he cannot forego this opportunity to infuse
into his remarks that bitterness against Eng

" The new order in council,"_ he says, is
aconspicuous evidence of the injustice which
now characterises the conduct of the bellige

discovered by Great-Britain, that there is one
branch of commcrce, (it it may be so called}
