While, like poor 3Iacawber, we are quietly waiting for " uonetliing to turn up," (-pinker is rife as to the nature of the urangeint tit entered into with the autloiritim touching our future as • country. The Horning t'osr, u we have already informed our readers, gives us, setnisoffieially, an inkling of what the recent conference of Canadian delegate:4 with members of the Imperial Cabinet re- sulted in ; but the iuformation thus given is only nerni.official, and it is barely possi- ble that when the whole question is de- bated in the Britiah Parliament it will be found that nothing deciaive has beet' ar. rived at. Even aupposing the Morning Pea to be correct in ita etntemente, our satirdaction must be qualified to a very considerable extent. 1Ve are glad to hear that England will stand by us—that she will guarantee the loan required fur the construction of the Interoolonial railway —that she will supply the monomer re- quired for our defence, and that the Canals of the Pnivime are to be enlarged for military and c immercial purposes.— But then when we come to think over the fact that Careida is expected to undertake the whole ef the Western defence, we cannot ig,norate the repert of Col Jervois,. in which Western Cailada was openly de. clared to be iudefeusible. There may be conditions attached to the bare statement of the Post, which will, when explained, be more encouraging, but as tho matter now stand., we can see nothing very in- spiriting in the otriatien. The opening of the Cannls would be a good thing, when accompliahe I, and it", along with that we can hare pee re (de with our American neighbora, we think Canada will reap all the commercial advantages that Annexation *old poseibly bestow. The settlemeet of the North-tVest quer,- tioa would also be of va.-t importance. to this country, but we, confess that we do not at all like the idea of our having to pey for the forts, &c., established by the Ilud- son's Bay Monoyoly. That Company was chartered in pursuance of a policy which is now condenfinal by all right- minded rpiakers and writers at home—a policy that has given rise to ruinous wars —which has retarded settlentent, and risen up as a formidable stumbling block in the way of the British Eueignuit where - ever he haa gone te create fur Liumilt a biome in a Colony of the Empire, whether that Carey be. Australia, India, New &kind ex North America,—and it seems very harcl that ne should be made to' suffer because at a certainiperiod it was considemd Uiat lands thousands of milee away from Iaowning street were only fit to be handed over to a rapacious fur trad- ing company. Many abuses in the man- agement of Colonial affmrs have been dis- covered and rectified, and we would fain hope that the Imperial authorities will be breught to feel beli,:e it is too late that Ice have vested rights as well as the Hud- son's Bay Compauy, and that we should not be called upou bi pay too much for the privilege of opening channels of com- munication to, and the acquisition of, a territory which will be only v.euable in so far as it is rendered attractive to the Eurepean emigrant. It ie juet poesible, after all we have beard of the mimosa of our delegates, that the results will not come up to our wore favorable expectations. For example, the correspondent of the Liverpool Times says that '• The Secretary for the Colonies " will have to lay le.fore the House of " Cr -immune the result of his six weeks' '' conference ith the - deputatom sent here by the Canadian government res- inicting the defences of the lake fron- .• tier, Front what I am told,.

" Cardwell may explain hoer; matters " stand, but he will have some difficulty " in persuading Parliament, in the present " State of the weather, and on the eve Ott, " dissolution, to trouble itself about Cur, " narlian polities at all." This view of the caw, if founded oo facts, would create a feeling of increased despondency through. ought this country, and we shall very soon be in 1 position to say that tho writer wag entirely mistaken.

The alarm that rang out on Tuesday . evening, the 2;th iust., drew a large cro.vd of people to the bank of the river, from twined which a dense volume of smoke was issuing. The ennowful dis- covery was made that it wart Plates Mill that was burning, and that there wu no hope of seeing it. ‘Vhen first discovered, the flames, which appear to have originat- ed in the upper story, were bursting' through the roof. Tee fire.engine was on the spot ae speedily as possible, but not one in a hundred thought it oould be of the slightest use, except to throw water upon the adjoining shaeliouee, which eon. tained a large quantity of wheat. How- ever the mnehine was hastily placed at the tail race where the supply of water tirm un:imited, and the effects of the firemen being nobly backed up by the general crowd, a !nevem of water was soon blaring and fizzing through the upper windows of the Mill. The engine acted splendidly, better, in fact, than we ever saw it do before, and it was worked to its full power by a dark masa of excited brakelmen.— The stream of water thrown waa power- ful enough to burst in a door on the upper story, used fur hoisting purpose., but, for wino time, it was doubtful whether any headway meld be made. At last, however, the Moues ceased to issue from the door and windows, whereupon • ..‘using cheer went up.

From this time all went well, and in hell to hour it became apparent to all that the danger wee over. Had the engine given out, or the supply of water been' insufficient, DO earthly power could have saved at least $10.000 worth of valuable property. At an early stage of the fire, before there Was any hope nf saving the building, a large quan- tity of flour iu barrels' was taken out of the mill, everybody working with a will. To their lastiog honor, we have to record that a number of Irishwomen, wives of la- borer., worked like heroes in helping out with anything that could be moved. The damage done by fire and water is estimated at about 13000. The building and contents wcro ineured for $27,000, en that Mr. I'latt, it is te be hoped, will oily suffer the kris of time required for repair*.
