It seems, however, that, as in all great. questions of constitutional change, in the multitude of council there is not always wisdom. It has never been our opinion that the voice of mass meetings, national elections or any popular device for the purâ€" pose of effecting a grand Constitutional revoâ€" Intion is the proper tribunal to which so vi «l an issue should be entrusted. To disbelieve in the wisdom of majorities may be unegthoâ€" dox in a democratic age; but we have yet to learn that there are more wise men than fools in the world, or more Statesmen in a crowd than can be selected from amongst the higher intelligences of ariy and every count In almoet all the occurrences v.lmeinn?pulu furore most unsafe as a guide in national policy. But, while we depreciate reliance, in such matters, upon the popular passions of the hour, we are free to admit that the sober sense of an intelligent ‘people is not long in righting itself upon grave and important questions. â€" The sober second thought may indeed be of slow growth, but, assureilly, come it will.to rectify or to regret the folly of the public enthusiagm. Ourfellow Colonists of Newfoundland offer us an illustration of these remarks. Less than a year ago they were decidedly opposed to Confederation, and now we find them in the van of all the British Provinces in placing their official stamp upon the bond of Provincial Union. A new Legis. lature has recently met, and has received the Lieut. Governor‘s speech, in which the followâ€" ing passage upon Confederation occurs :â€" * The proposed Union of the British Proâ€" vinces in North, America continues to engage the anxious solicitude and friendly interest of Her Majesty‘s Government. . Despatches from the Secretary of State upon this subject will be laid before you. Believing, as I do, that the abstract advantages of union, upon general principles, must be so obvious as to be almost necessarily nkm:xguk it would ‘ appear that any question which may be raised can only affect the terms upon whitch it may ‘ be possible, equitably to accomplish such a union as would‘be desirabe. I am satisfied that Her Majesty‘s Imperial Government, as well as the Governments of the other Provinâ€" ges, will receive and consider with courteous attention any proposals that you may think fit to offer on this subject. That the compleâ€" tion of the Union between the other Provinces is certain, and will only be a matter of time and arrangement, most thoughtful persons are conyinced. It may become an affair of vital consequence to this community not to fall into an isolated position in the final set. tlement, ‘which cannot fail to exercise the greatest influence on the future of all the British possessions, in North America." _ In the discussion upon the Address, nothing was more remarkable than the altered tone of several of the speakers. We take a topious extract from the speech of the Hon. E. White, as shewing the reasons why a change of senâ€" timent is rapidly taking place amongst the more patriotic and better thinking of . the public men of the Island. In the course of his remarks, Mr. White said : He was in doubt whether be or the Council ought to give any expression of opinion at this junction upon the question of Confederation ; for he regarded it a a matter that more properâ€" ly came within the legislative faculty of the members of the representative. branch of our Parliament, the men who are immediately ac countable to the constituencies of the country fortheir opinions as well 3s acts. It hay been introduced, however, by hon. gentlemen, and its discussion became the privilege, if not duty of everp individual member of the houseâ€"and as such he should make some n.-m‘:supou it. It might surprise how. gentlemen to hear that he (Mr. W.‘s) views upon }hu important proposition of union had undergone a Conâ€" siderable modification since it was discussed in this Chamber some twelve months ago. He then déclared his conviction that ‘union with the other provinces was calculated to confer no advantage on Newfoundland, beâ€" cause he believed that whatever benefit was anticipated from its accomplishment was for the good of the Canadians, and not: for us. Uhdnigm be permitted to use a nautical expression to explain his views he would state that he bad been sailing hndlrr an anticonfedâ€" erate course tor the past year, but failed to reach a haven of safety,â€"nothing arrested his vision on every hand but the s and quickâ€" sands of destruction. There/was no hope for the country in its pFesent circumstances. . It could not be urged against him that he was one of those whoare said to ‘t what they can from the country, necdldss of its welfare beyond that anxiety that guarded their own interests, to spend it in foreign lands, It could not be said that he had only one pasâ€" sing interest in its welfare.

