Among the "appearances" which # favor ~© the suspicion that Quebec may have the * wivantage in the arbitration," the Globe gives prominence to the Hon. D. L. Macâ€" euzrsox‘s having at one time been a resident of Montrealâ€"an extraordinary circamstance, whichâ€" ought to satisfy any reasonable man that he is thorvughly incapable ot doing otherwise than giying Quebec "the advanâ€" tage." Then exJudge Day *1s more than #a match for" Limâ€"says the Globe. In what * In dishonesty ? â€" In seeking what is Bot his own or the property of the Frovince? Burely a long and honorable career in private aad public life, at the bur, and on the bench, dispensing justice between maa and man, with a reputation heretofure unsullied, with a mind unimpeached tor iasâ€"with such a long training in the highest school of honor and impurtiality, Judge Day ought to be the very man who would enter on the solemn duty of aritrator Letween the Provinces with a full determination to cireumvent his associate ! Does anybody (in the Globe office) Lelieve> that such a ‘map would ap~ proach the performiince of such & duty with a | coascientious. resolve to discharge it hanestly ? Of course not! There is one ray of hope faintly struggling through this dark eloud of dismay which did not strike the vision of the Globe.. The Hon. Mr. Macâ€" Taz days of " Lower Canada domination" are not yet over. That grasping, usurping, aand plundering Province is preparing for anâ€" otherâ€"and we hope, though almost against hope, that it may be a finalâ€"hau!, from the well filled and . frequently plundered pockets of the meek anda long suffering Western Province. The Globe has bad a prevision of this awful calamity, and it takes the public into its confidence not only as to the tact, that is to be, but also as to the circumstances which have enabled it to . ""this discussion." But at the outset, we notice the distance trom Riviere du Loup to the junction with the E. and N. A. Railway, is ret down at 390 miles, on Mr.: Fuzxuixc‘s * suthority, who states at pp. 47 of his report, that his estimate of the distance by the North Shore between Quebec and Hahfax is fifty miles more than that of Major Roatxsox, he having made * an allowance for curvature " equal to about eight per cent. ; an allowâ€" ance which we think quite unjustifiable in the fuce of the exact figures given by Major Romtxsox, By this needless generosity on the part of Mr. Frewrxo the distance beâ€" tween‘the points named is increased by some twentyâ€"eight or thirty miles, the actual disâ€" tance being, according to Major Rostxsox‘s fignres, 362 instead of 390 miles, though as Mr. Fuexurso says: " Should the allowance * lor curvature (which ‘I am convinced is " ample) ultimately prove greater than ncâ€" â€" ** cessary, the estimates will at least possess ** the merit of erring on the safe side "â€"that is * safe"" ouly as to the: matter of cost, bu> most unsafe and deceptive in contrasting the merits of one line with anmother. ‘This distance would be trought down to less than i 340 milesâ€"making a saviog of over fity miles on Mr. FCzxtxo‘s estimate, if the route by the valley of.the Upsalquitch shall be tfound priacticable, as it is contended that it may be, We do not allude to this for the purpose of replying to the wnter in the Gazette, but _ merely to ~draw. . atâ€" lontiuu: to what we conceive ; to be an eminently fair principle to be observed in discussing this question, viz., to try Major Roatxsox‘s line by Major Rostxsox‘s figures, aad Mr. Fumxo’; life, or lines, by Mr. Frexâ€" mwo‘s figures. We are sensible of the deep 1aterest which the public bas in this question, and not insensible to the necessity of obtainâ€" ing further information concerning it, for it is desirable above all things that in a matter of such vast impor:ance the best conclusion should be arrived at. With respect to engiâ€" neer‘s estimates of cost, it is almost neediess to remark that they are of an entirely disâ€" tinct character from their estimates of quanâ€" titres and distances. The latter are based upon actual measurement, and if that be correctly rwade will always remain the same, whereas the former are ‘subject to all the Auctuations ol the traie and labot markets. Now, we have seen it stated, with what authority we do not know, that a certain Mr. Buozeex, an influential railway contractor, has offered to | build the Major Rostxsows line, or a great portion of it, for thirtyâ€"one or thirtyâ€"two thousand dollars per mile; and it this should prove a faet, we see no possible| reason why the cost, as estrmated by this, | that, or the other engineer, should enter into the discussion, further than as an index of comparison between the cost of different routes. Having already expressed our opinâ€" ion as to the impolicy of handing this national work over to a private company, and neither apace nor time permilting more lengthy re marks on our own view of the subject toâ€"day, we commend thearticle chnh:‘md to the attention of our readers, sati that in the end the decision arrived at will be that | which best accords with the interests of the | country at large. * * On no accasion will the names of Ud Advertisemonts bo inserted here.
