The loan the Imperial Government is about to contract, will be the sixth since 1854..

As an exhibition of small Provincial impertin ence, we qpresume the refusal to republish the Goverxoaâ€"Gexgriar‘s proclamation will be allowed to pass, because the matter to which it relates is of comparatively small importance. _ But as the proclamation itselt was merely of an advisory character we should have imagined that respect for the source whence it emanatedâ€"â€"the represen tative of Royalty in this Dominionâ€"would have saved it from studied insult. ° of the experiment." . When the late Parso® Coxsont said that .®* the system of constitdâ€" 5* tional Government was on its trial," he was justly accredited with having uttered words of wisdom, and newspaper writers descanted learnedly and lengthily on the profound im port of the saying. _ But, in sober truth, all forms of Goverument are "on tmal."

Though but on« NEW ADVERTISEMENTS. WEDNESDAY, JULY 1, 1868. short year has passed since the Quzex‘s proâ€" clamation superceded the old Union between Upper and Low»r Canada, and made of the four Provinc«s one Dowminion, and though many difécuities from within, and some from wirhaut, have arisen to mar the progress of â€"ne country towards complete consolidation and the harmonious working of the complet machinery of Local and Generat Governâ€" ments, enough has already been done to show that if the people are but willing our new Constitution can be made a complete success ; that it combines the sulidity and security otf Constitutional Government, with the largest measure of indulgeace towards the popular feeling of the hourâ€"which is compatible with stabshty mnd rational progress. And, fortuâ€" Markets see Fourth Page under existing cir nately for Canada, it does not appear to be affected by the desire for change which is so prevalent in many other countries at the present day. Â¥, * It is not pleasant to think that there is still one recalcitcant Province within the Union ; one, the Local Government of which, up to this tine, has refused to submit any measure to the Legislatare, lest its fulfilling its obâ€" vioug duties might be held as an acknowâ€" ledgment of the validity of the new Constiâ€" tution. But we sull trust| that the # Nova | Scotia dilficulty " will be smoothâ€" ed _ over : with " time ; _ and _ as the Legi-htunfol that Province again meets‘ on the ‘6th of August, it may then be found, either that Ministers are prepared honeatly w discharge the duties pertaining to their station, ior to give place to other men who will. The action of the Imperial Governâ€" ment anil Parliament has made it plain beâ€" yood a doubt that it is the‘duty of every man in these :mvinon, who is loyal to the British Crown, to render willing obedience to the laws under i:hich we live, and among these the chief, because the warrant and muthority for «o many others, is the © British North 4@ America Act of 1867." It is the proclamation of the going into effect. of that Act which the people otf the Dominion have been called upon to celebrate toâ€"Jay ; and though we do not anticipate any very extraordinary displays, we have no doubt but that throughout nearly the whole of the Domimon, the day will be duly observed as one of general rejricing over the: many blessings which the country enjoys vader the benignant rule of our Gracious Quzex, the enlightened policy of her Home Advisers and the confidence of her Imperial Parliament in vestiog as with the functions of selfâ€"Governâ€" ment ; not forgetting the statesmunship of her Canadian Privy Council, to which, so far, we owe the success that the Cana lian Union has within one short year achieved. Tas Quebec Chronicle ‘doubts the ‘ability «t the quthorities to carry out the new reguâ€" lations regarding pauper immigrants pasâ€" sing through Canada. There is much lorce in our contemporary‘s remarks, but «t the game time it must be remembered that the forwarding ot these immigrants through this conatry at the public expense has hereâ€" 1 tofore been a glaring imposition, and it was surely time that a beginning should be miwde to abate it. While we kope that no unnecessary hardships may be inâ€" Aicted in carrying. out the new regulations, we certainly think that those who, without authority, have persuaded thess poor people that they could get their passages paid by ‘the Cauadian Government, ought to be made responsible‘ for the consequences of their wAdeception. The Chronicle says : * We ‘do not believe the n‘uhuou which we have republished trom the Canada Gazeffe, respecting the landing of needy or pauper nmmimm can be carried out