The problem of combining the present dis jointed British North American provinces in to a Confederacy w§uld appear to be neat a practical solution. The Union of Canada with Nova Scotia, New Bruuswick. New foundland and Priucc Edwards Islands, would present the most splenaid example of the formation of a Confederacy of any his tory exhibits, not excepting the union of these States The extent of territory that would be brought into political connection.the vast ness of undeveloped resources, the fertility of the soil, auc the energy of the occupants, colonized principally by the Anglo-Saxon race—would present the proportions of a Confederation which would tind no parallel except that of the United States. A mere outline of tlrt* geographical extent and resources shows the vast ness of the Brit ish possessions in this continent. Indepen dent of British Columbia, Vancouver’s Island and Hudson’s Bay, the number of square miles is 418, «>4l; in the other British Prov inces, adding the above portions of territory, the total amounts to 2,218,641 square miles, which is the area given of the territory of the United States. In the six colonies con stipating the provinces, which it is propos ed to embrate in the pew confederacy, the number of acres under cultivation is 18,128, 229, otft of the whole quantity 45,288,854 appi’opriatcd as private property'. The agri cultural jjfoductions yield an annual value of 150 millions of dollars In Nova Scotia ; gord, iron, coal and copper are found in abundance. The quantity ot. coal at present is half a million of tons per annum. Four years ago gold was discovered, and uow 150 mines are worked. New Brunswick, in con nection with Nova Scotia has coal deposits extending over seven millions of acres.— Canada has a profusion of iron. The aggre gate value of the fisheries is supposed to yield 20 millions of dollars Having 5000 miles of sea coast, the British Provinces have exhaust less maritime resources. The number of sailors and fishermen by the lust returns amounted to 69,250. The population of the siS colonies is estimated at 4,000,000, ‘yield ing P. 93, HI 8 fighting men. The total exports for 1868 amounted to $60*847,138; the im ports to $71,601,456 in live or six of the provinces. These form the material of a great con federacy, not only in the present but the fu ture, as the outlying portions, consisting of the British possessions on the Pacific, he come embraced within its limb*. There are some points of resemblance be tween the recent convention, composed of delegates from the different provinces, as sembled at Quebec in September, 1862, and our convention for a similar purpose in Phil adelphia. in 1789, as exhibitiug*tliat spirit of conciliation and compromise where there exists great inequality of population and re sources between the provinces that propose to come into union. The opposition to union between Upper and Lower Canada it was difficult to overcome. The numbers of the former exceeded those ol the latter by four hundred thousand, and the result of equality of representation would be the disfranchize raent of these four hundred thousand, But the greatest obstacle to overcome was the difference of .rages in the two Canadian provinces, Lower Canada being populated by the Celtic and Upper Canada by the Angfb- Saxon races. Yet these differences were Reconciled, andthe two Canadas, as the result of their common deliberations, agreed to unite with the other provinces in forming a confederacy. It,however, will present essential differences of features from our Ponfederatiou. It will exhibit only tbs partial adoption of the Fed eral principle. There will he political incor poration between the provinces—a union under a general legislature; but the execu tive authority will he vested in the Queen of England, with a Chief Executive of their own, to be nominated by the Crown, and a Legislature in which the provinces are to be represented in a House of Commons elected b y popular vote, and a Legislative Council clMweu by the Crown, which is to have a ve to on the acts of the Legislature. It is evident that this scheme of Federatiftr has few Federal features, and that the idea of Centralization predominated in its forma tion. It is a kind of anomalous combination of Imperialism and the principle of a Fed eration. The negative of the home govern ment on the acts of the general legislature with the nomination of the governor general and the members of the Legislative Council impart to it a centralizing character with very little departure from the relation in which these colonies stood before to the pa rent country. However a legislative union was a great axi vantage to colonies so divided in interests and diversified in resources. The near neighborhood of a powerful Republic was, we prowume, a governing motive in continu ing jjmler the protecting wing of a powerful monarchy at the sacrifi?e of that share of independence which could only be attained by entirely severing the ties between them *aud the parent State. %* % PRICE. 5 CENTS NR. JACOB N. CARDOZO. In Vol. IV. ol* Appleton's New American Cyclopaedia we find the following notice of Mr. Jacob N. Cardozo. who has been for some months one of the editors of the Savan nah Hkkai.d. He reached Ills seventy-ninth year on Saturday last, yet retains the vigor ot his intellect unimpaired, as those who have read his contributions to our columns on Finrnce. Political Economy, and kindred subjects, from time to time, can testify. For nearly fifty years a leading editor in the South, lais retention ol all his literary abilities to this extreme age is remarkable : “Cakdozo, Jacob N., an American journal ist and politicaleconomist, bora at Savan nah,, Ha., June 17, 1786. About 1794 his hvp!ah' removed to Charleston, S. C., where he received a plain English education,. and from his 12tli year was pnt to mechanical and mercantile, pursuits. In 1816 he became editor of the “Southern Patriot" newspaper in Charleston, of which, in 1823, he became sole proprietor. He had long studied the princi ples of trade, commerce, and finance, and his purpose from the first was to render bis journal especially an organ of free trade doctrines. 