and I believe that is the only document - that has appeared 10 throw any light on the subject.Now, my lords, | believe that letter truly represented the renl state of the case; but it is difficult, 1 must own, 10 comprehend in - that view of the case how it could happen that the Poreign Sceretary of the United States should have been so mis'ed as to suppose that t there was ruch awintention on the part of the British government.1 know but twa suppositions that could by possibility explain the circumstance : one is, that any communication made to the American government was courhed in such terms us to convey that impression to the government of the United States ; the other £ ie, that no communication whatever of the kind was made\u2014that no intimation required by rie ordinary rules of courtesy was given\u2014bat that they were left to put their own construction upon the nets of the British government.Now, {| which of these two explanations is the right one fo convey a proper understanding of the state of the question, I am not able to say; but, my lords, I think, in this position of the question, it is not unfair to ask that the noble earl opposite would give some explanation to your lordship, to the country, to the colonists, and to the American fishermen who are ao deeply interested in the insue, There is one other matter connected with this question whieh induces u.e to take an early opportunity ot aub- mitting the subject to the noble earl.There have been rumors current, especially in the United States and Canada, that some fresh arrangement respecting the treaty connected with the fisheries, is proposed to he made part of a hegotiation for improving the commercial regulations between our North American colonies and the United States.Ilaving no doeu- ments to refer to, I only speak of this as | know it lo be a current rumor in those parts ; but I think it affords an additional reason for asking the noble Earl to communicate some informa~ tion respecting the present position of the question.What now wieh to ask the noble Earl is, to inform us whether tho correapondence and communications which have been going on for some time past are how brought to a conclusion with respect to the fisheries on the coasts of our North American colonies; and if so, whe~ ther the Government intend to lay the papers connected with.the discussion: before Parlin- f t , \u2018the direct descendant of the eminent lawyer no narrow basis, but on the broadest possible field.We met the same spirit from Commodore Perry, who was ordered by the American government to watch over the interests and protect the property of the American fishermen, who were exercising their right not near our shores but around our coasts.As to the American government, with the exception of that first letter that appeared to have been written in # moment of excitement, when Mr, Webster was suffering from the illness he had been long laboring under, there has not been a word said by any official person in the United States, that does not give us most sanguine hope that this negotialion my be shortly brought ta a conclusion, and that all possible reason for dispute between these two countries may entirely cease.When that period shall arrive, it will be a gatis- faction to me to lay as soon as possible the papers on the table, for which the noble lord has asked.Their lordships then adjourned.QUEBEC, 20m DECR., 1852, The Editor of the Mercury having invited us into the field of controversy upon the Bérubé case\u2014having called upon us \u201c in the name of the people,\u201d &e., to answer certain queries\u2014acknowledges our bland response by calling us the * hired scribe of a corrupt administration,\u201d and many other names equally polite.We would advise our brother of the press, to abjure this silly affectation of a superiority which he too well knows to be utterly baseless, and which even the most weak-minded of his readers ay be apt to treat with derision.Our vocation as a public writer is upon a footing with that of the writer in the Mercury.Our birth is Canadian, and we deem it as good as hie, whatever that may be.We have a character of personal respectability equal to his, whatever that should happen to be.We have not the pleasure of his acquaintance, nor do we know his name, or much care to know it, but from signs and tokens we judge that he numbers many nore years than we do\u2014and yet giving him choice of ground, we offer to meet him in any field of argument to-morrow, and prove to his own satisfaction that we are his over match ! Our calling therefore being the same, our character as good, our years alone fewer, but our ability greater, in what consists that inequality in his favour which entitles the ** hired seribe * of the Mercury, to crow over the \u2018hired scribe \u201d of the Gazette, as he is pleased to designate the editorial dignity ?* Cooke or Norrork :\"\u2014The learned editor in answer, to our reproof upon his inability even to spell\u201d correctly the name of the great luminary of English law, the most celebrated of all the English law writers, Lord Coke, says\u2014* Mr.Cooke of Norfolk, afterwards Eatl of Leicester, was and inheritor of his name.\u201d Now wé have to tell the * hired scribe\u2019 in question, that there is no such person as * Mr.Cooke of Norfolk.\u201d Tet him consult the Peerage and he will find the Earl of Leicester's name human being to another, and not as constitu tional miuinsters of a constitutional Sovereign.\u201d The writer's supposition as to the man ner in which affairs of state are conducted under the Constitution, which is the glory of every Dritish subject, the envy and ad- n.iration of every other subject, is both curious and ludicrous, and betrays a really monstrous ignorance of the very rndiments of all constitutional knowledge.The gentleman who figures in the Mercury as the familiar student of Coke (Cooke, we beg his pardon,) is evidently unacquainted with the pages of any writer upon the History of England.Hume, Hallam, MacIntosh, Montesgnieu, Rapin, Goldsmith, with some ten or twelve others, whose names have never reached his ears, aie evidently sealed books to our Theban.Nay, we doubt much if he has even made himself acquainted with the merest school-boy version\u2014 Pinnock\u2019s catechism, for instance.When lie talks about Her advisers having \u201c nothing to do with the matter,\u201d that is, the matter of advising Her upon one of the most delicate and important duties which she has to perform, he denies the main principle of responsibility which rans through every department, office and channel of English judicature and government, If the Constitution of England says, with apparent anomaly, that the King can do no wrong, it means that the King can do no one act, as King, upon his own personal responsibility.That the Sovereign may go free from that personal responsibility which threw the country into the convulsions of civil war, and once brought a crowned head to the ignominy of a public and shameful execution upon the scaffold, she has been wisely relieved from all responsibility, by being made emphatically irresponsible.Thus he is surrounded by advisers, known to the country, who while upon their part they can do no act as ministers, without the knowledge and concurrence of the sovereign, so neither ean he as sovereign, do one single act for the doing of which he has not had their counsel, and for the doing which they (not the sovereign) are responsible to the country.Hence the phrase that the King can dono wrong.Whilst on the other hand no wrong can be done to the country, emanating from the royal power and authority, for which the country cannot have all the redress and all the accountability, which human punishment of human delinquency can afford.All this is the mere A 13 C of English history and law.But if, as the Mereury would have it, the sovereign of England may have advice tendered to her upon no higher footing of right than that which \u201c one human being\u201d -has to tender advice to another, that of course must include the whole human race.It was this, as our friend, if he will read English History, will sce, that Chatles the Second received as advice from the great enemy and .rival of the country he governed, the King longs tothe Sovereign personally.He says: \u201c Her advisers have nothing to do with the matter ; if they tender her advice, it is ns one so, it 1s impertinent and gratuitous intrusion in any individual, however high his posi the sovereign and her God.to have thus to expose the flimsy character to pry into her motives.sentations, and supreme nonsense.own dilemma l the records of the Inspector General's office will permit :\u2014 Salary of the Archdeacon of Kingston, £333 as Minister of the Chareh of England, £111 24 24, Grasset, and Thomas @.Ridour, Esq.Trea- pel in Foreign parts, new sales, Æ£3485 13s.20.\u2014 \"Total, £12,646 7s.\u2014 \u2014_\u2014 Surplus Revenues, Paid Thomas Trigg, and Propagating the Gospel in foreign parte.Amount\u2014old sales, £2,022 9s.7s ;
