp was subjected. With the exeep-
ton of the loss of a certain amount of his
salary as a member of the House, however,
the action of the House appears to have been
a gain rather than otherwise with White
more, and to have increased his popularity
with his constituents.
He professed to have given the money he
received to the colored churches and schools
Of his district, and that il was not difficult
for him to represent himself as a martyr
suffering for the sake of his constituents,
rather than as a criminal who barely escaped
a degrading punishment, was plainly shown
