THE CANADIAN RECIPROCITY TREATY, Fee 2 SES ereial Opposition to American, Trade Intereste—A Remonstrance and Ministerial Reply. Lonpow, Nov. 26, 1874. A depofation tepresenting fAity-two Chambers” of Commerce waited on Lords Derby and Carnar- Von, the Foreign and Colonial Secretaries, to pre- sent objections to the proposed Canadian Reci- procity treaty with the United States, Mr. Sampson Lloyd said ander the proposed treaty the manufacturers of England were Placed at @ great disadvantage compared with those of the United States. The treaty was unfair ia principle, and would be exceedingly injurious in practical effect, He wished to submit as a gen- eral principle, that in any case where a British colony or dependency negotiated a treaty with a foreign country, England should not be placed in @ worse position than the foreign country, Lora Derby replied that the government fully agreed to this principle. Mr, Barron, representing Leeds, said he did not aesire to have a@ protective clause. He only wished Canada would not graut America anything more than England, E Mr. Bebrens, representing Bradford, stated there was @ party in Canada which was so power- ful that it might take action prejudicial to Eng. land if the treaty was not clearly worded to pre- ventit. He asked for the insertion of a clause providing that the United States shall never have the right toclaim any remission of duties not ac- corded to British commerce, Lord Derby then replied at length. He said:— “1 do not know that we ever received a deputation in whose views we so entirely concur. Your case is tn substance acceded to absolutely, en- tirely. We agree witr you on the main point, that in every negotiation of this kind 1s is the duty of the government to see that English trade and commerce are not placed at a disadvantage as compared with those of foreign countries. We should fail most grossly in our duty if for any consideration whatever we allowed the impo- aition of a aifferenttal duty against our own manufacturers. That never was our inten- tion. There 18 nothing im the proposed treaty, as we Understand it, leading to that conclusion. I learn that apprehensions gre entertained on the subject with some sur- prise. As regards the difticuity of defining the articles mentioned in the schedule with sumcient clearness something must be allowed for the good sense and faith of the two governments charged with the interpretation of the treaty. As for the danger of creating bad feeling between Engiand and Canada if any provistons untavorable to British trade are inserted in the | treaty, Iam firmly convinced no suct provisions | exist, and I agree that did they’ exist they would have created bad _ feeling. There is another side to the question. While protecting British trade we are bound to look at the peculiar position of Canada tn her relations to the United States. Weare bound to place no unnecessary obstacles*in the way of the freest commercial relations between those countries, If for any supposed intereat of our own we objected to a treaty establishing such frcedom itis perfectly ciear that discontent among loyal Canadians would result. Tnose at- tached to the imperial government, who, I believe, immensely preponderate, would lend strength to the party which looks forward to annexation to the United States. I apprehend tnat the views of those who suppose tuat this treaty establishes @ diffgrential duties in favor of America is that the duties on American goods were to be diminished at once, whereas the duties on the same class of English goods were only tobe | reduced in 6 series of years. You suy there is no guarantee of this in the treaty. The reason is that the commercial relation® of England and | Canada cannot be dealt with in a treaty with a foreign Power. They are relations o1 a purely do- mestic character. If any Canadian Parliament were hereafter to seek to impose differential du- ties the Governor General would be competent to reserve such an act for the consideration of the home government. I make the statement clearly and distinctly that there is nothing in this treaty which, considering the re- lations of the mother country with the colonies would make it possible for Canada to impose differential duties on England in favor of the United States. Lord Carnarvon spoke in similar terms, point- ing out that Canada had never shown any inten- tion of imposing duties discriminating against England.

