THE TREATY IN CANADA, the Fisheries”, to Americans, i Speech of Sit John Ay PRodonata on the Treaty as Touching the Kanucks—The New Domin- ion a Source of Weakness to England. Opening = ca Orrawa, Canada, May 4, 1872, Last night, Sir John A. Macdonald, Esq., Premier of the Dominion government and one of the Joint High Commiesioners, introduced a bill to give effect to certain clauses of the Treaty of Washington. He said he had originally intended merely to suspend the fishing laws which prevent Americans from ishing in our waters during the coming season. As, however, the American government had acted on afl the claims, the Canadian government had de- cided to follow the same course. The first clause of the bill was to suspend the present fishery laws, which prohibit Americans from fishing in Canadian waters. ‘The second elause of the bill provided that during the existence of the treaty, fish and fish oil, with the exception of such products of the inland lakes, shall be admitted from the United States free of duty. “ The third clanse provided for the continuance of fhe bonding system during the operation of the treaty. ~ SR See eraser. The fourth clanse provided that the right of transhipment, contatned in the thirteenth clause of the treaty, shall be insured to citizens of the United States during.the existence of the treaty, ‘The last clause provides that the act shall go into etfect on the issuance by the government of an order in Council, This bilt peouens allthe subjects of the treaty, which the Canadian Parliament had power to act upon, before the House. The treaty had been largely discussed In the public press, and his posi- tion with reference to It had been the subject of comment. No matter what might be the con- sequences, this PARLIAMENT HAD THE RIGHT TO REJECT clauses of the treaty affecting Canada if they pleased. If such right did not exist he would have had no right to sign the treaty as Plenipotentiary. Sir John spoke tor over five hours, and his speech reviewed the whole proceedings of the Commission, strongly urging the House to assent to the bill, con- tending that the treaty as a whole was favorable to Janada, He stated that it was a matter of surprise that the portion of the treaty which they supposed would prove most prejudicial to the maritime provinces was the most favorably regarded by the People tt affected most nearly. All our fishreies were not open to Americans. We still reserve our in-shore fisheries, and on the Pa- cific coast they were as exhaustiess and, he be- lieved, as priceless as the fisheries of Hudson Bay. Under the treaty we have ACCESS TO THE MARKETS OF THE UNITED STATES, with the products of those fisheries, while the American fishermen were excluded from Canada, ‘Therefore we have the best of the bargain in this Tespect, As to yielding the privilege of the navi- gation of the St. Lawrence River no territorial rights were yielded. The management of the tolls and regulations still belong to Canada, the only stipulation made in the treaty being that the United States may USE THE ST. LAWRENCE onas free terms as Canadian subjects for the pur- pose of commerce, and commerce only. As to the St. Clair Flats Canal, it was located where it is by United States engi rs in good faith believing that it was on Amer! erritory. While the Commis- sioners were discussing the question the point was submitted that the map did not agree with the engineer’s report. By looking at the clause of the treaty relating to it it appeared that it was no matter whether the canal was partly on Canadian territory or not, as according to the treaty it was to be used for all time on equal terms ty ren of the people of the United States and of Janada. IN REGARD TO FENIAN RAIDS it was admitted that Canada was wronged on that point. England admitted it, and believed that due exertion and due vigilance had not been exercised by the American government to break up Fenian organizations, who were preparing for an invasion of our country, to slay our people and destroy our property. Therefore it was a fit thing for Canada to press their claims for damages through Engiand, and they had done so. In the correspondence and instructions to the Commons it was stated that Canada had been invited to send a statement of her claims to England, but they hdd not done so, and this he had seen mentioned in certain newspapers as an instance of Canadian neglect. He said it was notso. It was AN INSTANCE OF CANADIAN CAUTION. The Canadiun government felt, in pressing for claims, that not only they, but every private per- son who has suffered from Fenian raids, had aright to compensation; bnt Canada had no desire to limit or strictly define these claims, What was wanted was an admission of principle, after which the government could file all right and reason- able claims for damages. The United States took ground that the Fenian claims were not in- cluded in the correspondence between thé govern- ments, and he could not but feel that there was a great weight in the argument of the British Com- missioners. He felt justified in pressing the ques- tion, but the American Commissioners declined to ask from their government any fresh Instructions | or any enlargement of the treaty. ENGLAND HAD ASSUMED THE RESPONSIBILITY of the error committed. Respecting the claims, England had refused to demand compensation from the Americans, and was wise in so doing, It would ave entailed