_ _-. «1". caravan-’grtsrâ€"yciac-m. ism. ~x .l‘g'. men present will call upon him to address. the meeting. [Hoary hear] ' Mr. S. M. JARVIS-said;lhat_ Mr. Ca‘pre‘ol,the gentleman who had initiated this great work. was present. and. he thought. oughtto lay the matter before the meeting. Mr. A. MORRISON. M.P.P., also expressed a wish that Mr. Capreol should be called upon to speak.'_ Mr, F. C. Cannon. came forward amidst general applause. He said he should endow your to present as clear a view as he Could of the necessity for this great' war-k going into operation, The project had exoited much at- tention in other cities besides Toronto. The citiesvof Montreal and Quecec and the as‘pi'ing city of Ottawa were all on the alert, being de- sirous that the canal‘ should connect Lake Huron with the Ottawa river. which would entirely annihilate the city of Toronto’s interest in it.'- It was that interest he now stood for- ward to advocate, and he asked the men of property, the merchants. the mechanics. and the labourers of this city to co-operate with him in pushing this great work to the utmost. until it was carried through [Applause.] The proposed Georgian Bay Canal, to connect the waters of Lakes lluron and \Ontario. would take pretty nearly the same line as the Northern Railroad, exoept that on the Ridges it would go a little eastward of the railroad track. At these Ridges there occurred the only formida- ble obstacle which the work had to encounter. A very deep cut would there be necessary. and some engineers had made use of this cir- cumstance to throw- a damp upon the enter- prise, saying it was impracticable. However. he ['Mr Capreol] had in his possession a docu- ment from a, most able engineer, now in the employment of the Government, stating there was no impracticability in it: that it. was a matter only of pounds, shillings, and pence. And‘it was to overcome that difficulty in pounds. shillings and pence. that he now asked the cO-operation of all who felt it to be desirable that the work should be carried through. He would not enter upon the engineering aspects of the work. Those Would be adverted to by the engineer. His [ML Capreol‘s'] was the financial department, And he could more easily perform his duties as the financial man on his work than he did on the Northern lRoad. When he comm'euced that work, he scarcely knew how to turn hirnsslf. He was called a madman. People went to his wife to :get her to prevent him from going to Montreal on such a mad scheme. and apartments wore ordered for him. he was told, in the Lunatic Asylum Brit he had overcome the difficulties of a work commenced under such circum- stances ; he commenced it with £250, and be. fore the Work was over his name was on £44,000 of paper for the preliminary expenses. It was doubtful whether be h d been treated as he ought to have been treated. while he had seen others wallowiugin the wealth created ~-from that undertaking. Nevertheless. he had the courage to push on this other undertaking. which he thought was of the'utrnost importance for the benefit of this city. Mr. Capreol went, on to show the advantages which would result from the undertaking. In addition to the local advantage it would confer on Toronto in givâ€" ingigtuuequallcd hydraulic powers, making it ~tl first manufacturing city in Western Ca- n (la. the canal was of the utmostimportance in connection with the national defences of the country, as 'it would afford a safe means of transportation for troons to the upper lakes. In this View we would be entitled to look to the Imperial Government to assist the work .â€" He ‘adverted also at some length to the im- portance of the canalas a channel for the trade of the Great li’est. and. in connection 'with the Pacific Railroad. as a channel for the trade of India and China to pass through Cars mada on its way to Europe. He expressed his regret that so few of the prominent commercial men of the City were present to give their countenance and support to the undertaking. and concluded by repeating that it only re- quired courage and persovorauce to overcome ‘the difficulties which were in the way of the . successful completion of the work.â€" [Applaust Mr. Kivas Tully, who had entered the hall while Mr. Capreol was speaking, was next cal- led upon to address the meeting. He said he ‘Iiad't‘aken an interest in this project during the last fifteen years, having in 1846, along with Dr. Rees. explored the Ridges, with a view to examining the practicability of bringing the waters of Lake Simcoo to Toronto. In 1855 aconveution of merchants from ‘the cities of Oswego. Milwankie. Chicago and Toronto, met here and passed a resolution that it was neces- sary for the trade of the West that a channel should be opened between Lake Huron and Lake Ontario for vessels of a thousand tons “burden. He (Mr Tully) was entrusted with the survey which was ordered by that conven- ‘tion. He took two years to perform it. and his report had been before the public for the last three years. The matter was still felt‘tp be one of much interest. not onlyin Toronto, but in other places. He had in his possession one or two letters which would show the light in which persons at a distance looked upon the work. The first he would read was from Mr. Cracker, a prominent merchant and ex-Mayor of Oswe- go, in reply to a letter he had addressed to him, asking if he held the same viOWS in 1860 as he did in 1855. ' lVIr.