The steamship Arabia, from Liverpool Oil-the 26th of July and Queenstown on the 27th, was boarded off Cape Race at four o’clock p.m., on Sunday last, an Tonto to Halifax and Boston.

The question of putting Canada in a state of defence had been debated in the House of Commons. It was generally contended that there was no danger to be apprehended from the United States. Lord Palmerston said that England ha sent all the troops to Canada that she could, and that it rested with the Cana- Richmond Hill Poshomee Mail (lions to supply whatever else was requi- sit'e. ‘ It ‘5 denial] that Ganbaml contemplates Maris to and from Richmond.

A general risnig may be anticipated in all the border States occupied by tho Fede- rals-.3. The Northerncrs, who are no fools, are receiving the conviction that the Con- federates can never be subjugated. war is to go on, the immense levy ordered by the President must be actually made; but the men will not volunteer 5 volunteer- ing is making too slow progress for that. The New York correspondent of the Times declares that in elevon days only 15,000 men had come forward, in Spite of the enormous bounty. Up to the very latest, society has become resigned to the wasting away of the army with compara- tive tranquility ; the foreigners and rowdics are now all but exhausted, and the North will find the army cannot be replaced by money. Each Northerner must come for- ward in his own person, and fight in the swamps and forests, or the scheme ofcun- quest must be abandoned. If the scheme of enlistment fails, all is over in a few months. The independence of the South must be acknowledged. The Confede- rates are well aware of the Northern dif- ficulties. . The Times also has a special dcspatch, stating that McClellan was to be super- seded by Halleck. The Army and Navy Gazette is of the opinion that McClellan is now in a better position for oflensivc operations against Richmond than ever. In the House of Commons on the 24th, the bill making provisions by means of rates, iii order to meet the distress in the manufacturing districts, was further de- bated and read a second time. In the Lords, on the 2511i, the hill pro- viding for continuing fortification works was debated and read a second time. In the Commons the same evening, Sir De Lacy Evans did not think there was any immediate danger of an invasion of Canada by the Northern States. They had no means whatever of undertaking stich a project. If the population of Ca- nada was true, it could preserve its inde- pendence without the assistance of British troops. Mr. Rocbuck said we ought to show the Canadian peOpIc that we do not care a .singlc fartliing about their adherence to England. Sir Cornwall Lewis said that nothing at present seemed more unliker than that the United States should voluntary origi- nate war with England. Lord Palmerston regretted that a strong feeling upon a local question in Canada, had resulted in the refusal of the Cana- dians to make provision for their defence in case of invasion. At the same. time he did. not agree with Mr. Disraeli that the result was produced by the steps which the Government took last year to reinforce the regular troops in the colony. Looking at the state of North America at that time, the despatch of the additional troops was simply an act of precaution, and but stimâ€" ulated Canada to do something for herself. England has now Sent all the troops to Ca~ nada; and it rests with the Canadians to make all other provision requisite to pro» tect the colony from invasion. The subject was then dropped. The London ZVcws says that it will be an unfortunate thii‘ig if England adds Ca‘ nada as well as the rest of North Ame- rica to the list of her enemies.

IN the cessation from political ex- citement, it is occasionally useful and refreshing to recur to thosa great national topics, which with- out being political, are often of greater importance than all the questions that arouse party or fac- tional raucour and opposition.â€"â€" Among these subjects none has higher claims than that of Immi- gration. When the United States had achieved their independence, their population was little more than that of the Canadas at the present time,â€"~aud although the successful issue of the revolution- ury war gave them amoral power and a national dignity, yet their greatest influence has arisen from their numerical grandeur. Thirty millions of peopleâ€" intelligent, united, industrious and wealthy, are always sure to claim more re- spect froth the nations and poten- tates of the world than five mil- lions; aud the United States have grown into this magnificent humeâ€" rical dimension by the aid of immi- gration, not by the natural process Ofuatlonal growth. But immigra- lion in this age is attended Willi other advantages. It is not the in- flux of a barbaric people, bent or. conquest, rapine and slaughter, and sweeping away before their de- structive steps the vestiges of a higher civilization. It brings with it peaceful, loyal and industrious subjects for the new state. The emigrant who quits his native land may be discontented, but generally his discontent is just and reason- ableâ€"din it is discontent with poverty or with oppression. ‘But he is not an uncultivated savage,â€" Hc has been disciplined by lawâ€"â€" and the arts of civilizod lifeâ€"and lho often brings to his adopted coun- try the best fruits of a great and advanced civilization-all its sciâ€" once and ingenuity and skill, toge- ther with that pecuniary wealth which is so much needed in her settlements and colonies. These have been the sources of the rapid ladvaucomeut of the United States {since the. establishment of their in pdopeudcuce. ‘vVltl‘iout this imml- gration they would never haw: reached their present gigantic sta- ture. Their forests might still have the savageâ€"their rich mines undis- coveredâ€"their splendid cities un- bullt. No doubt many great evils lhave sprung out of this rapid in- crease of the populationâ€"~drawn often from sources the most incon- geiiious, and formed of elements so varied and often so antagonistic.»- But while many of the evils exp-eâ€" rieiiccd have been the result of a form of government which trusts too much to the conscience of men, 'aud is too weak to find the oppos- ing elements in former unity, the fact that all have prosperth and the country has advanced in na- tional power and greatness is in- disputable, and is the motive for .us to act in The same direction. For we have similar advantages to induce a similar iiiih’iigration.-~ We possess noble forestsâ€"«rich minesâ€"~21 fertile soil, and every other natural element which wards an industiious population with wealth and temporal happi- ness ;:-and it is certain that all we "Want for store rapid progress is an . ,_ ,‘ j. _ I bray oi. pounds. 1 increased been the unconquered domain of gratioh will repay us a hundred fold for all our exertions.

