on their part ; their idleness is lhe cause ul their poverty; their iud'cylenec is the cause of iheir po- Veri‘y’, their improvidence is lhc Baum: 0i their poverly. What is Ilie l’émedy? The most ell’icient way bl remnving their poverty, is '0 1'0â€" move the cause. This is: 10 be done by themselves. Industry and frugality banish poverly and dis- lress. Poverty cannot dwell will] industry and frugality. Slo‘ah and Squulid povcrly are inseparable companions Gouxmellorsthink that they have done their part, when they have compelled the industrious and the frugal to build houses of refuge for the idle, the thrift- less, the improvident and the vorthlcss, and provide them with every comfort. \Vould they not act a more noble part, were they to persuade those worthless men, and perhaps more worthless wo- inen, to change their course of life, and do something to provide for themselves in aluwful way. They find no difficulty and feel no delicacy in getting laws on- acted to compel the provident and the noble-minded to support the idle and the worthless. Why do they show favour to the idle and worthless, and leave them free men and women to drink and spend, and do just as they please with the fruit of their labour, or with what they ' obtain as alms, and why do they carefully avoid anything that can possi- bly hurt their feelings. Since council- lors see no harm in getting laws enacted to compel the industrious and the frugal to provide for the idle and wasteful, how is it that they can see any wrong done, in encroaching on the liberty of the idle and worthless, and in compellng them to work and do something for themselves, and to prepare for n stormy day ‘2 If compulsion is just, proper, and reasonâ€" able, in the caselol’ the working members ofsociety, is it not usjnst, pro; or and rea- sonable, in the ease of the idle members of society? It is not left optional with the industrious and frugal whether to sup- port the idle and imprevident. It- is compulsion in their case; is it not as just proper and reasonable that the idle and improvident should be compelled to build houses, and provide food and clothing for themselves, as thth the in- dustrious and frugal should, in many cases, deprive themselves of necessary teomforts, in order that they may keep them in fulness and in idlenes: '3 \Ve have stated that (liWei'eiit agencies are required to remove the great (541505} ‘of poverty. The statesman, the parent? xthe school teacher, the Preacher of the iGospcland the poor himsell‘ require to do several parts. Facts demonstrate that the change can be effected if the proper remedy is applied. The combined religious and intellec- tual system of education in the Paro- chial Schools of Scotland has been. re- ;garded as productive of the highest :and best kind oi‘intelligence, as Well as of industry and frugality, and those 'IUAL)’ ieenugs of honor that recoil at the idea of receiving aims as beggars. Few, «few are to be found amongst those who reâ€" cceived the usual amount of religious and .iotellmtuai training in’ a parish School :in Scotland, whose feelings would not recoil at the idea of becomingr beggars, and who would not sooner perish than:be beggars. Sir Walter Scott in “ The Abbot,” only expresses the well known sentiments and feelâ€" ings of his proud and high minded country women, and country men, when he represent Magdalene Granie as reâ€" fusing aims, and as saying; with the utâ€" most scorn to the Lady of Avenal, “ Am I of the race of Cain, proud lady, that you offer me gold ;” and when on another occasion he represent Roland Grame as saying, “ Forgive me, lady, and let me go hence, with the con- sciousness that I have not been degrad- ed to the point of accepting aims, but the gold I cannot take, I am no beggars brat. My grandmother begged from no one here, nor elsewhere. She would have perished sooner on the noor.” Magdalene Grame, and her grandson Roland Grame, were too high and noble minded to stoop to receive ahns. There was something to.) degrading and too humiliating in steeping so very low. An observer whose testimony has receiv- ed the seal of heaven, gives us the result oi'his personal observations; “ I have been young, and now am old ; yet have Inot seen the righteous ibrsaken, nor his seed begging bread.” The spirit displayed by the County ‘Couneillors is a different spirit from that displayed by Sir \Valter Scott. The County Conn; cillors hold up to view the poor house as a great prize to be obtained. They may depend upon it, that many will contend for the prize, if no powerful opposing and counteracting influences are at work. It seems a necessary conâ€" sequence, as any cause and efi'ect, that these boys and girls whose childhood and youth were spent at a parish school, in daily and familiar intercourse with the wisest, most upright, and most noble minded men and women, who ever walked on the face of the earth, should through life retain a portion of the \vis- dom, excellence, integrity and noble spirit of those in innintainingr inter- course with whom they spent their .childhood and youth. We go farther, and maintain, that it seems a neeessaryl consequence,as any cause and effect, that these boys and girls whose childhood and youth were spent in a parish school in obtaining knowledge of the divine perfections should, through life,:i‘etain the deep impressions made upon theirli young and tender minds by their interâ€"’ course with these pcrl'eetions. By having their intellectual and moral faculties cultivated, refined and purified ; by beingr brought in contact and close familiurily with the divine 1urri‘eetions, they imperceptibly grew in resemblenec 'totho divine nature, obtained einancL potion from evil principles, ‘ed nitrate and relish i'or \' and excellent. rat is noble and acquir- , Familiarity uith the, H; .._i H: 7n divine pei‘fcctions, elevated, refined:- and enobled llicii- minds, and prevented them from