To tbb northeast of the State of Maine, sepa. jated from it bj the Bay of Fundy, is the almost island of Nova Sootia. It contains about half a million of inhabitants, and about 18,000 square miles of territory. For many years, we may say centuries, it has been allowed to make its own laws, eleot its own Officers, and in every way regulate its internal affairs, almost the same as an independent provinoe. The only tnbjeotion to the British Crown was in the appointment of certain nominal officials, whose presence kept alive a spirit of loyalty, and reminded them, with out offense, of their connection with the British Crown. Such was the state of the provinoe a sort of Utopian state if we can believe the Attorney-General until the idea was conceived of perfecting the union of the provinces. Against this little Nova Scotia rebelled. She recognized clearly that in a general assembly, her laws would be made by representatives coming from an en tirely distinct country from a zone different from theirs. What could a native of Red River, or a resident of Hudson Bay know of the wants of Nova Scotia or the commerce Of Halifax f Then, again, she would have to bear a burden of taxation which to her was new and startling. They state, in a formal pro test, published a few days since in Tub Even ing Telegraph, that they pay more than double taxes, and do not receive half as many privileges as they did when they were inde pendent. The result is that the members 0 the loyal Legislature, with but one exoeption, protest against the union as tyrannioal, and against the spirit of the British Constitution. They say that they are taxed by a Legislature not eleoted by the people, aud governed by rulers in whose selection they have no voice. They are determined at every hazard to free themselves from so oppressive a condition by legal means if possible; but they are deter mined to be free. The Attorney-General, Han. William Wilkins, in a speeoh delivered in the House, declared that he for one was reaiy for anything rather than "the detestable con federation," and hinted clearly that if no redress can be found at St. James they will see if at Washington assistance cannot be afforded. We regret to see that certain papers in the States are inclined to ridioule the statement of the Attorney-General, and to sgeak despair ingly of the wish of a people to be free, be cause they are small aud weak. The faot, however, that from words spoken, the Attorney-General was called to aooount, and inuoh alarm expressed at his "treasonable" remarks, indicates that he but gave voioe to a popu lar sentiment. A Government, strong in itself can afford to treat with careless indif ference threats such as those uttered; but when those threats but eoho the thoughts of the people, the smallest mutterings should be well heeded. There is in the dissatisfaction in Nova Sootia food for reilection in the United States. The province is a rich one. It is situated contiguous to the United States, as it is the point furthest east to which all vessels oome. The ocean telegraph extends from it. In truth, in many respects Nova Sootia would be an accession to the United States most wel come and valuable. If this dissatisfaction be wide-spread, surely it is not for us to laugh at it, or to use our influenoe to sooth it down. The oonduotof the British Government towards us has not been such as to cause us to lend our aid to cruBh a rebellion in one of her pro vinces. Should we seoure possession of Nova Scotia, as a member of our Union, an entirely new regime would be opened, we would eon trol the key to all foreign intercourse, and, to a certain extent, require all to say our "open Eesame" to gain admittance to this con tinent. A different state of society would be found there. No more would we see suoh a spectacle as that presented by the report of emigration to the Provinoes, which says that "twenty-three thousand two hundred and seventy-six emigrants have arrived at To ronto during the present year, of whom only 3101 remained in Canada, .' One emigrant in eight remains in Car.ada i Would suoh a state be continued if. the wise Government of the United States bad charge of the rivers? This, too, as tV.e proof of the first year of confederation, t .11 seems to warrant the "de testable Uniov being so termed. We think that it is not impossible that the day is near When we vill have added Nova Scotia to our possessior ,s. It is a Jewel which the United States y jvets most anxiously; and should the Alabaiv a claims not be settled, we think that they t aight be assumed by the Government, on or edition of the cession of the peninsula. Sue' h waa done with Spain in regard to Flo ri'Ja, Franoe aud Louisiana, Mexico