was glad to find chat a turn in the tide
had recently taken pace, and that there
was every prospect of those islands becom-
ing as prosperous as they had hitherto
been. Under the new rfgims they were
likely to be formidable rivals to the Aus
tralian colouies-coIonies which had grown
up giants, and which England might well
be proud Of, for SO long as they renamed
integral portions of the empire, England

West Indian merchants, and when we
were obliged to make the West India
Docks TO Keep up a rivalry with those of
the East Indies. The West Indies, as they
all knew, had been in very great difficult
ties in fact, no country in the world had
gone through a greater or more severe
struggle. They had wealth untold; they
had the lie aiding men Of this country as
Governors, ami their Members of Parlia-
