Repel by force any foreign encroachments on British dominions ! " But where .were these British dominions west of the Alleghanies? By treaty of Utrech, 1713, and Aix-la-Chapelle, 1748, Eng- land had acquiesced in the title of France to all of North America, exactly as Governor Gallisonniere had defined it in the order which we have just quoted. There was a dor- mant American title, that of the future people of America. It, Franklin expressed at Albany, thus : " Both the French and English now k...now that the great territory beyond the Appalachian mountains, on both sides of the Ohio, and between that river and the lakes, is one of the best of North America. The soil is rich and fertile, the atmosphere healthy, the climate mild; chase, fish, and game exist in abundance, and there are great facilities for commerce with the Indians ; and the lakes and great rivers open for hundreds of miles to inter- nal trade most advantageous water-ways. " Thus favored by nature, the territory will, without doubt, perhaps before a hundred years, be a rich, populous, and important possession, and be, either for France or England, a great addition to power." It must, in justice to Franklin, be stated, that these words were addressed to the British governor in New York, who had called the conference at Albany for the os- tensible purpose of forming a union of the North Ameri- can British Provinces, an object very dear to Franklin ; for he wanted the creation of some general authority over the narrow-minded, land-hungry, colonial governments ; 60 as to inaugurate his sagacious national policy.
