did we not more than suspect that IA, n,a.

We now make another extract from m.
eenieman's letter, showing wha, wa. b,
opinion of Mr. Papineau's conduct in Can.
ada. He thinks the greGi man WA 4,
spoiled child, and so do We
" The misfortune with You Sir. is, ,Lat ,out,..
been spoiled by that influence and lha, c,irao,F.
airy fame which ii the policy Of tho CapsG,n
people 10 give you, m gathering around ven sta
in eevating you on their shoulders. 50 thai by ,.,
fictitious grandeur you could dominate over Al
he leading men Of the tory party. From lh,, 90,
accustomed yourself 10 know no nan auonp ,s,,
colleagues as your equal, aud TO see among ,ea,
compatriots but interiors. II was our miei6f,eF.

you was thought 10 be endowed with theta.

GREAT NAN in the county"
In speaking Of the movements Of 1883
Mr.. Charter uses The following language,
This want Of correspondence on your part.
and obassociatons with those who by fact and ~
right were your colleagues, that isolated position
in which you kept yourself in regard 10 rho,
whose arfJortaaes you had caused, have rendered
you incapable Of giving to the expedition Of last
tall The powerful support Of your influence ty
which probably II would have succeeded lhst
much as II has been the eve # being successGl
under the sole influence oftwo individuals vbo,
position was only secondary 10 yours; aud yaR
must be allowed that their influence was IN SoHt
way paralyaed by the absence Of your name, which
was reproof on your part Of their undertaking
K cally, bad they been successful would il no.
have been 10 spite Of you Aud with what nh
would you have come forward to divide auet
hat your never helped to win. II is true du
10 say that the movement of 1883, which sa
more general than that Of 1881, has token pleu
Without you, Without the great leaders, wtAaa
he peoples man! Oh, wha, sad and i6u1oasr
lectons your conduct has given rise to VIA
while the secret associatfch Of tbe summer Of lSs,
was numbering thousands Of initiated, "a boa
Canadas and in tho u. States along the fonIa,
Or. pGpineoa and his HHie Clique did cot BE-

ome OF your supporters call ii ? Activity, eGtru
md audacity have oftentImes brought revolt lot
uccessful issue, and this day we see wilb 6W
'wn eyes the result Of the cold calculation q
lmorous prudence. But if the generous eGoHsa

o be called fooHshness, how is il that in sfre o.
Is III success, the Americans WHO are great car
ulators, have not deemed it ttmertty 10 sHtnli

Here is Mr.. Charters second reason Io'
dvsing Mr.. Papineau TO go to France