We want a larger agricultural population to make the land yield up her fruits, and feed the manufacturing and city population. Thus alone will. our. country advance in power and fit herself to take her place amongst the nations of the world. That in. creased population would not only enrich the country, but secure for it that respect and influence which numbers always command. Its external relations would be those' which give confidence and selfâ€" fidence in our powers and self-re- spect, rise safely from foreign ag- gression and the highest internal chclopiiient. The present time opens up pecu- liar Opportunities for advancing this work of immigration. The troubles in the States, and the pro- bability that those troubles are very far from their termination, and the absolute certainty that our neigh- bors are incurring treiiichdous hu- aucial responsibilities which must inflict heavy taxation upon these, and cripple their energies. are not only open facts in our favor, but ought to be pressed by 0111‘ Gulf vcrhmcnt. our Agents, and our peo- ple in all their external relations and influences. These troubles are also loading to great distress in the manufacturing disn‘icts 01 Great Britain and b‘ranccâ€"â€"drstress which must react on all commer- cial and industrial operations, and cause capital and skill to be di- rected to any other outlets that may offer themselves. In addition to all this, the industrial exhibition will direct the eyes we do not he- sitate to sayâ€"~01 millions to the re- sources and prospects of these co- lonies, and awaken her interest in them as fields of emigration. We think it most important that all these considerations should be pressed upon our government We have a rich, vast and noble terri- tory. We have just and liberal in- siitutions, which secure the fullest freedom, civil and religious, to the people v» with restraints strong enough to keep down lawlessness.

The match with the ‘ Maple Leaf’ was played on VVed- nesday, and was declared in their favor by 13 runs on the list innings, the 2nd innings not being played out. A splendid dinner was served up by mine host of the ‘Fountain,’ at the expense ol the Maple LeafCliib.> After the tables were cleared of the eatables, Wines, Ste. Were brought on, and the health and prosperity of the respective clubs drank with truly cricket enthusiasm. The health or our worthy President, Mr. Boultbee, was also drank, coupled with it a dcsu'e that he may soon recover his wonted health. The second day’s match, which was with our friends of the ‘ St. Lawrence" Club, was the most Interesting one of the two, from the fact (not. because We won it) that there was more excrlement. which was occasiorred by the turn affairs look towards the close; but lshall have to give you the particulars, in order that you may understai‘id it, and I shall be as brief as possible. The captain of the Aurora Eleven won the toss. and sent his oppo hosts to the field, \Vhen the last wicket fell on the Aurora sidefthe ‘ 'I'clegraph ’ showed a total of 76, towards which Jupp contributed 19, and Holliday 21. The ‘ St. Lawrence ’ then handled the willow, and as you will see by the score, to a purpose, making a total of 93; to- wards which Messrs. Stroud and Asher contributed respectively 33 and 13 by verygood play. A good meal was then partaken 01, furnished by Mr. {Seels on behalf of the ‘ St. Lawrence ’ CIub.â€"-â€" After the dinner was over, the usual toasts drank upon such Occasions were drank and respondrd lo, and the game resumed by Aurora taking the bat. This time, how- ever, they were not so fortunate, and the bowling of Messrs. Stroud and Asher so good, that no less than '7 wickets Wei-e bowledâ€"the total was 59 when the last wicket fell; thus leaving only 113 for «he ‘St. Lawrence’ to get. to win. and for which they went in with a deterlilination to accomplish very easily ; and the fLst 3 did their share toward it, but at this stage of the game the Aurora boys got warmed up to their work, and by some very good fielding, in which they made six catches and ran one man out, succeeded in (how log; the game out in their favor by 1 run. The scorer of the i Lawrence ’ came to the hotel where we were stnyng afâ€" ter the thatch, to compute the scorer pn- pers, saying he had made it out a tie â€"â€" ()ne of our players had walked on to Yorkville 'to See some friends, and had taken our score with him, consequently we were not able to do so; but he will see by the annexod score that the result, as publicly stated, was correct, viz.-~â€"a victory for Aurora by I. run.

