to be the fact that in the absence ,of inter-

is left to manage her own affairs as she
thinks proper. The amount of revenue and
the method of raising it are entirely within
her discretion. He tells us too that the Can
adian people are intensely loyal to the British
crown, and that very few Of them wish for
change of their political affiliations. Politl-
cal union with the United States, he de-
clares, is out of the question, for a great
many years to come at least.
Now, assuming these premises to be cor
rect, what is the prospect of Canada con-
sentiDg to allow us to dictate her customs
duties? A country to be free and independ-
ent must enjoy the powers of raising It's own
revenues in its own way, and OF expendlng
them in its own way. They lie at the very
foundation of freedom Take either OF them
away and the country becomes dependent, In
fact whatever it may be in name. At the pres
ent time Canada enjoys both of these pow
ers. An independent aud self reliant
people will never part with either of them
because In parting with either they
part with large measure OF their
freedom Therefore it is scarcely possi-
BILE that the Canadians will ever consent
that their customs duties and internal taxes
shall be regulated by the American Congress-
An arrangement of tariffs such as CONNER
cial union implies, can only come therefore
through joint agreement as the of
negotiation between the two countries. And
here steps in the different relations of the
two countries to England. On the one hand
Is country whose people are entirely loyal
to the British crown, whose business connec-
tions are and have always been with the
merchants and manufacturers of the British
empire and whose feeling and affections are
In the same direction. On the other is coun-
try whose merchants and manufacturers are
rivals of the merchants and manufacturers
OF England, a country which for years has
kept out to large extent by customs duties
the products of English looms and furnaces,
and which has recently declared in favor of
continuing this policy. Throwing out of
consideration the direct influence that Eng
land might exert what prospect is there of
these two countries with feelings toward
England Numerically opposite agreeing
upon the height and strength of the barriers
to be erected against British goods? 1t
seems to us, Notwithstanding Mr.. Wiman's
enthusiasm, that 1t Is very small, assuming,
Of course, that Mr.. Wiman is not mistaken
in his estimate of the strength of Canadian
loyalty to the mother country. Yet there
does appear to exist in Canada a strong sem
timent in favor of commercial union, not
withstanding its apparent incompatibility
with the intense loyalty to England which
Mr.. Wiman thinks prevails also. The ex-
PLANTATION may be that the Canadians do not
comprehend all that commercial uuion in
wolves, that they have concentrated their at
tention SO completely on the effect it would
produce on their relations with the United
States, that they have not noticed its posi-
Bile effect npon their relations with England,
or 1t may be that Mr.. Wiman has over-esti-
mated the strength of the Canadians loyal
ty to Great Britain.
