I am here at all events advocating the ratificazion of the Treaty. and. I may say, notwithstanding the taunts of the hon. :th.onoppo'uo. that 1 w:s chosen the for that position, certainly because I wasa Canadi n and presu aibly be ssuse I was a member of the Canadian G»verpâ€" ment, but my commission was given to me as a British subject, as it was to Sir Stiaf ford Nortboeote and o h r membe s ie Commission. 1 went to Washin;ton as a Pleni,otentiary, a« Her Majesty‘s servant, and was boun.d by Her Majesty‘s instruc. tions, and 1 woulid have been guilly 0‘ dereliction of duty it I had not carried out those instructions _ And, sir, when 1 heartily joined under the circumstance in every word of th:t Treaty with the exception of the Fishery Articles, and when | obtained leare to have inse tâ€"d in that Ireaty a reserration to the Governâ€" ment and the people of C:n ids of the full right to accept or refuse that portion of wnm as to my cours» And 1 did not heâ€"itate to state 'rllhtnuohd not been put in. would have taken the course of resignâ€" ing my commisien.

Bat [ say that this Treaty which has gone through so many difficulties and danger , if it is carried into effect, removes almost all possibility of war. 1f there was an irritating cause of nab gotien in this world. No future question can ever ariso that will cause as groat irri tation as the escape of the Al.bama did. and if they could be got to;foo to leave such a matier to the pawe‘ul arbitrament A s frienily power, waat future cause of quarre} can .n the imagination of man arise that will not beair the same vaâ€" silic solution tiat is sought for in tlis. 1 believre th.t that Treaty is an epoch in the history of civmilizat.on, that it will set «n example to the wide world that must be followed, ani with the growth of the Anglo Saxon family, and with the %flt f that mighty nation t > the south of us, 1 believe thit that principle will be advocated and adopter as the sole principle of s ttlement of diferences 2ifi He had listened with a great deal of interest and he might say with a wlof pleasure, to the hon ie ‘s speech, as" it had unfolded :yfilly his own .views, although they id not harmonize with his (Mr. Mackenâ€" we‘s}or with: thqse who actel with Lim politically. The hov. gen‘iemin had diferences and all their quarrels upon a basis, all is to be frustrated and by the Canadian people, beâ€" cause "’L""' not got the value of their fish for ten years (cheers). It has been said by the honorable gentleman on his left (Mr. Howe), in his speech to the Young Men‘s Christian Assoc:ation, that ‘Wflcfl the interests of Canada. if had sacrificed the interests of Canada, what sacrilice had she not made herself in the cause of jewe. . Has been no Canadian representative on the Commission at Washington. â€" He (Mr. Mackenzie) could not see the difference between j“fi:“ ing by default, and the hon. gent mgln‘gnlm t and alâ€" lowing a wrong judgment to be entered on record. He protested against the remarks of the Minister of ‘Justica, thst it was asserted at Washington that rejectio . of a second mnmfit résult in war, as he considgred statement was made more as a threat in order to secure the ac. ceptance of the treaty. He thought that there was not the slightest danger of any trouble arising out of the questions at issue between Canada and the United States â€" He considered that the statement of the hon. gentleman that if certain things had happened he would not have signed the treaty, and mide him perâ€" sonally nm’to Canada, With respect to trocity in commercial matters, the ”Won apâ€" peared to have yjelded as s00n as request. ed by the Amer.c:p Commissioners. â€"He any other article of commerce. He hid read that the New Rrunswick Legisiature was unanimously opposed to the treaty, as its effect, if passed, would be the destrucâ€" g:: of their fisheries to ;lront extent. hon. gentlemin had called attention to what might have happened if there had stated that the coursé that theyâ€"the Oppositionâ€"had pursued was one dictated by some power not present in this House. He regretted this statement, because they derired to discuss the Treaty on its merits, although disposed to condemn the action of the hon. femlo‘mn .opposite and his associates. He might inform the House that within a few days of the ratification of the Treaty, before a single newspaper in the country had â€" spoken â€" upon it, he delivered a speech 10 which the honorable gentleman had reforred, nd the member for West Durham had also expressed his views on the subject about tfie same time; and those views ‘ere in entire harmony with the views he had heard expressed evepsince, and with the views ot the entire press of the country. They had the honor of leading public sentiment in this matter, in that lirection that they kelieved honestly to be Jue to a patriotic feeling for Canazia as their country. He was n‘ blind to the «dvantages that were to be derived from a sacrifice, and he would sacrifice a good denl for the inte e<ts of peace. He be lieved that he was no friend to his country who did not desire to suit his public poliecy in order to secure that amity and friendâ€" ship that ought to prevail: among nations , and under these circumstances, itwas pe= culiarly desirable, forming as we dil in this colony one of the great f.amilies of the British race, that we should endeavor by*every.rea: 0 :al la and just means to give eifec: to the measures of the Mothâ€"r Country, in seeking to sacuro that