L. I. Holton. The writes points out the absurdi(, of the Indepen dence notion, and toll« the advocates of separation from the ifother country that « they have wholly misjudged the depth of © British feeling and the strength of the " attachment to the British name which â€" pervacde the whole country." We are happy to hear that the United Stites naval authorities upon the North Atlantic station, are acting in thorough nogord with tho cfficers commanding our lishery guard boats, and have shown a‘very friemily spirit. _ There is no truth in the story of the American Government having sont a large naval force to guard the fish cries ; there is only one United State= vessel there, and that we belioveâ€"is a small muldle wheel steamer. A Anyone who has glanced at the New York Heraid wi hin the last few days, will agree with us in thinking that the Canaâ€" dian corresponent of that paper ought to be liberally dealt with by Mr. Bennett As a thorough going, unblushing perver tor of the truth, he is probably unequalled even upon the staff of the Heraid, and this is mying a great: deal, : Why does not Bennett promote him to some more ex altel aphorea of usefulness, why not re move at once to thg groat talsehood mnafi:. eatablishment in Ann street Now York* ~There, among kindred apirâ€" its, he woulq be thoroughly at home. tape we u\vl: have fiw :mo two or three C on sont / Cl :|::’:m.u of W“Mfl:yfiz ness. _ It is tiuime we gave some of our wealth and generouty, To a Canaâ€" chiam En.l:n.d must have of late in a somewhs + contributing paupers by m“m.l‘m" lypd." There is a considerable amount of truth in this, Canada has received a gool many specimens of English poverty and wreteh edness within the last few years, and it is vory gratifying to know that a large proâ€" portion of. those Englishmen wao came out here paupers, are new earning a com fortable living and are likely to become valuable additions to our population. At the same time the English people should remember, and more especially English Â¥migration Societies should bear in mind, the mere het of landing a man upon shores does not of necesaity ensure his ture prosperity and advancement. There ale some men so thoroughly wedded to idleness, so to speak, so habituated to an aimless purposeless mode of life, that send him where you will he will nover learn those habits of industry and thrift which are necessary to success eve: ywhere. And even where this is not the case the nature of a man‘s former cccupation and pursuits must be borne in mind. A half sturved pauper from the cast end of Lonmndon is not likely to be well suited for agricultural life, either in Canada or on the Westorn praivies. Some of them, inâ€" dood, may possess a sufficient amount of energy of purpose to triumph over all« difâ€" Houltics, and by sheer force of character attiin sucee«s, but in many instances the reverse is certain to be the case. The worat of it is that those‘ immigrants who wore the worat off in England and are the loast likely to succeed here, are the very ones who are most difficult to satisfy. A contemporary, the Peterboro‘ Ezxaminer, mentions that one man who arrived last wook refused to work for $1.50 poer day, alâ€" though in Engliand he probably could not have earned much more in the course of a week. Anothor refused to work for a clergyman of the Episcopalian | persuasion, having formed a determination to receive employment from no one but a Wesleyan minister. _ It is men like these who help to bring Canalian emigration into disrepute ;. they are low! in their complaints of the treatment they have received ; all they mmy against Canads and Canadians is cagerly taken hold of by the ‘American emigration agonts and otherâ€"enemics of this country, and so the reputation of Canada suffers in consw«mence of theso mens‘ Llleness and worthlessnose, dihe Ottawa Ciomes. The last words which Dickens used in ublic were rather significant. _ At his rewell reading given about four months nce. he bade adieu to the awlience in the will probably enable them to obtain a more speedy success, We report what we have often said before, that any man wil ling and able to work may look forward with greater certainty to making for himâ€" self a c mfortable home in the Dominion, thin in any other country in the world.

The question of Canadiin eqngration is one of the most important which could possmibly occupy the attention ot British statesmen just now. _ Nome of them would doubtless be inclined to ridi cule such an assertion, and to regard it as a great pioce of ex iggeration. . But if they will only look a little beyond toâ€"day, if they will but boar in mint that from the surplus population of Great Britain which is leaving her shores every day, great and powerQul communitiess will arise in future yours, and that it very much depends unan the action of the Importal Govern he has in his pt We hawve allusd wo foeel that it i lacts patent to every one but o men o their peculiar political bias, they w.ll as «ort that the Amsricans are "a kindred people ;" that they love and revere the mother land, and that the munts and petty insults which they are constantly hurling in the face of England are but so many evidences of their athe tion for their * dear old nursing mother But those who have had better opportuâ€" ties of forming an opinion on the subject know that this is not the case ; that it is not the Dutch and lrish Fenalan« only, ut a very large proportion of native born Americans, who regiurd Groat Britain with feelings df mingled jealousy and aversion. And it must be confessed also, painful though the fast miy be, that ~there is no «mss of American citizens so thoroughly the enemies ofall thingsBritish,or so ontire ly saturated with Yankes prejudices and alien«s and possilly enetuiés, the | question will assume a diferent aspoct. Shall the thousan i+ W English mon, Seotchmen and Irishmen who leive the United RKingdom for this continent wvory year tremain British in ideas amel «ympathy, or shall they become Ameriâ€" cins * This is the question which has to be solved.

