States is expected to be larger than ever before;
Over 150,000 '-emigrants are expected from Ger?
many within the next 10 months. The causes, says
the New York Herald, influencing thia immense
movement are, first, the conviction that is gradu?
ally spreading among the masses in Germany that
our political troubles are over, and secondly the
fear of conscription at. borne. lu Prussia this lat?

SATURDAY MORNING, MARCH 2,1867.
THE KINGDOM OF CANADA.
Some of our Northern exchanges aro much per?
turbed in spirit at having the semblance of'royalty
thrust so closely into their vicinage. Whether
they aro afraid of annexation, or apprehensive that
in this new accession of dignity tho colonial
lion should "make months" ' (seo late George?
town, D. C., police regulations, where "making
months" at colored voters is put down as a serious
offence) at Unelo Sam's Bird of Liberty, we have
not yet been able positively to learn.
A bill bas Veen introduced into tho British Par
! liamont to unite tho several British Provinces in
I North America, the confederation to bo called
Uiu ?ingdoru of Canada," and tho federal logisla
ture to bc known as the Parliament of Canada, with
''Senate" and a HotiBe of Commons. A demo?
eratic sonate must answer, until lords and peers
can be created for tho purpose. A royal represen?
tative is to preside over the new kingdom. His
title is to be Governor-General, and ho is to have
j provincial Lieutenant Governors under him.
Our li orthern fri ends would fain find fault with this
scheme, yet know not exactly how it can bo shown
that tho afiair is any businoss of theirs, rhe
"Monroe Doctrine," so convenient on former occa?
sions, will hardly prove adequate to the emergency
even npon very considerable stretching. In the
case of tho French intervention of Mexico, and the
establishment of MAXIMILIAN'S Empire, the afore?
named Monroe Doctrine was made to do yeoman's
service. The Kingdom of Canada is even more
distasteful to our Down-East brethren than was
tho Empire of Mexico, but how is the "interpella?
tion" to be managed? Why, on the pretence that
the scheme is hostile to a large portion of the resi?
dents of British America. Lower Canada, says the
Now York Herald, has pronounced against it in un?
mistakable terms. Nova Scotia and the other island
provinces do not favor the idea at a l. Newfound?
land, Rupert's Island, Prince Edward Island,
British Columbia, and the vast Northwest Territory,
are not tb bo included in the confederation at pres?
ent, but provision is made for them to come in at a
future time, subject to the terms which the Par?
liament of the now kingdom may propose.
TUE INSURRECTION IN BELGIUM.
Wars anti rumors of wars everywhere. Tumults,
! insurrections, rebellions, revolutions, in what?
soever direction we turn our eye. Even Belgium,
I naturally one of the most quiet and peaceable coun?
tries in Europe, as it ia one of tho rroit magnifi
I cont, has its insurrection. The miners of the coal
I districts are in revolt. ? Troops have boen sent to
"quiet" them; but it is said, although much blood
I hos been shed in the attempt, the effort hos not
yet boon successful. The Belgian papers maintain
an ominous silence. Column after column is filled
with French politics, but not a word about the in?
surrection at home. So in the Chambers now in
session at Brussels; The ministry is "interpel?
lated" about the cattle plague, and long and spirit?
ed debates aro held on that very interesting sub?
ject; but thorough silence reigns in tho Parla?
ment, os also on the port of the ministry, in so far
I as relates to the said internal broil A letter in
the London Evening Standard, of the 8th ultimo,
written at Mons, contains some reflections on this
subject, decidedly unfavorable to the Government
of Belgium. As for os we can infer, the difficulty
seems to be a kind of "strike." "Wherever .troops
are massed, all is quiet-the streets are deserted,
and not a voice is heard.. But tho laborers indem?
nify themselves in the districts remote from those
occupied by the military. The whole vailey'orthe
Sambre and Meuse is one scene of agitation; and
if those mon are not promptly brought bock (says
this -correspondent) to their work, hunger will
make these ignorant and hungry masses very dan?
gerous, v
The French papers say that there is a rapidly
j growing party all over Belgium in favor of annex?
ation to France. Coming events cost their shadows
before. " .- . '
LIBERTY.
Apropos of 'WASHINGTON'S Birthday, and the re?
flections " naturally suggested on the occasion, in
j view of the present state of public affairs in Amer
I ico, the Bound Table hos the following paragraph:
The liberty which means the tyranny - of the
many, the oppression of intelligence by ignorance,*
the shackling of trade for the aggrandizement of
corruptionists, the imposition of taxes a hundred?
fold more onerous than those which.cost England
her colonies, the elevation of boors, blacklegs and
jail-birds to Congress, the robbing of the public
treasuries by organized bands of plunderers, the
abasement of literature, and the prostitution of
the press to the level of the vulgar rabble, and the
wholesale, degradation of society, through the poi- '
sonous .influences of riches gained by crime, was
fip? the liberty that Washington and his associates
fought and died for,.and not tho'liberty which, if
they now survey it, their noble spirits can approve.
Such liberty as this may not be, as Algernon Sid?
ney said. men's liberties .should not be, derived
"from kings;" but assuredly it is not, as he said it
should be, "from.God or nature."
ELECTIONS in three States are now-at hand. New
Hampshire leads off on the second Tuesday in
March. ? Governor, three Congressmen, a Rail-:
road Commissioner, members of both Houses of.
the Legislature, and some county officers, aro ' to
be chosen. WALTEB HABBOMAN is the Republican,
and JOHN G. SINCXAIB the Democratic candidate
for Governor. The vote last year -was as follows:

Connecticut will hold its election on the first
Monday in April. , The Republicans hove nomina-'
ted Gen. JOSEPH E. HAWLKT, the present neran

j Wednesday in April. The Republicans have
nominated Gen. BCBNSIDE for Governor. *
The vote last year for Governor was 11,178, Gen.
BUKNBLDE having no opp. _,ent,
THE NEW CONGRESS_When it assembles on the
fourth of March (Monday next)', the new Congress
will be without members from Connecticut, Califor?
nia, Kentucky, Rhede Island, New. Hampshire and
Tennessee. Tho present Congress has one hun?
dred and eighty-four members ; twenty-nine of
these seats in the now Congress wfll be vacant ott
the fourth of March, by reason of the States above \
named not yet having held their elections. Of
course the Southern States''Will, as now, be un?
represented. . It is supposed that after a session of
a week or two? an adjournment will take place un
til the middle of May, by.;wh*h time elections will
have been held in Connecticut, New Hampshire

of the American Board in Constantinople writes :
"The ?icrease in the number cf newspapers pub-'
hah ed hero, and in one or two other principal cities
of Tnrkey, and the increase of the number of per?
