Agrecd 9. ‘THE PACIFIC RALLROAD BILL. Mr, Castasm, (dem.) of Ga, proceeded to show that the time has arrived when the great interests of this eountry demand that Cube should change hands. This he contenced, is demanded by eur social, as well a8 our agricultural, commercial, and political interests. He had no doubt this would be dissented from, as opposition was made to the acquisition of Lousiana, Florida, Catifor- nia, and the annexation of Texas, but the wisdon» of those measures is now generally acknowledged, having resulted in great benefits to our common coun: Ite mentioned the reasons why he should urge negotiations at the eurliest practicable period. The Africanization of that island will interfere with the domestic institations of the South. Spain must yield, and bravee and Kogland must submit. if Spain refuses a liberal compensation, she must take the consequences. It is our neeessit, which demaads that she shall meke the sacrifice, whic! will redound to our prosperity and sefety, and to the happivess of the human family. We should take mva- sures for the acquisition without delay, and call on Spain to name her terars. If she woul not do so, he would go for undisguiced open war, to take Cuba by force of arma. Mr. Lercumr, (dem.) of Va., moved to strike out the enacting clause of the Pacific Ruilroad bill, bat the mo- tion was disagreed to. Mr. Caxumigrs, (dem.) ef Mo., asked and obtained leave to print a speech in favor of granting lands for railroad purposes, and ceding the public lands to the States'in which they lie. ‘The committee rose, no one caring to speak to-day.

Mr. MePoveart, (dem.) of Cal., asked a further post- ponement of the Pacitic Nailroad vill until the drst Mon- day in July, in order to reecive reports of the surveys of the most practicable routes. Mr. Lang, (dem.) of Oregon, requested that several days of next week be set aside for the consideration of ‘Territorial business, ‘These propositions were severally objected to.

(row the Montreal Herald, J It appears that this treaty, w long talked of, and so often pressed by the British and Canadian governments upon the government of the United states, has at Inst become the interna- tional law of the two countries, so far as the signa- ture of the high contracting parties, without any collateral action of the United States ment, can make it so. We learn that the news reached town yesterday, that it was sigaed at Washington, on Monday, by the American Secre- ~ of State, on the part of his governme aud by Lord Elgin, on the part of the British government; Lord Elgin leaving the federal capital the following day for Portiand. It is now about six years since that indefatigable, though not always clear-minded, pu’ lic servant, Mr. W. H. Merritt, first brought this sabject befove our Legis- lature, the circumstances of the markets being then, as now, calenlated to Led onr producers, whether of produce or lumber, to send their wares to the South- ern markets. Mr. Merritt’s scheme was not met at the time with any great warmth by those ministers of the crown who have since pressed it energeti- cally to a conclusion. However, it was a popular measure, especialiy in are Canada, and one that, at worst, no one could object to; and ac- cordingly, in the following session, that of 1849, the first reciprocity act was passed in Canada. The act was very short and simple. It enacted :— ‘That whenever under any law of the United States the articles enumerated in the annexed schedule, being the rowth or production of this province, shall be admitted free of duty in the United States of Au lar articles, being the growth or produ United States, shall be admittes into t of duty, when imported direct from the United States. And the schedule enumerated the following arti- cl Grain, ond breadstuffs of all kinds, vegetables, frait, seeds, puimols, bides, wool, butter, cheose, tallow, hams, solted and freeh meats, ores of all kinds of metals’ ashes, timber, staves, woud, and lumber of all kinds. it was ot Orst believed that this legisiation on our part would be met by corresponding legialation at Yashington, and a measure was in fact brought in, and strenuously urged onwards by several members of Congress, especially by Mr. . Some of the accidents pertaining to legislative proccedings, es- pecially to American legislative proceedings, how- ever, intervened, and the bill was lost. In subee- quent sessions, partly from an opposition that had in the meantime grown up, and parily from the ex- citement cansed by the slavery question overriding all other subjects, reciprocity imade no progress in Congress. Pending these discussions, however, the question hed been taken possession of by the diplo- matists—we don’t mean Malcolm Cameron, nor Tifflany—but svch gentlemen as Daniel Webster, Abbott Lawrence, Lord Aberdeen, Sir. Edward Bul- | wer, and Mr. Crampton ; and the exertions of our negotiators were stimulated by repeated addresses moved by Mr. Merritt in the Provincial Parliament, ‘upon the British government eisher to obtain for us reciprocity, = to — , seems have been due to representations o! this Lind, added to the specific demand made b, the Eastern Provinces Ls od sagt of ows “4 | fisheries, which Jed Lord Stanley's governmen' | oe ee aa ceport ies, Telada: ai gen china, to aid the solution of the dilemma. ‘This was | the .Custe Chica Qision of Santa Anna’ gend Admiral Seymour, as a kind of Deus ex ma- 1862; but the possibility of connécting the fishery aa the reciprocity tueaiios had been early foreseen by the ‘American government, and had been debated Mr. Lafontaine when he was at Washington in | Te Its influence upon the general negotiation, | by his forces; he himself is # bitter enemy of nevertheless, now assumed a yery different color— | ump (a new con- pump ¢ OL: nization of the com- a OECD Bo iF insti ty, even Curing the di ion or resistance of authori Do OPevcrv Ute a great number cf the men were green recruits, and although four of the regimental officers had been swept intc the sea; three offieers at the same moment wholly mai‘ued by hurts, and two more on the sick list; ao that there remained bat five company officers, (part of the ti70e ental staff officers, (part one field officer for active t present year, ¥ .

