Bommaniradinns, To the Editor of the St. Croix Avis, Dear Sir: Having had the honour, by virtue of my of fice as an elder in the Church, to present to the Reverend D. C. Vater the following farewell Address and being intimately acquainted with the facts therein contained, I, for myself, and in the name of my brethren, most politely re quest that you would give it a place in your paper as a public testimonial of the worth of an individual who, in his character of minister f the congregation 1 had the honour to represent, has shown so much zeal and devotion in the exercise of his functions. The reverend gentleman sailed last night for Denmark. I am, dear Sir, Yours respectfully, C.C. WISPETALL. Frederiksted April 18th 1865. To The Reverend D. C. Vater Pastor of the Lutheran Congregation Frederiksted. Reverend and highly-respected Sir! 1t is with feelings of the highest esteem and affection that we, the undersigned, members of the Lutheran Missionary Congregation, present you, on the eve of your departure on a visit to your home and country after a sojourn of iive years amongst us, this our farewell address ex pressive of our high appreciation and grateiul acknowledgments of your faithful services up to the present time. We are sure, Reverend Sir, that we can in no way better reward you for your untired zeal and devotion in the carry ing out of your pastoral Duties than by praying our Heavenly Father to take you and your much-respected and amiable wife under His gracious protection; and that it may please Him “who measures the water in the hollow of his hand; who maketh a weight for the winds who rulest the raging of the sea, and stillest the waves when they arise,” to guide the vessel, in which you are, safely on her voy age to the desired haven, where, with glad hearts, we are sure, both yourself and lady will greet those that are dear to you. As our pastor you have always been found in the faithful discharge of the duties of your of fice, while you have also discharged, we are sure, other duties with the same zeal and per severance. We have to thank you, under God, for the present more enlightened position to which you have advanced the congregation by the encouragements held out to them; the plain gospel truths preached to them, and by the general government of the Church for which a resident minister was so long needed. For the young among us we also, in a very particular manner, have to render, in the same way, thanks for your unswerving attention to the upholding and advancement of the Sabbath School first established by the reverend pastor Henschel of blessed memory. Here our child ren are afforded an opportunity of having their minds developed and made acquainted with scriptural truths in a simple and familiar man ner so as to train them to understand the high er duties of the Christian religion taught in the Church. There are also those amongst us who have to thank you for your liberality and kindness so unhesitatingly exercised, both in private and public, ever since you have been here; for tha temporal care which you have studied to pro mote in every particular within your reach; and for your sympathy with the poor and suf fering which we cannot sufficiently portray so as to give a right estimate of them. ‘We mention these things, Reverend Sir, not as empty praises to fill up our address, but as the outpourings of grateful hearts whose every aspiration breathes forth a prayer to Heaven for your safe return to our island with renewed health and invigorated spirits. We cannot close our address without making gersonal reference to Mrs. Vater, to whom we eg you would tender our grateful acknowledg ments of her unwearied attention and zealous cooperation in the Church and Sunday School $Te CROLXE AV S (in the latter, to a degree that words are insuf ficient to estimate highly enough) as well as in private. Say to her that she too shall ever be remembhered by us and our children with grati tude and affection—that our humble prayers to tie Thurone of grace shall be offered for her too, that she micht be spared to you, and that both yoi aud her may pass on to a happy and glori ous old age under the shadow of the Almighty and, after this life, to live with Him in ever lasting happiness. We have the honour to subscribe ourselves Your most humble servants and faithful parishioners (Here follow 109 signatures.) St. Croix, Frederiksted, April 10th 1865. To the Editor of the St. Croix Avis. Sir The increased facility of intercourse between these sister Islands which the Steamer “Clara Rothe” affords, is likely to prove as favorable in a social, as it will doubtless be, in a Com mercial point of view: and in allusion to the former consideration, it is pleasing to record the very agreeable and sumptuous entertain ment, given on Monday eveming last at Mrs. George Phillips’, to a party of Ladies and Gen tlemen of this Town, by a number of sprightly and gentlemanly voung men of St. homas, who came over here to spend the ILlaster holi days. Mrs. Philips, wife of G. A Philips Esq. of that place, kindly consented to preside as Lady Patroness of the Ball, in which she ac guitted herself admirably, and with the efficient aid of her husband, largely contributed to the success of the evening’s entertainment. Noth ing could exceed the admirable order and re gularity with which every thing was arranged and carried out. "The Music was good, the dancing waslively and continuous, andappavently fully enjoyed by those who love to “trip it on the light fantastic toe,” while the “Creature Comforts” were abundant and of the most recherché order, At the usual hour supper was served in a style which reflected much eredit on the lady Hostess, Mrs. Gieorge DPhillips; the finest Champagne freely circulated, giving life and animation to the. wcene and mellowine the kindly feelings of the heart, which found ex pression in numerous loyal and patriotic foasts, after which dancing was resumed and continued into the small hours of the morning. Between four and five o’clock, the party finally separat ed much gratified by their erjoyment and hich ly pleased with the attention and gentlemanly urbanity of their entertainers, all no doubt, wishing for the occasional repetition of such so cial reuniens with their St. Thomas {riends.

