:an aching -
lettiematien of our readers we give the fol-
lowing editorial article from its columns.
We extract and publish it that our people
may bear both sides of such an important
question :—
' THE PAST AND THE rassitter,
In reviewing the past, we find muelt to
be grateful few when we consider our pr.
sent position. That we have been all along
misunderstood abroad, is perfectly plain to
any ono conversant with the occurrenees
of the past few Years. Our people have
been looked upon more in the light of
demi-savages, than intelligent beings, and
because it happened that our intercourse
with the outside world has been necessari-
ly limited, on account of our isplated posi-
tion, we have been deetned a people so
simple that our judgment was not thought
of sufficient importance to be regarded in
Matters that concern our immediate wel-
fare, as well as that of our children in the
future We are charitable enough to be
lieve that this grievous wrong has been un-
wittingly done to our people, although it
is hard to conceive how twelve to fourteen
thousand souls should be forgotten, as
they apparently were, in the late tratteac-
tions that took place relative to this erten-
try. In taking up our pen at this time, we
desire to calmly view our position: and, in
dealing with the past, it is one wish to put
aside all hard feelings, and we will en-
deavor, So far as lies in our lower, to pro-
mote aunty and union amtingst all. classes.
Our forefathers niade this country what it -
is at the present day, enduriug hardshipst
and toil without murmuring, and suffer--
ing, in many cases from savage hands.—
Iden? itied as it is with the Hudson Bay Uo.,
in all the many branches connected with its
trade, we were taught to look up to and
reepect its firm of government, and in the
annals of the North -We at there are few
instances of insubordinati in and lawless-
ness en record amongst the natives of the
country. Our wants were few and simple,
and living as we have been aceustomed un-
til lately, 111 perfect amity With each other,
without respect to nationweity or religion,
we never felt the necessity for any deep
or stringent term of jurisdictien. Afi
strangers began to settle in our midst,
}weever, ditimulties became more fre-
quent. Our laws began to be found fault
with. Still the grumbling was more on the
side of new -comers than that of old set-
tlers. At last our laws te ere defied, otte
government and oar people reviled
abroad, and this by parties who sought to
teach us that our position was a miserable
one, and that a paradise of freedom and
enjoyment awaited only our put-
ting , forth our hands to grasp it.— a
Like -the apple presented to our first
parents, so were the fair promises ef agi-
tators put before our people until differ -
fl es arose anwegst us—sommet)were for
tins, others for that. In the Meantime a
pressure was brought to bear outside with-,
out our sanetion or concurrence. Our
rights were canmeesed by parties who car-
ed little or nothing about them, and fin-
ally an arrangement was entered into to
transfer this country and people to another
Colony without our being consulted in the
matter at all. AVhile we admit that peti-
tions left hoer praying for a change of
government, (our late one being found too
weak) yet we must say, that it is quite
evident we were the principal parties to be
consulted in any proposed change for us.
We were thus in a peculiar position,looked
up n apparently as unfit for. self-govern-
ment ; we found ourselves about to be
placed at the mercy of a few then ; in fact,
our future destiny to be controlled by
those who had little if any interest in our
erosperity. but who en tho contrary seem-
ed to regard the welfare of proepective
emigrants more than that of tho actual set-
tlers in the country. This having taken
place, our late -government was dead to all
intents and narposes, unless, indeed, we
had allowed it to hand us over as a chattel,
or "serfs" to est e, cDougulEs words,to the
incoming one. Our course wag a plain one,
and needs no jui tifteation from our pen.
While retaining a.1 our loyalty to the
Ceown (if England, every particle of man-
hood in our comp' sition rebelled against
being handed over to strangers. It is ene
thing accepting a a 'fleet:Von, and another
being ushered pmemptorily into it. In
the former we enter into the engagement
with our eyes optn, and it would be our
own faille a we. had causes for regret after-
wards. In the latter casse, however, we
might have every reason for regret ; imag-
inutile wrongs would be likely to spring
up—our union with Confederation would
not be a sincere one—heart-burnings and
oliscontent would be very apt to follow.
As it is, our position is more dignified ;
etir rights as Brittsh 'subjects will be res-
pected—a union with Canada is much more
otkely to be on a stronger basis, and we
would feel greater security for our future
peace and prosperity. We now stand as a
people united ; a Government formed in
which we have a direct voice. Had we
been in this position when the negotis-
ttons were goine on regarding this conn -
try; we probably would have been con-
eulted ; and, indeed, one of theprincipal
patties in the tratteaction. We were not,
however, and inasmuch, as we could -not
anitedly as One body put forward onr
efaims, we were ignored. As we are situ -
:nod at present. we can treat with Canada
eu a totally different footing from the -one
we were in a few nionths since—with more
lignity to onrse.ves, and commanding the
respect of those eith whom we are asked
to 1,rin hands. To bring shout this, how.

