*gig to admire the ingeouity with itch the-iMell
end a the wedge was introduced. "The vote was now
for 30,0001. but behind it there was mother for 900,0001.
and when this was Rained there would come a vote for
;L900.0001. exclusive of the vote of 500,0001. for the
Rideau Canal. Thirty thousand pounds was the only
jam now demanded by the Right Honourable Gentle-
was the sum the House by that
man; but 2,300,0001.
rote was called on to pledge itself for. He had last year
:voted 41,0001. for the Rideau Canal.; he said that to his
shame, or rather to the shame cf the qovernmFot, which
had brought forward the vote in such a Trey alto make
him think that great commercial and military advan-
tages could beobtained for a comparatively small sum.
Mr. Clowes had omitted many expenses necessary for,
the execution of the project, as well as many item
under the head of contingencies. Yet this was the only
estimate on which Ministers, in the last Session, called
upon Parliament to pledge themselves to a vote for
41,0001. ai covering one-fourth of an intended expen-
diture, which pow amounted to 527,000/. The House
was called upon to vote this sum, apd were told, if they
' did not do so, all the immense sums already expended
would be sacrificed and lost. Lieutenant Colonel Bye
bad pledged the honour of the Government to contracts
to the amount of 100,0001 besides other expenses to the
extent of 61,0001. If lie wanted any proof of the military
propensities,notions and habits of Ministers,what stronger
evidence could he have than their conduct on this occa-
sion ? For the first time, on the 4th July, the House heard
of a supplementary estimate of 31,0001. and were called
upon to vote that sum on the next day. This vote pledged
the House to a farther expenditure of tivilinitlions, and
that at a time when the Fi ii anceCons mittee wash ppointed,
on account of the extremely low and desperate state of
the finances--(Hear). By 'the lowest showing of the
Right Hon. Gentleman, the expenditure would be
2.5;;0.0001. and this was to be spent upon a country
• hich they were told it would be so difficult tb retain—
(Hear). But had the Treasury Benches forgot that
another Committee was Oren sitting upon the Govern.
ment, or rather mis government of Cauada—to ascertain
how far. Ministers had alienated the affections of the
Pe9Ole, who were the greatest safety, the only fortifica-
tions which the Mother Country could depend upon E..:
the nreseriration of the Colony? It might be a subject of
inquiry ivheiherifwere notwise to transfer to the Colonists
themselves the management of their own affairs. With
respect to the works themselves, the two were inge-
niously selected by the Right Hon. Gentleman, so as to
render it difficult to disprove his arguments. The Right
Honourable Gentleman bad talked of the event of an
invasion, of being attacked by an enemy who had the-
Commend at sea, who might turn the works of Nova
Scotia, and attack the country. Why, Sir, were this
to he the case, not all the works in the world would
defend the colony. As to Kingston, what was the event
of the naval battles of the last war? lie would ask,
Wat were the Americans doing at Sacker's Harbour?
ere they indulging in any great scale of expendi-
tire like this country? No; the Americans were dis-
Mantling their fortifications —they were reducing
their expensei—they were reserving their resources ;
.lot-they well knew that the sinews of war were to be
strengthened only by the economy of peace. The Duke
of Wellington, in his examination before the Commit.
tee, had preferred the postponement of those works
which the Right Hon. Gentleman was now pressing on
the House as the first to be executed. In the late war,
the Colonists, unsupported, successfully defended theist-
selves from the Americans. When he knew the diffi-
culty that the United States felt in maintaining their
troops foi invasion, and that they depended on their
Militia, which were excellent troops for self-defence,
hot not for foreign aggression ; when he knew that the
greatest Statesmen of America, so far from wanting an
linftfase Of territory, already felt their possessions to be
tossfarg! ; *ben he knew that the United States had no
itsclinattoa to iova.de Canada, except to annoy Great
'lliitain, he could put avoid seeing that this expenditure
*as wanton apd uncalled for by any real necessity.
