 i. titioti, as the trade hptwoen it and 2(N) millions of tlie Asiatic 
 rntv would be wonderfully preat ; and to the conclusion, warranted

 i"mniin c across the rc^iofis stretchini? from the serriated shores 
 of Pugct Sound to the waters of the jjrcat lsik.> of Canada, would

 8ubaeqnent to the date of this artiela, in March 1H33. Sir Kiehaid 
 Bronn presented a memorial to Earl Grey, then Prime liinistar. 
 and wrote two oamphlets. sugjeestinc a goremment consolidation 
 of the internal Elemental Transit of the country, aad makiaf the 
 ronreyance of persons, letters, and K<K>da, a joint aonree of rrveaor 
 to the State — whereby taxes and poor-rates would be re d nee d , fond 
 cheapened, mamul labour increMed, and capital distributed, la 
 1835 he orf^antscd Tri Ca?«TaAL AoaicriTcaAL 8i>cimr orGaiAT 
 Bbitai5 akd latLAKD. the most romprehensire institution ever 
 esUblisbed in the United K infdom for the protertion aad e munrat <- 
 ment of Hritish Afn^culture, and the production of ehaap bread <4 
 home <n>wth. And in tlie year followin»j. 1h:W, he cummencrd 
 th<^< uroccedinifs for the reriral of Scotti»h Hartmel nichu aad 
 Scottish liarunet duties in Nora Sootia aad >'ew Bruaswii-k which 
 are now in pron^i'ss towards a judicial iittte. 
 
 On the threshold of the first deTeiopment of ttie raat project which 
 this SvKoraia is written to proni«»!c. the laUnirs of Sir Uichard 
 Broun in the cause of the STi»tema«tc cwloninalum of the Tacaai 
 crown lands in North America, drew from a noble Knfiiah Baronet 
 now no more theae encourainnff obserrations — " Ynurs is a iraad. 
 " a ({lorious project. Ita influence extends orer a rast space b«»f h in 
 " the old world and in the new. It must afTect the destinies of 
 " hundreds of thousands of human beinfpi. not only now but for aces 
 " Tct to come. It is a jjiant labour, brinfrinfi care, anxiety, and u»il ; 
 " but an ardent mind like T0^»rs will be cheered on its onward coune 
 " bv the hi^h feeling irhicb the consciousness of a great duly per 
 " formed, and the bright giram of hope that ultimate •ucccm will 
 •• crown your indomiuble efforts cannot fail to brin|^.'* >> ^^^^^ 
 will be recollected that an American statesman, long since deceased, 
 predicting the importance that would one day be attached to the 
 junction of the Atlantic and IVifle Oceans' thus wrote:-— "Oa 
 "broad grounds this work has been well chsracterised as the 
 "mightiest erent in farour of the peaceful inUrcourae of nations 
 "which the physical circtimstances of the globe present to the 
 "enterprise of man. The whole world is intarested in this work. 
 " I would not speak of it with sectional, eren national feeling ; but 
 " if Europe is indifferent, it would be glory surpassing the oonqaest 
 " o( kingdoms to make thb greatest entarpriae erer attempted by 
 " knouui force entirely our own." 
 
 Ifkin Btaphmm penned theae reroarka, stoaro narigation and 
 nihrnf ■mmiiii had not began. Naithar did ha aontMn^lata »