even now, such a want of knewhetge cot -

requirements of great importance to us
would have been received with a deaf ear,
simply because they would not have been

that otherwise we would most probably

recriminate on the past. If blunders have
been committed let the present and future
aid in remedying them. There is little
use crying over spilt milk, although we
eertainly have been the greater lasers in
the operation. We would advise our
friends of the press in Canada, to devote
themselves to the task of uniting this
people with their own, rather than dwell-
ing upon what has been done, and which
cannot be undone. Does it show a concil-
iation towards us to keep wait:Many call-
ing its by tiames that would embitter the
least sensitive of minds, one would think
we were the parties who had injured in-
stead of having been injured. Rather let
the Canadian press indulge in a more Mate_

We would- only say one word to our
people before we finish. Let all classes
and creeds in tbe settlement remember
that our cause is a common one—the hap-

settlement is intiinately c nnected with

Let the union now existing become firmer
every day. Let the day once more shine
as of old, when political :minions could not
interfere with our ties of frendship. We

ON THss WAR, PATH.
THE TRIP FROM COLLINGWO OD
SCENES AND INCIDENTS BY THE
• WAY.
(From the Tor -onto Teleg. rai.h.)
ON 1:TOARD THE ALGOMA.
Thursday, May 5, 1870.
The Georgian Bay, Lake Huron and
Lake Superior have been pretty well wrtt
ten about during the last year or two. Al-
most every one who has made the trip has
looktd upon it as an absolute necessite
that he should. add his quota to the met
fund of information regarding this, whichae
strange to say, remains still an almost env
known region. In these circumstances, it
is not needful that I should say much ab-
out it. But from what I have seen—and
I am within sight of the Bruce mines —1
can safely assert that the Georgian Bayds a
pretty extensive sheet of water. But here
and there are seattered innumerable little
islands. Some times the scene is .sugges-
tive of the Beautiful, hut it is a mere pas-
sing suggestion; for on proceeding, the
phenomenon takes something of a utilita-
rian :form, and all that can be said of the
vast Territory is what the old Prophet
said if his—'whose stortes_are of iron, and
out f whose hills thou mayest dig brass,'
A More sterile scene than that presented
by the shores of the Georgian Bay, mortal
eyes never looked upon. Endless rocks
and sta.nted trees land now and then, at
long intervals, a sickly -looking cottage, is
about all that could be said on this score. :
a
But to revert to my journey. The first
subject worthy of notice is.
THE ALGOMA,
which its a neat, tioly, clean, comfortable
veasel. Of chars° she was packed full of
men—loaded almost to the gunwale with
government stores; and one . had con-
siderable diffieulty tn moving abontat all,
still every effort was made by Mr Car-
ruthers, Capt Serums; and the indefatigable
aceomplished systematic stewardMr
Serena, to Make things as comfortable as
possible, and they succeeded wonderfully
in the process. And this leads me to
speak ef WrYet,Low PASSENGERS.
Of those there are three hundred several
varieties, and first and nuoit notable were
the French half breeds and French Canadi-
-ane, road makers, Ina their way to Fort
William. Of these there are upwards of a
hundred on board, and many of them just
look like men who could work on an imag-
inary road, deg with :imaginary shovels and
pickaxes, laid with imaginary macadam,
and finished at any motnent, any Imply
may be pleased to unagine. On rueaday
night, on _which night we sailed about five,
o'clock, the half-breeds were in glorious'
trim. They were all more or less intoxi-
cated, and they enjoyed themselves nobly. :
They threw aside their netural retiring-
ness and danced and capered and yelled
the war cry, and wrestled and hugged each
in the most animated style •, but in the
morning all this was over. The Spitits. had
evaporettd, and they bewook themselves tet
corners where they lay looking repentant
and unhappy like men who had done
wrong and Were ashamed tolook the world
in the face. The French Cana,diatts con-
ducted themselves in a muchutore,evenly
style. They have chattered and sung and
-danced and eaten as only French Cana-
dians on• sotneth ng which is French only
an ; and the equanimity of the men has
been surpassed only by one thing, the
potnposity of the bosses Anything more
self-cemplacent, more self-sufficient, than
is illustrated by one of these bosses, was
.never seen. Be struts abut& with the

