If we except the money byâ€"laws in local municipal ities, and a few nearly abortive statutory proâ€" visiods for prohibiting the sale of intoxicatâ€" ing liquors, also taking effect through municipal agency, a reference to the decision of the popular vote on any measure of legisâ€" lation : is totally unknown to our political sys tem, and has never heretofore been resorted t,, in regard of any of the successive steps in the progress of the .colony towards selfgorâ€" ernment, since it first became a dependency of the British Crown to the present day. The decision of the provincial legislatures‘ con: stitutionally convened is the only legal exâ€" pression of the popular voice on political questions, and that the Aibion cannot deny could have been more succéssful, than the course of the Canadian Government upon this question, since its inception in 1864. ‘Whatever delays or drawbacks have occurred since then, none of them can be justly chatged upon the Government or the people of this country , while our contributions to the ranks of th¢ opponents of Mh’awhu so utterly insignificant as to serve only in throwing into bolder relief the popular unaniâ€" mity in favor of the project. & based. â€"As to the ‘alleged ." bad manage ment ‘‘ ot the representatives of Canada, we conceive it would be very hard for the Ailbion to specify. in what particular it has been manifested ; tested ‘by,the result, nothing . We are not a httle surprised to note that our usually careful and well informed conâ€" temporary, the New York Albion, has .alâ€" most drifted into despair of an early accomâ€" plishment of Confederation. In its issue of the 19th, inst., it professes to have been "con ." fidentially advised, that the Coloniab Secâ€" @retary, and, in fact, the whole British Cabâ€" viser with indifference, as events have alâ€" ready demonstrated that ‘he was utterly misâ€" taken in his surmiseseâ€"in fact, the Albion should in the ordinary course of post have been in possession of information exactly to the contrary ofthat upon which its fears are of its readers about the Albion‘s having " doubted the wisdom of attempting to carry *any particular scheme* without submitting * the project with all its details to the pecâ€" * ple of all the Provinces interested," with a great many, other speculations, equally at varignce. with the actual progress of erents during the past six weeks. _ *‘ | With the information which has for some time been before the Canadian public, wecan afford to treat the Albion‘s confidential adâ€" "@ inet, are actually in danger of being inâ€" «* fluenced . ... . soâ€" far as to refuse responsiâ€" * ble action on this subject in the coming i« Parliathent.‘" It then hopes that the act of Confederation will be promptly carried inâ€" to effect, notwithstanding the opposition © and the bad management of the Canadian repreâ€" sentatives.‘"" It next refreshes the memory not a éopy of the resolutions adopted by the London Conference that the Canadian News professes to publish. All the information which the last named journal gives regarding the proceedings of the Conference is containâ€" ed in the extract above quoted, and is only valuable here as confirmatory of the informaâ€" tion already published on undoubted authorâ€" ity, which it is not expedient to proclaim, even to satisfy the skeptical. q m of the resolutions published by the Canadian News, Our Montreal confrere calls them ""the resolutions arrived at by the Confederaâ€" ‘"important departure from the original 4# scheme."" If our contemporary will look again to the article he will see that it is mereâ€" ly a summary of the " original scheme," and date elsewhere published, ‘discrediting the announcement that the Delegates had fihally agreed upon the bases of the bill. : The News follows up the abovequoted announcement by publishing a summary of the Quebec resoâ€" lntions, but at present it is unnecessary to reproduce it here, as the Canadian public are, or ought to be, familiar with these resoâ€" lutiqgs, and it will be time enough when the bill 1s published to enter on a close examinaâ€" tion as to its agreement with the principles and details adopted at Quebec in 1864. We notice that the Daily News (Montreal) has fallen into a mistake regarding the nature "tion Congress," and adds that he sees " no received the unanimous assent of all the may be in readiness to be submitted to Parliaâ€" m-m“hlâ€"-*abu of next month as practicable.
