A question of this magnitude should be approached free from political or party bias. When the matter of Con!cder- atioa was under discussion last Session the idea was expressed, and very generally aequiesecd in, that united with only the Maritime Provinces, we would be absorbed, and quotations from speeches of the Pro- | vineial Secretary of Nova Scotia, and others |as to the absorbtion of that Province in case ‘of Union with Canada were adduced to |} warrant the opinion.

Before I proceed to the subject of my lecture, you will allow me to observe that it is not only because [ am at home here that it may be particularly proper for me to talk freely, as among friends, but also because neeessity, be productive of no benefit, Lam/{ am at present in Ireland by the appoint | reading a sporting journal ora police gazette, “, happy to covsole myself by the reflection, | mept ot his Excellency our Governor-General, | Ue has a ready, rowdy sort of rhetoric, and Lord Monck, who draws his title of Baron of Ballytrannon irom this neighbourhood, and | Who is interested as a proprietor in Wexford land Wicklow. Ls Excellency was pleased | to give me for associates a dignified Protes- tant clergyman, and another Iris: Catholic jlayman, a meritorious publie officer of a | quarter of a century's stancing in the civi! service of Canada. I wish some of your | bigots on both sides, Catholic bigots or Pro- testant bigots, who profess to believe that men of different ereeds cannot act cordially and confidentially together in the public ser- vice, would only condescend to consider how we contrive to do so, without sacrificing prin- ciple on either side, in/the country L come from. But I feel that [ must avoid such re- fleetions for fear of getting into a serape (laughter). I know this is a land of philip- pics, and that the immense vituperative resources of the language are nowhere better understood (laughter). I therefore close this reference to our appointment by saying that it was with great satisfaction [ felt myself called upon to represent the first province of the Britisao Empire at the opening of the In- ternational Exhibition, in that beautiful and beloved city, which must still be the metro- polis of the [rishman’s heart, in whatever sile or retail, in spirituous liquors; some- ' times a lawyer, sometimes wn editor. He is always ready with his money subscription to the charch, but seldom goes to Church. He 1" lies up on Sunday, after the toils of the week, oe is never at a loss, when called on, to propose or second a resolution. He has heard of * Philips, Curran, Grattan, and Emmet”— this is the order in which he arranges their names—an order which shows his profound knowledge of the men; he is particularly savage on England, and grows quite pathetic, unprepared as he is, at the mere mention of the told land.”’ A fair share of mother wit — sufficient stock of spending money, anda vast deal of brass—complete the equipment of this very active, very importact, avd much! courted individual. The social life of whieh this species of politician is the public and ex- ternal representative has features hardly less repulsive. The continental seatterment of the emgration breaks up all family ties, Youth is without diffidence, and age without following. The prevailing presumption, even as to matters of judgment, is against the old and in favor of the young. I do not say, Sir, that this is the universal rale; [ have met as well-ordered [rish families in the Un:ted States as there are in Ireland; I bave met as worthy meo and as amiable wo- men in private life; but I say the rule is generally as L have stated it, and the true reading of the commandment there would be, **Parents, obey your children, that your days quarter of the world he may reside.

The intimate relations of Ireland and Norta Ame- rica, in this middle period of the century— the interests, the action, and reaction which have already eprang out of those relations— are subjects of very real, | was going to say very urgent, consideration to every publicist throughout these kingdoms. Let uo man think, when he has heard the last sub from the ship’s side—when he has seen the last glimpse of the emigrant ship itself—that he vas beard the last, or possibly seen the last, of that living load of passion, affection, hat- red, remembrance, prejudice, and speculation, aid power—strooger than distance, stronger tuan every influence but God's or death’s — which bas just launched itself out in the At- antic. The Atlantic may prove the grave toa sinall per centage of those out-going myriads ; but su sure as steam has narrowed 16 to, at most, a fortnigitly ferry, su sure the future of these myriads 1s destined, within our own time, to play an important part, directly or lands they leave, us well as the fate of the lands they sail for. The transier of a third vt @ million of productive people a year— mostly adults—trom old kingdoms to new republics, from a monarchy to a democracy, 13 a fact in the history of our times beiore which most other things that are called poli- tics sink into insignificance, whether regarded in their caases or in their copsequences. Is there not a balance of production as well as & balance of power? Is there not a war of idsas in the world—a war of which.our wide- spread language has lung been the battlefield —uas well as dynastic wars and civil wars? (cheers). My object, however, is not so much tu discuss the great general auestion of the economy of emigration as to lay before my fellow-townsmen, and 80 many of my feilow-countrymea as may do me the honur to read the report of what | have to say, the true position vf our countrymen by birth, both in Republican and in British America. iluwever it may conflict with any existing theory, | must set out with the plain state- ment of this fact — which every one. who you of the public general position of the Irish in America, why it is that [ am not, or ever was satisfied with that®position, Very early I perceived that herding together in great cities, running up debts with storemen in idle spells, and squandering their wages when flash of cash, was destroying our peo- ple. L endeavoured to set on foet in 1855, at the Buffalo Convention, a plan for the sys- t tematic settlement of our people in the in'and } States anu in Canada; but, though I still be- | lieve it was a good plan, it failed for want of id support, and the next year I voluntarily transferred my housebold gods to the valley of the St. Lawrence. Loud and fierce was the ; outery of the demagogues at this desertion, as they were pleased to callit. They did not hesitate tu fling foul phrases and ribald reproaches after me. I was no Irishman— no freeman—because I preferred an orderly ; British Provinee in which to live, and a TE woral city like Montreal in which to bring te up my children, They called me traitor! renegade! apostate! but I tell them from this spot—those of them who still survive to hear me—I tell them in your presence, my fellow-townsmen, who have of ail others most closely watched my course, that [ have done more in ten years, by a steady, constita tional line of public conduct; by blending the warm Irish impuieee (which I shall only cease to feel when | cease to live) with rational and lawful public objects; that L have done more, bumble as [ am, to conquer back the respect of intelligent men in Great Britain i and America for tae Lrish name, than any { half hundred of the demagogues put together, (Cheers). Forgive me, Sir, | did not intend this; but having now meationed my removal to Canada, you will expect me to say some- thing of the position of our countrymen in that and the adjoining Provinces. British America—if we speak of the whole region from Wewfoundland to Vancouver — includ- ing the vast territories held by the Hadson's i Bay Company, covers about one-third of the Continent ; it is, in extent, greater than the 1 Republican States, greater than all Europe 1] —or, more statistically, it is about 3,000 miles from sea to sea, and 1,600 from the | American frontier to the Pule—inelading : about 4,000,000 of square miles.