falling into the ranks of the debased and brutalizedl and from relishâ€" ing and pursuing gross pleasures. Their early acquaintance with patriarchs,~ pro- phets, apostols and Jesus never loses its influence. W hat may be the result of the no religion system, (can we call it thc‘ infidel system) adopted in Canada, we‘ do not say. Assuredly the fruits that‘ grow on the tree ofintidelity are never good, never sweet, and never pleasant, and never profitable. They are not the fruit of'tlie tree of life. We readily grant that the advantages of mere hu- man knowledge are immense; but hu- man knowledge possesses no power to re- move the moral blight and desolation of immortal splrit that is in man. Dr. Wardla'v says “in the history of our own part of the Island, according to ‘ Fletcher of Salton, not much more than a century has elapsed Since it abounded in mendicity and its attendant disorders and miseries, to a degree hardly credi- ble : --and the happy change which has since taken place, and which has raised Scotland to the distinguished honour of being pointed to by all our Southern orators, and authors on this department of political economy, as an example of sobriety, industry, intelligence, and genâ€" eral morality, among the peasantry and artisans, has been imputed, and, al- though other causes may have co-operati led, in avery considerable degree, justly imputed, to the national system of paro- chial education, instituted ‘ about the very time referred to, when the better instruction ofthe youth was pronounced by Fletcher to be peculiarly necessary.” Facts prove that the great doctrines taught by the Reformers effected the great change in the character of the peo- ple of Scotland. Ministers possessing a portion ofthe spirit of John Knox pre- sided over the church, the school and the family, and regarded themselves as , appointed by God to watch that alll knew and were influenced by these doctrines. The bold and open workers of iniquity, whom they could not influence, the * gave into the hands of the magis- ,t*zite. The gospel is still the great Ie- medy, Jesus still says, to the poor is the gospel preached. The gospel is the great remedy that raises the them from rice, wretchedness and misery. It has lost none of its living influence. \Vlien the gentle warmth of the Saviour‘s love touches and melts the cold and frozen heart of the poor, it is no longer the seat and abode of moral corruption, from Iwhich every Vice takes its rise, but it becomes like the garden of Eden, which produced whatever was pleasant to the lsight and good for food. ‘ “'e have no doubt but that the lion. \V. 13.

The Imperial Parliament has passed “abill for authorizing a guarantee of intereston a loan, to be raised by Ca- nada, tOWards the construction of a railway connecting Quebec and Hali- fax,” which work is considered to be essential to the completion of Confederw tion. The 145th section of the Imperi- al Act, for the union of the provinces, pro- vides :â€" “Inasmuch as the Provinces of Canada, Nova Scotia, and NeWBrunswick have join- ed in a. Declaration that the Construction of the Inter-colonial Railway is essential to the Consolidation of the Union of British North America, and to tho Assent thereto of Nova. Scotia and New Brunswick, and have consequently agreed that Provision should be made for its immediate Constrnc-‘ tion by the Government of Canada: There- fore, in order to give efi‘ect to that Agree’ ment, it shall be the Duty of the Govern- ment and Parliament of Canada to provide for the Commencement, within Six Months after the Union, of 3 Railway connecting the River St. Lawrence wlth the City of Halifax in Nova Scotia,3nd for theConstruc- ‘ tion thereof without Intermission, and the ‘ Completion thereof With all practicable | Speed.” Having read the debate, in the Im- perial House of Commons, upon the in. [reduction of this measure, we were forcibly impressed with the idea that Mr. John Bull has an exceedingly gruff way of granting, what he supposes to be, a favour ; he expresses a wish that his North American Provinces should be formed into one Conf'edcrationfi and when he finds we cheerfully comply with} his wishes, he tacks on a condition that we must borrow from him three million pounds sterling, and expend it on a military Railway, and then very grudg- ingly consents to endorse our paper, say. ing the unkindcst things he can think ‘of’; it has become a habit with the old gentleman, or" late, to manifest this sort of feeling towards us, whenever an op- portunity was afforded him ; we confess that we cannot see any good cause for it7 and are not so sure that the much lauded scheme of Confederation, with its additional burthens, will prove to be a panacea for the' humiliatiens we are every now and then treated to â€"of'_course our duty as loyal subjects of Her Majes- ty, Queen Victoria, will prevent us from taking serious offence at Mr. Bull's peculiarityâ€"but it cannot be construed into treason to say that. taking all the circumstances into consideration, it axis both uncalled for and exceedingly dis- agreeable to us as Canadians. I The wholevdebt ot the B.N.A. Provin-l cos, in 1865, exceeded sc'vcidyqftum and a half milhens of dollars ; ($74,516,â€" 678), in addition to this we are now compelled by the Imperial Act of Con- federation to build the “ Intereolonial Railroad,” which will extend from the River du Loup Station of the Grand Trunk, Canada’ East (or Province of Quebec,) in ai'direet line, south east, through New Brunswick to Truro, Nova Scotia, and there form ajunction with a line of Railway, already established, run- ning southfrom 'l‘ruro t0 the City ot‘IIn- litax; the'eost of this great undertakingr is estimated to cast twenty millons of dol- lars, which sum we are to borrow, and thereby increase our indebtedness to about ninety/five millions! and appear to have no choice in the matteréâ€"some- thing like Messrs 11.

