RTY WARFARE.

Editor of the Star).

int at i-3sue between the ml the Governor being ths fcthat could possibly arise in >veined upon constitution; 1 •y principle—the sooner it is xnc better it will be for all parties concerned. When in 1829 the Bourbon rlraasty, represented by Charles A, blundered into its fatal conflict.-with the defenders of the French " Charter" and constitutional liberty, Monsieur Thiers then the simple editor or the National newspaper invented that now immortal acLve " the King reigns, but does not govern." It was also in attempting to violate this eternal principle, _ that the Stuart dynasty, at an earlier period of Eng lish history, lost its male representative on the scaffold; aa.d the present House of Hanover was punished fora similar attempt ■with the loss -of its North American colonies now known as the United States. Without presuming to express any opinion upon the present dispute, I may add that temporary anarchy and revolution appear to have invariably followed in the past any royal or Cromwellian attempts to violate the freedom of a people, as represented by its elected Parliament, One point, how eve'-, seems perfectly clear. The Gov ernor having chosen to " appeal to Ccesar/ 5 in the person of the Colonial Secretary, to decide whether he simply reigns, or governs too, Sir George Grey will be justified in declining either to ask for a dissolution, or to resign—should one or two of our so-called representatives _ now mysteriously declare-againsthim.until Lord Carnarvon's" decision upon this privilege point be received. It is true that staving off the dissolution will be heaping coals of lire upon many a traitor's head, but then, it is au ill wind that blows nobody good- Even superior persons, who ha^e already, like Othello, lost their heads, or their billets, or both.—Yours, &c, F. H. Tkoup.

Alluding to the exhibition in Melbourne in 1879, and the possible visit of 11.R.5. the Prince of Wales, a Melbourne correspond ent says : " There is considerable talk about the Great International Australian Exhibition, which it is proposed to hold in Melbourne in 1879. His Excellency the Governor was,- it appears, requested to allude especially to this matter in his after drinner speech.. ShJ George 80-wen is great at speeches on such an occasion as this, and he was as felicitous as usual. He advo cated strenuously the erection of a building for the exhibition, which would afterwards serve as a permanent palace of industry. 'Supposing, (said his Excellency) that the cost* of 'the buudiug is £100,000, it would amount virtually to an annual charge to the colony of £5,000. Without the co-operation of the Imperial Government and the sister colonies the idea must, of course, be abandoned, but with their co-operation, only one thing further can be needed to make it a triumphant success, and that is the presence of the Prince of Wales. The Prince of Wales himself told me two years ago that he is very desirous to see Australia, and no doubt, if invited by both Houses of Parliament, he might be induced to come oiit to ojien the Ex hibition. About fifteen years ago the Parliament of Canada invited the Prince to Montreal to open the railway bridge there, so that is a precedent which the Parliament here might follow. lam quite certain that whatever the enthusiasm with which he was received in America, sucli enthusiasm would be equalled in Australia." It will be seen by this that the probability of the Heir Apparent visiting the Austra lian oolonies is a very distant one. If it is to come about at all it will not be for two years. Sir George Bowen, we believe, first gave currency to the report.
