the carrying trade of the two pouting and sullen beau ties canada would of course enjoy a ahareof tlie benefits though the consequent rive of freights might mfiowly affect the exportation of the bulky comin idities of the country- nonmtercourse how- ever would not tend to bring down the st law rence anv considerable portion of the western trade for hardly any part oftltfl provisions which form the staple articles of that trade is exported to france the consequences of a weraic far more complex in the first place britain if one experience may reason from would soon be in the thick of it nd the circumstances that would lead her into it are neither few nor secret to illustrate this position we must remind the reader thai the war would be chiefly a naval one and that america would direct her first and most powerful efforts to deprive france of all shelter for her navy she would therefore attack guadaloupe martinique in the west ijdies and st pierre and miqnelon on the coast of new foundland would not her success rouse to a war like pitch the jealousy of britain for in the posi tions mentioned america being so near her resour ces would be a far more dangerous neighbour than france nor would france be less likely to provoke the jealousy of britain in another quarter the ame ricans have unfortunately a permission to fish it die very gulf of the st lawrence and were a single french frigate to pursue her prey into that guit would not the maritime honor of england be tarnish ed 1 but there is still a third circumstance that must almost inevitably drag britain into any maritime war we allude to the tight of search which bri tain has always fiercely maintained and which forms the ground work of the present differences be tween france and america britain would soon find the exercise of this against herself as iutolera- le as other nations have always found it the system of blockade would also tend to the same point the law of blockade or rather its

about 3 oclock on friday morning when an adjournment for a few hours took place when the jury again asscru- bled and continued the examniation throughout the entire day when a second adjournment took place to 8 oclock this morning this case appears to be one of the most mysierious and up to the present is involved inclouds and darkness and a respectable juryman yesterday pointedly observed there h

bank in upper canada to which we yesterday alluded is on the whole favourable to the formation of the projected institution it recommendsa main bank and districtbranches with separate capitals the stock in each establish ment to be held by the province and by individuals in the ratio of three to one the main bank is to have a capital of 500000 so that the state will hold 375000 and individ uals 135000 in the provinces share of the cap ital however are to be included the public deposits to the estimated amount of 25000 fair play is a jewel and the province ought to have only the same advantages as private individuals if depos its are to bear interest let chose of all depositors bear it but nothing can be more unjust than that provincial deposits payable on demand shall not only bear interest exclusively but hal receive an indefinite per centage of dividends and bonuses vuktf jnillli ijili llottljeclj i i iimutulol the districtbranches wilh a capital of 100- 000 each are to be gradually established the who capital therefore will amount to 1600000 and private individvals 400000 the management diwded between the pro vince and the private stockholders in the ratio of the stock ihe province would appoint threefourths of the directors but the committee report assigns to it only two thirds of the whole or ten out of fifteen if these ten all emanated from the same source the private stockholders would become a political en gine but to protect the interests of individuals and to shield the public libercy they are to be divided between the governor the legislative council anjl the assembly his excellency is to appoint one the council three and the popular branch six this division as well between the diffident branches of the legislature is dangerous and unjust the committees report by adopting qjie ratio of stock and another of management leaves the dis tribution between the first to parties open to dis cussion and wc cannot but think that the private stockholders are entitled to such a number of direc tors as when backed by any one of the three pub lic delegations may outvote the other two it must be remembered that the delegation of the assembly would be virtually elected by the people voting not in proportion to numbers and might emanate from individuals having not i proportion to numbers and might thus emanate from individuals having lit tle or no stake in the bank wfl would give tlie private stockholders si directors and the three branches of the legislature nine as to thedistribution of these nine there is little room for doubt the constitutional act recognizes the three branches as coordinate and equal bodies and in the appointment of directors as in all other matters tjwy have coordinate and equal rights each of them therefore should appoint three direc tors it seems necesary to provide that the assembly shall not nominate any of its own membersas direc tors for an unprincipled man might commence busi ness as a demagogue in ordemo make the floor of the assembly a stepping stone into the snug re cessed of a bankparlour and anj a bankchest thte private stockholders also would require as security a solemn guarantee that the

do not hesitate to say that of all the wars practicable or possible for france the most foolish the most gauche the mostiinpolnic that which would cause the loudest laughter at st petersburg berlin
