GUNTLEMEN—Permit me to return you my 711-
cere acknowledgments for your Address, and fur
the favourable opinion you have expressed ot my
Chatacter and the manner in which I have admi-
nistered this Gocernment.

My best endeavours have been oterted for the
advantage of Lower Canada ; but it is to the
wisdom and liberality of the Provincial Legisla-
ture, and the good dispositions of the People,
rather than to any limit of mine, that the bene-
fits alluded to are to he ascribed.

You may be assured, that in quitting Canada,
I shall retain a lively interest in the prosperity
of the Province, and that 1 shall be most happy
to evince my zeal for its welfare whenever and
wherever it may be in my power.
I feel particularly grateful fur the kindness
which dictated the conclusion of your Address,
and 1 trust, that the gracious and protecting Pro-
vidence to whose care you commend me and
mine, may continue to extend his benign influ-
ence over this Province, and prosper the exer-
tions of its industrious and loyal inhabitants.
