Editor's note: A contemporary very politely dubs our recent strictures on the Colonial Office, 'constructive treason two steps removed.' We have carefully compared our remarks with certain eloquent and cutting phillipies addressed to the Downing-Street bureaucracy by some of the most distinguished statesmen of modern days; and we cannot do better than justify our remarks by giving a rhythmical version of some passages in a famous speech of Lord Brougham's when he pointed out the incompatibility of the notorious system of 'laissez aller' with the maintenance of England's Colonial Dependencies.
