Herg, they are.—Give ‘ fhfem to all your r'e?dm 5 that s %0 4ll chat can read, in the King's dominions. it T h . 1. We fhould reftore Canddz; becaufe an uninter- rupted trade with the Indians throvghouta vaft coun- try, where the comimunication by water is (o eafy, would encreale our commerce, aiready tog great, and occafion 2 largg additional demand for our Maaufac- tures, * already too dear. 4 ‘ .~ 'z, We fhould reftore it, left, thro'a greater plenty of beaver, broad brimmed hats become cheaper to thatunmannetly f&, the Quikers. 3. We thounld reftore Canada, that we may foon " have a new war, and another opportunity ot {pending ” two or three millions a year in America ; there being great danger of our growing too rich, our Edropean . expences not being {ufficient to drain our immenfe treafurcs. ; ! 4. We fhould reftere it, that we may have occa- fion-conflantly to employ, in time of war, a fleet “and army in thofe pars ; for otherwile we might be too ftrong at home. : : 5. We fhou'd reftore it, that the French, may by eans of their [ndians, cArry on, (as they have done for thefe 10p years paft, even in times of pewce be tween the iwo crowns) a conftant {calping war againdt our colonics; and thereby flint_their growth : for, otherwile; the children might in time bé as tall a8 their mother . . I o5 : © ;6. What the’ the blood of thenlgads of unarmed ®nglith farmers, furprized and affsffinated in their fields; of harmle’s women 2nd children murdered in their beds ; doth at length cail for vengeance ; --what tho’ the Canadian meafure of iniquity be full, and if ever any country did, that country now certainly doés, deferve the judgment of extirpation: —yet let fiot us be the executioners of Divine juftice ; it will look as it Englithmen were revengeful. 7. Our colonies, 'tis true, have exerted themfelves beyond their firength, on the expetlations we gave them of driving the French f.om Canada ; but tho’ we ought to keep faith with our Allies, itis not ne- cefary with gur children. That might teach them * {againft Sciif ure) to put their traff iz Priaces: Let %em learn to truft in God, 8. Should we not reftore Canads, it would look 8¢ if our ftatefmen had cizrage as well as oar foldiers; but what have ftate{men to do with courage ? Their proper charaller is wi/don. : i9. What can be éraver, than to fhow all Europe we can sfford to lavifh our baft blood as well as our treafure, in conquefts we do not intend to keep? Ha\'re we not plenty of Howe's and WoeLrFE’s, &c. &c. in " every regiment. ro, The French have long fince openly declar’d, *que-les Anglois & les Frantois font intompatible dans cette partie de £ Amorique ; that our peopie and theirs were incompatible in that part of the con‘inent of merica : gue rien n'eloit plus important @ l'etat, qne de delivrer leur colonie dy fackeux voijinage des Angioisy’. that nothing was of more importance to France, than delivering its colony from the troublefome neigh- bourhood of the Englifh ;” ' to which end, there was an avowed proje€t on foot. ‘puar chaffer premicroment les Anglois de la Nouvelle York;® *o drieve vae Englifh in the firft place out of the province oif New Yorky’ &5 apres la prife dela capitale il fallsit(fays thefcheme) Ja BrULEK &’ RUINER / pays jufqa’ &' Orango;’ “and after taking the capital, to burr it, and ruin (that is, . make a defart of) the whole country, quite up to Al- bany.” Now. if we do not fairly leave the French . 2 - * Every Indian now wears a woollen blanket, a lin —— - ——. e s A, nen fhirt, and cloth flockings ; befides knife, a hatchet, and g gun ; and they ufe a variety of oth-r European and India goods, which they pay for in feins and furs. 1 Thisreafon is ferioufly given by fome who ds not wifp well to the colenies: But, is it not toa like the S gyptian Politicks praftifed by Pharoab, defireying the young males to prevent the inireaft of the children of Cdfrael 2 3 \ Gontaining th Frefbel Advicer '~ -in Canads, till they havea Favourable opportunity of pu.trir.lg their surning snd ruising (chemes mexecanin, will it not look as 1f we weré afraid of theq. - 1t. Their hiftoridn, Charlevéix, i his IVih bock, alfo tells us, that when Cinida was formerly taken by the Englifh, it was a queltion at the cowrt of , W raace, whether they fhould endgavour to recover i for, fays he, “Bien de gensdoterent i Pan avdit fair wre veritable perte ‘mapy thought it was not really s lofs.” But tho’ various realons wére given why it was fcarce ‘zf& recovesing; “Je Joul mative (fayslic) " Anglois de fe remdre trop puiffans — "etpit plus que JufRjant pour moys engager a recouvrer " Quebee, a queigue prix gae ce fut ;° ‘the fingle mative of preventingthe incréal€ of Engiifh power, was more than fafficient to engage usin recovering Quebec, what price o ever it might coff us.’ Here we fec the high valae they puton chat country, and the reafon -af valning is - © highly. Let us then, eblige themin this (to them) -fo important an article, and be affured they will xeger npraw urgrateful. 1 will not diffemble, Mr. Chrozicle ; thatin anfwer to all thefe reafons and motives for reftoring Canada, I have heard one that appears to have fome weight on the other fide of the queftion. It is faid; that na- tions, as well s private perfons, fhould, for their bonous’s fake, take care to preferve s confidence of tharafior : thatit has always been the charaller of the Englifls to fight ftrongly, and negociate weakly ; generally agrecing to reftore, at & peace, what they ought to have kept, and to keep what they had better have reftored : then, if it wouid really, according to the prececding reafons, be prudent and right to re- itore Canada, we ought, fays thefe objeors, to keep it ; -otherwife we ffall be inconfiffent with ourfelves. | fhall not take upon myfelf to weigh thefe different reaflons, buc effzr the whdle to the confideration of the public. Oanly permit me to fuggef, that there is one method ‘of avoiding fairly ‘all fuwre difpate sbout the ety of keeping or reflering Canada 3 and that is, Jet 21 #ever 12ke it. The French ftill hold out at Montreal and T'rois Rivieres, in hopes of fuc- cour from Frauce. Let us be but ¢ Zitle tso late with our fhips in the river St. Lawrénce, fo thatthe enemy may get their fupplies wp next fpring, a5 they did the laft, with reinforcements fufficient to enable them to recover Quebec, and these is an' end of the queftion..
