The writer pointa out, first, the advantages arising out of geographical cox.- tig-uity to the United States, and endeavour; to demonstrate by statistics the eect which annex- ation would exert upon the trade and industry of the provinces. The rapid increase of popula- tion in the Unitedistatea is pointed out as an- other inducement for annexation; and another consideration in favour of it which it Walker holda out in the unprecedented rapidity of in- crease of wealth by the United States. Under thie head he attaempta to demonetr leuneea of the (ear that British America would safer through the magnitude of `the American national debt. The increase in wealth and po- pulatiouwill, he an erla, in comparatively tew yearn, make it a mere bagatelle when coaeidered in connection with the vastness of_ American re .tbeir independence, we should never have aI -_...... Avu vvulillu not nave to wait the slow process of our naturalization `laws, but by the very act of annexation you would all become im- mediately American citizens with all their rights and privileges. The Senators and Representa- tives from Nova Scotis. would take their places in the American Congress, and their statesmen graoe oar Cabinet. In peace we would delight to do all in our power to advance-your p1'Q5per- ity, and in war we should defend you from all assailants. Indeed, with all British North Ame- rica ours, with their own free-consent and that of England, exhibited in the acknowledgment of other Ivar. The whole North American conti- nent would soon be ours by voluntary annexa- tion, and, as will be shown hereafter, our popu. lation, long before the close of this century, would reach at least one hundred and ft} mil- lions of people, and our wealth be counted by hundreds of billions of dollars. ' and China on the cast are already warm friends China having trusted to at.

If Nova Scotia should signify to us her de- sire to become a State of the Union mostadvsn- tageous terms would be`o`ered her The crown lands, now estimated atfour million! of acres, would become bus, together with all the un- granted mines which they contain, whether of gold,silver,*coal, or any other mineral. Tbee lands and. mines, after annexation, would be- come of great value. ` All public bu ldings would become yours, except forts, arsenals, navy-yarda, aud custom-houses. We would as- sume your public debt, now estimated at $8,000,000. 01' course you would receive your State for an agricultural and mPchanical,collsge. This scrip, in the case of Nova Scotut, would be of the value of $225,000. Since the meeting of our rst Congress, in 1789, the General Govern- menhas granted to the several States and Ter- ritories land and money of the estimated value of $330,000,000 for the purposes of education. Included in this sum-is $39,000,000, distributed by Congress among the States in 1836. Again, during the same period, Congress has granted to the States and Territories, or to compan'es re- presenting them, lands and moneys of the esti- mated value of $307,000,000, for the improve- ment of rivers `and harbours, and the construc- tion of levees, turnpiltes, railroads, and canals. These grants embrace every State of the Union, and even Territories. On becoming a State, Nova Scotia would, of course, participate there- after in her full share of such appropriations. We should, in my judgment, t-at construct the short ship canal which would unite the Bay of Fundy with Northumberlaud Sound, and connect the Brain d'Or with the Strait of Como, We should unite our railroad system as soon as prac- ticable by the lower southern route, with that of New England, New York, and Canada. We should extend our light-house system (which is free from light does) all along your IlJ0t'('B, in- cluding buoys, light boats, and all other aids to navigation, and give you all the advantages of our magnicent coast survey, up to the head of tide water, throughout your limits. We would improve your rivers and harbours as we do our own, and construct all the necessary Federal buildings. We should protect and improve your sheries, and aid in developing, by all con- stitutional means, your mineral and agricultural wealth. Of course, you would enjoy for ever, under the Constitution, absolute reciprocal free trade with all Ilia States, thus securing the mar- kets of forty millions of people. You would participate equally with ourselves in the exciti- sive privileges of our ggantic coasting trade. One of our first acts would probably be the es- tablishment of a great line oi ocean ll8nlEl'B to run from Halifax to Europe, built by yourselves, and with your own iron and timber, aided by postal and other arrangements. The improve- ment of Halifax would, of course, become our in- tereet and duty, and we should expect to see her in time approach Boston in wealth and popula- tion. Novs Scotia on entering the Union would frame for herself such republican btate constitu- tion as would be acceptable to her people. An immense prosperity would immediately succeed annexation, and you would certainly soon bring all the ret of British North America into our Union. You would not have wait , very` you would all hnnnrnn :... share of our public land scrip set apart for every ' _,_____.---.. -.._ .-u vvvlnunlv un nuvn uvunxn n The rst question is very briey but positive- ly answered by the statement that since the disappearance of slavery from the United States the annexation of Non Seotie would be hailed with unbounded estisfection. As to the terms of nnnexauion the United States government would be willing to grant, Mr Walker hold: out the most tempting inducements, and our Wash- ington contemporary moat graciously assures us that liberal and advantageous as these trrtns are they would be otfered as well to the other B!'ili~h American provinces should they be disposed to Irene.

The American Minister leaves New York for London on the 19th instant, without any formal instructions whatever. In place of reading formal demands contain- ed in heavy deepatches, it will`be his duty to report the situation, and inform the Ameri- can government on the nature of the advan- ces that would have a chance of being ac- cepted. It is now perfectly clear that Sena- t tor Sumner : speech has made, Mr Motl_ey's task more dicult than it otherwisewould have been ; but since the administration has repudiated Senator Sumner in thismatter, it may not be so difficult to patch up the old treaty into a mutually acceptable form: In spite of the indignation which the rejection of the treaty by the Senate has occasioned, and in spite of the outburst of scorn with which Mr Sumner : preposterous demands have been met in England; we may be sure that Mr Gladstone s Cabinet will not miss any fair opportunity for bringing about saettle- men: of the Alabama claims.

Mr 'Robitaille said we had given the Americans the right of shing in Canadian waters while our shermen received nothing in return. If they were to be protected in the future it would be necessary to send men with full power and authority to exer- cise all jurisdiction required for the proper discharge of the duty. The law was such that these necessary powers could not be granted by this government. He was con- dent lhar. by applying to the local govern- ments this power could be got. Mr Stewart Campbeil said this was un- questionably a subject in which Nova Sco- tia was particularly interested. During the last three years American shermen had been allowed to sh in our waters at a licence varying from 50c to $2 per l'.( n, and (luring these three years it was sup- p posed our own shermen had been protected in their rights. What had been the value of this protection? Why that during these three years not asinglo seizure had been made, notwithstanding the large number of American vessels known to be shing in Canadian waters, and the small number at licence_taken out. This year the Am ori- cans did not intend to take outa single furnished not one dollar would be paid for licences. 1[_ntn- . -. greatly mistaken.

The British representations in Brazil and Cuba were ordered by the Imperial Government to forward the objects of the Canadian Commissioners in every possible way, and they were conveyed in British ships ofwar to and from their destination with every mark of respect and attention, which simply as independent Canadians they would never have been entitled to. At a later date our delegates have negotiated with the Hudson's Bay Company for the cession of a territory nearly as large as Europe, aided and encouraged by the Imperial Government, without whose assistance the compromise could never have been e`ected. Mr Hontingdon surely never means to assert that the Imperial Government is unfavourable to the renewal of the Recif rocity treaty.