amity with that other greit branc‘i of the British family on this continent. We‘ believe, however, thit there was a limit beyond which we ought not to go. He did no: believe that national health, nation«l glory, and national pride were always to be produced by making sacrifices to what is ju.ul{ called the peace at anyâ€"price party. It was manifest that if we on this continent, hemmed in as we were by the mb of the United States, whose po itical policy teen singularly aggres sive, yielded up merely for the sake of soâ€" calle1 perce «dvantage thit we pos»ssed withh our terr tory, it would sson become #/fue:t on how far it would be possible to Ryrsue thit policy and reâ€" tain any trace of Mytional life and public spirit. The hon. lemsn said that he went to Washin.ton mimply as a Briton, Vrat it w s quite tru= w is a prem.nent Canadian, and, no do‘ t that‘ had something to d> with offern8g him the position. He (Mr. Mackenzie} thouzht frm the evidence before the House thit it had everything to do with it.. We knew that the matter was submitted by the hon. gentlemin to his colleagues, and by them :rpmod; that he went to Washington, though this House was in session ; that he here announced his appointm»nt ; and that he practically: solicited leave from the [Jouse to proceed there as the repreâ€" sentative of C nada. This House afforded hm every indulgence, and that was scarcely in accordance with the statement he had venture! tomght, thit he knew he weuld not ges :air.play. Upon the reâ€" presentations of the hon. ?entleman last session, the resolutions of the member for Sherbrooke were not pressed. He believed thit if they had been pressed ths House would not have refused wl adopt them ; but the House accepting the bon. gentliemin‘s declaration that he went there as their representative, they treited . him with that maigznanimity that he (Mr.: Mackenzie) had sail then and said now was their proper course . He had no ‘ doubt that if tao:e resolutions had been : pressed by the hon. member for Sherâ€" brooke, it might have resulted in someâ€" thing more favorable for this country thin what was found afterwards to be the case | He tound also, from the public accounts, that this country had paid the expenses of the hon. gentlem in at Washiny ton as the Can:diin representative, and it would not do now, in the face of those tacts, to ssert that ha went there entirel, independent, an! thi:t he maintained a positiou hee as a member of this House entirely independent of his connection with «hat..Comaniiion. . THhese remarks had beenu foreed"Yrom him {(Mr Macken me}] by the course of the hou gen:lem: n Hon SirJOHN MACDUNALD said the papers only showed that the last of a series of meetings was held on the 25th 0‘ M«irch, whereas the offer was made at an early meeting. Hon, Mr. MACKENZ & said the excuse mu«de by the h n. geatlemen was set aside by the dates, and every one must see "the sm 11 effect that the legiâ€"l:tion would h«ve on th« minds of the people of the United =tates. He had pointed o t at the time that it was folly to suppose that the imposition of a tax of $200.000 %n Americ.n products would frighten 40,000,â€" UVO0 ot people into reciprocity. ‘It was too late in the the »ay to cliim tihhnt, but for the action of this House, the result desired by the country would have been obtained, tor the hon gentleman must hive known well everythiny that transpired at Ottawa. \gain we were to be told to be thankful. because we still had the Husson‘s Bay as a reserve, »and that in the course of 12 years we wouli find good fish there ; but we had Hudson‘s Bay betore. Hon. genâ€" tleman had asse ted that those wh> were chiefly interested in the fisheries were very willing that the Treaty should take effect. He did not know ho« the hon. {ehtlemon from the Lower Provinces might vote, but he knew how one of the Local Legislatures hid acted, a=n i that a prominent member bad mfia th» strongest statements, and be qudfl@id iigures from a statement preâ€" pared by the Minister ol Maine showing how great had bean: the growth of ‘the fisheri~s under the system commenced in 170. The growth was in consequence of our retaining possession and control of the fisheries in our own hands, and not allowing the Americans to ruin them.. He also quoted from a speech of a member of the New Brunswick Government to shew the strong feelings thit pervaded the Province, and said that the Lieut. Gov. ernor‘s speech itself was in the stronget terms in cordemnation of the Treaty He nextcalled attention to a statement of the Premier regarding the navigation of the St. Lawren:e. It was true that while the words literally sought to be construed as giving Americans no control over the canals, the hon. Premier would sbon find if he refused them the use of those works th t he would be told to do so in such a message as had f:ightened the Commisâ€" sioners last year, and we would be told that we had practically annulled the treaty Lae Americans would again set their hearts on securing the use of the canals, and havâ€" ing set thoir hearts on anything seemed to be ground ensugh for the British Comâ€" missioners to grant them nnythi:g they desire. He maintained thit Canada had the best of claims to the site of the St. Clair flits can«l, and stated that one of the highest United States engineering auâ€" thori:ies had ‘come to the same conclu sion. Respecting ‘his speech about the navigation of Lake Michigan to which Sir John had referred, he stated that he still held the