Sir, I tell you that these men dread : opposition in Parliament, and they have good reason to dread it. They know better than I know even that the vic- tory they have gained, so far from being really, as is asserted, a preference for SiaJohn Macdonald over Mr. Alexan- der Mackenzie, or a condonance of the - Pacific Scandal, much less a grand Con- servative reaction, is neither more nor less than this : that a small number of our people really a very small percent - °age have been temporari a?' 3eluded by the specious pretense of a national po1- icyeand have aecorded a verdict "in fa-. vor of the men now in po wen which, so soon as they awaken to understand what manner of men tiese are, and what sort of a policy it is which they are likely to bring down to the people of Canada they will be even more anxious • to reverse than they were to give in fa- vor of the present Goverament on the 17th of September last. (Loud cheers.) Sir, I said that these men dread oppo- sition. First, because they kuow their own weakness well. They know that the country has, very little confidence indeed in the men who hal the Pacific Scandal—in the man -wh an Lord Duf- ferin was obliged to declare in his des- patch to Lord Iiiraberley, was a man who had told him on_his oath of office and of his fealty as the sworn adviser of the Crown that he Was aosolutely inno- cent of all those thiues which Mr. Huntington had laid to his charge. They dread opposition iu the second place,be- cause they know that we -know them well, and how little entitted they are to the respect or confidence of the people, and besides knowing them, we do not fear them either in the House or out of. it. (Loud cheers.) They may outvote us, but I tell you, ancl I tell these men because I know that 'my -words will speedily come to their ears, that though they can -outvete, us they can neither be, many honest, many really ignore us nor brow -beat us on iii. the so-called Conser- the floor :of Parliament.
