and ultimately all the British possessions in North America, and a consolidation of tneir resources, a combination of tbeir fcergiet, aod a concentration of tbeir action for tbeir common advancement.As e means to ibis end we suppoti the oompie.ino of tbe Railway commoaiceiioa between Canada and tbe Bister Provinces, by tbe construction of tbe loiercoonial Railway.We are ia favour of Provincial Aid in conjunction with assistance from tbe Imperial Government on such a basis aad fo such proportions as may be adveqtagrouf end satisfactory to tbe Provibces and the Mother Country.In tbe Commercial Legislation of tbe country we believe that System ot tariff to be tbe most judicious and beneficial to the proviaee wbicb purposes tt> raise, by tsxntion on imports* only eucb a sum as is requisite to create e revenue sufficient to meet tbe necessary expenditure of tbe province, yet so discriminât-inges to afford incidental encouragement to mao«£scioring industry, where tbia can be done without affecting disedventageoasly other Commercial interests or interfering with tbe purposes of a revenue tariff.Tbe imrodaeiion of accumulated wealth and productive lahonr into Canada we consider vltaliy necessary to tbe improvement and satisfactory progress of the cvuutry We, therefore, advocate a thorough revision of tbe Bmigtuuen Department, and its reorganisation on \u2022 broader and more effective fooling, lo addition to sending agente abroad to make known ths position ot Canada* xnd the facilities it offers' to lie industrious settler, thus isdociog tbe population ef foreign countries to seek our sboree* we should be prepared, when tbe Kmigmut arrives amongst us, to afford bim every information, direcion, and facility for settling bimaeif down at ones la eur midst, nod, for this purpose, we deem It necessary that persoie, trustworthy, active, and wall acquainted with tbe poeirioo^ soli, and other qualities of those tracts of tbs publie lands to wbicb tbe increasing stream of immigration is to be directed, should be employed by the department to take charge of newly arrived bedtes of immigrants, conduct them to tbeir point of det-tinavioa, and, in conjunction with tbe local Ciown Lauds\u2019 Agent, see them properly located, tbe lines and boundaries of their lauds sefined, and nil other necessary is fotwsation and arsitiacce afforded them Tbas the Annoyances, difficulties, and discourage-meats winch neees&arily beset a stranger in his attempt to settle down iuto a country straagw and new, would be softened or removed, and the eomfortable seulement of the emigrant la his new home rendered compatatively easy, expeditious, end satisfactory, in view of the diversion of emigration by the intealina troubles of tbe neighbouring States, the opportunity which it offers to Canada to transfer aud \u2018 retain it to berselt, nud tbe vast importance of this question to the beet Interests of the Country, we think it woald be advisable to erect tbe Emigration De-Department into a distinct bureau, with a QummUaioner of Emigration and the ueoes-sary effleial maebioery to render il effective* aad Adequate to tbe leqntremeuta ot the conn-try .The necessities of tbe province have outgrows the present tuncntnery.As a funhor important auxiliary in developing and settling the waste lanes of tbe province, we approve of the system of ohlobixation roads irom tbe leading pointe of tbe cultivated districts into and through the unsettled portions ot tbe public lands, wbeieby tboaa new tracts are rendered accessible and tbe settlers enabled 10 communicate with the older settle meo is aud obtain remunerative markets for tbe eaiplos products of tlreir industry.In inL tiaisog this System we think the Government of Canada have acted wisely and well.Tbe expenditure for Urn purpose we conceive to be money well applied, cud any action of the Government or legislature directed to an ax-tension ot ibU sjetem shall have oar cordial support.A ttecral system of colonisation roads we consider as aa indispenrible adjunct to Emigrant agencies, and tbe other machinery Of a comptai* system of Emigration Every other movement, whether of indivi-d« Is or a*socia>ions, tbe Government or tbe Leg! ) lato re, which is calculated te develop toe renoucoee, improve the condition., and ad> vance the prosperity of tbe coun\u2019.ry shall have oar cordial oo-operaüon, and whatever may t?bd to remove local and traditional distinctions, destroy prejudices arising f/om national origin, do away with sectional jealousies, and tinder the iobabitante of Canada a bomo-g*neous and dntted people, shell secure oar most strenuous advocacy and support.Tbe commercial and jaartt'.me news will eeotioue to form a leading feature'of the Morning dronicle, aod the utmost nttention will hs given to this department or tbe paper.Tho importe aod exports by River, Rail, and ea will be carefully collected ;

