The View that responsible govern ment involved sooner or later the severing of the lie Between the of ony and the Mother country a been stoutly combated at All stage of the controversy by Baldwin. J held u. Directly contrary opinion the Only through responsible government Ould the adherence of Canada to to British Crown be ensured. He avowed this View Glenelg in 1836 and to lord Durham in 1s3s it was the Burden ills appeals to the elec tors in his struggles with Sydenham and Metcalfe. When in 1s44, sir Charles met Calfe placed himself at the head of a political party and appealed to the electors to support him As the Only Means saving British connection from its enemies Baldwin who was in Metcalfe s eyes the chief of these enemies recommended himself and his associates to the people As the truly constitutional party. Appeal ing in March 1844, to the Public to join Tho Reform association Baldwin said earnestly i recommend to All who value the principles of the. British Constitution and to whom the preservation of the connection with the Mother country is dear to lend their Aid by joining this organization. De Pend upon it the Day will come when one of the proudest boasts of our posterity will be that they can Trace their descent to one who has his name inscribed on this great Roll of the contenders for colonial these Are the accents of sincerity but they carried no conviction to those who saw separation behind responsible government. To their minds Ity for constitutional Reform could e morally coerced into voting against their convictions if sufficient Lamor against the loyalty of their Reform leaders could be raised. To employ a graphic they could not stand the no doubt he final touch of pressure that sent reformers by the thousands into the Anks of the Metcalfe party was the pronouncement by Tham i Law indians of the Bay of hat the question is simply this whether this country to remain under the Protection and government the Queen or to become one of he United upholders in fair weather of the principles of constitutional Reform marched into the Metcalfe ranks by companies and regiments with that notable Kugleman Egerton Ryerson Well out in front and from the ensuing massacre at the polls Only Baldwin and a handful of ills follow ers escaped.

Upper Canada rushed tumult Ousby to the Succour of the victors but sit the interval the cause of responsible government and with i s future As part of the British Empire might have been lost had it. Not been for Lafontaine and his Solic following of French canadians who gave Baldwin the support in ment which enabled him to Brand the Russell Stanley Metcalfe Structure o government to the ground. To the soundness or judgment and to the sincerity of Hin Devotion to British connection two tributes can be by lord Elgin. On nov. 30, 184s, Elgin wrote to the British government that if tha change in the system of government had not been made to should by this hour either have been ignominiously expelled from Canada or our relations with Tho United would have been in a most precarious so much for Baldwin s statesman ship and foresight in March 1850, lord Elgin wrote to Earl Grey a free and pointed com ment upon the speech which lord John Russell the Premier had delivered in parliament the preceding month in which he foreshadowed the Independence of the colonies observing that in making them fit for this status England would have the Consolation of saying that she had con Ess indeed it is the great pieces a excellence in this Case Erckmann literature.

Early plaid Demeanour but i saw him so much moved. Have you read the latter part of lord Russell s be said to me. I nodded assent. For he , if the anticipation therein expressed prove to be Well founded my in Public affairs is gone forever. But is it not hard upon us while we Are Labouring through Good and evil to Ort to thwart the designs of who would the Empire hat our adversaries should be in formed that the difference Between hem and the prime minister of Enir and is Only one of Baldwin ? reference to Adver Saries had relation to the fur Midat be annexation movement which was that self government would operate in a very limited Field if Tho colonial governments stepped beyond the de fined area they would encounter the Over ruling authority of the governor As an Imperial officer and behind him the Power of the Home govern ment. Durham in his recommendations sharply restricted the Field of colonial self government and predicted a perfect subordination by the provinces to Imperial control. Wakefield held that Canada was be ing endowed with Only municipal lord John Russell and lord Stanley were too Clear sighted to accept these assurances. They saw As clearly As governor Hutchinson did in 1773, he told the Massachusetts Assembly that no line can be drawn Between the supreme authority of and the total Independence of the col that responsible government would give the people of Canada the Power to Advance As far and rapidly As they chose along the Road to in dependence. They and those for whom they spoke assumed just As the tory governors and their follow ing in Canada did that the Reform desired the Power that responsible government would give them for tha purpose of exercising this Power for the purpose of ending the connection at no Distant Date be tween Canada and great Britain. Thus it became a fixed jell of with them that Canada was preparing to withdraw having renounced the Only form of government compatible with Empire. The Best they hoped for was that in place of joining the United states she would become an Independent nation maintaining Friendly relations with great Britain. These views soon found free expression. Tho philosophical radicals had Long been preaching the doctrine that great Britain should shed her col onies As rapidly As they could tie induced to set up in business for them selves. With both tories and liberals also taking this View political opinion in great Britain As expressed in parliament became almost unanimous that the colonies could take their hats and go at any time with out hard feelings resulting. This feeling was strengthened by the col lapse of the old Imperial fiscal system through the adoption of free Trade which synchronized with the Grant ing of responsible government to can Ada. Officialdom outraged by the mrs. Grundy leaps from her seat in the front parlor screaming for the censor but with appropriate of Ultra tons from the watering can of conventional morality mrs. Grundy settles in her Arm chair and laps up the dilution with the gusto of a growing Kitten. Mrs. Sedgwick s Book is one of the season s Best Sellers it is a charming Story but How Many of its appreciative readers would feel themselves so kindly drawn to de Maupassant s searing Little or As it is sometimes called yet the theme of Yvette is essentially the theme of the Little French and anybody who is curious and after Reading mrs. Sedgwick s Story goes on and reads de Maupassant a will see the differ ence Between a pretty Talcum powder treatment of a ferocious subject and the sombre and melancholy realities which a great artist draws out of it the idea of mrs. Sedgwick s novel is As follows a. French woman of the half world has a daughter who. When we meet her is coming on for seventeen. The Little girl does not know what her Mother s life is and not Only does not know but is innocent and virginal and unsuspecting.

