Hence, wo were more than willing to submit the question of Union or Disunion to a free and fair vote, after full discussion, of the Southern People. 1t may suit The Times, in its character of flea on the body politic, to carp at this; but why does it neverattempt to show, either that our Revolutionary fathers were wrong, or that we have misapprebended and misapplied their doctrine? ‘Why can it never be shamed out of Lush-fighting into open, manly war- fare? 1t is false that we ever demanded *“peace upon the attainable terms,” whether in au **abject " or other manner; though we did once propose to gorate the war by calling out the Militia and em- ploying to the utmost every resourco of the loyal States, with the understandivg that, if we should thus be able to make no headway, we should, after a fair trial of our strength, see if we were as incapable of making peace as of making wag.

What should be the infer- ence? Simply this: that Rebels and desperadocs, whose namos were by-words in Now-Orleans; sworn champions of disloyalty, whose acquicscence in o forced gituation is hardly a year old; rulers of New- Orleans when it was the most profligate, violent and rofractory city in the world; men of the class whose led on by notorions of the vindictive counsels have encouraged the outrage and killing of white and black Uniouists in every county of Louisi- pua; thatthese men and their confederates in author- ity were the righteous upholders of the law, and the preservers of tho peace ' 'Who is fool enough to be- lieve it ?

Woare told that the men of the Convention began the rioting. We know the assertion to be absolutely false. It is said that,at the meeting held before the Couvention, every speaker indulged in inoendiary language; but, on referring to the reports we found that the most suspicious terms employed were but a reply to daily threats, and such an appeal to tho defemse of civil rights as has been often heard with no bad resultz. We are told that the Unionists, Dostie, Henderson, and the Rev. Mr, Horton, were either lunatica or men of no standing, albeit, they died firm in their faith of freedom to the last. Does the lunacy of the victi Justify mnedor? Or are loyal lanatics ‘ conviet Rebels ?

Congress and the glaughtered Unionists were, after all, the conspirators, and the Rebels and the negro-haters were for onco loyalists? What is Should we admit that Gen. Sheridan was correct in saying that tho leaders of tho Convention were political agitators and revolutionary men, and onght to have been arrested, we have still his own word for it that their cruel butchery was without ex- cuse, and that tho prime-mover of all the horible work, was “*a bad man.” Nothing more is wanted to sot at reat all judgment as to the nature of the riot it- oIf; but The Times of this city, and The Intelligencer of n—both intimately related to the Goveru- uue the absurd and infamous work of ring the dead.

He may find that his own power in the premises to convene and legitima- tize the late i ent States, without the concur- rence of Congress, was more than amooted question. We hope he will understand that his blunder in tumbling down & State of his own recognition, along with tho Governor elected by its people, was, after all, tho worst offence which he could commit against his own theory of government.

Meanwhile, Upper Canada is to have but one Legislative Chamber, phrely elective. That however palpable the necessity for it, is calculated, and likely, to foment augry feelings between the two sections of the commn! and to provoke mischiev- ons collisions, there can be but little doubt; but how bow to meet the case otherwise than by the plan proposed does not yet appear. There are also dificulties of o financial char- acter in the way of Confederation, involving material and important changes in the €wriff, aud a readjust- ment of the burdens of taxation.

We cannot but think, however, that the roal reason for the unex- pected resignation of Mr. Galt lies deeper than in the duality proposed in the case of Lower Canada, ! disgorging would begin. From post-offices and from custom-houses, from naval stations and from the cabing of jolly pursers, {rom the wigwams of Indisn agents and from the counting-houses of con- tractors, from those still in place and from those who long ago retired in state of repletion, the current of cash would begin to flow, as the doctored consciences began to prick. In this happy, jolly time of restitution, yon would no longer hoar sour-visaged follows protesting against conscience in pablic affairs; for even they would see the beauty of the article and the propricty and the profit of enltivating it with fhe greatest care. The taxes would be diminished; the Bureau would be the { most popular department of the Goverament; and many an nndetected appropriation wonld rise up sad call it blessed. These snggestious are based vpon the opinion that there is some money out and owing to this Govern- ment which, without extraordinary measures, it is not likely to get in.

