MT hihn III the eye Wttn CrONUdT!'
With multiplication Of channels for pubca-
ton, and with large reductions in the cost of
bringing out books, the increased production of
volumes of so-called Poems by every body
from A to q has become alarming. especially
when on good authority we learn that the pres
ent age is TO be credited with less real poetry
than its predecessors. fear that every young
gentleman who has chanced to write good copy
of rers de societe-by which | mean good" as
judged by the audience to whom it was submit
ted-has somehow fallen into the error that it
therefore behoves him to publish a volume of
Poems" And what renders this inhiction
more sad is that the majority of the people are
satisfied that all verse is poetry, without having
the most rudimentary knowledge of the rules of
verse, or the faintest appreciation of the genius
of poetry. In the interest of poetry venture to
appeal to the only people who can stamp out the
disorder-the critics of the Press Having not
sufficient time carefully to weigh the merits of
every claimant for the bays, they prefer, in the
kindness of their hearts to 'et down easily :"
and thus it is that their Favorable notices are ap-
pended by the dozen to every volume of doggrel
that can find publisher. If they would but re-
feet that-supposing those notices to be of any
real value-we have, according to their account,
more true poets in this age $50 singularly desti-
tute of poetic geuius) than in any preceding time,
they would, | think, see the justice-to all con-
cerned-of ''ettiDg down easily by absolute
silence.-Tom Hood, in London Society

THE REIGN OF STUPID PoErRY.-In these times
of innumerable periodicals, when every man
thinks himself poet who can write four more
or less halting lines with only two rhyme"
among them, it becomes matter of vital impor-
tance that those who have the interest of ltera-
ture at heart should fight good fight for purity.
In comic verse, and especially in burlesque, We
are constantly meeting with rhymes" that CRATE
on q sensitive ear like discord in music. We are
told that they are good enough for comic verse
in proportion to the triviality of which, how
ever. perfection Of execution should be strictly
enforced" Perfection is absolute, and he who
instead of striving for it, is content to write slip
shod verse, must also be content to rank with the

Of chiedom would become less and less, until they
vanish altogether while by the investment of Prus
sian capital and the introduction Of Prussian settlers
the settlers would be speedily placed
in the minority. They would be in position like
that of the German colonts in Australia but undera
less liberal Government.
The establishment Of any strong government orPro-
ectorate in Fiji would be clearly beneficial to the Aus
traan colonies, in commercial sense for new and
extensive fields for enterprise would he opened, and
markets created. But the existence in the imme
date neghborhood of the Australian colonies of such
power would be very incOnvenent, to say the least
of it, in the ofa Supposng that Power to
be connected with Prussia there would be cause to
gard it with suspicion, because in its dealings with
Poland and with " Denmark and the Duches," /" Prus
sia has been far from scrupulous- as well be
conceived. If Great Britain means to retain these
colonies there would be necessity in time of war,
whenever war became probable, detach large and
costly force for their protection and then, their
would greatly suffer by the neighbcrhood of
an enemys naval station. No doubt, that station
might be captured, but this would be very trouble
some and expensive piece of business. If the Austria
las to be cast O-as many people seem to think
not improbable-then the neighborhood of such set
tement would be still more dangerous to them. If
FIJI to remain in its present state, and the Aus
traas were to be forced to a national exis-
tenee, but short time would elapse, FIJI would
be absorbed into the State. But very long
any such nationality be created, FIJI will in all
probability, have strong government, of some kind
other The difficulties of the case they at pres
ent exist, must therefore be fairly grapped With.
Seeing, then, the risk which persistence in the
present nOn-intervention policy of Great Britain in
relation to FIJI, will be attended and looking at the
magnitude of the British interests which being
created in that Archipelago it is to be hoped that the
last application will be favoraby received than
the first. There will be the less for turning
deaf to the requests of the native chiefs and Bri
tsh settlers, because the present shape of these
quests makes it more easy to comply with them, with
out violating Those main principles which the British
Government have laid down for its guidance
in such matters. There would, apprehend, be no
difficulty in derising such plan while it would
afford all necessary aid and protection both to the FL
jan chiefs and the white settlers, would place the
protecting power any risk Of being involved in the
political complications and inter-island which
would probably arise out of assumption of resolute
sovereignty.