From the Spectator March 18.) THE AMERICAN DEBATE. A great change has passed over the tone of the IHouse off Conimons upon Ameri can afluirs. Last year every Minister and aimost every fricud of peace dread ed an Americaa debate, certain that it would exacerbate the 11-teeling between the nations. The Southerners in the House coul:d not be restrained from pouring out epigrammatic abuse, the Ministry could not be tempted into the faintest expres sion of cordiality, the Northerners were {fuin to content themselves with demon strations which, however unanswerable, still excited their adversaries into still more reckless speech. The progress of the campaign has changed all that greatly for the better. 'The House has at last become convinced that the North must win, that tlie American Republic, whatever its vices or its foibles, 1s destined to be a grcat; nation, that a quarrel with any great na tion, despotic or democratie, is not an undertaking in which statesmen will light ly engage, and that it is the duty of all not blinded by prejudice to soothe away the jealousy and suspicion so unhappily awakened in the miuds of the governing class. With these convictions has come avother and even more effective one, that it becomes us when dealing with a pow erful State to adopt the tone which be fits equals, to listen as well as declaim, to give the adversary fair credit for mo tives, to malke all these allowances men so readily make for equals and with such difficulty for inferiors. The extent of the change was most clearly shown in the debate on Monday night. Mr. Fitzgerald, who opened it, and who under other cir cumstances would have satirized every thing American, from Bull Run to the

Page 3

last new slang phrase, abstained most pointedly from provocation. He wanted to know why Carada was not better de fended, but refused to assume that the American Government intended an inva sion, arguing that however friendly they might be the duty of England was to trust in her own strength rather than others’ forbearance. His leader, Mr. Dis raeli, not only followed on the same side, but ate up the words in which Zis chief had in the Lords appeared to menace war. Mr. Disraeli, though a Tory, has read history, and consequently always swayed slightly towards the Northern cause, but Sir James Fergusson, a furi ous Southerner, was as reticent as his friend. He placed the argument entirely upon our obligations towards the Cana dians, and though Lord Robert Cecil went farther, and announced his own be lief thata war was at hand, even he, Southerner by aristocratic bias even more than by sympathy, still made our duty to Canada the turning-point of his speech. e feared, or professed to fear, a desertion of Canada as buse as our de sertion of Denmark, called for dis'inet promises to the colony, and even de manded that those promises should be reduced to writing. Even the savage bitterness with which the subject always inspires him did not induce him to break throuch the reticence which was the ordre du jour of the House, and he vented it only on the Mivistry, whom he treated as if they had been a firm of altorneys sure 1o break any engagementnot record ed on paper. No other Southerner of mark even attempted to speak, and from first to last the assailants acknowledeed by their bearing i not their words that they had been deceived, that the North wotld succeed in the strugele, and that succeeding, it behoved them to speak and even think of the Union as of a first-class aund 1t might be not unfriendly Power. That change 1s a great one, but not so great as the one which has come over the Ministry. Mr. Cardwell, first spokes man for the Cabinet, has never indeed been Soathern. But an English Minister in hLis place expresses the collective sense of the Cabinet, and a year ago the Colo nial Secretary would not have been quite so frank. Nothing eould be more expli cit than the mode in which he repudia ted any idea of uuniriendliness between London and Washington, or more cordial than the tone in which e praised Mr. Adams, or more lofty thuu the spirit lin which he denounced war with the United States as a “calamity unequalled by any thirg the world has ever seen.” He was, however, cold in comparison with the Premier, who not only repudiated explicitly any idea of making war, but declared that this country viewed the increasing prosperity and power of the United States with pleasure—a declara tion to be accepted with some reserve. He affirmed pointedly that this Govern ment ‘had no complaint to make of that of the United States,” and that “they have acted in a fair and honourable man ner in all the questions which have arisen between us,” and that finally, he for himself held peace to be for the honour as well as for the interest of the two coun tries. Nothing could be more cordial than his tone, and bis explicit declara tions, which will do more to preserve peace than any menaces, were received on all sides with repeated manifestations