latter province, to provide that such union shall take
place on principles strictly just, to which it might be
presumed that the Legislature of Lower Canada, if
they acquiesced in the measure of union, would not un-
willingly accede ; and it could not be presumed that
that Legislature would consent to the provision that
Lower Canada, having 700,000 inhabitants, and com-
prising the cities of Quebec and Montreal, should have
no larger number of representatives in the united Legis-
lature than Upper Canada, which has 400,000 inha-
bitants.

2. Because the measure affixing an equal number of
representatives to two provinces so unequal, for the
temporary end of outnumbering the French, tends to
defeat the purpose of union, and to perpetuate the idea
of disunion, while, if emigration should largely increase
the English population in Upper Canada, it will tend to
give the same undue weight to the French which it now
gives to the English inhabitants of the united province.

1. Because the House having decided giving an
equal number of representatives to Upper and Lower
Canada, a measure which in itself appears to be unjust
to Lower Canada, it is the more necessary to provide
that the representation of that province shall be settled
in a manner unexceptionable, and calculated to give
satisfaction to the great majority of its inhabitants.
2. Because the Act now regulating the representa-
tion of Lower Canada was only passed in 1829, and in
the opinion of the Canada Commissioners, " cannot
justly be charged with unfairness :" and the proposed
amendments would have left the representation of Lower
Canada as it was then settled, with no other alteration
than that which the necessary reduction of the total
number of members for that province renders una-
voidable.
•

3. Because the alterations in the representation of
Lower Canada contained in the Bill are partial in their
character, having for their object still further indirectly
to increase that diproportion between the representa-
tion of the English and French population of the pro-
vinces to be united, which is directly effected by the
previous provision that the two provinces shall he repre-
sented by an equal number of members.
4. Because, if the French Canadians are to be de-
prived of Representative Government, it would be better
to do it in a straightforward way than to attempt to esta-
blish a permanent system of Government on the ba,is of
what all mankind would regard as electoral frauds. It
is not in North America that men can be cheated by
an unreal resemblance of Representative Government,
or persuaded that they are outvoted, when, in fact, they
are disfranchised.

ELLENBOROUGH.
PROTEST AGAINST THE THIRD READING OF THE CA-

NADA GOVERNMENT BILL, JULY 13, 1840.

1. Because the vast extent of the provinces to be
united, the peculiar difficulty of communication between
the several parts of those provinces, the dissimilar state
of society in them requiring dissimilar laws, and the great
amount of local and private as well as of public business
to be transacted by a legislature small in number, during
a session necessarily short, combine to render it impog-
sible that under any circumstances the provisions of the
Bill should afford a good Government to the people of
Canada.