and Vexas, to a limited extent. Why should not the time-honored custom be continued, and we buy Nova Scotia by endorsing British due- bills ? Military and Civil Presidents. Joum T. Hoffmann, the Democrats candidate for Governor of New York, in a reoent Bpeeoh at Buffalo said: 'Upon the platform stood two bronze statu ettes of noble eolUers, one leaning upon a great bronze sword. The Convention bad been In sesnlon for several days; ballot after ballot bad taken place. First one ws up aud tlien duoiher, and at lust a gallant General, whose name baa never been mentioned anywhere save with respect I mean General Hancock. (o man anew whether ou the next ballot he waa or was not to be ehneen. Everything wa uncertain when suddenly the great brou7,a word In the band of that noble statute snapped aoander at the hilt. It was not touched by mortal hands no human agency broke It. Home mysterious, invisible and Irresistible power snapped It at the hilt, and the word went forth tbat the country was henceforth to bAve a statesman and not a soldier for a leader." It thus appears that the anoient Roman custom of referring grave affairs to the de cision of augurs, who were influenced in their Judgment by the flight of birds, and equally pertinent circumstances, prevails in a modified form among the Democraoy of the present day. Whether the mysterious destraotion of the sword of the armed figure in Tammany Hall was rightly interpreted remains extremely doubtful. If a great moral and political lesson was to be taught by a oiroumstanoe that was probably purely accidental. Some augurs might have inferred that the deitruotion of the sword of Tammany meant that it had lost power forever, and that the members of the Convention had better go home without making any nomination at all in opposition to the irresistible Grant. The Seymour augurs, however, in imitation of some of their anoient prototypes improved the oooaslon by a false Interpretation favorable to their design of slaughtering the soldier aspirant for Demo cratic honors. When the American people adopt the oon. elusion that "the country is henceforth to have a statesman, and not a soldier, for a leader," they will want some better ground for this deoision than the mutilation of the brittle wares of Tammany Hall. The best soldiers of this country, Washington and Jackson, proved superior statesmen and the best of Presidents. The qualities that ensured their triumph at the head of their countrymen in the field, ensured wise and suooessfal action in the Exeoutive Mansion. Wielding un bounded influence over the people, it was never prostituted to bad ends, but uniformly exercised for the attainment of beneficent and patriotio objects. Above all, peace was main tained, for foreign foes and domestio traitors consider well before they arouse the anger o a nation headed by a famous military chief tain. General Grant's letter of aooeptanoe con tains this significant promise: "If elected to the office of President of the United States, it will be my endeavor to administer all the laws in good faith, with economy, and with the view of giving peace, quiet, and protection everywhere." This clear declaration, coming from a man who uses but few words, but who knows exaotly what they mean, and who faithfully fulfils his pledges, gives to the country every assurance that patriotio men can desire that the affairs of the nation will bs administered, under the coming President, with an eye single to the welfare of the whole people. Grant's comprehensive promise is worth a thousand times more than the vaunted statesmanship of the Democratio candidates. Horatio Seymour, before his nomination, was publicly committed to doctrines diametrically opposed to those promulgated by his party, and he sacrificed his principles to his ambi tion in accepting the Tammany nomination and indorsing the Tammany platform. His readiness to abandon his acknowledged con victions at the behests of his party having thus been exposed, the people are warned at the outset that he will continue to obey in the future, as he has in the past, the commands o the leaders of his organization, his boasted statesmanship serving no other end than to frame excuses for new betrayals of the real interests of the American people. His triumph would be the signal for a revival of all the worst passions engendered by the Rebellion, and the people would be compelled to witness a reversal of all the verdicts won by the hard earned victories of the war. Animated by the same spirit whioh prompted James Buohanan to say, "I am no longer James Buchanan, but the Democratio platform," Horatio Seymour, if elected, would beoome like his last Demo cratio prototype, the servant