Break-up in the Cabinet-—Resignation of Rolph and Cameron — Place-Hunting Rogues — Balance of Power—Canadian Socialists-- Dissolution of Par- liament—Halifax Railroad—Crops, Se. My predictions have been fulfilled. Malcolm Cameron and Dr. Rolph, the clear grit members of the administration, have signified their unwilling- ness to continue to hold their respective offices. Various reasons have been assigned, which are not worth mentioning here—the true secret being, of course, tke incompatibility of the clear grit and ministerial platforms. Malcolm Cameron’s resig- excited no surprise ; but Dr. Rolph’s (which is not yet officially announced,) has fallen like a thundor- bolt on the people; and no one has yet ventured to speculate freely on the probable name and political color of his successor. His office, the crown lands, is ono of the most important beiths in the cabinet, and will require a man of great industry and some taleat to fill it. Malcom Cameron's was cure, and will probably be evffered to remain vacant. Thus, threa of the most important offices—for the Solisitor Genoral- ship, which has been recently offered to Cartier, and, a8 [ told you would be, declined by him, is still vacant—are going a begging. It looks very like a general break-up. Hincks is gone to Oxford, to try to conciliate his constituents ; and John Young, who would have been sure of the support of all parties, had he offered limsolt on independent ticket, may possibly, as Commiszioner of Public Works, lose his election for Montrea So much for the whales of the p ical ocean.

But Mr. Cauchon ord meny of his friends go farther, and refuse to give thelr support to any administration which dees not contain exactly as many French Caaadi- | an ec English names.

The immigrants from Scotland are also about equally divided between the national and secession churches; and, as is usually the case with their countrymen, eppreciate education; among whom originated, in Nova Scotia, the first movement in favor of popular rights and self-government, upon which the coxstitution of that province and Cana- da bas been tubscquently hosed New Brunswick was settled, after it ceased a part of Nova Scotia, by refugees from the U. States. at the conclusion of the revolutionary war; and while in the Jatter province they carried with them the Massachusetts laws, bey adopted the English code, which prevailed in New York; the effect of which is still appezent—the former being superior in intelligence and education to the other, possessing @ more intimate acquaintance with their rights as British subjects, and consequently aa abi- lity to maintain them. The result ts, that while in ada and Nova Scotia responsible government isin full blast, New Brunswick may be considered as in a trensition state--tho Governor for the time | beirg Ce | appointments without consulting his resporsible advisers, and even in opposition to their wishes and views.
