Police of the PaciGc.-It will be seen, from the following, that England is extend- ing that vigilant care which has hitherto lord ed over the Atlantic, to the Pacific. She claims the right of visitation, or search, on the preteXt of protecting against the slave trade, in the Atlantic. She will next assert that it is indispensable to exert the same right over the Pacific, to protect the whale trade from the avarce and cruelty of the Ameri- cans. Having taken possession of, or under her protection, all the important and com manding islands of the Pacific, it appears that England Is about to extend her game-laws to the great oceans of the whale! They are to be protected ''with as much care and jealousy as the best game-preserveo in Englandl The Standard, the organ of the British Government says:

 "Whalc Fishery in Me Pdcifc.-We have frequently called attention to the surprising circumstance of this great trade being almost monopolized by the ship owners of the United States; and 1t cannot be repeated too often, that they employ $50 ships, (193,000 tons,) and l6,000 men. Nor is it merely confined to this. The shallows which sur round our newly adopted settlements of New Zealand are the breeding grounds of the fish :; which should be preserved with as much care and jealousy as the best game-preserve in Great Britain. No fisherman of one nation should be allowed to kill whale there but this is the favorite resort of vessels from Ame- rca, Bremen, Hamburgh, and Havre. It is impossible to too strongly impress upon the board of trade, upon the Lords of the Admi- ralty, the importance of protecting 1t. The system pursued is to kill the young whale, called the calf; the affection of the mother, or cow-whale, is so great that she never leaves the spot-killing her calf is the certain capture of the mother. The males, or bull whales, never enter these breeding grounds The practice of all the in-shore parties iil New Zealand, is the system of cutting up the goose for the golden eggs It is obvious that Cooks Straits must in short time, become the great depot of an English marine popula- tion The sending vessels out from Europe

 or the United States, in ballast, to kill tn,

 whale of the Pacific, is perfect waste. It i

 at Cooks Straits, that whale ships should b

 established, if not built. They should 2, away from the coasts to find their game, an return to Wellingtop or Nelson, to ship thei

 oil and bone Common sense points thi

 out; and at that spot there is full employ ment for 10000 British seamen, preservin the female whale and it's young on thei breeding grounds"

 We have again and again adverted to tn

 British policy, which aims at the exclusio

 of the United States from haven in the Pa cific, where our ships may repair, or refit, O ,hta;,, e,,orI.o, rT'Lo &a,a.:..- ,...I. ,.

 England holds possession of the Columbia

 the only portion of our territory on the Pa

 cifc, where our people can establish them

 selves, so as to afford near support to ou

 commerce and navigation in that ocean

 shows that she dreads the growth of our na val power, and is resolved to stop at nothn , to arrestit. The opening of the article of tn

 Standard, which proposes to extend Brltls

 philanthropy to the protection of the whal fishery, indicates the real source of this ne,

 indication of British tenderness. < H canno

 might endanger the despotism of her aristc