Pardom of Convicts by the Governor of Massachusc(te—Liberty Granted to One Fifteen Year and Three Life Prisoners—Thrilling Scene on Presenta- tion of the Papers. Boston, Nov. 26, 1874, There are very few places in New England or in ‘the country where the Puritan festival of Thanks- giving ts more positively observed than in the Massavgusetts State Prison. It does not follow | from the\hearty manner in which the occaston ta Roticed that the inmates are specially thankful for being where they are,’ but the fact that the occasion ws set apart for the granting of sundry pardons to a few of the most meritortows con- spires to render tne occasion one of very special interest to ali converned, None of the prisoners are aware upon whom the lucky acts of executive clemency will fall until the names are read in the Presence of all of them, and hence the anxiety which all feel is more easily Imagined than de- scribed, Out of the 700 or 800 convicts the prize of liberty to-day was granted to tour of their num- ber, At hali-past ten in the morning all the prisoners were assembled in the chapel, and there were also gathered a few prominent citizens | of Boston and vicinity, who were present | at the invitation o: Warden Chamberlain, The tlon lor the day 0! grautude and praise, and then with a fervent prayer the devotional exercises of | the day were vonciuded. Subsequently u glee club from the Boston Musical Conservatory fur- nished some very choice gems of vocal and instrue mental music, Which was such a happy relief to the tediousness Of prison lite, that the convicts could not restrain themselves from irequent bursts of applause. Before announcing the pardons the War- den made a briei address to the men in his charge, complimenting them on their exemplary conduct during the year, and expressing regret that the boon Of liverty could nos fall upon more of them, The dull times, he said, had veen felt in the prison the same as outside, and the contracts for thelr labor now did not afford work for more than one- half of their number. On account of this be had estabilshed @ day school, selecting the instructors from among their number, and the experiment had been so eminently successful that he had no doubt put that hereafter the school would be con- tinued as a regular feature of the prison. His aiscipline, he said, nad always been strict and im- partifl, and by this system he nad iound that causes for punishment had been very perceptibiy | dumutished. Coming then to THE MATTER OF PARDONS, the Warden saia he presumed vhat was the mat- ter uppermost in the minds of the prisoners, and the convicts concurred by @ burst of applause, He sald that he had received an envelope from the Governor which contained some pardons, but he had not yet broken the seal and he did not know how many there were or who were the lucky ones to be berated by them. He then took the mys- terious and valuable package from his pocket, an | act which was the signal for the most profound and anxious silence. ‘The anxiety of a man on trial for his life and awaiting the verdict of the jury could not have been more tn- | tense and painiul than was manifested by every one ot the seven or eight hundred pris- oners, ‘Taking up ove of tne documents the War- den smiled and remarked, ‘Well, { like that name,” At this moment the suspense was indeed harrowing; but Mr, Chamberlain soon interrupted it by announcing the name of “Timothy Crontn,’” As the words fell trom his lips there went up a loud and simaltaneous shout of approval trom ail his fellow prisoners. Rising trom his seat, an old gray-haired man, he attempted to make his way irom the middie of the chapel to the forward platform, but the other convicts gathered around him in such numbeis that 1t was impossible tor him to proceed until the officers of the prison restored order. Cronin was sentenced trom Boston tor life, in 1862, for the crime of rape, and is now flity-two years of ee Doring his twelve years of prison life his wife has ever been a@ faithiul friend, and during the time bas earned suificient money to buy and | furnish & modest house. She was at the | prison to receive him when the pardon was g@ranced, The other pardons tell respectively upon Wiliam McGrath, Mighael Ryan and John Ryan, whose good luck was warmiy applauded by the prisoners who were less fortunate. McGrath, who 1s filty-two years of uge, was sentenced ior lite trom Worcester for the ciime of murder in the second degree, and he has only been imprisoned for six years. Ason and daughter were present to escort him nome to Thanksgiving dinner. Micnael Ryan, also sentenced ior lie, tor bighway robbery in Boston, had served eight years’ ‘time; and John Ryan, who was sentenced jor fitteen years for manslaughter in Boston, had served nine years of his time, in all these cases there were mitigating circumstances in the offences committed, and the conduct of the men during tmprisonment has been unexceptionable. Following these exercises and hour to mingle together in the yard, and after- ward they were furnished with a sumptuous Thanksgiving least. MASONIC.

Within a day or two past, Captain McElwain,of the Twenty-first precinct, has received information which led him to suspect that David OBrien, & blind man and, his son David, inmates of the house where Hyland was found, had some- thing to do with causing his death. Bernard Murray, and his son Jonn, occupying Tooms Ia the same building, on being questioned in regard to the matter, at first made statements which Went to show that the O’Briens had abused and badly beaten Hyland while he was arank in | Forty-secoud street, on Saturday night. ‘he Mur- rays afterwards contradicted their ssatements and pleaded entire ignorance about deceased having been beaten. In order that the case might be thoroughly investigated, Captain McElwain and his officers, on Wednesday night, arrested the two O’briens, and yesterday Coroner Eickhoff commuit- ted them to the Tombs. The Coroner also com- mitted the Murrays to the House of Detention.

There was no attempt to make the children understand what they had learned, much less to turn (t to aOy practical account.