1 Having a constant view to those, commercial questions in which the interests of the Southern States were involved, the commercial relations of the U. 9. with the British West India Islands, in their then re stricted condition, engaged a large share of his attention. The removal of those restric tions was an object of constant solicitude with Mr. Monroe's administration. To force a relaxation by the British Government, Congress iu 1818 and 1820 adopted counteract ing regulations. These, whatever their effect on the British, were found to be oppressive on Southern commerce. In 1822 various seaport towns of the South, such as Norfolk and Baltimore, petitioned Congress for their removal."’ The city of Charleston was so far inclined to secoud the movement that a large public meeting was held, and a memorial was drafted for its acceptance. Mr. Cardozo regarded the case as an exceptional one, and opposed the memorial. He argued against unlimited freedom of intercourse where re ciprocity was denied, and at an adjourned meeting of the citizens the memorial was re- . jected. leaving the whole matter as before, in the hands of Congress and the Executive. The result which was aimed at in the coun tervailing resolutions of Congress was Soon seen in the partial removal of the British re strictions. When this was done, President Monroe opened the ports of the United States to thes,vessels of the British West In dies. Mr. Cardozo took an active part in the establishment, in 1823, of the Charleston chamber of Commerce. The tariff of 1824 met with little or no united opposition from the south. When, in *1827, an increase of protection was agitated, it resulted in the act of 1828. Mr, C. brought the subject before the chamber, and was one of a committee appointed to draft a memorial to Congress, which unanimously adopted by the citizens dPfc-harft*Btoa in a public meeting.'; The arguments on the subject, however* new, rapidly made their way into the public mind ol that State, and constituted the chief po litical capital of the press and parties. The agitation ripened into nullification, the con troversies upon which began in 1828. Mr. Cardozo continued ills opposition to the pro tective tariff, still maintained his free trade argument, but declined to adopt the extreme practical results to which nullification was expected to conduct. The advocates of nullification succeeded in the State, but Mr. C. forfeited none of the public esteem in con sequence of his course. He continued to con duct the “Southern Patriot,’’ keeping it steadily the exponent of the comrawiial principles of which he had been so long the advocate, until 1845, when he sold the paper, and soon after, in the samd year, established the*“Evening News,” another daily news paper, with which he has ever since been as sociated as commercial editor. His reputa tion as a political ceonomist has become fixed in the esteem ot the Southern people, though few know how extensively he has written on all the subjects we have indicated. He has contributed to the “Southern Quarterly Review’’ and other periodicals, and in 1826, he published “Notes on Political Economy,” 1 vol. Bvo. The dAPiTOu—The dome of the Capitol, upon which the hammer has been busy for the last four years, at last stands up in the summer air, a finished and most graceful piece of architecture. Crawford’s statue of “America,” put into colossal, bronze by Clark Mills, surmounts the dome—a beauti ful creation of art. The atrocious and bar barous head-gear, consisting of a eviscerated eagle, with a row of stiff quillrf down its back, is evett more objactionable than when it was upon the ground. It is some satisfac tion to remember that this cap was designed by Jeff. Davis, wheh he was Pierce’s Secre tary of War, and to know that, in death, as in life, it will be added to the list of his sins. It is also to be regretted that the Goddess , turns her back resolutely upon the city and upon the West, whither “ the star of Empire” moves, and faces the Old World, with its despotisms and follies. But, these objections aside, the effect of the new dome is very grand, and the Capitol presents a harmony of outline and proportion which it was feared it never would obtain. Inside, soldieis and visitors wander listlessly through the desert ed halls, sit in the seats of members and reverend Senators, and tfwake the echoes by hammering upon the desk* where Colfax, Grow, Banks, Orr, Winthrop, Hunter, Folk, John Bell and Henry Clay have hammered in by-gone years. The striking and spirited picture of the “Storming of the Heights of Cbepultepec,” which has recently hela position at the head of the north stairs, is superceded by the mongrel picture of “ Old Chippewa,” repre senting a cerulean Scott riding a pink horse with a Solferino tail, across a yellow mea dow—a very caricature, in fact, but no doubt accepted by the shbject of it, in all its tawdry gorgeousness, as a genuine thing. It is ‘a touler attempt upon the old hero’s life than even hie recent autobio.jraphy. —Rochester Democrat.
