The Attache

CHAPTER IX
10/13

Lord love you! if you was to write like Scott, and map the human mind like Bacon, would it advance you a bit in prefarment?
Not it.

They have done enough for the colonists, they have turned 'em upside down, and given 'em responsible government?
What more do the rascals want?
Do they ask to be made equal to us?
No, look at their social system, and their political system, and tell 'em your opinion like a man.

You have heard enough of their opinions of colonies, and suffered enough from their erroneous ones too.

You have had Durham reports, and commissioners' reports, and parliament reports till your stomach refuses any more on 'em.

And what are they?
a bundle of mistakes and misconceptions, from beginnin' to eend.
