A4 t «3 A movement is on foot to establish in London an "Imperial Museum ffor India and the colonies.‘" Her Majesty‘s Govâ€" ernment have been memorialized by varâ€" ial} Chambers of Commerce in favour of the project, and it is incontemplation to localize the museum on what is known as the old Fife House site on the Victoria embankment, London. The project is one in which every colony and dependâ€" ency of the Empire has a deep interest, as it would afford the opportunity tor exhibâ€" iting samples or specimens of the natural resources of each country. London, it hould be remembered, is the centre of @nterprises of every conceivable descripâ€" io: the focus of realized capital, where immense aggregate capital is always awaitâ€" ing investment in any undertakings that promise returns. â€" The projected Museum would bring under the view of these capitalists the resources of the Colonies, and would be the means of establishing eloser and more more intimate relations between those who are in want of capital and those who have it to lend or invest. We may give an illustration by supposing that a valuable mineral deposit was disâ€" covered in this or any other part of Canâ€" ads; specimens of the mineral could be forwarded to the Museum with the neces mry descriptive account. . These would ittract the attention of those seeking outâ€" tien which Canadians have justly laid claim to for this country, Mr. Speaker Axeux comes down flatâ€"footed, and in his irritable and peevrish way talks abou; " parvenus‘ and " disgust." while now the police and other parties may be vigilant in looking after "drunks ;" or second, the number of persons who have been inebriated under the workine of the Act may actually have inâ€" ereased, some for the fun of the thing and others to show their contempt for a law that is designed to make men sober. Whatever may have been the cause or causes for the "apparently inâ€" creased consumption of intoxicants, the alleged fact will be taken as proof that the Act fails to accomplish the benevolent purposes of its promoters, and its vigourâ€" ous opponents will thereby take encourâ€" agement. But we are inclined to think that the Act has not yet had a fair trial, and that longer experience of its working might show more gratifying results. If persistent efforts are made to thwart the Act by those opposed to it, its friends should.. firmiy, courageously, but courie» ously stand by it, and iusist upon a fair vious to its adoption. The fact is, perâ€" haps, susceptible of two explanations : first, before the Act was adopted there may have been a general indifference to the prosecution and commitment of perâ€" sons who violated the laws of sobriety, Mr. Speaker Axoury is rather irritable conmcerning the relations of Canada with the British Empire. Somebody had conâ€" ceded or contended, at a Colonial meeting held in London, that Canada "is the foreâ€" most British Calony,". whereupon Mr. Speaker in hbis journal, The Freeman, reâ€" marks that "nonsense of this kind has become quite disgusting," and declares that "Canada is not a parvenu, and she does not wish for such vapid admissions.‘ Now why should this truly great mar down by the sea so fret his soul, and become disgusted at seeing the true posiâ€" tion of Canada recognized and its import ance candidly acknowledged? Heretoâ€" fore it has been matter of general comâ€" plaint that Canada was not sufficiently wellâ€"uuderstood by the people of England, that her resources were not appreciated at their true value, and that she was ignored and neglected. There was a natural and loyal yearning for more symâ€" patbhy and recognition.

It is ntrtflonied ,{um. this was done, n factit is fully adâ€" | mitted by the Republicans, but they justify the proceedings on the ground that in the parishes whose votes had belon thus mutilated, there had beea intimidation of the most violent nature of negro Republiâ€" cans. The allegation has been repeatedly | denied ; an‘i it has been shewn by refer , enge to actual returns that where disturbâ€" lwces did exist during the election, a large Republican vote ud invarigbly been ‘polled. When the Returning Board was in session, a woman was produced who told a story of violence and inâ€" timidation _ tbhat sent a thrill of horror through ‘the country. | But on crossâ€"examination, it was discovered that the poor creature‘s husband, who had been killed, was a Democrat, and that the scrimmage in which he lost his life, was the consequence of previous encounters between himself and a fellow negro, the whole of which arose from personal quar rels. _ The child of the woman, which she alleged had been butchered in her arms, by two men striking‘it with axos was, it is said, afterwards found on the borders of a lake, and that it bore no appearances ot the violent treatment she had described. The whole story, in its most hortrifying asâ€" pects, had evidently been con¢octed to produce & certain effect abroad, and to draw attention away from the outrageous proceedings of the Returning Board.; The Congressional.Committee is| invested with the powers of a Court, and in its inâ€" \vestigstion can put all evidence to the most thorough tests. Thus early in the investigation instances of the| grossest tampering with the ballot returus have ’been disclosed. One of ,the parties ‘ entrusted with returns was) brought. to confess that he had made up. his papers in the Customs House at New i i Orleans, whereas the law required that he . shou‘!d have made them up in the parish in which the polls had been deliyered, and {he ‘had previously sworn that he had complied with the law. This idisclosure plainly shows that the Federal oficau‘ had taken a band in manipulating the records, and that the manipulation bad been in the interests of a political party. At a later stage of the proceedings colourâ€" ed gentiemen appeared before the Comâ€" mittee, and disclosed that they were subjected to violence and intimidation . during the election, on account of. their ‘ desire to yote the Democratic ticket. We will not anticipate the further proceedâ€" | ings, but we shall be surprised if it is not shown ‘that the greatert violence was shown to those negroes who desired to vote for Uncle Tirpes. The meeting was a most El’lnomou is one, and the various mdo'lq.n tions were carried unanimously, not a dissenting vote being cast.

