English statesmen of the foremost rank have for some years past occasionally inti- mated that British North America might ere long become a separate and distinct nation ; yet when the Confederation act was passed, the Imperial Government, acting under the advice of colonial politicians, simply joined the two Canadas and New Brunswick to- gether, bestowed a limited number of small titles on a few late converts to the scheme and allowed the Provinces themselves to undertake the task of finishing the work, and for thie they have already proved themselves ill adapted The expenditure of considerable & English capital in the construction of lead- ing lines of railway throughout the Provinces had, during the decade previous to confede ration, silenced a all annexationists while the late war, With ite inev- itable accompaniments of dismay, destruc. tioa, death, and debt, had, it was thought by the lawmakers of the realm, completely dis posed of that dread fallacy for an age, if not for all time. Accordingly, they did not stop to inquire what effect the abolition of elavery the laying of an Atlantic cable, the construc tion of a Pacific railway, the withdrawal French soldiers from Mexico, the purchase of the Russian possessions in Awerics by the United States, the revolution ia Spain and the consequent weakening of the thaf binds Cuba to the Spanish throne, or the revellion and discontent in Ireland, and the natural sympathy of the numerous Irieh emigrants in America, would have on the futare prospects of the embryo State, They proceeded to grant a large subsidy for the construction and equipment of an inter- colonial highway, with a view to bind'ng the interests of all the colonies together, butapperently without the faintest idea of the use that might be made of the grant Ot course this grant lias proved a source of weakness and discord, rather than of unity and strength. The selfconstituted Provinces, all or nearly converts to the Confed at the eleventh hour, and even then rat for purposes of delegates from th I] of whom were tion seh e only ersonal aggrandiz than with any regard for the public good, hastened, afte: the act took effeet, to bargain and intrigue for pleces of distinction, without any regard to cit fitness, or fair. ness, but purely with a view to dividing the spoils, Such, in brief, the Listory of the Dominion. Its future, unlees a radical change should speedily ensue, is not difficult to foretell," The Dominion must xpeedily move for independence, actual and unqualified, or its absorption in the United States is as certain as time is to roll on, Serious troubles already exist, not only in the Dominion proper, but also in nearly every outlying portion of British America ; and all that is now needed to kindle the flame of ac. tual, but entirely unnecessary intestine war, isa still further exhibition by present provincial rulers of their combined vanity. dishonesty, incapacity, and audacity. them hold their porttolios for another year, and the work will be complete, Karl GRANVILLE, during his recent discussion of colonial affairs wiih another set of self-con- stituted but dissatisfied delegates, now hang- ing about the Colonial Office in London, apparently thinks matters all well” enough decency, has been the Let ~ | as they now exist; but we imagine, 60 far as British America is concerned, he is lulling a himself to sleep on the very crust of a vol oar cauo, The rank ond file of the British I American people do not like to be ruled by men drunk, not only with bad wine, but also with their own self-coneeit ' s Byron Book.

Now that she pub. lishes her book, whatever consideration may have been entertained for her will be swept away, and she herself be looked upon as mere slanderer, The book in question consists of thirteen chapters, comprising, in the aggrogate, 409 pages, besides an appendix of about 70 pages, Of the thirteen chapters, five, comprising 153 sons which impelled Mrs. Stowe to origk nally take up the subject, and seven more to 4 discussion of the controversies which have followed. The appendix contains @ r@ print of the Atlantic Monthly article and other documents of as little value. One chapter alone, of but thirty-five pages, is devoted to the positive atgumenta to ptove the commission of the alleged crime, and the statement of those arguments is diluted with an abundance of irrelevant matter. ‘This chapter begins as follows: ri There is directevidence that Lord Rrnox guilty of some nnaghal immorality © evidence is not, as the Blackwood says, that ‘ON yielled assent to the ex paris ats aclicnt: nor, us the Quarterty” Intim.t¢ he was aftectod by the charms of an attractive young woman, The fit evidence of ft Is the Mict that Luaniva TON And ROMIELY offered to take the ease iuto court, and wuke there ® public exhibition of Ue proois un which thot convictions were founded, Second =It Ss very strong evidence of this fret, that Lord Byaox, while loudly declaring that he wished to kuow with what he was charged, declined this open investigation, and, rather than incet It, «igued paper which he hid before refused to eign.

Stowe meddled in the matter, The whole book is simply a mans of inferences, all more or less destitute of probability, and all entirely inconclusive. For instance, Mrs. Stowe asserts that Lord Byron must have been guilty of some un- unusual immorality, because he failed to de- mand a judicial investigation of the quarrel between himself and Lady Brnox. But the same argument would prove Lady Byron also guilty, for she, too, failed to demand-a similar investigation when all England was ringing, as Mrs. Stowe shows, with accusa- tions against her of unwifely and cruel con- duct. It is said, too, that Lord Brnon’s bit ter remorse and hatred of his wife proves hia ‘guiltiness. Gulltinces of what? Surely; a libertine, such as ho is said to have been, would y not have felt | any ce- pecial regret or fear for one intrigue more or less, The fact that Mrs. Lrrom was his halfsister would not have troubled him, since it did not, according to Mrs, BrowE, prevent him from seducing her, As to what SITELLFY says, it proves the reverse of guilt Ho calls fhe friendship openly displayed by Lady Bynon for Mra. Luton “a decis tradiction” of the calumny, M effort to explain away this ation of friendship, like her attempt to break the force of Lady Bynox's Iet ters, published in tho Qvarterly Ze vie, is utterly futile, Even if it were occasioned, ns she eays, folly by a desire on Lady Byron's part to screen Mrs, LE! Sunlis eanwate, why aibald ah at be believed in hor subsequent attempt to undo the effect of the artifice? But the proof that there was any artifice in thie apparcut friendship depends entirely upon proving, in the first instance, that there was something to be con- cealed hy it, the presumption being that there was nothing. that Mrs. Srowe ingenious argument on this point falls to the ground ‘There is no necessity for analyzing the re- mainder of this weak and trashy production. It is called “Lady Bynow Vindicated,” but it should rather be called “A Failure to Vindicate Mra, Hannier BeEcamr S10wE.” Without reason or motive, she put in circula- tion the nastiest piece of scandal that has been heard for years, and now, when called upon to prove it, she falls back upon the original fabrication’ of Lady ByRos’s mind weakened by age and distorted by brooding upon her wrongs, if a repetition of this fabrication were triumphant testimony to its intrinsic truth.