of the Southern conspirators, and under their guidanoe there could neither be economy, peace, quiet, nor protection for the loyal citizens of the United States. Horatio Seymour is still in the speech-making line. Yesterday he discoursed to a large assemblage at Saratoga on agricultural topios, ignoring politics, and paying special attention to the watermelon prospects, whioh Horatio, as in his famous watermelon epistle, regards as unusually brilliant. After the watermelon speech a serenade was tendered the standard bearer of the Demooracy, and he again re sponded, this time very briefly, and without any reference, near or remote, to either the watermelon or Presidential prospeot. Horatio was also inclined to be facetious, and while in this amiable mood he introduced to the audi ence General Gordon Granger, in these words: "We have with us to-night a gallaut soldier, who has done much to sustain I he character of New York upon the battle field." What a covert sarcasm is herein implied upon his own course during the Rebellion General Gordon Granger did do the State of New York and the country some service ou the field of battle. Bat what a contrast is presented by his record, and that of the leader under whom he has now arrayed himself Rosecrans, Hancock, Mc demand, Granger, Custer, and Franklin this is the Demooratio roll of "White" Boys in Blue, and in close company with them are fouud Lee, aud Baaa regard,'and Hampton, and Forrest, and almost every man of high or low repute who wore the uniform of grey. They are all now mar shalled under Horatio's banner, and are all equally "representative in their raverenoe nd regard for the Union I" ',. .' , ,7 Ciieeriko I Reports reoeived from different parts of the State in regard to t'io manner in which the campaign is progressing'' are most encouraging. The Republican party la at work. Not only is it holding meetings, but it iB quietly engaging and preparing &r the fight. The great anxiety observable everywhere is as to Philadelphia. "What will the olty do T" is the universal inquiry. If we but follow the example of the country, and work as hard, we predict a majority of over 20,000 in' the Key stone State in October, and far more than that in November next. Letters from gentlemen and ladies who are in the South continue to depiot a most fearful state of disorganization. From one whom we know to be reliable we hear that as soon as a Northern man arrives in Mississippi, he is called the most opprobrious epithets by the gang of ruffians who loiter around the railroad stations, and if he esoapes with his life he may be thankful. Like the palmy days of Kansas outrages, they beat every new settler if he is a free-trade man, and if he deolares himself a slavery man, they beat him the more for tell ing them a falsehood. To tteer between the two is impossible. Anarohy reigns in many portions. The dreadful case of tarring a wo man, whioh was published yesterday, is the best commentary on the uncivilized condition of tbat region. What a contrast is presented from what oould have been secured had but reason and Christianity been allowed to gov ern the aotion of the Southern people. In stead of business stagnation and sooial revolu tion, they would have had that vast influx of Northern capital whioh was ready to at ouoe hasten to them the moment that the war was ended in spirit as well as in the body. Railroads would have developed resources as yet undreamt of. Enterprise would have marked every State, and the entire oountry been on the high road to renovation of the past. Instead of that we see to-day a spirit of rebellion rampant. No capital dares to enter the region cursed by suoh a source of villainy. The South is the strong man dead to all rea son through his insane passion for riotous living. The spectaole is a sad one, and makes pertinent the question, what shall we do to arouse bim 7 It requires some deoided blow, and that blow must be given by the eleotion of Grant and Colfax by a majority which will make further delusion impossible.

One of the Committee on Resolutions in the late Tammany Convention writes to the Hun and abks: "Does tbe World desire to defeat Governor Seymour lor the Presidency?" He then proceeds to say: Under what miluence. and for what reason, does Ibispaper peislsi In assaulting tbe military career and private character ot Ueneral Urant, wnen Ids a recognized tact la amerlcau poll ilea tbat the abuse ul a caudldate by his enemies Is more bauellclal (ban the iuosi elaborate encomiums of bis friends?

The Convention appealed with sincerity to the "lute ligeuce of the American people;" the World seems te rely for success upon the passions and prrjud ces of a portion of that people.