the blasting 1 owder was left behind. Fur
there is still before us the diffitulty at
THE SAULT sTE MARIE cartel
and as os e near ti is Rubicon the import-
ance of the cliffitulty becomes more ap-
parent. For if the Algoma is stopped at
this mid of the canal, ,it may put a period
to any Red River ex putt tioin, at least this
season. For such a step would anyolee
the matter going the rounds of two cir-
cumlocution 4 dikes, and the Barnacles ie
the one at Otti-twa have all along, in thee
natter, proved thernselvee so truly,
'Barnacles indeed,' that the centin-
itency to which I have referred would place
matters in a very am kward pesthole Im-
mediately before the sailingof the Algoma,
a telegram was received from Ottawa, to
the effect that if the vessel was stomped a tue
should immediately he des; etched to Owen
sound, with telegraphic messages to the
Government. Moreover, the officers of the
Aleorna were orderea that if they got
thro mit he canal, they werenot to pro d o
Fort William, but to remain at the wester!,
end of the canal until further orders. Th.
reason for this order is evidently the stream
stispicioo, that exists in the minds of the
autherities, that the Chicora will be stopp-
ed. In this case the cargri of the Chicon
would be trausferred across the Portage, a
distaune of three miles, or. by barges a dis-
tance of about four elites, to the Algoma,
by which it would be trausperted to Fort
William. Hewever, to -night will settle
the question as to tlae Algoma getting
through, and in view of the difficulty with
the Chicora. I will remain over atthe Slott

ple of the village minsisting of a few

also serves -as a post o 'ice; there is ale° a
Jomparatively neat lit ;le wooden church,
and down on the moo gai -of the channel—
which is very narrow nere—in a sheltered
nook, is a little grave y ad. The appear-
ance of the grave yard struck me particu-
_arly. In plate of the ordinary metnoria.
of wood or stone there were erected minks-.
cure chapels, carefully roofed with bark.
with a cross on end of the ridge and it
was evident that, a considerable amount oi
ettention is paid to the chapels being ker
in a proper state of ).epair. Front a con-
versation eith a native, I learned tine

Four months ago, an 'Lillian died, and was

ed their tent by the side of the grave, and
watched there six long dreary weeks. --
Every morning they placed a little food iaa
a hole near to where he lay. The children
did their every endeavor to fabricate little
tons, and the squaws denuded themselves
all their little trinkets and bits of tile
bon, to be placed iu the hole. It seems as if
they waked for some manifestation ef ap-
preciation from theedea,d, but none came;
and. at last, after a wail long and loud,
the poor creatures struck their lent and
olisappeared in the vt000ds. What a com-
