SIR, -*-I saw a most unpatriotic and -.most childishpiece of literature, which advoanted annexation to the United .z\ States, in your issue of 1st of May. Such a production is a disgrace to the author except, he be a naturalized or States,, vaad he teems ashamed of bis arae. He signs himself "Como." I must say I know no one of that nomenclature in this vicinity, and I anti one of the oldest inhabitants of this section of the Dominion. Is is ilIt6r 'Err"S"a 1Tn'425; r.•'rs:ca,+ IMIt-m quote Tom Moore, "Let it rest in the . shade." The inquiring and eagerpublio;should be inforuledi of the author of these .elegant productions, so i`loyal" and tetatley," and filed with deepest thought. It is scarcely worth the trouble of anyone taking notice '''of such political nonsense as'isexpressed in this communication of Mr. Como, and I hope, Mr. Editor, you will future not allow such a scribbler as Mr. Como, the gentleman ashamed of his name, to disgrace a decent, quiet, ntig SENTINEL, uy ,lingering its pages with such disloyal childishness. it is a fa 't, about as effeteand brainless a piece of scribble as •1 have ever read. There is- not a reason given in, it - that one can catch on to refute. In fact it nuts nne in miof n. lino or two in . - teres ,thoughtless person, who has been read- ing some of Mr. Goldwin Smiths pro- ductions, and without considering or -t . knowing anything of the facts of the matter has advanced some silly scribble and doubtless ,deemed his production namasterpiece of logic. He has 'not gi en a single reason why we Cana - •di ns should join this American. Union •—a nation that is about as ill governed as Russia, if not worse ; a nation in which both political parties bend the knee before the dynamiters •and other Fenian scoundrels, that they may secure their votes, and be in a ,,position to hold office, or in • other words, to use all means -for legally plundering the nation, if the term "legal" can be employed. Look at' the disgraceful mnnner the United. States winked 'at the Fenian raid of 1866, and never attempted to stop the mis- ,creants that invaded, or rather made a rade iih the vicinity of , Buffalo, till 4aB ritish-- f'i veriamen t; d id -net -•ask thie President of the United States, . but ordered him like a dog to have /these ruffians attended to or take the • consequences. From personal con:ver- satioa with some educated Americans I have met, they, without exception, .awash every Fenian and -Fenian sym- pathizer at the bottom of the Atlantic. Look again,' sir, at the Childish and :silly manner the American.., Senate ►killed the reciprocity • treaty, which 'was undeniably a greater benefit to -the Americans than -to the Canadians.• .Aroave,to be c,�erced ,to jo'in'a nation that is capable of showing suchaa spirit as is exhibited' in the McKinley •bill ? This • was a measure endorsed. by that crank Goldwin Smith, aided Eloy Farrar and Sir Richard Cartwright. • • • of the Globe, and Bunting & Co., of the 1lccil, and further they were assisted in their treachery by Mr. Erastus Wiman, of New York. • What are.. all •these . men ? They are dis- appointed and disappointed politicians and exasperated at their disgrace. It is . needless here to enter into this ,suh,,•'ect, as it .has been ,already well arentilated . in both the Conservative and Reform press eept by the 'dobe and 1Vail. These. two papers dare not tell the truth about the visits made to New York and Washington. If they the so termed Reformers 'would turn and destroy them. The • Reformers as, a .body are neither rebels • nor annexationists, but are ,just as loyal as the United• Empire Loyalists, .Mr. Como, a gentleman ashamed of himself, gives the idiotic, statement • copied from, crazy Goldwin Smith, that it is the evident destiny of Canada to join the* ' United States. This , is utterly untrue. Canada since the con federation • has her own destiny to follow. It is already cut out and pre- pared, and has such men as Sir John McDonald, Icon. Alex. McKenzie, the • late Hon. Geo. Brown, .-and Sir Charles supper to sketch the destiny so evi- dent, which ere many years willl raise her to be the preponderating. power in North America.. The shrewder of the American or- rather United States politicians clearly see this, and are striving by all and every means ...to avert it, -y compelling us, Canadians, .to join. ' teir miserable government, where ching, murder, swindling, and inn rurality as a rule hold sway Truly this avould degrade all Canadians to a par with Mr. Como, the gentleman aahanled of his name. ' I see by the papers that Mr. Laurier repudiates all idea of annexation. So does Mr. Mills and the Hon. Edward Blake, "-and his brotile'r Mr. and these are honorable mon, as indeed are the loyal Reformers as a body. But in all political parties, all the World over, there aro some wilo run into a dondition of extremists, in exactly such a dis- graceful planner as Mr. Como, the gentleman ashamed ' of his name. Mr. Como seems quite a poetical • genius and gives 'us seine peculiarly brilliant verses that are evidently his own, and wreathe his brows with myrtle and laurel. What„ a pity the entire of God's creation do not know his name --he is so modest ! But to E. Brasher Sometimes it's worth know- ing to know that the knowledge on e maypossessin regard to some .lines of goods means a distinct satisfaction to : those who possess it. We refer 1 esnweially to those new cloth - urns a o y air, wenn ami; preacher is described as mounting the pulpit, for the scrihble is. evidently intended to portray these lines : "For common sense has ta'en the gait, And's off and up the cow gate On sic a day." or words to that effect. Discussion of political points is all well enough, but - treasonous ideas; leading to the dis- ruption of the British empire, should be tolerated in no periodical issued under the crown of Her Majesty.
