by the officers and men in her Majesty s
military and naval forces engaged.
am happy to be enabled to state that the
President of the United States has issued a
Proclamation declaring that serious infrac-
tionloflsws of that countryhave been and are
being committed by evil disposed persons
within the territory and jurisdiction of the
United Statesagainstthe British possessions,
and requiring all officers of his government
to exert every effort for their repression
and l trust the course thus adopted will ere
long prevent this country from being sub
iected to further attacks from the citizens
of the ination on terms of amity with
| Great Britain. The maintenance on the ac-
tive duty which the government is com
| PEELED to call out has Involved the expen-
diture to large amount not provided for.
The vote last session accounts for this ex-
penditure. 1t will be laid before the
House, and feel confident you will imme-
diately pass ithe bill, imdemnifying the
government for unavoidable expense from
| the provision act. ..-
Recent occurrences show the necessity Of
extending to lower Ganada the act 10 pro
teet the inhabitants of that section of the
Province, against lawless aggressions from
the subjects of foreign countries at peace
with Her Majesty. 1t has also been neees-
sary for the preservation Of law and order
to adopt the course similar to that
which was taken at the present session
Imperial Parliament for the temporary sus-
pension Of the habeas eorpns. invite your
immediate attention to these necessary
measures.
l congratulate you on the satisfactory re-
suits of the commerce of the country during
the past year. The revenue is so largely in
excess of the estimates as to enable US,
without Inconvenience, to provide for the
heavy and unexpected changes entailed on
the country.
HThe position which the great question Of
union of the Provinces Of British North |
America has assumed is now such as to in |
duce expectation that the measure will be |
shortly carried into effect therefore hope |
and believe that it viii be practicable dur |
ing the present session to adopt such pro-
ceedings as may be necessary for the COM
pleting Of the details as regards Canada. l |
venture to express 8 confident expectation i
that the new parliament held within these
walls will not alone be confined TO the as
sembled representatives, of Canads, but will |
embrace all the Provinces of British North
America
congratulate you upon your general
prosperity, and pray that your councils,
guided by Divine Providence, may secure
the moral and material advancement Of the
great body of the people.
