Synopsis
Excerpt from A Concise View of the Inland Navigation of the Canadian Provinces: The Improvements Already Effected, and the Inferences to Be Drawn From These, Towards Their Full Practicable Accomplishment, and Practical Value
As this seems something of a final law in our nature, it is needless to linger on its provisions, either to reason or regret. So far it fulfils, and we cannot doubt but in the most beneficial manner, the end in view. It has effected the commencement of good. The works already finished or in progress, have engaged us in the grand emulative strife of internal improvement; they have made us feel our strength they have brought victory and unlimited success within our grasp. When the level of pub lick opinion is raised, we may then speak in the language of fact and demonstration, without being suspected of visionary or perhaps designing extravagancies.