of pleasure. It has always been clear that the Cabinet desired no war with the North, but it is now clear also that it be lieves the Norik ‘oust succeed, in the ST CREOLX AVL S, struggle, and that when it has succeeded there will be no such bitterness, no such irreconcilable grounds of difference as should in spite of the Interests of the world make a war inevitable. This Go vernment at all events wili avoid 1t unless attacked or menaced, and there is at least no chance of the recurrent Linglish dan ger, disputes carried on without fore thought till the Government drifts into a war it was all the while anxious to avoid. The rest of the debate was equally sa tisfactory. The members for Birmingham and Bradford, who represented the North ern feeling of the country, felt themselves masters of the positiou, and the feeling gave them unusual force and more than usaal moderation. They had no menaces to repudiate, no faise prophecies to ex plain away, ro seunse ot defeat to make them bitter; they had argued from the first that the war was prodaced by slavery and would end in its extinetion 3 that the North, although like England, slow, uu ready, and liable to defeat, was like Ene laud, unconquerably tenaclous, and would persevere to the end that with relief from the struggle would come relief trom the bitterness with which bystanders had been regarded, that when the smoke cleared away it would be possible for combatants and spectators alike to resume their ordi nary lives. They could speak therefore as men whose predictions had been tul filled, confidently, but without exultation. Mr. Forster made a great and, as the at tention of the House showed, a most eftee tive point by deseribine the manner in which the American Governmeut had pressed its much-talked-of elaims. There 1s a feeling abroad in the coantry that the tone of every demand, even when the de mand is not pressed, indicates hostilisy sappressed only by temporary circumstan ces. Mr. Forster appealed to the words employed, proved that even in the case of the Alabama’s depredations Me. Adams had demanded compensation in the most courteous style, had professed the willing ness of his Government to listen to every arcument; and had finished by stating that “there was no fair and equitable form of conventional arbitrament or reference to which the Ameriean Government would not be willine to submit”” Ia the matter of the American Laie Treaty, supposed to prove net only hostility in America, but a fixed design of attack, Mr. Forster showed that notice of the termination of that treaty had been accompanied by a written assurance that the necessity was temporary, that the United States “‘enter tained a wish no less earnest than hereto fore to preserve the most friendly relations with Great Britain,”” and that it was the fixed determination of the President to “prevent all attempts to invade British territory, whether byway of retaliation or otherwise.”” The mere publication of those words where they are sure to be read will of itself do much to calm down that surge of irritated apprehension which has so distarbed our affairs, and to stop that incessant quotation of mere incidents in negotiation as proofs of American hate. Mr. Bright was more incisive than the member for Bradford, but his speech was in his happiest vein. He proved that Canada did not desire the war, that Eng land did not desire the war, that Mr. Lin coln did not desire the war, and asked with powerfal irony who then did, or where was the ground of panic save in our own eonsciences, afflicted by the transactions of the past four years? The peroration, looking forward to the day “when the two great Commonwealths might march on abreast, parents and guardians of freedom and justice wheresoever their language shall be spoken and their power extend,” was one of the most eloquent ever uttered in the House, and the hearty cheers which broke forth as Mr. Bright sat down proved, if not the sympathy of the audi ence for the argument, at least their ad miration for the orator. It clearly moved Lord Palmerston, and probably elicited from him the declarations which have so greatly influenced the City. As a whole the country has rarely listened to a finer debate, or one better calculated to restore that respect for the Legislature which its recent lassitude, indifference, and inability to advanee have so greatly tended 1o di minish. With the House of Commons fairly aroused to the necessity of treating the Union as a great Power, but one change more is required to banish irrita tion —a grave acknowledgment by the governing classes on both sides that the daty of each, whether they purpose war or peace, 1s to maintain that grave respect which mikes coneiliation possible and war the final and not the first resort. A hittle of the tone which on Monday pervaded the Commons spread through society on both sides of the Atlantie, and the panic which is interrupting the progress of the whole world will disappear.