Sir E. OWEN would not enter into the discursive
opinions which the Hon. Member had uttered, but be
would maintain ;hat the greatest difficulty was felt
daring last war, from the want of the means of tramp
faring men and stores to the point of attack ; almost halt
OM stores were lost in the transport, and the remainder
Weft conveyed with great difficulty, with many impti
dimeots, and at a great expense. -The proposed works:
mould obviate all such difficulties. How great the ad.
vantage would be if the requisite stores, and if a regi.
mem of soldiers could be put on board of a steam boat,
and, by mean; of this canal, be copveyed in four or five
days so the point at which their services might be re!
qehired. A fortification at the commencement of the
works was necessary to secure their operation, and such
fortifications would. in general, be useful as depots of
slims, cand for the purpose of forming the militia. The
less of the naval supremacy in Lake Erie, during the
last war, was the consequence of the initerruptimt
which the canal would remove. Great Britain had pre.
served the supetiority on Lake Ontario, and Lake
Champlain had nothing to do with the contest. The
'great importance of Canada to England, in a corn
mercial point of view, would justify the expenditure
which the House was called upon to vote.
Mr. MABERLY thought it necessary to know the
whole amount of the ettronMe, before the House voted
the stun required. The etpesile that had been incurred
was 436,7261 s and it was intended to complete the iv&
peovements at a further expense of 1,334,0001. making
a total of 1,771,0001. This alluded to the first class of
expenditure, but with the second and third classes,
the total' atistruilLetobld be not less than 2,833,0001.
The total eeptilirritre' with the works at Halifax,
would be 3,000,0001. The ' Duke • of Wellington had
said, that whin those works were coMplete, the country
might be defended with ten thousand troops. Other
MiNntry men had thought that double that number
would be requisite; and .certainly the defence and oct
caption of the Proposed works would require a great
body of troop,. If the works were not well occupied,
they would be taken by the enemy. The Government
had alienated the affection' of the people of Canada,
sand it would not bt`pessible to retain the country long.
With respect to the trade with Canada, he believed if a
debtor and creditor account could be produced it would
be tonna that, in a commercial point of view, the co-
lony pas a disadvantage rather than a benefit 'to the
mother country. England could buy timber much
cheaper than from the Canadians.
. Mr. ROBINSON should support the grant, for he-
!denied that the vote would pledge the House to grant-
.ing any further sums.
-Mr. STANLEY said, that the Right Hon. Gentleman
had confessed,th4 the present vote was only part of what
he inteodedio 4 A from Parliament.
Sir H. HARDINGE said, be roust correct thenotion
lestAis Hon. Friend behind him (Mr. Robinson). Al} be

could say was,•that when the further grunts were asked
roldti m Parliament, Members would have ample means
a ded of making up their minds on the subject.
T. STANLEY was convinced it was intended m
filllow up the vote to its full extent, and if this we're the
case, the Right lion. Gentleman ought, in candour and
fairness, to declare it.

_
Sir H. H A RDINGE said that the improttementef the..
Colony would be so great, by the present vote, that he
should consider a great deal was done for its defence...`
He could not, for a moment, :4, that if 900,000/. Wert
spent instead of 530,0001. the defence would not he more
perfect ; but he would assert. that the dOenee itself was
an object of such importance, that inr1.1526 heretrived

FfitanceCommiftee he had biought forward.the subject, •
without any appearance of concealment. In selecting
the two points ofilalifix and Kingston, he had merely
followed up the plan which had been assented to in 1826.
The present vote would not involve more than 330,0004
Mr. ROBINSON. said, that with every dispositinn to
support the vote, he could not possibly do so after the
explanations given by th- Right Hon. Gentleman.
Lord JOHN RUSSELliesaid he regretted that.*
Finance Com mittee haid`pietely given the whole amount,
itrithnidany account eft partitUlars, or any Other state-
ment ofevidinee en'tile subject. He could not but.i.
trait this enormous expense of 2 500,0001. and it
manner in which the House was treated, with the
conduct of tdr.Pitt upon an. analogous occasion. Whin
Mr. Pitt vias'at the head of the country, he withed to
forward the views of the Duke of R chmond, in fortis
fying Plymouth and Portsmouth, at an expense or
.0000(11: which was afterwards to be increased to
700,0001. He obtained a vote of 20,0004 but finding
that the House was inclined against the measure, he did
0,4 Spend that suns, but referred the whole qoestioreto
Board of Military and Naval Officers, who repotted
upon the subject. Nest year he wishei to have the
works undertaken after the Board had made .tieir
port. • Mr. Pitt-made one of the best 'pm/ie. on the
subject he ever uttered, but the House was so nosily
bal *need in opinion, that there was an equal division,
and the Speaker gave his casting vote. He could
not but contrast this with the precipitancy el the
present • measure. He at least expected from ;the
Right Honourable and Q4llant Gentleman .(the
cretary of State) some little explanation why they
had been induced to take this extraordinary sstep.