We have reason to believe tuat the spot chosen is a vacant space abutting upon Whitehall Place, and in the immediate vicinity of the whole of the Government offices, the clubs, Charing Cross, and the Houses of Parliament. No more central or con:â€" spicuous site could have been pitched upon ; and while we have no information as to whether the ‘Eurohuo money has been promised by the Imperial Governâ€" ment, or is to be raised by mbocn:lsfion in England, we think we are justified in sayâ€" ing that it is not intended to ask India or the colonies to contribute uyfl:m to wards that object. What we be invited to do will be to furnish the means of erecting a building which shall be worthy of one of the finest sites in Europe, and at the same time representative of the magnitude and opulence of the colonial dominions of Her Majesty. It is proposed to found two structuresâ€"one tor India and the other for the colonies. The former will contain the Indian products, manufactures, and antiquities ‘now ar ranged in the old bition galleries at South Kensington, ther .with the books, manuscripts and publications in the Indian library, and wle be connected with the Royal Asiatic Society, for whose meetings rooms will be provided in the building. The Colonial &m'fllbo placed in juxtaposition with this, and the t z0 will form an Imperial Museum, which will ccnstitute a picture in little of the whole of the British possessions ; each colony having a separate section, so that its industries, its natural resources, its in Wiknbiab it tNixin disies lt 4 ts im rffiinhcentad ced tibe+ 2l jA arts, and its material progress, may form a distinct ‘subject of study and investigaâ€" tion ; while it is also proposed to concenâ€" trate the business of the colonies under one toof, by placing in the museum the offices of the various Crown agents and egents general. _ A Aut'gnm received from London last week @pprised our readers that the Thames Embankment had been selected Again we have. to record a considerable increase in the weekly shipments from the United: States.

The market, as already mentioned this week, bas been advanced, and all over the world the excitement of the past few days bas been unparalleled in 11 years,. The London Oil Refining Comâ€" pany have advanced the price for home consumption to 35 cents. Deducting the duty, this still leaves it considerably beâ€" hind New York quotations. Crude reâ€" mains very firw. The American market has advanced from 266 to 350 in the past week,swhilst the upward tendency in Europe has been very violent. Antwerp touched 88 francs ene day, and London 21 4d per gallon. The refined article is scarce, and the prospects for good sound genuine oil business for 1877 have never bni?bettler., to h t3 ! Afregular panic appears ave set in fr "spot ‘ oil, both crude and refined, a; New York. Owing to the scarcity in Europe, prices bave been kiting up, and in London, England, have doubgod since August, while at Antwerp the rise has bean almost fabalous. Spot oil, be it understood, is oil on "the spot," that is ieady for immediate shipment. â€" The carrying capacity of crude from the wells of Pernsylvania is stretched to its utmest limit, and still is unable to keep up with the demand. As to the immediate future, say for the next thirty days, high prices will cerlainly be the rule, and after Janua y taey may be expected to relax. But the fact is undoubted that the supply of the ervde article in Pennsylvania is quite 4,0C0 barrels per day under the reâ€" quairements of the world, and while this stite o. things continue, we may look forâ€" ward to a‘stiffening msrkes. Jur latest advices from Liverpool, men tion that over 20,000 barrels of Canadian refined bave a.rived in London, andSat outports for the metropolis, but that not a barrelhas arrived in either Liverpool or Glasgow. They state that now considerâ€" able in erest is manifested in the article in Live ‘pool owing to the more favourable reports of the qualiâ€"y from London, and that the former city will no longer show such an indifference to Canadian consignâ€" ments as it has hitherto manifested.

The total stock of crude oil at Petrolia is estimated at 140,000 barrels, and this is fast being depleied by the demand for export. . The production of crude is estiâ€" mated at about 7,000 barrels per week. Since our last report ro new strikes have been made of any magnitude, the rule baving been either sme‘l wells or "dry holes." Last week the largest shipment of distilled ever made from Petrolia was shipped to London and other piaces. In the week ending the 19th (gct.ober last . the shipments amounted to 3,090 barrels, but the export for the week ending 7th December last, footed up to 3,665 barrels, this eclipsing the greatest totality . éver known by nearly 600 barrels;! â€" Statistics of the Trade.

The most ignorant are beginning to perâ€" ceive that a diminished import trade necessarily implies a correspondingly diminished export trade ; and that it is as irrational to expect that a young counâ€" try can make rapid progress without a steady influx ofadult population,as to supâ€" osethat a growing boy can attain to a Eultuy maturity without an abandance of healthy food. The very protectionists are growing ashamed of their folly, ani are advocating a revision of the tanff. And mnder these circumstances we have no reason to doabt that the Parliament‘ and people of Victoria, when they are applied to for their contribution towards the building fund of the Colonial Museam on the Thames Embankment, will resflo..d with a liberality commensurate with the wealth of the country and with the itmportance of the object ; and that the whole of the Australian colonies will be most anxious that the structure should assvme the character and proporâ€" tions of an archiiestural monument, worthy of the maqnificence of the site, and of <the mogritude of the Empire which it is d« stined to represent. That site will be of enormous value, and whether provided by the Government of Great Britain or by public subscription, will constitate in itself a truly Imperial gift? It shoald be acknowledged and re ciprocrated in an [mperial spirit. For, as Dr. Forbes Watson, the director of th Imperial Museum, has well observed in his pamphlets on this subject :â€"" The re lation is mutua!, and the benefitis mutual. There is no class of instivutions which wou‘d better reflect all the beneficial inâ€" fl:ences of this mutual relation than a great Imperial museum, giving a picture of the resources of the whole of the Engâ€" lish possessions, of India on the one hâ€"nd, and of the colonies on the other.