It may yet tran- spire that the Confederation schome had o great deal to do with his relinguishment of office at this parti- cular juncturo, But supposo the difficulties to which we have al- luded all successfally overcome, and Confederation an accomplished fact—what then? There are those in the United States who look with something like ap- prebension on the proposed nion of the British Prov- inces on this continent, as as a measure adverse to the interests of this Republic, seeing that if effected it will lead to the establishment of & ** new nationality” under & monarchical form of government in North America. For our part,we do not share in this feeling. Our republican institutions have nothing to fear from the near neighborhood of royalty, They have Leen tested in every way and the evidence of their intrinsic virtue, and of their vitality and power, is before the world. They commend themselves to the people by their adaptability to popular wants; and while they continue faithfully to fulfill their noble ends, not all the pomp and glitter of courts will be able to. alienate from them the people's affections, As to the agnexation of the British Prov- inces to the United States, Confederation will not stand in the way of that, The nationality principle is rather favorable than otherwise to the ultimate fusion of the British provincials with the American people, and when the time arrives for the borders of the Republic to be enlarged northward, the difference in the form of government betweeu ourselves and our neighbors will be easily got over. It may be that that time is not so distant as the promoters of Confed- eration imagine, The worll gravitates toward Re- publicanism, e CONSCIENCE MONEY.

Let us take hope at last from Dostie’s-grave, Monroe's crime and the President’s blunder. CANADA AND CONFEDERATION. Tho movement for the Confederation of the North Amerlcan British Provinces lags somewhat. The time lost through the recent change of Ministry in the mothor country will necessitate, it is said, the postponement of Tmperial legislation on the subject till the next session of Parliament. That legislation is indispensable to give effect to the scheme; but as the question is mnot one of party, no difficulty is approheuded from this quar- ter in the perfecting of the arrangement for binding the Proviuces together according to the plan proposed. The project, however, as is well known, is far from meeting with the unanimous approval of the Provinces themselves. The Canadians are on the whole favorable to it, from motives of self-interest. Prince Edward's Island and Newfoundlaud bave fallen in with it, for they have nothing to lose, and may gain something, from the contemplated union. But both in New-Brunswick and Nova Scotia, the proposal has encountered the most determined opposition; and although the anti-Confederation- ists have been beaten in tho Provincial Legislatures, they show no disposition to relax their efforts for preventing if possible the consummation of the scheme, Parliament is to be petitioned on the subject, and delegates have been appointed to proceed to England without delay, for the purpose of properly ropresonting to the British Government and people the views of those colonists who are opposed to Con. federation. In Canada itself it has been discovered that there are obatacles iu the way of such an early aud satis: nt of the qu n as Was at one time or Canada 1d to be a diflic o of ty in its popu fo } with practical inclosures ! 3 | There is something cnrious about it; buf we have never yet heard of a goverament which men calling | themselves moral, certainly rospectable, did not think | it perigetly fair to fle The busiuess began in the > and everyiwhere has been steadily going ¢ since—~under monarchies, republics, per- manent governments, aud provisional, before, du- | ring ond after revolutions. Men differ in their other political theories, but they all agree that Goverument is a sort of mileh cow, and that he who can get the largest chance at the public teat is | the cleverest fellow, Shoddyism is as old as Greece; the Roman provincial governors, Sallust for example, ail stole like Jack Sheppards; the satraps of th Turkish Ewpire to this day are all thieves to a man; the greediness and rapacity of the French nobles left Louis XV, without a sou in his pocket; in Englaud, the public debt would be diminished by half if restitu- tion could be made of all the public money stolen since the aceession of the House of Hanover; in Rus- sin, all the Government oficers steal as if thieving were commanded by the tencts of the Greek Church; and the United States is the only country under the sun in which nobody ever takes a cent of the public cash which does not belong to him! Happy land ! But lest we might, by chance, fall into these per- niciows aud expensive practices, we beg leave to sug- gest the establishment of a Bureau of Conscience at Washington, to be officered by a retired clergyman aud six serious clerks, Its building might be con- structed in the form of a church, with a very high steeple and a very loud bell. The business of this Bureau should be two-fold: the distribution gratuit. ously of little tracts mildly inculeating the doctiine thet it is @ sin to steal & pin as much as any bigger thing;" and, secondly, the care and management of the restored fands which would possibly Legin to come in as the tracts began to operate.
