Speaking in 1864. ‘at ('0lnpton, Quebec. about the terms or the then lately proposed Canadian Cpn- federation, the Hon. D'Arcy McGee. one oi the Fathers of Confederation, said: "We oiler each other special advantages in detail.' The Marl- tilne Provinces give its (of the Pp per Provinces) a right of way autl free out-Ports for live months out at every year. We give them what hey need. direct communication with Canada all Fhis connection, it they do not get hrough Canada they must ultim- stely get through the United States;
