Now, when Carleton and Ottawa do as much towards the Canada Central, it will be time enough for the Ottawa people to blow about that road. 'lhe proof of the pudding is in the eating ofit. You recollect Mr Abbott's letter to Mr White, that the Canada Central wbn`d not undertake to carry their extension without a bonus from Renfrew ot $180,000 and a land grant from the government. Even then they would not pledge themselves to go on with the road. Now they are willing to kiss your hands and bow down tothe dust provided you kill the Kingston and and Pem- broke roed. Surely the men of Pembroke are more reliable than to desert ns and play Judas. We entered into this understanding loyalty and truly , with the intentiou_ot' building our road. Let the Canada Central people _ build their road. We have no objections for I be. lieve that there will be business enough for both roads. We, that is the people of King. ston, contend that running .a line of railway through the heart of both counties will so ma- terially serve the interests of both that it ought to be a joint project, a sort of mutual bene- cial enterpriee. Do drop me a line and let me know how things are progressing. There is one thing clear, it Benfrew and Pembroke stand true to us, both roads will be built. If however the Canada Central can kill us o', take my word for it the Canada Cen- tral will have obtained its object and ` new exactions wlll be made of the already plun- dered Oonnty of Renfrew before that road goes on. so "1. d.`, lge nu an:-I. .-.._.L 7 ii.}.u 1&3 ! `AU.-- luv ....-.

The British government is apparently leaving Canadian interests which are thus involved entirely to the decision of Cana- dian statesmen. The importance which the Canadian government attaches to the value of the sheries is well known; and the: country has every condence that Sir John Macdonsld will properly care for these interests. It must, we think, exercise a very_ benecal inuence both upon the American and Imperial governments to nd political parties in Canada so thoroughly united as they are in upholding the rights of Canada inythe sheries against American encroachment. There is not s warmer defender of these rights in the House of Commons than Mr Mackenzie, the leader of the opposition. He is an Upper Canadian, and has Upper Canadian sentiment at his back. though in Ontario the people have not the direct interest in the prosecution of the sheries that the people of Lower Canada and the Maritime provinces have. As for the latter they have the strongest interest in this question, since the living of entire popu- latious in the eastern provinces is concerned in the sheries, the see coast people being almost entirely dependent upon them. Cn- nada is a unit on this question. and under the provisions made for coming to an under- standing with the American government there is no reason to suppose that the rights of Canada will be sacriced.- cuuuecwu w_u.u ule exporulllon 0! silver. Hon. Mr Bolton called attention to the inn- perfect returns respecting the exportation of silver. The expenses were in gross, no nunes were given and the return was ot no use. He also called attention as lo the neness of the silver, which rested apparently on an Order in Council of 1857. He did not see how an Order in i_0onnci1 could issue from this Government under the authority of the old Pnriiunen: of Cigndg. . n:_-r.- __ u - - .-', - Dun Fnou THE El-nc'rs or Ax ACCIDIXIT.-- We regret to record the death, the result of an accident, of Mr J.

But all such propositions have been nipped in the bud `by the proper declara- tion of the First Minister of the English Crown; and from this statement. as well as from the reaction which has followed the exposition of the delu- sions of the anti-colonial theorists, it is plain that Great Britain is not prepared to withdraw at the beck of the United States. The High Commission will be restricted in its sphere of action to the consideration of` s mode of settling the dierences relating to the war claims and sheries; but there will be no proposition admitted that would question for a moment the continuation of British Sovereignty in North America. The High Commission will in respect of the sheries consider the question of thc lieadlands, that is, the mode of measuring the customary limit of marine possession. The jurisdiction of a nation at sea extends by international consent three miles from shore, and by European practice the line is measured as existing three miles {mm the points of the promontories, and stretching across the mouths of included bays` Great Britain has abated from the position rst taken under the Fishery treaty of 1818 of excluding the Americans from the larger bays as the Bay of Fundy ; but they new demand that the smaller bays shall be thrown open to their shermen, and this is the question which is referred to the Commission.
