To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
" Mr. Dent also says that he had " the most misty conceptions of statesmanship. " There were unfortunately few opportunities for reformers in those days to display statesmanly qualities. Mr. Dent has described them as " the maimed and bleeding under dogs in the fight among that crowd of venal and merciless sycophants. " There is no * need to show that Mackenzie's "conceptions" were statesmanlike. If they were not, the subsequent leaders of parties would not have adopted them as they did. It cer...tainly says something for his prescience and farsightedness as a public man, that he was one of the earliest advocates of British American Union, and it is to his credit that, in the Advocate of June 24th, 1824, in an article headed "A Confederation of the British North American Colonies, " he outlined the very plan of carrying it out that was afterwards adopted. Mackenzie had also a statesman- like " conception " of the commsrcial legislation best suited for Canada. In the parliamentary session of 1836, he carried an • Address to His Majesty on the subject of the restraints imposed upon the Province by the commercial legislation of the mother country.