according to vheir t this year. They appear to have veen hustily and inconsiderately drawn up, w meet an emergency for which the Governâ€" ment could ‘not readily find or devise any au:rk I provision ; and their amendment l“ qu yur\uibh appears to us high requisite, e shall state a few ol the dlé‘:\l{: es and objections in the way of these regu aâ€" tions. _ In the first place, they have not been preâ€"announsed for the guidante of the shipâ€" masters engaged in the emigrant trade, who will have left European ports with the same class of passengers as they have carried out uere in former years, trusting to Canadian Tmty to ~forward the iw‘rm to their estimation. _ Of course we admit, foreign omignu bound for the States, by way of the Lawrence, have no right to expect tree conveyance through Canada; but rightly or wromy, this favor has been extended to them, and hucdreds, perhaps thousands, h.vina Northern Europe this year, for the Republic, have counted upon it accordingly. Jur ity in this respect nas been, doubtâ€" less, ed to a foolish extreme in the case of many needy emigrants, while it has been by parties provisiql with sufficient money to pay their way themselves. Had the determination of the Canadian Government to stop this assistance to the pauper emiâ€" graats been made known in the countries whence they come, before the opening of uvaion, the regulations in question could have been enforced with better reason" than at present. Since we have allowed the curâ€" reat of pauper emigration to set in towards this country, on its mb another, we shall find it not an easy to arrest it at this stage. Our Government probably thinks the refusal to allow the destitute to touch ’our shores will have the effect of mduc.i:‘f the United States authorities to forw ut immediately and make for the port of 3,000 miles distant, or the nearâ€" est United States port, one thousand miles away, with four or five hundred half starved aboard ?. Do the authorities imâ€" ine that some hundreds df people, sick of the ies of the middle passage, would meek!ly obey an order to turn their backs on that them to the Rcï¬lblie at its exg'nn; other ise; what could be meant by ordering a skipper, all whose provisions, let us say, were exhausted on reaching Quebec, to put that they had longed for weeks to reach ? MWhat would be the condition ot these people on a backward voyage, in « filthy ship, withâ€" out suffiient tood, discontent and fearful of the future? If sickness and imutiny could be Lro.lmod by suck treatment, who would not expect it ? We beheve the people, driven to distress, would force a landing, if able, in apite of the authorities, or wonli manage to evage the law by coming ashore at night, or h not under their ken. But there is angther class who would suffer from the strict execution of these regulationsâ€"namely, the relatives or friends of settlers in Canada, expecting to be supplied with the meaus of su and travel # their dr%i'nu.'mu on reaghingQuebec. Many poor and respectâ€" persons leave home with little or nothâ€" ing in their pockets, aiter p.’&lg their on the understunding of being met by friends here, or supplied with money, on toughing shore. Toend guch persons back would be a blunder and a hardship of the st kind. _ These peop‘e sometimes have to wait a few days in Quebec or Monâ€" treal tor invelligence from theit friends, who, etimes, are disappointed mal.heir esigna t | meet them promptly, ~ Shipâ€"captain« ing home, without ever dreariing of havyâ€" ing to comply with suche regulations, would be| greatly harrassed by the ol-h‘a‘t:ion to VF .

Their mother told them to dessist lest they should fall in. ‘They did so, but almost immediately aiter, in company with anotker loy named Thomas Sbields, they went to & rock on the river‘s bank, out of their mother‘s: sight, and began to play on it, Simuel slipped from the rock into the river, Thomas, a fine manly little f«llow, sprang in to save him. The water where he fell in was eight feet deep and the current was strong, and they were carried away by it. Mrs. Riddell, alarmed by the splash, cams to the place, just in time, to se 'her boys carried away, without her having the power to save them, Such is the power, however, of natural affection, that she actually sprang in after them aad but for the servant girl she might have mt with the same m lâ€" ancholy fate.

Thomas‘ body, for which the river was dragged all she night, was not found tiil next next moining at sunrise. ‘Their bodies were found nin=ty yards from where they fell in., The deepest sympathy is felt by the whole community for Mr. and Mrs. Riddell.
