Collisions between the Governor and Legislature of Canada.--There is much difficulty now prevailing in the Canada Legislature in respect to the administration of the public revenues. It appears that heretofore, certain revenues have been, under act of parliament, at the disposal of the provincial executive, subject to accountability to the imperial government. Lately, Earl Grey's cabinet have directed that the whole of the revenues be placed at the disposal of the provincial assembly. It is contended by some that the ministry had no right to do this without an act of Parliament repealing the former act Lord Aylmer, the Governor of Canada, in a message to the assembly, on the 25th ult. says, that the casual and territorial revenue of the crown, are not included in the surrender which he made in a former message in obedience to instructions from the ministry. This message has caused much excitement, not only in the Legislature but with the people at large. A large majority of the people declare that nothing short of the absolute control of the whole provincial revenue will be accepted, and they appear fully determined to maintain their declarations.

A spirit of liberty is evidently fast gaining ground in Canada, and there are many there desirous of throwing off allegiance to the British King. A liberal course on the part of the British government may delay a separation for a long time; but the day must and will come when British North America shall take a stand among the nations of the earth.--And the tyranny and folly of such governors as Dalhousie and Aylmer will hasten the great event.--Albany Daily Advertiser.