FIJI.-From Fiji we have files of the Times to the
23rd April, from which we take the following ex-
tracts =
large, important, and influential meeting of the
settlers Of Tavuni held at Yuma the 9th April,
with the object of opposing the views put forward in
pamphlet secently circulated advocating the forma-
tion of an Independent Republican Government in
FIJI. Mr.. Holmes unanimously called to the chair
Mr.. Mcconnell moved the first resolution, which was
seconded by Mr.. Macnamara,-" That we the settlers
of Taviun earnestly protest against the formation of
Of Republic laid down in the published pamphlet,
regarding those principles highly dangerous to the
peace, advancement, and prosperity of these islands
but that would hail with delight laws sanctioned by
foreign Power to settle any disputes arising among
the whites" Mr.. Hamilton proposed and Mr.. Logan
seconded, amendment to the effect that an inde-
pendent selfgovernment is desirable" but the amend
ment had very few supporters and the resolution
carried by a large and over wbelming majority. Mr..
Hamilton then proposed the second resolution which
was seconded by Mr.. Logan" That this meeting
resolves that Republic be formed acknowledged by
all foreign Governments and conducted according to
the principles agreed to by the FTian public" Mr..
Waters proposed an amendment, which seconded
by Mr.. Ducker,-" That an attempt to form Inde-
pendent Republican Government is yet quite prema-
ture, and at the least injudcious.' The amendment
was carried almost unanimously, and the resolution
fell to the ground. The meeting was informed from
Tui Cakau that he would expect those favourable to
Republic to protect themselves from native violence.

maintenance of federal authority from the chiefs and
nennle making sneh alienations .-.r

maintenance of federal authority from the chiefs and
people making such alterations. I-r
code of laws should be established founded upon
the British system and principles of Jurisprudence. but
with such notifications the peculiar Circumstances
of the country might render necessary. Legislative
power should to that end be vested in the federal
council but the right veto any enactment or decree
of that body for the consideration of
his government, should be ensured to the principal
officer of the protecting power. There might, with
eat advantage be reference to the Governorof one
of the Australian colonies important matters Of
legislative administrative character, and right OF
appeal to one the Australian Supreme Courts from
the judgements of the Fan tribunal in certain
of the gravest kind.
These are the outlines of system of government
which would submit be suited to the present state
Of Fiji and its people-natives and setters-and which
would have sufficient elasticity to admit of its being
easily amended and modified from time to time, as
circumstances might require. Out of it would grow,
almost impercep.by, but with not the less certainty
strong and efficient administration, the country be-
came more settled, and it advanced in wealth and
importance; while by the very existence of such rule
this advancement would be greatly accelerated 1t
would, too, be sefsuppOrtng, very nearly so from
the first.
If the British Government should persist in decliD
ing to render any aid in this good work, it will have
no right to complain if other power should be ap
pealed for such aid, and, by prompt and favora
bic response, should acquire protective supremacy
in these splendid islands-the West Indies of the
South Pacific. There be very little doubt of such
response from some other national government, if
that of Great Britain should be blind to its own
best interests, to reject this last application from
the Fian chiefs and settlers. If, however, it should
SO happen that such gove-nment-in the inierven-
ton of which the ian ies and settlers would be
disposed to submit-can be prevailed upon to render
the necessary assistance, then they must set them
selves earnestly to work to what they do, un
aided, for themselves. They must try to secure the
establishment of native government, and under its
authority of some such central tribunal and systems
of executive legislative and judicial administration,
as we have Swallowed out The settlers must strength
and assist that government the utmost of their
power, render it, if possible not only practi
cy efficient for present purposes, but capable of ad
vancing the country advances. To that end they
must a strong guiding influence in every
branch of this administration but this influence must
be exercised by udieious and with the greatest
possible caution and moderation. Not only must
everything be done in the and by the authority
be of such bona de character that its veritabe
existence and freedom of action be questioned
by foreign powers.
