Seward's Views in 1857. --Mr. Seward, the present Secretary of State, made a tour through Canada in 1857, and in a series of letters to the Albany Journal of that year, we find the following paragraphs, detailing the result of his observations: Perhaps my meditations on the political destinies of the region around me may be unsubstantial, but I will, nevertheless, confess and avow them.