over tbe signature of the City Clerk, respecting Her Majesty's birth-day.In consequence of the expression of Her Majesty\u2019s wishes that the usual celebration should not lake place, this year His Worship the Mayor brought the subject under the notice of the City Council, ou the 9th instant, and a resolution was then adopted expressing concurrence in our Gracious Sov ereign\u2019s wishes, which will be found in oar report of tbe proceedings published in our columns next morning.la consequence of this proceeding, the Mayor cannot, of course, issue a formal proclamation calling for the observance of a pablie holiday on that day The notice above alluded to announces, however, that the Corporation offices will be closed ; and it is well understood that the citizens generally, will follow this example by suspending business, as a mark of respectful sympathy and regard.k The Providsnce Nunnery\u2014Mysterious Malady.\u2014Yesterday a large number of our citizens were thrown into serious alarm by the report that over thirty ladies ot the Providence Nun ncry had been poisoned.It appears that on Tuesday morning last, a strange malady manifested itself among the inmates of the Nunnery in question, and since that time no fewer than thirty-eight of the sisterhood were afflicted in succession.The cause was attributed to the use of green tea, but the Professors of the Ca nadian School of Medicine decided, after an analysis, that the tea contained nothing deleterious.In short, the cause of tbe malady is unknown.The symptoms were precisely those that accompany poisoning, namely, dilation of the eyes, pains in the abdomen, vomiting, et.\u2019.We are glad to state, on tbe authority of the Superioress, that the ladies stricken down so mysteriously, are now considered out of dan gar.\u2014Montreal Witness, llth.body, and encamped for the night.Every thing predicates that the Confederates intend to defend Richmond with all the available force they can bring

State The war could be successfully carried on and maintained on Virginia soil for 20 vears.The Confederate General Jno.B.Floyd, has been appointed Major-General of the Virginia forces, with authority to raise a force of 20,000 men, as a new conscript for the defence of Western Virginia.The engagement on Thursday, at Drury's Cliff, seven miles below Richmond, between our gunboats and the enemy\u2019a batteries on James\u2019 River, bad produced a great panic among the people of Richmond.They acknowledge a loss of six killed and seven wounded.8t.Louis, May 20th.\u2014A mass convention of the friends of the administration, and those favorable to the emancipation of the slaves of Missouri, under the plan submitted to Congress by the President, is called to meet at Jefferson City, June 16th, to nominate State officers.The World's correspondence states, under date of Baltimore Cross Roads, Va., 26 miles from Richmond, May 18th.\t''I make a pro- phecy that Richmond is abandoned by tbe enemy without a fight, and that we occupy it within 48 hours if not all signs fail.This is th* advanced division toward Richmond ; these fisheries.It is well known in Nora Scotia that this mode of fishing has very materially injured the fisheries ; nay, in some localities, it has not practically, but wholly destroyed them.So alive U the American government to the vast importance of this matter that, the perplexities in which the civil war has involved the nation nothwithstanding, a Bill tor thc Joint Commission for the preservation of the jitlantic Fisheries was reported to tbe U.S.Senate, and adopted, authorising the President to appoint a commissioner to meet such commissioners as Great Britain and France might appoint, to form a joint commission, to frame measures to protect these fisheries.We are mistaken, or, in the selection of gentleman on this commission, one directly representing this province is not named.This question of the Fisheries is not altogether an Imperial question.It is substantially a Colonial question.With respect to France it is wholly an Imperial question.She has no colonial interest, properly so termed, in the waters of North America, in these latitudes.She holds only one or two barren, rocky islets, 8t.Pierre and Miquelon, upon which, during certain seasons, her fishermen may gather, as gulls, in their season, and destroy all the fish they may, and by every mode they can.Our fellow colonists in Newfoundland long since complained of this, and laid their complaint at the foot of the Throne,\u2014 where, if our memory serves us, it yet remains.The Imperial Governmc-t would not \u201crun the risk of fresh complications,\u201d (i.e.) in order to protect Colonial interests.Of course not.And so the Cod-fislery on tbe southern and western coasts of Newfoundland is all but destroyed by the \u201cbultow.\u201d Are we to fancy that France wifl willingly assent to any measures having for their object the checking of this system?Decidedly not.She has no very immediate interest in so doing.Neither has Great Britain, but the British North American Maritime Colonies have, and so have the northeastern sections of the United Slates ; and it well behoves the Government of either and all of them collectively to look well and in season to proceadings of this \u201cjoint commission.\u201d had founded their action on base libels, published by enemies in English periodicals, in which, with a little truth, there was a great amount of falsehood.He said that the malignity of ihe English press was enhanced by the

at various points, and her equal in any respect it would be difficult to find.\u2014 Constructed of the best of live oak, and heavily timbered ; she is classed higher than any other craft at present