Perhaps some wiseacre can inform”: us ; we “want. light !" \Ve can assure our facetious friend that it was not for lack of material that the selection was made, it was an acciâ€" dent, arising out of the circumstance of Mr. S. E. Horn having promised to at tend the n1eeting,and take part therein ; those whom he led to expect him, fully intended that he, as a professedly ar' dent conservative, and as editor and and proprietor of the localjournal of the Riding, should behonored by the post of Secretary. “’hen the hour. for busii ness arrived, Mr. Horn was non est, hence the arrangement which apâ€" pears to give our cotemporary some un- easiness.

As a people we have heretofore been considered very undemonstrative on ‘ great public occaswns; calm, staid, almost unmoved, politicians during an election, and in fact summing up the arguments principally adduced by our cousins s‘outhward ; it might be presumed, that we rest u’f‘filer the imputation of even a lack’of p Wotism. This characteristic as they are pleased to term it is attri- buted to the influence of the Mother Country, find our institutions which are ‘ somewhat similar. ETheir reasoning may , be partially right,‘ but there are very few Canadians who do not feel a conscwus pride in the qniet and orderly manner in which elec- tions are contested, and closed. and who ‘wouldfnot deeply deplore the loss of this ‘said characteristic. And as regards the taunt of lack 'of love of country we hoid that it is unnecefiary for buncombe on the one hand and bowie knives on the other, to proclaim that. _However other people's opinions are not a matter of vital importance to us, especiâ€" ally at the present moment, further than as they appear particularly anxious about what is tet‘med our unusual display of feeling, and as they have noted and com- mented on it to such an extent, it must be something coniderable,â€"aml it is,â€" ancl 11; should be. We have changed from a number of separate colonies, and become a confederâ€" ation,â€"â€"We have displaced one form of Government, and chosen another,â€"â€"we have passed successfully through one grand phase of our existence as a people, and now are about to attempt the second more arduous more lofty,â€"â€"â€"our names as separate colonists were not unknown in the great epitome of the \Vorld’s His- tory; and now as the “ Dominion of Canada" we strive for yet more honor- able mention. Nor when the magnitude of the step is considered, not forgetting the fact that we are now in the very act of transition, does it seem unreasonable, that Americans should note the “ inlenes feeling” displayed; nor that they should be suflieiently interested to watch narâ€" rowly the future progress of events. That the greatness, I might almost say the solemnity of the occasion, Warrants and receives the earnest consideration of thefi'ast majority of Canadians, is every- where apparent, and though there are many who have allowed factional feelingr to intervene,t’ae great mass of the people “sire that thisflushould‘ “cease They have witnessed its ravages yea after year, when sect was against sect, creed against creed, and yet no good end at- tained, till this hadmyielded to, a com- promise; intact to such an extreme has this (at times been-carried that they ap? parently but paused at the, great final when in the hands, of sectional violence party-government and country hare mingled in one dread chaos. It'we will learn a lesson without paying too dear for it what does this teach us? what does the “ all past” prove it not What one 6f England‘s philOsophers has said “that violent party~men should be exclud- ed by the‘ people from sitting with that body, Whose business it is to iniate a great and extended system." There are those who say it is not factionle stril’e they are engenderingz, that it is not the old fires they are relighting, but it is hard to be supposed b7 the most leniently ins clined that it can ossiny be anything: else. A partv inT lie 'fil'fi 'plh'ée' niiist have a principle, a basis, a, foundation ; something to desire, something to up- hold, withoutthis it becomes a" sect, a ( faction, ebond, a unitydo v- rote for, to " fight fierfa semething or somebody, they know not What, or who, solicitous only about beingr informed that the opinion was adVanCQd by, or the party is one of themselves. But assertion and denials of partyism, sinking into firetionismmith learned dissertations on numerous other iSms, have run their course, and simply ended where they only eouldend,~ in con» fusion worse confounded. There is, however, a certain inconsist- ency in the two halves of a partv, as- serting that to all intents and purâ€" poses they are one and. indivisable. when at the same, time they are anerine‘ be- tween tno’leadcrs. each of whom has insinuatcd a different policy in pro speetiveiand who undeniably stand at daggers drawn. That this breach in the Councils ofthc Reform Party is day by day widening, nmlonger requires proof. The