If @ compreheusive plin of trade between the British: pe ae lies {itt the United States can be aco} will supersede mecessity of taking fisheries separately. v ‘sina We have no doubs, whatever, that this blow di- rected towards the fisheries was the tusning point of the negotiations; nevertheless, for some rea- sons, which we are unable to learn, we are inform- ed they were considered on the paré of the British negotiators to be at an end in the ining of the It pee be b they were re- opened more or less directly on accoumt of the re- presentations xiade by the Governor-General and bis Prime Minister atLondon ; and they have been svace put intoa tain which has terminated; as we have seen already, in the conclusion of # treaty, to’ which Lord Elgin has had the honor of affixing his names as the British representative, Coming now to wliut we believeare the terms of the treaty, we should premise that the Lower Pro- vinces, when reciprosity, from being merely a Ca- nadian, becomes a British Americaa idea, demand- ed, if their fishery rights were seerificed to the general good, that some articles should be added to the list in the above quoted schedule for their special advantage, since tite export articles included in that list were of more particular importance to Ganada than to them. Fish and coal came com- pletely within the general idea of reciprocity in raw materials, and these they asked to have ealded. On the other hand, the South required sugar, tobacco, cotton and rice included in the list, as coming also within this broad category. The schedule agreed tpon, we have reason to belisve, meets the views of hath parties, except that sugar is not in the list. | The tobacco is of course raw tobacco, and its ad- mission free of duty will naturally, to a certain exten, act as a bounty to our manufacturers of that The maritime provinces also strongly urged olonial ships should be adraitted to sale in the States free of duty; but this clearly brought the ne- gotiations on an entirely new domain, and they had to yleld the point, which, if carried, would have given ay immense innportance to a highly interest- ing braneh of provincial induatry, but which would have worked 1 complete revolution in the whole ar- rangements of the American marine, and so perhaps have destroyed the treaty in the Senate, where it has still tw be ratitied. “In addition to the stipu- lations already mentioned, American citizens will, we believe, obtain the free navigation.of the St. John and the St. Lawrence rivers—not, of course, as a permanent right, but pending the continu- ance of the treaty—and British subjects will be secured In the free navigation of Lake Micl l= where we olaim the right to navigate, but that claim might probably have been disputed. Al- though the federal government has no control.over State cunals, and probably has entered into no ex- press engagement respecting them, we. believe it has pledged itself to remove every obstacle, which. vests with itself, to the free use of all State cauals by provincial vessels. We may, therefore, expect, as the States which are the proprietors of these ca- nals are interested in doing the largest possible amount of business upon them, that, they will be de free to our shipowners and forwarders. Such, ve reason to believe, is, in substance, the scope ust of course, like all treaties, be ate before it becomes operative; and, we imagine, must be accompanied by some cor- responding legislation by both branches of Congress. it is probable, however, that the administration of President Pierce kuew tolerably well the ground be- fore they completed the treat; Having always been Savorsnia to the policy of re- ciprocity, we rejoice heartily at this large step taken towards its final success. “At the same tine, we have no doubt that many persons are Masposed to expect from it greater advantages than will, in:fact, | reache | the consumer who pays the govern- | | cities have, however, a vast indirect too, what is come available, without let or hindrance of kind, to the shipping of the south, as well rica, then simi. | the north, side of the waters above them. fon of the said | s province free | be realized.

Bat the very sume political economist will agree with you at once inthe opinion, that without that fiscal ad- dition to the price of the cloth at Madrid, the trade between Yorkshire, Barcelona and Cadiz, would be augmented a hundred fold.
