COMMERCIAL UNION IN NORTH AMERICA. From fht; Iimtnnice d,- Fiiuiiure Chrouklt. We have bef<jre us a phaiiiplilet, â€" or rather gniiie lett-er» aiid speeches in [lain- phlet fcrui â€" with tlie abnve title puhlish- eJ by .Mr. Eiastua Wiuiiui in New Yi^rk ; and we take a certain amount of pride in savin;,' that we have read that paniplilet throuyli, becaus*3 if patience be a virtue^ we certainly lay cLuin to haviii'^ been vir- tuous so far as performinsf tliat act of perusal ;;oes ; a very Ijtrge amount of pa- tience beiiiK required, to eu«ble us tojead souw thirty to (thirty-five pages of the nuist illo^ic«J argHiuents used to p^-ove the most impossible proimsitiun ever laid before the public, i )iir readers are well aware of our views u; on the ijuestii'U ot Coiiunerciid Union between Canada and the United States, and those views have _ _ been strengthened instead of altered by I ^ II the utterances of Mr. Wiman and his Vf 51 n a friciuLs. Had those utteninces been aiv- ji^ Jl ^( A a1 ^'" >>> favor either ot the principle of Free Trade, or of the advisibility of Canada becomini; annexed to the United States, they mijrht have been worth souie con- sideration ; but as illustratiii'^ the advan- tages to be yaiiied bv Canada from a com- nieri'ial union with the ^States, the tw/> reniaininij se[)arate iiations, there appesa to us to be an irrecvncilable dream or ro- mance only calculated to cause a siiule in the nund of any tliou'^-litful statesman. That Canada is still a part of the Brit- ish Empire seems to be completely ijjnor- ed in Mr. \Viman'» "plan of cann>aii;n," if we Biay luo the expression, i>r only hrietly alluded to as though the fact was of no consequence whatever rei;arilins{ the question iu point, whereas to our mind it is the very keystone upon which :Ul neKociations relatin;^ to commercial intercourse with ioieiuu countries must rest. It is perfectly true that the Moth- er country h.-us given u* the right to ar- range our own taritfs ;4.Iways with the proviso that we do nwt discriminate a^aiiut Great Britaiu : but the very mo- ment we do that, we iin.ke a declaratioy if ludepeiulanoe, and if iiei>ti.«ted in, ce.ise to remain a colony or to have any] part in the Empire. .\nd the Hon. Mr. " ym â-  1 ; Lonirley'g reuiarl*f ill his Uater of the'.'«th V dXUlSIla I ^I"'>-"'". 'hat he d-es not l>elieve "that â- * '' ^ ] (ireat IJrit.ain will interpose any tibstiicle "" to a C.iMinicroial Union between thetnit- cd Stales ami Can.ula, if the Canadian people irivc unnii.Htakable evidence of a desiio for it," simply mean «liat the Mother oountiy would offer no obstacle to Caiiaila's inde[>t'iidence il wo decided t<i aik i{t If coniiueruial union does not mean in the first [>lace, Canadian Independence, and secondly annexation to our powerful iKiijhlxir, we fail to see what it does mean ; and EiiLtlaiid under those circum- stances, njiyht. its Well be expected to consider C anadil :is belon>.;iiii; to her, and '.oianintue her protection in the event of ditlJculties, as to render the s;tnie service to the Uniteil States themselves. How Mr. Wiinan can ar><ue that by such an al- liai:ce Caiuuht could still remain a British colony, is quice beyond our coinprehens'u. To suppose that a colony can admit the products or manufactures of a foreign country free, while it impose ,\ duty up- on similar merehandise front the Mother country, is to suppose an anomaly which would be ludy piv|K>sterous folly. The whole tenor of the correspondence, so far as wo have been able to judi^e, endea- voi-s to pro*e that Canada and the Unit- ed States should no loni;er l>e c>'n.sideivd as beiiiij foreiijn countries one to the oth- er : but that the former should still cou- fcinne to regard the Mother country, so far as cojumerce is concerned, sis a for- eigner, and yet claim to remain a colony full of loyalty is an hypothesis both start- . lin,^' and iidicuK>us. T.et UH next coiMiiler the ipiestion from the intcmatioiial point of vie«,.i.s be- tween Canada amV the United States, supposini; for the sake i^t aninnieiit the former to bo an indcpciulent country. The pleas in favor of Commeivial Uuioii, when boiled down, arc lueroly in favor ,if the theory of Free Trade and ai^ainst that liiwiniL,' â€" what seems to us an impossil.li- ty â€" that the two nations iCanadli and the States) could loni; remain distinct, the inevitjible results which would follow commercial union would certainly be the ciiniplete extinction of the Dominion Fisheries and the just as sure ruin of her cotton manufactories: for as the Glouces- ter Fishermen would freely enter Cana- da's waters, and cany her fish to their own markets wUhuut jjurrliase, so we could never be e«pected to compete in cotton fabrics with a country which has thu niw material, coal and iroy at it.s v«ry doors. Further. ;i3 the St. Louis li >ard of Trade pnts it, with "uniform UuA's to 6<i (tossed by both countries for the iniposkion of duties on imports' (fritni outside nations) it is manifest that those laws and duties would be regulated by the majority, and we leave it to .i.>ar readers to decide in that case wheiher auch laws and duties would be formulat- ed at WiUihin>.;ton, the capital of a popu- lation of CO.000,000, or at Ottawa, the capital of a population under o,iH)0,000. Let us say in couclusioji, that with Caniula's annexatitw to the Stjites, coni- nierci d union would fcdlow na a matter of course, and be absolutley necessary : but without that annexation, and Cana- da remainin;; either as a colony of Creat Hritaiji, or even in her present stage of developiinent becoming independent, such C.i>mmercial TTnion is the most de- lusive ciiimera, or will->'-the-wisp, ever flaunted before the public mind. Whether from *iwanipy land or stay- nant ikxjI, or from the deatUy gaaes of city sewers, malarial jwisous are tlie .same. .\yer's -^!?ne Cure, taken accord- ing to directions, is a \varrauted siH;ciiic fol malarial disorders. 3«c(liaU.