It is in tact a matter which comes chiefly within the range of Imperial policy. Exulting in her presoent security, in the inâ€" vincibility of her ironâ€"clud fHeet, and her well ngh exhaustless riches, the men who are at the head of affuirs in England toâ€" day may think that they can treat the mat tor with indifference. But if they do so they will most assuredly . commit a fital blunder. If by their supinencss they continue to permit the _ growth of communities hostile to Great Britain and to British constitutional freedom, the time will come when they, or those who come after them, will havo terrible reason to regret their migtake. But if, on the contrary, by encouraging emigration to Canada, by turning the ti le of emigration in this directon, they help to build up and strengthen this Dominion, generations of Englishmen, yet unborn, will have good cause to be grateful for the wise and states manlike policy, which aided to establish upâ€" on this western continent, a nation of Brit. ons still clinging aftectionately to the momâ€" ory of the old land, and ready to stand by> her in sunshine and in shade. A few days since we alluded to the \ struggle now going on in the United States betwen capital and labor, and to the en gagement by a Mussachusetts boot and | «hoo manulacturer of sixty or seventy | Chinese to supply the place of the men | who stmuck" becaus> their unreasonsble demancds had not been granted by their omâ€" . ployer. This action on the part of Mre. Sampson (the manuficturer in question) seeme to have created quite a sensation throughout the State. The Chiness show great aptitude for the work, and have already become expert workmen. Thare are plenty of their compatriote in Caliâ€" fornia reuly and eager to follow them, and the various Trades Union‘s through out â€" New York and the â€" New England States are beginning to enmpuire with some diamay what is to be the end of this movement, and to foaur that the ty ranny which they have exercised over the ‘.'hy-lhu.on-npthflucd. KFor it is not only the manutacture of boots and shoes that the=Chinese are eapable of learning, but other kinde of mechanival ind ustry as well. They can work at lower wages than a white man, for they e-ltnvhnnh*h--wnA-w-‘ lcan would starve. ‘They do not require whiakey, beer or tobacco; meat, with &omdommu.ml‘ puppy dog now and then, is seldom inâ€" dulged in ; give a Chinaman a fTew ounces of rice to eat, and occasionally the opperâ€" tunity of sperfing an hour or two in an opium vlivan, and he is perfectly com tent,. Of course the Arst remedy which naturally suggested "itself to the Trades‘ Unions of Massachusetts was violence. Accordingly an unfortunate Colestial was seizad upon one evening as he was going home from work, and his tail cut of and thrown into the river, be being informed !“thon-od-olhlil hbe persisted in working at Mr. Bumpson‘s fuctory his head would soon follow his tail. Wildly | exnsperated at the loss of his caretully | pluital ebon tresses, the Chinaman ap plied to the police for protection.

At the time of his incurceration he was in delirium tremens, and he remained under its influâ€" ence all along, until it resulted in his death this morning. Dr. Sweetland, gaol physician, attended him throughout, and on Friday evening sent him a doze of mediâ€" cine, which the turnkey said had a good effect. * M At nine o‘clock on Friday evening the turnkeys, Nile and McKewn, made the customary .::ifhtly visit to the cells of the prisoners, they both considered from the quiet :Pmant of Flint, that he was in no critical condition. The‘; gave him the medicine ordered by the doctor. He took it willingly and layed down on his bed. This morning, about five o‘clock, turnkey Nile went up as usual to open the doors of the cells that the prisoners might come out and cleain themselves. Flint was lyâ€" on the floor trembling. HMo did not take Kmicultr notice of him, lu‘pposing that e had simply thrown himself down in one of the fits, the effect of delirium tremens. About half an hour afterwards one of the prisoners came down and informed the turnkey that Flint was dead, which, on imâ€" mediate examination, . was found true. Flint was lying on his allâ€"fours in about the same position in which he had been ?roviodsly seen by ihe turnkey «Nile, and rom the warmth of his body it was evidâ€" ent that death was v%ry recent At9:30a.m. a jury was im ed, and an inqnest he'r(‘i.