an investigation and arbitration be- ween Ragland and the Unitet States of an un- eel gharncler, That Would create dimeuities be- ween the two countries, They therefore suggested an arrangement that would be an a wy Canada, that would be of more benefil to us than any money compensation we could expect, which was . A GUARANTEE FOR TAR PACIFIC RAILROAD. The honorable gentleman concluded by saying: “Tt had been stated that England sacrificed the in- terests of Canada, Ifshe had done so, what sacri- fices had she not made herself for the sake of peace? Hada she not made herself liable for millions of dol- lars, and done what a great nation must have felt xkeenly—made an apology for what she had done ? But tor whose sake had she done this? Principally for the sake of Canada, which was to her A SOURCE OF WEAKNESS, as she herseif was impregnable, while she could at- tack the United States on a thousand points, If we were to drive a hard bargain as a portion of the em- pire we would not join tn the sacrifice which Eng- Jand made for us and for the sake of peace. Wo should be unworthy of the position which we hope to attain, as the right arm of England's power, ‘This treaty rendered war with the United States almost an impossibility, as any question could be treated as. the Alabama question and settled by arbitra- ; tion.” Sir John’s speech was received with loud and prolonged appliuse, After a few remarks from Mr. Mackenzie, the bil was read a first time, Tucsday being set eown for the second reading. THE WOOSTER STREET FIRE. Recommendation by the Coroner's Jury. Coroner Young yesterday held inqnests in the cases of James and John McSherry (brothers), tite tailors who were burned to death during the fire’at Nos. 24 and 26 Wooster street, on Saturday eveniig, | the 27th ult., as previously reported in the HERALD. Several persons employed iu the tailoring establish. menton the filth floor of the above named premises were examined, but it was impossible to learn the origin of the fire, which occurred on the floor below, where the deceased were employed. ‘The fire sud- denly burst through the floor, and the brothers MeSherry, being partially overcome by the heat and amoke, Were unable to flee down the siairway or to reach the roof throngh the scuttle. In their ver- dict of death from burns the jury “recommend | that the proper authorities enact a law compelling the erection of tire escapes on workshops and | Inanulactorics.”” It was rumored that the unfortunate brothers had money in one of our savings institutions, but if | so the fact cannot be discovered.

Frederick Denison Maurice, Professor of “Moral Philosophy in the University of Cambridge, England, in the year 1860, anda prolific and volu- minous writer on theological and philosophical sub- jects, has just died near the seat of his labors in Europe. He was 67 years of age. The immediate cause of his death was an attack of pleurisy, from which a previously enfeebled state of health left him no hope ofrallying. Asis generally the case with those who are pre-eminently thinkers rather than actors, the course of Mr. Maurice’s life was comparatively uneventfal. He wasthe son of a Unitarian minister, and born in 1805, At an early age he entered the University of Cambridge, where he came the friend of John Sterling, an intimacy which was afterwards more closely cemented from the fact of the friends marrying two sisters, Mr. Maurice did not graduate at Cambridge, as the existing state of his theological opinions pre- vented hfs subscription, and consequently cut him of from the hope of a fellowship; but he subse- quently modified those opinions, entered at Exeter College, Oxford, and took his Bachelor’s degree in the year 1831, He became atterwards chaplain at Lincotn’s fn and Hoban hoe Professor at King’s College, at which latter institution he came into collision with the council on the vexed question of eternal punishment, about which, as a matter left ‘undéfined in the Established Church, he took the more liberal view. Considerable acrimony was ex- cited by the removal of Mr. Maurice from his pro- fessorship; but, as far as he himself was concerned, the only resoit was his work- tog, in hace ann obscurity, as incumbent of St. Peter's, Vere street, London, where, Sunday after Sunday, a congregation who sympathized with his views gathered to hear his eloquent and fearless enunciation of them. He also applied his energies to the education of the working classes and of ladies, the Workingmen's College, in Great Orniond street, and Queen’s College for Ladies, in Harley street, London, being the two institutions to which he devoted himself more especially, In the year 1866 the University of Cambridge braved pudite prejudice by electing Mr. Maurice to the Chair of Moral Philosophy, and it is creditable to popular opinion that ‘the appointment was re- ceived with a tacit verdict of approval, thongh the faculty was one where his peculiar opinions might have been expected to come into prommence, He was also elected honorary M. A. of the University in the foliowing yeer; and since that time he has been again asiient power in the world, until the fact of his somewhat sudden death brings his name once more prominently forward, ond makes men aware that 4 really great man has gone from our midst, Tt un be questioned whether any one of his contemporaries did more to in the religions thought of the generation in w lot was cast.