The troops left camp about dark the night before last, arrivuig at Malvern Hill about four o'clock yesterday, A.M.â€"-a dis tance‘ of 10 miles. Here they encoun- tered two regiments oi infantry and a bat- tery posted behi .d earthworks. Fire was immediately opened an them by' Captain Benson‘s battery and a section of Capt. Robinson’s. The infantry was not en. gaged. The firing lasted about three hours, when the rebels ingloriously fled by the River Road to Richmond, nobly pur- sued by our troops, who succeeded in tak- ing 100 of them prisoners. The loss on our side :it this point was 3 killed and 11 wounded.‘ Capt. Benson had his thiin broken by a piece ofn shell. The doctors think the leg can be saved. Lieut. Col. Gamble. of the Bill Illinois Cavalry, was seriously wounded in the breast while driv- ing in the cucu'iy'k pickets. Col. Avurell With 500 (ziivalry took the Quaker Road to \\'hltc Oak Swamp Bridge. There they found the 1011i Virginia Cavalry drawn up to receive them. A. charge was immediately ordered, which broke the rebel lines, when they fled. Col. Avercll followed them 3 miles, taking 28 prisonerE without losing a man. (-ir-n.

It was months ago believed that through rebel sources in \Vashington, the enemy was in constant receipt. of important kuoivledge, not gencially known; only a few Govern- ment officials whose patriotism is above suspicion, can now receive ilifoi‘innt‘ion,tlle improper disclosure of which would prove detrimental to the best interests of the country~ Gen. Burnside, it is believed, has reach- ed his new field of operations, and may soon, by an act of his own, announce his cxact locality. There is no authority for emphatically denying the truth of the statement, that Secretary Seward 113311111116 l‘tTmOHSIl‘ullCfiB against the presence, in the Gulf of Mex- ico, of a powerful fleet, nor has any other such action as represented been taken in the premises. The preliminary report of the census will be printed and ready for distribution in about a Week. Speaking of the kidnapping case, the Hamilton Spectator says :â€"-On Friday night a party of about forty Went up to the Florence Hotel, with the intention of ‘clearing out’ Fred. Egencr, the person in question. They found, limvever, that the bird had left for the West, Egener having heard of the intenbcd. visit, and left for the States in the afternoon. A fire occurred in Guelph on Sunday, destroying the stables of the Crown Hotel. ARREST or Desmnruamrâ€"Ffidbfiefl time past it .hasbeen suspected “thatithié: steamer ‘ City of MadiSon,’. plying between this port and Oswego, has been .used to. aid in the escape of deserters from the" 301h Regiment quartered here. On Tues- day night;- two men were misSed‘, and ‘yesv' tel-day morning two more. it was found, ~ had gone ; the latter since the reveille at?) o’clock A.M. Believing they were on board the ‘ Madison,’ information was laid against that vessel-by one of the Garrison detec- tives, and Sergeant McPherson was direct- ‘ ed to take the matter in hand. In com- pany with several constables he proceed- ed to the ‘ MadisOn,’ which was lying at the Queen’s Wharf, and informed the cap- tain thereof that he intended to search her for deserters.i No objection was’made, and the constable soon suceeded in finding, amidst coils of rope and tarpauling, two sol- diers named McMichael and Powell. They Were at once sent off to the guard house ; and it being believpd that the other two were not far off, the, picketwas or-r dered down to prevent any escape from the wharves. Further search, however, proved fruitless. I‘owell, when arrested, had upon him a civilian’s coat; his red coat was found lying near the place where he had hidden himself. McMichaeI had taken his coat off, but had not. found a sub- stitute for it. He had answered at reveillc in the morning, and had afterwards left with another priVate, who is still missing. The search haying been finished, the po- lice arrested the following named officers of the vessel: Victor Myers, master, an American; William Innes, 2nd mate, a Canadian; Simon Muirhead, engineer, a Canadian ; John Adams, steward, .an American; and James O‘Malley, watch- man. The three first were sent to the city gaol, and the two last mentioned to the cells of the Police Court. ‘The Madi- son, we believe, is owned chiefly by Mr. 1“. W. Cumberland and Mr. Grant. of the Northern Railway. She had nearly completed Va cargo of-wheat, corn and hams, and would have started for Uswego at mid-day, had she not been delayedâ€"- Some very extravagant stories were fly- ing about the city relative to the affair.â€"-â€"- Globe. On Thursday a man who embezzled from his employer in New York the sum of $2.000 in gold, arrived in Montreal, followed by the owner of the money, who could not have the man arrested as the of- fence does not come within the provisions of the Ashburton Treaty. The runaway is therefore enjoying himself without fear of punishment. - ' ::’:j;:. :VLTT: " :7h17"':H:â€"::.D TU It N TO M A RKETS. THURSDAY, August '7, 1862.
