‘A MAGNIFICENT ASSORTMENT

—~—-OF—

Ni:W GOODS:

THE VICTORIA TOWR.,

OF LORD DUFFERIN,

( Conclud: ad, )

They have been the ambassadors between the Eist and the West. the interpreters of civilizition, and its exigencies to the dwel- lers on the prairig, as well as the expon- ents to the white mun of the consideration justly due to the susceptibilities, the sen

sitive selfvrespect, the prejudices, the in- nate craving for justice of the Indian race.

(Applause,) In fact they have done for the colony what otherwise would have been left unaccomplished, and have introduced between the white population and the Red Man a traditional feeling of amity and friendship, which but for them it might have been impossible to establish. (Cheers) Nor can I pass by the humane, kindly ani considerate attention which has ever dis« tinguished the [Hudson Bay Company in its dealings with the native population,

(Applause.) But though giving due credit to these fortunate influences amongst the causes which are conducing to produce and preserve this fortunate result, the place of honour must be adjudged to that honourable and generous policy which his been pursued by successive Governments of Canada towards the Indian, and which at this moment is being superintended and carried out with so much tact, dis~ cretion, and ability by your present Lieut.~ (rovernor—(applause)— under which the extinction of the Indian title upon liberal terms has invariably been recognised as a necessary preliminary to the occupation of a single square yard of native territory. (Cheering.) But our Indian friends and neighbours are by no means the only alien communities in Manitoba, which demand the solicitude of the Government and ex: cite our sympathies and curiosity. In close proximity to Winnipeg, two other communities, the Mennonites and lce.- landers, starting from Opposite ends of Europe, without either concert or conmu- nication, have sought fresh homes within our territory, the one of Russiin extrac- tion, though German race, moved by a de- s.re to escape trom the obligations of a jaw which was repulsive to their conscience, the other bred amid the snows and ashes of an Arctic volcano by the hope of bettering their material condition. (Ap- plause,) Although [ have witnessed many sights to eanse me pleasure, dur. ing my various progresses through the Dominion, seldom have | beheld any spectacle more pregnant with prophecy, more fraught with promise of a successtui future than the Mennionite Settlement. (Applause.) When [ visited these inter- ing people they had only been two years in the Province,and yetin a long ride | took across many miles of prairie, which but yesterday was absolutely bare, desolate and untenanted, the home of the wolf, the badge, and the eagle, | passed village after village, homestead after homestead, tur. nished forth with all the conveniences and incidents of European comfort, and a scien- tific agriculture, while on the other side the road, corn fields already ripe for har- vest, and pastures populous with herds of Cattle stretched away to the horizon. (Great applause.) Even on the continent —the peculiar theatre of rapid change and progress—there has nowhere, | imagine, t ken place so mervellous a transformation —(Cheers)—and yet when in your name and in the name of the Queen of England, { bade these people welcome to their new homes, it was not the improvement in their material fortunes that pre occupied my thoughts. Glad as1 was to have the power of applotting them so ample a por- tion of our teeming soil—a soil which seems to blossom at a touch—(Cheering, — and which they were cultivating to such manifest advantage, | felt infinitely proud- er ia being able to throw over them the egis of the British constitution— (Loud cheering)—and ia bidding them freely share with us our unrivalled political insti- tutions, our untrammelled personal liberty. (Great cheering.) We ourselves are so accustomed to breathe the atmosphere of freedom that it scarcely occurs to us to consider and appreciate our advantages in this respect. It is only when we are re- minded by such incidents as that to which I refer, of the small extent of the world’s surface over which\the principles of Par- liamentary Government can be said to work smoothly and harmoniously, that we are led to consider the exceptional happi- ness of our position. (Applause.) Nor was my visit to the Icelandi¢ community less satisfactory than that to ovr Menonnite fellow subjects. From accidental circum

,Stances | have been long since led to take | an interest in the history and literature of

the Scandinavian race, and the kindness | once reveiyed at the hands of the !celandic people in their own island naturally in- duced me to take a deep interest in the welfare of this new emigration.

Nor comsidering the | dithculty which prevaiis in this country in | p-ocuring women servants, will the acces - humcred, though perhaps inexperienced, yet wiling Icelandic girls, anxious for employment, be found a disadvantage by the resident lidies of the country. Should the dispersion of these young people lead in Course of time to the formation of more intimate and tenderer ties than those of mere Deighborhood between the Canadian population and the Icelandic colony, | am safe in predicting that it will not prove a mitter of regret on the one side or the other. (Applause.) And, gentlemen, in r ferenca to this point [| cannot help re- mirking with satisfaction on the extent to waich a community of interests, the sense uf being engaged ina common undertak ing, the obvious degree in which the pros - perity of any ove man isa gain to his neighbors, has amalgamated the various ctions of the population of this Province originally so diverse in race, origin, and religion, into a patriotic, closely welded, aud united whole, (Applause) In no part of Canada have | found a better fee}. ing prevailing between all classes and sec. tons of the community. (Cheers ) It is ina great measure owing to this wides spread sentiment of brotherhood, that on a recent occasion great troubles had been averted, while at the present moment it is linding its crowning and most triumphant “Xpression in the establishment of a Un- versity under conditions which have been

[Great applause.] An achievement of this kind speakes volumes in favor of the wisdom, liberality, and the Christian charity of these devoted men by whom in this distant land the consciences of the population are led and enlightened, and long may be spared to see the effects of their exertions and magnanimous sacrifices in the g00d con- duct and grateful devotion of their ret pecs tive flocks. [Cheers.] Nor, | am happy to think, is this good-fellowship upon which I have so much cause to congratu~ late you, confined either within the limits of the Province, or even within those of the Dominion, Nothing struck ine more on my way through St. Paul's in the United States than the sympas thetic manner in which the inhabit~ ants of that. flourishing city alluded to the progress and prospects of Cas nada and the North. West—f[loud ap plause)—and on arriving here I was equals ly struck by finding even a more exuber- ant counterpart of those friendly senti, ments. ((rreat applause.) The reason is not far toseek. Quite independent.y oj the genial intercourse promoted by neigh, bourhood and the intergrowth of commer. cial relations, a bond of sympathy between the two populations is created by the con- sciousness that they are both engaged in an enterprise of world-wide impartance, that they are both organized corps in the ranks of humanity, and the wings of « great army marching in line on a level front, that they are both engaged in ad. vancing the standards of civilization west. wards, and that for manya year to come they will be associated in the task of con- verting the breadths ot prairie that streteh between them and the setting sun into one Vast paradise of international peace, of domestic happiness, and materia! pleny ty. (Great cheering.) Between two com« munities thus occupied it is impossible but that amity and loving kindness should be begotten. (Applause.) But, perhaps, it will be asked, how can I, who am the natural and official guardian of Canada’s virtue, mark with satisfaction such dan. gerously sentimental proclivities towards her seductive neighbour.
