Does not this contrast suffice to show under a new eee the excellence and strength of the position which the Western Powers have assumed? The Czar has been caught in his own snare. Let us then persevere; and, independently of the military glory which we ought to be eager to pursue, after having been so long deprived of it, perseverance alone will insure to us considerable advantages over the com- mon enemy.

It has been long entrusted to the contrrol of a Russian commercial company, on pay- ment of an annual tribute. Tais company was ori- giv ally confined to Irkutsk, and obtained their ex- chisive privileges of trading in peltries in the Aleu- tian Islands and adjacent coasts, from the Emperor Paul. This was subeeqnently extended by Alexan- der to the whole of Russian America, and renewed by the preseet Czar about five yearsago. There are no settlements on the main land, only a few of the Istands being occupied. The fortreas | of Sitka, at the entrance of the harbor, is said tobe provided with considerable works.