opinion that we were as much entitled to the navigation of Lake Michiâ€" gan as we are to that of Lake Huron and Georgian Biy. We never.claimed we could exclude the Americans from the Georgian Bay, but they had taken the pains to esâ€" tablish th:ir ‘control over the Straits of Mickiniw by erectiag a Custom House there and charging tolis on Canadian vesâ€" sels. He could not see any difference in the position between the Mackinaw Straits and the St. Lawrence between Cornwall and Montreal. He did not believe that the Commissioners at the time had made provision respecting the Alibama claims or knew anything about the Russian treaty with England on the subject. ‘The Preâ€" mier had omitted to tell the House why the Commisgioners had neglected to secure to British subjects the navigation of tbo‘ Columbia riverâ€"a most important itemâ€" as that river was situated in exactly the same ition as the St. Lawrence, but m":'bj.m had no right to use it beâ€" cause its ‘mouth was in the United States territory. It had. not been his intention to speak at all that evening, as it was the intention of his friends to place on record their views on this subject, and he thereâ€" fore deferred further remark until the second reading. The Premier had referred rather severely to the m;on:gt.od by some of the leadi C iu the Province. Before this matter closed, perhaps, he (Mr. ) would show to the lrmhaw different were the views which the governmental journals expressâ€" ei at the time the Treaty was negotiited from the opinions they now put forth. He [Mr. Mmanw his status as & anadian and British subject, and he was willing to accept his share of the reâ€" sponsibility of all Imperial transactions ; but he was not willing that an Imperial Hon. Mr. MACKENZIE denied that this had been contended for, or at any rate the contention wis very mild, for the resoluâ€" tion at the cl ss admitted th1it the claims were worth very little, by the British Com missioners stating that they would not further urge the settlement of the claim, especially as thâ€"y were of ‘a constructive and inferential character. If they were of a constructive charscter he did not think .t did much crediEto the hon. genâ€" tleman representin€ a who had so constructed,them (liughter).. The hon gentleman had stated that the action 0: the House on the tariff last year had pre vented him from impressing on the Ameâ€" ricans whit they ought to do in regard to reciprocity, caliing it a * fatal vote." It was very gnlilying to see that the Minis ter of Finance had accepted that reversal of his policy by the House, that . the Govâ€" ernment endorsed it, and passed it on to its next stage, and yet the leader of the Govern ne: t now cast reflections on the House and his colleagues for the adoption of this policy. The hon. geutleman sa‘d thit this cauâ€"ed the difficulty at Washing: ton, whereas they knew that that vote passe.] on the 22nd of March, whereas the American Commissioners made the offer t> «llo w certain articles to go in free on the 25th of March. | Hon. Nir JOMN A. MACDONALD said they did not know anything of the kind. Hon. Mr. M \CKENZIE maintained that the papers showed the date. _ _ thought the free navigation of the St. Lawrence had taken a strong weapron out of the h nds of Canada, as also the giving up of the fisheries. and both without a consideration. Judging from the past, he had no confidence in the Commission to be appointed to value the fisheries. All knew the loss this oo;:'n‘tfi nut’_t.ainod through the ignorance or ility of those who were appointed by the English Govâ€" ernment to negotiate our boundariesâ€" how the half of New Brunswick was swépt away and given to the State of Maine. He was now pointing out what would he believed be the inevitable result of the negociations. I was always perfectly sale for the American Government to make deminds. As the hon. gentlemin opposite had said their hearts wereset on obtaining accoss to the st. Lawrence, and therefore he gave it away. Well they would set their hearts on something else within a year they were constantly setting their bhearts and their envious eyes on some portion of our territory, and if gentlemen like the hon. gentleman opposite were to be Com. missioners, he feared they would obtain whit they wanted in nrrd to the so called c »mpensation for the fisheries. He «cknowledged freely thit there was a large bod{ of public men in the United State would scorn to adopt the meanness of that class who had urged the conseâ€" quential damages, and who would sâ€"orn to take advantage of any other country in th s way, but they knew that to agreat extent ths mob goverued public opinion in that country, They knew that the elections of the Preâ€"ident exercised such an influence on public opinion, that the ‘authorities sometimes could not afftord to do what was right for fear it should re ult adversely to themselves and their party. _ If he was not mistaken a member of the lmE;:‘al Government stated in the House of 8 that this was one of the reasons why the Fenian claims could not be insisted on. He recollected in the discussion before the hon. gentleman left for Washington, that he (Mackenzie) insisted that the Fenian claims could not be conside:red under the order of reference, and the Minister of Finance then maintailned thit that order did cover the cliuims, yet now it s emâ€" ed to ba admlited that they were not covered., ‘ Hon. Sir FRANCIS HINCKSâ€"The Bri tish Commissioners conten ied thit they were.