feeling has even gone so far, that reformers, with no other stain on their political life,have sufiercd fierce antago- nism because they adhered to the Coali- tion, after Mr. Brown had retired ; be- cause they were brave enough to say, “this coalition was formed with. the sanction of our leaders, for a defined purpose, and while it honestly enâ€" deavours to obtain the end in view, we will givcib'eour support.” And to this forbearance and manly conduct we are in a great measure indebted for Confederation. Thus‘ then, we have what maybe termed Coalition Reform- ers and Brownites, but it is not ours to judge between the endeavouring claim- ants for the leadership; there is howâ€" ever, one circumstance which we will glance at. Mr. Brown, with all his faults, mosthonored, lately retired from parliament, for the purpose of devoting,r his undivided attentionlto the conduct- ing ofhis journal, which it is generally understood is to meet a rival of no mean pretension for Reform supportwwhen the Delegates return. The propriety of the retirement of any man from a post, at a critical moment, is questioner], how much more so when that member had the syinpatli'r, and support of a large and extended party. Certainly, in one sense, and only in one sense, that of “personal individuality" has he the right to chemo. but that does not‘ nor should it anml the opinion people will place on the act. Nor does it at all justify him, tint he has at last realized the truth long known to others, that the paper made friends which the, Editor lost. The Virtue of CompromiSa This being then the undisputecl posi- tion of the two halves of the Reform Party, would it be an unseemly request, that they would when meeting . with their old opponents,in fair and open eon- test, remember that great Reformer SydneySmith’s 0ft reiterated,saying that, “all great alterations in human affairs are produCed by compromise.” About the other, (\‘Mr. McDougal) we will not trouble. There is always danger in great changes, innate in the very act of changing ; and in exact proportion to the extent or magnitude of such change, so that to put in operation a new system, requires more of forbearance from its pponents, and more unity of action a- mong its friends, than the initiatory and final proceedings necessary to emâ€" body it in a system, it IS in fact much harder to put in force the law- than to make it. It was impossible otherwise than by folgetting party to get the act of Confederation. What then will be necessary to initiate it in practice. The Hon. G. Brown, said' on the 22nd June 1864‘, in his speech at Quebec, “ let ps endeavour to rise superior to the pitif’ulness of party politics in the interest of our Country,” 'and What he said then has ten fold force now.

On Monday evening last, the young ladies attending the Seminary of Mrs Campbell of this village, presented her with ahandsome Silver Cake Basket, exâ€" pressive of their appreciation of her un- wearied kindness and assiduity in conâ€" ducting their studies. An Address was read by Miss l’ease, and the presenta- tion was made by Miss Carrie Bredin, to which Mrs. Campbell made an appropriate reply. On Monday evening the ordinary meeting of the Royal Geographical Society, at‘ Bur- lington House, London, was devoted to the reading of the despatches and letters that have been received from Zanzibar concern- ing the reported death of Dr. Livingstone. There were five communications, three con- taining narratives of the murder as related by the Johanna men, and two briefly in- dicating the results of later indecisive in- quiries at Quiloa. 0f three first, two were despatches to the Foreign Office from Dr. 1 Seward, our consul at Zanzibar, and Dr. Kirk, at Zanzibar, formerly Livingstone’s (to-traveller. The third was a private letter from Dr. Kirk to Sir toderiek Murchison. The tnllest and most important of these is Dr.Se_ward's despateh to the Foreign Office. Itis dated December 10, 1866, and the following are extracts :â€"‘ If the Story of some fugitives troin Dr. Livinu‘stone’s party be true, he was slain during,r a sudden and unprovoked encounter with the very Zulus of whom, in the last despatch received from him (dated Nrontana, May 18), he said that thev had laid waste the country round about him. With an escort reduced to twenty by desertion, deaths, and dismissals, he had traversed, as I believe. few-a int-og- nila between the confluence of the Lemnle and Rovutna rivers at Ngomana and the eastern or north eastern shore of Lake Nyassa, had crossed the lake at some point. not yet ascertained, had reached a station named Kampunda, on its western or north- western shore,and was pushingr westward or northwest-ward into dangerous ground,when between Marenqa and Maklisoora a band of imn‘tamble 9a 'aqes stopped the way, a mix- orl herd of Zulus or Halite and Nvassa tolk. ‘ The Nyassa folk were armed with how and arrow. the Zulns with the, traditional shield, hrmrd-bladed spears. and axes.