Pauperism is increasing every . sugceeding year. The financial condition. of the counâ€" try presents a prospect toalarm the most sanâ€" guine believers in the i@herent vitality of our resources. . Our revenue is far ghort of the pubâ€"= lic requirements ; ourgencral business, despite the temporary snmccers of last season, is dwindling away; and | it has _ become a â€" selfâ€"evident demonstration that _ fish and oil alone will support ts no longer, |Where, are the signs of advancement in any branch of our trade ? \th}r arenew resources being opened up to giyé : :. ployment to our statving people? There are noue; and the productive power of the country, the ableâ€"bodied men who hitherto sustained its trade, must etmigrate or perish. We had, he firmly believed, large mineral resources ; but of what yalue are they to us, urldeveloped as they are,â€"no capital in the country to work them, and none coming to it. If we look back to the short period of twenty years ago, and com pareâ€"the condition of .our trade at that time with: its condition toâ€" day, what a sad reflection the retrospect sugâ€" gests! â€" We ‘had ‘then a firet of 400 saliing vessels, manned by 12,000 of our handy popuâ€" lation. (This year we l;pnf only about 150 vessels, and a corresponding dimunition in the number of men, â€" Think wha®h falling off this cireumstance has n('(':‘ivlu‘d in the‘emâ€" ployment of our people,â€"hnot the fishermen alone, but : the tradesman and the mechanic and the shopâ€"keeperâ€"all of whom were inter= ested, and all of whom benefitted to some very considerable extent, and now suffer in proporâ€" tion to the dimunition, â€" Conmsider the loss to our revenue accruing from the nonâ€"im portation of manufactured goods necegsary for the supply of these men and the fleet they manned, in the way of chains, anchors, and other necessary dutiable articles. | What other conclusion can any reflecting man arrive/at than that this state of things can‘t go on} and the country expect to flourish, _ It may (be chargedagainst him that he was guilty of inconsistency in now departing fromy the positionche had taken upon the question of Confaderation last year, but he‘feared not to disavow his allegiance to opinions thd maturer reflection and further experience have shown hint to be: untendble ; conscious that it was mord creditable at any time to make repentance than blindly persist in a course of error and|impropricty, _ He was not singular in his @altered views, and though:the masses of the people: were, as he conscious that it was mord creditable at any time to make repentance than blindly persist in a course of error and|impropricty, _ He was not singular in his @altered views, and though:the masses of the people: were, as he believed, still opposed confederation, it was, he was ¢onvinced, bedause they were yet unschooled ypon the true gatire and chatacter of the. principle inâ€" rélation to their own circumstances and interests. Very few of us do know what advantige would result to the colony from entering the ynion ; but it should be on better terms than thise proposed: in the Quebec Report, and h¢ no i«loubt more favourable terms would b¢ granted to us, A good deal of the argument! urged againgt Conâ€" federation last year still held good anil parâ€" ticularly as tegarded the ynbencficial characâ€" toer, though we should be} taxed for it, of the intercolonial railroad and 1 system, so far as related to us ; but could we secure a grant for intercolonial Steam ¢ommunication and: other necessary matters, new life and energy would be infused into th¢ country, and t{gut disadvantage would be e good to us. The value of our gepgraphi position to the other provinces, in the evxdnt of confederation strengthened our claims to good bargain with them and to gecure more favorable concessions. Newfourtdland was in fact) the key of the: proâ€" posed confedbracy. and adtantageous situation cither forâ€"defensive or ssive purposes, conld not be overlooked by the other prop vinces in the formation| of the union, and therefore if favourable tetms can be secured so as to make the propositJon just and acceptaâ€" ble to us, he would bec a Confederate toâ€" motrow." After certainc remark Pinsent, Mr. Bennett, Hogsett, and others, the to the following effect :| The speech has been[t- : ing nothing but Con .fi ted that it contained a ig Tederation. | He did no from the dpinions held twelve months ago and them. _ What is contai an expression of »Imperia which the Governor wou though every man aro to Confederation, and commit the members of Mr. Hogsettâ€"Then t say that these are his ow nions of the Imperial Go his Ministers.

