ADMIRAL wELLEsLEY's RECEPTION.

To THE EDITOR or THE HERALD:-
In your paper OF the 10th inst notice that in your
account OF Admiral wellcsey's cordial reception at
Providence, II, l., your reporter makes the Admiral
say that she would take acquaint Her Majesty
the Queen OF the attering reception he had met &c
Now very much question whether Admiral Wellesley
did use these words in the terms given. What he
probably said that he would have pleasure IN
acqualnting his government to how he had been
treated in the United States. This may appear to
many distinction without difference but really is
not and Americans cannot be disabused OF
the notion that Queen Victoria personally has thing
to do with the government Of this Empire It's rela
tons to other countries.
1t is habit notice, OF many American papers drag
ging IN the Queens name ~ reference to State mat
tiers. No British admiral or diplomatic representative
abroad would ever think Of reporting 70 the Queen
direct The officer acts under the Admiralty the
other under the Foreign Office, which two
departments act under the government of the
day, who IN turn arc put IN Office and
kept in Office by the House of Commons, who
IN turn are directly responsible 70 the nation at large
by whom the members Of the House OF Commons
elected 50 IN reality, though not in name, the con
stuton OF tins country Is quite republican rs your
own and without some OF Its dlsad vantages For in
stance n much quicker change OF government be
effected here than in the United Statcs Tor hostile
House OF Commons elected by the people would soon
render change Of government inevitable " the PEG
pie willcd IT, without having 10 wait stated time Of
years till Presidents term OF Office expires, a. with
you.
But with all this Her Majesty has nothing TO do
whenever party pTeuOulnhttS IN the mousse Oh IOHl-
to that party Is the task assigned OF forming a
government, which government rules the Empire and
which government all officers of the Queen, whether
/ home or abroad are subscrvienL
''The Queen regns, but docs not govern, IS well

The sentence referred TO BY Mr. Cossham in the
