Excerpt from British Supremacy and Canadian Self-Government, 1839-1854 The second group is composed of pamphlets and early newspapers, more especially the admirable collection of pre-confederation pamphlets in the Archives at Ottawa, and the Bell and Morris collections at Queen's University, Kingston. I cannot pretend to have mastered all the material supplied by the newspapers of the period but I have attempted to work through such representa tive journals as the Toronto Globe, the Montreal Witness, and the Kingston papers published while Kingston was capital of the united Pro vinces. I consulted certain others, French and English, on definite points of political interest, such as the reappearance of Papineau in politics in 1847.
