Excerpt from Western Wanderings, or a Pleasure Tour in the Canadas, Vol. 2 of 2 Railway joining all the large towns in that part of the Province, brings them within a few hours of each other, and a trip we should have taken several days to perform, may now be accomplished in as many hours yet but a few months have passed since we left the country. Thus rapidly do all material improvements progress in the Canadian Peninsula. Full of promise as is the whole land, that, after all, is the garden of the province - the heart, the soul of that great country. It should no longer be called a colony-through ignorance, conceit, and mismanagement, the name of colony has become odious in the ears of Englishmen. Canada is a mighty country, attached to England, though neither England's slave nor England's school - boy, but full of vast internal resources, prosperous, contented, and happy, and in habited by many loyal men, sincerely devoted to Eng land's sovereign and their sovereign, and anxious to remain connected and in amity with their brethren in the older country, whence they themselves came forth. But they demand, as one of the rights of men, the right of governing themselves without the vexatious inter ference of those, who, knowing nothing practically of their condition, wishes, and prospects, and living four thousand miles off across the Atlantic, have quite enough to do to govern the mother-country to the satisfaction of her inhabitants. Such I consider, as I have endeavoured to explain in a few words, are the true relations between England and Canada.