~ Rowland Burr said that those present were Well aware that he had taken very great interest in the Georgian Bay Canal. (Cheers.) Indeed. he believed that if any one was to menâ€" tion the words ‘ Georgian Bay Canal ’ while he was asleep that he would instantly start up. for sleeping or waking, by night or by day. he had thoughtof nothing else. (Laughter and ap- plause.) Ile had spent a very great deal of time (1 money in regard to the undertaking, and 11 held in his hand the report of the sr-lect com- mittee appointed by Parliament to consider the question. and of which the late respected Mr. Joseph Hartman was the chairman. That com- mittee reported in favour Of commencing the work. He LMr. Burr] had assisted in the sur- voy of the entire route of the proposed can-d. and be had found no engineering diflicullies to speak of brit what could be easily overcome. The entire work could be finished for twenty- eight million dollars. Mr. Burr their went on to refer to the advantages that would accrue to TOronto from the building of the canal, and said that there would he falls of water fortv feet in height within the city. which would be highly beneficial, and give an impetus to manufactures of various kinds. Mr. J. B. Robinson, M.P.P. said he did not intend to make a speech when he entered the meeting. but he had been called on to move the resolution be held in his hand. He Was sorry to see so few Of those who had signed the requisition to the Mayor present at the meeting. He thought the undertaking was one of great importance. and ought to be pressed on the at- tention of the Government. the Legislature, and the public generally. He then went on to argue, that after the Canal was constructed VPS- sels of-1,000 tons could proceed from Chicago to Liverpool withoutonce breaking bulk, where- as by the Welland and Erie canals at the ore- sent time. vessels had to.be unloaded at Buffalo and Troy. Another great result would be, that the distance between Chicago and Liverpool would be shortened one‘tliirdâ€"a saving of about 830 miles. Vessels would by the propo- sed route escape the dangers of Lakes Erie and St. Clair, and the St. Clair flats. Another great advantage would be that ship-building would be commenced on the borders of Lakes Huron and Ontario. [Applauso.] He had also to remind the meeting, that the lands on Lake Superior might remain unsettled for one hundred years, but if the government could be prevailed on to make the'proposed grant. they tiled in a very short space of time. ight be so l Robinson after urging upon the meeting your'children. U necessity- of endeavouring to procure the carrying trade of the Great West moved the fol- lowing resolution : “ That the construction of a ship canal unit- “ ing Lakes Huron and Ontario, is desirable as “ well as on local and national as on mercantile “ grounds, and that the present is a most oppor» “ tune period for again bringing the project on- " der the consideration of he citizens of Toronto “ and the members of the Provincial and Impo- “rial Governments.” ' Lieut. Col. Jarvis, in socondiug the resolu- tion, said that the people were indebted to Mr. Caprool for the Northern Railroad, and many L» ya xii..- n. ~ .>. _- .. . built the citizens would see the ships pass along 1 I .x "2 trim:- rw‘si 1 '..~".' * '- .m 4'..b’:‘..'!' â€". ,...‘ 'u' ' ~ ’1 \r' _ 1.5.1 J; a ."tv uo'douvbt‘ceuld rememberhow‘, cpldly the. public looked upon it‘wh‘en Mr. ‘Ca’pi‘ebl first advoca- ted it.

[Laughter ] He was OppOSed to the undertaking. because he thought Mr Tully and Mr. Capreol had an interestiii getting it through. but considered that Mr. Burr on tlie'suhject was what he [AldX'Nasuiitli] was on the Temper. an‘ce questionâ€"sincere. [Applause and laugh- ter.] He was opposed to the building of the canal and would oppose it even if he stood alone. [Applause] ‘ The resolution was then put and carriedmuly Aid. Nasmitli.’ Mr. Burt and three or four oth- ers voting against It. .Mr. A. Morrison, M.P.P., moved the next resolution, as fOIIOWs :â€"-â€" “ That the results which may be expected to accrue from the completion Of the canal, are sufficiently varied to justify the active co-opera- ' tion of all; it will command the immense and increasing trade of the Great West; it will af- ford extciisivo water-power for manufacturing purposes : it will stimulate ever}r branch of in- dustry, improve the .value of the district through which it passes. promote In an espe- cial manner the prosperity 'of Toronto. and add to the inducements which aiready exist to render Canada a desirable home for emigrants of all classes.” I ~ ‘ Mr. Morrison said he ddvocated this work in the intereth of this cityra‘nd of 'he county which he represented, which in this instance were identical. He' had been an advocate for its con- structionsevon years ago. and had sudceeded in obtaining a charter for.it from the Legislature, his own name appearing in the list of Directors. All that was wanted was money to constructit. and he thought Mr. Capreol should have stated more clearly how the $22,000.0th was to be raised. He had voted ~ for a‘ grant of four mil- lions of acres to build the North Shore Railroad. and he would be prepared to vote ten million acres to build this work. As to incurring debt for such works. he was bold enough to tell this meeting that he did not Want to see the counu try out of debt. because no people‘ out of debt could be a progressive people. He thought our children should bear a portion of the burden for the improvements we made. after we were dead and gone. The country was now in debt $58,- 000.000, but he was willing to vote to-inorrow for $20,000,000 more to build the Georgian Bay Canal. Mr. Morrison concluded by ex- pressing his regret that more of the prominent commercial men of the city were not. presentto move and second resolutions. instead of leaving that duty tO members of Parliament. He be- lieved that of some 50 who signed the requisi- tion, there were only two present, Mr. Robin- son and himself A Voiceâ€"There are also Mr. Crawford and Mn Betley. . The i‘esolu ion was seconded by Mr. G. Wyatt and carried by acclamation. - Mr. Crawford. M.P.I’.. came forward, in re- ply to general calls from the body of the meet- ing. He expressed his concurrence in the views laid before the meeting. with reference to the importance of the canal. but disagreed with Mr. Morrison as to the propriety of run» uiug the country further into debt. He thought we should see our way through our present dif- ficulties before incurring further obligations.
