Seite 15 - The parliament of Great Britain sits at the head of her extensive empire in two capacities : one as the local legislature of this island, providing for all things at home, immediately, and by no other instrument than the executive power. — The other, and I think her nobler capacity, is what I call her imperial character ; in which, as from the throne of heaven, she superintends all the several inferior legislatures, and guides and controls them all, without annihilating any.
Seite 29 - Such an union would at once decisively settle the question of races ; it would enable all the Provinces to co-operate for all common purposes ; and, above all, it would form a great and powerful people, possessing the means of securing good and responsible government for itself, and which, under the protection of the British Empire, might in some measure counterbalance the preponderant and increasing influence of the United States on the American continent.
Seite 78 - QUEEN'S Most Excellent Majesty in Council. WHEREAS by °The Merchant Shipping (Colonial) Act, 1869, » it is (among other things) enacted that where the Legislature of any British Possession provides for the examination of, and grant of certificates of competency to, persons intending to act as masters, mates, or engineers on board British ships...
Seite 17 - I expected to find a contest between a government and a people : I found two .nations warring in the bosom of a single state : I found a struggle, not of principles, but of races ; and I perceived that it would be idle to attempt any amelioration of laws or institutions, until we could first succeed in terminating the deadly animosity that now separates the inhabitants of Lower Canada into the hostile divisions of French and English.
Seite 126 - If you want to save your Colony of Natal from being overrun by a formidable enemy, you ask India for help, and she gives it ; if you want to rescue the white men's legations from massacre at Peking, and the need is urgent, you request the Government of India to despatch an expedition, and they despatch it ; if you are fighting the Mad Mullah in Somaliland, you soon discover that Indian troops and an Indian general are best qualified for the task, and you ask the Government of India to send them ;...
Seite 15 - ... immediately and by no other instrument than the executive power. The other, and I think her nobler capacity, is what I call her imperial character; in which, as from the throne of heaven, she superintends all the several inferior legislatures, and guides and controls them all without annihilating any. As all these provincial legislatures are only co-ordinate to each other, they ought all to be subordinate to her; else they can neither preserve mutual peace nor hope for mutual justice, nor effectually...
Seite 79 - Where the legislature of any British possession provides for the examination of, and grant of certificates of competency to persons intending to act as masters, mates, or engineers on board British ships, and the Board of Trade reports to Her Majesty that they are satisfied that the examinations are so conducted as to be equally efficient as the examinations for the same purpose in the United Kingdom under the...
Seite 104 - Government to report on the organisation and the state of instruction of the guards of the various Australian States. Those reports point out much that I daresay might have been said with equal truth of our organisation here no more than 15 or 20 years ago, but I hope we have progressed here. The troops vary very much in quality, and are deficient as regards the departmental corps which are necessary to accompany them in the field, Army Service Corps and Ordnance, and Army Medical Departments. In...
Seite 129 - But it should never, in my opinion, be lost sight of, and advantage should be taken of all favourable opportunities to act upon it. There are two principles which ought, I think, as a general rule to be attended to in the distribution of Imperial honours among colonists. Firstly, they should appear to emanate directly from the Crown, on the advice, if you will, of the Governors and Imperial Ministers, but not on the recommendation of the local executives. And, secondly, they should be conferred,...
Seite 126 - Nile : it is with Indian Forest Officers that you tap the resources of Central Africa and Siam, with Indian surveyors that you explore all the hidden places of the earth.
