The present Government of lineat Britain does not seem to understand the true position of althirs upon this ‘conâ€" tinent ; if they did we cannot believe that at the present critical juncture we should .0 the country demuled of troops, the Royal Canadian R. e Regiment broken up, ind the Royal Artillery taken away. The liovernment and people of this country have proved, in the most conclusive manner, that they are not disposed to shirk any part of . the > burden of self defence which may rightfully be imposed upon them, that they are ready to do their whole duty, and that at a few hours‘ notice, thousands of wellâ€"armed, wellâ€" equipped Canadian seldiers, can be placed upon the border line, ready not only to proâ€" connection endurm«, as we trust it long may do, the Mother Country cannot ricd herself of all responsibility, but is bound in honour and good faith to assist in defendâ€" ing Canada against foreign aggression.. We are told that the withdrawal of troops from the Dominion is part of a long determined and well delined polcy, not for the abanâ€" donment of the colonies, but for the conâ€" centration of the British forces in the Uniâ€" t«l Kingdom. â€" There may be good reasons for such a step, of which we know nothing, anl, such being the case, the people of Canade would not complain.. At the tim» of the Crimean war and of the Indian mutiny; they not only saw almost all in.widbotphhlm.huhnnm‘ a regiment for Her Majesty‘sa service in any we shoukd no longer be ed by , marauding‘ inc neishbhouring States : I portion of the globe. The position of af fuirs upon this continent has changed sinces then, however; thousands of men utterly demoralized by the civil war, and renmdered unfit for peaceful avocations, are to be found in the «United States ready at all times for any kind of mischiet. Conseâ€" «qwently there is far more danger of |raide upon our territory than there was at the time of the Crimean war, What the people of Canada ask of the Imperial Government is, that they should let the United States authorities know, that they must put a stop to that open plotting against our livesand property which has been carried on during the last five yoears, and that they will be held ahswerable for all bad results which may accrue from a negldct to enforce their own neutrality laws. An act passed by the Congress of the United States, in the year 1818, upuh“ "any person with in the terri of the United States to set on foot or provide the means for uy,-ilhuyuminplnbb carried on from,thence against the terriâ€" tory orâ€"dominion of any foreign province or state, or of any. colony district or people with whom the United States are at peace." The United ‘ States aro at peace with Great Britain and Canada, yet public meetings have been held in all parts of the Republic lor the avowed purpose of "prov.ding the means for a mil.taury expedition‘‘ against this country, and an organization is perâ€" mitted to exist, the avowed ohject of which in, to inflliet loss and in jury upon Great Briâ€" tiin and her dependencies. These are facts which it is impossible to gainsay, ‘and we aubmit that the Canadian people have a rvight to expect that the Imperial Governâ€" ment will demnd of the United States that tlits condition of afthirs shall be tolerated no longer, ‘Tne present Government of tireat Britain are accused of a desire to get vid of the colonies ; certainly they are not just now acting in accordance with the principle laid down by Lord .Pailmerston, who declared that © the remotest colony of the empire was as much entitled to count upon Imperial defence as Kent or Sussex." But whatever their views may be, and however much the present Colonial Mini= \ ter may be disposed to set at naught the | docotrines held by his father, the late Lord (Giranville, it is by the British people that the question will have to© be decided: Constantly engrossed. in commercial purâ€" suits, a large majority of the mhabitunts of : the United Kingdom do not often busy \â€" themselves about Colonial aff«irs, the genâ€" eral feeling ceing that if a colony desires to sececde from tho Empiro, it shall never e compelied to remain, but that so long as this is not the case, the inhabitants of that Colony ntitled to the same rights ani privile uoflpr ml"nn of the Batish Crown. But in spite of their apparent supineness, we still have strong fuith in the people of Great Britain, nor do we believe that they will tumely allow any govern ment which may be disposed to permit tho Empire to crumble to pieces, to do so without a word of remonstrance. In for iner times it was charged against Canada that sha wouldl not assume her share of the respansibility of defence, that she would not go to the expense of organizin« her militia; but this accusation ain no longer be brought against her. We have a gallant little army of well equipped and eMicient men; within the last toen years _we have made saciliices, not only to deâ€" tomdb our frontlee from invasion, but to lve The Ottawa Cimes. ’ | ';‘ ' .' â€"fi"" C o P NPAE e not of th n W ourably MN e notice that in Montreal and To: proimble that public meetings w in a fow days, for the purpose of ol in axpression of opimon on the M NEW ADVERTISEMEATX SATURDAY, JUNE 11, I8® OMasst 34, Oparhses Utreaet.

For some time past Mr. Dickens‘ health had been bad, and had oceasioned his friends considerable anxiety at times. Upon one or two occasions he had had premonitory symptoms of the deâ€" sease, which according to our telegraphic reâ€" ports, has at length carried him of. He was cut down in the midst of his useful ness at a comparatively carly age, ‘ere the light of his genius had paled, or his fame diminished.