It was now, too, proposed for the first time to undertake
the defence of our Colonies by a laud tsar, and to trans-
port an army across the globe for the purpose of defend-
ing them. To the commencement of a system of that
kind he decidedly objected; and when he considered
the slender thread by which those Colonies were bound
'to this country, and the smallness of the trade which
this country carried on with them, he certainly thought
it would be wiser to wait another year, and until they
Made more extended inquiries, Ir fore they cOnsentedzo
the expenditure of so large a sum in fortifications. It
was said that there fortifications were necessary to se-
cure the Canadas to this country, and to provideforthe
safety of all its West India pos essions ; but he.could
tell them that a piece of parchment of barely ten lines
containing the name of Ireland, would do more to se-
cure the safety of England at,d her possessions, than the
expenditure of all her millions--(Hear, hear.)
Mr. M. FITZGERALD complained of .the method
of treating the question of the Colonies as a matter-of
pounds, shillings and pence. If Parliament was deter
mined to have Colonies, it was their duty to preserve
them, and he could tell them that Halifax was one of
the finest harbours in the world, and that as long se
they held it, and had a-canal to carry up stores intoithe
Interior, the Americans would never again venture/a
attack us upon Lake Ontario., or disturb that commerce
which we carried on with the inhabitants cf the distant
settlements. Looking, therefore, at the importance at
preserving Canada, and at the importance of being pr a.
tided with a proper defence in he event of war, lefelt
bound to vote against his friends around him, and saps
port the grant-.-(Hear. hear).
Mr. LABOUCHERE thought that it was the yeti
worst species of economy to leave the Canadas mites
tested; and when he considered the vast expense •te
which the country was put doting the last war, wheel
we were found unprepared, he was compelled to wow
for the grant, unless he heard that they were prepared
for the alternative that it was determined not to defend
Canada in the event of its being invaded. It was wrong
to bold out Canada in a defenceless state, as a tempts-.
tion to America, and to the disturbance of that state of
harmony which be wished to preserve. He gave hit
vote therefore for the grant, on one condition. that the
Government would apply itself honestly and energetiii
cally to a redress of the grievances of the Canadas, and
to the prosecution of that system of conciliation which
could alone preserve that feeling of loyalty and affection
to the mother country which had been.so conspicuous
on every occaeieu—(Hear, hear).
Mr. BARING thought that the House ought not no
consider the question of money too rigidly, if the sAtits
were, as had been stated, one which involved the tan
of this country. At the same time they must net coo-
sider that two and a half millions would be the limit of
the expense of these works. Of this they must be satisfied
when they recollected the manner in which building, et-
tiarated at 150,0001. had swelled to 500,0001. They must
also recollect the enormous cost of the Caledonian Csai
beyond the original estimate, and other under takris :a
this couetry,which,not w i th stand ing they-were conduced
under our own eyes, far exceeded the expectations of she
projectors. By this observation he meant not to imp:Ac
any thing wilful or negligent to the persons who had e"'
timated the'works in Canada. It was invariably theme
in such undertakings, and he could only say thnt he should
be very sorry to belong to any company which 00014
undertake to execute these works for doable or eve's
treble the amount named. Under these circumstance,.
as it was manifest they were now called upon to embark
in a scheme which would entail an enormous expeD
upon them, it became them setiously to consider to
what end they were proceeding. The object was the
retention and defence of the Canadas, and they me
to inquire whether that particular colony watone why
' they were likely to be able to anoexpermaneptly to tbio
country. For hie own part, he believedthatii wawa
one of a nature destined to be permanently attached;"
any
European State—(Hear.:hear). The histtii yof 0
own country for the last fifty years powertuily tended
to that conclusion, and experience ought to give t
wisdom as to the future. It then we wre in.what •vos
