HENRY LONGWORTH, ESQ.

HX AMINER,

Tue DAILY NOVEMBER I, 1875.

Speech by Sir Stafford Northcote.

Sin Srarrorp Norrucore recently visited the Birmingham Reformatory Schools, on the occasion of the annual meeting, and moved the first resolution, eXpressing Ap-

mestic policy of the Government. The

principal part of his speech was devoted to.

a review of the financial position of the country now as contrasted with that which it occupied at the close of the Crimean war. He contended that. although the financial atrangements of the coming year were not likely to be satisfactory, yet, taking into ac- count the great increase of population and the large remission of taxation, the tax- payer was paying less by twenty-five mib lions per year than he would have been paying under similar circumstances.in 1856. He justified the acquisition of Cyprus, on the ground that it would enable us to teach

the Turkish community what reforms in

Ls h Soin tenet . 7 the shape of administration and good gov-

ernment were expected from them ; and he

asserted that, setting aside military expen- diture, the revenues of the island would pay the full charge of administration. He denied that, with the exception of Afghan- istan, there was any cloud on the horizon in regard to foreign affairs. The right hon. baronet went on to express his regret at the steady advance of Russia in the south o¢ Asia, which had rendered it necessary that her movements should be watched, and our demand to send an envoy to Cabul on the same terms as a Russian envoy was reason” able. Sir N. Chamberlain had, however, been refused admission; and there, at the present moment, the matter rested. As to what further might take place, he hoped the people of England would be content to trust the Government. They might rest assured that Her Majesty’s advisers were desirous and determined to preserve Eng- land from any affront that might be detri- menial to her prestige, and at the same time to do nothing that would be calculated to interfere with the full and complete execution of the Treaty of Berlin.

Canada as a Model.

The recent political crisis in Cauada has attracted the attention, and by the effec- tiveness of procedure won the approbation of people in the United States. The New York Herald says :—

‘*What most impresses Americans in the recent events in Canada is the directness of the control which the Canadian people exert over their Government. Our President has a fixed tenure of four years, and no change of majorities in one or both Houses of Congress ean shorten the duration of his authority. It is probable that President Hayes will tind a majority of both Houses against him at the middle of his term ; but instead of resigning, as Mackenzie has done, he will continue to hold office for a wearisome two years of mor- tifying obstruction, in which he will be unable to appoint any officer or carry any measure without the consent of his political adversar- ies. But in Canada the legislative and execu- tive departments are always in harmony, making the Government strong and giving free course to the will of the people. The ad- vaamtage of this system is that the whole efii- ciency of the Government can always be ex- erted for good or for evil and that no impedi- ment arrests or blocks the popular will. *

* * In this respect the Canadian system is certainly better than ours. The new Hous of Commons in the Dominion displaces its

redecessor at once, and the change of admin- istration which it enforces does not, in the present instance, at least, even await its as- sembling.. A ‘discredited public opinion has no longer any power ia the (rovernment.

Te first toast was, of course, the Queen —God bless her. Then followed the Presi- dent of the United States—briefly respond- ed to by the United States Consul, Mr. Dunn. In propesing the health of the Hon. J. ©. Pope, Hon. G. W. DeBlois said :

The high honor of proposing the health of the Minister of Marine and Fisheries has been imposed upon me, and it alfords me a great deal of pleasure to do so. I have known the Hon. Minister of Marine and Fisheries for many years ; and since I have known him I have had the highest respect for him. He has been a successful mer- chant. In enterprise he is second to none. He has been an energetic and successful shipbuilder. As a farmer he is a pattern to farmers, having done a great deal to im prove the stock-raising and other agricul- tural interests of tne Province. By his energy and ability he formed the nuc-

ileus of one of our largest and most thriving towns. The people of Sum- merside and Prince “County — several

representatives of which I am glad to see here to-night—must feel proud to se the Hon. Mr. Pope in the high and honor. able position he’ now holds. We have to thank Sir John McDonald—whose dis- cernment of character and ability is un- doubted—for choosing Mr. Pope to take charge of the important Department of Marine and Fisheries, and for promptly acknowledging our right to the inestimable

‘tates and Canada flourished so remarkably. | Mr. Pope concluded by reper that if 0 honored by a banquet sucn as the pi esent- " such as a Prince might feel himself hampered by—was a great gratification a wae acknowledgment Ol his political ee and a sufficient equivalent for twenty years | of abuse.

The next toast and the Liberal Conservative Party— pro- posed by Donald Ferguson, Esq., who said ;

{fool very great pride and pleasure im proposing the health of the honored chief- tain of the Liberal Conservative Party. In doing so itis not necessary to say a great deal. The record of Sir John McDonald asa public man, is before this country, and the high testimonials he has received ; and the high position he has won, andthe good ser- vices he hasrendered his country since heen- tered Parliament thirty years ago, are known to allmen. Before he entered the politicnl arena Old Canada was divided and distracted.

{wo great races straggled for the mastery, Sir John McDonald and Sir George Cartier joined hands and consummated a union. Sir Jphn McDonald was undoubtedly the leader in the great struggle which ended in the union of all the British Colonies in America and in the formation of the great Dominion of Canada. The first political sympathy I ever had was in the great movement of which Sir John A. MeDonald was the leader—to make of the scattered Colonies of British America a nation. For that service Sir John is entitled to the thanks of all Canadians. P. E. Island, too, owes much to SirJohn McDonald. iad a mean spirit been at the helm of power 1} is not probable that the Liberal Conserva- tives of this Island would have been able to negotiate the Better Terms and obtain for this Province $25,000 a year for all time to come. Sir John MeDonald also was the first to offer to this Island representation in the Cabinet, and to him we are indebted for the rostoration of the right which was taken away by Mr. McKenzie.

also that of the great Liberal Conservative Party he leads. The toast was enthusiastically received. E. J. Hodgson responded—spiritedly and very eloquently. The following honored :— The Senate of Canada—proposed by the Hon, John Lefurgy, and responded to by Senator Haviland. The Commons of Canada—proposed by John Caven, Esq., and responded to by Hon. F. Brecken. Lord Dufferiu—proposed by Senator Montgomery—responded to by A. C. Mac- donald, Esq., M. P. The Bar—proposed by George Peake, Esq.,—responded to by Neil Macleod, Esq. The Press—proposed by Alexander Mac- kinnon, Esq.,—responded to by J. H. Fletcher, Esq. The Ladies, proposed by Mr. Perey Pope, responded to by Messrs. G. Walter Deblois, Finley MacNeill and John Bradley. Songs were well sung by J. Caven, A. Hermans, and A. Mackinnon, Esq. Some difficulty was experienced in find- ing seats for all the guests; but, on the

The toast was drank with great enthusi- asm and all the honors.

In response Mr. Pope said he wished he possessed the eloquence of his Hon. col- league that he might, in fitting terms, re- spond to the toast and thank his friends for the magnificent manner in which they had honored him. It was certainly very flatter- ing to him to see present on this occasion) so many friends, not only from Charlotte- town and Queen’s County, but from Prince and King’s Counties as well. Such asplen- | did expression of esteem on the part of his | fellow-countrymen was sufficient compensa- ,tion for the abuse with which he had been beset ever since he entered public life. Mr. | Pope then briefly reviewed the political | \history of Canada for the past five sane pointing out the fraudulent means taken to overthrow Sir John McDonald, the corrup- tion, hypocrisy aud incapacity of the Mc- Kenzie Government, and showing the|