Rallying cry of met Calfe s campaigners in upper Canada in 1s44-. One of the charges agans Baldwin was that he had revealed the treasonable designs thai Lay in the Back of his mind by his remark in an address to the electors of mid diesel that As canadians we country and Are a theraiult of the election showed launched in Montreal in 1849 which failed largely because Aid the Baldwin Lafontaine government threw their whole weight against it. The occasion for the conversation to tween Elgin and baldw4n, thus re corded was a Council meeting for the purpose of striking from the Rolls of the magistracy the name or a Merrt Ber of parliament who bad avowed annexation St beliefs. Placed in juxtaposition to these statements by lord Elgin some observations by earlier governors will be of internet. The reformers of upper canf.4a Baldwin was their Leader Wero collectively disloyal and desirous of re publican said sir Cis head. Sir George Arthur a successor to head quoted these words to Ham and confirmed the judgment. Sir Charles Jle Calfe upon his arrival in expressed his official regret that he found the a publicans Baldwin and his followers in Power. So mucin for Baldwin s to British connection and the cavity of the governors who honoured. Upper Canada with their presen Cri in those troublous Days. Refusal of the provinces to submit to its direction accepted and encouraged the idea of Early separation. Peel in 1s42, seriously in a letter to lord Aberdeen foreign minister and in the same year Stanley petulantly in a letter to Bagot governor of Canada suggested that it might be necessary to withdraw from can Ada if it appear that Tho people were not with the test As to whether the Canadian people were with great Britain was to be their readiness to sustain those measures which we consider necks. Sary for their Good government and for the maintenance of a. Safe con Nexion with Peel to Aber Deen May 16, 1s42.

Statement already quoted which moved Robert been Given the colonies i confess that i myself thought that the tie was it is evident that Disraeli in the fifties shared the general View that Early separation was inevitable and desirable. Nor did this opinion change As the years passed rather the steady As sumption by Canada of new Powers far outside the boundaries set by Durham strengthened the belief of British Public men that Canada looked Forward to separation. And indeed the time came when action of this character was rather desired As the Best Way out of a difficult situation. This feeling was heightened by the Strain upon the relations Between great Britain and the United states resulting from the civil War. The two countries were within measurable distance of than once and with War threatening Canada seemed Raore and More to tha British government concerned primarily with the Protection of the interests of great Britain a dangerous liability. Desire toy the americans for Canada might bring on War the difficulty of defending it would be great Faith in the ability canadians to do much in the Way of de Story of course deals with the Grad Ual revelation to the English family and to the Little French of what the Mother is and the Earth quake effects which the discovery produces on various members and connections of the family. The idea is not so bad but As mrs. Sedgwick handles it it becomes rather comical you Rise from de Maupassant s Yvette with a shudder of outraged Justice but from the Little French girl you retire with a smile it has All certainly been rather dreadful but everything has been arranged so nicely and we have made the rather interesting Dis covery that thoroughly immoral people Are to to judged not by.
