CHAPTER Yd.
THE ciseeniyaia.
Why they treated our cleims to
feeir [respect :with Marked insult
and rudeness, I could never satis-
factorily determine, in any way that
could reflect honor on the speciei,
even plead an exCuse for is brutali
ty, until I found that this insolence
was more generally practised by the
low, unedacated emigrants from
Britain, who better understood your
claims to their eibility, than by the
nattves themselves. Then I discov-
ered the secret. -
The unnataral restraint whieh.so-
ciety imposes upon these people at
home, forces them to treat their
more fortunate hrethern with a ser-
vile deference which is repugetant to
their feelings, and is thrusZ; upon
them by the dependent circumstan-
ces in which they are placed. This
homkge to rank and education is not
sincere. Hatred and envy:lie rank!.
ling at their heart, although hidden
by outward obseqeiotisness. Neces-
sity compels their obedience ; they
fawn,arel eringe,end fl atter the weal th
cn which they depend for breed. But
let theta once emigrate,. the clog
whieb fettered them is suddenly re-
moved ; they are free; and the dear-
est privilege of this freedom is to
wreak upon their superiprs the lona
locked -up hatred of their hearts.
Tacy titink they can debase you ta
their level by -disailowing ali yotir
elaiMs to distinction.; while 06,
hope to exalt themselves • and tlicir
fellows into -ladies and gentlemen by
sinking you baek to the only title
you ieceived from 'Naturea=plain
-and wolnan." Oh, how
much morellonorable than their vul-
gar pretensions ! °
„I never ktlew the real diginity of
these simple epithets untilthy. wereiesultingly 'thrust upon as by the
workiwt'eelasses of ean:tda.
But froei this folly the native-
born Canadian is exaropt ; it is only
i)ist.ctised les the low -born Yankee,
o the Yankeened Bsitish peasant-
ry and mechanics. It originates in
the enormous reaction springiettout
fa -sudelett emancipation from a-
. etate of utter 'dependenee into one
, unrestrained liberty. .As such,
) 'pot oniy excuse, but forgive it, for -
the principle is founded in nature ;
-and, however disgusting and dis-
tasteful to these aceustemed to dif-
ferent, taeatatent front': their infe-
'lore, it is better than a bellow pro-
fess-lon of duty and attaeh merit urged
upon as by a false and unnatural
poeition. Stilil it is very irksome
-until you think more deeply upon it;
and then it serves, to ,atuuse rather
than to irritate..
Seveateen years has made fts gi•eat
difference in the state of society in
Canada., as it has in its COM mercial
and politic:al importa-uce. When we
came to -ea rl ad a, _ society Was Com-
poSed of elements Which did not ale
way amalgamate in the best possis
Lie manner.
1
We wet e 'reckoned no addition to
the society ef 0 . Authors mac
1 iterery people they held in supreme
detestation ; and 1 was told by la
lte:y, the verv first time I appeared
in company, that "he heard that
wrote -books, but she could tell the
that they did not _want a Mrs. Trol-
lope la Canada."
-I had net then read Mrs. Trol-
lope's work on America, or I should
have comprehended at oace the -cause -
of her indignation ; for she was just
seat a person. as would have drawn
forth thekeen satire of that far see -
observer of the absurdities Of our
eature, whose witty exposure of
American affectation has done more
towards producing a reformin that
retepect, than would have resulted
from a thousend grave animadver-
sions soberly written.

theme For this purpose they dis-
guise themselves, blackening their
faces, putting their clothes on hind
part before, and wearing herrible
masks, with grotesque cps on their
heads, adorned with cock's feathers
and bells. They then form in a reg-
ular body, and proceed to the bride-
groom's house, to the sound of tin
kettles, horns, and ',drums, cracked
fiddles, and all the discordant in-
struments they can collect together.
Thus equipped, they surround the
house where the wedding is beld,
just at- the hour when Ile happy
couple are supposed be about to
retire to rest—beating'upon the door
with clubs and staves and demand-
ing of the bridegroom admittance to

thereof to ieceive a cdtain su