And yet the hon. Premier asked the House to accept the money conâ€" sideration, and reproached him because he ventured to object to that principle How e wy it was to refer to the denunciaâ€" tion which the Government had it. elt very properly bhurlel against all money considerations in regard to great political objects, Tha Government, in their note of the 28th July, saw that the principle of money payment for the cession of terriâ€" torial rights had ever been most repugnan to the feelings of the Canudiin g)oople Now, the hon. gâ€"ntleman and his col leagues in th‘s despatch spoke of our ceding territorial rights, but when preâ€" senting his argument here in another place, he denied that any territorial rights were ceded at all, and he asked the House at any rate to accept moncy for what was sonceded. ‘The hbon. gentlemin said in effectâ€"**You have been paid for the Fenian claims; you are to ~get some assistance in the shape of an Imperial enâ€" dorsement to build this great Pacific rail way. _ ‘There is an opportunity for you! and if you behave yourself rmperly, you may evon get the loan of £1,400,000, which was guaranteed to fortifications, applied to railway purposes also, as there is no more need of fortification, and the danger of trouble arising between England and the United States is at an end. Well, if there was no more need of forti fications and defensive ‘preparations, was the House ‘to have no militia estimates this year? (hear, hear]. . Wasâ€"the hon gentleman opposite, the Minister of Miâ€" litia, to forbear purct asing the equipments and supplies necessary to keep 40,000 soldiers in the field? : Was he to disband this army, and spend no more money in maintaining these soldiers in a state of efficiency 1 Syrely that must be the case if a millenial era of peace and happiness was dawning upon the country in conseâ€" quence of the negotiations that had been c«rried on with the United States. Surely that must be the case if we were to enjoy tuily that peace which had been purchased at the sacrifice of our territorial rights? (hear, hear). ‘The difference between the amount of interest which would have been payable on _ Canadian bonds without the Imperial guarantee and the amount payable on those bonds with the guarantee was all the advantage we gained. It did not, acoording to his cal culations, amount to more than $150,000 This was what was to be accepted as an equivalent for the valuable ri;fih surrenâ€" dered, anmon than that, it had not even been offeréd, but Ministers had placed themselves in one humiliating position of having asked it at the hinds of the Impeâ€" rial Government (hear, hear.) The pal triness of the advantage, if it was an adâ€" vantage at all, he had mentioned the othâ€" er night in some remirks he had made upâ€" on the budget speech of the Minister of Finance, and what he hid heard since only conflimed him in his opinion. Nothing would ever remove the feeling and sense of de;zradation with which he was filled at the Government of this country literaliy humiliat.ng themselves in the dust to crave thatinstead of asetilement of these Fenian clsims, which they had forborne to press upâ€"n the atténtion of England when theJ ought to have been passed, instead of demanding redress trom those who had done the wrong, they should receive this wretched consideration of money (hear, bear.) He beliered that this country was able and willing.to n&.y pnndp:’ and interest, all the maney it ought to be noâ€" cessary to borrow, without begging from the imperial tovernment for tavors in exâ€" change for undoubted territorial rights.. He believed Canada wo.ld navre been abundantly able to obtain upon its own security and almost upon as favorable terms as upon endorsement of the British Government every dollar requisite to carry out all the nece:sary and desirable works of improvement ; and believing that he fe!t that on no consideration ought we to yield our honor at the shrine of mammon, on no consideration ought we to have bartâ€" ered away our heritage for this questionâ€" able equivalent of money. He thought the House, and he was sure the great body of g:oplo of the country felt so 0o ; and he ped that vote which would be given upâ€" on this Bill would redound to the dignity and independence of Parliament, would prove our devotion to the true interests of the Empire and honor of Canada, and would be a fearless , of our rights as a people and our d agiRyitish sub jeets, such as he believed would be susâ€" tained by the public opinion of the country.