2. Because the great majority of the inhabitants of
Upper Canada, being sincerely loyal, that province, under
a separate legislature, and an honest executive govern-
ment, discountenancing the disaffected and encouragieg
the loyal, might be expected to remain permanently
connected with this country, and by its position and its
resources would afford the means of retaining posses-
sion of the other provinces, which, if Upper Canada be
lost, it would be impracticable to preserve.
3. Because the Bill, framed in a spirit of distrust of
the French inhabitants of Lower Canada, yet gives very
considerable power to their representatives, and while
it tends to confirm their alleged disloyalty by the dis-
trust it manifests, and by the bad government it creates,
affords at the same time the means of constituting, by
their coalition with the representatives of the disaffected
in Upper Canada, a permanent majority in the Assembly
hostile to the connection with this country.
4. Because the Bill, founded on a double error—
that of undue distrust of the whole French population,
and that of undue confidence in the whole population of
British origin—while it gives to the former a represen-
tation inadequate to its number and to its wealth, has
for its object to transfer in effect to the latter the whole
legislative authority.
5, Because such legislative authority, exercised in
the spirit in which it is bestowed, must permanently
subject the whole French population to a rule practi-
cally worse, because partially and less enlightened, and
that which in consequence of recent events has been
tern7nrarily imposed upon it by Parliament.
6. Because it is unwise to show distrust, and yet to
give power to the distrusted—to commit an injustice,
and yet to afford the means of revenge ; and while Par-
liament would be justified in taking all reasonable tem-
porary security against suspected disloyalty, it should
be its policy, as it is its duty, to extend its paternal
care even to a disaffected people, and instead of con-
firming temporary alienation by permanent wrong, to
endeavour to retore ancient loyalty by just and benefi-
cent government.
7. Because an union between two vast and dissimilar
provinces, imposed upon one in distrust of its loyalty,
without its consent, and on conditions which it must
deem unjust, and acquiesced in by the other from views
of fiscal advantage and legislative ascendancy, contains
within itself the elements of its own dissolution ; and
there is but too much reason to apprehend that, at no
distant period, both provinces will seek a refuge from
their incongruous connection, and from the grievance of
an impracticable government, in a separation from this
country, to be effected only, under such circumstances,
through the violent means of civil and of foreign war.
8. Because it is inconsistent with prudence to take a
step which cannot be recalled under the temporary pres-
sure of difficulties, and hastily to adopt a measure of
which the proposers do not. pretend to foresee the work-
ing, and which its opponents deem to tend directly to
the loss of the Canadas only because it is considered
necessary " to do something" with respect to them.
9. Because it is not by such legislative union, but by
institutions carefully adapted to local circumstances and
social distinctions—above all, by the conferring of prac-
tical benefits, that the peaceful possession of those pro-
vinces is to be secured, by the establishment in Lower
Canada of a pure administration of justice, by the grant
of aid to Upper Canada for the completion of a ship
canal which may connect the most remote parts of that
province with the navigable portion of the St. Lawrence,
and by enacting an equitable arrangement for the col-
lection by both provinces of separate duties of Cus-
toms on that river—measures essential to the well-
being and contentment of the Canadas, and calculated,
in conjunction with the commercial favours they already
enjoy, to place their connection with this country upon
the only solid foundation—a deep conviction that they
derive advantages from that connection which would be
unattainable under any form of independent or of federal
Government.

SISTER.

CONSTANTINOPLE, JUNE 28.—0 n the 25th we had
a very pretty procession on the occasion of the betrothal
of the Princess Atize to Ahmed Fethi Pacha. To de-
scribe the whole in detail would make a long history,
therefore I will concentrate the description in as few-
words as possible. A dashing band in full fig, piping,
puffing, heating, and clanging away most harmoniously
airs of Rosini, led the way ; then came a battalion of
infantry, two long files of sergeants, lieutenants, and
captains on foot ; after these, on horseback, were bun-
bashis, alai erniuis (adjutants), kaimakams (lieut.-solo
nels;, mir alais (colonels), mir lives (generals of bri-
gade). These were followed by the teshrifatgi (master
of the ceremonies), who headed the presents, consist-
ing of 120 trays of sweatmeats, made up in gu,ize of all
the colours of the rainbow—each tray was carried on
the head of a servant on foot ; six trays, on each of
which were two pieces of beautiful sevai (gold tissue)
richly embroidered ; three trays Cashmere shawls
fun plus joli que rautre ; one tray, on which was
a superbly embroidered bag, containing a piece of
sevai of matchless worth, a servant bearing a splen-
didly worked cushion, glittering with gold. These
were succeeded by two open chariots, drawn by
four prancing steeds ; they contained each a large
trunk,the wood covered with velvet, and nearly
all
the velvet with silver. These are for the
lady's traps and finery. Ahmed Pacha's bead
servants walked after the carriages, at the head of what
I or any reasonable man or woman should have
esteemed sweeter than the sugar plums—v;z., five trays
each, with a silk purse containing 100,000 piastres ih
gold; one tray with a pair of gold bath pat tens, the
straps studded with brilliants, besides two pairs of ship-
ships (slippers), sparkling with similar precious stones ;
one tray with a circular hand mirror, the back of gold
( and brilliants. One tray with

thing, you know, ends with something appertaining" to
the eating department, and so the dishes brought up
the rear of the presents. Another teshrifatgiwhose
duty it was to take a receipt for them as a certificate that
all have gone to their destination, followed, and after
him came the sadraZam (grand vizier), more music, and
more soldiers. Who would not be a princess? The
marriage rejoicings will be very soon, as the fireworkers,
are, to my knowledge, already hard at work. I hear
that the Sultan, who has that expense on his hands (all
the above being at the charge of the bridegroom), has
set aside 1.50,0001. to defray it.—Herald.
