JANUARY 27 1886.

Thoughts on Cagada.

In olden times, the Bards spent their time in singing the praises of their native country. In this practical age, it is hard to “ catch the inspiration of the happy long ago,” but it is nevertheless the duty of every man to love and to be loyal to his country and to sound her praises too, when she is deserving of them.

Just three cevturies and a half ago, Cartier, of St. Maloes, sailod up the St. Lawreuce for the first time, took possession of the territory and wintered in the country. Less than three cen- turies ago came the real pioneers of Canada ia the person of Samuel de Champlain, a French naval officer who was boro in the west of France, and his little band of soldiers and traders. They landed on a small island at the mouth of the St. Croix River. This little band of white mea, led by the courageous and adveaturous Champlain, after great hardships and misfortunes, succeeded in effecting a settiement, and thus laid the foundation of what has since become @ great and magnificent couniry—a country of which every true Cavadian feels proud. At that time, what was aflerwards kuown by the pames of the several Provinces, was a hewling wildersess, through which roamed a people as savage and uptame- able as the bears and the foxes. Along the shores, and on the banks of the rivers and lakes were to be seen their rude wigwams. River and lake were alike undisturbed by the hand or the art of man, save by the tiny paddle as the red- mao glided along over their surface iu his little bark canoe,

place sinee then. What do we see to- day? A vast Dominion stretching from the Atiantic to the Pacific Ocean, from the United States to the North Pole. Quebec, with a territory greater than France ; Ootario, with an area about the same as Spain; Nova Scotia in size half as large again as Mo"and; New Bribs«

wick with an area nearly twice that of Denmark; Manitoba with an area the size of Den- mark; British Columbia, with an

area about the size of Austria; Prince Edward Island, with more persons on jt to the square mile than either Russia, Norway or Sweden;—these, together with the great Northwest Territories, compose one grand Dominion — the brightest jewel in the British Crown.

We, as Uauadians, have good reason to feel proud of our country, We have our ships, our churches, our schools, a free press, free land avd equal rights. But while it is our duty to appreciate the present, we must not forget the past. Canada’s history, by a Canadian, is still unwritten. No MacAulay or Ban- croft has yet arisen in our midst. There is however no lack of material for a history that could be made as interesting as aromance, ‘he trials and hardships of the early settlers, the imprudent ex- pulsion of the Acadians, the conflicts between the English and the French, the invasion by a body of continental troops in 1775, the insurrection of 1837 and 1838, the confederation of the several provinces, the rebellions in the North- west, the Indian massacres,—these and a thousand other incidents in the ex- perience of our country would makea history more thrilling, interestiag and readable than any of the novels of our times.

Not only is Canada’s past interesting

and instructive. There is a still more interesting future ia store for her.

Though occupying already a bigh pesi- tion, there is, we believe, a still higher place, awaitiog her among the nations of the earth. With her industries built up and encouraged, with her great national highway ‘ully completed aud equipped, with equitable trade relations with her neighbors across the border, with right- eous laws and wise and patriotic men to ladmipister them, there is nothing in the 'way of her becoming ove of the most | prosperous and influential countries ou | the face of the globe.

The Riel Question.

Tue Hon. Mr. Chapleau’s address to

! i |

='his constitueuts at Terrebonne, on the

(20th inst., was a great oratorical effort ‘anda decided success. It is reported ‘that thirteen Mayors or heads of parishes ‘iu the County have signed a memorial, ‘expressing approval of the statesmab- like course he adupted with respect to | Riel. | After Mr. Chapleauhad spoken, Hon. ‘J. S. D. Thompson made a few remarks, ‘in the course of which he gave utterance ‘to the followiog right aud patriotic sen- timent :-— ‘6 hope that the hour is far off when, in ‘the exercise of the prerogatives of justice lor mercy, any man's race or religion can iweigh a feather in the scale. Iknow at \least that the day can only come after the members who sit in the Osabinet to-day

have left their places. They areas joalous as you are of the rights and interests of every eection of the country. The people from whom I come know well the value of their rights under the constitution, and they know that if your rights are infringed ore day theirs may be overridden the next. When your nationality is unjustly treated my will be threatened. When your reli- gious rights are in danger mine is no longer safe, but, in the meantime, | feel sure you will, on calm reflection, agree with me that the firm and fearless enforcement of the law is the only guarantee that any of us. can have for our liberties, and that neither life nor property can be safe in this Domin- ion if the Government be afraid to carry the law into effect against an offender of any race or creed.” (Applause. )

Editorial Notes.

~

— According to the special correspond- ent of the Toronto Mail, there is no danger of an Indian uprising in the Northwest. He is at Fort McLeod, in the very midst of the supposed disaffected Indians, near the very spot where, ii there should be any trouble, an outbreak would occur, aod he says be never hears the question of Indian grievances mentioned, let alone discussed, avd no reference whatever made to any antici- pated uprising unless under process of interview. He also says that consensus of opinion amongst the settlers is, there is no more danger of an outbreak than there ever was, though it is admitted that so mavy armed, idie and unemp oyed Indians, among whom must neces arily be some bad ones, cannot be otherwise than a standing menace, in a sense, to the peace of the eonntry.

—Dr. Talmage discoursed last Sunday forenoon, in his Tabernacle at Brooklyn, on Clandestine Marriages and Escapades. The text was, “Stolen waters are sweet, and bread takeo ia secret is pleasant: but he knoweth not that the dead are there.” He said the motives of modern society must be recoastructed on the sub- ject of the marriage institution. This great practical sermon will appear in ‘Tue Examiner in the course of a tew days.

—The Montreal Gazette says:

“It is on the production of such men as Dr. Schurman, rather than on the number or salaries of their professors, that our colleges ought to base their reputation.”

Professor Schurman received the ground work of his education in our common schools, and at Prince of Wales College.

—The Moncton TZimes hopes that ‘“ within a few years we shall be able to reach the ga'den of Canada by a sub- marine railway open at all seasons of the year.”