Mr. Shea) sup , without hesitation, his previously expressed|views on Confederaâ€" tion ; and did not seek to back out of them. He felt sorry that the member for Harbor Main, Mr.. Hoggsett, Id have receded from his opinions on‘ th¢ same subject. (Mr. Hoggsettâ€"I deny it. Who told you that 1 did ?) He (hon. Mr. She-;hd Jht forward his opinion, and stated fairly and opdnly what he thought about Confederation. |His people .might have sent whom they c in his stead. â€" He went to the people. He called mectings and explained his views. His constituency knew perfectly well what hewas doing and what his views were. He had never spoken more strongly in the H of Assembly than he had to: his constitudnts.. They had fully endorsed his views, sent| him back to the Asâ€" sembly with the largest yote ever given in the district. He would not take a seat upon conâ€" dition of eating his own words. These were his opinions ; but he did not wish to see them carried against the sense of the country! It was idle to suppose they could be carried without a majority ; he did not jwish that majority. to be other t a decided one. The opinion of country on the question of Confederation|was changing, and his own disâ€" trict afforded an illustration of the fact. When he weng there he found of the snb{efi prevail succeeded in removing fied the people, as the 1 spowed. â€" * None of the advocateg of the measure have flinched, they have all |come back refreshed. Hon. gentlemen at the dther side did not tell the constituents the fair story of Conâ€" federation, They told| them of the widows‘ sous to be taken away for goldiers, and of their bones bleaching on C soil. But that game is played out. T silly idle, stories, fit only for nursery tales, toâ€"sendchildren to aleep, are now believed by no one. . « On Miflpomnt qhestion of Confederaâ€" tion, in recognizing the solicitude of Her Maâ€" jesty‘s Government for the welfare of this coâ€" lony, we concur in the iew of Your Exéellenâ€" «y, that the abstract ad s of Union are «o obvious as to be almost necessarily acknowâ€" ledg=d, whilst, with regurd :::xh colony, and on the details of so grave & ure, it is natuâ€" ral that much diversity of opinion should preâ€" vail.

Patrick will be Saturday of next weekâ€"and on that day, it is alleged, the Fenian raid will probably be made on our frontier. It is stated that members of the Fenian Society are to cross over from Detroit, Buffalo, Ogdensburgh and other points on the lines on Thursday and Friday nextâ€"that they are to join in procesâ€" sions, got up by the Irish socicties, through the streets of our principal cities and towns on St. Patrick‘s dayâ€"and do what they can to disturb the peace and distract the attention ‘of the authorities while the inroad on our border is being made. Now, we are well persuaded that this plotâ€"if such a plot there be at once exploded. â€" The respectable, orderâ€"loving porâ€" tion of our Roman Catholic fellowâ€"citizens will not hesitate to use their influence to prévent any procession taking place in any part of Canada on 8t. Patrick‘s Dayâ€"and we doubt not â€" they will succeed, _ Whatever yiews persons . may entertain as to grievances in Irelandâ€"there is no pretext that , in Canada the Roman Catholics have been denied one right or privilege that is enjoyed by any other portion of the community; and a very slight demand on the patriotism of our Irish citizens of that faith, ‘to ask that they refrain from public demonstrations on their national anniversary for this year.â€"G/obe, The RevouT in Tnz Lesaxox.â€"The new revolt in the Lebanon is not, as before, a war between the Druses and the Christians, but an armed opposition of the Chq\;tian tribes of the Mounâ€" tain to the Turkish goyernment, as represented and conducted by a Christian ruler, Daoud Pacha. The leader of the rebellion is Joseph Karam, a Maronite , Christian,. chitef of the village of Aiden, and it is said that |the whole Maronite population (numbering twL) hundred thousand persons, nn§ the strongest sect of the district) sympathize with the movement. The sudden imposition of heavy taxes upon the mountaincers is assigned as the reason for the outbreak, the chief grievance being the tobacco tax. â€" Formerly, every Emit, or Sheik, or â€" peasant, was free to cultivate as much of the weed as he liked ; and unless he took his produce into one of the towns on the plains, he paid no duty for what he grew. He was, moreover, at perfect liberty to barter and sell tobacco anywhere or to any one within the Lebanon dil?‘ict, and no duty was demanded ‘nor question#asked,â€" All this has been changed The custom duties upon tobacco are now fout times what they were a few years 4&go, and they are enforced with the utmost severity, even upon a few pounds of tobacco being taken from one village to another, + Suarpâ€"Snoorixc 1y Caxapa.â€"* Is there someâ€" thing in the Canadian climate that steadi¢s the hand and sharpens the sight?"
