The Canadian papers go far to persuade us that the

turmoil about the Indemnity Bill has been exaggerated in the former representations. One fact is not to be gainsaid : when the bilfpassed in the House of Assembly, is was supported by a decided majority of the British members. It is not, then, so exclusively French. The violence of the feeling against it appears to centre in such men as Sir Alan M'Nab, Colonel Prince, and other depositories of the old Tory fire; and round them, no doubt, a name duly rages. But they are not Canada. Independently of this most vehement form of disaffection, a bad feeling—a hostile sense of discontent and unsettlement—prevails more extensively ; and our Imperial Govern- ment ought to hit upon some ready stroke of policy to counteract it.
