A letter of October 26th, from War saw, says1 From the strength of the forces sent against Persia, it would seem that the project of Russia is to finish at a blow, and in the least time possible, a campaign into which she has been forced by the most unjust aggression. Nevertheless, it is to be feared that a single campaign will be insufficient, pariiculaily as the season is too lar advanced lor great progress to be made duiingthe winter in the inhospitable countries that forjrn the theatre of war Besides, tin Russians will probably fi rid more to struggle with in he difficulty of obtaining provisions, than in the stiength of the enemy, especially as the inhabitants of t:ie country, rude and Mahometan for the most part, do not entertain er favorab.e dispositions towards llui masters."

Our Provincial Parliament will meet on Tuesdaynext, and we anticipate a short and hoist erous session ; indeed, it is rumored that it is the intention of the Executive to dissolve the House, and in the new election to bring the Alien question into play, in order to get rid of its independence. If so, we may bid good bye to the prosperi ty and happiness of Upper Canada like urViappy Itclat d. ti e great bulk of the people will then be deprived of their rights as freemen, and trodden underfoot bv a few hirelings of power and of oflice, a ho w ill treat them worse than the beasts of the field; like Ireland, Upper Canada, instead of bcirg a conn nted, Inyfd, and peaceable people, will become filled with discontent dissatisfaction, and disturbance. The people ot Upper Canada, who have long . known the blessings of
freedom, can never tamely.Submit to be openly dcpiived of their rights although they have often been obliged to submit to their partial infri; tmcnt. For instance, look at the present House ot Assembly, the Constitutional ho.ders of the public pursestrings, denied the common privilege of paving tneir own contingent expenses ! Denied the common privilege of paying their hired seivants! Was there ever such an insult offered to a legislative body ? Canadian Freeman.

" It would really appear to he taintiy perceived, or seldom considered, among us, how tormid biej rivai we mu-thavc one day to contend with in the U. Mates ; how rapidly that day is approaching ; and I how momentous ntusi be the issue. At 1 so great a dis-ance, and comparatively of minor interest, little is tiete observed of the inuiguing, ambitious and imperious character ot a people and government who consider every thing they ran claim and reach, as alu-ady theit own, and every tlung they cannot. as an injury to be borne only till they 'have acquired funher strength In the very leitns of a previous concession they can find subject lor frtsh demands With rec iprocity lot ever in tin ir mouths, they can induce us to re lax our system of navig ition and y ield them commercial advan ages, which they then re'us;., o delay lo ieu tt, and seem to thi' k conduct which in private lite, woti'd be though little consistent with go-ui i.dth. to ihc pi ool ot policy on 'heir pait, or oi weaknvss on ouis Yrt i whatever subtiiiy ti.ey may descend on some occasion, the boldness ot their mea sines on oliu is bear no proportion to the imbecility of thtir present power, but spen to assume ad tlie imp. stance of their expectations ; S: as if ihe vast rnun ttks of t tie west v.e.c now too liuie fen ttieir increase, or were aheaiv but ,he mi .ins ot acquiring more, wt s e vheo g' :is;ii;g, with one hai.d the chores ot tie (iuit ot Mcmco, and reaching, vrith the t i-cr, at. tin: Ciud of St. Law rence ; lot ti tvjug the cnomli ot he Columbia, o i that si e ot the g:b , intrigui g ami threaten ing for n port m ihe.

(Wha i this but to say, rVai it any nation will go to war with G. Britain, tliey staml rt ady to join them ?) Phei attempt to setz , heir unw iliingne as to relinquish, heir very dmand of, the territo; in question, is a striking indication of their aims, and lu tut e measures. For why doihey thus co vet the possession of so angular ami insulated a tract, as if they had not alieady more vacant land than they can people lor centuries? Why, but lor the injury and insult it must inflict upon Great Britain? for surely the mjui y to the security of the em piie will not be greater than the insuit upon its policy, if they have any aigumcnt, by w hir h we can be persuaded, that th Noith West angie of Nova Scotia, which Fiat e once had at the souice of the Kennebee,Englat d at the Penobscot, and the Ameiicaj.s themselves, in '83, agreed was on he mouth of the St John's, is, in potnt ot fact, at the mouth ot the St Lawiencc. The st oct is, that the U States have long lound the British American Provinces to lie heavil) on theit flank and rear, and overhang and command their coast Toihtow so effectual acuib, and still more, by the acquisition ot these possessions, to lid themselves of the superiority, or even ot the presence, of the British fleets, in those waters; to get at their minds, to monopolize the fish and limber of America, foice ihemselvts into the West Indies, and force Great Biitain out ; these have been their constant objects pitice their firl sti uggle for independence to the present hour. Their ef forts h.vc as yet been unavailing; nor have they for the future, by at ms at least, any prospect of better success. In a few years, these colonies will not contain less than two millions of inhabitants, who, in such a couo'rv as Amctica, aicnot t. be conquered, and, in iho mean lime, expe
rience has shown, that with the protection of Great Biitian, ttu y ma) be defended, except indeed theii natuial barriers are conceded by negotiation, and their connexion and communication with each
